VOL. 112 NO. 11 IMPERIAL COUNTY, CA. 92250 THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 2016 Calexico School Board Considering Bond Measure By Mario Conde The Calexico School Board will consider placing a bond measure at the November ballot if they can get sufficient support from the community. The Calexico School Board met in special session Monday, March 14, to discuss the possibility of putting a bond measure on the ballot for the improvement of school facilities in the district. The CUSD Board of Trustees had previously heard presentations from consulting firms such as MTA Mission Trail Advisors, Urban Futures, DS&C, and Caldwell, Flores & Winters Inc. for and asked to be considered to be hired as their financial consultants for this bond measure. Mei Randle, Assistant Superintendent-Busines Services, spoke about the status of Measure J funds that was approved by voters in 2004 by more than 55% authorizing the issuance and sale of general obligation bonds, not to exceed $30,000. The funds would to facility improvements and capital improvement projects. Some Measure J funds where misspent and that led to a forensic audit that recommended stronger internal controls but found no evidence of fraud. Randle said they need to remove the negative stigma of Measure J and promote what was accomplished by Measure J such as the construction of Cesar Chavez Elementary, the Enrique Camarena School Site, and the Calexico High School modernization. "Too many projects where promised under Measure J that could not be met because of lack of funding." Randle said. The next steps for Measure J are to re-establish the Citizens Oversight Board in order to continue using its funds that have not been used since 2012. Randle finalized her presentation highlighted the ongoing projects going on right now such as the construction of the new swimming pool, the remodeling of CHS Varner Gym, new Ward Field bleachers, new concession stand and bathrooms at football Continued on page 3 FIRE AT INFERNO RESTAURANT PAGE 2 CALEXICO FAMILY STYLE BUFFET CLOSES PAGE 2 IMPERIAL COUNTY SUPERVISORS HONOR...

The event, coordinated by Brawley senior advocate John Hernandez, brought together groups and clubs from Calexico and Brawley to the Imperial Valley Expo. "We did this for the Fair a couple of years ago," said Hernandez. "Last year, they fair tried to do it themselves and it didn't work, so they asked me to come back!" Due to shade concerns, the seniors day event was moved from the Calico stage near the north entrance to the Plaza's stage east of the main building. More than 300 seniors and supporters arrived to watch and cheer their fellows. Performances during the afternoon included the Calexico Senior Aerobics class, led by STORIES INSIDE!

Tribune-Weekly-Chronicle Thursday, March 17, 2016 PAGE 02 Family Style Buffet Closes After Two Decades Of Service By Mario Conde One of Calexico's longest running restaurants closed down unexpectedly last week as Family Style Buffet is no longer in business. For more than 20 years, Family Style Buffet was one of A “CLOSED” SIGN hangs over Family Style Buffet in Calexico. The restaurant closed for good last week. Mario Conde Photo. the favorite places for people in Mexicali and Imperial Valley to eat and was owned by Calexico Chamber of Commerce immediate past president, Carlton Hargrave. The restaurant opened in 1993 as part of the Hometown Buffet franchise but later decided to separate itself and become a local restaurant. The restaurant continued with its normal operations and recently finished its latest remodeling of the interior restaurant. Back in 2014, Family Style Buffet received funding from the Local Entity 2012 Competitive Mitigation Program for business and workforce development. Hildy Carrillo, Executive Director of the Calexico Chamber of Commerce, said that among the reasons that Family Style Buffet closed was because of the peso devaluation, the increase in minimum wage that caused the restaurant to have low sales in recent months. "Family Style was hit several factors recently that led to its closure." Carrillo said. It is yet to be determined if the current location will host another restaurant or a business establishment going forward. Calexico Economy Suffers This is not the first restaurant that closed its doors this year in Calexico. Carrows closed its doors late last year after its 20 years lease with the building expired. Burger King in Imperial Avenue also shut down early 2014 after having low sales at their current location and decided to close down. However, new businesses have opened in Calexico such as Panda Express next to Walmart and an ALDI store will open in the next few months. It was announced recently that B.H. Properties LLC sold the the old Kmart building in Calexico and the adjacent properties. B.H. Properties sold the 145,378 square foot property to an affiliate of Pacific Properties Group Inc. for $5.3 million. Built in 1982 and situated on 10.7 acres, Dollar Tree and Fallas Paredes anchor the center. Among the clients that Pacific Properties have is ULTRA, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Verizon, Safeway, Michaels, Smart & Final, Best Buy, Lucky, among others. County And IID Launch Restoration Focused “SaltonSeaNow” Website Recognizing the importance of 2015 and 2016 at the Salton Sea, Imperial Irrigation District and Imperial County have joined forces on a new public awareness effort to highlight the challenges, recent success and progress being made to restore the Salton Sea, avert a public health crisis and develop renewable energy in the region. Components of the campaign include an updated website, outreach through print media and social media platforms, three display billboards at the Sacramento airport and two highway billboards in Imperial and Coachella valleys. “The County of Imperial remains committed to Salton Sea Afternoon Blaze Leaves Inferno Restaurant Damaged But Still Open By Chris Furguson Brawley’s Inferno Restaurant suffered a minor fire towards the back of their building on the afternoon of Friday, March 11. Citizens alerted the Fire and Police Departments and safety crews responded within minutes. The blaze was extinguished shortly after arrival. While the fire is currently under investigation by the Brawley Fire Department, restaurant personnel believe the cause was old and faulty wiring that ignited, with a moderate breeze fueling the blaze. The blaze was concentrated on the rear of the building and the patio’s outdoor stage. Damage to the stage caused the cancellation of a scheduled concert and has put future events in jeopardy.

