COMMUNICATING<br />
LEADERSHIP<br />
by Ted Saul<br />
SEE PAGE 14<br />
Leadership training will tell you that to lead effectively<br />
possessing good communication skills is required.<br />
Here are some ways to communicate with your employees<br />
and customers.<br />
If the size of your company permits, meet with employees<br />
regularly one-on-one. Getting out of the office<br />
and taking them to lunch or coffee is an excellent way to<br />
open up lines of communication.<br />

UHS SOCAL MEC LAUNCHES FOUR NEW GRADUATE<br />
MEDICAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS<br />
Universal Health Services Southern<br />
California Medical Education<br />
Consortium (UHS SoCal MEC) has<br />
been approved by the Accreditation<br />
Council for Graduate Medical Education<br />
(ACGME) to launch four new<br />
programs in <strong>July</strong> <strong>2022</strong> for General<br />
Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynecology,<br />
Pulmonary and Sports Medicine, facilitated<br />
through Temecula Valley Hospital,<br />
Southwest Healthcare System<br />
and Corona Regional Medical Center.<br />
“We are extremely excited to continue<br />
adding Graduate Medical Education<br />
training to Southwest Riverside<br />
County with the recent additions of our<br />
UHS SoCal MEC residency programs<br />
in Ob/Gyn and General Surgery, and<br />
fellowships in Pulmonary and Sports<br />
Medicine,” said Michael Nduati, MD,<br />
MBA, MPH, FAAFP, Chief Academic<br />
Officer and Designated Institutional<br />
Official, UHS Southern California<br />
Medical Education Consortium. “With<br />
our dedicated physician faculty and<br />
future graduates, we will continue<br />
to raise the level of clinical care and<br />
help address physician shortages in the<br />
region. These training programs will<br />
provide a significant positive impact<br />
for the communities we serve.”<br />
The Obstetrics and Gynecology<br />
Residency is a four-year program under<br />
the direction of Kimberly Tustison,<br />
MD, and will accept three residents<br />
per year at Southwest Healthcare<br />
System. The program aims to provide<br />
superior education and develop<br />
resilient physicians who will provide<br />
professional, compassionate, high<br />
quality obstetric and gynecologic<br />
healthcare for women. The program<br />
strives to train physician leaders to<br />
care for the women of our community.<br />
The curriculum includes inpatient<br />
obstetric care; comprehensive gynecologic<br />
care in the office, hospital, and<br />
operating rooms; ambulatory training<br />
in private clinics, continuity clinic,<br />
and the outpatient surgery center; and<br />
sub-specialty experiences including<br />
gynecologic oncology, outpatient<br />
and inpatient maternal fetal medicine,<br />
urogynecology, family planning<br />
and reproductive endocrinology and<br />
infertility.<br />
The new fully accredited General<br />
Surgery Residency Program is a fiveyear<br />
program, placing three residents<br />
per year at Corona Regional Medical<br />
Center, Southwest Healthcare System<br />
and Temecula Valley Hospital. This<br />
new program will expand surgery<br />
training opportunities and attract<br />
more top medical talent to the Inland<br />
Empire. The program will allow UHS<br />
to train the next generation of surgeons<br />
to provide compassionate care with a<br />
commitment to improving the health of<br />
the diverse communities that we serve.<br />
The Pulmonary Fellowship program,<br />
led by David Lee, MD, is a 2-year<br />
program for two fellows per year at<br />
Temecula Valley Hospital. The program<br />
provides excellent exposure and training<br />
in all aspects of pulmonary disease from<br />
routine outpatient practice to advanced<br />
lung disease and transplantation. The<br />
primary goal of this program is to train<br />
a competent well rounded specialty consultant<br />
to prepare them for a broad range<br />
of career opportunities upon graduation.<br />
This training is provided by both didactic<br />
instruction and direct patient care<br />
under the direct supervision of expert<br />
pulmonary, critical care, sleep medicine<br />
and other faculty. Didactic instruction is<br />
provided in all areas of pulmonology and<br />
critical care as outlined in the specific<br />
