U. S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San

Care District officials to build afford-
able housing into their plans for a

In a letter sent to the district board of
directors earlier this month, the con-

ration and input on designs for the
project planned near Mills-Peninsula

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
A woman whose body was found on

Three suspects sought in
weekend home invasion robbery
San Mateo County sheriff’s deputies are
seeking three men who broke into a
Millbrae home, tied up the residents inside
and then stole valuables over the weekend.
Deputies responded at 12:01 a.m. Sunday
to a report of a home invasion robbery that
had just occurred at a residence on Toyon
Drive.
Three men wearing ski masks and armed
with handguns entered the home and con-
fronted the victims, then tied them up and
demanded valuables, according to the
Sheriff’s Office.
The suspects took cash, ammunition,
tobacco and two safes. One of the victims
was struck in her head and suffered injuries,
sheriff’s officials said.
The suspects then fled in a U-Haul truck
prior to the deputies’ arrival and they
remain at large, according to the Sheriff’s
Office.
Investigators believe the home was spe-
cially targeted in the robbery. Anyone with
information about the case is encouraged to
contact Detective Cosens at (650) 363-

High-speed rail sees temporary leadership change
Artist’s rendering of California’s high-speed rail.
LOCAL/STATE THE DAILY JOURNAL
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — California’s project to build a high-
speed train from Los Angeles to San Francisco is temporar-
ily getting new leadership.
Chief Executive Officer Brian Kelly is taking an extended
leave of absence for unexpected medical reasons, State
transportation officials said Monday. Chief Operating
Officer Joe Hedges and Chief Deputy Director Pam
Mizukami will assume leadership of the project. Both were
appointed to their jobs in January by Gov. Jerry Brown.
Hedges previously led a $3 billion project to bore a 1.7-
mile long tunnel underneath Seattle to carry two stories of
traffic. Mizukami was deputy director of administrative
services at the state Department of Motor Vehicles.
The project is now expected to cost about $77 billion and
be completed by 2033. It has faced significant cost over-
runs and setbacks and currently does not have enough
money to complete the first phase connecting the Central
Valley to the Bay Area.
Brown, whose term ends in January, has been a major
advocate for the project. California’s next governor may
not be as friendly toward it. Republican John Cox says he
would try to kill the project. Democratic Lt. Gov Gavin
Newsom said he supports it, but he has raised concerns
about its financing.
Kelly has acknowledged the project’s setbacks but
remains committed to seeing it built.
Construction is underway in the Central Valley.
Kelly was brought on to lead the project in January after
serving as head of the state’s transportation department.
Rail board chairman Dan Richards and state transporta-
tion Secretary Brian Annis did not provide specific details
about Kelly’s health issue in a Monday email to staff. But
they said he is stable and “receiving the medical treatment
necessary for recovery.”

Stanford professor launches
PAC to target MeToo politicians
STANFORD — A Stanford University law school profes-
sor who spearheaded a California judge’s recall over his
handling of a sexual assault case is launching a political
action committee to target politicians who commit or
ignore sexual misconduct.
The Mercury News reports Michele Dauber on Monday
launched a PAC to target politicians across the country who
don’t take violence against women seriously or who have
committed sexual misconduct themselves.
The Enough is Enough Voter Project will aim to block
lower-level politicians from ascending to higher office.
Dauber led a campaign that ended with the ouster by vot-
ers of Judge Aaron Persky, who gave a six-month sentence
to former Stanford swimmer Brock Turner. Turner was con-
victed by a jury of sexually assaulting an unconscious,
intoxicated woman outside a fraternity party on the
Stanford campus.

Trump administration officials say waiving the tougher fuel efficiency requirements would make vehicles more affordable,
which would get safer cars into consumers’ hands more quickly.
California urges Trump to drop
plan for weaker fuel standard
By Sudhin Thanawala
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FRESNO — California officials
demanded Monday that the Trump
administration back off a plan to weak-
en national fuel economy standards
aimed at reducing car emissions and
saving people money at the pump, say-
ing the proposed rollback would dam-
age people’s health and exacerbate cli-
mate change.
Looming over the administration’s
proposal is the possibility that the
state, which has become a key leader on
climate change as Trump has moved to
dismantle Obama-era environmental
rules, could set its own separate fuel
standard that could roil the auto indus-
try. That’s a change the federal govern-
ment is trying to block.
“California will take whatever
actions are needed to protect our people
and follow the law,” Mary Nichols,
chairwoman of the California Air
Resources Board, testified at a hearing
with federal officials in a region of cen-
tral California that has some of the
nation’s worst air pollution.

“Stopping us from protecting our
people, our jobs and economy or our
planet is like trying to stop a mother
from protecting her child,” he said.
The proposal announced in August by
President Donald Trump’s administra-
tion would freeze U.S. mileage stan-
dards at levels mandated by former
President Barack Obama for 2020. The
standard is the number of miles per gal-
lon of gas that a vehicle must provide.
Under the deal finalized under Obama,
the standard would rise to 36 miles per
gallon by 2025, 10 miles per gallon
higher than the current requirement.

waiving the tougher fuel efficiency
requirements would make vehicles more
affordable, which would get safer cars
into consumers’ hands more quickly. A
major auto industry trade group says it
supports annual increases in fuel effi-
ciency but won’t say by how much.
Customers aren’t buying more effi-
cient vehicles, Steve Douglas, senior
director of energy and environment for
the Alliance of Automobile
Manufacturers, said in testimony pre-
pared for the hearing. The group repre-
sents General Motors, Ford, Fiat
Chrysler, Volkswagen, BMW and other
automakers.
“No one wins if our customers are not
buying the new highly efficient prod-
ucts offered in our showrooms,” the
written testimony said. “The standards
must account for consumer willingness
and ability to pay for newer technolo-
gies in order for all the benefits of new
vehicles to be realized.”
Automakers are unanimous in favor-
ing one standard for the whole country
so they don’t have to design two vehi-
cles, one for California and the states
that follow its requirements and another
for the rest of the nation.

Indicted congressman
makes court appearance before midterms
SAN DIEGO — The Democratic opponent of California’s
Republican Rep. Duncan Hunter released a new TV ad
Monday aimed at conservative voters in
a deeply red district as the indicted con-
gressman made his last court appearance
before midterm elections.
The narrator of the 30-second spot by
Ammar Campa-Najjar’s campaign says
the Democrat will put “country over
party.” It contends Hunter blamed his
wife for spending donor money on fami-
Duncan Hunter ly vacations and “drunken parties.”
The couple has pleaded not guilty to
charges of misusing more than $250,000 in campaign
funds. Hunter told Fox News in August that his campaign
made mistakes and his wife was his campaign manager.
The couple appeared Monday before a federal judge in San
Diego. The judge set a Dec. 3 status hearing after defense
attorneys told him the prosecution had handed over a large
amount of material from the 2 1/2 -yearlong investigation,
including 12,000 pages of FBI reports.
The congressman is not due now back in court until after
the elections.
Hunter and his wife arrived and left the court separately
Monday as they have done since the 47-page grand jury
indictment was handed down in August.
Trump lawyers seek
to toss Stormy Daniels’ lawsuit
LOS ANGELES — Lawyers for President Donald Trump are
going to court Monday to urge a judge to toss out porn
actress Stormy Daniels’ lawsuit over a
hush-money agreement following their
alleged affair.
Trump’s lawyers say the deal that paid
Daniels $130, 000 to keep quiet was
invalid and they won’t sue her for break-
ing it.
Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie
Clifford, has said she had sex once with
Stormy Daniels Trump in 2006 and carried on a friend-
ship with him for about a year.
She sued Trump and his former personal lawyer, Michael
Cohen, who negotiated the deal, so she could speak pub-
licly about the sexual tryst without fear of reprisal. Cohen
had threatened to sue her for $20 million.
Daniels said the agreement should be invalidated because
Cohen signed it, but Trump did not do so.
PAC targets politicians it
says act against women’s interest
The Stanford law professor who led the successful recall
of a California judge over his handling of a sexual assault
case is now broadening her fight by targeting politicians.
Professor Michele Dauber on Monday announced a new
political action committee, the Enough is Enough Voter
Project. It will target candidates for state legislature or
Congress who have been accused of sexual misconduct or
who the group believes have a poor voting record on issues
related to sexual harassment and violence against women.

