San Mateo first-time
home buyer program
gives needed boost
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When San Mateo resident Michael
Romeyn was looking for a home where he
could raise his children more than 15 years
ago, there didn’t seem to be a lot of
options for the recently-divorced father of
six.
Having depleted most of his finances
during his divorce, Romeyn had been liv-
ing in rented rooms for a few months at a
time while taking care of three minor chil-
dren when he learned of San Mateo’s First-
time Home Buyer Program. With the help
of the program assisting those at a variety
of income levels obtain a loan to purchase
their first home, Romeyn moved into a
condominium on West Third Avenue in
2005 after three years on the program’s
wait list.
Acknowledging it would have taken him
several more years to save enough money
to purchase his own home, Romeyn cred-
ited the program with making what had
been a dim prospect of owning his own

Former FlightCar property up for redevelopment
Millbrae officials consider plans to rebuild parking lot into mixed-use housing
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The land formerly occupied by a defunct
airport ride sharing company in Millbrae is
slated for redevelopment, as officials will
weigh a proposal to rebuild the former
FlightCar parking lot into a residential
development.
The Millbrae City Council will weigh
Tuesday, April 23, a proposal to construct a
eight units in the upper stories of a four-
story building of which the lower two
floors will be mostly office and commercial
space.
The 480 El Camino Real development
would demolish and replace the former
parking lot used by FlightCar, which years
ago was the source of headaches for offi-
cials who grappled with community frustra-
tions regarding the company.
Since the former company left Millbrae
in 2014 searching for a more favorable
business community, the parking lot at the
corner of El Camino Real and Hermosa
Avenue has laid largely vacant, until the
redevelopment proposal arrived.
According to plans, the project’s first
floor would hold a lobby, 13 parking
spaces and 640 square feet of commercial
space, under a second story reserved for
1,200 square feet of office space and two
two-bedroom units. The top two floors
would both accommodate three two-bed-
room units, each approximately 1, 300
square feet.
The residential units are proposed to be
marketed as condominiums.
While the proposal aims to redevelop a
previous cause for consternation among
officials as the previous use had a slew of
ongoing issues, the new use also raised
fears among some officials and residents
concerned about limited parking and inva-
sion of privacy.
LOCAL
During previous community meetings
and public hearings, some residents raised
frustrations with the project’s design, sug-
gesting it will harm their quality of life by
compounding existing parking problems
and other issues. The developer is seeking
to offer six fewer parking spaces than the
amount typically required for a similar proj-
ect.
Planning commissioners examining the
project late last year acknowledged the
parking concerns, but suggested they were
comfortable with the amount of spaces
included in the plans. At least a space will
be offered to each resident, though there
may be some parking limitations for the
commercial and office spaces.
To mitigate concerns that the develop-
ment would impede on the privacy of a
nearby residential development on
Hermosa Avenue, officials instructed the
developer to extend the fence to limit visi-
bility between the two properties.
Officials also helped rework the configu-
ration of the commercial space to enhance
the room and make it more easily accessi-
ble.
Considering the design amendments
alongside the development’s proposed cen-
tral location, city officials think the proj-
ect would be a community asset if con-
structed, according to a city report.
“The site is physically suitable for the
proposed density because the site is level
and stable, it is located within one-half
mile of the Millbrae BART station which
would provide good access to public transit
and it is adjacent to a commercial area to
provide goods and services to future resi-
dents,” according to the report.
Such a rosy perspective from city offi-
cials is largely a departure from the site’s
previous user, which allowed residents to
rent their cars to those coming from San
Francisco International Airport.
FlightCar’s time in Millbrae was tumul-
tuous and city officials pulled the compa-
ny’s conditional-use permit because of
reported issues including three rentals
being stolen. Other issues included unap-
proved electrical generator use, fire hazards
and not maintaining the landscape.
Lawsuits on both sides followed the revoca-
tion.
Ultimately, FlightCar moved to South
San Francisco, where it operated until it
shuttered in 2016. The company, which had
raised millions in venture capital from
notable names such as Ryan Seacrest and
Ashton Kutcher, closed its 12 locations
near airports and sold its technology to

California may boost rules for homes at high wildfire risk
By Don Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — Years of increasingly
deadly California wildfires spurred lawmak-
ers to consider regulations Tuesday that
would toughen local governments’ require-
ments for approving housing developments
in high-risk areas.
Developers would have to increase fire pro-
tections, plan for evacuations, or prepare for
residents who may need to ride out fires in
safe areas, under legislation expected to
advance from a Senate committee. Local gov-
ernments would also be required to try to
make existing structures less likely to burn.

