PARKING LOT PANICBY JOSHUA MOLINA

DAILY SOUND EDITORIn a move that could dramatically

change the future of downtown parkingand spell doom for free 75-minute park-ing, the city might have to sell all of itsdowntown parking lots, the latest falloutfrom the loss of its redevelopment agency.

A trailer bill released as part of thegovernor’s May revise states that parkinggarages or lots owned by RDAs must bedisposed of, as part of the dissolution ofstatewide redevelopment agencies.Money from the sale must then be turnedover to the state.

As a practical matter, the move couldmean the loss of free 75-minute parkingdowntown and the private market con-

City may have to sell off parking lots and turnover money to the State of California

Measure Y proponentsraise $150,000

BY JOSHUA MOLINADAILY SOUND EDITOR

The proponents of Measure Y, the develop-er-backed proposal to build a vehicular bridgeover Arroyo Burro Creek to access a privatedevelopment — have raised $150,000 — all ofit, however, came from developer Mark Lee’scompany Peak-Las Positas.

Financial disclosure statements releasedrecently show that Peak-Las Positas Partnersmade $50,000 contributions to the campaignon April 3, May 9 and May 15.

Most of the money has gone to politicalconsultants, direct mail postage, printing andgraphics and marketing experts.

The opponents of Measure Y have raised$16,400 in their efforts to stop the controver-sial Veronica Meadows project.

Nearly 30 different individuals or groupsgave money to the No on Y campaign. Thelargest donations were from The Fund ForSanta Barbara and Bloomer deVere GroupAvia, Inc., a business aviation consulting com-pany.

Developer Lee wants to build 25 luxurymansions on undeveloped land that he owns inthe Las Positas Valley. In order to move for-ward with his project, however, he needsapproval from voters to build a bridge overArroyo Burro Creek. An EIR showed that thebridge would cause unavoidable, significantimpacts to the creek.

Lee has promised to restore Arroyo BurroCreek at his own expense.

Voters will decide whether he can build thebridge on June 5.

Arguments erupt overMeasure Y at debate

BY NICK C. TONKINDAILY SOUND STAFF WRITER

The controversy over Measure Y continuedinto a forum last night as both sides flat outdisagreed on the facts.

In front of dozens of Mesa residents atHoly Cross Church, advocates and opponentsof the divisive ballot initiative clashed overthe environmental impact, traffic issues, andwhether the housing project can move for-ward or not.

If passed, the measure would put a bridgeover Arroyo Burro Creek across from ElingsPark to allow vehicle access to part of a 25-unit housing project known as Veronica

Meadows. Because it’d have to cross overpublic land designated as “undeveloped park-land,” only the citizens can allow the citycouncil to permit its construction.

Without it, the only other access pointwould be through Alan Road, and protestsfrom residents of that street almost killed theproject when a bridgeless alternative had beenproposed.

Represented by Alan Road resident AndySeybold and developer Mark Lee, the Yes OnY advocates said the bridge is needed to keeptraffic off of Alan Road. Seybold said thisisn’t a referendum on the housing project.

A mix-up over a telephone num-ber caused a mild dust-up onMonday in the 19th District StateSenate Race.

Oxnard Firefighters PresidentJeff Donabedian asked candidateHannah-Beth Jackson to stop hercampaign from using the NationalWeather Service telephone numberfor her calls to voters.

Jackson is running against MikeStoker and Jason Hodge for theseat.

For less than an hour last week,the caller ID that showed up fromthe Jackson campaign appeared to

be from the National WeatherService.

“Last week, just as we werebeing notified by the NationalWeather Service of fire danger, vot-ers were receiving campaign phonecalls from Hannah Beth Jackson’scampaign from the same telephonenumber,” Donabedian said. “If thisis a mistake by the Jackson cam-paign, it must be corrected immedi-ately. If it is done intentionally, it isa terrible campaign tactic andreflects poor judgment.”

Jackson's campaign said it was atechnical error.

“This was a technical error com-mitted by our vendor's sub-vendor

who recognized it within an hour ofthe call program starting,” saidRudy Ramirez, Jackson’s cam-paign manager. “They fixed it atthat time. The National Weather

NEWS IN BRIEF

Apple wants to make more in U.S.

NEWS

Apple Inc Chief Executive Tim Cook said he would like to seemore of the company's products assembled at home than in Chinaand contain more U.S. components such as semiconductors.

Apple has been criticized for relying on low-cost Asian manu-facturers to assemble its products and for contributing to thedecline of the U.S. manufacturing sector.

Cook, who took the helm of the world's most valuable technol-ogy company in August shortly before founder Steve Jobs died,said manufacturing in the United States was difficult because ofdeclining tool-and-die manufacturing expertise, among otherthings, but he was working on it.

