Great white shark allegedly 

behind attack of sea lion 

CWC warns public 

following incident 

offshore of Malibu 

Lauren Coughlin, Editor 

California Wildlife Center 

is urging the public to heed 

potential warnings from 

lifeguards and to avoid going 

into the water alone after 

a California sea lion died 

Thursday, July 4, following 

what appears to be a great 

white shark bite. 

Fireworks dazzle onlookers in 

Paradise Cove, Malibu Colony 

Barbara Burke 

Freelance Reporter 

Throughout town, Malibuites 

capped off their 

Fourth of July with great 

splendor by enjoying fireworks. 

The Los Angeles County 

Fire Department’s Fire Prevention 

Office issued two 

permits for displays: one in 

Malibu Colony and one in 

Paradise Cove. 

Spectators waited patiently 

on the beach at 

Paradise Cove, prompting 

resident Jenny Bassett, who 

is originally from Australia, 

to make laudatory comments. 

“I think this is the world’s 

best beach,” she said. “I 

love this community here 

because everyone looks 

after each other. I am not 

American, but I feel proud 

to be here in America.” 

Witnessing a lovely sunset, 

attendees gathered at a 

The wildlife rescuers 

were called to Pirates Cove 

Beach, on the west side of 

Point Dume, around 5:30 

p.m. July 4, after an individual 

spotted the ailing sea 

lion. The good Samaritan 

reportedly told CWC that 

the female, juvenile sea lion 

was “missing its tail,” according 

to Heather Henderson, 

CWC’s marine mammal 

coordinator. 

Henderson said the culprit 

is believed to be a great 

white shark “based on the 

damage to the animal and 

private home at the Malibu 

Colony, waiting with anticipation 

as sea mist graced 

an incoming high tide and 

surfers sought to catch a 

final ride. Then, the lovely 

spectacle began, with 

bursts of light and energy. 

“It’s like an atom splitting,” 

attendee James 

the size of the victim.” 

“It’s likely that she was 

bitten en route from the 

Channel Islands,” Henderson 

wrote in an email to 

the Malibu Surfside News. 

“It was not a fresh bite but 

also obviously not old, as 

she would have died. It’s 

common that they travel between 

the Islands and Point 

Dume, so the bite could 

have been anywhere along 

the way.” 

The sea lion was alive 

when rescuers arrived but 

was ultimately euthanized. 

Fireworks illuminate Malibu’s darkened sky offshore 

from Paradise Cove, where one of two permitted 

fireworks shows were put on this year. Suzy Demeter/ 

Surfside News 

Nicholls said, amidst the 

sounds of fireworks so 

close they seemed to embrace 

attendees. 

Flashes of light particles 

slowly rained down to the 

sea, illuminating the night air. 

The grand finale was indeed 

grand, as was this Independence 

Day in Malibu.

Malibu makes it a Fourth to remember 

Annual traditions 

carry on in Point 

Dume, Malibu West 

Barbara Burke 


From early morning until 

late evening, Malibuites 

gleefully celebrated the 

Fourth of July with parades, 

barbecues and, of 

course, the piece de resistance: 

fireworks. 

This Independence Day 

was different than years 

past. The popular parade 

at Point Dume was canceled 

because of organizers’ 

concerns that ongoing 

rebuilding, construction 

and road closures would 

impede the parade. Doug 

Randall, parade organizer, 

announced the decision 

on the Facebook page belonging 

to his company, 

Malibu Custom Carts, stating: 

“After talking to over 

100 locals, it was agreed 

to ‘take a break’ this year, 

and let all of us find stability 

and slowly move back 

into our neighborhood as 

best as we can with what 

we went through and [are] 

still going through.” 

Nevertheless, some 

residents of Point Dume 

dressed in red, white and 

blue, and had their own 

parade-like celebration. 

“We’re keeping the 

spirit alive,” said Janet Friesen, 

as she and her three 

children drove around in 

a festive golf cart. “We’re 

having our own parade and 

carrying on. It’s all about 

tradition.” 

Other Malibuites continued 

on as they have in past 

years, too. After gathering 

in a circle to honor late 

family and friends, participants 

in an annual 5K ran a 

race around the Point. 

“We started the run four 

years ago to honor Lydia 

Stiegler’s mom, Vera Rink, 

who immigrated to the 

U.S. with hopes of achieving 

the American dream,” 

said Pamela Conley Ulich. 

“This past year was hard 

on so many friends who 

lost their homes and on our 

family, when my fatherin-law, 

Dr. Konrad Ulich, 

passed away in February. 

He was also an immigrant 

who followed his dream to 

live in America.” 

Stiegler explained how 

the run started. 

Malibuites gather in a “circle of gratitude” on the morning of Thursday, July 4, prior to 

running a 5K in honor of late loved ones. Photos by Suzy Demeter/Surfside News 

Janet Friesen and her children (left to right) Uma, Theo and Dusty ride their decorated 

cart around Pount Dume. Though the community’s Fourth of July parade was canceled, 

some residents kept the tradition going. 

“Originally, Allison 

McKenzie helped develop 

the idea to have the race,” 

she said. “As an immigrant, 

my mom loved the Fourth 

of July and she was very 

proud to be an American, 

so I also wanted to remember 

her in a really positive 

way.” 

“Coming together to run 

the streets of Point Dume 

is an absolute honor and 

blessing, and feeds our 

souls and makes us all 

stronger,” Conley Ulich 

said. 

Participant Suzy Forman 

explained why the 

run was important to her 

family. 

“My son Dylan Strickland 

and I ran in memory of 

my dad, Michael Forman,” 

she said. “My dad always 

encouraged people to follow 

their dreams, and I’m 

so fortunate to have had his 

support, and I hope I will 

be able to encourage others 

to attain their goals. I will 

miss him.” 

Participant Linda Zielski 

talked about honoring 

her father, George “Skip” 

Lambertson, who died in 

January. 

“My dad was a retired 

firefighter and he was a 

patriot who served in the 

Army,” she said. “It’s a really 

special day for me to 

do this run because he was 

also a descendent of Paul 

Revere and a flag collector. 

We have such a great community 

in Malibu.” 

Over in Malibu West, a 

small parade of festively 

decorated bikes, wagons 

and golf carts kicked off 

from the corner of Principio 

and Paseo Canyon 

drives. 

Steve Arce remembers 

riding the vintage motorbike 

that his son Spencer 

rode in the parade. 

“I like the vintage bikes 

better because they’re 

cooler than the modern 

ones and I like this red one 

best of all,” Spencer said. 

Eli and Liam Becker, 

ages 5 and 7, respectively, 

got in on the action by riding 

their scooters. 

“This parade is significant 

because all the neighbors 

come together and celebrate 

our freedoms, and it 

means a lot that we’re still 

here,” Malibu West resident 

Drew Newman said. 

“We barely made it through 

the fire as the house right 

next to ours is gone and we 

just got back into our home 

to live full-time.” 

For Magnolia Becker, 

the parade was very significant. 

“The parade means coming 

home to Malibu,” she 

said. 

Tim Biglow agreed, 

adding “We’ve planted 

American flags at the top 

of the mountains to salute 

our neighbors and support 

Malibu, and we have a new 

Malibu West flag.” 

Their decorating completed, 

the merry group 

started marching. With 

scooters and skateboards, 

bikes and trikes, fanfare 

and fun, they proceeded 

down the streets in gratitude, 

peace and joy. 

“The parade is a good 

way to set a mark about just 

how much your kid grows 

each year,” Jack Marderosian 

said. 

“We’ve been in this

malibusurfsidenews.com news 


parade for close to 20 

years,” Debbie Glovin 

Rosenberg said. 

Across town, Broad 

Street Oyster Company 

opened in the space where 

Malibu Burger Company 

recently shuttered. 

“What a better day to 

launch a new business than 

the Fourth of July,” said 

Chef Alex Jermasek. “We 

will have a constantly changing 

menu because we will be 

serving fish from local fish 

mongers and their catch will 

depend upon various factors, 

including weather and 

water temperature.” 

The venue will be open 

from 11:30 a.m.-5 p.m. in 

its beginning weeks. 