Rosenstein still has
his job, at least till
Trump showdown
By Zeke Miller and Eric Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — After a long
weekend spent wondering if he
should resign or would be fired,
Deputy Attorney General Rod
Rosenstein still has his job — for
now.
President Donald Trump gave
Rosenstein a three-day reprieve
pending their face-to-face White
House showdown on Thursday.
That’s when the man who oversees
the Trump-Russia investigation
will respond to reports that he had
discussed secretly recording the
president and possibly using con-
stitutional procedures to remove
him from office.
The revelation that Rosenstein
last year had broached the idea of
taping the president touched off a
dramatic weekend of conversa-
tions with the White House in
which he offered to one official to
resign and confided to another that
he was considering doing so,
according to two people familiar
with the discussions who spoke
on condition of anonymity to dis-
cuss private conversations.
Even as he took issue with the
reports, Rosenstein arrived at the
White House on Monday expect-
ing to be fired, according to

Ten days after Hurricane Florence,

fresh chaos strikes in South Carolina
By Jeffery Collins
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
YAUHANNAH, S.C. — More than a week
ago, pastor Willie Lowrimore and some of
his congregants stacked sandbags around
their South Carolina church to protect it
from the fury of Hurricane Florence.
They moved the pews to higher ground
and watched anxiously for days as the near-
ly black, reeking water from the swollen
Waccamaw River rose, even though the hur-
ricane was long gone. Finally, before dawn
Monday, the water seeped around and over
the sandbags, flooding the sanctuary.
“I’m going to go one day at a time,”
Lowrimore said as he sat in a rocking chair
listening to the river rush by, ruining the
church he built almost 20 years ago. “Put it
in the Lord’s hands. My hands aren’t big
enough.”
Ten days after Florence came ashore, the
storm caused fresh chaos Monday in
Yauhannah and elsewhere across South
Carolina, where rivers kept rising and thou-
sands more people were told to be ready to
evacuate.
Authorities urged up to 8,000 people in
Georgetown County, on the South Carolina
coast, to be prepared to flee from potential
flood zones. A “record event” of up to 10

first time since record keeping began before
the American Revolution.
“We are still getting phone calls from
people who don’t know what is going on,”
said Georgetown County Emergency
Management Director Sam Hodge.
In North Carolina, where Florence made
landfall, Gov. Roy Cooper said the state
was moving from an emergency response
mode to full-time recovery from the storm.
“Florence is gone, but the storm’s devas-
tation is still with us,” Cooper said at a
news conference.
About 400 roads across the state remained
closed due to the storm that has claimed at
least 46 lives since slamming into the coast
Sept. 14.
But there was some good news: Interstate
95 was reopened to all traffic Sunday night
for the first time since the floods, and
Cooper announced Monday that a previous-
ly closed portion of Interstate 40 had
reopened sooner than expected.
Power outages and the number of people
in shelters were also declining. Around
5,000 people were without power, down
from a peak of about 800,000. About 2,200
people were in shelters, compared with a
high of around 20,000, the governor said.
On Monday, Republican education leaders
in North Carolina announced planned legis-
lation to assure teachers at still-shuttered
schools they will get paid without using
vacation time. The proposal was part of
broader disaster funding that the General
Assembly will consider in an anticipated
special session.

Dallas police officer accused in neighbor’s death fired

By Ryan Tarinelli

DALLAS — A white Dallas police officer
who fatally shot her black neighbor inside
his own apartment was fired Monday, the
same day the man was being buried in his

Mandela’s widow urges world:
Put egos aside, end violence
By Edith M. Lederer and Jennifer Peltz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UNITED NATIONS — Nelson Mandela’s
widow challenged world leaders celebrating
his life on Monday to put their egos and par-
tisan politics aside and honor his legacy by
ending the “senseless violence” plaguing
too much of the world.
“History will judge you should you stag-
nate too long in inaction,” Graca Machel
told a U.N. “peace summit” commemorating
the 100th anniversary of Mandela’s birth.
“Humankind will hold you accountable
should you allow suffering to continue on
your watch.”
With peace a scarce commodity, Machel’s
challenge was echoed by U.N. Secretary-
General Antonio Guterres and other leaders
who acknowledged the world is far from
achieving Mandela’s ideals which also
include human rights and global coopera-
tion.
“Today, with human rights under growing
pressure around the world, we would be well
served by reflecting on the example of this
outstanding man,” Guterres said. “We need
to face the forces that threaten us with the
wisdom, courage and fortitude that Nelson
Mandela embodied.”
The tributes to Mandela began with a rare
U.N. honor — the unveiling of a $1.8 mil-
lion statue of the South African anti-
apartheid campaigner who became the
world’s most famous political prisoner,
played a key role in ending white-minority
rule, and became president in the country’s
first democratic election. The statue is a gift
to the United Nations from South Africa.
Side effect of trafficking
law: More street prostitution?
NEW YORK — Recent crackdowns target-
ing the sex-for-hire industry have reduced
the number of commercial ads on the inter-
net and helped fight online trafficking. But
activists and police say the efforts may have
had unintended consequences — landing
women and girls back on the streets, where
dangers also lurk.
The impact was almost immediate after the
seizure of Backpage.com by the federal gov-
ernment in April and President Donald
Trump’s signature the same month on the

Graca Machel, member of the Elders speaks at
the Nelson Mandela Peace Summit during
the 73rd United Nations General Assembly.
His arms are outstretched in the statue, as
if to embrace people everywhere. But after
the cover was pulled off, South African
President Cyril Ramaphosa, with help from
Guterres, placed a small South African flag
in his lapel.
The daylong summit, with nearly 160
scheduled speakers, set the stage for
Tuesday’s opening of the General
Assembly’s annual meeting of world lead-
ers, where conflicts from Syria to South
Sudan, rising unilateralism, and tackling a
warming planet and growing inequality are
among issues expected to be in the spot-
light.

The number of sex ads online plummeted

But sex workers and their advocates say
another casualty was the income of escorts
who advertised online, along with the abili-
ty to vet clients better than on the street.

