TOP STORY Short-term rental ordinance will go to Board of Supervisors

By Jené Estrada Hi-Desert Star 58 min ago

JOSHUA TREE — About 50 Morongo Basin residents gathered in the Bob Burke Government Center to partake in a public forum Thursday morning on possible changes to short-term rental ordinances in the mountains and deserts.

The San Bernardino County Planning Commission called a second hearing to vote on proposed language that would update the county development code. The ordinance would allow short-term rentals like Airbnbs in unincorporated parts of the Morongo Basin, but would also place more conditions of their operations.

Staff member Suzanne Peterson presented the Land Use Department report, which she said was created with the input of code enforcement to expand the range of allowable short-term rentals and address concerns about issues like occupancy limits and parking standards.

The report was originally presented in August and has since been updated to address some public comments brought up in the rst public forum.

The county originally proposed to require rental owners to keep records on renters and their vehicles. The ordinance also banned additional dwelling units, or ADUs, like casitas and RVs from being used as short-term rentals.

“People had comments on ADUs, advertising, pet restrictions, record keeping, density limitations and more,” Petterson said. “We also heard a lot of people say that the desert is different than the mountains.”

After the August hearing, the ordinance was updated to allow for electronic record-keeping to take place on a host website, like Airbnb.com. Updates also allowed accessory units to be used as short- term rentals if the owner or manager occupies the property’s main house.

While these changes addressed some of the concerns brought up in the last meeting, the public still had several issues with the ordinance. www.hidesertstar.com/news/article_45b8e608-d0f2-11e9-b520-3b04fe196abb.html 1/3 9/6/2019 Short-term rental ordinance will go to Board of Supervisors | News | hidesertstar.com One group of speakers voiced that they still believed there is no place for short-term rentals in the desert. Another group voiced that the restrictions were too harsh. They said short-term rentals were vital for the desert economy and the restrictions would make it so that the only people who could earn money from short-term rentals were large-scale developers.

Jane Jarlsberg, of Yucca Valley, was concerned that the inux of short-term rentals would worsen the housing crisis, lowering the number of affordable long-term rentals in the Basin.

“My concern for many years has been affordable-housing long-term rentals,” she said. “I think these regulations need to include something to limit the conversion of former long-term rentals to short- term rentals.”

Several people from Morongo Valley echoed her sentiment and added that, in their community, short- term rentals bring in people who do not know how to live in the desert. They said these visitors often don’t know how to drive on dirt roads and can damage private roads that locals have lived on for years.

David Irwin with Terra Projects in Joshua Tree said he also believed that short-term renters can be harmful to the local ecology. He hoped in the future there could be a way to tax the rentals so the community can put that money back into xing their roads and parks.

“When renters do come here for the short-term rentals, they don’t have the same love for the community that we do,” he said.

Clint Stoker, a planning commissioner with Yucca Valley, thought some of the current language did not address specic desert issues because the ordinance was not taken from the desert region.

“I think campres are something that need to be addressed and have been a problem in the past,” he said.

The ordinance allows campres in short-term rentals in the desert but bars them in the mountain regions.

Mirian Seger, from Joshua Tree, agreed with him that the language could be more specic to the desert, noting that the ordinance includes information on snow plowing.

“I would remind everybody that you have another chance to talk about all of these issues when it goes to the board of supervisors,” Chairman John Weldy said.

The board of supervisors will hold its next meeting at 10 a.m. Tuesday. The meeting will be available for viewing at the Bob Burke Government Center in Joshua Tree.

Visit to Big Bear Alpine Zoo makes for a great and rewarding trip By John R. Beyer For the Daily Press Posted Sep 7, 2019 at 5:30 PM The first time I encountered a grizzly bear was in Yellowstone National Park. A gorgeous hiking trail led me through magnificent, awe inspiring vistas. Passing beneath an umbrella of Engelmann spruce, just enjoying the remoteness of the park, I suddenly stopped in my tracks. Fifty feet from where my boots stopped, was what appeared to be a juvenile grizzly bear sleeping a few feet off of the trail.

What a great opportunity for a photo of this marvelous creature in its natural surroundings. It dawned on me, as I was snapping a few photos, the warnings of the national park concerning such encounters.

Please keep a distance of 300 hundreds yards and the park’s bears.

As the juvenile opened its peepers, raised its rather large furry head, and stared at me, I thought, hmmm, maybe there is something to the warnings, after all. After five quick snaps with the camera, I slowly backed up the trail. By the time junior stood up and started sniffing the air, I was barreling down the trail, trying not to look like a tasty salmon in the process.

“I’m glad your life insurance is paid up,” my wife, Laureen, said after I returned to camp and explained adventure.

The second time I came eye-to-eye with a grizzly bear was at the Big Bear Alpine Zoo in Moonridge, just north-east of the Bear Mountain Ski Resort.