From one side of Malibu 

to the other, residents made 

it a Fourth of July to remember.

Malibu CITY COUNCIL 

Square footage limit shot down with 4-1 vote 

Michele Willer-Allred 


A crowd filled Malibu 

City Hall Monday, July 

8, primarily to speak out 

against a plan to limit total 

developmental square footage, 

and in favor of a proposed 

skate park. 

After lengthy public testimony, 

the council voted 

4-1, with Mayor Jefferson 

Wagner dissenting, to remove 

a TDSF ordinance 

from the city’s work plan. 

The council did direct 

staff though to look into 

development incentives on 

projects that lower the impacts 

on neighborhoods, 

including those having to 

do with size. That part of 

the motion will come back 

during the mid-year budget 

process to give staff more 

time for analysis. 

The council’s decision 

comes a week after the 

Planning Commission narrowly 

voted to recommend 

an ordinance that, among 

other things, would set the 

maximum TDSF at 8,500 

square feet on residential 

properties, except in multifamily 

zoning districts. 

About 300 people attended 

the four-hour Planning 

Commission meeting on 

July 1, with most opposing 

a limit. 

Mayor Pro Tem Karen 

Farrer made the motion to 

remove the item from the 

work plan after reminding 

the council that they recently 

passed a budget that 

set other priorities (public 

safety, Woolsey Fire recovery 

and school district 

separation), and that the 

council needed to “rededicate 

ourselves and remind 

ourselves of our three identified 

priorities.” 

Councilmember Mikke 

Pierson agreed, saying, 

“I’m completely opposed 

to this proposal moving 

forward.” 

“It is ill-conceived and 

ill-timed and should not 

have come before us,” said 

Pierson, who also apologized 

to the community. 

“I failed to see that what 

I’d hope would be a community 

discussion on the 

subjects of mansionization 

and community character 

would turn into this,” Pierson 

said. 

Pierson noted that the 

proposal to limit TDSF is 

flawed because City officials 

didn’t clarify their 

goal —whether it was mansionization 

or neighborhood 

character they were 

trying to fix, or issues of 

rehabilitation facilities or 

short-term rentals. 

He also pointed out that 

there was no solid data behind 

the proposal, and no 

mention of the financial 

impact on property owners. 

“This item is trying to 

fit a square peg in a round 

hole,” Pierson said. “Malibu 

is not one thing. It is 

a patchwork of different 

neighborhoods and geography 

and different lot sizes.” 

Pierson did note that ignoring 

neighborhood character 

issues isn’t good either, 

since land use issues 

are important, and development 

incentives are a good 

thing. 

“We can actually improve 

the process, not make 

it punitive,” he said. 

As the lone dissenting 

vote, Wagner said he 

planned on spending his 

remaining time in office 

“defending the people who 

have brought all these issues 

forward to us, who 

voted for myself and my 

slate that I ran with, who 

said we needed to do something 

about the size of 

homes in small areas and 

small neighborhoods.” 

The council also unanimously 

voted in favor of 

holding a special meeting 

in August to consider a 

temporary skateboard facility, 

with the goal of eventually 

approving a permanent 

skate park. 

“I’m all for anything that 

can get a skate park on the 

ground as quickly as possible,” 

said Farrer, who 

offered to raise and donate 

money to get one going in 

the city. 

Councilmember Skylar 

Peak made a motion to direct 

staff to come back at 

the special meeting with 

options for a temporary 

skate park as large as possible 

at the 1.74-acre parcel 

adjacent to Bluffs Park, 

often referred to as the 

Crummer’s lot, and include 

above-ground ramps in the 

plan. City staff also is to 

come back with a timeline 

and costs for an approximately 

one-acre permanent 

skate park at the Crummer 

site.

Report Card, which has 

provided beachgoers with 

easy-to-understand information 

about water quality 

for over 29 years. 

While the report evaluates 

beaches all over California, 

Washington and 

Oregon, this year’s report 

is important for evaluating 

Malibu’s water quality following 

increases in rainfall 

and the Woolsey Fire, which 

burned 96,949 acres of land. 

Luke Ginger, water quality 

scientist at Heal the Bay, 

worked on the 2019 Beach 

Report Card and acknowledged 

that the news for 

Malibu is not all bad. 

“We’re not trying to 

steer anyone away from 

the beach,” Ginger said. 

“Summer grades for Malibu 

beaches are generally 

pretty good. Most have an 

A or B rating.” 

The BRC uses an intuitive 

A-to-F letter grading 

system to provide water 

quality information to the 

public. Grades are based on 

routine water quality sampling 

conducted by county 

health agencies, state agencies, 

sanitation departments 

and dischargers on the West 

Coast. 

Aside from the annual report, 

Heal the Bay tests the 

water quality of California’s 

beaches weekly and 

posts grades on its website. 

The most recent ratings 

show that Surfrider Beach 

at Malibu Lagoon Beach 

and Puerco State Beach 

at Marie Canyon, for example, 

have a grade of F, 

while Will Rogers State 

Beach, Big Rock Beach, 

Carbon Beach and Las Tunas 

County Beach all have 

a grade of A+. 

A and B grades both indicate 

a low risk of contracting 

an illness from 

any of three fecal indicator 

bacteria: total coliform, fecal 

coliform (E. coli), and 

Enterococcus species as a 

result of being in the water, 

according to Ginger. 

The variability in grades 

across Malibu beaches 

could be because the watershed 

at those beaches is 

not as polluted or damaged 

as the other ones, according 

to Ginger. 

The BRC evaluates the 

impact of the Woolsey Fire 

on the water quality of affected 

beaches. 

In general, the winter 

grades for Malibu beaches 

were substantially lower 

post-fire, with only 57 percent 

of the beaches receiving 

A and B grades, while 

100 percent of Malibu 

beaches received A and B 

grades in the year prior to 

the fire, according to the 

report. 

“We decided to look into 

the Woolsey Fire because 

no one has done an in-depth 

analysis of the effect of 

wildfire on bacteria levels 

in the ocean,” Ginger said. 

In general, two main factors 

of climate change affect 

Malibu’s water quality: 

rainfall and wildfires. 

“Rain has a negative impact 

because it carries pollution 

into the land into the 

water, and a lot of the climate 

predictions in coastal 

areas show more rainfall,” 

Ginger said. “Wildfires are 

also expected to increase 

in frequency and size 

across the state. Wildfires 

exacerbate the rainfall issue 

because they eliminate 

ground cover and destroy 

infrastructure.” 

More research needs to 

be done to evaluate the 

long-term impacts of the 

fire. The next step will be 

a much bigger state-wide 

analysis as soon as Heal the 

Bay finds funding and organizations 

to partner with, 


While California generally 

welcomes rain, Ginger 

admits it is a complicated 

issue. 

“People welcome it, 

but we’re still not doing 

enough if you’re talking 

about water availability,” 

Ginger said. “We’re still 

far behind where we need 

to be. A lot of the water we 

use goes into the ocean.” 

And while Heal the Bay 

focuses on the recreational 

quality of water for humans, 

things like bacteria, 

pesticides, oils and other 

chemicals in the water that 

negatively impact water

Malibu lifeguards to be honored for aid amid Woolsey Fire 


Lifeguards train all their 

lives for worst-case scenarios; 

last November, Malibu 

saw one. 

Eight months later, two 

of Malibu’s own, Capt. 

Ryan Addison and Ocean 

Lifeguard Specialist Tim 

Ryan, will receive the Distinguished 

Service Award 

for their efforts to protect 

their neighbors’ homes during 

the Woolsey Fire. 

The Paradise Cove residents 

are to be recognized 

alongside fellow Los Angeles 

County Fire Department 

ocean lifeguards at the International 

Surf Festival 

Lifeguard Medal of Valor 

Dinner July 31 in Redondo 

Beach. Awards are given 

to those who have demonstrated 

“extraordinary and 

exemplary bravery in the 

line of duty,” according to 

ISF. 

Ryan was working at the 

Zuma Lifeguard Headquarters 

on the night the fire 

began. There, he listened 

to the radio and received 

calls from members of 

the public who were seeking 

more information on 

the fire. Once Ryan’s shift 

ended, he headed home to 

start preparing his family 

for what he knew could be 

a monstrous fire. 

