FREEDOM FROM FEAR
It was Saturday morning. As
usual, I was driving my children
to Chinatown for them to attend
Chinese language school. The
ABC radio station cut through
programming to report live
from Beijing. The reporter was
in Tiananmen Square and the
loudspeaker was on. Suddenly
he said the lights in the square
were turned off and tracer bullets
shot across the square. People
were running and there were the
sounds of gunfire; he had to get
out but then the radio station
didn’t carry his voice anymore,
just sounds of people coming
through.
Tears streamed down my face. Surely I should have expected that
the pro-democracy movement would end with repression but with
weeks of following the news from China, I willed myself to believe
that finally China would change.
My 10-year-old daughter asked, “Mama, what is happening?” I
answered weakly, “They are getting rid of the students.” I feared
the worst. After Chinese school, we went to the Chinese Consulate.
There were some Chinese students from Hong Kong with their
microphone and many others from the community. Older Chinese-
Americans brought water and paper cups. We exchanged phone numbers.
A reporter was talking to my elder daughter. That evening, the
local news showed the reporter asking my daughter if she knew what
was going on. She answered: “The people in China want freedom.”
A week later, on a Monday morning, the radio station reported
about a replica of the goddess of democracy statue that was crushed
in Tiananmen Square and appeared in front of Los Angeles City Hall
on a pedestrian bridge. Tom VanSant and members of Visual Artists
Guild had built the 23 feet tall replica of the statue. As VanSant
attended the City Hall meeting that morning to gain approval for
the statue, a 4.5 earthquakestruck.
The statue did not
tumble down and the city subsequently
allowed the statue to
stay for a month.
Thirty years have now
passed. My daughters have now
grown and have families of their
own.
Still we remember.
We remember those who
perished; we remember those
who disappeared; we remember
those still imprisoned; we remember
those who were forced
into exile.
For a short shining moment
in the spring of 1989, the
people in China, inspired by
the students, suddenly found
themselves speaking the truth,
expressing their own China
dream.
It was then that they gave
each other a precious gift, a gift
of freedom, the freedom from
fear.
May we continue to share
that gift.

Glendale Water & Power
(GWP) is reminding customers
that metallic or mylar balloons
and power lines do not mix.
Power outages caused by mylar
balloons coming into contact
with power lines are on a record
pace. Last month Glendale residents
experienced two power
outages related to mylar balloons.
A total of 3,055 customers
were out of power for about 44
minutes. Two other reports of
mylar balloons in power lines
were reported and crews cleared
them before any additional
power outages resulted.
The months of May and June
are when most outages related
to metallic balloons occur due
to Mother’s Day, Father’s Day
and graduation celebrations.
GWP urges customers to make
sure balloons are always tied to
a weight, as required by California
law, and to never release
them outdoors. “Outages caused
by these metallic balloons are
frustrating for our customers
and can also cause a lot of damage
to our system. It takes time
to safely remove balloons from
the power lines, restore power,
and repair any damage they may
have caused,” stated Steve Zurn,
general manager of Glendale
Water and Power.
The safest metallic balloon
is a secured one. Only properly
weighted balloons should be
sold to customers, and buyers
should never remove the balloon
weights. Releasing metallic balloons
is a risk to public safety.
Serious injuries and property
damage can occur when the balloon
contact is severe enough to
bring down power lines.
To prevent outages and
injuries, GWP recommends the
safety tips below for handling
metallic balloons:
• Do not attempt to retrieve
a balloon or any object tangled
in power lines. Instead call
(818) 548-2011 to report the
problem.
• Never tie a metallic balloon
to a person’s wrist. If the balloon
contacts electricity, it can
travel through the balloon and
into the person, causing serious
injury or death.
• Never attach streamers to
any latex or metallic balloon.
• When done with balloons,
puncture them several times
or cut the knot and throw them
in the garbage to prevent them
from floating away.
• If you see a downed power
line, stay away and call 911 immediately.

balloon information and safety

•GUEST OPINION•
BY TERRY TORNEK
WRONG ANSWER
PUNISHING CITIES THAT PLAN IN GOOD FAITH
IS NOT THE SOLUTION TO OUR HOUSING CRISIS
The city of Pasadena opposed the most current version of Senate Bill 50, which
would have completely removed density limits and increased building heights
along our major corridors, while eliminating single-family zoning citywide. These
changes would have amounted to a statewide rezoning without any consideration of
local context, growth planning strategies, or public outreach. That is why I am thankful
that state Sen. Anthony Portantino, who represents Pasadena and our neighboring
cities, did the right thing by putting SB 50 on hold so work can continue to improve the
bill to the point where it does not punish cities that have taken initiative to encourage
housing.
To be clear, the people of Pasadena are acutely aware of the statewide housing crisis,
and acknowledge that cities must take significant steps to encourage housing production
and affordability. The effects of the housing crisis are felt locally, with steadily increasing
rents, homes that are unaffordable to the general workforce, and a high number of people
experiencing homelessness. In response, Pasadena has taken important steps to address
these issues in a balanced manner.
Pasadena’s recently updated General Plan has reaffirmed our dedication to the
establishment of vibrant, mixed-use “transit villages,” with allowed densities ranging up
to 87 dwelling units per acre, floor area ratios up to 3.0, and heights ranging from 40 to
75 feet in areas closest to our six light-rail stations. Since January 2014, Pasadena has
approved over 2,700 new residential units, and an additional 2,600 new residential units
are currently under review. These projects have resulted in the issuance of permits for
nearly four times Pasadena’s regional allocation for above-moderate income units, and we
continue to make meaningful progress toward meeting our allocations for lower income
households. Furthermore, 87 percent of the new residential units that have been approved
since 2014, as well as 67 percent of the new units currently under review, are within a half
mile of a transit station.
And our efforts haven’t stopped there. Less than a year ago, our City Council
passed an ordinance that makes it easier for motels to be converted to permanent
supportive housing. Pasadena has also had an inclusionary housing ordinance since
2001, which requires new multi-family projects to set aside 15 percent of units for
low- and moderate-income households, and is currently studying ways to incentivize
additional production of affordable units beyond our current requirements. Finally,
the City Council recently instructed staff to take the necessary steps to approve a 70-
unit, mixed use permanent supportive housing project to serve homeless seniors on
city-owned land.
While Pasadena’s efforts are by no means perfect and continual evaluation and selfreflection
are always needed, it must be underscored that none of these achievements
could have been possible without community consensus for these policies, achieved only
after many years of analysis, environmental review, and engaging in robust dialogue with
the community through countless public outreach efforts. The resulting long-term vision
— and the related goals, policies, standards and guidelines — have ultimately led to the
development of an unprecedented amount of new housing units within walking distance
of transit stations in Pasadena, while balancing that growth with the preservation of our
single-family neighborhoods.
However, the provisions of SB 50 undermine the many efforts that Pasadena and other
cities have undertaken as part of a more holistic community planning strategy, rendering
the local planning process meaningless. While many of the steps we have taken are
generally consistent with the proposed density and height waivers in SB 50, Pasadena’s
vision goes beyond simply placing housing near stations. It recognizes that quality places
consist of complementary uses, including housing, jobs, retail, and other amenities, as
well as thoughtful urban design and transit connectivity. That is why our high-density
zones also include provisions for mixed-use, live/work, height averaging, and height
transitions.
I recognize that not all cities have made the same efforts to produce affordable
housing or embraced land use policies that encourage transit-oriented development.
Many cities across California remain out of compliance with their housing elements and
actively discourage development of new housing altogether, let alone affordable housing.
Many cities have also done little to plan for and incentivize increased density near
transit service, and a state-mandated measure may be needed to address these cities. A
problem as complex as the housing crisis deserves an equally sophisticated solution. Any
attempt to establish statewide zoning needs to be much more thoughtful than the blunt
approach offered by recently proposed legislation. The city of Pasadena is thankful to Sen.
Portantino for not allowing SB 50 to move forward in its current form and looks forward
to working toward legislation that does not destroy community planning. ■
Terry Tornek is the mayor of the city of Pasadena