Condo owners and renters along San Francisco’s waterfront are protesting plans for a new homeless shelter.
Shelter uproar highlights strife in SF
By Janie Har
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — San
Francisco’s renowned waterfront
hosts joggers, admiring tourists and
towering condos with impressive
views. It could also become the site of
a new homeless shelter for up to 200
people.
Angry residents have packed public
meetings, jeering at city officials and
even shouting down Mayor London
Breed over the proposal. They say
they were blindsided and argue billion-
aire Twitter executive Jack Dorsey and
other tech executives who support the
idea should lobby city officials to
build a shelter by their homes.
The waterfront uproar is among
recent examples of strife in an expen-
sive city that is both overwhelmed by
tech wealth and passionate about
social justice. San Francisco compa-
nies Pinterest and Lyft recently went
public, and Uber and Slack are coming
soon, driving fears that newly minted
millionaires will snap up the few fami-

California Senate OKs
ban on hairstyle discrimination
SACRAMENTO — California could become one of the first
states to outlaw racial discrimination because of hairstyles
— such as braids and dreadlocks — in a move aimed at chal-
lenging long-held standards of professionalism in the work-
place.
The California Senate voted 37-0 on Monday to approve a
bill that would update the state’s anti-discrimination law so
that the term “race” includes “traits historically associated
with race.”
Federal and state laws ban discrimination based on reli-
gious hairstyles and head coverings. But federal courts have
not extended those protections more broadly because of race,
ruling that because hairstyle was a choice, companies could
require workers to follow certain standards as a condition of
employment.

Medicare, Social Security face shaky fiscal futures
By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The financial condition
of the government’s bedrock retirement
programs for middle- and working-class
Americans remains shaky, with Medicare
pointed toward insolvency by 2026,
according to a report Monday by the gov-
ernment’s overseers of Medicare and Social

It paints a sobering picture of the pro-

Both programs will need to eventually be
addressed to avert automatic cuts should
their trust funds run dry. Neither President
Donald Trump nor Capitol Hill’s warring

Nancy Pelosi urged divided Democrats

prospect of any impeachment proceed-
ings.
Nadler and the other chairmen made
clear they believe Trump did obstruct
justice, according to people on the call.
McGahn would be a star witness for any
such case because he refused Trump’s
demand to set Mueller’s firing in
motion, according to the report.
“The Special Counsel’s report, even
in redacted form, outlines substantial
evidence that President Trump engaged
in obstruction and other abuses,” Nadler
said in a statement released as the con-
ference call got underway. “It now falls
to Congress to determine for itself the
full scope of the misconduct and to
decide what steps to take in the exercise
of our duties of oversight, legislation
and constitutional accountability.”

Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, the top

pointed out that McGahn sat for 30
hours of interviews with Mueller and
said Nadler was asking for some items
that he knows cannot be produced.
Trump himself insisted he wasn’t wor-
ried.
“Not even a little bit,” he said when
asked Monday whether he was con-
cerned about impeachment. However,
his many tweets seeking to undermine
the report’s credibility indicate he is
hardly shrugging it aside.
“Only high crimes and misdemeanors
can lead to impeachment,” he said
Monday on Twitter. “There were no
crimes by me (No Collusion, No
Obstruction), so you can’t impeach. It
was the Democrats that committed the
crimes, not your Republican President!”