topic areas required by the ACGME.<br />
The Primary Care Sports Medicine<br />
Fellowship is a one-year program with<br />
two sports medicine fellows led by Jerry<br />
Hizon, MD. This program will help in<br />
the community with team care, event<br />
care and individual care of active/athletic<br />
patients. It will use state-of-the-art musculoskeletal<br />
ultrasound to aid in exact diagnosis.<br />
The fellows will engage in community<br />
service at the local high schools,<br />
Mount San Jacinto College, as well as<br />
with Temecula Valley Pop Warner teams<br />
and will academically be involved with<br />
the American Medical Society Sports<br />
Medicine, Olympic Training Facility and<br />
Ballet Performing Arts in San Diego, Ski<br />
Trauma at Mammoth Mountain and anatomy<br />
teaching high schools of Temecula<br />
Valley Unified School District. At the<br />
conclusion of their training, they will sit<br />
for the sports medicine boards to obtain<br />
a certificate of added qualifications in<br />
Primary Care Sports Medicine.<br />
“Adding these additional residency<br />
programs on top of our already successful<br />
Family Practice, Internal Medicine, and<br />
Emergency Medicine programs allow<br />
us to provide additional support to our<br />
patients, facilities, and community,” said<br />
Group Vice President for UHS Southern<br />
California Region, Brad Neet. “In addition,<br />
we are excited to begin our Cardiology<br />
Fellowship program at Temecula<br />
Valley Hospital in <strong>July</strong> of <strong>2022</strong>. Our goal<br />
is to retain these individuals in order to<br />
ensure high quality care over the long<br />
term in Southwest Riverside County.”<br />

Making Every Drop Count Matters More Now<br />
Like most Elsinore Valley Municipal<br />
Water District (EVMWD)<br />
customers, you recognize that conservation<br />
is a way of life in California.<br />
We greatly appreciate everything<br />
you are doing to reduce water use.<br />
However, as the drought continues<br />
and we face the warmer months of<br />
our third dry year, now is the time to<br />
re-examine how we can work together<br />
to save even more water during these<br />
unprecedented times.<br />
Gov. Newsom’s approach to limiting<br />
summertime water use requires<br />
all Californians to do their part to use<br />
water wisely while also giving local<br />
water managers discretion based on<br />
local supply conditions. EVMWD has<br />
a local voluntary water use reduction<br />
of 10-20 percent currently in place. These<br />
actions underscore the serious challenges<br />
faced by California in maintaining a reliable<br />
supply of water during a drought.<br />
This year’s January to March period is<br />
the driest on record and as of April 1,<br />
the state’s snowpack plummeted to just<br />
38% of average.<br />
A good place to start is by evaluating<br />
what you’re already doing to reduce<br />
water use and finding new ways to save.<br />
There are many water saving tips on sites<br />
such as www.saveourwater.com. You<br />
can also find information on how to save<br />
more water as well as available rebates at<br />
www.evmwd.com/conservation.<br />
A majority of residential water use<br />
comes from outdoor uses, such as landscaping,<br />
cleaning sidewalks and driveways.<br />
Reducing landscape watering time,<br />
watering only after 6 p.m. and before 6<br />
a.m., replacing lawns with drought-tolerant<br />
landscaping, and using brooms<br />
instead of hoses to clean off driveways<br />
are some ways that residents can help<br />
save water.<br />
If the past drought taught us anything,<br />
it is that water is a precious resource that<br />
should not be wasted. There are many<br />
relatively easy ways to conserve water.<br />
In addition to ongoing efficiency,<br />
we also thank you for supporting<br />
significant investments in local<br />
drought-resilient supplies. These<br />
investments have made us better prepared<br />
for this drought and for future<br />
prolonged droughts. That preparation<br />
– combined with your water-wise habits<br />
– is key to achieving an efficient<br />
and resilient water future.<br />
If the past drought taught us anything, it is that water is a precious resource that should<br />
not be wasted. There are many relatively easy ways to conserve water.