This time though, the bear and I were separated by a chain link fence.

According to the zoo curator, Bob Cisneros, the zoo has been captivating tourists and locals alike for more than 50 years. The zoo started as a rescue mission for injured and misplaced animals after a terrifying and destructive forest fire descended on the San Bernardino National Forest in 1959. Locals volunteered to

take care of the animals injured in the fire with little or no direction of how to run an animal recuse but soon, the Moonridge Animal Park (its original name) opened.

Through the generous donations of everyday people and a few government grants, the animal park continued to grow. Today, now known as the Big Bear Alpine Zoo, the facility is home to more than 85 species of animals and birds.

“Our rescues and imprinted animals (those animals that have been raised in captivity and then given up or released by their owners and cannot survive in the wild) equal roughly 90 percent of the zoo’s population,” Cisneros said.

The zoo takes up nearly 2½ acres, nestled at roughly 7,100 feet above sea level, in the mountains and hosts tens of thousands of visitors per year.

But a new facility is in the works, and according to Cisneros, the 5½ acre site should be completed sometime between this fall and spring of 2020.

“We don’t want to make the move during the winter,” he stated. “That would be hard on the animals and us, if there’s a lot of snow or ice.”

The $8 million state of the art facility is just a short distance from the present site.

“This will be an amazing zoo when we get it completed. Many changes in the way it is run, including monthly wellness checks on all the animals in our care,” Cisneros said. “Top-notch and a big-league move for us here in Big Bear.”

Cisneros, who worked at the San Diego Zoo for nearly 25 years, wants the Big Bear Alpine Zoo to follow suit. “We’re on track to be accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, only about ten percent of zoos in the United States have achieved that honor.”

“When I got here about four years or so ago, there was a lot of work to be done,” he acknowledged. “The people were doing an outstanding job, but we needed to move in a more progressive manner, for the animals and tourists alike.”

Though the new zoo has been in the works for nearly 20 years in all its phases, the movement for completion has really picked up speed under Cisneros’s vision.

Asked if he was excited about the completion of the new facility, he responded, “There’s so much to be done, it’s not exciting, it’s more like planning a huge wedding. The excitement will come the day, I see crowds coming through the new gates. For now, there’s too much to do to worry about how I’ll feel when it’s done.”

We walked the zoo, taking photos here and there and realized how wonderful the staff at the Big Bear Alpine Zoo were to those under their care. It made for a great and rewarding experience just a short drive from Victor Valley.

A day for remembrance By Staff Reports Posted Sep 6, 2019 at 8:26 PM APPLE VALLEY — The Lewis Center for Educational Research will continue its tradition of remembering the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks with a ceremony that will be open to the public for the first time in the event’s history.

In partnership with the Town of Apple Valley, LCER will host its 17th annual Patriot Day Ceremony at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday in the Ryan Cambridge Memorial Gymnasium on the Academy for Academic Excellence campus located at 17500 Mana Road.

Center President and CEO Lisa Lamb, who will welcome guests alongside Town Manager Doug Robertson, said the Patriot Day Ceremony will offer students, staff and High Desert residents the opportunity to remember and honor the men and women who risked their lives to help others in the face of unimaginable terror.

“As a highly patriotic school, AAE is committed to ensuring our students understand that our American freedoms are not free,” Lamb said. “We dedicate this day to honoring our community’s first responders, veterans and active military personnel, and remembering all those who lost their lives on that tragic day 18 years ago.”

To mark this year’s anniversary, LCER and town officials selected Apple Valley resident Regina Cervantes as the keynote speaker.

A former emergency medical technician who responded to Ground Zero in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001, Cervantes will share her memories and discuss the importance of remembering those who sacrificed their lives that day.

Academy Principal Valli Andreasen called Cervantes a true American hero. She said Cervantes’ experience will help bridge the gap for students who understand 9/11 only as a historical event learned about in the classroom.

https://www.vvdailypress.com/news/20190906/day-for-remembrance 1/2 9/9/2019 A day for remembrance - News - vvdailypress.com - Victorville, CA

“All of our students were born after that tragedy and have no memory of it,” Andreasen said. “We are very fortunate to have Regina Cervantes sharing her story and firsthand account of 9/11 with our students.”

In addition to Cervantes, special guests during Wednesday’s Patriot Day Ceremony will include representatives from the offices of Rep. Paul Cook, R- Apple Valley; 33rd District Assemblyman Jay Obernolte, R-Big Bear; and San Bernardino County 1st District Supervisor Robert Lovingood, among others.

First responders from the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department and the Apple Valley Fire Protection District will also be present.

Wednesday’s event will include performances by the Academy’s Knights Marching and Concert Band, a moment of silence and the playing of “Taps” by AAE students Madison Wallace and Kaydence Langley.