"There are things that can be done in the U.S., not just for theU.S. market but that can be exported for the world," Cook told thisyear's All Things Digital conference, an annual gathering of A-listtechnology and media executives in the upscale California coastalresort town of Rancho Palos Verdes.

Mexico mom gouges son’s eyesA mother in Mexico has been arrested on suspicion of goug-

ing out the eyes of her 5-year-old son during a ceremony.Police said on Thursday they had arrested seven people,

including the boy's parents, after his eyeballs were pulled outduring the ritual in Nezahualcoyotl, a working-class neighbor-hood on the eastern flank of Mexico City.

"There was some kind of ceremony inside a house," saidLaura Uribe, a spokeswoman for state prosecutors in the Stateof Mexico, a populous region that borders much of the capital.

She did not give details of what the ritual involved.The mother is believed to have removed the eyes with her

bare hands because the boy refused to close them during theceremony, police told a news conference.

Facebook Inc shares slid below $29 to a new low on Tuesdayas nervous investors fled the company's shares, concerned aboutthe social network's long-term business prospects and an initialoffering price that proved too rich.

Shares of the No. 1 social network fell 10 percent to an all-time low of $28.65, before closing at $28.84, or down 9.6 per-cent. Since its market debut at $38 on May 18, the eight-year-old company has shed approximately $25 billion in value -roughly equivalent to the market capitalization of MorganStanley, the lead underwriter of Facebook's IPO.

Wall Street has harbored concerns that Facebook, whileboasting nearly a billion users worldwide and dominatingInternet social-networking, would have difficulty translating itsgrowing presence on smartphones and other mobile devices intorevenue. Rivals Google Inc and Apple Inc currently dominatethe mobile arena.

CHARACTER COUNTSDEAR EDITOR: Re: Mitt Romney's

boyhood hate crime: What is referred toas a prank when it's perpetrated by ayoung elitist Republican is, in fact, a caseof blatant physical and mental abuse.Others involved in this crime have vivid,detailed recollections and have showngenuine remorse. Mr. Romney, on theother hand, draws a blank. This wouldseem to indicate the man has a weakmind, is a liar, or both.

President Obama has been accused ofbeing the real bully because he hasattacked conservative radio and Fox.Since these entities have repeatedlyreferred to him as a communist-Marxist-socialist who was not born in the U.S.and is not eligible to hold the office towhich he was elected, only Tea Partysycophants would see these alleged"attacks" as anything other than a spirit-ed and justified self-defense.

President Obama has been accused ofslandering and bullying U.S. SupremeCourt Justices. This is, of course, com-plete nonsense. They have lifetimeappointments and can only be removedby impeachment on grounds of treason,

bribery, or other high crimes and misde-meanors (Article 2, Section 4 of theConstitution) ... or upon their death. NOpresident has bullying power over theseJustices.

President Obama has been accused ofbullying and intimidating donors toRomney. These deep-pockets million-aires and billionaires are INVESTORS.They buy political influence and affectpublic policy. They expect, and usuallyget, a huge return on their investments.We, the people, have every right to knowwho they are and whose interests theyrepresent.

Such obsessive anti-Obama rhetoriccan only be attributed to willful igno-rance, shameful hypocrisy, or both.

RECKLESS BANKINGDEAR EDITOR: Jamie Dimon is the

CEO of JPMorgan Chase, and heapproved what the New York Times saidwas an incredibly risky banking strategythat led to a loss of at least $3 billion forhis bank. Reports say that led to billionsmore being wiped from retirement plansand shareholders across the country.

A fox guarding the henhouse. Worldrenowned economist Simon Johnsonbelieves that increased safeguards couldhave prevented JPMorgan Chase fromengaging in this risky behavior, butthere's a problem: Jamie Dimon sits onthe board of the Federal Reserve Bank ofNew York, which is charged with regu-lating the banking industry. It's an unac-ceptable conflict of interest -- leavingJamie Dimon in charge of protectingagainst risky financial bets is like havinga fox guard the hen house.

You can stop banks from regulatingthemselves.

It's outraged that Jamie Dimon con-tinues to sit on the board of this bankregulator even after this scandal, so wemust calling on the Federal Reserve

Board of Governors to fire Dimonimmediately.

Because JP Morgan Chase Bank is"too big to fail", it enjoys the protectionof US taxpayers. As such, Mr. Dimon hasa responsibility to safeguard the bank'sfinancial strength – not just for the sakeof his shareholders, but for the publicgood.

Mr. Dimon failed in that duty. He per-sonally approved a very risky tradingstrategy that not only lost billions of dol-lars for the firm but also had the potentialto destabilize the world’s financial mar-kets.

Jamie Dimon risked depositors'money and all of our futures. Despitethis, Jamie Dimon still sits on the boardof directors of the Federal Reserve Bankof New York – an institution chargedwith supervising JP Morgan Chase andother Wall Street banks.

