El Ranchero

Dear Editor:
I was delighted to read your piece on
Jose Haro and his restaurant El Ranchero.
My large family moved to Claremont in
1966 and, being Mexican, we value family and good food.
Since several of my siblings still live in
Claremont, Im here almost every weekend and its rare if my sister and I miss
Sunday brunch at The Ranch (in addition to a midweek visit here and there for
Margarita specials).
But the reason Im writing is to mention
how special Jose and his whole terrific
staff are to my family. In my mother Beas
last years (she passed away in 2012 at age
90) she always looked forward to her Sunday brunch at Ranchero and seeing Jose
and the staff, who treated her like she was
their own abuela (grandma). And I was so
moved when I saw Jose at her funeral.
Since then, were always celebrating a
birthday or some special occasion there.
So last year, as I was planning our biennial
family reunion and needed a venue for our
opening meet-and-greet reception, I didnt
hesitate to book the banquet room at
Ranchero. As usual, we were treated like
family and everyone in attendance agreed
it was the best event of our reunion weekend.

Thank you, COURIER, for highlighting


this special member of the Claremont
community and I encourage everyone to
stop in and say hola to Jose and his team
(and grab a bite while youre there!)

Good news, bad news

Dear Editor:
In his article last week, Mayor Sam
Pedroza assures the community that the
citys $6.3 million in litigation costs with
the water company may be reimbursed
by the revenue bond if the city wins the
case on appeal.
Putting aside the unlikelihood of that
happening, what the mayor is actually
saying is that hes not worried, the
ratepayers will end up paying for his
lawyers and consultants. Its all good.
Everythings fine. Nothing to see here.
It reminds me of a variation on an old
wheeze Mayor Pedroza: I have some
bad news, some good news and some
bad news. The bad news is that we owe
$6.3 million; the good news is that we
have the money; the bad news is that its
in your pockets.

Claremont COURIER/Friday, January 20, 2017

Commission holds off on major renovation to Village home

he Architectural Commission voted


to wait on approving a two-story addition to a Claremont Village home.

The January 11 continuation slows the process of approval for Jessie and Tina Rodriguez, the applicants and
stars of HGTVs Vintage Flip. The Rodriguez family
also owns the local real estate company Cal-American
Homes.
For their television show, the couple recently completed renovating a home on Indian Hill and 12th Street
that will be featured in the new season of Vintage Flip.
Another Claremont Village home on 12th Street was renovated and featured on their show last year.
The Rodriguez family, along with architect John Bohn,
is proposing to add 2,400 square feet, between two stories, to an existing 1,200-square-foot home on 255 W.
Seventh Street. The home, a 1908 transitional bungalow
known as the Ryerson House, is listed on the citys register of historic structures.
The home is intended to be the Rodriguez family residence, according to the couple. They bought the property
two months ago.
The proposed additions would feature a more periodappropriate design on the front of the house, while employing a more modern touch on the back of the house
that is not visible from the street, according to the citys
assistant planner Nikola Hlady, who presented the proposal to the commission.
While representing a departure from the original design, it frankly looks pretty cool, Mr. Hlady said.
Principal Planner Chris Veirs noted that the city wrestled with how to accommodate the additions while keeping the look and feel of the block. The solution, according
to Mr. Veirs, is to allow a second-floor addition only if its
located near the rear of the house in an effort to keep the
overall look of the streetscape.
In the Rodriguez case, a massive oak tree located on
the eastern side of the property would mostly obscure the
second floor. Mr. Bohn said the tree would not only be
taken care of during construction, but it would serve as a
centerpiece for the remodel.
During his presentation, Mr. Bohn said the house
would retain the feel of the block, with plans drawn from
designs of other houses in the area.
But there were concerns from neighbors like Constance Casanelli, who would be the easterly neighbor of
the Rodriguez family. She told the commission during
public comment that the second-story additions would
block sunlight and air from her property, which she has
enjoyed for 44 years.
I will not have sunlight now. I will have two stories
of clapboard, Ms. Casanelli said, also expressing concerns that the window placement would line up with the
windows of her house, creating a privacy issue.
Under the plan, the home will come within the fivefoot maximum setback from Ms. Casanellis house,
which only has a three-foot setback from the Rodriguez
property due to an earlier lot division.
Martin McLeod, who sat on the citys mansionization
committee, noted that he appreciated Mr. Bohns comments and ideas, but, If I were the neighbors, I wouldnt like that.
He called for consistency in design, saying that the
modern design of the back of the property, while inventive, would take away from the era in which the house
was built.
Jeff Descombes, who previously lived in the home for
25 years, attests that the design checks all the boxes for
mansionization, including square footage and setbacks,
and is the largest interior house within a nine-block radius.
James Sink noted that a color and material board is
missing from the overall plans, which was confirmed by
commissioner Maureen Wheeler.
There were also speakers in favor of the remodel, including the LaRose family, who also live on Seventh
Street and are remodeling their home as well. They cau-

tioned if the commission is overly prohibitive with


what people can and cannot do, it would serve as a disincentive to young families who want to remodel their
Village homes.
Claremont Heritage Director David Shearer was generally in favor of the plans, noting that there could be some
tweaks in terms of the character and feel, but conceding
that Mr. Bohn did a pretty good job in the design.
During discussion, Commissioner Marc Schoeman
lamented the change in character of the block, but noted
that the Rodriguez family and Mr. Bohn designed the
house within the specs of the citys mansionization code.
In other words, the applicant has every right to do
what theyve done. Theres nothing that theyre proposing that theyre asking special permission for, he said.
Ms. Wheeler called the design delightful, but agreed
with resident Janet Macauleys comment that the eastern

end of the house looked bleak. She also called out the
inconsistency in design and the lack of a color and material board. Ms. Wheeler also called into question a window placement on the first floor, wondering why it would
face east when there could be potential for more sunlight
if facing the street. Mr. Bohn explained that the placement, which would look into a childs room, would create more privacy.
Mr. Manifold noted the plans were such an aggressive
design for such a small lot, and called the eastern wall
and five-foot setback a certain disrespect to the eastern
neighbor, Ms. Casanelli.
In the end, the commission opted to continue the discussion to give the applicant time for a possible redesign
and the addition of a color and materials board. The architectural commission will meet again January 25.