How Does Your Life Insurance Policy Fit into an Estate Plan?<br />
If you have an estate plan, do you still<br />
have a need for a life insurance policy?<br />
Even if you have plenty of assets to pass<br />
down to your loved ones after your passing,<br />
having life insurance will still help<br />
you prepare for the unexpected.<br />
5 Ways to Include Life Insurance into<br />
Your Estate Plan<br />
A life insurance plan is always a good<br />
idea, whether you have loved ones who<br />
would benefit from the money or not. No<br />
one knows when they will pass away, and<br />
financial assistance is always appreciated<br />
to help with financial stress caused by the<br />
death of a loved one.<br />
1. Paying for Funeral Arrangements:<br />
Use money from life insurance to pay<br />
for the end-of-life care of your choice.<br />
It can be overwhelming to pay for a<br />
gathering for all the people who want<br />
to attend and honor a life well-lived.<br />
Having the money from life insurance<br />
can ease the burden without having to<br />
dip into savings.<br />
2. Rolling Life Insurance Money into<br />
a Trust: Use the money from life<br />
insurance to support living family<br />
members after your death. You can<br />
leave instructions for a trustee to dole<br />
out the money according to a timeline<br />
or an age of inheritance.<br />
3. Faster Payout for Loved Ones:<br />
There can be a lot of red tape when<br />
it comes to reviewing the will, possible<br />
probate, and dividing of assets.<br />
Life insurance funds come through<br />
quickly and can be divided among<br />
the beneficiaries as they await other<br />
inheritances.<br />
4. Ease in Dividing Inheritance Payments:<br />
Perhaps you have two beneficiaries,<br />
and it is difficult to divide<br />
assets straight down the middle. The<br />
life insurance payment can add ease to<br />
this task. For example, one beneficiary<br />
may get the life insurance money<br />
while the other beneficiary gets a real<br />
estate property.<br />
5. Covering Estate Taxes: The family<br />
has nine months to pay estate taxes<br />
after someone dies. Life insurance<br />
policies are a great way to cover this<br />
estate tax. Then, the family does not<br />
have to use unplanned funds or come<br />
up with the money to pay the taxes on<br />
the entire estate.<br />

estate plan? Shoup Legal is here to help.<br />

JDS Creative Academy Gets Ready to Kick off Fall Classes<br />
9<br />
When you think of pursuing the creative<br />
arts, what comes to mind? Maybe<br />
it’s perfecting your acting and singing<br />
abilities, writing the next award-winning<br />
script, or becoming the creative director<br />
behind costuming and makeup. What you<br />
may not have considered is that indulging<br />
in the creative arts helps to build character<br />
and self-confidence.<br />
From social communication and collaboration<br />
skills to leadership and public<br />
speaking skills, choosing to partake in<br />
the visual, performing, and digital arts is<br />
proven to be beneficial to personal growth.<br />
At JDS Studios there is an array of classes<br />
that JDS Creative Academy offers to fill a<br />
void that may be missing in youth, teen,<br />
and adult lives.<br />
Every year, JDS Creative Academy<br />
(JDSCA) holds its seasonal visual, performing,<br />
and digital arts classes. Their<br />
scriptwriting, fashion design, musical theatre,<br />
acting, and spooky “Haunted Studio”<br />
courses provide not only the opportunity<br />
to learn a new talent or continue to pursue<br />
a passion but also room to grow into<br />
one’s truest self. The #JDSFamily strives<br />
to create a positive outlet and learning<br />
environment. In our day-to-day lives,<br />
there can often be a lack of opportunity to<br />
step outside of your comfort zone. JDSCA<br />
helps by creating a safe place to enjoy that<br />
experience.<br />
JDSCA’s scriptwriting class provides<br />
students with the professional guidance<br />
and judge-free environment needed to<br />
develop their personal projects and writing<br />
skills. While the experience will help students<br />
familiarize themselves with topics<br />
such as story structure, theme, dialogue,<br />
formatting, and other fundamentals, students<br />
also gain the tenacity to make their<br />
work known.<br />
Students collaborate with their peers<br />
while creating an open environment to<br />
build confidence in their work. At the<br />
conclusion of the class, students share<br />
their scripts as actors perform their newly<br />
written words at the winter showcase.<br />
Scriptwriting classes begin on Monday,<br />
August 20 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.<br />
Fashion lovers and design enthusiasts<br />
will gain hands-on experience in fashion,<br />
sketching, working with color and fabric,<br />
and designing sets, props, and costumes.<br />
Students learn sewing skills, creating<br />
and working with patterns, costuming<br />
techniques, building props, working backstage,<br />
and stage and special-effects makeup.<br />
Fashion and backstage production<br />
provides skills in logistics while giving<br />
an artistic outlet for self-expression and<br />
boosts self-esteem. As students learn the<br />
ins and outs of working behind the scenes<br />
of a stage production, they also learn how<br />
to collaborate with a team and coexist with<br />
others. Fashion and backstage production<br />
classes start on Wednesday, August 31<br />