Addison said he and his 

neighbors did not know 

the extent of the fire by 

the time it neared Paradise 

Cove, but he, Ryan and 

several others joined up to 

defend their neighborhood. 

“[We] saw it coming and 

heard all the propane tanks 

exploding across the highway,” 

Addison recalled. 

The men got to work, 

turning off gas at homes, 

laying hoses and plotting 

a potential escape route. 

Paradise Cove remained 

Addison 

Ryan 

largely populated, and 

Ryan and Addison are credited 

with saving hundreds 

of mobile homes, including 

their own. 

“We were just kind of 

one foot in front of the other,” 

Ryan said. “[We were] 

prepping the houses, getting 

all the leaves and debris 

away from the houses.” 

Addison and Ryan recalled 

how Tim Morris 

secured an old-school fire 

hose, giving the unofficial 

crew a leg up on fighting 

the fire and enabling them 

to keep it from crossing 

the highway. Had the blaze 

continued on its path, Addison’s 

house was one of the 

first ones that would have 

been engulfed, he shared. 

“It would have been horrendous,” 

Addison said. 

The evening of Nov. 9 

didn’t allow much sleep for 

Addison or Ryan. 

“We were basically just 

running around and checking 

on both corners of the 

Cove,” Addison said. 

Late in the evening, a 

couple fire engines responded, 

and Ryan left 

to check on his dad and 

brother’s houses. Around 1 

a.m., Ryan returned home, 

pulled his couch in front of 

his window and closed his 

eyes. 

It didn’t last long. 

Around 4:30 a.m., he 

said, he awoke to find that 

nearby trees were going up 

in flames. The fire engines 

were gone, so Ryan got 

to work on extinguishing 

hotspots. 

“Through their knowledge 

and selfless actions, 

[Ryan and Addison] managed 

to save hundreds of 

mobile homes that were 

threatened,” the release 

from ISF states. “Additionally, 

they bravely watched 

over the community for 

more than 24 hours.” 

Once the bulk of the fire 

fighting was behind them, 

Ryan and Addison did not 

rest. They began doing 

welfare checks, and needed 

supplies were delivered to 

the community by boat. 

“I was just doing what I 

would do normally,” Addison 

said. 

Addison and Ryan have 

25 and 29 years on the 

job, respectively, and have 

been “on and off partners” 

through the years, Ryan 

said. 

While they are primarily 

charged with safeguarding 

beachgoers, Woolsey was 

not the first fire the duo has 

faced. In 2013, Addison 

and Ryan worked to fight 

a small fire at Point Dume 

Club as firefighters responded 

to a nearby brush 

fire. That effort also earned 

the pair a Distinguished 

Service Award from ISF. 

Addison previously 

earned a Medal of Valor for 

his response to a boat accident 

on Colorado River. 

Ryan also received a 

Medal of Valor in 1996 

for saving the life of a 

beachgoer who became 

entrapped in a sand hole at 

Zuma Beach. 

Addison and Ryan both 

called this year’s honor 

“humbling.” 

Still, Addison said, after 

seeing the widespread 

devastation the fire caused, 

he wishes they could have 

done more. 

“Our heart and soul is 

in the community where I 

grew up and work in, and 

to be recognized for something 

we did is nice; its a 

nice feeling,” Ryan said. 

Also being honored 

Five individuals are to be 

honored in addition to Addison 

and Ryan. 

Ocean Lifeguard Specialists 

Shaun Gudmundsson, 

Ruben Carmona and 

Jon Van Duinwyk are to 

receive Medals of Valor. 

Last August, Gudmundsson 

and Carmona assisted 

in the rescue of two fishermen 

from a rocky, remote 

ledge below Inspiration 

Point in Rancho Palos 

Verdes. 

“The fishermen had become 

trapped in the rising 

tide and huge surf, generated 

from a hurricane off 

Baja California,” ISF’s 

press release details. “Exposing 

themselves to extreme 

ocean and nighttime 

conditions, the successful 

efforts of Gudmundsson 

and Carmona saved the 

men’s lives.” 

Van Duinwyk is to receive 

his honor for his “extremely 

hazardous” rescue 

of a 70-year-old man who 

was trapped in his sailboat 

amid a storm, offshore 

from Dockweiler Beach. 

“Van Duinwyk risked 

his life to enter the vessel, 

extricate the elderly man 

as the boat was breaking 

apart in the 8-foot, shorepounding 

waves,” ISF’s 

release states, of the November 

2018 effort. “Due 

to Van Duinwyk’s actions, 

the victim not only survived, 

but was treated for 

only minor injuries. Just 

minutes after the successful 

rescue, the sailboat 

now on the sand was completely 

destroyed by the 

huge surf.”

Ocean Lifeguard Dick 

Douglas, who has been on 

the job for more than 50 

years and remains an active 

ocean lifeguard, will receive 

the Lifetime Achievement 

Award. Douglas is the 

father of three LA County 

lifeguards (Capt. Dan 

Douglas and lifeguards 

Craig and Todd Douglas) 

and is known for upgrading 

the Junior Lifeguard 

Program in the 1970s and 

1980s. 

Ocean Lifeguard Bill 

Krauss, who recently retired 

after 48 years, will receive 

the inaugural Junior 

Lifeguard Award. 

“He is most notably recognized 

for his success 

in teaching, encouraging, 

mentoring and introducing 

hundreds of junior lifeguards 

and students into 

the LA County Lifeguards 

family,” ISF’s press release 

states. 

The Medal of Valor Dinner 

kicks off the 57th annual 

International Surf Festival, 

occurring July 31-Aug. 

4 in Hermosa Beach. 

“It is our honor to recognize 

these individuals who 

demonstrated bravery and a 

selfless commitment to the 

safety of beachgoers of Los 

Angeles County,” said Rob 

McGowan, president of 

the ISF, in a press release. 

“They rose to the challenge, 

and their heroism is 

inspirational and worthy of 

recognition.”

News Briefs 

Earthquakes reportedly felt 

by some in Malibu 

Officials from the United 

States Geological Survey 

warned of a possibility of 

one or more aftershocks 

up to one week after the 

6.4-magnitude earthquake 

that struck Thursday, July 4, 

near Ridgecrest. 

One day later, that prediction 

came true as a 7.1-magnitude 

event struck the same 

area around 8:19 p.m. Friday, 

July 5. 

The intensity of the quake 

defied the odds, as USGS 

originally estimated a magnitude 

7 or higher earthquake 

at 1 in 100. 

Smaller earthquakes were 

deemed “likely.” 

“The chance of an earthquake 

of magnitude 3 or 

higher was estimated at 

[more than] 99 percent, and 

it is most likely that as few 

as 57 or as many as 110 

such earthquakes may occur 

in the case that the sequence 

is re-invigorated by 

a larger aftershock,” USGS 

notes. 

Following both events, 

Malibuites took to social 

media, with several residents 

saying they felt the 

tremblers. One video reportedly 

taken in Malibu 

on the Fourth of July shows 

a store’s shelving visibly 

quivering. 

“The number of aftershocks 

will drop off over 

time, but a large aftershock 

can increase the numbers 

again, temporarily,” USGS 

explained. 

According to the California 

Earthquake Authority, 

Thursday’s event was 

the strongest earthquake in 

the region since the 1999 

Hector Mine earthquake. 

The American Red 

Cross Los Angeles Region 

opened a shelter in 

Ridgecrest following the 

earthquake, and had provided 

service to 340 individuals 

as of Sunday, 

July 7. 

Officials including the 

Red Cross and Los Angeles 

County Fire Department 

used the event as an opportunity 

to remind residents 

to be prepared by knowing 

evacuation routes, holding 

drills and making/checking 

emergency kits.

No injuries, damage 

reported in Piuma rockslide 

Two large boulders were 

found in Piuma Road, 

roughly 2 miles west of 

Rambla Pacifico Street, 

around 3 p.m. July 2. 

The discovery was made 

by law enforcement officials 

who were out on patrol, according 

to Malibu/Lost 

Hills Deputy Nick Bonelli. 