Judge sends
murder case to
juvenile court
An LA County Superior Court
judge has transferred the murder case
against a Claremont boy from adult
court to juvenile court, according to
the Los Angeles District Attorneys
Office.
The boy, who was 14 at the time of
the November 2015 incident, is accused in the stabbing death of his 15year-old sister at a north Claremont
home.
The case was transferred during a
pre-preliminary hearing on January
11. A transfer hearing is set for February 22 to return the case to juvenile
court. However, the DAs office has
filed a motion in an attempt to keep
the case in adult court, according to
LA County DA spokesperson Sarah
Ardalani.
The boy is currently being held at
Los Padrinos Juvenile Detention Facility in Downey. Multiple calls to the
familys attorney were not immediately returned.

with police, but they were eventually arrested. Officers found a butane honey oil
lab used to extract THC from marijuana
inside the home, Lt. Ciszek said. Three
juveniles were also discovered in the
home. The home is bank-owned, and the
squatters had lived there for a number of
months. Mr. Rosas was arrested for failing to leave, obstruction and for having
warrants for his arrest; Mr. Alter was arrested for obstruction; and Ms. Guerrero
and Ms. Miranda were arrested for child
endangerment.

CITY NEWS

Eight questions for eight candidates: Larry Schroeder


council meeting. I think it was great for relationships. I
dont know when that fell off, but Id like to do it again
because theres nothing like breaking bread and talking
things over with people. Its a more informal situation,
so you can be a little more open. I think its good.
I dont think our relationship is fractured. Just because
we disagreed on not moving a historic house and not
putting in the building as its designed now on College
Avenue doesnt mean were fractured. Its just another
sign that sometimes the council doesnt agree with each
other.

ayor Pro Tem Larry Schroeder is running for


re-election to the Claremont City Council. A
member of the council since 2009, he is banking on his decades of experience in the public sector to
guide Claremont to the completion of a number of city
projects.
Why are you running?
Im running for the same reason Ive run the last couple of timesI feel I have the knowledge and experience
to help Claremont along. I was a banker for 10 years. I
was finance director in two cities. I spent 26 years as a
municipal employee and I learned a
COUNCIL
lot. After I retired, I finished my docELECTION
torate degree in public administration. Ive taught public finance and budgeting at both
University of La Verne and Cal Poly Pomona. Ive done
consulting with various cities, and every time I do some
consulting with a city, I find out what went wrong there
and bring it back to Claremont, which is good for Claremont.
This time, particularly, we have the issue of the water
company. Thats a big driving force as to why Im running. I know when I leave the council therell be unfinished business. But the water in particular, Id like to see
through at least for four more years, to see how it goes.
Should the city appeal in the eminent domain trial over the water system?
Were going to have a special council meeting on January 31 at 6 p.m. to discuss whether we should appeal
this or not. And if we do, if our current legal teamor
another legal teamshould handle the appellate hearing,
it will go before a three-panel judge, not just one judge.
Without revealing anything that was said in closed session, we spent about two-and-a-half hours with our attorneys and Im convinced the judge did not make the
correct decision. He held Claremont to a much higher
standard than the law allows. And I feel that right now,
if we were to appeal, we would probably prevail.
As a councilmember, I have to keep an open mind until I hear everybodys testimony and it comes to a vote,
and I certainly shall do that. Weve spent over $6 million,
and if we quit now we would be liable for some attorneys fees. I think the water company may have overinflated their coststhat remains to be seen, too. So if we
do the appeal, it also makes sense to put maybe another
half million dollars into this to do the appeal and protect
that $6 million and the expense of paying back the cost.
In July 2016, the council rejected funding to build
a bridge over Indian Hill Boulevard to accommodate
the upcoming Gold Line, a move some have said
was made too quickly. Do you regret going so fast on
rejecting the bridge?
No and, as I recall, we had a very tight timeline [February 2017] for the Gold Line. They offered us $23 million to build a gigantic walltwo gigantic wallsand fill
it with dirt to put the Gold Line over. I do think it was
rushed, but it was rushed due to the Gold Line wanting
an answer right away. There didnt seem to be time to go
to the commission for it. But we did have some public
comment a couple of times on the Gold Lineit was presented to the Village merchants and a couple other organizations, and then we did have discussion at the council meeting when it was decided. It would have been nice

ELECTION CALENDAR
Campaign kick-off speech in honor of Martin
Luther Kings birthday titled Three Political Conversations, with council candidate Michael Keenan
at Shelton Park, corner of Harvard and Bonita Avenues, on Saturday, January 21 from 3 to 3:30 p.m.

Weve noticed you didnt have any pet projects


during your last council term. Do you have any specific projects lined up for your next term, if youre reelected?
Well, certainly we want to finish up business with the
water. We need to be very aware of the budget, thats a
priority for me. And make sure were constantly on top
of thatgetting the quarterly reports and watching them
very close, because the council is ultimately responsible
for that.
To support the police is a big project for me. I think
council can support the police by making sure they have
the resources to do their job. And I think as a citizen, I
can and everybody canhelp the police out by, See
Something, Say Something. There are so many things
we can do as individual citizens to help out the police.

City council candidate Larry Schroeder.

if we could have done something like a ribbon of concrete


on some pillars that brought the Gold Line over Indian
Hill, but they only offered the $23 million, which would
only pay for the two walls filled with dirt because its the
cheapest way to go. They wouldnt give us any more
money than that, and that would mean trying to float a
bond issue for a much more expensive project. We didnt feel that would be acceptable for the people.
Were going to move the Metrolink station past College Avenue, because the Metrolink sitting in the station
lowers the gates on Indian Hill now. If we move it back
that far, it wont lower the gates. The Gold Line plays by
different rules; by sitting at the current station where the
Gold Line would be, it wouldnt lower the gates on Indian Hill. And, of course, along with that, were going
to do some traffic studies to see how we can relieve the
flow of traffic around that area.
The current council has been in place for a number of years. Some say the relationship is too chummy. How do you respond to those claims?
Its a good thing that the council respects each other,
and they do have a tendency to get along. We dont always vote together, and we certainly irritate each other
sometimes. Its kind of like your extended family; you
sometimes get mad, but you get together and go on
from there. In my day working in the public sector, Ive
seen councils who were so at odds with each other, one
councilmember was suing the other four. That is not a
good thing. So you can have extremes both ways. I
think were kind of in the middle now.
David Oxtoby is leaving Pomona College in June,
and he is seen as the last true link in regards to
city/college relations. What can you do to mend town
and gown relations after his departure?
What I would like for us to do is reinstate the quarterly
lunches we used to have between the city and the Colleges. We had the chief executive officer of the Claremont University Consortium and two presidents meet
with the mayor, another councilmember and the city
manager; we would rotate the city councilmembers and
they would rotate the presidents. We would sit down
once a quarter and break bread. We had an agenda, but
we didnt have to stick to it because it wasnt an official