from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.<br />
The Haunted Studio, JDSCA’s handson<br />
haunted house, continues to get spookier<br />
each year! Students create new bonds<br />
and friendships while designing, building,<br />
and executing a full-scale haunted house<br />
that takes over the entire studio. The collaborative<br />
experience helps students gain a<br />
better understanding of the arts and themselves.<br />
Participants walk away with boosted<br />
self-confidence which they can utilize<br />
to be more sociable in their traditional<br />
school environment. The Haunted Studio<br />
is open to the public and takes place on<br />
Friday, October 28, and Saturday, October<br />
29, 6:30-9:30 p.m. Come out to support<br />
since it’s also a fundraiser to raise money<br />
for the nonprofit scholarship program. All<br />
designers, builders, and haunters join us<br />
on Wednesday, September 28 at 5 p.m to<br />
be behind the thrills and chills.<br />
The JDS Family prides itself on<br />
creating an inclusive environment that<br />
encourages students from all walks of life<br />
and all levels of experience to learn the<br />
creative arts. Whether you’re a beginner<br />
or a seasoned professional, JDS Creative<br />
Academy welcomes you! Fall classes are<br />
now enrolling.<br />

Co-Ownership Agreement–Unmarried Couples Buying Real Property<br />
Together Without Getting Burned<br />
By Kiki Manti Engel<br />
There has been a rise in couples cohabitating<br />
and purchasing real property<br />
together before getting married. While<br />
California is a community property<br />
state, California Law does not recognize<br />
common law marriages, and unmarried<br />
individuals are generally not entitled to<br />
support following a breakup. I have had<br />
countless consultations with individuals<br />
who purchased real property with their<br />
significant other before getting married<br />
and then they break up/separate. Oftentimes,<br />
one individual is solely obligated<br />
to pay the mortgage on the real property<br />
while both individuals are listed<br />
as co-owners on title. The question is,<br />
what happens now? Well, technically<br />
both are co-owners and they both have<br />
equal rights of management and control<br />
of the real property. What this means is<br />
that one individual alone cannot sell the<br />
real property unless both agree to sell it.<br />
The other options are for one individual<br />
to offer to buy out the other individual’s<br />
interest or to file a lawsuit with the Court<br />
to partition the real property and divide<br />
the proceeds therefrom. Also, if you are<br />
the sole obligor on the mortgage, you<br />
must continue to pay to avoid a negative<br />
impact on your credit and/or foreclosure.<br />
This is quite the conundrum, as most<br />
nonmarried couples do not envision that<br />
their relationship will end (which is why<br />
they agree to buy real property together<br />
in the first place), so they do not have<br />
a co-ownership agreement in place to<br />
address this worst-case scenario.<br />
Co-ownership of real property prior<br />
to marriage without any written agreements<br />
in place is a pervasive problem.<br />
I spoke with a senior colleague of mine,<br />
Elliott Luchs, to ask if he has ever drafted<br />
a nonmarital real property ownership<br />
agreement. To my surprise, in his nearly<br />
50 years of experience as an attorney,<br />
he has drafted this type of premarital/<br />
nonmarital real property co-ownership<br />
agreement several times. Mr. Luchs has<br />
also drafted Nonmarital Cohabitation<br />
Agreements, which are between nonmarried<br />
couples who live together but who<br />
are not acquiring real property.<br />
Many couples<br />
are reluctant to discuss<br />
the “what if”<br />
we break up scenario.<br />
However, it is vitally<br />
important for nonmarried<br />
co-owners<br />
(or cohabitants) of<br />
real property to have<br />
a written agreement<br />
in place to protect<br />
themselves. If you<br />
decide to co-own<br />
property with your<br />
significant other<br />
while unmarried,<br />
have this frank discussion<br />
with them,<br />
and see what happens.<br />
More often<br />
than not, your significant other has the<br />
same reservations or concerns. Best<br />
case scenario is you never need such an<br />
agreement, but you will be glad you have<br />
one if things do go south.<br />

Eye Protection<br />
by Pat Utnehmer<br />
THE VALLEY BUSINESS JOURNAL<br />
www.TheValleyBusinessJournal.com<br />
17<br />
Eye injuries in the workplace are<br />
very common. The National Institute for<br />
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)<br />
reports that every day about 2,000 U.S.<br />
workers sustain job-related eye injuries<br />
that require medical treatment. However,<br />
safety experts and eye doctors believe<br />
the right eye protection can lessen the<br />
severity or even prevent 90 percent of<br />
these eye injuries.<br />
Chemicals or foreign objects in the<br />
eye and cuts or scrapes on the cornea are<br />
common eye injuries that occur at work.<br />
Other common eye injuries come from<br />
splashes with grease and oil, burns from<br />
steam, ultraviolet or infrared radiation<br />
exposure, and flying wood or metal chips.<br />
In addition, health care workers,<br />
laboratory and janitorial staff, and other<br />
workers may be at risk of acquiring<br />
infectious diseases from eye exposure.<br />
Some infectious diseases can be transmitted<br />