Mr. Dimon also leads lobbying cam-paigns to maintain the right to carry outthe kind of risky trading that recently lostbillions and continues to put the world'seconomy at risk.

Jamie Dimon should immediatelyresign his post at the New York FederalReserve Bank.

If he will not, then the FederalReserve System should take whateveraction is needed to remove him immedi-ately from that position.

Both Treasury Secretary Tim Geithnerand former Head of the CongressionalOversight Panel for the Troubled AssetRelief Program (and Senate candidate)Elizabeth Warren have called for JamieDimon to resign his New York Fed boardposition. To date, Mr. Dimon has givenno indication that he will relinquish thispost.

Americans must stand up to Mr.Dimon and demand his resignation.Ignoring this request would underminethe legitimacy and effectiveness of theentire Federal Reserve.

It’s about where the traffic goes to get tothe homes.

“It will be built,” Seybold said. “Whatthis is about is access.”

But the No On Y group, representedby Santa Barbara City Council memberCathy Murillo and attorney MarcChytilo, said that a “no” vote would sendthe project back to the planning commis-sion.

Chytilo claimed the approval lan-guage required that the bridge had to becompleted or the construction of thehomes could not proceed.

“If they can’t do step one, they do nothave approval for step two,” Chytilosaid.

Murillo claimed city attorney SteveWiley had confirmed that the projectwould go back to the planning commis-sion if Measure Y did not pass. Lee said

that had been the first he’d heard of that,he believed the law had been much morecomplicated.

Even reading the wording of the staffreport itself didn’t clear things up,instead sparking a brief argument withinthe crowd about whether “substantiallycompleted” is binding or not.

The sides also argued over the envi-ronmental impact of the project. Murilloand Chytilo claimed the project’s envi-ronmental impact would be disastrousfor wildlife in the area. Chytilo said itwould create a ‘dead zone’ and block offwhat is otherwise a popular corridor forriparian wildlife.

“It’s a highway for animals,” Chytilosaid.

Lee countered that significantrestoration would take place and thetype of bridge being put in is far frombeing any kind of barrier for the naturalhabitat.

“If it’s abundantly clear that a herd ofgiraffes or a bull elephant could walkunderneath the bridge, it begs the ques-tion why is it considered an impedi-ment?” Lee said.

One resident asked point blank if Leewould pursue the project if he could notget the bridge through.

Lee, who’s been working to pass theproject for well over a decade, empha-sized that he would do everything to easetraffic from Alan Road, but said with nobridge, there wouldn’t be any otherchoice.

“Absent the bridge, Alan Road willremain the only alternative,” Lee said.“And that’s what we’ll do.”

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney greets supporters during a campaign rally at a local busi-ness in Las Vegas, Nevada.

REUTERS

Romney clinchesRepublican nomWASHINGTON (Reuters) — Mitt Romney

clinched the Republican presidential nomina-tion yesterday with a resounding victory inTexas and now faces a five-month sprint toconvince voters to trust him over DemocraticPresident Barack Obama in the November 6election.

Although the race has been essentially overfor weeks, Romney finally cleared the bench-mark of 1,144 delegates needed to become theRepublicans' presidential candidate after along, bitter primary battle with a host of con-servative rivals.

He will be formally nominated at theRepublicans' convention in Florida in lateAugust. In a statement, Romney said he washumbled to win enough of Texas' 155 dele-gates to secure the nomination.

"Our party has come together with the goalof putting the failures of the last three and ahalf years behind us. I have no illusions aboutthe difficulties of the task before us. But what-ever challenges lie ahead, we will settle fornothing less than getting America back on thepath to full employment and prosperity," hesaid.

Romney's big day was overshadowed by hisappearance with real estate tycoon and realityTV star Donald Trump, who organized a majorfund-raiser for Romney in Las Vegas.

A famous self-promoter, Trump has beenloudly fixated over whether Obama was bornin the United States despite clear evidence thathe was born in Hawaii, and Romney did noth-ing to publicly rein him in.

ROMNEY CONSIDERED UNDERDOGRomney endured serious threats from

Republican opponents from Rick Perry to Rick

Santorum to reach a goal that his late father,former Michigan Governor George Romney,fell short of achieving -- winning his party'sstamp of approval as its presidential candidate.

It is always difficult to unseat an incumbentpresident and Romney is considered the under-dog. But with the economy staggering along,polls are close.

All indications are that Americans face thepossibility of a cliffhanger election inNovember that will be decided by relativelysmall percentages of voters in as many as adozen battleground states, such as Ohio,Florida and Virginia.

The former Massachusetts governor nowfaces a lengthy to-do list to gird for his duelwith Obama, from picking a vice presidentialrunning mate to raising hundreds of millions ofdollars for a national campaign.