Weston Haver, public information 

officer at California 

Highway Patrol - West 

Valley said the roadway was 

reopened around 5:15 p.m. 

“There was no damage to 

houses and no injuries,” Haver 

stated. 

Prang to receive national 

achievement awards 

The Office of Los Angeles 

County Assessor Jeff Prang, 

which covers 

Malibu, 

is to receive 

two 2019 

achievement 

awards from 

the National 

Association 

of Counties. 

Prang 

The awards center on the 

office’s development of cutting-edge 

information technology 

systems. 

To enhance accuracy 

and efficiency, Assessor IT 

experts designed and developed 

the Mobile Assets 

Tracking System and Train 

Tracks‚ the latter being a 

collaborative effort between 

assessor staff and students 

from the University of 

Southern California. 

“As a public agency, it 

is imperative that we continually 

identify potential 

efficiencies; but we must 

also ensure we maintain 

the expertise which is at the 

core of our mission to value 

property in a fair and accurate 

manner,” Prang states 

in the press release. “These 

awards highlight the ability 

of the dedicated, hard-working 

professionals of the Los 

Angeles County Assessor’s 

Office to fulfill both goals. 

And that, in turn, allows us 

to better serve the residents 

and businesses of Malibu.” 

In 2017, the assessed value 

of residential, commercial 

and industrial properties in 

Malibu was about $15.7 billion, 

according to Prang’s office. 

A year later, it increased 

to about $16.9 billion, the release 

states, which translates 

to additional tax revenues of 

about $1.1 million. 

Further, the deployment 

of MATS in 2018 provided 

the office with a real-time 

asset inventory mechanism, 

replacing a paper-based 

system. It was developed 

in-house and has produced 

significant time savings because 

of its user-friendly 

design, mobile capability, 

real-time reporting, and improved 

audit compliance. 

Train Tracks also was developed 

by the assessor’s 

office. It was first implemented 

as a pilot in February 

2018 to track required 

education and training for 

licensed appraisers. 

The tool now includes 

over 630 appraisers and 

saves more than 1,280 personnel 

hours, translating to 

an estimated $70,000 in annual 

cost savings.

City commits to renewable 

electricity use in own facilities 

Submitted by the City of 

Malibu 

All City facilities are to 

run on 100-percent renewable 

electricity generated 

from non-polluting, clean 

and renewable sources such 

as solar, wind, and hydroelectric 

power. 

The decision was finalized 

at the City Council’s 

June 24 meeting as part of 

the approval of the fiscal 

year 2019-2020 budget. 

“Malibu is proud to be 

a leader in environmental 

protection policies, and 

we continued that tradition 

when we approved 100 percent 

clean energy for City 

facilities,” Mayor Jefferson 

“Zuma Jay” Wagner said. 

“All cities, counties and 

states should come together 

to be part of the global 

effort to combat climate 

change.” 

In December 2018, the 

City joined the Clean Power 

Alliance, a public agency 

made up of 31 local governments 

across Los Angeles 

and Ventura counties 

working together to bring 

clean, renewable power 

choices to our communities. 

CPA purchases clean 

power, and Southern California

In Memoriam 

Trudeau-Street remembered 

for his ‘beautiful heart,’ more 

Memorial service 

planned for July 13 

Barbara Burke 


Malibu’s Thomas Christopher 

Trudeau-Street, lovingly 

called “Tommi,” died 

June 22 of congestive heart 

failure. He was 55. 

“A black hole has formed 

in our community that will 

bring us closer together 

as Tommi has wished all 

along,” friend Don Pitts 

said. “Words that come to 

mind whenever I think of 

Tommi include: loving, 

steadfast, loyal, sacrificial, 

creative, accepting, encouraging, 

forgiving, and, most 

of all, friend.” 

Trudeau-Street was born 

in Bourne, Massachusetts, 

on Nov. 19, 1963 to Frank 

and Carol Trudeau. He 

was raised in large part by 

his maternal grandparents, 

Alexia and Harley Street, in 

Denver, Colorado, said his 

niece, Amber Jacquez. Jacquez 

said Tommi cherished 

his childhood and the time 

he spent with his extended 

family there. 

The Streets moved to 

Farmington, New Mexico, 

where Tommi was elected 

president of his senior class 

and graduated Farmington 

High School in 1982. 

“Tommi had a flare for 

the dramatic, and credited 

his drama teacher, Chuck 

Ramsey, with saving his 

life,” Jacquez said. “The 

depth of that sentiment 

was only realized when 22 

years later, Tom took on his 

greatest role and donated a 

kidney, in a life-saving act, 

to Chuck Ramsey.” 

He was privileged to 

have married his great love, 

Emily Rascoe, in 1995, she 

added, stating: “Emily and 

Tom shared eight years 

exploring the world, with 

Thailand being a highlight 

of his life and Tom attended 

classes at the renowned 

Second City Comedy Club, 

in Chicago. Saddened by 

the end of their marriage, 

Tom followed his heart to 

Los Angeles in 2004.” 

Jacquez shared that Tom 

“starred in a few film and 

TV roles and he adored his 

Harley Davidson, acting 

on the stage and his life in 

Malibu.” It was there that 

he discovered his artistic 

talents, began painting and 

developed an eye for photography, 

Jacquez said, 

noting that Tom was very 

loving and cared for others, 

including two special 

people: Maria Altmann and 

Jud Bogard. He took care 

of Altmann until her death. 

Trudeau-Street was preceded 

in death by his grandparents, 

Alexia and Harley 

Street and Gwendolyn 

Trudeau; his mother, Carol 

Zwiener; father, Frank 

Trudeau; sister Dominique 

Jacquez; brother, Richard

Don’t Panic, It’s Organic 

Keeping bark beetles at bay organically 

Andy Lopez 

Contributing Columnist 

Invisible Gardener 

The bark beetle is the 

effect. 

So, what is the 

cause? Trace mineral 

deficiency.

Sick soil produces sick 

trees. Reduced water flow 

means reduced mineral 

flow. Reduced minerals are 

followed by an increase 

in pests and diseases. Sick 

soil is soil without the 

proper microbes, and that 

equals trees/plants lacking 

in certain trace minerals. 

What is more important 

to a tree? Nitrogen or 

minerals? Chemical fertilizer 

companies believe it 

is nitrogen, so they make 

sure their fertilizers are all 

high nitrogen based. 

Urea in nature is less 

than 2-percent nitrogen, 

while manmade urea is 

Malibu Newsstand 23717 ½ Malibu Rd. in the Colony Shopping Center | 310.456.1519 | Malibu.newsstand@gmail.com 

45-percent nitrogen! Yes, 

nitrogen makes things 

grow fast, but they are 

stressed out and weak. 

So, the cause here is 

a complex one — one 

entirely caused by humans. 

The drought caused us to 

use the ground water which 

trees have relied upon during 

droughts, and the lack 

of water in the right place 

also is causing stress. Top 

that off with the fact we 

have destroyed the topsoil. 

Adding chemical fertilizer 

to make that lawn of yours 

lush and green has produced 

a dead soil environment 

— one that is stressing 

out the trees. Recent 

rains help, but do nothing 

to bring the soil back to life. 

High stress always results 

in pests and is followed by 

diseases. All diseases are 

soilborne. They are in the 

soil but under control by 

the beneficial bacteria. Kill 

the good guys, and the bad 

guys move in! 

It is better to underwater 

than to overwater, and 

better to use a drip system 

for trees than overhead 

sprinklers. 

Many folks have trees 

surrounded by lawns. They 

water the lawn almost 

daily (many do four or five 

minutes a day) while trees

prefer once a week if you 

have bad soil, or twice a 

month if you have good 

soil. The high nitrogen 

fertilizer that your gardener 

uses on the lawn, while you 

may think it is good for the 

lawn (it isn’t), it certainly is 

not good for the trees. 

Do you remember a few 

months ago, after all that 

rain we had, when many 

trees toppled over? That 

would not have happened 

if the trees were deeply 

watered. Their roots would 

have been deep. 

By just watering your 

lawn and not the tree, the 

tree will die sooner. 