CALTECH AND PCC TO HOLD
GRADUATION CEREMONIES
With local high schools conducting their graduations
last month, now is the time for all local upperlevel
graduates to receive their diplomas, with
both Caltech and Pasadena City College holding
commencement ceremonies on Friday, June 14.
At Caltech, about 500 students will receive
their diplomas at a ceremony set for 10 a.m. at
Beckman Hall, 1200 E. California Blvd. Expected
to address the graduates is Dr. France Córdova, a
1979 alumnus of Caltech who is an astrophysicist
and administrator who serves as director of the
National Science Foundation. In 1993, Córdova
became the first woman and youngest chief
scientist at NASA.
At PCC, some 1,200 graduates will participate
in the annual commencement at 7 p.m. in Robinson
Stadium, 1570 E. Colorado Blvd.
Giving that school’s address will be local artist
and ArtCenter College of Design alumnus Simon
Silva.
Although all students graduate in one ceremony,
PCC celebrates its minority graduates in
separate events. PCC’s Black Graduation, which
acknowledges the work of each black graduate, was
held on May 31 in the school’s Creveling Lounge.
Latinx Graduation, which recognizes the work
of diverse bilingual students, was also held last
Friday, only in Sexson Auditorium.
Silva, whose work represents his Mexican-
American upbringing and heritage, earned his
associate’s degree from Imperial Valley College
and then went on to earn his bachelor of fine arts
degree in illustration from ArtCenter College of
Design in Pasadena.
Due to limited seating, PCC’s ceremony is a
ticketed event. Each graduating student will be
issued four tickets to provide for friends, family
and supporters. PCC will also be live-streaming the
ceremony for any guests who are unable to attend.
Caltech’s graduation will be held on a firstcome,
first-served basis with no tickets required.
The ceremony will also be live-streamed on
Caltech’s website.
Local high school students marched in graduation
ceremonies in Pasadena last month.
The ceremonies kicked off on May 24 when
students from Center for Independent Studies and
Rose City High School received their diplomas at

OFFICIALS AT SANTA ANITA RACETRACK
REFUSE TO CANCEL REMAINDER OF
MEET AFTER TWO MORE HORSES PUT
DOWN
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN
Despite the deaths of two more horses last weekend at
Santa Anita Park, officials have refused to cancel the final
two weeks of racing at the track.
“It is our understanding that Santa Anita management,
after consultation with certain other industry stakeholders, believes that for a variety
of reasons, the future of California racing is best served by continuing to race,’”
the California Horse Racing Board (CHRB) said in a prepared statement.
The call to suspend the meet came after the horses Formal Dude and Truffalino
were euthanized on June 8 and June 9, respectively, after collapsing during their
races. Formal Dude suffered a fall that led to irreparable injuries. Truffalino suffered
a heart attack, according to ESPN.
The latest two incidents bring the total number of horses put down to 29 since
December. The meet, or the season of events, is scheduled to end on June 23.
However, the CHRB does not have the authority to suspend racing without the
approval of the track operator or holding a public meeting that requires a notice of
10 days.
On Monday, Sen. Dianne Feinstein again called for suspending horse racing at
Santa Anita. Feinstein first called for the meet to end in late May. The Los Angeles
Times has also called for suspension of racing at the track.
“Either the rules aren’t strong enough or the rules aren’t being followed,” said
Kathy Guillermo, senior vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
(PETA). “But whatever the reason for the deaths of two more horses, Santa
Anita needs to listen to the California Horse Racing Board and shut down. It should
not re-open until full-leg scan equipment is in place, since most pelvis injuries also
show lesions in the legs; the dirt track has been replaced with a safer synthetic
surface; and the district attorney’s investigation into trainers and veterinarians is
complete.”
PETA has already called for an end to horseracing in California, and Gov. Gavin
Newsom has said he supports Senate bill 469, authored Sen. Bill Dodd (D-Napa),
which would make it easier to suspend horse racing at a given venue.
The track closed briefly after the 21st horse died in March and officials put new
safety protocols in place to protect the horses, including banning race-day medication,
increasing transparency of veterinary records, further regulating approval for
workouts, and increasing reviews of the track’s surface. Also after the death of the
21st horse, LA County District Attorney Jackie Lacey opened an investigation into
the deaths, which is ongoing.
Some experts believe the injuries have been caused by an extra hard track created
by track officials in response to this year’s above average rainfall. n
COMING TOGETHER
AFRICAN SISTER CITY DELEGATION TO
VISIT PASADENA
BY ANDRÉ COLEMAN
Pasadena officials will lay out the red carpet for the
mayor of Pasadena’s first African sister city next week.
Mayor Alioune Ndoye and dignitaries of Dakar-
Plateau in the Republic of Senegal will visit the Pasadena
City Council at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, June 17, during the
council’s meeting in City Hall, 100 N. Garfield Ave.
To commemorate the occasion, Pasadena Mayor Terry Tornek is holding a
Mayor Alioun Ndoye
reception for Ndoye and his delegation from 4 to 6 p.m. on Tuesday, June 18, in the
City Hall courtyard.
Councilman John Kennedy called Ndoye a man of integrity and a visionary.
“The city of Pasadena is overjoyed to welcome its first sister city on the
continent of Africa where so many African Americans have historical roots,”
Kennedy said.
Ndoye and other dignitaries, who will take part in discussions about commerce
and business during their time in Pasadena, will also visit schools, museums,
cultural centers, a historical church, Caltech, Tournament House and the Rose
Bowl.
The Pasadena City Council unanimously approved the city’s first African city
sister in August.
Dakar-Plateau, Senegal joins Ludwigshafen, Germany; Mishima, Japan;
Järvenpää, Finland; Vanadzor, Armenia; and Xicheng District in Beijing, China as a
Pasadena sister city.
Dakar-Plateau has a population of nearly 37,000. The city is less than two
square miles and serves as the political, financial and commercial center of the
country’s capital of greater Dakar.
In 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower founded the Sister Cities Program to
reach global peace and tolerance through a people-to-people concept of linking US
cities with foreign communities around the world.
Currently, 1,060 US cities have sister city ties with more than 1,900 cities in
120 nations. Pasadena formalized its Sister Cities chapter in 1960. n