In the immediate weeks ahead, his goal is tobolster his case that Obama has been ineffec-tive in handling the sluggish U.S. economyand hostile to job creators.

This argument will move soon to the energyindustry, which Romney thinks Obama hasbungled by not ramping up domestic produc-tion of oil and natural gas.

Romney in weeks ahead will turn toObama's 2010 healthcare overhaul. The U.S.Supreme Court is to decide in late June on theconstitutionality of the law's requirement thatall Americans purchase health insurance.

Romney has vowed to repeal the law ifelected, citing it as an example of too muchgovernment under Obama. He has faced criti-cism from Republicans for the healthcare over-haul he developed for Massachusetts thatObama has called a model for revamping theU.S. system.

Now offering the MLB extra innings packageand soccer package on all big screens

trolling parking rates.The state late last year ordered the

shutdown of all redevelopment agencies.The state at the time estimated that theshutdown of the RDAs would result in animmediate $1.7 billion and up to $400million annually after that to helpCalifornia balance its multibillion-dollarbudget deficit.

Santa Barbara takes in about $4.3 mil-lion annually in revenue from its down-town parking lots.

The city and business leaders began tobuild the parking lots and develop anoverall downtown parking plan as aresponse to the growth of La CumbrePlaza on outer State Street in the 1970s.

The removal of angled parking onState Street and the construction of thegarages has long been seen as the cata-lyst for downtown's rapid growth andrevitalization.

"Taking those lots and garages awaycould be the beginning of the end interms of any prosperity of retail or the-aters or anything downtown," said SantaBarbara City Councilman Randy Rowse,the owner of the Paradise Cafe and alongtime president of the city'sDowntown Parking Committee.

Paul Casey, the city’s Assistant CityAdministrator, and Mayor HeleneSchneider are sending letters to the stateDepartment of Finance and local law-makers.

“This is huge for us,” Casey said."Our parking is the foundation of ourdowntown. We are hoping that DasWilliams and Tony Strickland will assistus in getting this language removed fromthe trailer bill."

In a letter to Assemblyman DasWilliams, Schneider said "I cannotexpress to you in strong enough termshow much we object to this."

Williams, who served seven years onthe Santa Barbara City Council before hewas elected to the state Assembly, toldThe Daily Sound on Tuesday afternoonthat he plans to back Casey and the city’sposition on the matter.

“To me, the Department of Financewanting to take the value of parking lots. . . would be over the line,” Williamssaid. “I have supported every measure touse RDA funds to help schools, but not

with existing, already built assets that arevital to our economy, our city and theregion.”

The city maintains nine parking lotsand five parking structures with a total ofover 3,000 parking stalls that serve morethan 5 million vehicles a year. The park-ing lot at Paseo Nuevo Mall is the largestprivately run lot, but the city has anagreement with the owners to keep ratesthe same as the city's public lots.

Rowse said there's no way a privatedeveloper could manage those lots aswell as the city.

"I don’t know how anyone would beable to run those lots and not have tocharge tenfold more than the citycharges," Rowse said.

City officials believe the loss of thelots will wreck the downtown experi-ence.

“Downtown Santa Barbara is recog-

nized nationally as a leader in downtownrevitalization in large part due to ourpartnership with the business communi-ty in creating a unified parking districtfor

employees and visitors over the past50 years,” according to a letter signed bySchneider.

City officials are also protesting thestate’s plan to take remaining affordablehousing funds. About 17 percent of SantaBarbara’s housing is affordable. The cityhas won several awards for its housingprojects and partnerships with the privatesector. Williams said he is committed toalso protection the affordable housingmonies.

Rowse hopes the state backs offbecause the city cannot afford to losethose lots.

“It would be absolutely devastating,”Rowse said.

‘To me, the Department of Finance wanting totake the value of parking lots . . . would be overthe line. I have supported every measure to useRDA funds to help schools, but not withexisting, already built assets that are vital to oureconomy, our city and the region.’

Assemblymember Das Williams

Service’s number was a glitch and nevermeant to deceive or trick voters.

“The specific instructions for the callprogram were for there to be no caller IDnumber for the calls. This is Pedro(Nava) and Jason desperately trying tomake an issue about a error that was

fixed almost instantly. The fact thatJason got the Oxnard firefightersinvolved to make a statement about thisis absolutely disturbing.”

Hodge is a firefighter. Nava has dis-agreed with Jackson politically for years.

The company also accepted responsi-bility for the error.

“We would like to sincerely apologizefor the calling that took place last Thursday

with the National Weather Service numberbeing displayed on the caller ID,” saidJeffrey Fell, President of Signia Marketing.“This was an unintentional programmingerror. This error was made on our end, andwas not a result of the client’s direction orinstruction. This error occurred for 1 hourand once notified we immediately shut itdown and corrected the error. Again, weare truly sorry for this mistake.”