You should have two 

watering systems: one 

for the lawn that uses an 

overhead sprinkler, and one 

for the trees, which should 

get anywhere from half an 

hour to two hours drip once 

or twice a month. 

It is not a good idea to 

have a lawn around your 

trees unless the lawn is 

organically fertilized. Then, 

it is perfect, and the watering 

for the lawn will not 

adversely affect the tree. 

Organic lawn fertilizers 

come with soil microbes 

and some trace minerals. 

Organic lawns require 

less weekly watering than 

chemically grown lawns. 

Trees also require different 

organic fertilization 

than lawns do. They do not 

like high nitrogen. High 

nitrogen actually inhibits 

mineral intake and absorption. 

Organic lawn fertilizers 

are not high nitrogen. 

Pay attention to your 

trees’ needs and your trees 

will be much happier for it. 

But, what do you do if 

you think there is something 

wrong with your trees? 

First, find out from a tree 

arborist. They always use 

chemical pesticides to kill 

the borer and prevent them 

from coming back. 

You all know I do not 

support chemical use; I use 

organic materials instead. 

I would ask the arborist 

if they can do it without 

chemicals. Tell the arborist 

you want to use Orange 

oil like Orange TKO or 

XT2000. XT2000 is used 

on termites and also is 

registered for tree borer 

control, and you must be 

a pest control operator to 

use it. OrangeTKO is an 

organic orange oil that 

is injected with a needle 

through the bored hole. The 

oil will kill the borer and its 

eggs on contact. 

You also can spray the 

orange oil onto the trunk 

of the tree to prevent more 

attacks. I use 50 percent 

Orange TKO, and 50 percent 

mineral oil and I spray 

that on the lower part of the 

trunk. You can also paint it 

on. You should do this once 

and then look for signs of 

any new bore holes with 

dust showing up. If that 

happens, treat those also. 

How are trees being 

watered? Install tree vents. 

I use clay drain pipes about 

1-foot deep. Turn the drip on 

and see how fast the water 

goes down the pipe. When it 

starts to overflow, that’s the 

length of time to water. You 

will increase this over time. 

Inside the vents, add rock 

dust, compost and mulch. 

Add an organic fertilizer 

with microbes. 

Foliar spray the tree 

monthly with a mineral-rich, 

bacterial-rich compost tea.

When the 

Ridgecrest-area, 

6.4-magnitude 

earthquake struck on July 

4, a trickle of emails followed. 

One after another area 

agency wished to remind 

the public of earthquake 

preparedness tips. While 

the earthquake and its many 

aftershocks — more than 

2,400, according to the 

Los Angeles County Fire 

Department — took place 

fairly far from Malibu, 

renewable 

From Page 11 

ties, Malibu will meet the 

California Senate Bill 100 

mandate of 100 percent zero-carbon, 

clean renewable 

energy electricity by 2045. 

About one-third of the 

CPA members selected the 

100 percent Green Power 

tier, including Culver City, 

Manhattan Beach, Ojai, 

Oxnard, Rolling Hills Estates, 

Santa Monica, South 

Pasadena, Thousand Oaks, 

Ventura, Ventura County 

and West Hollywood. 

Unlike fossil fuels, renewable 

energy regenerates 

naturally in a short period 

of time. The facilities that 

produce CPA’s electricity 

many in town reported feeling 

the initial quiver and 

the stronger, 7.1-magnitude 

aftershock on July 5. 

With the Woolsey 

Fire still permeating just 

about every corner of this 

newspaper, it’s difficult to 

ask anyone to think of yet 

another disaster, but it also 

would be ignorant not to do 

so. So, this week, I’d like 

to highlight a few disaster 

preparedness tips, courtesy 

of the American Red Cross. 

When it comes to 

preparation, the Red Cross 

recommends three actions: 

getting an emergency kit, 

making an emergency plan, 

and knowing how to stay 

informed. 

For the kit, it is recommended 

to pack supplies for 

at least three days; recommended 

items include a 

gallon of water per person 

per day, non-perishable 

food, a flashlight and extra 

batteries, a first aid kit, 

are located in California 

and on the western grid. 

CPA energy for residential 

customers in Malibu 

began in February 2019 

and non-residential customers 

in May 2019. Customers 

are automatically 

enrolled to receive 50 percent 

of their power supply 

from renewable sources 

at the same cost as SCE, 

which consists of only 34 

percent renewable electricity. 

Customers can also 

choose to get 36 percent 

of their energy from renewable 

sources and get a 

1-percent discount or 100 

percent renewable electricity 

and pay an additional 

9 percent. Customers also 

may opt out. To change a 

rate option, visit cleanpow 

medications and copies of 

important documents. 

As far as an emergency 

plan, Red Cross asks individuals 

to consider what to 

do in the event that they are 

separated from their family 

during an emergency. Also 

consider pets in any plans. 

Over the years, Malibu 

has hosted several earthquake 

drills. Those who 

have been through those 

know the motions, but 

here’s a brief refresher. 

Officials advise individuals 

to avoid moving around, 

and to drop, cover and hold 

on. Protect the head and 

torso, officials state, and get 

under a desk or table if you 

are at one. If in bed, stay 

put, curl up and hold on 

while protecting your head 

with a pillow, Red Cross 

advises. It is best to stay 

indoors until shaking stops. 

Anyone who must leave 

a building following an 

earthquake is urged to use 

eralliance.org/rate-options/ 

or call (888) 585-3788. 

Some customers may 

have seen their rates go up, 

however, that is not because 

of the City joining the CPA. 

To see how a bill compares 

with SCE, check out the 

rate comparison calculator 

at cleanpoweralliance. 

org/rate-options/residential-rates/. 

For commercial 

rates, go to cleanpoweral 

liance.org/rate-options/ 

commercial-rates/. Customers 

who have enjoyed 

special rates or programs 

in the past, such as CARE, 

FERA, Medical Baseline, 

Level Pay or Summer Discounts, 

will still have access 

to them. CPA also will 

develop new programs for 

local customers. 

the stairs, as power outages 

and aftershocks can impact 

elevators. 

If an earthquake hits 

while you are outdoors, it 

is best to find a clear spot 

away from buildings, power 

lines, trees and streetlights, 

and drop to the ground, Red 

Cross states. 

Anyone in a vehicle is 

urged to pull over and stop, 

while avoiding bridges, 

overpasses and power lines 

if possible. Leave your 

seatbelt fastened and stay in 

the car. If a power line falls 

on your vehicle, stay in the 

car and wait for assistance. 

As Malibu is well aware, 

mountainous areas are 

at risk for rockslides and 

landslides following earthquakes. 

Be alert.

Barbara Burke 


Kristy Apana-Bashant 

and her husband, Greg 

Bashant, have rallied. 

Though the couple lost 

their barbecue establishment 

on Kanan to the Woolsey 

Fire, they remained dedicated 

to supporting Malibu. 

In the days following the 

fire, they fed people at no 

cost from Kristy’s Restaurant, 

their venue in Trancas 

Country Market that survived 

the inferno. 

On June 14, the couple 

opened Roadhouse at 

Zuma across the lawn from 

Kristy’s. With their new 

restaurant, they’re ready 

to write a new chapter in 

their professional lives and 

to support efforts to rebuild 

western Malibu. 

The venue is bedecked 

with beautiful photographs 

by local Steven Lippman, 

works full of expansive 

waves that seem to draw the 

ocean into the venue. 

“It’s Malibu-Hawaiian 

beach casual,” said Kristy, 

a native of the Aloha state. 

“It’s great to-go food for 

the beach or to take home 

and enjoy, and many of the 

dishes are those that a surfer 

likes to eat.” 

The Roadhouse at Zuma is 

laid-back and meant to be enjoyed 

by all, Bashant added, 

noting that menu items range 

from $5 to $18. For now, the 

restaurant is open from 11 

a.m.-4 p.m. every day, except 

Fridays, when it is open from 

11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

processed, which we are 

hoping will be in about 30 

days,” Bashant said. “We 

may also be adding delivery 

service as well.” 

Options include the half 

roasted chicken with baked 

beans and Hawaiian macaroni 

salad ($17). The chicken 

is well-seasoned, the 

baked beans flavorful and 

filling, and the macaroni 

salad is not too sweet. 