Apple Valley Mayor Larry Cusack said the town is honored to partner with LCER to bring the Patriot Day Ceremony to the public.

“We invite the community to join us on the morning of 9/11 to hear from a first responder who was there that fateful morning,” Cusack said. “We hope this special ceremony reminds us to never forget and also inspires us to be everyday heroes to those around us in our schools, neighborhoods and cities.”

Wednesday’s ceremony at AAE will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m. Guests are advised to arrive 20 to 30 minutes beforehand. LCER staff members will be on site to direct traffic in the parking lot. Students will be available to escort guests into the venue.

What Happens to Those Heartbreaking Tributes at the 9/11 Memorial The expressions of mourning left behind at the 9/11 Memorial and Museum are cleared nightly and preserved.

By Corina Knoll

Sept. 9, 2019 Updated 9:32 a.m. ET

They were trinkets that whispered to lives wrenched away.

A jar of sand from Oahu for a sister who danced on its shore. A blue herringbone scarf for the ﬂight attendant who had taken a fateful extra shift. Six scraps of notebook paper, each with a word in Spanish written to the father of four from the Bronx. “Hay gente aun que te aman.” There are still people who love you.

Left at the plaza of the 9/11 Memorial and Museum in Lower Manhattan, the items were placed with no expectation they would linger any longer than one night.

But even the tiniest of tributes can express so much — so these items, along with thousands of others left behind, made their way into the museum’s vast storage facilities. There, artifacts of unremarkable appearance — a tiny teddy bear, a seashell, a ribbon for a No. 1 dad — are considered valuable expressions of mourning that continue the narrative of Sept. 11.

Impromptu memorials are the ﬁrst tendrils of hope after tragedy, public declarations that someone is remembered, something good endured. Even posters of the missing remained up for years out of respect to the 2,977 victims.

“It really was: Where does the tribute landscape begin and where does it end?” recalled Lisa Conte, head of conservation at the 9/11 museum.

There was an intrinsic sensitivity to tributes by the time the memorial opened in the footprints of the twin towers on the 10th anniversary of the attack.

“We had made the decision from the get-go that this site would be cleaned every night so that every time a visitor stepped onto it, they could experience it fresh,” said Jan Ramirez, the museum’s chief curator. “We knew those trinkets had to go somewhere, so we wanted to build in the opportunity to collect them respectfully.”

The museum itself can be difﬁcult for family members, many of whom prefer to stick to the outdoor memorial with its twin reﬂecting pools of falling water bordered by bronze panels on which victims’ names are carved. It also serves as a symbolic gravesite for bodies that were never recovered.

“We know that her blood was part of that ground,” Martha Hale Farrell said of her sister Maile Rachel Hale, who was 26 when she attended a ﬁnancial technology conference on the 106th ﬂoor of the World Trade Center’s North Tower.

When Ms. Farrell, 43, and her sister, Marilyce Hale Rattigan, visited the memorial eight years ago, they brought along leis, ballet slippers, a bag of M & Ms, a mini soccer ball and a jar of sand to leave in honor of Ms. Hale.

“The magnitude is striking,” Ms. Rattigan, 46, said, “but for us, it was always a personal loss.”

The sisters were delighted to later learn that some of those items were displayed in the museum. A friend of theirs who visited had burst into tears at the sight.

“These beautiful things that were left for our own personal closure are touching people that never met her,” said Ms. Farrell. “It humanizes her to have people understand the weight of the beauty that was lost that day.”

The most common tributes left around the plaza tend to be ﬂowers, photos, ﬂags, embroidered patches, stuffed animals, ribbons and prayer cards. Tape or rocks are often used to secure items on the slanted parapets that line the pools.

“There’s only one way to get the photo to stay and not blow in the wind — you tape it to a chopstick and stick it in the groove,” said Corey Gaudioso, 28, who has brought family pictures over the years for his sister, Candace Lee Williams, a 20-year-old college student who was aboard the plane that crashed into the North Tower.

“We don’t want her to just be a name among names,” he said.

Letters are folded and tucked into inscriptions. Some are general and appear to be quickly jotted down by a visitor inspired in the moment. Others are more intimate.

It was placed on the Memorial Glade, the monoliths added earlier this year to salute those who suffered or died because of illnesses linked to ground zero.

Even strangers can leave words that haunt.

“I won’t forget you. Not now, not now I’ve been here. It’s strange, writing a letter to a person you’ve never met and never will,” wrote 15- year-old Eleanor Smith of Welwyn, England, to Christine Lee Hanson, who was 2 years old when she died aboard United Flight 175. “It seems important, though, that I do write. That I let you know you’re remembered. That, although you’re not the only name here, you’re the one I came to ﬁnd.”