This was not the first fire to affect the corner of North Plaza Park and Main Street in Brawley’s downtown area. In September 2012, the former Superior Furniture location was destroyed in a fire that was part of a string of downtown blazes that hit the city over six months. The perpetrators of those fires were later discovered to be teenage thieves using the blazes to hide their other crimes. Investigations by the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms eventually led to the arrest of the arsonists. In early 2015, entrepreneur Raymond Babb opened Inferno 800 as an upscale “artisan eatery and has allowed his restaurant to become a center for entertainment and other events in the city. BRAWLEY’S INFERNO RESTAURANT suffered a fire last Friday. The downtown eatery remains open, pending repairs. Chris Furguson Photo. restoration,” stated District 4 Supervisor Ryan Kelley.

Through this campaign, we hope to keep the public informed and ready to engage on advocacy efforts that may arise in 2016.” The website features a dramatic animation of the decline of the sea, information on IID’s petition to the State Water Resources Control Board, local poverty and asthma demographics, information on the potential for renewable energy development in the region and the latest news on upcoming public workshops and key deadlines for Salton Sea related matters.

The check was approved last month. Mario Conde Photo. Since late January of this year, the Brawley Chamber of Commerce has been led by Interim Director Katie Beth Luna. Luna, formerly with the Imperial Valley Small Business Development Center, took over from Jason Zara after two and a half years at the position. A transplant from Los Angeles, came to the Valley eight years ago for a visit and moved to Imperial County five years ago. “I love the Valley,” said Luna in an exclusive interview with the Weekly-Chronicle. “It feels like a second home and I love the people here.” While in the interim position, Luna has been involved in organizing several events, such as farmers markets and chamber networking mixers. “Each category of event has it’s own special moments,” said the business and show them off to the rest of the Chamber. For grand openings, everyone is happy. I really enjoy all of them.” While Luna ahs been serving as Interim Director, a committee of Brawley Chamber members have been working on hiring a new permanent director. The process has included application review and interviews. While Luna applied for the permanent position, she was not selected for an interview. “There were several applicants,” Luna stated, adding that the a new director could be announced as soon as early April. Brawley has gone through several directors over the years, with few lasting more than three years in the position. With that, Luna does have advice for her eventual replacement. “Don’t stress out,” said Luna but if you support your chamber then your chamber will support you.” CURRENT INTERIM BRAWLEY Chamber Director Katie Luna will be replaced by a new, permanent director by the beginning of April.

School Board Trustee Eric Ortega said that school facilities are in a dire need of repair and they should take the opportunity to rectify that and have better school facilities, he said. Board President Ciro Calderon said that schools in Calexico need better facilities and need to convince the residents that they will get their monies worth. "Some schools need to be complete rebuilt and need a big overhaul but we need to be very careful who we trust to help us with this bond measure." Calderon said. Trustee Lorenzo Calderon Jr. said that the District is in a healing process because of the past Measure J bond. "We still feel the scars of that fund and I don't think right now the voters will support and get behind this measure. Our bonding capacity is $22 million but the reality is that we need $190 million I think we should pay for our existing debt and come up other numbers." Calderon Jr. Superintendent Maria Ambriz told the board that parents have participated on the LCAP meetings and have showed their interest in improving Calexico schools academically and structurally. "The best thing we can do to is to pull our community and talk to them about this bond measure that will be used to improve our school." Ambriz said. "I can take my superintendent cap off and speak as a parent and have the legacy of this board and future boards is to have the Calexico community look forward to better school by investing these onetime monies wisely." Ambriz stated. The board agreed to move forward and choose a firm next meeting that will help them do the polling with district resident and determine with there is enough support to but the bond in November. Trustee Ciro Calderon suggested having townhall meetings with parents to talk to about this bond measure.