“You’ve got to try the barbecue 

pork ribs,” Bashant 

said, noting that the sauce is 

mild and robust. 

Bashant also plugged the 

corn bread, which he said 

“is to die for.” 

Diners also may consider 

enjoying a canned Hawaiian 

Sun drink ($3). The beverages 

are tasty and fun, with 

flavors such as Lilikoi passion, 

green tea lychee and 

guava nectar. 

The Korean drumsticks 

($16), served with traditional 

Hawaiian fried rice and 

macaroni salad, is another 

winning entree. Sweet sauces 

infuse the meat, topped 

with scallions, to hit the spot 

on a hot summer day. 

For those wanting a lighter 

meal, the Somen noodle 

salad ($14) provides interesting 

textures and tastes. 

Customers can add a chicken 

breast for $6, fish for $7 

or avocado for $3. 

A crispy tofu and rice 

dish ($12), made with ginger 

scallion sauce, also is 

featured. 

Hot dogs, chili, vegan 

chili, pizza and traditional 

milkshakes round out the 

restaurant’s offerings. 

Servers at the Roadhouse 

wear a T-shirt displaying 

an image of what the land 

above the venue looks like 

when viewed by surfers, but, 

on the day of the fire, when 

viewed by evacuees as they 

helplessly watched the hills 

of western Malibu burn. 

Those hills are now alive 

with the sound of rebuilding, 

and below them sits 

Malibu’s newest restaurant, 

The Roadhouse at Zuma — 

the new iteration of the establishment 

that succumbed 

to the fire. 

Barbecue ribs ($18), pictured here with steakhouse fries 

and coleslaw, are among the offerings at Roadhouse, a 

new restaurant in Malibu. 

For an additional charge, diners can add chicken, fish or avocado to Roadhouse’s 

Somen noodle salad ($14).

New exhibit pays homage to local landscapes 

Artists’ reception 

scheduled for this 

Saturday, July 13 

Barbara Burke, Freelance Reporter 

“The inspiration is endless,” 

stated artist Sandra Hall, whose oil 

on linen work, “Visiting Malibu” 

is featured in Santa Monica Mountains 

& Malibu Miniatures, a new 

show at King Gillette Ranch. 

Hall is one of several area artists 

featured in the exhibit — 

sponsored by California Art Club 

members of the Malibu Ventura 

County Chapter — which is to remain 

on display through Aug. 30. 

A free artists’ reception is slated 

for 1-3 p.m. Saturday, July 13. 

“Painting is the art of seeing 

and sharing that insight through 

our own unique expression,” Hall 

opined. 

With hues of azure, Hall’s “Visiting 

Malibu” invites viewers to 

take note of its delicate details. 

Hall captures the fleeting moment 

of one gull’s descending flight, its 

large wings outstretched as it hovers 

over another gull, enjoying a 

momentary respite. 

“I painted ‘Visiting Malibu’ at 

Leo Carrillo State Beach, up on the 

rocks by Tower 3, which is one of 

my favorite places to paint because 

it never disappoints,” Hall said. 

“There’s such a variety offered in 

every direction — coastal landscapes 

south and north, mountains 

in the east, and crashing waves and 

sea life to the west. Then, add the 

ever-changing sunlight and shadows 

from sunrise to sunset and the 

atmosphere of the seasons, fog, 

wind, clouds or a cloudless sky — 

birds, animals, people.” 

Artist Jane Hilton submitted 

works of structures in the Santa 

Monicas and on the Malibu coast. 

Her works depicting the Adamson 

House and a Temescal Canyon 

Cabin capture the synergy between 

architecture and landscape 

in Malibu. 

Robert Impellizzeri’s “Crashing Waves, Leo Carrillo” is shown. 

“I love the beauty, color, light 

and endless inspiration of the Santa 

Monica Mountains and Malibu,” 

she said. 

Ojai artist Dan Schultz considers 

Leo Carrillo State Beach an 

ideal spot to paint. 

His work, “Rugged Shoreline,” 

depicts dramatic viewpoints along 

the Malibu coastline. Schultz, who 

is the recipient of many awards for 

his impressionistic paintings, discussed 

the impressionist who most 

influenced him: William Wendt, 

an early California artist whose 

subject matter, color palette and 

stylization have inspired him. 

“I believe that plein air painting 

is hugely beneficial to the artist,” 

Schultz said. “It helps one achieve 

better color recognition, develop a 

better understanding of how light 

works in different situations, and 

simplify his or her approach and 

painting style.” 

Robert Impellizzeri’s “Crashing 

Waves, Leo Carrillo” and “Pacific 

Sentinels,” which depicts a scene 

at the end of Point Dume Beach, 

also limn seascapes that inspire. 

“I selected these works because 

they are an expression of my great 

love for the rocky cliffs of the Pacific 

coastline and the deep and 

churning blue waters of the Pacific 

Ocean,” Impellizzeri said. “Malibu’s 

coastline is special to me because 

I feel a deep connection to 

the Pacific Ocean and I feel compelled 

to live close by and visit often 

to paint.” 

Artist Beverly Lazor’s “Malibu 

Pier” captures Malibu’s iconic 

symbol from a tranquil perspective. 

“I have lived in Southern California 

since I was 7, and my parents 

always took the family on 

drives up and down the coast and 

through the Malibu mountains on 

weekends,” Lazor said. “It is my 

special go-to place when I need 

to stop and contemplate on life. It 

holds so many memories.” 

Like many of the artists exhibiting 

in the show, Lazor has been 

influenced by impressionists. 

“Monet, Van Gogh, Sorolla and 

Zorn are a few favorites,” she 

said. “I adore the use of beautiful 

muted hues, the way the textural 

brush strokes show off the hand 

and personality of the artist in 

their paintings. Painting alla prima, 

the way wet paint can sit next 

to and mix with other wet paint 

on the canvas, is very intriguing 

to me. Light seems to just bounce 

over an image.” 

Lisa Liang’s miniature work, 

titled the “Mishe Mokwa Trail,” 

intrigues. 

“Art, nature and movement are 

very important to me,” Liang said. 

“In painting it, I wanted to capture 

“Visiting Malibu,” an oil on linen by Sandra Hall, was inspired by a 

visit to Leo Carrillo State Beach, one of the artist’s favorite places to 

paint. images submitted

the golden hour. Certainly, this is 

when the California sun kisses the 

tips of the mountains and basks 

in warmth all around before it escapes. 

The expansiveness of the 

landscape was really a challenge 

to squeeze into a miniature, but 

I find miniature works to be like 

small gems.” 

Marian Fortunati also submitted 

two miniature works, both striking 

for their sense of tranquility. 

“I submitted ‘Matador and the 

Bull’ because I enjoy trying to capture 

the unique rock formations at 

El Matador,” Fortunati said. “I’ve 

painted the rock several times 

from the sand and cliff above, but 

I liked this painting because the 

people add scale and interest to the 

rock forms.”

Ashes of Hope auction nets $70K 

Malibu artists join 

in effort to benefit 

fire-related causes 


Seven Malibu artists 

joined dozens of other creative 

individuals in putting 

their talents to good 

use by participating in the 

Ashes of Hope art auction 

in downtown Los Angeles. 

The June 30 gathering 

raised more than $70,000 to 

benefit the Wildfire Relief 

Fund and Los Angeles Fire 

Department Foundation, 

according to the organizers. 

Now, select pieces from the 

collection are open to the 

public for online bidding 

at one.bidpal.net/ashesof 

hope/browse/all. 

Ashes of Hope, founded 

by TBWA\Chiat\Day Los 

Angeles, was designed 

to create awareness and 

change through art. The 

Ashes of Hope team collected 

and preserved the 

ashes from the Camp and 

Woolsey fires, and gave 

them to more than 60 

California-based artists — 

California Locos, Charles 

Artist Ned Evans, of Malibu, admires works at the Ashes 

for Hope art auction, held June 30 in downtown Los 

Angeles. Ross Martin/Ashes of Hope 

Baker, Rich Jacobs, James 

Jean are among those featured 

— for use in their respective 

works. 