California considers plan
to encourage marijuana banking
LOS ANGELES — California legislators considered a plan
Monday intended to encourage more banks to do business
with marijuana companies that have been frozen out of thou-
sands of financial institutions.
Most Americans live in states where marijuana is legally
available in some form. But most financial institutions
don’t want anything to do with money from the cannabis
industry for fear it could expose them to legal trouble since
the federal government still considers marijuana illegal.
The conflict between state and federal law has left busi-
nesses in California’s emerging legal pot industry in a legal
dilemma, shutting many out of everyday services such as
opening a bank account or obtaining a credit card. It also
has forced many businesses to operate only in cash —
sometimes vast amounts — making them ripe targets for
crime.
An Assembly bill would authorize state regulators to share
detailed sales, cultivation and shipping information collect-
ed from cannabis companies with banks, a step supporters
hope will provide additional assurances to financial institu-
tions that a pot shop or grower is operating within the law.
During the Obama administration, the Justice Department
issued guidelines to help banks avoid federal prosecution
when dealing with pot businesses in states where the drug is
legal.
But most banks don’t see those rules as a shield against
charges that could include aiding drug trafficking. And they
say the rules are difficult to follow, in effect placing the bur-
den on banks to determine if a pot business is complying
with all legal rules.
Cara Martinson of the California State Association of
Counties told members of an Assembly committee that the
bill represented an incremental step until a solution is
reached at the federal level.
Oldest southern sea otter
in captivity dies in California
LONG BEACH — Charlie, the oldest southern sea otter
held by any zoo or aquarium, has died in California.
The Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach says Charlie
died Monday at the age of 22.
Male southern sea otters typically only live 10 to 14
years in the wild.
Charlie celebrated his birthday last month by eating col-
orful seafood cupcakes.
Charlie helped sea otters by taking part in a study on how
the animals perceive sound.
The aquarium lost another otter in January. Brook, a
female, was 21 when she died of congestive heart failure.
California’s sea otters are considered threatened. Hunting
in the 18th and 19th centuries nearly wiped them out.
Conservation efforts have brought the population to
about 3,000 but otters still face threats such as pollution and
habitat loss.

Appeals court rejects Chelsea

Since her incarceration, criminal charges against

because Assange has already been charged.

A family of Central American migrants is detained by federal police during a raid on their journey toward the United States.
Mexican police detain hundreds
of Central American migrants
By Sonia Perez D.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PIJIJIAPAN, Mexico — Mexican
police and immigration agents detained
hundreds of Central American migrants
Monday in the largest single raid on a
migrant caravan since the groups start-
ed moving through the country last
year.
Police targeted isolated groups at the
tail end of a caravan of about 3,000
migrants who were making their way
through the southern state of Chiapas
with hopes of reaching the U.S. border.
As migrants gathered under spots of
shade in the burning heat outside the
city of Pijijiapan, federal police and
agents passed by in patrol trucks and
vans and forcibly wrestled women, men
and children into the vehicles.
The migrants were driven to buses,
presumably for subsequent transporta-
tion to an immigration station for
deportation processing. As many as
500 migrants might have been picked
up in the raid, according to Associated
Press journalists at the scene.
Some of the women and children
wailed and screamed during the deten-
tions on the roadside. Clothes, shoes,
suitcases and strollers littered the scene
after they were taken away.
Kevin Escobar, a 27-year-old from
Honduras, was one of about 500
migrants who fled onto private property
to avoid immigration agents. Sitting on
the property, he yelled to them: “Why
do you want to arrest me?”
Escobar vowed that he will never
return to his hometown of San Pedro
Sula, saying “the gangs are kidnapping
everyone back there.”
Agents had encouraged groups of
migrants that separated from the bulk of
the caravan to rest after some seven
hours on the road, including about half
of that under a broiling sun. When the
migrants regrouped to continue, they
were detained.
Agents positioned themselves at the
head of the group and at the back. Some
people in civilian clothing appeared to
be participating in the detentions.
After seeing what happened, some
migrants began walking in dense group-
ings and picked up stones and sticks.
Officials from the National Human
Rights Commission observed the
action from a distance.
“We are documenting what is happen-
ing,” said Jesus Salvador Quintana, a
commission official. “We cannot tell
authorities in charge what to do, but
yes, we are documenting and we will
investigate.”
Mexico welcomed the first caravans
last year, but the reception has gotten
colder since tens of thousands of
migrants overwhelmed U.S. border
crossings, causing delays at the border
and anger among Mexican residents.
Last Friday, local media reported a
series of detentions of migrants in near-
by Mapastepec, where thousands were
awaiting normalization of their migra-
tory status.
Mexico’s National Migration
Institute did not immediately respond to
requests for comment. The National
Human Rights Commission said it had
interviewed more than 200 people
detained in Mapastepec.
The detentions came as the U.S. has
ramped up public pressure on Mexico to
do more to stop the flow of migrants.
President Donald Trump railed against
the government of his Mexican counter-
part, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, and
threatened to shut the entire border
down, but then quickly congratulated
Mexico for migrant arrests just a few
weeks ago.