Christine’s aunt, Kathryn Barrere, who initially believed a 9/11 museum would be tacky, has found much comfort in such tributes. “That had to be one of the most beautiful things,” Ms. Barrere, 58, said. “Did the terrorists ever think they could affect someone like that?”

Over the last year, about four dozen red bandannas and photos were left for Welles Crowther, the 24-year-old equities trader who helped people escape while wearing a handkerchief as a mask. Betty Ong, the American Airlines ﬂight attendant who was celebrated as a national hero for the phone call she made before Flight 11 went down, constantly receives tiny stuffed bumblebees, a nod to her nickname “Bee.”

Tributes are collected each night by maintenance crews. Food and ﬂowers are thrown away, as are beer cans and liquor bottles. Everything else is saved, taken to a secure area below the museum and placed in a metal cabinet next to a lab. Most end up in boxes that are stored at facilities in Jersey City and Rotterdam, N.Y.

Those tend to be tributes for victims for whom there is little information. A unique or unusual item can also make the cut, like the yellow helmet worn for three decades by a retired firefighter from the United Kingdom and the note left by Prince William and Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, on a rainy December day “in admiration of the courage shown to rebuild.”

Tributes are entered into a database that keeps track of their dimensions and history. The museum does not keep an exact number of the total tributes it has saved, only of those that have made it into the collection: 312.

If a note is sealed, it remains that way. A letter placed ﬁve years ago near the name of Rajesh Mirpuri, a 30-year-old sales executive, will never be opened.

But staff members love to see a mystery tribute reveal itself. For years, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups appeared on the plaza, stumping Ms. Ramirez, the chief curator who had come to learn many of the families’ histories. Then one day, Rob Fazio appeared with his family, all in orange shirts with a familiar candy logo. His father, Ronald, an accountant last seen holding the door open to a stairwell in the South Tower, had been addicted to the sweets.

“It has come the point to where we’ll get random pictures from people we don’t even know that leave Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups on his name at the memorial, or people will send pictures of their kids eating a Reese’s there,” Mr. Fazio, 45, said.

Mr. Fazio is among those who look forward to the anniversary of Sept. 11 when the memorial is closed to the public in the morning and families arrive to hear the victims’ names read aloud. Others who lost loved ones avoid the memorial altogether, unable to ﬁnd peace at the popular tourist attraction.

“It’s just too much and you’re sensitive to everything, to the memory, to what happened,” said Harry Ong Jr., 70, Betty Ong’s brother. “As a family we’re glad that people respect and honor Betty for what she’s done, and her legacy has carried on. But it’s bittersweet. We just wish she was still alive and with us and not on the plane that day.”

A report on the findings of a spring survey about homelessness shows Redlands residents united in an “overwhelming sense of urgency” and a “desire to take action.”

Though the survey also showed respondents may not have all the facts, that can be addressed as the community debates how to handle the situation, the report concludes.

Stephanie Miranda, who prepared the survey for the Redlands Charitable Resources Coalition, said S one example of misconceptions is the perceived top cause of homelessness. Respondents ranked mental health at the top, but this past winter’s San Bernardino County Point-in-Time Count showed homeless individuals ranked “no monthly income” at the top with 62% and they put mental health third H

with only 9%. By https://www.sbsun.com/2019/09/07/redlands-homelessness-survey-results-highlight-misconceptions-urgency/[9/9/2019 7:37:59 AM] Redlands homelessness survey results highlight misconceptions, urgency – San Bernardino Sun

Miranda said the disconnect provides an opportunity for education and increased dialogue.

“Most residents seem to want to find an innovative solution; they want to do something that’s M effective,” Miranda said. “And I think the first step to doing that is understanding the issue better.”

Almost half of respondents said city government should be the primary agency responsible for dealing with the issue. Combining city, county and state, the response goes up to 78%.

“They think it’s just the job of the government in general,” Miranda said of the survey’s more than 1,000 respondents, which add up to about 2% of the city’s adult population.

City Councilwoman Toni Momberger, who is also a member of the county’s Interagency Council on Homelessness, said Redlands has been working on the issue, having applied for and recently received a $600,000 state grant for housing. But, she added, a regional approach is what is needed to move people off the streets permanently.

“It’s too big for us,” Momberger said, citing a looming boom in automation-fueled job losses. “Maybe we (the city) can address the almost 200 homeless that we have counted this year, but it’s coming and it’s going to get worse.”

Craig Turley, with the Charitable Resources Coalition, said his group is using the survey along with data from almost two years worth of planning, meetings and public forums to create a report on solutions to present to the City Council, likely on Oct. 1.

The objective is to reduce the number of homeless individuals on the streets, he said.

“How we go about getting to that result: the methodology, the approaches, the funding, the buy-in from civic leadership, that’s yet to be seen; it’s a work in progress,” Turley said, “but we’re working

toward that goal.”