Mexican border crossing card holders who plan to visit the U.S. for more than 30-days and or will travel more than 25 miles from the border during the upcoming travel season, are urged to obtain the essential document early instead of waiting until the day of travel. “During holidays we tend to experience an increase in traffic at the ports of entry, so we urge travelers to obtain the I-94 permit as much as a week or two early to avoid congestion and potential delays,” said Pete Flores, Director of Field Operations for the ports of entry on the California border with Mexico. “If they apply early, they will obtain the required document faster and more conveniently. Travelers may obtain the permit 24 hours a day at the Calexico downtown port of entry and 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. at the Calexico East port.” At the Andrade port travelers may obtain the permit between the hours of 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. All traveling family members need to be present during the I-94 application process. Those requesting the permits must be able to establish financial solvency and proof of residency outside the U.S., and must demonstrate that they have sufficiently strong ties to their country of origin including a home abroad they do not intend to abandon. Applicants who present a border crossing card are not eligible to work in the United States. When crossing the border, travelers must declare all agriculture products such as meats, fruits, vegetables, and holiday decorations that may have hay or straw as an ingredient. Many of these items are not allowed into the U.S. due to possible insects and diseases that could harm the nation’s agricultural industry. CBP is reminding the traveling public that cascarones (confetti-filled eggshells) are restricted to quantities of 10 per passenger and the shells may be decorated or etched but they must be empty, clean and free of any egg residue. Cascarones are a restricted commodity by CBP in order to prevent further spread of Newcastle Disease through contaminated eggshells. Newcastle Disease is a highly contagious, fatal viral disease that affects a substantial number of bird species, attacking respiratory, nervous and digestive systems. Mortality is up to 90 percent of exposed birds. In addition, Kinder Chocolate Eggs are banned for sale and import into the United States because they contain a toy surprise hidden inside that poses a choking/aspiration hazard for children younger than three years of age. The Kinder Eggs contain small toy parts which violate the Small Parts Regulation issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. CBP officers have the responsibility to inspect travelers and their belongings. This may include luggage, vehicle, and the search of a person, and is meant to enforce our laws as well as protect travelers. Imperial County Honors...

Half-Million In Cocaine Seized In Calexico U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at the Calexico East port of entry arrested a 23-year-old woman Saturday after discovering approximately $530,000 worth of cocaine, and about $25,000 worth of heroin stashed in the doors and behind the seats of the rental car she was driving. At about 7:30 a.m. on March 12, the woman entered the Calexico East border crossing driving a 2008 Nissan Sentra sedan. A CBP officer referred the woman and her vehicle for additional inspection. During the inspection, officers utilized the port’s imaging system and detected anomalies in Arrests.....................from page one Imperial County Sheriff Office. "This is technology used by ICAC San Diego in which all the agencies that are part of this operation use this technology for investigations." said Sgt. Jimmy Duran. When asked if this operation was going to continue and investigate online child predators, Loera said that the operation was only for nine days where there was a lot intense work. He said however that there is a task force being formed to tackle online predators and support the D.A. Office in their efforts to hire more staff to tackle this issue. "Our children are exposed to this on a daily basis and there is a lot of abuse to them because of this." D.A. Otero said, "We have two year olds being victims and that is something we deal on a daily basis and that is why it is important to be involved in this."

A CBP narcotics detector dog alerted to the anomalous areas, leading officers to the discovery of 14 tape-wrapped packages that were concealed inside the vehicle’s doors and in each of the four seat backs. Thirteen of the packages field-tested positive as cocaine and yielded a total weight of more than 35 pounds, and the remaining package tested positive as heroin, weighing almost three pounds. The woman, a U.S. citizen and resident of Riverside, was arrested and turned over to the custody of Homeland Security Investigations agents for further processing. She was later transported to the Imperial County Jail to await arraignment. CBP seized the vehicle and narcotics. PRESENTATION HONORING ROB Scott for 27 years of service to the County.