through the mucous membranes<br />
of the eye. This can occur through direct<br />
exposure to blood splashes, respiratory<br />
droplets generated during coughing, or<br />
from touching the eyes with contaminated<br />
fingers or other objects.<br />
Workers experience eye injuries on<br />
the job for two major reasons:<br />
1. They were not wearing eye<br />
protection.<br />
2. They were wearing the wrong<br />
kind of protection for the job.<br />
A Bureau of Labor Statistics survey<br />
of workers who suffered eye injuries revealed<br />
that nearly three out of five were<br />
not wearing eye protection at the time of<br />
the accident. These workers most often<br />
reported that they believed protection was<br />
not required for the situation.<br />
The Occupational Safety and Health<br />
Administration (OSHA) requires workers<br />
to use eye and face protection whenever<br />
there is a reasonable probability of injury<br />
that could be prevented by such equipment.<br />
Personal protective eyewear, such<br />
as goggles, face shields, safety glasses or<br />
full-face respirators must be used when<br />
an eye hazard exists. The necessary eye<br />
protection depends upon the type of hazard,<br />
the circumstances of exposure, other<br />
protective equipment used and individual<br />
vision needs.<br />
Workplace eye protection is needed<br />
when the following potential eye<br />
hazards are present:<br />
• Projectiles (dust, concrete, metal, wood<br />
and other particles)<br />
• Chemicals (splashes and fumes)<br />
• Radiation (especially visible light,<br />
ultraviolet radiation, heat or infrared<br />
radiation, and lasers)<br />
• Bloodborne pathogens (hepatitis or<br />
HIV) from blood and body fluids<br />
Computer Vision Syndrome, also referred<br />
to as Digital Eye Strain, describes a<br />
group of eye and vision-related problems<br />
that result from prolonged computer,<br />
tablet, e-reader and cell phone use. The<br />
average American worker spends seven<br />
hours a day on the computer either in the<br />
office or working from home.<br />
The type of safety eye protection you<br />
should wear depends on the hazards in<br />
your workplace:<br />
• If you are working in an area that has<br />
particles, flying objects or dust, you<br />
must at least wear safety glasses with<br />
side protection (side shields).<br />
• If you are working with chemicals, you<br />
must wear goggles.<br />
• If you are working near hazardous<br />
radiation (welding, lasers or fiber<br />
optics) you must use special-purpose<br />
safety glasses, goggles, face shields or<br />
helmets designed for that task.<br />
Know the requirements for your<br />
work environment. Side shields placed<br />
on your conventional (dress) glasses do<br />
not provide enough protection to meet<br />
the OSHA requirement for many work<br />
environments.<br />
In addition, employers need to take<br />
steps to make the work environment as<br />
safe as possible. This includes:<br />
• Conducting an eye hazard assessment<br />
of the workplace<br />
• Removing or reducing eye hazards<br />
where possible<br />
• Providing appropriate safety eyewear<br />
and requiring employees to wear it<br />
Your optometrist can assist your<br />
employer and you in evaluating potential<br />
eye hazards in your workplace and<br />
determining what type of eye protection<br />
may be needed.<br />
There are four things you can do to<br />
protect your eyes from injury:<br />
1. Know the eye safety dangers at<br />
your work.<br />
2. Eliminate hazards before starting<br />
work by using machine guards,<br />
work screens or other engineering<br />
controls.<br />
3. Use proper eye protection.<br />
4. Keep your safety eyewear in<br />
good condition and have it replaced<br />
if it becomes damaged<br />

& Lasik, (951) 296-2211.<br />

who suffered eye injuries<br />

Murrieta’s Federal Community Project Funding Requests Selected for Federal<br />
Appropriations Committee Consideration<br />
Rep. Ken Calvert selected<br />
the City of Murrieta’s Keller<br />
Road Interchange Project in<br />
the amount of $2.6 million as<br />
one of his federal appropriations<br />
within the Community<br />
Project Funding program and<br />
this week it was included in the<br />
House Transportation-HUD<br />
appropriations bill, moving<br />
further along in the process.<br />
To meet the needs of communities<br />
across the country,<br />
the Appropriations Committee<br />
accepts programmatic, language-based,<br />
and Community<br />
Project Funding requests from<br />
members of Congress. While<br />
this selection is the first step<br />
in the legislative process, it<br />
is a major milestone to secure<br />
federal funding for the interchange<br />
project.<br />
The requested funding<br />
would be used to advance the<br />
I-215 and Keller Road Interchange<br />
Project, which would provide<br />
critical access to a regional medical<br />
center. The $2.6 million in funding would<br />
supplement the $18.4 million already<br />
committed for the project. The City of<br />
Murrieta is actively applying for other<br />
grant and funding opportunities to make<br />
up the total project cost of $47 million.<br />
In addition, Murrieta’s Dispatch<br />
Technology Funding Request was selected<br />
as one of Senator Feinstein’s<br />
Commerce, Justice, and Science Subcommittee<br />
requests in the amount of<br />
$275,000. The City of Murrieta’s dispatch<br />
technology project would improve<br />