A lot has been said about the role of commissions


in regards to the Pomona College Museum of Art. It
seemed, to us, that the city had decided on the museum before the commission had a chance to make a
recommendation. Do you think the citys commissions hold value?
The commissions have always played a vital, but
advisory, role in the city council. When I was on the
Community and Human Services Commission, I felt
that the commissions were heard. There were times
when I know we were a little back-and-forth with the
council, but I think the commissioners are heard. Also,
were a fairly small town, as things go. Everybody
knows where I live and knows my email address and
how to get a hold of me.
We also have the mayor-commissioners meeting once
a month, where the mayor and one of the councilmembers meet with the heads of the commissions to talk
about whats going on, if we have any problems. We try
to keep an open dialogue. There is always room for improvement, but we do take those commission recommendations seriously. If we didnt have commissions, we
would be having a council meeting, if not every week,
a couple times a week, because they do a lot of the vetting of these issues for us. We dont necessarily rubberstamp every recommendation, but we do take them seriously. I dont think the commissions should feel that
theyre left out or not listened to.
If you had a magic wand, what would you change
about Claremont?
I dont want to disappoint anybody, but Ill tell you a
secret: there is no magic wand. Even if we did, what if
we could fund every project? That still wouldnt solve
our problems, because people would still say, Okay, are
these problemseven though we have all the money in
the worldworth doing, and if they were, which would
we do first?
That said, I think what makes Claremont great is citizen participationin the government, in the schools, in
the nonprofits. Even when we hold events, people show
up and they participate. They share ideas and work
things outsame thing with the council when we disagree. We move ahead making it better every day, guiding the change that is inevitable. Change is going to
come, and all we can do is guide that along. We just need
to keep in mind how much we love the character of the
city and work towards preserving it.

Not left behind in the new year, new times


by John Pixley

othing here has changed. Its


calm. Its a totally different
world. You forget about
whats happening in the outside worldthe
big city.
This is sort of true. And its sort of not true.
It is true that things are pretty calm here in Claremont.
This is a quiet town, in general. Its not a sleepy town,
with nothing going on, as in years past, but it is a quiet
town, relatively speaking.
Its not like the outside worldthe big city. And it
easy to forget whats happening in the outside world
the big city. Or it can be.
But this quote isnt so true about Claremont.
Actually, this quote isnt about Claremont. It is from
a Los Angeles Times article a couple weeks ago about
Weed, the small town in the northern reaches of California. Actually, Weed isnt such a small town in the rural area way up there on Highway 5, where Highway 5
isnt so big, in the shadow of Mt. Shasta. The article was
about how the community continues to get along, despite
its having a large Latino population and voting for Donald Trump for president, unlike most of state.
While Claremont, like Weed, is a small town that
goes about its business, where its easy to forget whats
happening in the outside worldthe big city, it is not
only a very suburban town, not so far from the big city.
Its also not a town where nothing changes.
A friend recently wondered why everyone takes down
their holiday lights so soon after the New Year. Why cant
they leave the lights up for a while to shine through the
dark, cold winter, he wondered. I can understand. I have
enjoyed seeing a few lights left up here and there, shining into the new year, and I also see lights up and glowing all year, inspiring me to leave a strand visible, bright
in the night.
But the fact is that things have moved on, and there has
been change. The calendar has changedand not just a
page in the calendar. We have a new calendar, with a new
year, and it has already moved on, well under way.
As if to make sure we get this message, the holidays
ended with a fence going up around the small cottages
owned by Pomona College on College Avenue, right behind the library. And a picture on the front page of the
COURIER recently made it even more clear: the cottages
are being torn down. Indeed, they may already be gone
by the time this is read.

I think we may
have problems
with our Zen and
meditation and
also cheering for
the football teams.

observer
The cottages are giving way to the new art museum
that Pomona College has been planning and is now set
to build on the site. There will be even more change soon,
as the historic Renwick House south of the cottages will
be moved across the street, also to make way for the new
museum.
Talk about ringing out the old, ringing in the old. And
its happening come hell or high water (pun perhaps intended, with all the rain during the demolition), whether
its liked or not. The siting of the museum has been a
source of heated debate, with some saying it shouldnt
be on the west side, the town side, of College Avenue,
and a group calling itself Citizens to Save College Avenue has filed a lawsuit against the city and the college
in an effort to stop or delay construction. No matter. The
project, like the new year, is well under way. Its moving on.
If anyone needs any more of a sign that its a new year
with changes and things moving on, it couldnt be more
clear with the presidential inauguration happening today.
There can be no more talk of vote recounts and putting
off the tally, and awe and outrage are old news, something on last years calendar. Today is the day we wake
up and see that the election of Donald Trump wasnt a
wild dream or a nightmare. It wasnt a television reality
show.
There has been much shifting and adjusting, with
folks making other plans and setting other priorities, as
this realitynot reality show realitysets in and everything moves on. One such shift, one such adjustment, is
something Claremont is doing on an official level in reconstituting its Committee on Human Relations.
This is a case of Claremont being a small town but definitely not one where nothing happens and nothing
changes. Not only is Claremont not doing nothing here,
but this is a small town being very much a part of the
outside worldthe big city.
The effort to reboot the Committee on Human Relations, with Paul Buch, Ellen Taylor, Lauren Roselle,
Rose Ash and Michael Edwards, is really about the election and todays momentous transition. It is being done

after the Islamic Center of Claremont, along with other


local mosques, received a threatening letter in November. The unsigned letter called Muslims filthy, said that
they have to leave and cited the election of Mr. Trump,
calling him the new sheriff in town. This wasnt an isolated event; there have been many such incidents of
threats and violence against Muslims and other minorities, inspired not only by Mr. Trumps election but also
his candidacy.
The Committee on Human Relations was first created in 1996 and was quite active, especially in the wake
of the lethal shooting of an African-American motorist
by Claremont police. But, after a while, things quieted
down, and there was a lack of activity and a lack of quorum on the committee. The committee was dissolved in
2013, replaced by the Human Relations Community
Response Team, an action committee focused solely on
assisting victims of hate crimes.
Some have wondered why the Committee on Human
Relations should be revived, especially when the response team has hardly ever been utilized. (Most of the
hate crimes in Claremont happen at the Colleges, which
have their own support structure, making the response
team redundant and irrelevant.) What will happen when
things quiet down again, sooner or later after the mosque
incident, and the committee finds itself with nothing to
do and no reason to meet?
As Butch Henderson, who heads the Community and
Human Services Commission, put it, what process can
be taken that guarantees we wont have another fizzleout of the human relations committee?
It is certainly important that the committee has a reason to exist on a on-going basis, that it isnt just sitting
there, or, worse yet, not even sitting, and it has been
tasked with coming up with a plan and steps for what to
do when things quiet down as well as in times of crisis.
It is even more important that the committee exists
all the more reason to nail down its mission. When it has
become so evident that things are or can become tense
and that human relations are indeed and still fragile,
this committee will be an important sign, an important
signal, for this community, for what is important here. It
will be a sign, as when the city offered benefits to samesex partners for its employees and, along with the colleges, observed the Martin Luther King holiday.
It will shine even brighter in the dark than a string of
lights.