Fast-forward to 1895 San Mateo,
where “village” was an apt descrip-
tion for downtown. A man named
Jerome Hamilton was fascinated with
the Native Americans who lived in the
area previously and spent much of his
time searching for “ancient Indian
Shell Mounds” along the Bay. He
found his first shell mound in San
Mateo County in 1889. In 1936, he
compiled a report called “Indian Shell
Mounds of San Mateo Creek and
Vicinity,” which detailed all he had
discovered, heard and recorded about
prehistoric sites. Hamilton mapped
and described 31 shell mounds in San
(mounds) near the old wooden bridge
that crossed San Mateo Creek at B
Street and Baldwin Avenue.” (Holman

right where the Trag’s site is about to
undergo redevelopment, including

During the planning stages of this

deemed archaeologically sensitive
based on studies over the years. In
July 2018, the San Mateo Planning
Division engaged the services of
Holman & Associates to determine if
archaeological resources existed on,
around or under the site. Their work
included research into historical
resources records, historic maps and

pletely covered by asphalt, concrete
and structures, H&A recommended
subsurface testing using geoprobes.
Eight geoprobes were completed 8
feet below the surface, and six of
those eight found prehistoric and his-
torical archaeological resources and
potential cultural deposits, some of it
intact and some of it disturbed or dis-
placed over the course of over 100
years of development. The area below
the building was not able to be tested.
There is little doubt in my mind that
once demolition and excavation
begins on the site, historical
resources will be uncovered. I find that
very exciting!
As with any large development, the
project is subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act, which
identifies significant environmental
impacts and requires they be avoided
or mitigated. Under the conditions of
approval, some of the mitigation
requirements include training for con-
struction supervisors and workers on
archaeological and tribal cultural
resources sensitivity and archaeologi-
cal monitoring. If resources are found,
the developer will be responsible for
halting construction activities so
they may be addressed.
The 303 Baldwin Ave. development
will be a benefit to San Mateo’s down-
town. It is a true multi-faceted build-
ing, with office space, condos and
retail. I do, however, hope they find
some historic treasures below the sur-
face and that we have the opportunity
to honor those people who inhabited
our city before it became what it is
today and learn more about them and
their lives.