‘Rocket Man’ to
‘Terrific’: Trump
lauds Kim at U.N.
By Jonathan Lemire and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UNITED NATIONS — President Donald
Trump raised hopes at the United Nations on
Monday that a second meeting with North
Korea’s Kim Jong Un could occur “quite
soon,” striking a conciliatory tone one year
after he used his debut at the U.N. to deride
the autocrat as “Little Rocket Man” and
threaten to “totally destroy North Korea.”
Trump praised Kim as “very open” and
“terrific, ” despite the glacial pace of
progress toward denuclearization on the
Korean Peninsula.
U.S. officials defended Trump’s strategy
of engagement with the erstwhile pariah
state as the president embarked on a week of
meetings with world leaders. The softer tone
toward North Korea — once threatened with
“fire and fury” — has been replaced by rosy
optimism, with Trump reserving tough rhet-
oric for another potential nuclear aspirant
and strategic foe: Iran.
“It was a different world,” Trump said
Monday of his one-time moniker for the

North Korean leader. “That was a dangerous
time. This is one year later, a much different
time.”
Trump began his second visit to the U.N.
with a brief meeting on the global drug trade
before sitting down with South Korean
President Moon Jae-in, who delivered a per-
sonal message to Trump from Kim after their
inter-Korean talks last week in Pyongyang.
“You are the only person who can solve
this problem,” Moon said to Trump, relay-
ing Kim’s words.
Trump, for his part, said: “We are in no
rush. We are in no hurry” to bring about a
nuclear agreement. U.S. officials are insist-
ing that economic sanctions remain in
place against the North until it eliminates
its nuclear program.
Trump said Secretary of State Mike
Pompeo has been tasked with bringing
about the second summit, despite an assess-
ment by U.S. officials that the North has
not followed through on its commitments
to take steps toward denuclearization.
Pompeo defended Trump’s decision to seek
another meeting despite the slow progress.

Russia to provide Syria with

new S-300 air defense missiles By Nataliya Vasilyeva
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSCOW — Russia announced
Monday it will supply Syria’s gov-
ernment with sophisticated S-300
air defense systems after last week’s
downing of a Russian plane by
Syria forces responding to an
Israeli air strike, a friendly fire inci-
dent that stoked regional tensions.
The Russian Il-20 military recon-
naissance aircraft was downed by
Syrian air defenses that mistook it
for an Israeli aircraft, killing all 15
people on board. Russia laid the
blame on Israel, saying Israeli
fighter jets had pushed the plane
into Syria’s line of fire, an account
denied by the Israeli military.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei
Shoigu announced that the S-300
missile defense systems will be
delivered to Damascus within two
weeks. Earlier in the war, Russia
suspended a supply of S-300s,
which Israel feared Syria could use
against it.
Shoigu went on television to say

launch attacks off Syria’s coast like
the Israeli strike that resulted in the
Russian plane’s downing.
“We are convinced that these
measures will calm down some hot-
heads and keep them from careless
actions which pose a threat to our
troops,” he said.
In its readout of the call with
Putin, Netanyahu’s office said the
Israeli prime minister “stressed
once again that the responsibility
for the unfortunate incident lay on
the Syrian army that shot it down
and on Iran, whose aggression is
destabilizing the region.”
In an apparent reference to the S-
300, the statement said “transfer-
ring advanced weapons to irrespon-
sible hands will increase the dan-
gers in the region,” adding that
Israel will “continue to defend its
security and interests.”
The Israeli military has denied
responsibility for the downing of
the Russian jet. In a statement
Sunday, it said the hotline worked
as it was supposed to, that Israeli
jets did not hide behind other air-
craft and that they were in Israeli
airspace when the Russian plane
was downed.
U.S. national security adviser

U.S. warns Russia over missile defense for Syria
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The Trump
administration is warning Russia
that supplying Syria with an
advanced missile defense system
would be a “major mistake” and
should be reconsidered. It also
says U.S. forces will not leave
Syria until Iran leaves.
National security adviser John
Bolton said Monday that delivery
of the Russian S-300 would be a
“significant escalation” in
already high tensions in the
region and Secretary of State
Mike Pompeo said he would raise
the matter this week with his
Russian counterpart Sergey
Lavrov at the U. N. General
Assembly.
“We think introducing the S-
300s to the Syrian government
would be a significant escalation
by the Russians and something
that we hope, if these press
reports are accurate, they would
reconsider,” Bolton said.
Russia announced earlier
Monday that it would give Syria’s
government more modern, S-300
missile defense systems after last
week’s downing of a Russian
plane by Syria in a friendly fire
incident. The military’s recon-
naissance Il-20 was shot down by
the Syrian government missile
defense systems responding to an
Israeli airstrike. Russia laid the
blame on Israel, saying Israeli
fighter jets had pushed the plane
into Syria’s line of fire.
Shortly after his statement, Putin
got a call from Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and
told him that the Russian move was
“aimed primarily at fending off any
potential threat to the lives of
Russian servicemen,” according to
a readout of the call issued by the
Kremlin.
Shoigu announced that Russia
would equip Syrian air defenses
with a new automated control sys-
tem to enhance its efficiency and
help identify Russian aircraft. He
said the Russian military will start
using electronic countermeasures to
jam any aircraft that would try to
John Bolton meanwhile said
Monday that delivery of the
Russian S-300 would be a “signifi-
cant escalation” in already high
tensions in the region, and
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo
said he would raise the matter this
week with his Russian counterpart
Sergey Lavrov at the U.N. General
Assembly.
“We think introducing the S-
300s to the Syrian government
would be a significant escalation
by the Russians and something that
we hope, if these press reports are
accurate, they would reconsider,”
Bolton said.

Global stocks dip on report China

calls off trade talks with the U.S.
By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Global stocks
took small losses Monday after
China reportedly pulled out of
trade talks with the U.S. Industrial
companies and banks suffered
some of the worst declines among
American stocks.
The U.S. and China officially
began taxing larger amounts of
each other’s goods Monday, and
the Wall Street Journal reported
that China pulled out of talks that
could have led to a new round of
negotiations to end the trade war.
The U.S. is now taxing another
$200 billion in Chinese imports
at a rate of 10 percent, and China
added taxes of 5 to 10 percent on
$60 billion in U. S. products.
Among industrial companies,
which are considered especially
vulnerable to tariffs, General
Electric dropped 3. 5 percent,
while 3M declined 1.3 percent.
Gains in other sectors helped
offset some of the trade-related
selling, leaving U. S. indexes
only slightly lower.
Oil prices jumped after OPEC
decided not to produce more oil
and gave a boost to shares of oil
majors such as Exxon and
Chevron. Technology and health
care companies also rose.
The U. S. -China trade dispute
contributed to some volatile trad-
ing sessions earlier this year.
Lately, investors have taken
things in stride. The S&P 500 has-
n’t risen or fallen 1 percent in a
day since late June.
“The market’s been remarkably
resilient over the last couple of
months while trade tensions were
heating up,” said Terry Sandven,
chief equity strategist at U. S.
Bank Wealth Management.
Sandven said the trade spat will
endure past the midterm elections
in November, but stocks are likely
to keep rising because of strong