An eagle soars
Dear Editor:
Thank you to everyone who contributed
to my Eagle Scout project at the Claremont
Little League baseball fields at College
Park. So many people contributed financially and physically and I could not have
done it without you.
My project was a renovation of the
Claremont Little League snack bar seating
area and it was completed in December of
2016. I have worked so hard to get to the
rank of Eagle and my project is the final
step. I am very grateful for the donation I
received from Claremont Little League in
memory of Mr. Bruce White.
Also, I would like to say thank you to
Kasey Jones from Jonescape Construction.
Kasey and his company were a huge help
with my project by giving me support and
guidance. Thank you to Mr. Andrew Mowbray and Mr. Campbell Wright from Claremont Little League and Mrs. Alison Martinez from the city of Claremont for their
help. Thank you to my fellow scouts from
Claremont Troop 402 and Covina Troop 443
for all of the help they provided.
I would also like to thank the Holmes
family and my really good friends, Sean
Castro, Brendan Matos and Samuel Venegas and my parents, Kim and Kevin, and
my brother Andrew for their huge contribution of time and effort.
Lastly, thank you to everyone who was
kind enough to donate to my project. I hope
the people of Claremont Little League and
the families in our community will enjoy
this renovation for many years to come.

Claremont water
Dear Editor:
Water has been a source of controversy
in Claremont for much of its history, and
rates are higher here for several reasons: The
system is old and, much like older people,
requires a lot of maintenance. We have large
lots that use more water and we did not acquire some of the revenue rights that
younger communities enjoy.

READERS COMMENTS

Having offered Golden State Water


(GSW) 20 percent of what the company
claims that our local water system is worth,
the city put Measure W on the ballot to engage public support for a takeover via eminent domain. Our council members now
say they did not promise lower water rates
but the numerous flyers we all received,
showing a water spigot with currency
flowing out of it, sent a different message.
Last year, this dispute was taken to
court. Claremonts argument seemed to be
little more than we are a college town, and
our citizens are so smart that they deserve
to own the water system.
The city also submitted approximately13,000 pages of documents to the
judge,via flash drive, hoping he would read
all the paperwork and make a determination in our favor. Such an approach raises
concerns about the quality of our legal representation.
Claremont also proposed the city of La
Verne, which has a history of lead in its water (think Flint, Michigan), as our prospective system operator, even though La Verne
would need to hire and train up to 14 new
employees. Incidentally, the experienced individual who might have run the water system for Claremont retired last month.
After thoroughly reviewing the evidence and the legal arguments, the judge
ruled against Claremont and dismissed
the case. The takeover has already cost the
city more than $6 million, and our liability for GSWs legal fees brings the grand total to around $14 million. Of course, we
could appeal the courts ruling and incur
even more costs.
The city has responded with a 16-page
ramble which seems to have no real grasp
of the courts findings. I urge everyone to
read the judges decision and make your
own determination regarding the wisdom
of taking an appeal.
If we do appeal, it is not likely to end well.
Claremont could end up with gigantic le-

gal bills, no reduction in rates, no water company, and a loss of civic credibility. If the
city wanted to reduce the cost of water, they
could have offered each user a significant
cash rebate, instead of squandering it on unnecessary legal fees.
David Burgdorf
Claremont

US and the UN
Dear Editor:
Tensions are high in Washington following the United Nations Security Council vote on Israeli settlements. Some members of Congress are now calling for a cut
to UN funding. But without active participation at the UN, including full funding, our
nations ability to achieve our foreign policy and national security objectives will be
severely diminished.
Withdrawing from the UN will significantly jeopardize Americas influence
around the world and our ability to steer the
international agendaallowing other nations to take the reins. Such a step would also
be out of touch with the wishes of the American people. A new poll by the Better World
Campaign shows that bipartisan support for
the UN remains high88 percent of Americans support active engagement at the UN.
This support is shared by Republicans and
Democrats alike.
The poll finds that a strong majority of
Americans, 61 percent, maintain a favorable
impression of the UN. An even greater majority of Americans, 67 percent, continue to
support the US paying its dues to the UN
on time and in full. When asked specifically
about UN peacekeeping dues, support increases further to 70 percent. This shows
that Americans recognize that the UN remains vital to our national interests, including combatting terrorism, handling

threats to international peace and security, and ending conflicts.


The UN also benefits the economy.
Over $500 million in UN contracts flow to
American companies each year in 30 different states, and according to a newly-released report by the city of New York, hosting the UN in New York City has a positive economic impact equivalent to hosting
seven Super Bowls.
And its not just the United States that
benefits from the UN. The UN is indispensable to tackling global challenges.
Nearly 40 percent of the worlds children
receive vaccinations from the UN, 80 million individuals in 80 countries receive food
from the UN, and 65 million refugees and
other displaced people are helped by the UN.
Members of Congress and the incoming
administration have an opportunity to work
with the new Secretary-General to achieve
real reforms that will strengthen the UNs
ability to carry out its life-saving work
around the world. We know from experience that staying engaged on the world stage
is the best way to advance American interests. Continued UN funding is vital to ensure that the US keeps its seat at the negotiating table.

The comfortable, economical, valuable energy-efficient home


by Freeman Allen

laremont is becoming an oasis of


homes with energy upgrades that
make them more comfortable and
more valuable, while also providing them
with lower utility bills.
Upgrades include improving insulation, eliminating
air leaks, optimizing heating and cooling systems and
installing solar. If any of these improvements seem like
something you might like to do to your home, consider
taking advantage of one or more of the many local resources and incentives that are available in Claremont.
There are several nonprofit groups offering helpful
information, free of charge, and large rebates are still
available. An excellent time to start the conversation
will be on Saturday, January 28, when these groups are
offering a chance to tour a home in Claremont that has
recently completed an energy upgrade. Tours will be
offered from 1 to 4 p.m. The location of the home is
available by RSVPing to http://tenres.com/HomeEnergyTourClaremont.
I first became aware of home energy efficiency upgrades about eight years ago at the Hartman-Baldwin
Design Build offices here in Claremont. At that time,
the community organization Sustainable Claremont was
just getting started. Devon Hartman taught us about
building science, and how we could make our homes
more energy efficient and more comfortable. Devon
knew that I was with Sustainable Claremont, so we got
together with others to form what came to be called the
Claremont Home Energy Retrofit ProjectCHERP.