Looking for a good first step, Miranda said, the survey showed an interest in ending homelessness among veterans in the city.

Adelanto could soon see mobile bus oering medical services By Garrett Bergthold Staff Writer Posted Sep 6, 2019 at 8:51 PM A bus with medical staff on board could be pulling up to a city-owned parking lot soon.

The nonprofit Borrego Community Health Foundation is seeking a contract with the city of Adelanto to allow its 42-foot bus to park on city-owned property to offer medical services to local residents.

The services would be cost-free to the city itself, said Gary Rotto, a spokesperson for Borrego Health.

Individual patients would pay for service with their health insurance, including Medi-Cal. Certain people with low income or no coverage would be charged “on a sliding fee scale,” Rotto said, based on family size and income.

“We want to serve anybody and everybody in the community,” he said.

Under the agreement, Borrego staff may assist residents applying for various state medical programs including Medi-Cal, Covered California, California Health and Disability Prevention, among others.

If approved by Adelanto City Council, two nurse practitioners and two medical assistants will be on board the bus providing general family practice medicine, immunizations, gynecological services for women, among others. There will not be an x-ray machine on board, Rotto said.

The agenda item goes before the council next Wednesday. Specific locations for services have not yet been determined. The contract requires access to a bathroom and a shaded area for patients.

Mayor Pro Tem Gerardo Hernandez said the medical service would be helpful for the city’s lower income residents, “especially those in the north side of town who do not have any means of transportation,” he said.

Borrego Health operates two brick and mortar health clinics in San Bernardino County, one in the city of San Bernardino and another in Barstow. The Barstow Community Health Center opened in October 2018.

• Other items on the Wednesday agenda include an updated stadium report. The report includes a $15,000 reimbursement to the city for a cannabis festival. The repayment is for a credit given to the organizer of the Kushstock 7 event April 20 at Adelanto Stadium. It was unclear which government official authorized the credit.

The sum is the focus of a rift between Mayor Gabriel Reyes and Councilwoman Stevevonna Evans and appears to have led to Evans being replaced as mayor pro tem last week.

Each accuses the other of gifting a $15,000 credit to Kadan Borg, the Kushstock organizer, to rent the city-owned stadium. The credit was reportedly in exchange for a donation of the same sum the man for championship rings for the Adelanto High School football team. Reyes said the city will be opening an investigation.

• The council will also consider an independent contract with Jamie Lewis, who was previously employed through a staffing agency to audit the city’s cannabis industry. The council did not extend the staffing company’s contract in July, opting to instead put the position out to bid, with Lewis herself being the victor in the bidding process.

The amount is not to exceed $15,640 per month based on an $85 dollar hourly rate for 40 hours a week over a six month period.

Wednesday’s open session meeting begins at 7 p.m. Meetings can be watched live online on the Adelanto city website or viewed later as archived versions. The rest of the agenda can also be viewed online.

Today, California ranks as the fth largest apple producer in the country.

Parrish was the rst to grow apples in Oak Glen. In 1866, Parrish traded several mules and a wagon for his 160 acres of land. His original stock barn is still standing today and is the oldest surviving stick-frame building in San Bernardino County. When Parrish rst arrived, he grew potatoes because they were a quick crop to produce, and pioneer farmers knew that they could earn a decent amount quickly with the crop. Getting the rst apples to grow in Oak Glen required some hard work. To get the soil just right to produce apples, Parrish had to lay seven miles of drain tiles to wick extra moisture from the ground before he could plant his rst orchard.

Today, over 100 varieties of apples grow in Oak Glen. One variety, the Vasquez grows only in Oak Glen. Juan Vasquez developed the hybrid variety apple in the ‘60s; he was the head foreman of the Parrish ranch at the time.

The annual Oak Glen apple season began Labor Day weekend. The season runs from now until Thanksgiving and is a great close-to-home getaway that allows families to beat the heat, grab some home-style apple pie, candied and caramel apples, and cider.

“Oak Glen has a feel, like no other place in Southern California,” said San Bernardino resident Paula Bailey. “It is such a quaint area, particularly during apple season. I love it so much, I bought into Oak Glen Retreats just so I could spend more time here.”

https://www.newsmirror.net/entertainment/apple-season-opens-in-oak-glen-mile-high-city/article_8d7d95d0-d000-11e9-8bfa-174dabffa9d7.html 2/4 9/9/2019 Apple season opens in Oak Glen, ‘mile high city’ | Entertainment | newsmirror.net It is hard to argue that point, and people across Southern California must agree, as Oak Glen draws a whopping 300,000 visitors yearly.