Beijing accuses White House of bullying as new U.S. tariffs take effect
By Joe McDonald
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIJING — China and the United
States imposed new tariff hikes on
each other’s goods Monday and
Beijing accused Washington of
bullying, giving no sign of com-
promise in an intensifying battle
over technology that is weighing
on global economic growth.
U.S. regulators went ahead with a
planned 10 percent tax on a $200
billion list of 5,745 Chinese
imports including bicycles and fur-
niture. China’s customs agency
said it responded at noon by begin-
ning to collect taxes of 5 or 10 per-
cent on a $60 billion list of 5,207
American goods, from honey to
industrial chemicals.
The conflict stems from U.S.
President Donald Trump’s com-
plaints Beijing steals or pressures
foreign companies to hand over
technology.
American officials say
Chinese plans for state-led
development of global competi-
tors in robotics and other tech-
nologies violate its market-
opening obligations and might
erode U. S. industrial leadership.
China’s leaders offered to narrow
their politically sensitive, multi-
billion-dollar trade surplus with the
United States by purchasing more
natural gas and other American
exports. But they have rejected
pressure to change industry plans
the communist leadership sees as a
path to prosperity and global influ-
ence.
Monday’s tariff hike follows a
report by The Wall Street Journal
that Chinese officials pulled out of
a meeting to discuss possible talks
proposed by Washington. The
Chinese government had given no
public indication whether it would
accept the invitation.
Envoys last met Aug. 22 in
Washington but reported no
progress.
With no settlement in sight,
forecasters say the conflict
between the two biggest
economies could trim global
growth through 2020.
On Monday, the ratings agency
Fitch cut its forecasts for next
year’s Chinese and global eco-
nomic growth by 0.1 percentage
points to 6.1 percent and 3.1 per-
cent, respectively.
“The trade war is now a reality,”
said Fitch’s chief economist, Brian
Coulton, in a report. “The down-
side risks to our global growth
forecasts have also increased.”
Earlier, the two sides imposed 25
percent penalties on $34 billion of
each other’s goods in July and
another $16 billion in August.
Business groups say American
companies also report Chinese
regulators are starting to disrupt
their operations through slower
customs clearance and more envi-
ronmental and other inspections.

Federal Reserve’s third hike this year

expected despite rising trade risks
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Federal Reserve is
set this week to raise interest rates for a
third time this year to prevent the economy
from growing too fast. But with President
Donald Trump’s trade fights posing a risk to
the U.S. economy, the Fed may soon be
ready to slow its hikes.
Many analysts expect the economy to
weaken next year, in part from the effects of
the conflicts Trump has pursued with China,
Canada, Europe and other trading partners.
The tariffs and counter-tariffs that have been
imposed on imports and exports is having
the effect of raising prices for key goods and
supplies and potentially slowing growth.
An economic slowdown would likely lead
the Fed to throttle back on its rate increases
to avoid stifling growth. In that scenario, it
might raise rates only twice in 2019 and
then retreat to the sidelines to see how the
economy fares.
Compounding the effects of the tariffs and
retaliatory tariffs resulting from Trump’s
trade war, other factors could slow growth
next year.
The benefits of tax cuts that took effect
this year, along with increased government
spending, for example, are widely expected
to fade.

SiriusXM presses play Business brief

on deal with Pandora Media
NEW YORK — Subscription radio compa-
ny SiriusXM says it’s buying music stream-
ing service Pandora Media Inc. in a deal val-
ued at about $3.5 billion that will allow it to
expand its service beyond cars and into
mobile devices and homes.
Pandora has faced intense pressure from
competitors like Spotify and Apple. Its last
quarterly profit was in December 2014.
But a buyout by SiriusXM, which made a
$480 million investment in Pandora in June
2017, may be the boost the business needs.
The ability to provide a subscription serv-
ice that gives Pandora customers access to
streaming music and satellite radio could
help set it apart from its rivals and would
likely draw in new customers. And
SiriusXM’s relationships with automobile
companies will open the door for Pandora to
have better distribution in that market.

Torn ACL ends Garoppolo’s season

SANTA CLARA — Jimmy Garoppolo’s

around the fortunes of the San Francisco

“It is very unfortunate,” coach Kyle
Shanahan said. “I’m not going to sugar-
coat it. It was hard waking up today. We
were down and disappointed about it
because we were looking forward a lot to
playing with Jimmy this year and going
through the good and the bad knowing
that he’d benefit from all of it. Now we
don’t get to do it. I know Jimmy is really
down about it and so are we but it’s still
going to be all right.”
The injury deals a serious blow to the
49ers (1-2), who had planned their
rebuild around Garoppolo and now must
turn again to C.J. Beathard at quarter-
back.
Garoppolo will undergo surgery in the
next week or two after the swelling goes
down and should be ready to play again
next season. The 49ers are planning to
promote Nick Mullens from the practice
squad and also will bring several veterans
in for tryouts this week, including Tom
Savage, Kellen Clemens, possibly T.J.
Yates and Matt Moore.

Only, Pretre misread the course. As she drew
within sight of the finish line, looking to
time the last of her kick with that remaining
distance, she realized there was one more hair-

Pretre, though, has dedicated herself to a
revamped athletics schedule this year.
Growing up a soccer player, her sports life
long had been futbol first. In recent years,
with her running career moving to the fore-
front, she decided to step away from the pitch.
This winter will mark the first time in her
three years at Menlo she will not play soccer.

the course. “But it was like, ‘oh no, there’s

Pretre’s parents are taller than 5-10, and
before the growth spurt it was estimated she
would grow to approximately 5-5. So, it was
quite a surprise when she kept shooting up.
“I don’t know,” Pretre said. “I was short, and
then I was tall.”
Not that being taller is the most beneficial
characteristic of a cross-country runner.

just the opposite. Look at Katelyn Tuohy, the

Steelers hold off Buccaneers 30-27
TAMPA, Fla. — Ben Roethlisberger threw

Capping a tumultuous week in which star

first-half TD receptions for Pittsburgh,
which led 30-10 at halftime.
The Steelers’ defense forced four
turnovers, including three first-half inter-
ceptions of Ryan Fitzpatrick, the 35-year-
old journeyman who threw for 819 yards and
eight touchdowns in two victories to begin
Tampa Bay’s season.
Fitzpatrick led his team to 17 fourth-quar-
ter points to make it close.

