Sewage suit settledNEWS: Casa de la Raza blasts News-Pressfor ‘unbalanced coverage,’ PAGE 2

City agrees to spend $26 million to fix polluted creeks

BY NICK C. TONKINDAILY SOUND STAFF WRITER

Officials for La Casa de la Raza held apress conference yesterday to denouncereports that the organization’s buildingwould be auctioned off by the county.Casa executives said an article pub-

lished by the Santa Barbara News-Presson March 25 entitled “La Casa de la Razaon the block: County ready to auctionproperty of organization plagued by con-fused finances and unpaid taxes,” con-tained misleading information about Casaand demanded that the paper retract thearticle.On Sunday the News-Press ran the

article on the front page, claiming thecounty is ready to auction off Casa’sbuilding. They claim the article was orig-inally published in the News-Press’Spanish-language newspaper, SantaBarbara Latino, Feb. 15.“For decades, La Casa de la Raza has

been a place where the community hasgathered to help, meet and keep alive thelegacy of Latino culture in SantaBarbara,” the article stated. “But timeshave changed and the entity that onceenjoyed great recognition now could beabout to disappear.”This infuriated Casa officials who

called for the conference said that Casa isprepared to pay the money the county isseeking. Casa Board of DirectorsPresident Marisela Márquez called theNews-Press’s actions “unconscionable”and “hurtful.”“The News-Press method of ‘news

reporting’ is at its core duplicitous and inthis case intentionally injurious. It seeksto lead the reader to believe that what isprinted is in fact researched,” Márquezsaid at a press conference yesterday.A reporter’s call to the News-Press

was directed to city editor ScottSteepleton, who said he did not have aresponse.

For 40 years, La Casa de la Raza hasbeen providing support services, educa-tion, and cultural arts to the communityfrom inside the Cesar E. Chavez Center,at 601 East Montecito Street.In December rumors began circulating

that the building would be put up for auc-tion by the county due to delinquent taxpayments. Casa officials denounced therumors, saying they didn’t believe theyowed the taxes and had been working toclear the matter up.Márquez said the article contained out-

dated information and no one had both-ered to call Casa directly.Casa’s executive director Raquel

Lopez said Casa is still in the process ofgetting the state to recognize its taxexempt status. It is prepared to pay off the

$85,000 debt by April 10 and seek arebate on the money once its nonprofitstatus has been sorted out with the state.“We’re confident that we’ll make the

full amount,” Lopez said.Lopez said the organization had

secured a donor willing to help with thepayment, though they had a number ofother options available to them.Clinton Donati, chief deputy tax col-

lector for the county, said Casa had beenin talks with the county about payment.Donati said Casa’s nonprofit status has tobe taken up with the state before thecounty can do anything.The auction process went on hold ear-

lier in the year as the state had ordered thecounty to adopt a new fee collection ordi-nance. While there are some delinquentparcels that will be put up because of thestatute of limitations, Casa is not amongthem.“Casa isn’t up against a deadline so

we’ve put off their sale for somemonths,” Donati said. “We’re hopeful forwhat they’ve said: that they’ll pay off thetaxes first and continue on with theirprocess to get their exemption.”Donati said it’s not unheard of for non-

profits to have some tax issues. Whentheir focus is on the community causes,organizations sometimes have troubleminding the books.“Because most charities are primarily

getting out there and providing publicservice, they may not be as good at paper-work,” Donati said.Lopez said it’s a shame that this is the

issue that gets highlighted with Casa andnot the myriad services that mean somuch to the community.“When an institution attacks La Casa

people respond because it means a lot tothem,” Lopez said. “It’s not about thepeople standing here today, but 40 yearsof a legacy of commitment and servicethat does not get reflected in the media.”

Santa Barbara Youth Council grows upBY KYLE ROKES

DAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENTOver the years, the Santa Barbara

Youth Council has been a voice for thosecitizens not old enough to vote.And city government has welcomed

its input on an array of matters from bul-lying and graffiti to when it came time tobuild the 1235 Teen Center and SkatersPoint.But the Youth Council has never been

recognized by the city as an official partof local government.That changed yesterday when the City

Council voted unanimously to adoptthem as a city advisory committee.