Many days in Oak Glen oer a refreshing breeze and a bit of relief from the Southern California summer heat. Additionally, Apple Annie’s Bakery has a Mile-High Apple Pie (It weighs a massive ve pounds.) or perhaps a visit to the Village Candy Kitchen for a treat that will please even the most nicky sweet tooth.

There is no shortage of orchards to pick your fresh apples from.

Moms Country Orchards Manager Kelly Warren said, “Business is good. We were prepared for a good crowd as all the rain we received produced an amazing and abundant year.”

Make a stop at Village Candy Kitchen for some glorious confections to take home. No matter which direction you look in the store, there is a decadent temptation. A giant double fudge mixer turns two kinds of fudge in the back of the shop. Exquisitely decorated apples coated in chocolate, candies, and caramel line the shelves.

Dawn Campbell, owner of Village County Kitchen, said “Business is brisk.” and that “it was a good opening day.”

Los Rios Rancho is such a treat for visitors to Oak Glen this time of year. It is bustling with families in the picnic area tossing footballs and Frisbees, children eating sweets and drinking fresh-pressed cider and the unmistakable smell of great food cooking on a wood-red grill wafting through the air.

Once inside you will nd a botanical garden, a pond with cattails, benches to sit on and a dock to walk out on and take in all the sights. The Wildlands Conservancy saved this property from being a housing development when it purchased the land from the family of the Rivers brothers.

Devon Riley, who is in charge of business operations at Los Rios, said that a panning for gold attraction and an expanded bakery are in the works. Moreover, you will nd some great treats here as well, and may also catch a glimpse of Derek Morris bottling some hard cider.

One of the last stops on the road is Riley’s Farm; the workers dress in historically accurate colonial clothing and preserve the history of the original colonies. Take a few hours and drive up for a visit. It is a fun way to spend time in nature and explore historic Oak Glen.

Apple season runs through Thanksgiving. For further information, directions, entertainment schedules, etc. visit www.oakglen.net/

Green Tree extension project in Victorville may begin next year By Martin Estacio Staff Writer Posted Sep 8, 2019 at 7:27 PM VICTORVILLE — Construction crews could begin building a route providing High Desert residents an alternative way to get to Interstate 15 from the east as early as next year, city officials said.

Barring unforeseen delays, work on extending Green Tree Boulevard from the intersection at Hesperia Road to connect with Ridgecrest and Yates roads in the Spring Valley Lake area could begin July 1, city spokesperson Sue Jones said in an email.

The new patch of road would include a bridge extending over BNSF tracks and adjacent wash and a traffic signal at the Ridgecrest Road intersection.

According to a July 16 staff report, all environmental permits had been secured for the project and right-of-way acquisition was nearing completion.

After acquisition is complete, Jones said the search and bidding process for a construction company would then begin.

Former Victorville City Manager Doug Robertson, at a Victor Valley Chamber of Commerce Meeting in December 2016, said construction on the project was originally slated to begin late last year.

He said that the date was tenuous, however, after jokingly looking into a Magic- 8 Ball for answers at the meeting and reading: “It says cloudy, ask again later.”

The acquisition process for the Green Tree extension would require obtaining parcels from 22 owners, according to the former city manager.

Robertson noted at that time the right-of-way process in obtaining 47 parcels needed for the La Mesa/Nisqualli interchange took 4½ years. https://www.vvdailypress.com/news/20190908/green-tree-extension-project-in-victorville-may-begin-next-year 1/2 9/9/2019 Green Tree extension project in Victorville may begin next year - News - vvdailypress.com - Victorville, CA

The extension would complete a project for an east to west corridor, and a third arterial connection to the I-15 from Apple Valley, years in the making.

The neighboring town finished their part after completing a bridge connecting Yucca Loma Road to Yates and Ridgecrest Roads.

The Yucca Loma Bridge opened to traffic in May 2017 after more than two years of work and 11 years after the Town Council identified it as a No. 1 transportation authority.

Extending Green Tree Boulevard is estimated to cost about $45 million, according to a cost analysis provided by Victorville.

The San Bernardino County Transportation Authority is responsible for 51% of the project’s overall cost, with the city providing the rest.

In 2016, an agreement was approved in which the SBCTA will loan up to two- thirds of the funding — estimated at $12.5 million — for the city’s share, with the city paying it back in road development impact fees.

Per another agreement, the city will receive funding from Apple Valley and the County totalling about $4.8 million. An additional $4.2 million federal earmark will also help lessen Victorville’s costs.

According to a staff report, about $1.3 million in cash will be required from the city over the life of the project.

DJ Stanhope, 60, USO Inland Empire manager, says Christian’s fundraising — which has reached about $8,000 — touched the Ontario community and now, she wants to nurture that often ignored connection between civilian and military life through the USO.

“This is the love letter from the people,” said Stanhope, her eyes tearing up as she stood in a storage room filled with donated items on Wednesday, Sept. 4.