in is former 49ers starter Colin Kaepernick,
who opted out of his contract with San
Francisco in March 2017 after Shanahan
decided he wanted to go with a style of
offense that didn’t fit Kaepernick’s game.
“That’s what I said last year and it’s the
same situation now,” Shanahan said. “I
always look into what style of offense I
want to do and what style of offense we’ve
been doing the last two years.”
The Niners struggled with Beathard and
Brian Hoyer last season before the midsea-
son addition of Garoppolo changed their
fortunes. San Francisco won the final five
games last year after Garoppolo took over
as starter and the team rewarded him with a
$137.5 million, five-year contract.
The 49ers will have to wait another year
to earn dividends on that investment.
Garoppolo got hurt in the fourth quarter of a
38-27 loss Sunday when he was scrambling
toward the sideline and decided to cut up
field instead of going out of bounds.
Garoppolo’s left knee buckled just before
Kansas City cornerback Steven Nelson
delivered a big hit, ending what was sup-
posed to be his first full season as a starter
after just three games.
Shanahan said the play should serve as a
reminder to quarterbacks about the impor-
tance of protecting their bodies.
“That’s something that Jimmy will prob-
ably look at differently going forward
because now he’ll remember this the rest of
his life,” Shanahan said. “Nothing against
him. This happens with everyone. You see
it every Sunday. It’s a reminder for everyone
THE DAILY JOURNAL
why it’s an obvious coaching point.”
Expectations were high in San Francisco
this season that the team could end a four-
year playoff drought after Garoppolo had a
full offseason to immerse himself in
Shanahan’s offense. But with Garoppolo
and new running back Jerick McKinnon
both knocked out for the season with torn
ACLs in September, those high hopes have
been put on hold.
Garoppolo had completed 59.6 percent of
his passes with five TDs, three intercep-
tions and an average of 8. 1 yards per
attempt for a 90 passer rating. While he
hasn’t been quite as efficient as he was late
last year after being acquired at the trade
deadline from New England for a second-
round pick, the Niners offense has been far
more potent than it was before he took over
as quarterback.
Beathard started five games as a rookie
last year, completing 54.9 percent of his
passes with four touchdowns, six intercep-
tions, 19 sacks, 6.4 yards per attempt and a
69.2 passer rating that was second lowest in
the NFL.
Beathard threw a touchdown pass to
George Kittle on his first snap Sunday only
to have it negated by a penalty and wasn’t in
for any other plays in the game.
“I have a lot of confidence in C.J.,”
Shanahan said. “I think C.J. got a lot of
experience last year. We liked him a lot
coming out of college. ... He got thrown
into as tough a situation as I could imagine
a rookie quarterback being thrown in and
the guy didn’t blink.”

Giants shut out by Pads to start final homestand
By Gideon Rubin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Bryan
Mitchell has had plenty to deal
with: inconsistent command, a
monthlong demotion to the
minors, and stint on the disabled
list with an elbow injury.
Now, the 27-year-old San Diego
Padres right-hander believes he’s a
better pitcher for it.
Mitchell struck out seven in 8

a homer among his three hits, and
the Padres defeated the Giants 5-0

“I didn’t plan for this year to go

going 75-87 a year ago. Oakland
won only 68 games in 2015 and 69

He also spent a month retooling
his pitching repertoire at Triple-A

Mitchell said.

In case you haven’t heard,
Gruden is off to 0-3 start
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA — The last time a
Raiders coach watched his team lose
back-to-back games when leading
after three quarters, late owner Al
Davis brought out the overhead pro-
jector and fired Lane Kiffin.
There will be no repeat with Jon
Gruden this week, even if that
doesn’t ease the pain of these late-
game collapses in Oakland.
The Raiders became the second
team in the past 20 seasons to
start the year with three straight
losses after leading the first three
games at halftime with the latest
blown lead coming Sunday in
Miami when Oakland lost 28-20
to the Dolphins.
The Raiders (0-3) have spent
most of this season playing from
ahead, holding the lead for nearly
two-thirds of the time and trailing
for only 22:28 over the first three
games. In fact, there hasn’t been a
single second played in the first
three quarters of any game this
season with Oakland behind on
the scoreboard.
But the fourth quarter has been
an utter disaster. The Raiders fell
behind the Rams in the opener on
the final play of the third quarter
and then were outscored 13-0 in
the fourth thanks in part to two
interceptions by Derek Carr.
Oakland then was outscored 10-
0 in the fourth quarter in a Week 2
loss at Denver before falling apart
late again in Miami on Sunday.
Carr threw another costly inter-
ception and the Raiders let Miami
turn two gimmick plays into long
touchdowns that have kept Gruden
Tuesday • Sept 25, 2018
winless in his second stint as
Raiders head coach.
This marked the first time since
Kiffin’s final two games in 2008
that the Raiders lost consecutive
games when leading after three
quarters. They joined the 2011
Minnesota Vikings as the only
teams in the past 20 seasons to
start the year 0-3 when leading all
three games at halftime.
Oakland has started with the ball
each week and all three games
have begun with the Raiders scor-
ing and the opposition going
three-and-out. That has led to the
Raiders outscoring the opponent
by 18 points in the first half,
tying for seventh best in the
league heading into Monday
night. But Oakland has been
outscored by 47 points in the sec-
ond half, 22 points behind the
next worst team in Arizona.
The problems have been in all
three phases. The offense has
scored TDs on just four of nine red
zone trips, committed five
turnovers and fallen flat late in
games with just one field goal in
the fourth quarter all year.
Oakland has failed to generate
any big returns on kicks or punts
and had an extra point blocked in
Denver that proved to be the dif-
ference in a one-point loss.
The defense has allowed three
TDs on shovel passes and struggled
to generate big plays after trading
star edge rusher Khalil Mack.
Oakland ranks last in the league
with three sacks and tied for last
with just one takeaway, contribut-
ing to Oakland being the only team
that hasn’t started a drive this sea-
son in the opponent’s territory.

Given the struggles of fellow
cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon
— who, when not being burned by
an opposing wide receiver, is com-
mitting pass interference against
said receiver — the secondary just
got significantly weaker. I guess
the silver lining is, with Sherman
out, opposing quarterbacks will no
longer focus in on Witherspoon,
as the injury opens up the other
half of the field.
The worst part about
Garoppolo’s injury is not just how
it impacts the 2018 season, but
how it will impact the 2019 sea-
son. Is nine to 10 months recov-
ery time going to be enough? That
would put him right about the start
of training camp, meaning he
can’t participate on the field in off-
season OTAs. So, assuming his
rehab goes according to schedule,
is a month enough to get him
ready for 2019?

Which team would you rather be
right now: A 1-2 49ers team with-
out its starting quarterback, or a 0-
3 Oakland Raiders team that was
gut-punched for the second week in
a row?
Oakland coach Jon Gruden has
been savaged by fans for the
Khalil Mack trade. We don’t yet
know if it was a good or bad trade
(and I lean toward bad), but I think
this team is showing it is more
than one piece away.

high hopes for Raider Nation com-
ing into the season. They got back
their beloved coach in Gruden and
were convinced with him, quarter-
back Derek Carr and Mack, the
playoffs were a legitimate goal.
Barring an unbelievable turn-
around, the Raiders will be spend-
ing the New Year at home. For the

