Coronavirus spreads through the droplets expelled by sick people when they sneeze or cough, and it can live for as long as nine days on surfaces if not disinfected, which is why people are advised to stay at least 6 feet from each other — which has been labeled “social distancing” — to frequently wash their hands and not touch their faces, and to avoid large groups. This week, Gov. Gavin Newsom said gatherings of more than 250 people should be postponed or canceled, and people in any group should keep their distance. Rerig said Carmel is the first Monterey Peninsula city to sign an emergency proclamation stating the existence of “conditions such as an epidemic which are or are likely to be beyond the control of the services, personnel, equipment, and facilities of this city, requiring the combined forces of other political subdivisions to combat.” The proclamation also states, “Conditions of extreme peril to the safety of persons and property have arisen within the city caused by the threat of COVID-19 that will impact significant city and community operations, including critical public infrastructure and services, and which will require the provision of additional public safety and emergency services,” and names him director of emergency services. As such, Rerig is in charge of determining how the city should respond to the coronavirus threat. “One of the things the executive team is doing right now is developing operational plans for how we’re going

Lana Kay Weeks November 29,1956 – November 20, 2019 Big Sur, California

Lana Weeks passed away on November 20, 2019, after a short illness. She is dearly missed by her family, friends, colleagues, and especially the members of Big Sur Fire to whom she became family, friend and mentor. Lana was born in 1956 in Washington, Iowa, to Geri and Richard Weeks. She graduated high school in 1975 and Bethel University in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1980 with a B.A. in Theatre and Dance, becoming a member of the Minnesota Dance Theater in Minneapolis. In 1984, as a member of Houston Ballet’s Marketing team, she took on the position of Audience Development Director, leading to the winning of a National Addy in 1987 for a television spot designed to reach new audiences. That same year, she was the P.R. Manager for the historic Gala Opening of the Wortham Theater Center, current home of the renowned Houston Ballet and Houston Grand Opera. Her work led her to the San Francisco Bay Area, where Lana became Associate Director of the Stanford Lively Arts, and in 1989 was chosen by the Bay Area Critics as the best publicist in the San Francisco Bay Area. She served also as a member of Stanford’s Centennial Committee celebrations for 1991. This was followed by positions as Director of Performances for the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts and, subsequently, to Carmel as a Managing Director at Pacific Repertory Theater. In 1998 Lana served as Development Consultant for the non-profit Sunset Center for the “Fire and Rain” event, Big Sur, October 2017 Arts, after consulting with the Carmel Bach Festival in promoting the early stages of the theater renovation, and she played a significant role in this joint project with the City of Carmel, completed in 2003. In 2004, Lana joined the Big Sur Land Trust as Development Director and became a driving force for guiding the Land Trust from its roots in traditional conservation on the Big Sur Coastline to expanding its impact in wider Monterey County. In addition to developing the first major gifts philanthropy program, she helped create new and lasting partnerships with the Salinas social justice community, ranchers, and local arts and music groups, to name a few. These relationships led to innovative new projects such as the Glen Deven Ranch and Marks Ranch youth camps and the Carr Lake project in Salinas, attracting diverse new leadership to the Trust’s board. As a resident of Monterey County, Lana fell in love with the Big Sur Coast, the community and the surrounding open spaces and moved to Big Sur in 2013, fulfilling a long-time dream. Not content to be only an observer in her new home in Big Sur, she was attracted to the selfless service demonstrated by the members of the Big Sur Volunteer Fire Brigade and was elected to the Board of Directors of this nonprofit volunteer public safety organization in 2016. Committed to its sustainability, she immediately prepared a fund-raising plan and helped initiate a program to prepare the organization to handle the increasing challenges of serving the community and the literally millions of annual visitors to Big Sur. Lana had an indefatigable optimism and incomparable capacity for encouraging and supporting the volunteers, recognizing their contributions, coaching and preparing for the future under a shared leadership model which encouraged the entire membership to take the initiative in planning for the future. Lana adopted the members into her life and was included warmly as a family member by the operational members. She donated her knowledge, experience and limitless enthusiasm as a professional fund raiser, nonprofit organizer and uncompromising friend and will be missed in the most visceral way by those she coached and mentored in the new model, now known simply as Big Sur Fire. Those in Lana’s circle will remember a person whose personal life and work were about a commitment to preserving the natural world, appreciating wholly the art that exists within all people, and the profound interconnectedness between the two. Neil Young and Crazy Horse, Martha Graham, Bill Frisell and Leonard Slatkin were all playing the same song in her eyes, full of passion and grace, beauty and truth. Lana chose a life unconventional and untethered, loved her dogs, Fred and Leroy, and enjoyed spending time with close friends. A memorial service for Lana is planned for 10:30 a.m. on April 7, 2020, at the Jones Eden Funeral Home in her hometown of Washington, Iowa, with a light lunch to follow. A Celebration of Life for Lana will be held at a private home in Big Sur on the afternoon of Saturday, May 9, 2020, with details of time and location to be announced. The Lana Weeks Memorial Fund for Big Sur Fire Training, Education and Professional Development has been established with a generous anonymous matching grant. Donations can be made to Big Sur Fire in memory of Lana Weeks, PO Box 520, Big Sur CA 93920, and will be matched up to $40,000 by the anonymous donor. Additional information can be obtained through inquiry to info@bigsurfire.org., or by phone to 831-667-2113. 18A The Carmel Pine Cone March 13, 2020 PUBLIC NOTICES

NOW THAT Disneyland has closed, Broadway shows have all been canceled, and the baseball season has been postponed indefinitely — all on top of the numerous local cancellations and closings we chronicle this week — it’s definitely no exaggeration to say that we are seeing a world no generation of humans has encountered before. We may not be suffering the devastation of war or a major terrorist attack, but we are suddenly living in an era of terrible economic effects, widespread fear, and death that seems to come out of nowhere. It’s an era none of us thought possible, much less expected. We offer that paragraph not to add to the huge pile of dire warnings that are already ubiquitous in the media. We offer it as a counterpoint to what we will say now: This epidemic cannot last, and with all the event cancellations and travel restrictions, all it will take is for everyone to follow basic safety and hygiene protocols for things to start to looking better quite soon. Many scientists have already said the same thing, based not just on their knowledge of biology, but on the empirical evidence of how this virus has behaved — especially in a country like South Korea, which has an educated population and a pretty advanced healthcare system. It’s also a place where the government can be expected to tell the truth about what’s going on, which means its statistics are reliable. In South Korea, the coronavirus first appeared in mid-February and quickly reached a peak of more than 1,000 new cases on Feb. 29. But since then, thanks to the isolation of known victims and other strict measures taken to protect the public, by March 11, the number of new cases was back down to just 100, and soon it will be even lower.