Susan Young, Neighborhood OutreachSupervisor and member of the commis-sion appointed last year to see the SBYouth Council become a formal commit-tee, said city staff recommended both ofthe Youth Council’s proposals — one todisband and start from scratch and theother to continue but with two less mem-bers and a two year term limit for theremaining 15.Young added that the Youth Council

recommended the latter.High School Freshman Eesha Kelkar

thanked the City Council for consideringthe youth group's realization as a legiti-mate political body for teens.

The Youth Council traces its rootsback to 1991 when it was formed underthe title of The Youth Task Force.A Santa Barbara City College student

named Leonardo Dorantes was stabbedto death on State Street and in response,the city council created the YTF as acommission to bring youth, police, localofficials and the community together toexamine the kinds of problems minorityand at-risk youth face.In their final report, the YTF found

that young people lacked any real voiceto be heard on issues affecting them.“Believing that young people have the

City settles sewagelawsuit for $26 million

BY KYLE ROKESDAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENT

For years, Santa Barbara locals havefought the city over letting too muchhuman and industrial waste seep intolocal creeks and beaches.So Channelkeeper, a local environ-

mental advocacy group, filed suit lastyear over what it saw as negligent prac-tices.In a settlement reached yesterday, the

City of Santa Barbara has agreed to com-mit more than $26 million over the nextfive years to improve its outdated andunhealthy sewage system.“Our agreement is a win-win-win for

Channelkeeper, the citizens of SantaBarbara, and the environment,” saidSherry Madsen, president of the group’sboard of directors.The group claimed the city violated

the Clean Water Act by not doing enoughto prevent sewage from entering storm

drains and ultimately, natural waterways.That Act prohibits anything but

stormwater from flowing into a stormdrain and sewage spills are simply illegal.“Santa Barbara used to be one of the

worst-polluting sewage agencies on theCentral Coast,” said Kira Redmond,executive director of Channelkeeper.“But as a result of (our) legal pressure, itwill soon be one of the best.”The $26 million will be spent to over-

haul the network that carries waste fromhomes, offices and businesses as well ason installing features like ‘rain gardens’throughout the city.It will also double in miles the amount

of sewer pipes the city repairs and replaces.Channelkeeper reminds residents that

sewage isn’t confined to what flows from

the loo, either. All sorts of pathogens,toxic pollutants, nutrients, oil and greasecount as sewage. They not only contami-nate groundwater and waterways, butcan threaten public health and hurt oreven kill aquatic life.Sewage spills can also damage prop-

erty and result in beach closures thatharm the local economy.The agreement was submitted to the

US Environmental Protection Agencyand the Department of Justice after bothparties signed it.If neither agency has any comment,

then it will be sent along to FederalDistrict Court.“This is a banner day for Santa

Barbara’s creeks and beaches, and for thecitizens and visitors who enjoy them andthe wildlife that depend on them,” saidRedmond.

Beach conditions in Santa Barbara have suffered for years due to the amount of human and industrial waste seeping into our local creeks.DAILY SOUND / File photo

NEWS IN BRIEF

Democratic lawmakers on Tuesday blasted police handling ofa racially charged case in which a neighborhood watch volunteershot dead an unarmed black teenager in Florida, accusing locallaw enforcement officials of botching the investigation.The lawmakers, speaking at a congressional forum attended

by the parents of the slain teenager, called for the immediatearrest of 28-year-old George Zimmerman, the white Hispanicwho shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin on February 26 in whatZimmerman said was self-defense.Florida law enforcement officials have faced intense criti-

cism in recent weeks from civil rights activists and others fornot arresting Zimmerman, who remains at large and in seclu-sion. Police say a state “stand your ground” law that allows peo-ple to use deadly force when they perceive danger in any pub-lic place has prevented them from making an arrest.