scored on its first possession of

Drug prices going up despite Trump promise
By Linda A. Johnson and Nicky Foster
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — President Donald Trump
made reducing drug prices a key promise dur-
ing his election campaign, repeatedly
accusing drugmakers of “getting away with
murder.” At the end of May, he promised
that drug companies would be announcing
“massive” voluntary drug price cuts within
two weeks.
That hasn’t happened, and an Associated
Press analysis of brand-name prescription
drug prices shows it’s been business as
usual for drugmakers, with far more price
hikes than cuts. The number of increases
slowed somewhat and were not quite as steep
as in past years, the AP found.
Over the first seven months of the year,
there were 96 price hikes for every price cut,
the AP found. Health and Human Services
Secretary Alex Azar, the administration’s
point person for efforts to lower drug
prices, conceded in a recent AP interview
that it will be a while before drug prices fall.
He noted the complexity of the medicine
market and its incentives for drugmakers to
boost prices so they and middlemen make
bigger profits.
“I am not counting on the altruism of
pharma companies lowering their prices,”
said Azar, who was a senior executive in Eli
Lilly & Co.’s U.S. business for a decade
when it dramatically raised prices for its
insulin products.
The AP analyzed 26,176 U.S. list price
changes for brand-name prescription drugs
from Jan. 1 through July 31 in the years
2015 through 2018, using data supplied by
health information analytics firm Elsevier.
The AP focused its analysis on the first
seven months of each year because of the
seasonality of price changes and to make
meaningful year-to-year comparisons.
The data included more than 97 percent of
price changes during those periods and, for
many drugs, several dosages and drugs
forms, such as pills, liquids and injectable
drugs. (In the 3 percent of cases not ana-
lyzed, the AP couldn’t determine how the
new price compared with the previous one
or whether it was for a product new on the
market.)
Among the AP’s findings:
• There were fewer price increases this

year from January through July than in com-
parable prior-year periods, but companies
still hiked prices far more often than they
cut them. This year through the end of July,
there were 4,412 brand-name drug price
increases and 46 price cuts, a ratio of 96-to-
1.
• In June and July, right after Trump’s
price cut prediction, there were 395 price
increases and 24 decreases. The two dozen
cuts were up from the 15 decreases in those
same two months last year, but increases
still outpaced decreases by a ratio of 16.5-
to-1.
• The median price increase, meaning
half were higher and half lower, was 5.2 per-
cent in June and July of 2018, down from 8
percent in that period in 2017.
• The median price cut this June and July
was 11 percent, much smaller than in com-
parable periods in prior years.
The AP also asked 24 large drug compa-
nies this summer if they planned to cut drug
prices. None said they did, though some did-
n’t answer. Drugmakers typically say they
need to keep raising prices of existing drugs
to pay for costly, lengthy research to devel-
op new medicines, though industry critics
dispute that.
Dr. Peter Bach, who heads the Center for
Health Policy and Outcomes at Memorial
29 West 25TH Ave.
(Near El Camino)
San Mateo
Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York,
said the AP’s analysis shows there’s been
no big move to decrease prices.
“We have a broken pricing system,” he
said.
In the U.S., drug pricing is far from trans-
parent. Manufacturers typically set high
list prices but then negotiate rebates and
discounts with middlemen, such as prescrip-
tion benefit managers, to get preferential
insurance coverage for their products. Many
consumers never see the list price, though
rising drug prices generally put pressure on
insurers to raise rates. Patients with high-
deductible or no insurance often get stuck
being charged the full list price.
Elsevier drug pricing expert Kay Morgan
said the data indicate companies are being
more cautious about price increases, but
Trump’s criticisms are just one factor.
“It’s everyone saying, ‘This has got to
stop,”’ Morgan said.

patients and their advocacy groups pressur-
ing members of Congress to fight high drug
prices, and Congress holding hearings on
huge price increases. Those include hikes
for EpiPen emergency allergy shots and the
actions of disgraced former pharma execu-
tive Martin Shkreli, who hiked the price of
an old infection treatment from $13.50 to
$750 per pill overnight.
“The rate of increases has slowed down,
but prices haven’t decreased,” said Stephen
Schondelmeyer, a University of Minnesota
professor of pharmaceutical economics who
runs its research program on drug prices and
public policy. He noted such temporary
pricing restraint occurs periodically, around
elections and other times when the issue is
hot, but then companies go back to raising
drug prices.
Edward Jones drug analyst Ashtyn Evans
said, “companies are self-policing more.”
She noted many firms are now taking one
price hike near 10 percent once a year,
instead of two or three smaller hikes each
year.
“That started before Trump was even elect-
ed,” she said.
Pfizer, the biggest U. S. drugmaker,
angered Trump by raising prices on July 1
for 40 medicines and vaccines, totaling
more than 100 products, with some
increases hitting 9 percent. Pfizer had
already hiked list prices in January for all
but two of those medicines, most by 9 per-
cent to 9.5 percent, according to Elsevier’s
data.
“Pfizer & others should be ashamed that
they have raised drug prices for no reason.
... We will respond!” Trump tweeted . After a
call with Trump, Pfizer executives reversed
those price hikes until January at the latest.
Seven other major drugmakers, perhaps
hoping to avoid their own Twitter spanking
by Trump, have since said they wouldn’t
increase prices for the rest of the year. All of
them had already taken price hikes on many
of their products in January.