Demystifying
SUSTAINABILITY
Chris Veirs from the city of Claremont was also an active participant and even created the CHERP logo.
The initial goal of the group was to get one percent,
about 130, of Claremont homeowners to make their
homes energy efficient through retrofits. That goal was
surpassed long ago and is now approaching 400 homes
in Claremont alone. Devon has since formed a new
nonprofit organization called CHERP Inc., now the
Community Home Energy Retrofit Project, and he has
taken his concept to other cities throughout California
and built a national reputation doing so.
All this activity around energy conservation can be
confusing, especially with the constant barrage of robo
calls that homeowners receive from unethical contractors. In Claremont, CHERP, Sustainable Claremont and
the city are working together with local community organizations to help homeowners sift through the noise
by providing helpful, unbiased information to help make
our entire town more energy efficient. The joint program
is called the Claremont Energy Challenge (CEC). Claremont, through CEC, is now in a nationwide competition
for the $5 million Georgetown University Energy
Prizeand more initiatives are planned for 2017.
At the state level, Energy Upgrade California (EUC)
is a massive initiative that provides large incentives to
participating homeowners who make improvements to

save energy. The program is supported by the California Public Utilities Commission, the California Energy
Commission, utility companies and others. EUC is
funded by investor-owned utility customers through a
charge added to their utility bills. Additional funds and
assistance are available to homeowners in Los Angeles
County.
Los Angeles County offers rebate programs and financing options to help reduce the overall costs of an
energy retrofit and to provide loans to pay for retrofit
costs not covered by rebates. Depending on the type of
work completed, there are up to $6,000 in rebates currently available, which can dramatically reduce overall
costs. The Energy Network (TEN), a nonprofit working
for LA County, provides additional assistance and is a
primary sponsoralong with CHERP, Sustainable
Claremont and the city through CECfor the home
tour on January 28. Local volunteers will be there to
talk about these exciting opportunities for your home.
Additional information about Los Angeles Countys
residential energy rebate program can be found online

Claremont COURIER/Friday, January 20, 2017

Claremonts David Allen gets


started chronicling his career

es been at it nearly 20 years, but Inland Valley Daily Bulletin columnist David Allen is just getting start-

ed.

The Claremont writers first chronological collection


of columns was released earlier this week through local
imprint Pelekinesis. It features dozens of articles penned
for the Bulletin from 1997 through 2000 and is available
locally at Rhino Records and Barbara Cheatleys.
The book, Getting Started, is rife with humor of every
ilk, from anecdotal to satiric and from deadpan to gallows.
Take a column written during a September 2000 heat wave
that had brow-mopping grumps complaining it was hotter than Hades.
Wondering how people can, in all good conscience,
bandy that phrase about when they had no clue what the
actual temperature of hell is, he goes straight to the source,
traveling via hand-basket.
As they chat, a stones throw from the Lake of Fire,
the devil marvels that Mr. Allen hasnt even broken a
sweat. Any denizen of the region can appreciate Mr.
Allens response on a pore-deep level.
Well, I live and work in the Inland Valley. I dont have
air conditioning at home or in my car. And Ive spent the
last few days baking under the sun at the LA County Fair
in Pomona.
Its one of Mr. Allens greatest gifts: blending wit with
regional reportage.
In an April 1999 column, he reported on one of
Pomonas best-kept secrets. The long-shuttered Fox Theater had begun showcasing lucha libre matches. The effect is a little sad, a little comical, Mr. Allen writes of
seeing Mexican freestyle wrestling in a once-glittering
movie palace. But at least the Fox is open again.
He then describes the exploits of actor-athletes like
Amenaza Blanca (White Threat) whonaked except
for white shorts, boots, kneepads and the requisite
headwearlooked like he rolled out of bed in his underwear, put on his mask and came down for action.
The Fox has since been renovated by the Tessier family, and now welcomes world-class music acts. Much else
has changed since Mr. Allens salad days at the Bulletin,
when Clinton was in his second term and the word twitter conjured bird chatter rather than a social media site
where he boasts 1600 followers.

Photo by Tom Zasadzinski


Mr. Allen poses as a space-age commuter for a
photo accompanying a 2000 piece he wrote on the
workplace of the future. The shot, taken at the Claremont Metrolink station, is included in his new book
Getting Started.

Still, Getting Started holds up well.


Theres a puckish piece, published on April 19, 2000,
called Going for Broke, Upland Spares No Expense on
Its Way to the Poorhouse.
While the City of Gracious Living is getting its bearings, it has experienced years of financial travail since the
columns publication. Notably, the former city manager and mayor were arrested for financial malfeasance in
2012.
Back then, however, Upland was just beginning to edge
toward bankruptcy through overspending. Mr. Allen responded to the crisis by personifying the town as a shopaholic, charting its movements through a blotter. In the first
entry, he reports the city was seen coming home with four
new pairs of shoes.
Rather than come through the front door as usual, the
city approached stealthily through
the back door on tiptoes, Nordstrom shopping bags tucked under
its arm, Mr. Allen quips. When
confronted by taxpayers, the city
explained, it had had a bad day
and shopping gives it a lift.
The City of Trees also plays its
part in Getting Started. Theres a
column about comedian Mort Sahl
performing at the Athenaeum, and
a less flattering piece about an outbreak of foodborne illness at Pomona Colleges Frary Dining Hall.
Another column documents an embarrassing photo
shoot, undertaken to accompany a piece on the workplace
of the future, involving Mr. Allen on the Claremont
Metrolink platform, holding a briefcase and wearing a
space suit.
Mr. Allen is a great fit for Pelekinesis, according to the
Claremont-based publishing companys founder Mark
Givens.
Davids observational humor is interesting because
its not always laugh-out-loud funny, its much more subtle, he said. Hes a newspaperman in a very archetypal way, observing and documenting. When you talk to him,
you can tell hes listening. Thats interesting to me.
In 2014 Mr. Givens published David Allens literary
debut Pomona A-Z, a collection of columns providing
an alphabetical guide to Claremonts easterly city. The
book sold 800 copies, brisk business for a local release.
Though hes shyer in person than behind the keyboard,
the Claremont writer found it gratifying to do book-signings.
Most readers of newspapers you never meet, so to have
people actually seek me outcome to an event and hand
me a $20 billis a very tangible way of letting me know
they appreciate what I do, Mr. Allen said.
With Mr. Givens receptive to a second book, the columnist dug out his early clips and reread them. Some I remembered fairly well, others I had forgotten. Some were
difficult to make direct eye contact with, Mr. Allen said.
About one of every four made him laughThe guy
who wrote these has a very similar sense of humor to me,
Mr. Allen jokedand those ended up in the book.
Getting a start
Like many humorists, Mr. Allen has a penchant for selfdeprecation, from his self-professed lack of game with
the fairer sex to a musculature indicative of a sedentary
profession.
In a column about helping a friend move, he talks about
how wrecked he was after a day of heavy lifting: Im
a journalist, which means my main form of physical activity is arching an eyebrow.
Dont let the grown-up Charlie Brown persona fool you,
though. In many ways, hes living the dream.
Mr. Allen has a dedicated following, both throughout
the region and in Claremont, where hes lived since 1999.
People feel comfortable coming up to me at Starbucks,