The Department of Justice on Tuesday charged a topCalifornia Democratic campaign treasurer with five counts ofmail fraud that caused a loss of over $7 million dollars to herclients, including Sen. Dianne Feinstein, court documents show.Kinde Durkee, who controlled the funds of roughly 400

political candidates and groups, was arrested in September 2011by federal agents and charged with criminal mail fraud.There were at least 50 victims of Durkee’s fraudulent

accounting, according to the additional charging documentsfiled with the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District ofCalifornia late on Tuesday.Durkee used money that belonged to her political campaign

clients to pay her mortgage, pay off charges on her credit cardfrom Disneyland and Amazon.com, and pay her own firm’sbusiness expenses, according to the court documents.

Gas price anger aimed at Obama

NEWS

More than two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the wayPresident Barack Obama is handling high gasoline prices,although most do not blame him for them, according to aReuters/Ipsos online poll released on Tuesday.Sixty-eight percent disapprove and 24 percent approve of how

Obama is responding to price increases that have become one ofthe biggest issues in the 2012 presidential campaign.In the past month, U.S. fuel prices have jumped about $0.30 per

gallon to about $3.90 and the Republicans seeking to replace theDemocrat in the November 6 election have seized upon the issue toattack his energy policies. The disapproval reaches across partylines, potentially spelling trouble for Obama in the election,although the online survey showed voters hold oil companies or for-eign countries more accountable than politicians for the price spike.“Obama is getting heat for it but people aren’t necessarily

blaming him for it,” said Chris Jackson, research director forIpsos public affairs. BBEEAACCHH SSTTAATTUUSS RREEPPOORRTT :

High court weighs all ornothing on health care

WASHINGTON (Reuters) — The fateof President Barack Obama’s healthcareoverhaul will be on the line onWednesdaywhen the Supreme Court considerswhether the entire law must fall withoutits centerpiece insurance mandate.Completing three days of historic

arguments, the nine justices will heararguments on whether the rest of the law,Obama’s signature domestic accomplish-ment, can survive should the court decideCongress exceeded its powers by requir-ing all Americans buy insurance by 2014.The Obama administration faced skep-

tical questioning on Tuesday from thecourt’s five-member conservative majorityon the insurance requirement. But it wasunclear whether it would strike it down orlet it stand.Aruling on the mandate that most people

obtain health insurance or face a penaltyappeared likely to come down to ChiefJustice John Roberts and Justice AnthonyKennedy, two conservativeswho pummeledthe administration’s lawyer with questions.If even one of the five conservative

Republican appointees joins the four lib-eral Democratic appointees on the court,the law would be upheld. If the five con-servatives remain unified, the law wouldfall. A ruling is expected by late June.The justices on will also look at

whether Congress had the power underthe U.S. Constitution to require that thestates dramatically expand the Medicaidhealthcare program for the poor, provid-ing coverage for an estimated 17 millionAmericans.

FINANCIAL STAKESThe stakes could not be higher, finan-

cially, legally and politically.

The law, which constitutes the U.S.healthcare system’s biggest overhaul innearly 50 years, seeks to provide healthinsurance to more than 30 million previ-ously uninsured Americans and to slowdown soaring medical costs.The law has wide ramifications for

company costs and for the health sector,affecting insurers, drugmakers, devicecompanies and hospitals.

Most people have a reflex-ive fear reaction to spiders andsnakes. Intellectually, theyunderstand that most of thesecreatures are harmless, butbecause they know some aredeadly, the instinctive reactionis cautious apprehension. Howmany of us smash dead anyspider unfortunate enough tobe found in our homes? We erron the side of personal safety.Such instinctual prejudice is

difficult to disassemblebecause it is hardwired into us byNature can subvert our objectivity. Thissurvival mechanism explains profiling,which is clearly a form of prejudice butbased on legitimate concerns for self-preservation.Since 9/11, many of us are suspicious

of people who fit the profile of Muslim.Most Muslims are not terrorists, butmost terrorists these days are Muslims.Religious and ethnic profiling ofMuslims, therefore, continues. It wasrecently revealed that the NYPD hasbeen extensively spying on Arab-Americans in and around New YorkCity. But, because this is perceived asproactive self-defense, there has beenlittle national outcry over it.The killing of unarmed, 17 year-old