Fundraising is key

Stanhope and Christian emphasized that the USO relies nearly 100% on donations and does not receive government funding. That means the local residents and businesses must step up.

“It is what we dodo andand whatwhat thethe communitycommunity does.does. It’sIt’s thethe communitycommunity sayingsaying wewe wantwant to take care of our troops,” Stanhope said.

For starters, Christian held a barbecue in an old hangar on Aug. 21 that did better than expected, attracting volunteer servers from the Ontario Police Department, the Ontario Police Officers Association and the Ontario Fire Department. The money poured in from $5-$20 donations and also corporate donors.

Funds will be used to buy three or four new picnic tables with umbrellas. Also, Christian’s project calls for removal of old stone benches in order to create a front patio/eating area for the service men and women.

“I have a large amount of respect for the military. I’m glad to help them,” he said during an interview Tuesday, Sept. 3 after his water polo match.

Christian is a freshman at Northwood High in Irvine and the son of Mark Thorpe, ONT CEO. Christian Thorpe hopes there will be leftover funds for games at the USO. He’d like to replace the old Foosball table and add more comfortable seating.

“Yeah, theirs (Foosball) is old,” he said. “And it would be nice to add new recliners for the men and women to sit on.”

The ONT USO is located in a small house next to the old terminal. The building is well kept, with a movie room; library; game room with pool table and ping-pong table; computer room with WiFi and a kitchen and small dining area. There’s even a nap room filled with recliners and quilts.

Each year, the facility hosts about 40,000 troops who come through ONT for deployment to other bases in the region, to go home on furlough or to catch a connecting flight.

With the motto “home away from home,” Stanhope has created a cozy environment forfor tiredtired soldierssoldiers whowho cancan putput upup theirtheir feet,feet, catchcatch upup onon sleepsleep oror grabgrab aa hothot meal.meal. Some use the time to connect with family via Skype.

But the arrival of just a couple transport planes can bump up the numbers from 200 to even 1,000 a day. In June, the facility hosted a record 8,735 soldiers, she said.

This month, she’s expecting 1,500, a modest number that can grow unexpectedly.

When the numbers rise, the place gets cramped.

The soldiers sleep in the old baggage claim area in the adjacent building, she said, or sit on the concrete walls outside. No additional cots can be added to the building because it would create a fire hazard, she said.

“When we have 100 that’s OK, but when we have 1,000 we say: ‘Here is the ground’. What else can we do?” shrugged Stanhope.

Christian’s Eagle Scout patio project will add a needed eating spot. The staff may move the grill to that side of the building to accommodate the cooking of more burgers and dogs.

But a lot more money and donations are needed to repair worn out cabinets and replace old appliances in the kitchen, she said. Dining tables are too clunky and not flexibleflexible forfor thethe space,space, sheshe said.said.

Right now, the ONT USO keeps 180 volunteers but more are needed, especially for evenings, she said.

Families of fallen soldiers find solace

Some are killed in combat, during training exercises or they die from suicide, the latter a rising statistic among active military. The Air Force is holding informational meetings about the high suicide rates — about 78 airmen have taken their own lives so far this year, about 30 more than the same time last year, the Air Force announced last month.

Two weeks ago, the USO hosted family members of Master Sgt. Luis F. DeLeon- Figueroa, 31, and Master Sgt. Jose J. Gonzalez, 35, two Green Berets who were killed during combat operations in Faryab province, Afghanistan, Stanhope said.

Some of the family members from Southern California gathered at the ONT USO before catching a flight to Dover Air Force Base to claim the remains, she said. Gonzalez was a native of La Puente..

“I probably get between 12 and 15 fallen troops here a year,” she said.

Expansion plans reach to Riverside

Stanhope is a 22-year veteran of the USO and is the only paid employee on site. The USO operates more than 200 facilities throughout the world. She wants to beef up the USO at March ARB near Riverside, at the Barstow Marine Corps Logistics base and at Fort Irwin National Training Center.

Right now there are about 24 volunteers at March ARB, a number she’s trying to grow. At Barstow, “they have 90,000 to 100,000 troops so we are trying to get more refrigerators and freezers” as well as more volunteers, she said.

InIn Barstow,Barstow, thethe 7070 militarymilitary familiesfamilies areare isolated,isolated, sheshe said,said, oftenoften notnot knowingknowing manymany non-military families. The ONT USO recently hosted a camp-out and gave the Barstow wives a spa day, she said.

“This idea of connection is huge,” she said. “We are the bridge from the civilian community to the military.”

Christian, meanwhile, hopes to bring a volunteer crew to install the tables and add seating at the ONT USO in late October or early November, thereby completing his Eagle Scout project.