fine arts program. The college has inked a 10-year
lease on the space for $1 per year.
The move adds an element of both excitement
and uncertainty in the city’s Historic Core.
ArtCenter leaders describe the deal for the 6,250
square feet of space on the ground floor and
mezzanine levels of the building as a unique
opportunity.
ArtCenter’s initial agreement last year was
described as a way to provide financial support for
the museum in exchange for some display space.
Provost Karen Hofmann said that the kind of
contemporary programming that had been under
way in the space fit with the institution’s goals.
“We were doing lots of things we saw as mutually
beneficial outreach that would be better if we could
be on the ground in
Downtown LA, and
engage the city and
Southern California
as a whole rather
than from just
being in Pasadena,”
Hofmann said.
“Going Clear,”
which will be up
for a month, will
help the college
gauge how best to
use the downtown
space, according
to Hofmann.
An exploratory
committee is
evaluating the
options for the Hellman Building long term.
Hofmann said the space will hold a mix
of exhibitions and classes for ArtCenter’s
undergraduate and graduate programs. It will also
be the site of ArtCenter Expansion, a program the
college runs that offers educational and workshop
opportunities to the public.
ArtCenter DTLA replaces the Main Museum.
That project, originally announced in 2014, was
Tom Gilmore and his business partner Jerri
Perrone’s plan to transform the Hellman Building
and the adjacent Farmers and Merchant’s Bank
building, as well as a parking structure, into a
multilevel contemporary art museum, complete
with a rooftop sculpture garden. Architect Tom
Wiscombe had been hired to handle designs.
The first component, dubbed the “Beta Main,”
opened in October 2016. A small staff was hired
and there was a lineup of well-regarded shows,
including ones that engaged the local creative
community. However, further plans never
materialized. The December closure caught many
in downtown unawares.
When asked for comment, a representative for
Gilmore said that he would not be speaking about
the deal with ArtCenter, and referred questions to
the school.

ArtCenter joins other higher-education options
in downtown Los Angeles. Cal State Los Angeles
has an outpost at Eighth Street and Grand
Avenue and the Southern California Institute of

depot at Third Street and Santa Fe Avenue.
ArtCenter was founded in 1930, and originally
called Los Angeles home. It relocated to Pasadena
in 1976, where it operates two campuses.
Local leaders predict that ArtCenter’s
expansion into downtown will benefit the wider
neighborhood. Blair Besten, executive director of
the Historic Core Business Improvement District,
said having the college in the area long term will
continue the momentum of the local arts scene,
which has seen arrivals in recent years including
the Hauser & Wirth
“If I’m an artist, especially at the

“It is exciting

institutions in
downtown and that we will have another partner
to help foster a diverse talent pool for the region,”
Lall said.
ArtCenter operates multiple exhibition galleries
for students and faculty at its Pasadena campuses.
Hofmann said the downtown outpost will be “more
experimental” than those galleries. She said that
ArtCenter admired the Main Museum’s mission to
showcase local contemporary artists and wants to
carry on that goal.
The Old Bank District location also puts
students near downtown’s main galleries, as well
as events such as the monthly Art Walk.
“I think there’s a desire from a student
perspective,” Hofmann said. “If I’m an artist,
especially at the graduate level, I want to see my
work out in the world in a meaningful way, and
this helps us enable and empower our students to
express themselves in a much broader way.”
Hofmann said ArtCenter will evaluate the space
over the next few months, and will then roll out a
calendar of classes, exhibitions and programming
for ArtCenter DTLA for 2020-2021. n

MAKING
A
DIFFERENCE
FILMMAKER STEVEN SNEED HITS THE
STREETS OF PASADENA TO FIND THOSE
MOST AFFECTED BY GANG VIOLENCE
STORY AND PHOTOS BY PATRICIA CUNLIFFE
To some, Pasadena represents wealth, mansions, galas, financial and educational
opportunity, annual parades and nationally televised football games. In
this world of “old money,” fine dining is a nightly affair and trips to a local live
theater of choice in the family Jaguar are regular events.
To a growing number of others, however, Pasadena, especially Northwest Pasadena,
is a lattice of mean, often deadly streets where a person has to think long and
hard before calling the police because they don’t know if they’ll get shot, get help or
end up in prison.
This is the same neighborhood where people open up convenience stores that
sell malt liquor and individual cigarettes to minors and keep loaded guns behind
the counter. The same neighborhood that the more affluent part of the community
seems to have forgotten about or have turned their backs on when it comes to allocating
resources that will benefit the inhabitants of that area.
Is it any wonder that kids raised in a society that makes them feel as if they do
not matter would gravitate toward an environment that makes them feel as if they
do — whether or not that welcoming place is one that is positive.
Steven Sneed, 39, has worked with local youth since he was 19. As a child growing
up in Pasadena, his own life was impacted greatly by gang violence — he’s lost
friends and family to the justice system and witnessed the murder of a man. After
surviving many close encounters with gang culture, he made a conscious decision
to dedicate his life to intervention work with youth.
In 2017, Sneed was a districtwide intervention specialist with the Pasadena
Unified School District, participating in a Positive Connections Mentoring Program
at Jackson, Franklin and Madison Elementary schools, and at Washington Middle
School. Sneed also created a gang prevention presentation for Washington and
Elliott Middle schools, Rose City High School and four classes during the Skills
Summer Program.
“A lot of the students were excited and came to me afterward and spoke about
some of the things that they had gone through,” Sneed says, “It made me feel that
what I was doing was actually needed.”
So when his position ended abruptly, due to budget cuts, he decided to take an
inventory of friends with skills and resources to help determine what his next move
might be. As he explains, “I didn’t want my efforts to die with the position. I felt that
the passion was bigger than the job, and I wanted to continue my efforts.”
In that journey, Sneed realized that he had many intelligent friends who are
educators, producers, engineers and songwriters. “I started to think about how to
bring all those together to create one thing.” Sneed recalls, “I woke up and thought,
I’m going to make a movie.”
And that’s exactly what he did.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 09
As executive producer and director, Sneed recruited Jason Hardin of Hardway
Enterprise and Michael Towns to join the team as co-producers; Frank Gibbs,
Thomas Bunn and Brian Biery as associate producers; music supervisors Paco
Swartz and James Broadway; and drone operators DeAndre Weir and Dale Harrell
to join in the no-budget project. All were intent not on making money but creating
awareness, bringing people together through open dialogue and hearing different
perspectives about the impact of gang violence in Pasadena.
“The reality is that a large portion of the residents of Pasadena have no idea
that we have had a serious gang problem over decades, so it is very important
to share that story. In addition, the stark reality of the challenging social and
economic conditions that contribute to gang activity are generally overlooked or
brushed over,” states Biery, co-founder of Pasadena Neighborhood Leadership
Institute. “With this backdrop in mind, when Steven Sneed approached me to participate
in the project I immediately thought it was a fantastic idea. Documentary
films can have great power to shape societal consciousness through story-telling
and Steven had a clear vision of what story he wanted to follow and ultimately
tell.”
“Pasadena: Exploring Solutions to Reduce Gang Violence,” a true labor of love
which took 10 months to complete, has screened at the Laemmle Playhouse 7
Theatre, the Jackie Robinson Center, the Pasadena Civic Auditorium and most
recently at Pasadena City College. Principal photography was by Steven Sneed, Jason
Hardin and Michael Towns. The film was edited by Sneed, Towns and Thomas
Bunn.
This is not just another documentary filled with studies and statistics, utilizing
overdone effects and graphics to hold your attention. This film goes into the
streets and talks to people who are actively involved in every capacity, on all
sides of the issue. The stories make you sad, they make you angry, but the film
also makes you hopeful. In fact, the Pasadena Police Department might do well to
consider using this film as a training tool to aid in overcoming the excessive use
of violence on people of color.
One thought expressed in the film was that when we look at a “gang” problem,
we tend to dehumanize those involved, as if they are no longer people. We need
to look at them as people first and to make sure that they have opportunities to
aspire well beyond a gang lifestyle.
“Our youngsters are crying for help. I feel that they want the help but don’t
know how to ask,” says Jonni Sykes-Flemings, a community member in the
medical field who was in attendance at the PCC screening, “I think people just
don’t know how to help. So if we come together as a group, I feel that things can
change.”
Most importantly, this film does offer solutions. Frankly, it boils down to opportunity
and caring. These kids need people to listen and talk to them; they need
positive things to do; they need accessible resources that will prepare them for
a successful and productive life; and they need positive role models. We cannot
continue along the same path and expect different results.
True to his words: “I didn’t get into filmmaking to get the accolades for being
a filmmaker. I really made this film to make a difference,” Sneed says, closing the
film by providing a list of resources for anyone wishing to become a mentor, and a
final assertion that “We can make a difference.”
Hopefully, this film will screen many more times in Pasadena and I urge
everyone to make an effort to see it. Hopefully, it will make viewers want to get
involved and really make a difference in young people’s lives.■