David Allen has released a new book chronicling the
early years of his writing about the Inland Empire.

at restaurants, in the street. They feel like they know me,


he said.
Hes also attained his lifelong goal of being a writer.
By third grade, young David was writing and illustrating
little mystery novels. He was on his high school newspaper and wrote a humor column for The Daily Illini while
at the University of Illinois.
Mr. Allen put in time at newspapers in northern California, then landed a gig at the Victor Valley Daily Press.
He moved south in 1997 when he got a job at the Bulletin, with Fontana as his initial beat. He began filing an
occasional guest column and, by summer of 1998, his column was appearing twice a week.
This split-personality life ended in 2001 when I became a full-time columnist, and the more universal approach to humor gradually faded as my columns became
more about local journalism than whimsy, he writes in
the forward of Getting Started.
Mr. Allen plans to release a new chronological collection
of his Bulletin columns every year.
I kind of wish it happened 10 years ago, Mr. Allen
said of his book-publishing career. Theres lots of catching up to do.
Along with Rhino and Barbara Cheatleys, Getting
Started is available at the Ebell Museum of History in
Pomona as well as at Pelekinesis.com and Amazon.com.
A launch party will be held Saturday, February 4, from
6 to 9 p.m. at Sonja Stump Photography, coinciding with
the First Saturday Art Walk. Mr. Allen will also hold a
talk and book-signing at Rhino Records in Claremont on
February 19 from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

Ben Evangelista

11

OBITUARIES

Gardener, WWII veteran, family man


Bernardino Ben Evangelista, a
longtime resident of Ontario, Upland
and Claremont, died peacefully on January 15, 2017. He was 94 years old.
He was born in Poggio, Italy in
1922, the only child of Teresa and Vincenzo Evangelista. He came to America
with his parents as a small boy and
grew up in Winnetka, Illinois near
Chicago. Mr. Evangelista was drafted
in World War II and served honorably
in the US Army Infantry in Europe. He
notably fought in Italy and participated
in the invasion of Green Beach in
southern France.
During the war, he visited his best
friends family in Cervaro, Italy to
bring food and supplies. There he met
and fell in love with his friends sister,

Domenica. He married her in Italy before the war ended, then brought her
back to America. The Evangelistas
moved to southern California, settling
in Ontario where they raised two
daughters, and brought Bens parents to
live with them.
Mr. Evangelista had a great reputation as an extremely hardworking
craftsman in the construction trades. He
helped build or restore many local
buildings, including the historic stone
building at the corner of Foothill and
Indian Hill boulevards. He was an avid
gardener and a wonderful cook. In his
later years, he became a health and fitness advocateand a dedicated fan of
Dr. Oz. He was in great shape for his
age and lived independently in Ontario

and Upland until he moved to Claremont Place in 2012, where he enjoyed


many friends. His family will remember him as a patriot, who served his
country and loved life.
His loving wife Domenica predeceased him in 1980. He is survived by
two daughters, Teresa Terri Shaner
(Terry) of Claremont and Cathy Reardon (Mike) of Lake Forest, Illinois, by
three grandchildren, Kristi Galo
(Shaner), Michael Shaner and Laura
Reardon, and one great-grandson,
Lucas Shaner.
Funeral services were held Thursday,
January 19 at Our Lady of the Assumption Church in Claremont.

The Pack barely squeaked by the Brahmas, 1-0, on a

Claremont showed superior athleticism, particularly

soccer can be a quirky game, all that effort came to
naught.

throw-in directly in front of the BrahLIFE
mas net, sophomore Sophie Jones
tipped an easy pass to senior Mackenzie Boulware, who
knocked it in.
The second half was a constant back and forth, with
the Brahmas getting a couple of really good chances to
tie, particularly on corner kicks. Special credit goes to
CHS goalkeeper Hollyn Carlton, who successfully
stopped every effort while demonstrating leadership as
well.
Claremont sophomore Janelle Gutierrez had a couple
of solid attempts on goal, including a heartbreaker with
about five minutes to play that went high just over the
net.
Ladies, we have to finish those, called out Claremont Coach Tim Tracey, showing a bit of frustration at
the missed opportunities. But the Brahmas, facing a superior opponent, clearly were willing to fight for every
advantage.
Coach Tracey expected the match to be tough.
Everybody plays hard against us, he said. Its league,
and what they dont have in size or athleticism that we
have, they are just going to play very hard against us.
The final part of the play just needs to be completed.
We are getting the ball deep into our area and bringing
it across well. We just have to finish those chances, he
continued.
Fridays game will mark the halfway point in league
play, and if Claremont keeps up the pressure, they could
be looking at a stellar year.
Yeah, we have had a good start to the season. We
just have to continue to get the job done, Coach Tracey
said.

on Friday, 80-63, but followed up with a 65-60 win on

the Bearcats. Kyle Scalmanini had a game-high of 26


points, followed by Marcus Williams with 10.
By contrast, against Ayala, Claremont came out
ahead and led throughout the game. Tyler Risher and
Scalmanini each had 18 points, with Williams at 14.
Claremont is now 14-6 and 2-1 in league. They face
Diamond Bar on Friday.

OUR TOWN

Sue and Jim Keith were recently given the Ruth Ordway Award by the League of Women Voters of the
Claremont Area for community service.