“It is all about the troops,” said Neal Hughes, 77, USO volunteer from Rancho Cucamonga. “Anytime you are here giving service you should feel good about what you do.”

By RUSSELL INGOLD Sep 5, 2019 Updated Sep 6, 2019

Fontana resident Li Xi Wang, seen in a photo provided by attorneys from the Cochran Firm, was shot to death by a Chino Police Department ocer on July 3.

Legal action is being taken on behalf of a 49-year-old Fontana man who was shot to death by an ocer from the Chino Police Department during an incident in Chino on July 3.

Li Xi Wang was inside a house that was allegedly being used for an illegal marijuana grow when he was shot. He later died at a hospital.

https://www.fontanaheraldnews.com/news/legal-action-is-taken-on-behalf-of-fontana-man-who/article_7de3cdb0-cffb-11e9-836a-633467b2b19c.html 1/3 9/9/2019 Legal action is taken on behalf of Fontana man who was shot to death by police in Chino | News | fontanaheraldnews.com Attorneys said on Aug. 28 that even though drug-related crimes may have been committed at the house, the shooting of Wang was unjustied, and they pointed to the recent release of police body camera footage which they said supported their version of events. Wang was unarmed, and no weapons were found at the location.

"It was an unlawful shooting, because the man that was killed did not pose an imminent threat of death or serious bodily injury to anyone, and that is obvious," said lawyer Brian Dunn of the Cochran Firm. "All of the other issues are secondary."

The incident took place at a house in the 6800 block of Rockrose Street. Ocers went into the house after obtaining a search warrant and arrested a 53-year-old Fontana woman, Ai Yue Cai. The ocers asked her if there were any other persons inside the house, and she shook her head no, the body camera footage showed.

But when an ocer searched the house, he saw Wang hiding behind a door. The ocer demanded that Wang raise his hands, but even though Wang apparently did not move at all, he was shot by the ocer, Dunn said.

"This shooting violated every (police) training protocol that we have, as it relates to the responsible use of deadly force," Dunn said. "Mr. Wang was passive. He had nothing in his hands. He was simply standing there."

Dunn said that both Wang (a Chinese immigrant) and Cai did not understand English, which may have contributed to the diculties that were experienced during the interaction with police.

Attorneys said Wang was hired to manage the marijuana house and had been living there for a few months. They said he was a friend of Cai, who was arrested on a charge of growing marijuana and grand theft.

Police seized 1,500 marijuana plants and $35,000 in cash at the house and also alleged that Cai and Wang were operating another marijuana grow house in Fontana.

The Chino Police Department said in a statement that it treats "any loss of life very seriously and we have personally shared our condolences with the Wang family." https://www.fontanaheraldnews.com/news/legal-action-is-taken-on-behalf-of-fontana-man-who/article_7de3cdb0-cffb-11e9-836a-633467b2b19c.html 2/3 9/9/2019 Legal action is taken on behalf of Fontana man who was shot to death by police in Chino | News | fontanaheraldnews.com The shooting is being investigated by the San Bernardino County Sheri's Department.

Victorville man accused of shooting at deputy in court on Monday By Martin Estacio Staff Writer Posted Sep 8, 2019 at 8:39 PM VICTORVILLE — Ari Young, a man identified in a video that authorities said shows him assaulting a female deputy, taking her gun, and firing in her direction as she fled, will see his first day in court on Monday.

The 21-year-old, who is being held at West Valley Detention Center in lieu of a $1 million bail, is scheduled for a hearing at the Victorville Superior Courthouse at 12:30 p.m.

According to court records, Young faces six felony charges including murder, assault with a firearm, removing a police officer’s firearm and discharging it with gross negligence.

Megan Forsberg, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s deputy involved in the filmed incident, was not hit by gunfire, authorities said.

According to a sheriff’s statement, the shooting occurred at about 8:25 a.m. Wednesday morning after Forsberg responded to a call in the 13100 block of Cabazon Court.

A woman had called sheriff’s dispatch yelling that her son be removed from her home.

Once there, sheriff’s officials said Young became combative with Forsberg, “repeatedly punching her in the head and face.”

Cellphone video recorded by a neighbor showed a scene in which Forsberg falls to the ground and fires her weapon twice, the Daily Press reported.

A man is then seen prying the handgun from her hands. As the deputy runs for cover, the man cocks the handgun and fires in her direction. https://www.vvdailypress.com/news/20190908/victorville-man-accused-of-shooting-at-deputy-in-court-on-monday 1/2 9/9/2019 Victorville man accused of shooting at deputy in court on Monday - News - vvdailypress.com - Victorville, CA

Seconds later, three sheriff’s deputies arrive. The deputies open fire on the man, who authorities said ignored commands to drop the weapon.

He was struck by gunfire and transported to a local area hospital with injuries that weren’t life-threatening.