Tribune-Weekly-Chronicle Thursday, March 17, 2016 PAGE 05 The Latest News By Mario Conde I would like to start by thanking everyone for supporting this column for the last three years. This month we celebrate the third anniversary of the "Latest News" here in the Calexico Chronicle newspaper and feels like yesterday when I started writing the column. It was always a goal of mine to write a column and talk about what I feel and about important subjects. Three years ago I decided to ask Steve Larson if I could write my own column for the Chronicle. He got back to me days later giving me the green light to start writing a column the first week of every month. It's been a great ride so far where I've put forward a vision of Calexico and what needs to be done. My thanks also go to publisher Brenda Torres for giving me the opportunity of expanding my column to twice every month. Sadly, in the nearly eight years that I had the pleasure of working for the Calexico Chronicle I have seen Calexico in its worst shape. It started in 2008 with a financial crisis that layoff many employees, and earthquake that affected many businesses, the revolving door of city managers, dirty elections, dirty politics, and a City Council that is dysfunctional. It gives good material for news articles but that “The Latest News” Celebrates Its Third Anniversary! is not what Calexico should be. Many people are trying to diminish the value of Calexico's role in the Imperial Valley and what the city can achieve. The goal of my column is to create a robust political conversation that looks at the issues and moves Calexico into the premier city the rest of the valley wants us to be. During the last three years I have stated that Calexico needs to focus on an aggressive plan for economic development in order to bring to bring high level industrial jobs as well as retail. Calexico's main focus should be to attract new jobs to the city. The City should have an aggressive plan to get real estate brokers, developers, and investors bring jobs. The current situation calls for the immediate action and I have promoted that in different ways to encourage it and have the council take action on this. The City should develop and economic development plan and a border impact study to determine who Calexico can capture the Mexicali shopper that is fleeing to El Centro. The political conversation is not being carried by our leadership in the Calexico City Council so I took it upon myself to start the conversation and have this column as the avenue for it to happen. You may not agree with me all the time or with my ideas but the goal is to have people talk and spark a debate. Thank you all for following this column every month. Election Time…… And if you a loyal reader of my column you should know that I love election season that is now underway now that filing time has closed. In the new IID Division 4, Guillermo Hermosillo, Daniel Romero, Eric Ortega, Mohammed Asiad, and Calexico Mayor Joong Kim will be running for the vacant position left by Steve Benson. For County Supervisor District 2 seven have pulled documents and have intention to run and replace Jack Terrazas. Alex Cardenas, Cheryl Walker, Pompeyo Tabarez Jr., Luis Plancarte, Diahna Garcia-Ruiz, Claudia Camarena, Pete Rodriguez. Supervisors Ryan Kelley and Michael Kelley will run unopposed and will be there for another term. Congrats to both! Let the 2016 election cycle begin! Change Of Location Adds Visibility To Brawley Farmers Market By Chris Furguson The Brawley Chamber of Commerce held their latest “Second Saturday” Farmers Market during the mid-day hours of Saturday, March 12, 2016 at the North Plaza area of downtown Brawley. While the official theme of this particular street fair was St. Patrick’s Day, it still had the feel of an average Brawley farmers market, with the usual selection of local craftmen and artisans, food vendors, informational booths and other groups that typically arrive at these events. The change of location was made to increase visibility for travelers headed west along Main Street and to utilize the north plaza area, with the hopes that the kiosk and surrounding park could be used in the future. The change of location did little to stymie enthusiasm as hundreds of people came to the market to enjoy the festivities, much less other markets or events taking place around Imperial County. To close out the 2015-16 season, the Brawley Chamber of Commerce will also host the first “Best Burger in Brawley” com- petition on Saturday, April 16. While usually scheduled for the second Saturday of the month, April’s market was moved to accomodate the city for another event at the Plaza area. April’s Farmer’s Market will also start later in the afternoon, at 4 pm, and run until 8 pm. “We wanted to send off our season with a big barbecue battle,” said interim Chamber Director Katie Luna. “Have some good, fun competition and, at the same time, have some good hang out time with the family.” Farmer’s Markets are typically used to sell local, farm fresh produce as fundraisers for events and activities. In recent years, every city in Imperial County have begun hosting monthly markets to promote various aspects of their respective city. BETWEEN WOMEN INC., a local charity focused on breast cancer awareness, was HUNDREDS OF ATTENDEES arrived and enjoyed the market.

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 recorder's 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 the property.