the City’s communications center which<br />
also serves the City of Menifee.<br />
The Community Project Funding<br />
program was implemented in 2021, allowing<br />
members of Congress to submit<br />
eligible requests to set aside funds within<br />
specific federal accounts for projects proposed<br />
by public institutions, localities,<br />
states, Tribes, or non-profits. Last year,<br />
Murrieta received federal funding as part<br />
of the Fiscal Year <strong>2022</strong> Appropriations<br />
bill, bringing $1.1 million to Western<br />
Riverside County to fund homeless<br />
prevention efforts and emergency preparedness.<br />
Murrieta’s regional homeless<br />
services received $500,000 and $600,000<br />
was allocated for emergency operations<br />
equipment at Loma Linda University<br />
Medical Center Murrieta.<br />
The City of Murrieta shared its<br />
appreciation for the partnership with<br />
Congressman Calvert’s office. “The City<br />
of Murrieta is proud of the partnership<br />
we have had over the years with our<br />
congressional representative,” Murrieta<br />
Mayor Jonathan Ingra said. “This support<br />
will assist in funding two Murrieta<br />
projects that will provide regional impact<br />
on public safety and access to Murrieta’s<br />
medical corridor.” For more information<br />

Sharing and Caring: Insight Schools of California grateful for connecting<br />
withDr. Mona Salomo-Davies<br />
By Monica Chatfield<br />
When Insight Schools of California<br />
(ISCA) started planning their first<br />
in-person graduation ceremony, their<br />
first since 2019, they knew they had<br />
to select a keynote speaker carefully<br />
from the community. Whom could<br />
speak to the graduates and help them<br />
realize that earning their diploma<br />
was a tremendous accomplishment<br />
and steppingstone towards a brighter<br />
future? Whom could empathize with<br />
these graduates’ backgrounds and inspire<br />
them with their experience and<br />
practical next steps how to follow their<br />
ambitions?<br />
Luck was on Insight’s side as<br />
Graduation Coordinator, Monica<br />
Chatfield, happened upon an article<br />
found on PATCH.com highlighting<br />
the Community Outreach Ministry, a<br />
nonprofit organization in Wildomar<br />
offering services to children whose parents<br />
have been incarcerated. In reading<br />
about Dr. Mona Salomo-Davies and her<br />
husband Coach Bob and their Science,<br />
Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics<br />
(STEM) workshop at the Spring<br />
Technology Day Camp in Murrieta for<br />
the youth they served, Chatfield knew<br />
she had found the right connection for<br />
the Insight graduates.<br />
Insight School of California is an<br />
online charter school serving at-risk<br />
9-12 grade students throughout the state<br />
of California. Students come to ISCA<br />
after experiencing challenges that make<br />
attending a traditional high school no<br />
longer an option for them. The students<br />
and staff are all remote and the graduation<br />
ceremony is their biggest in-person event<br />
of the year. Unfortunately, ISCA has not<br />
held an in-person ceremony for the past<br />
two years due to Covid-19. There was<br />
uncertainty that the graduation ceremony<br />
would even happen this year, but luckily<br />
with the relaxing of Covid-19 restrictions,<br />
they were able to seize the opportunity to<br />
bring this joyous event to life.<br />
When Ms. Chatfield contacted Dr<br />
Mona Salomo-Davies to inquire about<br />
her being the keynote speaker, not only<br />
did she agree to be the speaker, but Dr. Salomo-Davies<br />
has taken on a true interest<br />
in helping the students of ISCA to make<br />
the most of the opportunities in their<br />
area to find assistance in locating gainful<br />
employment and taking advantage of services<br />
that apply to them. Dr. Salomo-Davies<br />
spoke at a virtual career chat with<br />
dozens of students ahead of her keynote<br />
speech that highlighted numerous practical<br />
career tips that students could utilize<br />
now and after graduation. In addition,<br />
Dr. Salomo-Davies has continuously<br />
provided information about opportunities<br />
in and around Riverside County targeting<br />
teens and young adults seeking a career<br />
in various fields, especially STEM and<br />
Law Enforcement. Dr. Salomo-Davies<br />
has become a true friend of ISCA, as well<br />
as an invaluable resource.<br />
The graduation ceremony was held<br />
on June 15, <strong>2022</strong>, at the Pearson Park<br />
Amphitheater in Anaheim, California.<br />
It was a hot sunny day, and the student’s<br />
spirits were invigorated. Dr. Salomo-Davies<br />
words spoke directly to the graduates<br />
as she talked about her childhood and<br />
needing to grow up at an early age to<br />
support herself. Dr. Salomo-Davies knew<br />
exactly where these kids have been and<br />
what they are faced with as young adults<br />
going out into an uncertain world.<br />
We are extremely grateful that Dr.<br />
Salomo-Davies did us the honor of<br />
speaking to our graduating class of <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
The ISCA is excited to count Dr. Mona<br />
Salomo-Davies as a supporter and friend<br />
of the school and we are excited to see<br />
our partnership grow!<br />
“ Insight School of<br />
California is an online<br />
charter school<br />
serving at-risk 9-12<br />
grade students<br />
throughout the state<br />
of California.