CAFÉ SANTORINI, PASADENA’S
FAVORITE MEDITERRANEAN
RESTAURANT, REMAINS A
LOCAL DINING STAPLE
BY EVELYN GARCIA I PHOTOS BY DANNY LIAO
For the past month or so I have been
on a Mediterranean kick, ordering it
for lunch or on the weekends at least
once a week. There is a Mediterranean
place near my work that has great food,
although overpriced and not the most
authentic, and a small restaurant near my
home that is just not conveniently close
enough. Since I have been relentless about
having it any chance I can, I decided to
visit one of the best in the city.
Cafe Santorini is one of the best known
and most loved restaurants in Pasadena,
having won Best Mediterranean Food in
last year’s Best of Pasadena edition. As
many regulars or those who’ve had the
pleasure to go at least once know, that
came as no surprise. The food is great, the
staff is beyond friendly, and the outdoor
patio is so charming not many places in
close vicinity can top it.
To get into the restaurant there is
a small door leading up to a narrow
staircase, which opens up to the main
dining area. There is a bar just to the
left of entering, a hostess at the end of
the room, and quiet, intimate dinners
happening all around. Luckily there was
no wait, so our hostess took us straight
to the balcony area which we were
pleased about because it was a beautiful
evening, and it seemed to be a little louder
outdoors. My friend and I decided at the
last minute that we’d stop by that evening,
so we rushed over in our casual clothing
— not realizing several groups were there

in celebration of something or on a date, and thus
were slightly more dressed up. Despite that, we
didn’t feel uncomfortable or as if we had walked
into the Chateau Marmont in workout attire.
As soon as we were seated we were brought
water and a few minutes later a bread basket. Our
waitress was friendly, helping us decide on our
starters: Borek and spanakopita ($13) and stuffed
grape leaves ($10). The borek and spanakopita
was easily our favorite of the two and one of our
favorite dishes that night. Both are filled pastries,
the borek stuffed with a blend of cheeses, mint
and sesame seeds, and the spanakopita filled
with onions, spinach and feta. To be honest, I
couldn’t even focus on which was which, they
were both equally amazing and well worth
ordering as shareable appetizers.
For our entrees, my friend ordered the
Santorini pizza ($16) and I wanted to have
something tried and true, a staple dish: the
grilled chicken kebab plate ($20). The Santorini
pizza was amazing, with beef soujouk sausage,
tomatoes, onions, mozzarella cheese, goat
cheese and fresh mint. While I’m not the biggest
fan of mint, even I have to admit it really added
something to the cheeses and pulled the different
flavors together beautifully. My chicken kebob
plate was just as I was hoping — perfectly
seasoned chicken, delicious rice (my favorite
part), and grilled onions, tomatoes and bell
peppers grilled to perfection as well. The dish
also came with hummus and pita (my second
favorite part) and there was enough left over to
take home for lunch the next day, which, by the
way, was not my plan at all.
Cafe Santorini has a happy hour, and since
we missed it that day, we already have plans to
go back and take advantage of it. It goes from 4-7
p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 4-6 p.m. on
Fridays, serving draft beer, well brands, sangria,
wines, as well as specialty cocktails and martinis
all between $6 and $7. The happy hour food menu
(all $6 each) consists of shrimp curry, hummus
and pita, grilled calamari, saffron clams,
and soujouk sausage mini flatbread, which is
essentially the Santorini pizza in a small flatbread
version minus the mozzarella. Happy hour is only
served at the bar, but well worth it.
Other notable dishes that I saw whisk by or
looked inviting on the menu were the Moroccan
lamb shank ($32), braised with dried fruit,
balsamic vinegar and served with couscous;
the risotto with wild mushrooms ($21), which
is gluten-free and vegetarian; and the shrimp
capellini al checca ($23), served with angel hair
pasta tossed with diced tomatoes, garlic, scallions,
chili flakes and basil and served with jumbo
shrimp. Several dishes on the menu are marked if
they are vegetarian, gluten-free, or vegan, so it’s
easy for patrons to know what they can order in
spite of dietary restrictions. No matter what, Cafe
Santorini doesn’t skip out on the flavor.
They even have two banquet rooms for special
occasions or larger events. The Rococo room is
the larger of the two, seating up to 150 guests,
and the Mezzanine, which seats up to 25 people.
Cafe Santorini celebrated their 25th anniversary
this past year, and it’s clear that in the time
they have been in Pasadena they have become a
perfect setting for any occasion.