Trayvon Martin by a Sanford, Floridaneighborhood watch volunteer was inno small part a consequence of profil-ing. The general consensus is thatbecause Martin was a young black malewalking in an upscale residential neigh-borhood at night, he was perceived as alikely criminal by Zimmerman. Mostprobably had Martin been white,Zimmerman would not have confrontedhim at all, and if he had, he would nothave shot him.

This ugly incident has deto-nated an explosion of nationaloutrage spraying shrapneleverywhere, even up to theWhite House. The FBI andDepartment of Justice willreview the incident. The gov-ernor of Florida has appointeda special prosecutor to do thesame.So, are we OK with profil-

ing Muslims, but not OK withprofiling young black males?When and against who is pro-

filing justified?There is no doubt that young black

men have been and continue to be pro-filed and harassed by police in commu-nities across the nation. Certainly someof this is blatant racism, but much of itis instinctual prejudice.I suspect that most people, especially

older white people, even if they like tothink they are enlightened and unpreju-diced in matters of race, are suspiciousof and on guard around unfamiliaryoung black males. People may under-stand that most young black males arenot dangerous criminals, but their per-ception is that most violent crime iscommitted by young black males—aperception supported by credible statis-tics and reinforced by popular culturalstereotypes.It is hard then for folks to get around

their reflexive cautious apprehension ofyoung black men, and not to err on theside of personal safety. Such an atmos-phere of mistrust can have terrible unin-tended consequences especially when itis embraced by law enforcement.As America expands the police state

with a proliferation of various armedsecurity agencies, the opportunities forand the incidents of police abuse

increase. Give a bully a badge and a gunand you get a very dangerous bully.Trayvon Martin was killed by an agentof police authority—an authority thatwas quick to exonerate his killer.And, as with every such incident

involving guns, this one has ignitedrenewed hysteria to disarm the public. Ifthat happened who would be leftarmed?—criminals and thugs, eitherwith or without badges. Better that wekeep our guns to defend ourselvesagainst anyone who would prey on us.This tragic incident has also aroused

vehement denunciations of Florida’senhanced self-defense law, aka “standyour ground”, a law shared in someform by 21 other states. Would “be avictim or go to jail” be a preferablelaw?Zimmerman’s attempt to invoke the

“stand your ground” law as a defensefor killing Martin does not render thatlaw defective. That law does not sanc-tion people to hunt down and confrontothers and then use deadly force asZimmerman did against Martin. It sim-ply affirms the fundamental right of citi-zens to actively defend themselvesagainst unprovoked attack.The essential issue in the Trayvon

Martin case is neither guns nor self-defense laws it is how profiling coupledwith abuse of police authority canundermine fundamental civil rights,even resulting in the unjustified use oflethal force.On the night he was killed, Treyvon

Martin was only guilty of being black.Maybe he was just trying to stand hisground when confronted by a thug—athug who was armed while he was not.

Instinctual racial profiling

DEAR EDITOR: Last Friday, VicePresident Joe Biden spoke to folks inMiami about Medicare, and laid out aclear contrast between PresidentObama’s and Mitt Romney’s plans for it.While Romney plans to end Medicare aswe know it and make seniors pay more,President Obama is working to strength-en Medicare and close the famedMedicare prescription drug “doughnuthole,” which forces some seniors to paythousands of dollars for prescriptionmedications out of pocket. It’s just oneway the President is making sure thatwhen people retire, they can do it secure-ly — and with dignity.Of all the GOP candidates, Mitt

Romney’s been leading the fight to repealhealth reform. Did you know that if thelaw is overturned, up to 129 million peo-ple would continue to be at risk of beingdenied insurance due to pre-existing con-ditions? It’s scary to think what wouldhappen if this reform is rolled back.