EXECUTIVE PROFILE | Pat Utnehmer<br />
I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin with six brothers and<br />
sisters, so when I found Rancho California in 1986 I felt right at<br />
home.<br />
Being one of the first eye doctors<br />
in town made it pretty easy to stay<br />
busy right away. Dr Bob Beck was<br />
the only dentist in town and he<br />
invited me to go down to Loreto<br />
Mexico for weekend medical clinics.<br />
This was fun because we flew<br />
right out of the old airport which<br />
used to be parallel to Diaz road on<br />
the west side of the 15 freeway. I<br />
had just gotten my pilots license so<br />
this flying doctors thing was right<br />
up my alley. That’s been going on<br />
for thirty-three years and we were<br />
just there last May.<br />
Haiti is also another great place<br />
that needs medical help so when Dr<br />
Walt Combs asked me to go there<br />
thirty years ago I jumped in and<br />
have enjoyed serving there with<br />
that group of doctors ever since.<br />
My wife Bonnie comes on every<br />
trip too and works harder than me.<br />
It was very easy to get involved with<br />
the community back in the early<br />
years, all you had to say was “yes””<br />
and you were in. Rotary Club, Boys<br />
and Girls Club, Wine and Balloon,<br />
Tractor Race. It seemed everyone in<br />
town helped out and I have developed<br />
a lot of great friendships from<br />
being part of that.<br />
I believe that God has really blessed<br />
this valley over the past fourty years<br />
in part because I knew the first leaders<br />
of Temecula and they had the same<br />
morals and ideals that the men who<br />
started this country had.<br />
Temecula still is a place that feels<br />
safer and a little more protected than<br />
other parts of this country and that’s<br />
why I love living here.<br />
BUSINESS PHILOSOPHIES:<br />
My first real business plan was to do<br />
it like Nordstroms . No problem we<br />
can exchange that, fix ,that, return<br />
that. Just keep our patients happy and<br />
it has worked pretty good. Going to<br />
work everyday and loving what you<br />
do helps too. In any service business<br />
like Optometry the strategy is simple,<br />
just treat or take care of people like<br />
you would want to be treated or taken<br />
care of.<br />
FAVORITE SPORT:<br />
Now it’s golf. Love that we have so<br />
many great courses out here. I am<br />
going back to Wisconsin next week<br />
to golf with my eighty eight year old<br />
dad. He still plays 18 holes every<br />
week, not too bad. I have a wife who<br />
can kick my butt in racketball so we<br />
don’t play that much anymore. But we<br />
both still waterski, snowski and golf.<br />
GOALS:<br />
Haven’t thought about this much<br />
lately because I’m getting older but<br />
I would like to be a better Godly<br />
example for my wife and children.<br />
MENTORS:<br />
Walt Combs and Keith Johnson.<br />
I have always looked up to these<br />
two men and have really learned a<br />
lot about doing the right thing from<br />
them. Dr Combs I mentioned earlier<br />
but Keith Johnson who was a banker<br />
in Temecula went to heaven a few<br />
years ago but was a really solid guy<br />
who I will always miss.<br />
FAVORITE READINGS:<br />
Any autobiographies, I love history<br />
so if I have time to read I normally<br />
look for cool guys from the past.<br />
RESUME:<br />
Undergrad from UW Madison so I<br />
am a Badger. O.D. from Southern<br />
Ca College of Optometry 1984.<br />
And recently I found an old paper<br />
clipping that I came in third place<br />
with my cat at a dog show when I<br />
was seven. So I’ve got that going<br />
for me.<br />
BIRTHPLACE:<br />

Welcome to the<br />
REALTOR® Report<br />
by<br />
Steve Fillingim<br />
I have been anxiously waiting to see the numbers for April to see the impact of the increase<br />
in mortgage rates.<br />
Today is also Election Day, and I<br />
hope you exercised your right to vote.<br />
As I always say, you can’t complain<br />
if you don’t participate! Before we<br />
jump into the numbers, last month, I<br />
wrote that our National Chief Economist<br />
was optimistic that we were<br />
not headed into a recession mainly<br />
due to the strength of the job economy,<br />
specifically the number of jobs<br />
available. Since then, we have seen<br />
inflation numbers continue to rise,<br />
and talks of a recession are becoming<br />
much more common. I am sure you<br />
are feeling it everywhere…at the gas<br />
pump, grocery stores, retail shopping,<br />
etc. We know that housing plays a<br />
big part in our economy so let’s jump<br />
right into the statistics for our region.<br />
The median home price in Southwest<br />
Riverside County held steady<br />
from a month ago ($600,000), was up<br />
13% from a year ago ($530,000), and<br />
up an impressive 44.6% from 2 years<br />
ago ($415,000). Unsold inventory is<br />
still hovering just over 2 months (6<br />
months is considered a healthy market),<br />
and days on market increased<br />
again from last month to 8 days, up<br />