BY PATTI CARMALT-VENER
COLD FEET
PROSPECTIVE GROOM
MUST FIGURE OUT WHAT’S
CAUSING HIS
PRE-WEDDING JITTERS
Dear Patti,
My name is Brian. I’m 35, never been married, have a solid career, and
own my own home. On June 21, the first day of summer, I’m getting married.
Until I met Samantha (I call her Sam), I wasn’t sure if I would ever get
married. But Sam is truly an amazing woman, one that I respect and admire
and love being with. I know she’ll be a fabulous mother and for the first time
in my life, I’m looking forward to having a family.
However, as we get closer to the wedding, I’m starting to have serious
doubts. I get these sudden bursts of panic and feel like running far away.
While I love Sam and can’t imagine my life without her, I get concerned that
I might not feel this way forever. People change, and the idea of making a
commitment to one person for an entire lifetime feels overwhelming. My
parents got divorced when I was just a little kid and my whole life I swore I’d
never end up like them. I love the life Sam and I have created together, and
I miss her terribly when we’re apart. But can I really guarantee that I’ll feel
that way forever?
I’ve thought about postponing the wedding but it’s already coming up
so fast. All our families and friends are flying in; we’ve spent a bunch of
money on the venue and flowers. If I cancel now it would hurt Sam terribly.
I’m worried that she would feel so betrayed that she’d never want to speak to
me again. Is this kind of panic just normal cold feet before getting married
or am I on to something, that maybe I’m afraid because this is the wrong
path for me?
— Brian
Dear Brian,
I certainly can’t tell you what choice to make concerning one of the most important
decisions of your life, but I do have some thoughts I’d like you to consider.
You’re clearly expressing fear and doubt but you’re not offering any specifics
(e.g., mistrust, dissatisfaction, irreconcilable differences) as to why these feelings
exist. Instead, your anxiety is focusing on (1) the idea of a lifetime commitment
of love, (2) panic attacks, and (3) your parents’ divorce. Let’s look at each of these
individually.
Lifetime commitment: Have you ever worried you’d suddenly stop loving your
favorite grandparent or that you’d stop loving your own child after a few years?
Feelings of true love and deep attachment can shift and change with the passage
of time, but they very rarely stop altogether. In my opinion, what causes love to
die in a relationship is trauma, neglect, or abuse. You’re feeling overwhelmed
by the idea of loving someone for a lifetime, but what about the concept of being
loved for a lifetime? You need to decide whether your trepidations are truly
because you’re choosing the wrong person or the wrong lifestyle (marriage), or if
your feelings are based on prior hurt, fear and trauma. If it’s the latter, those feelings
must be dealt with or else you’re likely to continue repeating them in future
relationships.
Panic attacks: A panic attack is an anxiety disorder that is dealt with by experiencing
one’s underlying feelings. If you allow yourself to face and experience
your buildup of emotions, you will be able to make better life decisions. I highly
recommend you attend psychotherapy in order to better understand your fears
and negative feelings, possibly multiple times before the wedding. Explore the
possibility that you are, in fact, just temporarily panicking. Many high functioning
individuals who live successful lives attend therapy in order to better understand
themselves increase their ability to love themselves, have meaningful relationships
with others and embrace an even more satisfying life.
Parents’ Divorce: Do you think you’d have such strong doubts about marrying
Sam if your parents hadn’t split up when you were young? If the answer is
no, then you have more work to do in therapy. I don’t believe in dredging up the
past unless the trauma of that history is affecting the quality of life today. When
you’re in a state of anxiety, your thoughts are fearful. While that’s understandable
and needs to be addressed, also think about the positive. You’ll have the
chance to love another, a chance to do what your parents were unable to do. But
if you don’t try, you will have broken up like your parents did, just at an earlier
stage. n

PASADENA FILMMAKER MARCOS
DURIAN TURNS A TOUGH CHILDHOOD
INTO GREAT ART WITH HIS NEW
SHORT ‘FISH HEAD’
BY CARL KOZLOWSKI
Growing up Filipino-American as the son of a single
mother who never knew his father, Marcos Durian
was a victim of constant bullying all the way to
seventh grade. He finally fought back against his oppressor
classmates, but he still had to contend with the frustration
of wondering who his father was and if he would ever meet
him.
The Pasadena-based Durian has taken those two highly
emotional sets of memories and woven them together to
create the short film “Fish Head,” a “visual poem” that
makes its Los Angeles debut this weekend at the Dances
With Films festival in Los Angeles. As the veteran cinematographer
looks forward to unveiling his first project of his
own, he recalled the long journey of taking his life creative
vision to the screen.
“I originally wrote a feature length version of the script,
back in 2006, sent it out and got a little bit of traction,” says
Durian, who has built his career working on a slew of commercials
and music videos. “I got some meetings and unfortunately
some of the people I talked to loved it but wanted
me to change the main character’s ethnicity to Caucasian
or African-American.
“I gave it a try, got about 15, 16 pages in and I just knew
it just wasn’t working,” he continues. “All the nuances that
go along with the cultural aspects of being Filipino and the
language that was happening with the bullying. I shelved
it, but in the last few years diversity has made a big step
forward so I was inspired to go back to the script and I
thought try making it as a short film. I took the first and
second part of the feature and turned it into the short.”
The 16-minute film tells the touching story of a young
Filipino-American boy trying desperately to fit in with his
classmates while constantly wondering about his father.
As he struggles to get through each day, he finally has had
enough and takes a dramatic stand.
The style of the film — which was shot in Torrance,
Covina and Montrose — is elliptical, replacing a traditional
narrative with a series of flashbacks and flash forwards,
as well as dreamlike moments designed to show how the

young boy sees the world in his own unique way.
Throughout, the look of the film has a magical
realist effect and the young lead’s performance is
impressively layered.
“I wanted to do something that was purely visual,
held some subtext to it but also in a way ambiguous
and not hitting too much over the head with the
audience,” says Durian, who moved with his wife to
Pasadena from Los Feliz in 2015. “The fact that it’s
not quite clear to the audience could be a talking
point afterwards. As far as the visual poem of it,
there were elements I wanted to make ambiguous.
“There are fleeting moments that you might recognize
from your life or mine as kids, like Milo looking
up to the sky in a field and sees a plane and sees
escape and starts to float off the grass,” says Durian.
“Or in a dream where he’s reaching out to a man’s
hand but can’t touch it, and mom turns toward the
camera and is crying. It’s a visual where the thought
process behind that was Milo is seeing something he
maybe shouldn’t be, that perhaps mom doesn’t want
him to see her in that state. Pieces like that where I
wanted to go for something a little ambiguous, has
subtext but also doesn’t hammer anything over the
head too much in telling the audience one thing or
another.”
The goal now is to keep entering the film in
prestige festivals, with Dances With Films growing
in prominence this year as the Los Angeles Film Festival
died off. He has already submitted to the prominent
Sundance Film Festival competitor Slamdance,
and is preparing to submit it to Sundance itself in
the coming weeks.
But Durian has already been named one of this
year’s recipients of the Emerging Cinematographer’s
Award, to be presented by the International
Cinematographer’s Guild on Oct. 6 at the Television
Academy (the organization behind the Emmys)
in Burbank. It’s an impressive feat for a man who
overcame such a tough childhood, and he’s proud of
every step of his journey.
“My parents met at the US Consulate in Toronto,
when my mom dropped her gloves, he picked them
up and they struck up a conversation with each
other,” says Durian. “That kind of first meeting was
abnormal in the 1960s, when people trusted each
other to talk more. They began to date for a few
years, then mom became pregnant and from there
details of my father’s history came to light that
imploded the relationship.
“I thought I might have seen him once, when a
gentleman was standing at the front door of our
house,” he concludes. “Just like it happens in the
film, time seemed to stand still. I was completely
taken over by this person’s presence, but a friend
snapped me out of looking at him and it didn’t hit me
until several hours later that he could have been my
dad. I’ll never know, but I tried to make something
meaningful out of it.” ■