If Obamacare is repealed, here’sanother of the first things to go: access topreventive care. Many basic preventiveservices like mammograms, cancerscreenings, and bone density tests forosteoporosis are available at no addition-al cost. These services can prevent sick-ness, and also catch it early — makingtreatment easier and less invasive.There’s no doubt that if the GOP got

their way and repealed Obamacare, sen-iors would be one of the groups hit hard-est. Last year, millions of seniors and dis-abled Americans relied on Medicare forquality health care — and almost 26 mil-lion received at least one preventiveservice free of cost. Thanks to PresidentObama’s plan to close the Medicare“doughnut hole,” seniors saved an aver-age of $600 last year on prescriptions.One of the biggest achievements of

Obamacare is that people will no longerbe denied coverage because of pre-exist-ing conditions. What’s considered a pre-

existing condition? Everything from highblood pressure to asthma to cancer orheart disease. And they’re more commonthan you may think — up to half ofAmericans under the age of 65 have one.If Romney and the GOP have their way,they’d immediately roll this back —essentially telling folks they’re on theirown.

I couldn’t be more proud of thechanges put in place by Obamacare --and I bet you’re proud, too. So the nexttime you hear someone knockObamacare, fight back. You’ve got thefacts to back you up.

Confessions of a flight attendant“Cruising Attitude” by Heather Poolec.2012, William Morrow$14.99 / $16.99 Canada263 pages

BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYERTHE BOOKWORM SEZ

Sleep was all you wanted, but it was-n’t going to happen.You knew as soon as you buckled

yourself in, that it didn’t look promis-ing. Your Chatty-Cathy seatmatepounced on you right away with friend-ly questions that weren’t deflected byclosed-eyes-as-hint. Then the kid behindyou kicked the back of your seat,thumpa-thumpa-thumpa, before hebegan to bawl.You knew how he felt: you wanted to

throw a tantrum yourself.Instead, you snagged an airline atten-

dant, who tried to make things better foryou. And in the new book “CruisingAttitude” by Heather Poole, you’ll seethat you had a chance to make thingsbetter for her, too.Heather Poole never wanted to be an

airline attendant.There was always another, better job

waiting for her. Sales, maybe, or some-thing else, she wasn’t sure. She appliedfor airline attendant training only

because of the perks, especially the freeflights.The mistake was in mentioning that.She wasn’t accepted.A couple years later, when the other,

better job hadn’t materialized, Pooletried again and soon found herselfworking for a small, regional Texas air-

line. There, she flew short trips and washome the same night, working underrule-bending conditions that passengers,fortunately, rarely knew about.Then one day, she realized that first-

class wasn’t just a spot in the plane.Poole wanted to work with a bigger air-line that traveled wider, so she appliedfor (and was given) training with anunnamed national carrier.But becoming an attendant on a

major airline wasn’t for cowards.Poole and her fellow schoolmates

endured weeks of attendant boot camp.Prospectives and newbies weredrummed out or quit in droves butPoole persevered and graduated, withNew York City’s airports as home base.In this book, she writes about crazy

co-workers and frustrating fliers. Sheexplains why dating a co-flier isn’t agreat idea and why your determinationto join the Mile High Club could getyou into a mile-high pile of trouble. Sheshares some “amazing moments,”brushes with fame, and some tips ongetting the best service and the mostcomfort the next time you take to theair.“Cruising Attitude” is a fun book.

history. Known as ObamaCare, this2,700 page bill was hatched in the deadof night, behind closed doors and blindlysigned by members of Congress.Two years later, a more informed

American public rejects ObamaCare andwants it tossed out. A recent Gallop Pollsays 72% of Americans, regardless ofpolitical affiliations, believe ObamaCareis unconstitutional.According to Mike Brownfield of the

Heritage Foundation, polls show 53% ofAmericans favor repeal and 60% ofphysicians believe the law will have anegative impact on over all patient care.There are more good reasons to

oppose ObamaCare. The latestCongressional Budget Office (CB0)reports 20 million Americans could losetheir employer-sponspred healthcarebenefits and projecting through 2022,