Participating Malibu artists 

were: Ned Evans, Spencer 

Guilburt, Chuck Arnoldi, 

Maria Paredes, Eamon 

Harrington, Brandon Boyd 

and David Ashwell. 

Harrington’s canvas 

piece is a vivid, mixed media 

American flag, which 

the artist chose in order to 

symbolize strength and resilience. 

As of press time, 

the piece was among those 

still available through the 

online bidding process. 

“Luckily my home was 

spared in this fire (we 

burned down in 1993), but 

so many of my friends and 

neighbors have lost everything,” 

Harrington wrote in 

a statement regarding his 

participation in Ashes of 

Hope. “Creating a painting 

is the least I can do to help 

bring them relief.” 

The Ashes of Hope collection 

features sculptures, 

fine art, mixed media and 

more. Ashes of Hope is

Gallery art walk offers eclectic sampling 

Barbara Burke 


Tommy Hollenstein showcases his artistic process 

during the Malibu art walk on June 29. The event 

involved art galleries in Malibu Country Mart, Malibu 

Village and Malibu Lumber Yard. Barbara Burke/Surfside 

news 

Throngs of locals and 

tourists enjoyed Malibu’s 

first gallery art walk on June 

29. 

The event featured five 

galleries in Malibu Country 

Mart, Malibu Village and 

Malibu Lumber Yard. 

Many attendees began the 

evening at Tracy Park Gallery 

in the Country Mart, 

where 16 Malibu artists exhibited 

their works. 

“Leave it to Tracy Park, 

Malibu’s grand dame of 

the arts, to initiate the first 

annual Malibu art walk,” 

stated Eamon Harrington, of 

Red Ladder Gallery, which 

also participated in the 

event. “Tracy’s dedication 

to local artists goes back 

years. I first met her when 

she was working at Dawn 

and Bobby Walker’s gallery 

Tops, which remains to 

this day the coolest gallery I 

have ever seen.” 

At Tops, Harrington added, 

Park’s keen eye and deep 

understanding of the artistic 

process began to evolve. 

“Those qualities, coupled 

with her huge generosity of 

spirit, make her the quintessential 

curator,” Harrington 

said. “As soon as Tracy 

learned that she would be 

opening her newest gallery 

in the Country Mart, 

she was making plans to 

unite all of Malibu’s locally 

owned galleries in a night of 

artistic celebration. Tracy is 

a force of nature, and every 

artist in town owes her a big 

thank you.” 

Park’s gallery was aflutter 

with works of all genres.

art walk 

From Page 20 

“I make my jewelry here, 

and it’s such a positive thing 

to have the people of Malibu 

gather and see my work 

and all the other artists’ 

pieces,” Eric Silva said, as 

he sat amidst his collection 

of pieces that merge industrial 

and natural elements. 

Glancing around at the 

various exhibits, attendee 

Rike Boomgaarden said, 

“This house is full of good, 

happy vibes.” 

From the bright, breezy 

photographs in Julie Ellerton’s 

“Rhapsody Series” 

and Catherine Malcolm- 

Brickman’s “Parrots in 

Palm,” to the gorgeous hues 

of lupine blues and emeralds 

in Emily Scher’s “Sea 

Treasure” pieces,” many 

of the artworks celebrated 

Malibu’s majesty. 

“I love it that tonight we 

are acknowledging and celebrating 

the many talented 

artists in Malibu,” Stacy 

Leib said. “I’m very grateful 

they came out to exhibit 

here.” 

John Varvatos Malibu 

collaborated with online 

gallery Rock Paper Photo to 

exhibit a collection of striking 

images of musicians. 

The art walk served as the 

inaugural catering event for 

Cliff Diver, which is to open 

at the old Tavern 1 on Pacific 

Coast Highway. 

As guests sampled their 

cuisine and cocktails, many 

went around the corner to 

Canvas Malibu where the 

contemporary works of 

Malibu native Nick Simon 

(aka Cantstopgoodboy) 

are on display. There, they 

dined on Mediterranean cuisine 

compliments of Taverna 

Tony. 

At Red Ladder Gallery 

in Malibu Village, guests 

admired Harrington’s 

large, colorful works. Harrington’s 

pieces share his 

point of view regarding local, 

national and international 

current events. 

Surfing Cowboys also 

rode into town just in time 

to join in the event. Located 

across from First 

Bank in Malibu Village, the 

store, owned by Donna and 

Wayne Gunther, touts itself 

as the “defenders of the California 

dream.” 

There was a vibrant energy 

at the Malibu art walk, 

artist Joe McDougall observed. 

“The energy was both 

incredibly inspiring and uplifting 

as we saw the turnout 

of locals coming together to 

support one another again, 

which is a vital part of the 

healing process,” he said. 

Brian Bowen Smith Gallery 

in the Malibu Lumber 

Yard showcased 60 works 

by area artists, including 

Kathryn Brolin. 

Artist Tommy Hollenstein 

is, like many in 

Malibu, undaunted, despite 

challenging circumstances. 

He uses his wheelchair 

wheels to make intriguing, 

modern artworks and many 

attendees stopped in awe, 

admiring his live painting 

throughout the night. 

Chamber of Commerce 

CEO Barbara Bruderlin said 

there have been positive developments 

in Malibu’s arts 

community since she held a 

three-day art fair at the three 

shopping centers in Malibu 

in 2017. 

“There are now more galleries 

in Malibu,” she said. 

“It’s so wonderful to see the 

galleries flourish.” 

Addressing the comprehensive 

nature of the art 

walk and what it meant for 

Malibu, attendee John Watkin 

said: “We’re surrounded 

by high-end stores in these 

shopping areas, which is 

not what Malibu is about, 

and it’s wonderful to be reminded 

just how powerful 

the creative forces of Malibu 

are in this city, and how 

lucky we are to live here.”

Pepperdine Athletics 

Dowling returns as Waves women’s basketball coach 

Former Pepperdine women’s 

basketball assistant coach Kristen 

Dowling, who has had a successful 

run at Claremont-Mudd- 

Scripps the past seven years, will 

return to Malibu as the eighth head 

coach in program history, the university 

announced July 3. 

“Pepperdine Athletics exists to 

further our institution’s Christian 

mission, to provide an enriching, 

rewarding experience for our student-athletes 

that results in graduation, 

and to compete for championships,” 

Pepperdine Director of 

Athletics Dr. Steve Potts states in 

a press release. “Kristen Dowling 

gives us a perfect fit for those objectives. 

She brings a strong Christian 

faith, a true commitment to our 

student-athlete’s well-being as a Phi 

Beta Kappa graduate of the University 

of Redlands, and is dedicated 

to building a championship-caliber 

women’s basketball program. We 

are excited to have Kristen leading 

our women’s basketball program 

for many years to come.” 

Dowling posted a 147-46 (.762) 

record as the head coach of the 

Division-III Athenas, including 

six straight 20-win seasons and 

at least a share of six consecutive 

SCIAC regular-season championships. 

Her squads won the SCIAC 

Tournament four consecutive 

years between 2014 and 2017, and 

advanced to the NCAA Tournament 

each time. 

“I am elated to lead the Pepperdine 

women’s basketball program,” 

Dowling states in the release. “ ... 

Pepperdine’s Christian mission 

and commitment to academic and 

athletic excellence are core to who 

I am, and makes this an absolute 

dream come true. I am excited to 

get to know the current team, compete 

with purpose and build upon 

their success. The future of Pepperdine 

women’s basketball is incredibly 

bright. 

“I want to extend a heartfelt 

thank you to CMS Athletics, President 

Chodosh, Mike Sutton and 

my former players and coaches for 

believing in me and their tireless 

dedication to the program. A sincere 

thank you to the entire CMS 

community for their genuine support 

and friendship. Finally, a special 

thank you to my family and 

friends for their years of encouragement, 

support and love.” 

Her first team at Claremont- 

Mudd-Scripps posted a 9-16 record 

in 2012-13, but she turned 

the program around quickly and 

recorded a school-record 24 wins 

in 2013-14. The Athenas hit 24 

two more times since then and had 

at least 23 wins in five of the last 

six seasons. She led Claremont- 

Mudd-Scripps to its first NCAA 

Tournament victory in 2016, and 

the Athenas again won a firstround 

game in 2017. 