from 5 days last year but still significantly<br />
lower compared to 18 days 2<br />
years ago. Unit sales dipped 4% from the<br />
previous month and 3% from last year.<br />
Unsold inventory saw another increase<br />
of 24% from last month and is up an incredible<br />
88% from last year. However, I<br />
must remind you once again that we are<br />
nowhere close to the inventory levels we<br />
need to be. Median prices are up in all of<br />
our local cities, ranging in an increase of<br />
1.9%-25.5% Year-Over-Year.<br />
While we are still seeing solid<br />
numbers across the region, things are<br />
definitely cooling off. Many of our cities<br />
saw a dip in median sales price from<br />
last month, but all are still showing an<br />
increase year over year. Additionally,<br />
the closed sales price is just over 2.25%<br />
higher than the list price in the region as a<br />
whole. We expected to see some cooling,<br />
so I wouldn’t be alarmed. Our shortage<br />
of inventory will still keep demand alive,<br />
which in turn keeps prices up.<br />
I have mentioned before that we have<br />
some supply help on the way. We hosted<br />
a City Managers breakfast for Hemet,<br />
San Jacinto, Perris, Moreno Valley, and<br />
Beaumont last month, and I am happy to<br />
report that those cities have over 14,000<br />
units either approved for construction or<br />
already under construction. Additionally,<br />
Lake Elsinore has over 20,000 units in the<br />
entitlement plan, as presented to a local<br />
group of business leaders last week. All<br />
of our cities understand the need for more<br />
housing, and developments remain strong<br />
throughout the region.<br />
On the Legislative Front, we had<br />
another big win defeating AB 2050 (Lee<br />
and Carrillo) which would have forced<br />
property owners to stay in the rental business<br />
for at least 5 years before seeking<br />
to use the Ellis Act to go out of business.<br />
Another example of an overreach by Sacramento,<br />
which does nothing to help with<br />
increasing supply. Crossover, the date<br />
when Bills must pass out of their house<br />
of origin, has passed. As a result, some<br />
Bills that we have been monitoring have<br />
died. We continue to monitor close to 50<br />
Bills that have some effect on housing in<br />
the State.<br />
Things aren’t slowing down, and the<br />
next few months will definitely keep me<br />
on my toes.<br />
If you’d like a copy of my entire<br />
report including the mentioned slides, or<br />
to be added to the distribution list, please<br />
email me at Adam@srcar.org.<br />
As always, I am available if you have<br />
any questions about the report. Until next<br />
month…<br />

COMMUNICATING LEADERSHIP<br />
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1<br />
There may be an agenda that includes<br />
career planning, understanding perceptions<br />
of the job and a time for answering<br />
questions about the business. In this<br />
case communication is a two-way street<br />
so listen to your employees and show<br />
empathy for issue they may be facing.<br />
Taking this time is an excellent way of<br />
growing your interpersonal skills, one<br />
of the key building blocks of Emotional<br />
Intelligence.<br />
To reach both employees and customers<br />
use one or two of the wide variety<br />
of social media tools available. For<br />
example, list your company on LinkedIn<br />
and send out invites to follow. Then post<br />
regular communications of what’s going<br />
on with the company. It’s an easy and<br />
fast method to get the word out. Private<br />
Facebook chats can also be set-up and<br />
very useful for a more local visibility.<br />
Many companies are using these groups<br />
and allowing by invitation contributors<br />
to join in the discussion. You in-turn can<br />
share availability of new products and<br />
specials that may be taking place.<br />
Writing letters is another means of<br />
communication. In very large companies<br />
where building relationships with<br />
everyone is difficult, a regularly delivered<br />
newsletter, bulletin or some other<br />
creative name will show good leadership.<br />
What is important is that the message is<br />
written clearly and to the point to not lose<br />
the reader after a few sentences. What<br />
is shared needs to be applicable to the<br />
reader and answer the question, “what’s<br />
in it for me”? Most important, write<br />
the letter yourself. Employees know if<br />
a “professional” writer has created the<br />
communication in which case its relational<br />
aspect has been lost.<br />
Other methods that may be obvious<br />
but easily forgotten. Meetings that may<br />
include a single team, organization or the<br />
entire company can be schedule regularly.<br />
Informal online chats can be used to<br />
allow the asking of questions. Be sure<br />
to prepare in advance to make it a good<br />
use of time.<br />
Whatever communication works<br />
best, be present, be real and connect to<br />
show what a great leader you are.<br />