Keiths honored by League with


Ruth Ordway Award
Jim and Sue Keith received the Ruth Ordway
Award, which is presented annually by the local
League of Women Voters to a community member or
members who work mightily, as Ruth did, to promote
the common good.
The Keiths moved to south Claremont in the early
1970s, when Jim, after earning an engineering degree
from Stanford University, accepted a position at Kaiser
Steel Corporation in Fontana. Sue, who grew up in
rural Lassen County and graduated from California
State University East Bay, soon became involved in
community life. As they raised their family, their interests in local happenings and organizations grew.
Among other things, they noticed a bit of a divide between northern and southern portions of the city, and
became champions of south Claremont.
Not long after coming to Claremont, Ms. Keith
joined the League and served as board director for
housing and childcare. As her daughters went through
the local school system, she became more interested in
public education and, in 1986, was elected to the
Claremont Unified School District board of education.
She served on the board for 12 years, twice taking her
turn as president, as well as serving on the Baldy View
Regional Occupational Program Commission. Most
recently, Ms. Keith was chair of a League committee
to study higher education in California.
These experiences heightened her interest in higher
education. In 1999, she was elected to the Citrus Com-

munity College District Board of Trustees, a position


she holds to this day. Ms. Keith was elected to the
board of directors of the California Community College Trustees in 2013. She is an advocate for student
access to community college education and in her
spare time has campaigned for community college
funding in statewide elections. Ms. Keith has also
worked as a fund developer for local organizations
Uncommon Good, Project Sister and House of Ruth.
A spending 12 years with Kaiser Corporation, Mr.
Keith went on to become factory manager and then
vice president and general manager of the HON company, a manufacturer and distributor of office furniture. Since his retirement, he has spent much of his
time on two local programsClaremont After-School
Programs (CLASP) and the Committee for Safe and
Healthy Housing. Mr. Keith is CLASPs program coordinator and also serves as a site supervisor at a local
apartment complex meeting room, where elementary
age children come three afternoons a week to get help
with school work from volunteer tutors.
The Claremont Committee for Safe and Healthy
Housing was formed to address conditions in local
apartment complexes, especially some in south Claremont. Mr. Keith is chair of the committee, which
joined with city staff to form the Crime Free MultiHousing Program to work with property owners, managers and renters to eliminate illegal activity. The
program includes training apartment managers and
residents on how to make rental units safer. In addition
to his work with the crime-free housing project, Mr.
Keith served as a member of the citys ad hoc committee to make recommendations on a new police facility.

Free speech on campus: A


challenge for our time
Coinciding with the presidential inauguration,
Pomona College will host a public talk Free Speech
on Campus: A Challenge for Our Time by former US
Supreme Court law clerk Geoffrey R. Stone at 4:30
p.m. on Friday, January 20 at Bridges Hall of Music.
The right to free speech on the nations college and
university campuses became a hot topic during the
2016 presidential election and continues to be as the
new administration takes power. Mr. Stone will explore the reasons for these conflicts and will offer
thoughts on how colleges and universities should respond to them.
Mr. Stone chaired the University of Chicagos Committee on Freedom of Expression, whose statement on
freedom of expression has since been embraced by

13

other colleges and universities, and was endorsed by


the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education
(FIRE) as a model for faculty and student speech protection on campus.
A faculty member at the University of Chicago Law
School, Mr. Stone is the former law clerk to US
Supreme Court Justice William J. Brennan, Jr. and is
author of the award-winning book on constitutional
law Perilous Times: Free Speech in Wartime.

WEATHER

Major storms expected Friday


and Sunday
A potent Pacific storm Friday will be followed an even
stronger storm on Sunday. These two systems will be fueled by abundant sub-tropical moisture and, in combination with favorable upslope lifting, are expected to
generate heavy rainfall capable of producing local minor
street and small stream flooding.
Moderate to heavy snow above 4,000 to 6,000 feet
and strong gusty winds to 60 mph will be likely in
nearby mountain areas through the period.
A third less intense system is expected Tuesday after
which high pressure should return to bring more stable
conditions to the area.
Mostly cloudy Friday. Rain, becoming moderate to
heavy at times by afternoon with a possible thunderstorm. Expect a showery Friday night becoming partly
cloudy by early Saturday. Variable clouds Saturday
through early Sunday.
Rain Sunday, becoming heavy at times by afternoon
and evening. Rain, becoming showery by early Monday.
Variable cloudiness Monday becoming cloudy with
showers Tuesday. Scattered showers late Tuesday ending
by Wednesday morning.
Cool daytime highs, mostly in the 50s. Overnight
lows, mid-40s to upper-30s. Breezy at times with winds
to 20 mph.
Of particular interest, these storms are being driven
by winds aloft of 100 to 120 mph directly into and above
southern California and should be the strongest Pacific
storms so far this season locally.

Claremont restaurant week cookin until January 29

Casa 425 is serving up blue corn quesadillas, pictured, arepas con carnitas
and a chipotle chicken sandwich as
their Restaurant Week specials.

he best of the best in


Claremont cuisine will
be on display during the
fourth annual Claremont
Restaurant Week.

The event, which runs from January


16 through January 29 and put on by the
Claremont Chamber of Commerce in
conjunction with Discover Claremont,
will feature 16 different restaurants
Chamber CEO Maureen Aldridge
noted the enthusiasm surrounding the
event is a good indication of things to
come. I think its a great, great advertising opportunity for the city, she said.
The event initially took place in July,
but after some comments from restaurants and a desire to coincide with the
larger California Restaurant Month, it
was moved to January.

COURIER photos/Steven Felschundneff


A group of food bloggers photograph a plate of blue corn quesadillas at Casa
425 in the Village West on Tuesday night.

Participating restaurants are tasked


with creating specialty menus just for
event patrons. In previous years, the
Chamber called for the restaurants to
have prix fixe, or a three-course fixedprice menu, but that rule was relaxed for
2017.
We basically said to the restaurants
this year, do what you want, Ms.
Aldridge said.