Roughly bordered by Hillsdale Boulevard
to the south, Highway 101 to the east, the
county event center to the north and the
Caltrain tracks to the west, the 83-acre
development is the second of two phases
aimed at revamping a former race track and
is the largest project in the city implement-
ing the Rail Corridor Transit-Oriented
Development Plan, said city planner Darcy
Forsell. The entire 160-acre site running
between the Caltrain line and Highway 101
has been completely revamped from its for-
mer days of betting on the horse races;
Phase I included the new Kaiser Permanente
Medical Center, Whole Foods Market, other
retail, the Franklin Templeton Headquarters,
San Mateo’s police headquarters and a vari-
ety of housing.
In the 15 years since the developer
Wilson Meany presented its plans for Phase
II at one of its first neighborhood meetings,
the project has largely met the vision for
high-quality, transit-oriented developments
near the city’s Caltrain stations, said
Forsell.
“From our perspective, this project is ful-
filling the city’s long range planning goals
to create jobs and housing right near the
transit station,” she said. “But it is part of a
bigger sort of vision to grow near all of our
transit stations.”
Forsell acknowledged in recent years,
other developments have contributed to the
fulfillment of the 2005-approved Rail
Corridor plan near the city’s Caltrain sta-
tions, which also include the Hayward Park
and downtown stations. In August, officials
approved a 73-unit apartment building slat-
ed to replace the AAA insurance office build-
ing less than half a mile away from the
Hayward Park Caltrain station and a 935-
unit, mixed-use development dubbed the
Passage at San Mateo that would take the
place of a shopping center southeast of
Concar Drive and South Delaware Street.
The apartment building’s location is also
just north of the 599-unit, 12-acre Station
Park Green apartment complex at the inter-
section of Concar Drive and South Delaware
Street.
The City Council in April charged MidPen
Housing with building 164 residential units
LOCAL
and more than 500 parking spaces on two
redevelopment sites at 480 E. Fourth Ave.
and 400 E. Fifth Ave., blocks away from the
downtown San Mateo Caltrain station.
But the Bay Meadows project was one of
the first of its kind to create a transit village
in San Mateo, making way for a wide array
of neighborhood-serving uses — which
could include banks, professional offices,
restaurants and other services — a short
walk away from residents and employees,
said Forsell.
One of five office buildings sandwiched
between a stretch of the Caltrain tracks and
South Delaware Street, the 189,000-square-
foot Station 2 building is under construc-
tion and set to be finished by the end of the
year, at which point the software company
Guidewire is expected move in, explained
Janice Thacher, partner at Wilson Meany. A
set of 24 single-family homes on the south-
ern portion of the site are nearing comple-
tion as well, with two left to be sold, she
said.
At the end of the year, the developer will
begin work on an 82-unit building at the
heart of the site, located between two parks
and set to bolster the estimated 777 housing
units — a mix of townhomes, single-family
homes, condominiums and apartments —
already built on the site, confirmed Forsell
and Thacher.
Station Parks 1 and 5 have gone up for
review for a second time as the developer
seeks an expansion that would nearly dou-
ble the office space originally approved for
those buildings in 2008, increasing it by
some 177,000 square feet to reach a total of
367,488 square feet between the two build-
ings. Though the 450-student Nueva
School’s Upper School opened in 2014,
construction on a classroom building on the
west side of the campus is ongoing and con-
struction on the Upper School campus is
expected to be complete by July of 2019,
according to the school’s Director of
Facilities and Operations Steve Osborne.
When a 68-unit affordable housing devel-
opment to be built by Bridge Housing next
to the Upper School was approved in
January, planners estimated about 16 per-
cent of the homes at the site would be set
aside as affordable units when factored in to
the number of other below-market rate units
spread throughout the various housing
developments.
Occupying the some 27,000 square feet of
active ground floor completed commercial
space is a mix of businesses including
Fieldwork Brewing Company’s taproom at
3030 South Delaware St. and a cluster of
other businesses that make up a “town
square” across Delaware Street from the beer
garden and consisting of ground-floor ten-
ants like Blue Bottle Coffee, Tin Pot
Creamery and a 6,095 square-foot, full-serv-
ice restaurant space that has yet to be
leased.
Thacher said the developer has been
pleased with the high-quality retailers that
have stepped forward to lease spaces so far,
noting they have so far met the goal of pro-
viding neighborhood-serving retail on the
site and reflect the community’s values.
Outdoor spin classes offered by LIFT
Exercise Studio and the opportunity for
employees to step outside their offices and
eat lunch at Roam Artisan Burgers once it
opens Oct. 1 are among the uses Thacher has
been encouraged to see take shape in close
proximity to residential and office build-
ings.
“There’s a real synergy between the ten-
ants,” she said. “That’s really what we’re
looking for — the types of retailers that are
going to support each other and add to the
community.”
In proposing a 176, 883-square-foot
increase in office space for Stations 1 and 5
on the northeast and southeast edges of the
project site, Thacher said the developer is
hoping to meet the demand Wilson Meany
measured when Stations 3 and 4 opened for
office space near a major transit hub.
Originally proposed to include a six-
story, standalone parking garage at Station
1 and a 1-acre on Station 5 lot for a Caltrain
parking structure with some 500 spaces, the
revised plans situate the buildings’ parking
spaces in a mix of below- and at-grade park-
ing and give the developer space to expand
the buildings, she said.
Residents of nearby neighborhoods such
as Glendale Village have voiced concerns
about how the office space expansion might
affect traffic in and nearby Bay Meadows
since the expansion was proposed late last
year. Though she acknowledged them,
Thacher said surveys with tenants of
Stations 3 and 4 show more than 50 percent
of current employees choose to use some
form of transportation other than a car to
commute to work, adding that the 944,000
square feet of office space the site would
hold if the expansion is approved would be
well below the maximum 1. 25 million

square feet of office space allowed on the
site. The city’s Planning Commission is set
to review the plans for the second time
Sept. 25.
In the more than 15 years she’s worked on
Bay Meadows projects, Forsell said she’s
also seen the collaboration between the city
and the developer bring much-needed trans-
portation infrastructure improvements to
fruition, such as the relocation of the
Hillsdale Caltrain Station to a new elevated
one further north and new crossings to sep-
arate the grade of the tracks at 25th, 28th
and 31st avenues from the roads crossing
them.
Grade separations are increasingly sought
by cities along the popular Peninsula corri-
dor, particularly with Caltrain slated to run
electrified trains and the possibility of
high-speed rail sharing the tracks. The
result of some 20 years of work, new under-
passes at the three crossings are set to
increase connectivity between Bay
Meadows and other parts of the city, said
Forsell.
Forsell said the city’s development agree-
ment with Wilson Meany for Bay Meadows
runs through the end of 2023, but construc-
tion could continue after that point as long
as it’s permitted. She noted the high cost of
materials and labor as well as the demand for
housing and office space are among the fac-
tors that could extend the timeline.
Because much of a development’s plan-
ning process is devoted to studying the aes-
thetics of the buildings and predicting how
different uses for indoor and outdoor space
might complement each other, Thacher said
one of the most interesting parts about con-
tinuing to work on Bay Meadows is seeing,
finally, how those who live, work and visit
the area interact with the newly-built
spaces. She said the developer has always
approached Bay Meadows as another neigh-
borhood in San Mateo and continues to ask
residents and business owners for feedback
on how they can continue to foster commu-
nity there.
“You’re thinking about all of that as
you’re going through the planning process,
but what is most interesting now is to see
how people interact with the space,” she
said.

disillusionment with the process,
MacArthur said union members are
hopeful a third party will help estab-
lish some momentum toward produc-
tive negotiations.
“This is incredibly exhausting. It is
demoralizing. And I don’t know what
it will take for a cultural shift,” she
said.
District spokeswoman Amber
Farinha said in an email administra-
tors issued final proposal last week.
And in lieu of the union accepting the
offer, officials hope a mediator can
help the two sides build consensus.
“We look forward to continuing to
work with SMETA to settle the con-
tract,” said Farinha, noting the two
sides have made some progress in
negotiations over the last year.
The loggerheads reached during
negotiations follow another similar
contentious round of contract talks
last year, when a disagreement loomed
for nearly 500 days and teachers dis-
cussed a potential strike.
An agreement was finally reached
after a round of fact finding, and teach-
ers were granted salary increases that
included 5 percent retroactive to July
1, 2016, and 3 percent retroactive to
July 1, 2017, along with increases to
both teacher stipends and to the
hourly pay rate for supplemental
work. Teachers earned an average of
$76,139 last year, according to the
state Department of Education.
Amidst the ongoing discussions,
SPEIER
Continued from page 1
“Input is welcomed as we enter the
next phase of this important project
— taking it from the board’s vision to
a reality,” she said, noting the district
held a town hall with the Burlingame
City Council on the project in July.
The proposed development is still in
its formative stages as the groundwork
is being laid in advance of an environ-
mental review for the project designed
to spread across 8 acres of health care
district property. Officials recently
agreed to enter exclusive negotiations
with Professional Medical Builders to
construct the project.
The current site proposed for rede-
velopment hosts the district’s head-
quarters, as well as the Burlingame
Elementary School District office, a
senior rehabilitation center and other
medical offices.
District officials encountered chal-
lenges in recent discussions with
school system representatives regard-
MacArthur said a central source of the
disagreement is the union seeking 3
percent of the revenue potentially
generated from a $298 parcel tax float-
ed to the fall ballot. As it stands, she
said officials are only offering 2 per-
cent of the revenue from the tax which
is expected to generate as much as $10
million.
For her part, MacArthur expressed
disillusionment about the inability to
come to an agreement when the two
sides are seemingly so close.
“Why we couldn’t make any move-
ment over 1 percent, I have no idea,”
she said. “It really does seem to me
they are just looking to wear us
down.”
Officials have said the tax revenue is
needed to fill a $5 million budget gap,
and the school board is expected later
this week to discuss spending reduc-
tions potentially needed to balance
the books.
All told, teachers are seeking a 4
percent increase in compensation
which educators claim will help them
ing a proposed land swap which would
allow the school system’s office to be
folded into the development plans.
School officials are pursuing a proper-
ty value assessment which could help
the negotiations move forward.
As a majority of the land eyed for
development is publicly owned, Speier
urged health care officials to consider
uses which offer the broadest commu-
nity benefit.
“I believe that it will be a loss to the
community if primarily market rate
housing is created on district proper-
ty,” said the letter. “Market rate hous-
ing may, by definition, be created any-
where that land is for sale at market
rate. District property, in contrast, is
not sold and therefore offers the
chance to make rents much more
affordable.”
She suggested housing advocates
and nonprofit developers should be
invited to any future community
forums to offer guidance on the best
available mechanisms to build afford-
able units.
Speier pointed to the county
Community College District as a
potential model in such ventures, rec-