Dowling was named SCIAC 

Coach of the Year in 2015. Over 

seven years, she posted a 93-19 

(.830) record in conference play, 

with a remarkable 88-8 (.917) 

record the past six seasons. Her 

student-athletes won two SCIAC 

Player of the Year awards and 

were named to the All-SCIAC first 

team 10 times. 

This will be Dowling’s third 

stint at Pepperdine. She was a 

graduate assistant and academic 

advisor during the 2006-07 and 

2007-08 seasons, then returned as 

an assistant coach for the 2010-11 

and 2011-12 campaigns, all under 

former coach Julie Rousseau. The 

Waves went 32-27 during the 2011 

and 2012 seasons, and placed third 

in the West Coast Conference in 

2011 and advanced to the WNIT. 

In between those two stays at 

Pepperdine, Dowling worked as 

an assistant coach at CSU Bakersfield 

for the 2008-09 and 2009-10 

seasons. The Roadrunners went 

35-23 those two years and made

the eighth women’s basketball 

coach at Pepperdine University. 

pepperdine athletics 

their first-ever Division I postseason 

appearance in the 2010 Women’s 

Basketball Invitational. 

Dowling is a 2004 Phi Beta 

Kappa graduate of the University 

of Redlands, earning a bachelor’s 

degree in Spanish with a minor in 

physical education. As a studentathlete, 

she helped the Bulldogs to 

their second SCIAC title in 2004 

and a WBCA Class Act Achievement 

Award. 

Dowling also earned a master’s 

degree from Pepperdine in educational 

technology in 2007. 

She is a graduate of Nike’s “So 

You Want to Be a Coach” program, 

as well as the NCAA Women’s 

Coaches Academy. In 2018, 

she served as an on-court coach 

for the USA Basketball U17 World 

Cup Team Trials. 

Dowling takes over a program 

that was on the rise under Delisha 

Milton-Jones. The Waves 

went 22-12 last season, tied for 

third place in the WCC (the best 

showing since 2011), made the 

WCC Tournament semifinals (for 

the first time since 2010) and won 

the program’s two first postseason 

games in the modern era, making 

it to the Round of 16 in the WNIT. 

The Waves are slated to return 

three starters and seven letterwinners, 

including four of the top five 

scorers. Returners account for 50 

percent of last year’s scoring.

SMMUSD reacts to death of alumnus, MLB pitcher 

Skaggs was found 

unresponsive in his Texas 

hotel room on July 1 


The Santa Monica-Malibu Unified 

School District community is 

mourning the unexpected death of 

Los Angeles Angels pitcher Tyler 

Skaggs. 

The 27-year-old Santa Monica 

High School graduate died July 

1. According to a press release 

from the Southlake Police Department, 

Skaggs was found unresponsive 

in his room at a Texas 

Hilton hotel at 2:18 p.m.; he was 

pronounced dead at the scene. No 

foul play was suspected. 

Skaggs, a 2009 graduate of 

Samohi, also attended SM- 

MUSD’s Roosevelt Elementary 

School and Lincoln Middle 

School. A statement from Superintendent 

Ben Drati said SMMUSD 

was “devastated to hear the news.” 

This past January, Skaggs 

joined various athletes and celebrities 

at Pepperdine University to 

play in the California Strong celebrity 

softball game which raised 

funds to support those impacted 

by the shooting at Borderline Bar 

and Grill as well as the Camp and 

Woolsey fires. 

California Strong — a nonprofit 

effort formed by Los Angeles 

Rams quarterback Jared Goff 

and Milwaukee Brewers players 

Christian Yelich, Ryan Braun and 

Mike Moustakas — commented 

on the news. 

“The CA Strong family mourns 

the loss of our good friend Tyler 

Skaggs,” the organization stated in 

a Twitter post. “Tyler was a supporter 

of a number of charitable 

causes and always wanted to make 

other people’s lives better. Our 

thoughts and prayers go out to his 

wife, Carli, his family, teammates, 

and his many friends and fans.” 

Skaggs’ mother, Debbie, is a 

physical education teacher with 

SMMUSD, and previously served 

as the Santa Monica High School 

girls softball coach, the district 

noted. 

“Tyler continued to make visits 

to our schools the past several 

years to speak with students and 

we proudly watched his ascent 

in professional baseball, along 

with his family,” Drati’s statement 

said. “ ... Our thoughts 

and prayers are with his family, 

friends and fans during this difficult 

time.”

Goudzwaard happy 

to keep softball in life 

Michal Dwojak 

Assistant Editor 

Amelia Goudzwaard 

knew she wouldn’t be a 

Division-I athlete when 

she graduated Malibu High 

School, but she wanted to 

find a way to keep softball 

in her life. 

The Malibu alumna has 

played the sport for 10 

years, with it helping shape 

the person she is today. So 

while she wasn’t going to 

play at the University of 

Southern California, she 

needed to find a way to 

play. 

That’s why Goudzwaard 

was excited when 

she found she could continue 

to play the sport if 

she makes the school’s 

club team. While nothing 

is certain yet, the potential 

for another four years of 

softball is important. 

“I’m really excited to 

play on the club team,” 

Goudzwaard said. “It’s not 

a guarantee, obviously, so 

I think I realized after my 

senior year how much I really 

do like the sport and 

how much the team means 

to me and the friendships 

you can make from 

it and what it can teach 

you.” 

She had no idea what the 

sport was and the impact 

it would have in her life 

when she started to play at 

the age of 8. Goudzwaard 

mentioned softball helped 

her become a better leader 

as she continued to play 

the sport as she grew up 

and went on through high 

school. The game helped 

her humble herself, realize 

what it means to become a 

better player, and nothing 

was a better example than 

her senior season. 

The senior recovered 

from an injury that forced 

her junior-season numbers 

to be lower than she wanted. 

After working hard to 

get back, Goudzwaard’s 

offensive numbers exploded 

and helped show how 

her hard work paid off. 

“It was incredibly important,” 

Goudzwaard 

said, of her rebound senior 

season. “I was incredibly 

proud of myself for the 

way that I performed, not 

only because I actually 

did it, but I didn’t put so 

much pressure on myself 

and let whatever was going 

to happen actually 

happen.” 

But Goudzwaard knew 

she wanted to focus on her 

studies when she arrives 

on the USC campus. The 

Los Angeles school was always 

a goal for the Malibu 

resident and a high priority 

for the whole family. Once 

she got that acceptance 

package, she was filled 

with joy because she realized 

her dreams, not thinking 

about whether softball 

would be there. 

“I didn’t think about it 

too much because I knew 

I didn’t want to play a D-I 

sport because I didn’t want 

to become a semiprofessional 

athlete and stress 

my body so much as well 

as going to the STEM 

field,” Goudzwaard said. 

So while she prepares 

for the rigor that USC will 

present for her in the classroom, 

Goudzwaard hopes 

she will still have softball 

to help guide her along 

the way. Tryouts will take 

place during the school 

year and she’ll give it her 

all like she did her last year 

in Malibu. 

Softball has always been 

there, and, hopefully, it 

will help her during the 

next portion of her life. 

“It’s really taught me 

how to be humble and 

how important positivity is 

and what it also means to 

be a leader,” Goudzwaard 

said. “Without the sport, I 

wouldn’t be the leader that 

I am today.”

tournament 


Malibu High School 

students Liam Moore and 

Maya Mellberg were part 

of a winning effort June 23, 

while playing in a Westside 

Volleyball advanced-division 

adult tournament in 

Los Angeles. 

Malibu High School volleyball 

coach Derek Saenz 

invited Moore and Mellberg, 

believing that the two 

were up to the challenge. 

The team came away with 

a 7-1, first-place finish. 

“They played very well

explained. “Liam is developing

Saenz said his “powerhouse”

“the one to beat,” as

Sharing the experience 

with the MHS athletes was 

important to Saenz, and he

“It’s a mindset that has 

not been pushed in the past

it’s such an abstract thing to 

want to go for, but hopefully 

now with experiencing it