KEB’ MO’, Oklahoma (Concord): ★★★
The Grammy-winning bluesman’s latest album
balances feel-good love songs with meatier
tales. The first half’s the most compelling. “Put
a Woman in Charge,” a feminist pop-rocker with
Rosanne Cash, was heard during midterm election
campaigns, while the deceptively cheery “Don’t
Throw It Away” references plastic pollution (“The
face of this planet … could use just a little plastic
surgery”). The warmly uplifting “This is My Home”
speaks to the political moment in an acoustic
arrangement underscoring the humanity of its
immigrant characters; unlike sappy closer “Beautiful
Music,” its sweetness feels earned. kebmo.com
‘Hawks With
Good Intentions’
I SEE HAWKS IN LA CELEBRATES NEW COLLABORATIVE ALBUM WITH UK DUO THE
GOOD INTENTIONS AT HIGHLAND PARK BOWL
Among the press releases
tumbling like steady
avalanches into my inbox,
rare is the announcement that
includes my name beyond the
salutation. Credit I See Hawks in
LA guitarist Paul Lacques with
knowing how to get someone’s
attention.
Next Thursday the Hawks
celebrate the completion of
an album long in the making,
“Hawks With Good Intentions,” a
collaboration with Peter Davies
and Gabrielle Monk, aka UK duo
the Good Intentions. As Lacques
reminded me in his press missive,
he and Hawks drummer Victoria
Jacobs befriended Davies and
Monk at a musical gathering at
my home in 2012, when the Good
Intentions were touring California
with their English/Welsh
brand of Americana. A mutual
admiration society took root as
the Hawks and the Intentions
supported each other at shows on
both sides of the Atlantic.
During one stateside visit, Davies,
Lacques and Hawks frontman
Rob Waller met at Waller’s garage
studio in Highland Park to write
their first songs together — what
would eventually become “Rolling
the Boxcars” and “White Cross.”
For the next few years they exchanged
lyrics and MP3s via email,
a long-distance process belied by
the relaxed warmth of the songwriting
and instrumental sound.
“White Cross” emerged last
year on the Hawks’ “Live and
Never Learn,” with a slyly loping
country-blues guitar arrangement
by Tony Gilkyson. The version
with the Intentions follows the
same melodic lines but substitutes
sparkle for groove grease as
it tells its tale of a Memphis musician
with a taste for long odds.
Throughout “Hawks With Good
Intentions,” guitars, Dobro and
lap steel waltz and rumble with
Richie Lawrence’s accordion and
Gabe Witcher’s fiddle, as Waller
and Davies swap lead vocals and
Monk and Hawks bassist Paul
Marshall chime in with heartlifting
harmonies.
Trains, guitars, the high desert,
spectral characters, and the
lack of wildness in the West are
recurring motifs throughout the
10 songs, which collectively represent
a stylistic stretch for everyone
involved, as they needed to
mesh cultural, compositional and
vocal differences. “Flying Now,”
a ballad Davies sings and wrote
with Lacques, manages to evoke
both Gram Parsons and Richard
Thompson while stumbling in the
shoes of a homeless man “cashing
in bottles along a Frogtown
stream.” The train beat may echo
familiarly, but incisively detailed
characters of the Davies-Lacques-
Waller murder ballad “Things
Like This” travel deeper into the
desert than the Hawks have gone
before. “Epiphany on Town Hall
Square” is a poignant Christmas
song with an alternative perspective,
yet it’s not hard to imagine it
sung in an English chapel.
Davies and Monk plan to
return to LA in the fall, and the
Hawks are gearing up for a UK
tour in July. Ben Vaughn and Old
Californio frontman Rich Dembowski
will join the Hawks next
Thursday at Highland Park Bowl,
where the Hawks have lengthy
history, to celebrate the bonds of
song and friendship. ■

SIMBA BAUMGARTNER, Les Yeux Noirs
(Arte Boreal): ★★★★
The rare exhilaration in this 21-year-old French
guitarist’s playing evokes his great-grandfather,
gypsy jazz pioneer Django Reinhardt — lineage that
happily transcends novelty. Choice material from
Reinhardt’s oeuvre includes a seven-and-a-halfminute
romp through “Dark Eyes,” an intoxicating
“Nuages,” and a “Blues Mineur” punctuated with
zesty clarinet and drum solos. Vibrantly produced
by countryman Stephane Wrembel, whose longtime
combo offers crisp support, even well-worn
chestnuts from Reinhardt’s repertoire like “All of
Me” and “September Song” sound refreshed by
Baumgartner’s joie de vivre. Recommended if gypsy
jazz is your thing and you love to swing. Facebook.
com/simba.baumgartner
GARY NICHOLSON, The Great Divide
(Blue Corn): ★★★★
You needn’t share his politics to appreciate the
veteran songwriter’s mastery of groove, melody and
wit, or the diamond-like clarity of his sketches of
human nature at its messiest. Small wonder Buddy
Guy, Delbert McClinton, Willie Nelson and Bonnie
Raitt record his songs. Here Nicholson mines the
blues-country-soul nexus with ace players like
guitarist John Jorgenson, while poking the national
psyche’s tenderest scars with the swampy, racismthemed
“Blues in Black and White,” “God Help
America” (a moving duet with Ruthie Foster), the
heartrending soldier’s ode “Nineteen,” wisecracking
“Trickle Down,” and hopeful anthem “We Are One.”
A keeper. garynicholson.com
GREG FELDEN, Made of Strings
(self-released): ★★★½
Questions are asked throughout this LA
songwriter’s fi rst full-length album, but they’re
often rhetorical, like he’s tallying accounts.
Felden’s an intelligent songwriter with a buoying
sense of melody influenced by ’70s singersongwriter
pop; he’s also self-aware, wiser for
being wounded. His emotional honesty’s piercing
whether recalling a relationship’s demise during
the stormy “Tell Me What’s Broken” (“There’s
something not open/ In the words that you’ve
spoken”), negotiating persistent “Ghosts,” or
waxing philosophical on the hooky “When the
Change Comes” (“Tell me where will all the ragged
people go/ To the high ground, to the low?”). RIYL