While some restaurants stuck to the


prix fixe concept, others have created
menus full of local favorites and seasonal
offerings, some a la carte.
Ms. Aldridge said the 16 restaurants
participating is the max that weve had
in the food festivals short history, noting
the restaurants are ready to start.
The restaurants taking part in the event
represent the citys diverse culinary

palatefrom classical Italian mainstays


such as Tutti Mangia and Aruffos, to
modern fare such as Union on Yale and
Bardot, to local favorites like Viva
Madrid and Sacas Mediterranean Cuisine.
To kick off the event, a small party full
of food writers and bloggers was convened at Casa 425 to get the word out
about the Claremont restaurant scene.
The media participants were given the
opportunity to sample some of Casa
425s signature dishes, such as the blue
corn quesadilla, arepas con carnitas and
the chipotle chicken sandwich.
As each dish was served, the bloggers
crowded the plates, taking pictures of the
food at different angles for their social
media pages. The social media spike is
all in an effort to get local foodies interested in dining in the Claremont Village.
Casa 425 lounge manager Jason Cerswell noted the event is a great opportunity for restaurants to bring people in
during what is recognized as a down
month in the Village.
Ive said this before, but Claremont
supports Claremont, he said.

disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street

above. The sale will be made, but without covenant or
warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal
sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated
costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial
publication of the Notice of Sale is: $ 339,493.09. If the
Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the

property. You should also be aware that the lien being
auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this
property by contacting the county recorders office or
a title insurance company, either of which may charge
you a fee for this information. If you consult either of
these resources, you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on
this property. NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE

THIS STATE: All right, title, and interest conveyed to
and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described
property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described
as: More fully described in said Deed of Trust. Street Address or other common designation of real property: 4543
Coldwater Canyon Avenue Unit 7, Los Angeles, CA
91604 A.P.N.: 2362-006-033 The undersigned Trustee
disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street
address or other common designation, if any, shown
above. The sale will be made, but without covenant or
warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal
sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured
by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs,
expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $ 421,963.20. If the
Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the
successful bidders sole and exclusive remedy shall
be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the
successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The
beneficiary of the Deed of Trust has executed and delivered to the undersigned a written request to commence
foreclosure, and the undersigned caused a Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county
where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding
on this property lien, you should understand that there
are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will
be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing
the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically
entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property.
You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned
off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at
the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off
all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you
can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged
to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting
the county recorders office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should
be aware that the same lender may hold more than one
mortgage or deed of trust on this property. NOTICE OF
TRUSTEE'S SALE Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is
possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may
be less than the total debt NOTICE TO PROPERTY
OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may
be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of
the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not
present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale
date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may
call (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web site
http://www.altisource.com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/TrusteeServices.aspx using the file number assigned to this case 2016-02757-CA. Information
about postponements that are very short in duration or
that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or
on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

said Deed of Trust. Street Address or other common designation of real property: 15721 COBALT STREET
UNIT #106, LOS ANGELES (SYLMAR AREA), CA
91342 A.P.N.: 2604-009-067 The undersigned Trustee
disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street
address or other common designation, if any, shown
above. The sale will be made, but without covenant or
warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal
sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured
by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs,
expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $ 389,343.88. If the
Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the
successful bidders sole and exclusive remedy shall
be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the
successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The
beneficiary of the Deed of Trust has executed and delivered to the undersigned a written request to commence
foreclosure, and the undersigned caused a Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county
where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding
on this property lien, you should understand that there
are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will
be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing
the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically
entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property.
You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned
off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at
the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off
all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you
can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged
to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting
the county recorders office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should
be aware that the same lender may hold more than one
mortgage or deed of trust on this property. NOTICE OF
TRUSTEE'S SALE Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is
possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may
be less than the total debt NOTICE TO PROPERTY
OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may
be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of
the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not
present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale
date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may
call (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web site
http://www.altisource.com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/TrusteeServices.aspx using the file number assigned to this case 2016-02834-CA. Information
about postponements that are very short in duration or
that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or
on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Street Address or other common designation of real property: 850-852 East 79th
Street, Los Angeles, CA 90001 A.P.N.:
6029-003-003 The undersigned Trustee
disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common

remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust. The total

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS:
If you are considering bidding on this
property lien, you should understand that
there are risks involved in bidding at a
trustee auction. You will be bidding on a
lien, not on the property itself. Placing the
highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear
ownership of the property. You should also
be aware that the lien being auctioned off
may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be
responsible for paying off all liens senior
to the lien being auctioned off, before you
can receive clear title to the property. You
are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by
contacting the county recorders office or

a title insurance company, either of which


may charge you a fee for this information.
If you consult either of these resources,
you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed
of trust on this property. NOTICE OF
TRUSTEE'S SALE Note: Because the
Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less
than the total debt owed, it is possible that
at the time of the sale the opening bid may
be less than the total debt NOTICE TO
PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date
shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee,
beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to
Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.
The law requires that information about
trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy
to those not present at the sale. If you wish
to learn whether your sale date has been
postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit
this Internet Web site http://www.altisource.com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/TrusteeServices.aspx using
the file number assigned to this case 201602773-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or
that occur close in time to the scheduled
sale may not immediately be reflected in
the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the
scheduled sale. Western Progressive,

December experienced a relatively large drop-off in closings compared with November.


December also showed 32% fewer closings than the same month last year. However, it
wasnt a terrible sales month, with overall sales in the 20+ homes range. This is a
reflection of homes that typically entered escrow at the end of October and throughout
November, most of which remained in escrow before the holidays. Inventory dropped off
considerably, and currently comprises approximately 56 properties on the market in
Claremont. This is normal for this time of year, and is in fact noticeably higher than for
the same period last year, when inventory dipped into the forty-homes range. There is a
lot of buyer demand out there right now, so it is likely that the market will pick up more
quickly this year than it did in 2016.

WHAT GEOFF'S CLIENTS ARE SAYING . . .


Geoff exceeded our very high expectations in the recent sale of our Claremont Village property. We appreciated the professionalism, courtesy and speed with which he shepherded the process from start to finish, keeping us fully informed throughout. It is a pleasure to see a master at work!
V. Sathe & S. Sathe
All along the way, from the search, to offer, to escrow, to closing, the process was smooth and painless. We
were informed all along the way of what to expect and when. I cannot recommend Geoff Hamill highly
enough. He is a professional who has years of knowledge he generously shares.
J. Spera & A. Conway
Geoff did an outstanding job selling our Upland. His attention to detail was superior. We immediately recommended that our son list another Upland property with Geoff due to our satisfaction with the service provided.
S. Campbell & O. Campbell

Geoff was fantastic and professional with my recent real estate purchase. To be honest, I was a little reluctant to
call him because I thought he only serviced higher value homes, but he treated it like it was a million dollar deal
and was on top of every step in the process. He probably didn't know it at the time, but I was preoccupied with
my father being in and out of the hospital and I didn't have much time to be involved in the transaction. Geoff
T. Freeman & M. Freeman
took care of the whole thing and was a constant professional!