near the schools where they work.
Teachers are also frustrated with the
district’s interest in taking the poten-
tial tax revenue away from their salary
schedule following the measure’s
expiration in 9 years, should it pass.
And the two sides are at odds over the
district’s management strategy for
collaboration and professional devel-
opment time, said MacArthur.
Looking ahead, MacArthur said she
is uncertain when the mediator is
expected to intervene, but suggested it
is unlikely to occur before the
November election. In the meanwhile,
she said teachers may increase their
activism during upcoming school
board meetings, in an effort to per-
suade officials to ramp up their bar-
gaining efforts.
As it relates to the election,
MacArthur said the union is yet to
adopt a position regarding whether to
endorse the parcel tax proposal, but
suggested educators don’t take issue
with the measure as much as the pro-
posed allocation methods.
“We are not opposed to Measure V,”
she said, referring to the tax. “We
don’t have an issue with the language,
but we have an issue with the way the
district bargains and thus an issue with
the way the are currently proposing to
implement Measure V.”
Yet despite her frustration,
MacArthur said she is reserving some
optimism that the two sides may be
able to build some consensus and
reach an agreement in the near future.
“They could still come to their sens-
es and I am optimistic they will find
their way to making better choices,”
she said.
ognizing the success of the system’s
teacher housing developments as a
tool for recruitment and retention. She
added though, the health care district’s
development does not necessarily need
to serve solely those in the medical
field.
“District property could help many
public agencies, and the hospital
itself, by providing workforce hous-
ing to support these public missions,”
she said.
There may be additional legislative
pressure on the district to build afford-
able housing as well, noted Speier, as
federal tax credits commonly used to
finance such projects may soon evapo-
rate.
Fama said all perspectives will be
considered as the district moves its
vision ahead.
“The evolution of the district’s plan
has been informed by health needs,
healthy living trends and stakeholder
input since planning started nearly 10
years ago,” she said. “However, the
board’s goal has never changed — to
use the real estate asset to provide
community health benefits that meet
needs today and well into the future.”

THE DAILY JOURNAL
GOP
Continued from page 1
never sexually assaulted anyone.”
That declaration, remarkable for a
nominee to the nation’s highest court,
came as Republicans embraced their
newly aggressive stance and
Kavanaugh’s prospects dangled pre-
cariously. The similar tones and word-
ing they used in defending him sug-
gested a concerted effort to undermine
the women’s claims and portray an
image of unity among GOP senators
while pressing toward a confirmation
vote.
In the run-up to an appearance by
Kavanaugh and his main accuser at a
dramatic Senate Judiciary Committee
hearing, Trump called the accusations
“totally political” and among “the
single most unfair, unjust things to
happen to a candidate for anything.”
On Twitter Monday night, Trump
accused Democrats of working hard to
destroy a wonderful man ... with an
array of False Accusations the likes of
which have never been seen before!
Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell, R-Ky., angrily accused
Democrats of slinging “all the mud
they could manufacture” and promised
a full Senate vote soon, but specified
no date.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck
Schumer, D-N. Y. , retorted that if
McConnell believed the allegations
were a smear, “Why don’t you call for
an FBI investigation?” Schumer
accused Republicans of “a rush job to
avoid the truth.”
Trump has made clear he won’t order
an FBI probe. McConnell said
Thursday’s Judiciary Committee hear-
ing would proceed, and No. 2 Senate
GOP leader, John Cornyn of Texas,
said the panel could vote on sending
Kavanaugh’s nomination to the full
Senate as early as Friday.
There were no immediate signs that
the emergence of a second accuser had
fatally wounded Kavanaugh’s candida-
cy. Hoping to head that off, he and his
GOP supporters went on offense,
including the release of a letter he sent
the Judiciary panel accusing his oppo-
nents of launching “smears, pure and
simple.”
Later, Kavanaugh and his wife sat
for an interview on the conservative-
friendly Fox News Channel, an
extraordinary step for a Supreme Court
nominee. Kavanaugh, 53, is currently
a judge on the District of Columbia

Circuit Court of Appeals.
Kavanaugh said he wasn’t question-
ing “that perhaps Dr. Ford at some
point in her life was sexually assault-
ed by someone at some place, but what
I know is I’ve never sexually assaulted
anyone.”
Kavanaugh said while there were
high school parties with beer and he
wasn’t perfect, “I’m a good person.
I’ve led a good life.” He said that he’d
never done anything like the episodes
his accusers have described and that he
didn’t have sexual intercourse until
“many years” after high school.
“I’m not going to let false accusa-
tions drive me out of this process. I
have faith in God, and I have faith in
the fairness of the American people,”
he said.
On Sunday, The New Yorker maga-
zine reported that Deborah Ramirez
described a 1980s, alcohol-heavy Yale
dormitory party at which she said
Kavanaugh exposed himself, placed
his penis in her face and caused her to
touch it without her consent. Ford has
said Kavanaugh tried removing her
clothes and covered her mouth to pre-
vent screams after he pinned her on a
bed during a high school party.
Despite the forceful rhetoric by
Kavanaugh and his GOP supporters, it
remained unclear how three moderate
Republican senators — Maine’s Susan
Collins, Arizona’s Jeff Flake and
Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski — would
react to the latest accusation. With the
GOP’s Senate control hanging on a
razor-thin 51-49 margin, defections
by any two Republican senators would
seal his fate if all Democrats vote
“no.”
Collins said Monday she remained
undecided about Kavanaugh.
Proceeding with Kavanaugh seems
to give Republicans their best shot at
filling the Supreme Court vacancy —
and giving the court an increasingly
conservative tilt — before
November’s elections, when GOP
Senate control is in play.
Even if Republicans lose their
Senate majority, they could still have
time to confirm a nominee in a post-
election lame duck session, but the
GOP hasn’t indicated that is under con-
sideration. Delaying Kavanaugh’s
confirmation could allow time for
doubts about him to take root or any
fresh accusations to emerge.
Pushing forward with Kavanaugh
has its own risks, besides an embar-
rassing defeat for Trump and the GOP.
His nomination and the claims of sex-
ual misconduct have stirred up women
and liberal voters whose antipathy to