ICE CREAM MAKER TILLAMOOK OFFERS CASH PRIZES AT 27TH ANNUAL PASADENA
CHALK FESTIVAL
After growing into the largest chalk-art
festival in the world over its 27-year history,
the Pasadena Chalk Festival has a
fun new twist this weekend to keep this
year’s edition fresh. The Light Bringer
Project, a longtime Pasadena nonprofi t
which runs the festival, is teaming with
new sponsor Tillamook County Creamery
Association to offer cash prizes to
the winners for the fi rst time.
The association, which has long
been acclaimed for its delicious array
of cheeses, is expanding into launching
a line of ice cream fl avors and is using
the festival as one of its promotional
launching pads for the new endeavor.
They’ll have free samples available
throughout the weekend, but the bigger
allure for the hundreds of artists
coming to make the city’s sidewalks
sparkle is the $5,000 in cash they’ll
be divvying up among award-winners
across various categories at the end of
the two-day event, which runs from 10
a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday as
a perfect destination for Father’s Day
weekend.
“Tillamook is bringing their Yum
Bus, a retro looking van with a ’60s
love vibe, from which they’re going
to serve a fl ight of ice cream for free,
which is kind of a fancy word for ice
cream cone,” says Patty Hurley, cofounder
of the Light Bringer Project.
“Artists are very excited about it,
because anything cold like that is a

welcome treat in the heat, but they’re
even more excited about cash.
“We usually have really nice prizes
for the artists including Jet Blue airline
tickets, hotel stays or dinners at Ruth’s
Chris Steak House,” she adds. “This
year for the top winner, the artist award
and the people’s choice award, are going
to get cash prizes for the fi rst time
in 27 years, which will make the awards
really fun. They wanted to contribute to
the artists directly which is a really cool
thing, and many last-minute artists
have jumped in.”
The festival has grown to include an
average of 600 artist teams in recent
years, with crowds of up to 50,000 attending
to admire an incredibly vibrant
array of art made with more than
25,000 pieces of colored chalk. The
extravagant results fi ll the plazas of the
Paseo outdoor mall and the Pasadena
Civic Auditorium, while the 18th Annual
Pasadena Police Classic Car Show
returns with an array of classic cars
along Green Street between Los Robles
and Marengo avenues from 10 a.m. to 3
p.m. Sunday.
The fest’s Kids Make Art section,
near El Cholo restaurant at the Paseo,
is expanding this year to include more
art-making opportunities, with the
chance to have families sharing in
painting, drawing or coloring and
special tote bags available for kids to
paint in their own imaginative designs.
In addition, this year’s fest will feature
drones taking aerial photos of artworks
for the fi rst time ever, while many artists
are starting to create stop-motion
photography of their creative process
that will be uploaded to the festival’s
YouTube channel as well.
Add in an eclectic assortment of
live music on two stages throughout
both days of the festival and the fact
that all proceeds benefi t the Light
Bringer Project’s numerous arts programs
throughout Los Angeles County
public schools, and it’s no wonder that
this has become a permanent highlight
on the Pasadena cultural calendar.
“I’m sure this event is a real love
fest for Pasadena, because every year
people say ‘This is why I moved to
Pasadena,’ or ‘I look forward to this
every year,’ and people are always
discovering by chance or friends
bringing friends here for fi rst time each
year,” says Hurley. “What’s nice is the
murals stay up for a couple days after
so people can also come look in the
quiet.” ■

BY CARL KOZLOWSKI
Forgive, But Never Forget
‘EMANUEL’ RECALLS THE MASS SHOOTING DEATHS AT A SOUTH CAROLINA
CHURCH AND THE CONGREGANTS WHO FORGAVE THE KILLER
Anthony Thompson in Emanuel
Filmmaker Brian Ivie is one of many Americans
who will never forget June 19, 2015. He was with
his wife in Hawaii on their honeymoon, reading
his Bible while enjoying a glorious view of the Pacific
Ocean.
Everything seemed right with the world, until he
suddenly heard his wife sobbing from inside their hotel
room and rushed to see what was troubling her. She
was watching news coverage of a public statement
being made by surviving family members of the racist
mass shooting at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal
Church in Charleston, South Carolina, which had
shocked the nation two days before.
Rather than angrily calling for protests and retribution
over the massacre perpetrated by white supremacist
Dylann Roof, who had entered the church and shot
nine African-American congregation members during
a Bible study, the family members were announcing
their forgiveness of him. That remarkable call for
peace as a potentially dangerous backlash was brewing
among the frustrated local African-American community
and is widely believed to have averted further
violence — and it inspired Ivie to make a documentary
about their decision.
The resulting film, “Emanuel,” will screen at 7 p.m.
Monday, the anniversary of the shooting, and Wednesday,
the anniversary of the forgiveness statement, at
Laemmle Playhouse 7, Regal Alhambra Renaissance 14
and the AMC Santa Anita 16 theaters as part of a nationwide
series of screenings sponsored by Fathom Events.
The film is powerful in its interviews with the survivors
and how they chose to make a stand for peace and
still insist on justice, as the then-21-year-old Roof was
ultimately sentenced to nine consecutive life terms in
prison for his horrific actions.
Ivie recently spoke with the Pasadena Weekly about
his decision to make “Emanuel” and the impact it had
on him as well. It is an important film, as evidenced by
the fact that this 28-year-old filmmaker attracted the
support of heavyweight celebrities such as NBA star Stephen
Curry, Oscar-winner Viola Davis and Emmy-winner
Mariska Hargitay of “Law and Order: SVU.”
Pasadena Weekly: How did you come to be a part
of this film?
Ivie: When I joined my wife watching the coverage
of the families’ statement, their worst moment collided
with our best. It was shocking to know a white shooter
killed nine black worshipers, but she was more shocked
that their family members were forgiving them, and
that’s the start on this for me. I had to know how they
managed to do that.
What do you want audiences to take away from
this film?
A lot of messages that have been close to my heart.
We want people to do the hard, uncomfortable work to
have healing done between races in our country. I hope
people will see God is real and is with us in our suffering,
and He’ll provide the inspiration to get through almost
anything.
What were your thoughts on some of the family
members’ ability to forgive so quickly?
Forgiveness is perhaps the most counterintuitive
virtue there is, and sometimes makes no sense at all. I
don’t know if I could do it, especially not just 48 hours
after the loss of my wife. But I tried to give everyone a
chance to tell the world what they actually felt and believed.
It’s not just a religious topic, and the film allows
each person to say openly and honestly where they are
in their process of healing. We show who forgives, who
doesn’t and in between. Life’s not all tied up in a bow.
Even when you forgive, you certainly don’t forget but
you move on.
How did you get Curry, Davis and Harigitay
involved?
The fact that Stephen Curry is helping with this and
getting the word out, that’s why I believe in God. He’s
even doing it in the middle of the NBA finals. Nobody
knew until last year that he was starting a production
company in Hollywood, and he’s not about profit but
about purpose. Viola is from South Carolina, a woman
of color and Christian. Viola was a friend before this.
Mariska is an activist and Christian, and she likes to find
projects that will help people get through trauma as she
did earlier in her life.
In the end, how tough was the experience of making
this?
The subject was rough — a lot of people felt we
shouldn’t make a film at all and even I didn’t. I stayed
away for a year so I couldn’t make this a career opportunity.
I’ve never made a film like this one, where every
penny made will be donated to the families. What was
challenging was that the film honors every family’s experience,
and it does. They’ve all blessed it. n