ObamaCare could cost as much as$2.134 Trillion. Then too, individual andemployer mandate penalties could hit$221 billion. Is this what we want?Then there’s the issue of the individ-

ual mandate that forces every Americanto buy government dictated health insur-ance or pay a penalty.Is this constitutional? If so, the gov-

ernment could force us to buy anythingthey want.But it doesn’t stop there. According to

Alzene Senger, from the HeritageFoundation, ObamaCare provisions willincrease taxes on families earning over$250,000, add a new tax on investments,impose limitations on Health SavingsAccounts + Flexible Spending Accounts,penalize married couples, violate reli-gious liberty, and impose a premium taxon health insurers. This is insanity.Starting Monday, March 26-28, the

Supreme Court will hear oral argumentsabout whether ObamaCare is

Constitutional. During this landmarkcase, the justices will decide whether theTax Anti-Injunction Act bars judicialreview of ObamaCare until the mandatetakes effect in 2014, if the individualmandate is constitutional, whether themandate is severable from the rest of thelaw and if the Medicaid expansion of thelaw is constitutional.This ObamaCare Supreme Court

Case. will be one of the most importantcases of the century and will set theprecedent for hundreds of future legalrulings. The Court’s decisions willdetermine if there are any limits left towhat the federal government can requireregarding personal and private decisions,including life and death.Pay attention America. Express your

views to the members of Congress and tothe Supreme Court. Your freedoms, lib-erties and lives are at stake.

But you’ll also experience a lot of tur-bulence when you read it.It takes plenty of work and dedica-

tion to be an airline attendant, as authorHeather Poole proves.Training was exhausting, and air-

lines enforce employee rules that are

followed without exception. Days“off” aren’t always off, and attendantssometimes work sick or else lose theirjobs.That part is interesting, but Poole

truly shines when she gives readerswhat they came for; namely, dirt on co-workers, customers, and corporate.Unfortunately, that’s just less than halfthe book and it’s plagued by name con-

fusion and mid-thread thought-switch-ing that really rattle a reader.Overall, though, despite its excess

baggage, I think this book is worth aread because, for both traveler andattendant, its perks outweigh the irks.Just beware that you’ll want to buck-

le in, however, because “CruisingAttitude” is a bit of a bumpy ride.

City Council selectsRDA oversight board

BY KYLE ROKESDAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENT

Now that redevelopment agencies through-out the state have been scrapped, the SantaBarbara City Council has taken steps to form anew agency to succeed the one here in town.On Wednesday, the council voted to

approve appointments to the seven-memberoversight board tasked with picking up wherethe RDA left off.As of now, the board's members are

Chandra Waller, appointed by the SantaBarbara County Board of Supervisors, JimArmstrong, city administrator and appointedby the mayor, Renee Ball, appointed by theFlood and Water district, Meg Jette, appointedby the superintendent of schools, BrianFahnestock, appointed by the Chancellor ofthe City College district, and assistant cityadministrator Paul Casey, alsoappointed by the mayor.The seventh seat remains empty but will be

a member of the public selected by the CityCouncil.Brian Bosse, former Redevelopment

Supervisor, explained to the Council the legal

battle redevelopment agencies lost in the statesupreme court last year.He also told the members that before the

RDA’s inheritors can begin work, the moneythey’ll decide how to use needs to be author-ized.And that won’t happen until after the coun-

ty and a third party audit and certify the state'spayment schedule to Santa Barbara.Bosse said the State Controller has the final

say on what funds, if any, go to anyone.Steve Wiley, the city attorney, commented

that there would likely be litigation somewherein the state from any one or a number of com-munities fighting to keep those much-neededdollars coming fromSacramento.He said it’s “a question of whether and

when it was a binding contract,” referring tothe arrangements between cities and the capi-tal before the economic crunch.Wiley also stressed that it isn't certain

whether the courts will side with any decisionby the state controller to withhold money.“There’s always the chance someone will

go to the court of appeals,” he said.