B. For all tenants in good standing, who
meet the income eligibility requirements
of paragraph A above, and who have
maintained continuous tenancy for a
period of 10 years or more shall be entitled
to enhanced relocation allowance
and moving expenses. The total amount
of relocation allowance to be paid by
the landlord to the tenant is based on
the length of the tenancy. For each year
after the 10th anniversary, the amount of
the base relocation allowance shall be
increased by 10%, and shall increase
each year thereafter until reaching the
maximum of 200% of the base relocation
allowance on the 20th anniversary
of the tenancy.
C. The relocation allowance and moving
expense allowance provided for in this
section shall be automatically increased
every year in accordance with changes
in the HUD fair market rents. The moving
expense allowance provided in this
section shall be adjusted annually in accordance
with the Consumer Price Index
(for Los Angeles-Long Beach) pursuant
to Section 1.08.060.
D. The relocation allowance provided for
in this section shall be triggered if any of
the following circumstances occur:
1. Demolition. A landlord or property
owner seeks to recover possession of
the unit for purpose of demolition.
2. Permanent Removal of Unit from
the Rental Market. The landlord seeks to
remove the rental unit permanently from
the rental housing market.
3. Occupancy by Landlord or Landlord’s
Family Member. The landlord
seeks to vacate the rental unit for the
sole purpose of making the unit available
for occupancy by the landlord or a
family member of the landlord. In this
circumstance, the amount of relocation
and moving expense allowance which
landlord is obligated to pay to the tenant
shall be equal to one-half of the relocation
allowance and moving expense allowance
provided for in this chapter.
4. Government Order to Vacate. The
landlord seeks to recover possession of
the rental unit in order to comply with a
governmental agency’s order to vacate,
order to comply, order to abate, or any
other order that necessitates vacating
the rental unit as a result of a significant
or extended violation of housing, health,
building or safety laws of the
state of California or the City of Pasadena
which would result in a constructive
eviction.
5. Change in Ownership. There is a
change in ownership of the rental unit
and, at any time within 18 months of
the change in ownership, the landlord
notifies the tenant that at some specific
date after the change in ownership, the
tenant’s tenancy is being terminated,
the tenant is being evicted, and/or there
is going to be a large rent increase.
For purposes of this chapter, a “large
rent increase” means any rent increase
exceeding the Cost of Living Increase
(“CPI”) plus five percent (5%) within the
12 month period prior to the notice of the
rent increase.
6. Non-exclusive Remedy. Nothing in
this chapter limits the rights of the city or
tenant to recover from the landlord any
relocation allowance or moving expense
allowance or placement assistance or
any other assistance provided to assist
eligible renters and/or other city costs
incurred for the correction/abatement
of distressed properties which the city is
legally entitled to recover.
E. Landlord’s non-renewal and/or termination
of tenancy under any of the
circumstances described in subsection
(C) above, shall not exempt landlord
from the obligation to pay relocation allowance
and moving expense allowance
as provided for in this chapter to any displaced
tenant in good standing.
F. Upon request of landlord, city, or
city consultant, tenant shall provide the
following documentation to determine
eligibility for relocation allowance and
moving expense allowance:
1. A signed certification of household
members and household income on a
form acceptable to the city;
2. Documentation of income {e.g.,
paystubs, public benefits statements,
employer verification);
3. Any other documentation as may be
reasonably requested by landlord, city,
or city consultant.
G. The relocation allowance and moving
expense allowance provided for in
this chapter shall be available to those
students, faculty members, and/or staff
members, of any educational institution,
living in housing provided by that same
educational institution, if such student,
faculty member, and/or staff member
is able to demonstrate, with evidence
acceptable to the city, that their tenancy
was terminated by the landlord on a date
that is more than 365 days after the date
on which the student, faculty member,
and/or staff member discontinued enrollment
in the institution as a student
or discontinued employment as a faculty
member and/or staff member at the educational
institution. For cases in which
the educational institution enters into
separate leases with individuals sharing
a rental unit as roommates, the following
relocation allowance and moving
expense allowance shall apply per person:
(i) Relocation allowance—Twice
the HUD fair market rent for a studio unit;
and (ii) Moving expenses— $1,200.00.
SECTION 3. If any part of this ordinance
is held to be invalid for any reason, such
decision shall not affect the validity of
the remaining portion of this ordinance,
and this City Council hereby declares
that it would have passed the remainder
of this Ordinance if such invalid portion
thereof had been deleted.
SECTION 4. This ordinance shall take
effect 30 days after publication.
SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall certify
the adoption of this ordinance and shall
cause this ordinance to be published by
title and summary.

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors,
contingent creditors, and persons who
may otherwise be interested in the Non-
Domiciliary WILL or estate, or both of
WILLIAM D. SIRKEL AKA WILLIAM
SIRKEL AND WILLIAM DAVID SIRKEL.
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been
filed by SHERYL ANN PATTON in the
Superior Court of California, County of
LOS ANGELES.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests
that SHERYL ANN PATTON be appointed
as personal representative to administer
the estate of the decedent.
THE PETITION requests the decedent’s
Non-Domiciliary WILL and codicils, if
any, be admitted to probate. The Non-
Domiciliary WILL and any codicils are
available for examination in the file kept
by the court.
THE PETITION requests authority to
administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act . (This
authority will allow the personal representative
to take many actions without
obtaining court approval. Before taking
certain very important actions, however,
the personal representative will be required
to give notice to interested persons
unless they have waived notice or
consented to the proposed action.) The
independent administration authority
will be granted unless an interested person
files an objection to the petition and
shows good cause why the court should
not grant the authority.
A HEARING on the petition will be held
in this court as follows: 06/21/19 at
8:30AM in Dept. 67 located at 111 N.
HILL STREET, LOS ANGELES, CA 90012
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the
petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent
creditor of the decedent, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy
to the personal representative appointed
by the court within the later of either (1)
four months from the date of first issuance
of letters to a general personal representative,
as defined in section 58(b)
of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60
days from the date of mailing or personal
delivery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor.
You may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form
DE-154) of the filing of an inventory
and appraisal of estate assets or of any
petition or account as provided in Probate
Code section 1250. A Request for
Special Notice form is available from the
court clerk.

THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests
that DEBORAH WALTHER be appointed
as personal representative to administer
the estate of the decedent.

not grant the authority.

in this court as follows: 06/24/19 at
8:30AM in Dept. 2D located at 111 N.
HILL ST., LOS ANGELES, CA 90012
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the
petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent
creditor of the decedent, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy
to the personal representative appointed
by the court within the later of either (1)
four months from the date of first issuance
of letters to a general personal representative,
as defined in section 58(b)
of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60
days from the date of mailing or personal
delivery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor.
You may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form
DE-154) of the filing of an inventory
and appraisal of estate assets or of any
petition or account as provided in Probate
Code section 1250. A Request for
Special Notice form is available from the
court clerk.

ìNOTICE 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 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 or trust on the property.
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

about postponements that are

title for any reason, the successful bidder’s
sole and exclusive remedy shall be
the return of monies paid to the Trustee,
and the successful bidder shall have no
further recourse. NOTICE TO POTEN-
TIAL 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 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.
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
916-939-0772 or visit this Internet Web
site www.nationwideposting.com, using
the file number assigned to this case
130637-5. 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. Date: 06/05/2019