The imbalance
of jobs/housing
T
o the reader, today’s column is the second of two
pieces on one topic written for the Daily Journal.
The first appeared in the April 9, 2019, edition and
was titled, “History of the housing crisis.” In the previous
column, I put California’s current housing crisis into the
context of our state’s history to demonstrate that the prob-
lem we face today is not new. It has existed before.
After offering a brief historical perspective, I then added
my own personal experience from when I moved to the Bay
Area until the time I ran for San Carlos City Council. My
experience was that housing was plentiful, diverse and
affordable. However, upon running for council, I was told
that we had a “housing crisis.” The focus then was on teach-
ers, police and firefighters who, it was said, could not afford
to live in the communities where
they worked.
The previous column received a
number of comments, one of
which I would like to address. A
writer suggested that, as a coun-
cilmember, I “endorsed programs
of new housing for the city,
adding to its population.”
Anyone who knows my record on
the council knows this is not
true. When I ran for office in
2001, there was talk of develop-
ing Wheeler Plaza and the
Caltrain site along El Camino Matt Grocott
Real. I was opposed to both then
and remained opposed throughout my tenure. Later, when
the idea to build housing on the parking lot next to
Bianchini’s was proposed, I argued against it because it was
like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
Building housing wherever we think we can find room on
an already crowded Peninsula is not the answer. In the close
of my previous column, I noted that professional planners
have said for decades, what we are facing is a “jobs/housing
imbalance.” This is in fact true but I would argue that to look
at only one side of the balance is to error. If we cannot keep
up with housing needs as circumstances exist today, then
why are we building more and more to accommodate more
commercial space?
If one were to look at only the plans of three major
employers in the area, including Stanford University,
Facebook and Google, they are calling for an additional 6.5
million square feet of new building, most of which is office
and would account for nearly 22,000 new positions, both
for students and employees. Those “new positions” equate
to new residents arriving on the Peninsula, all of whom
would be looking for a place to live. That number of people
is the same as squeezing onto the Peninsula a new city the
size of Millbrae.
Aside from the three employers cited above, other compa-
nies would be invited to either expand their operations or
move into the area with additional buildings being drawn up
by various developers. Together these projects include an
additional 3.7 million square feet of office space, equating to
14,700 new jobs. Similar to what I wrote above, this would
be like inviting a city slightly larger than Mill Valley to
relocate somewhere on the Peninsula.
Is this what passes for planning? Is this what is needed to
have a healthy economy on the Peninsula? When does it all
come to a grinding halt because of traffic congestion? When
does the quality of life become so reduced that families with
a long history in the area pack up and leave? When does it
become apparent that our infrastructure for transportation,
water, power, sewage and garbage cannot handle the increase
and our capability to build or reconstruct for new capacity is
either impractical or hugely unaffordable?
When California faced housing shortages in the past, vir-
tually none of these tangent issues existed, sans the water
issue. There was always room for more. Today, however, cir-
cumstances are more complex and planning must be more
sophisticated than it has been. It also must be more strictly
enforced. Too often developers are allowed to come in with
alternative uses for what was zoned per a city’s general plan
and too often mitigation measures are allowed to purported-
ly reduce the negative environmental impacts. It is also past
time for citizens to give keener attention to what their state
and local officials are doing and planning.
To wit, I would like to echo the plea of Dave Simpson of
Redwood City, who wrote to this paper on April 16, 2019.
His concern was the proposed demolition of the Cow Palace
in Daly City per Senate Bill 281, authored by state Sen.
Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco. The legislation, if passed,
would pave the way for housing to be built where now
stands the historic and iconic facility, unique in character
and use on the Peninsula. Please visit
savethecowpalace.com and join the fight to save this struc-
ture.

mayor, Matt Grocott has been involved in political policy

Indexes end mostly lower after listless day
By Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Wall Street capped a day of mostly side-
ways trading Monday with a slight gain for
the benchmark S&P 500 index, as a spike in
crude oil prices sent energy companies
broadly higher.
Energy sector stocks climbed as the price
of crude oil hit its highest level since
October after the U.S. government moved to
further block Iranian oil exports.
Even with the surge in energy stocks,
losses in banks, real estate companies and
elsewhere in the market led to a mostly
lower finish for the major U.S. indexes.
Smaller company stocks fell more than the
rest of the market.
Homebuilders slumped following a report
showing that sales of previously owned
U.S. homes fell in March.
Monday’s listless day of trading was in
line with a relatively calm stretch for the
U.S. stock market in recent weeks. The mar-
ket has been hovering near all-time highs
after following up a nearly 20% plummet
late last year with a nearly mirror-opposite
rebound.
Investors are focused on a cavalcade of
corporate earnings reports later this week
and new data that will give them a read on
how much U.S. economic growth slowed
during the first three months of the year.
“This week is a crucial week for the mar-
ket,” said Quincy Krosby, chief market
strategist at Prudential Financial.
“(Investors) want to hear what these compa-
nies are saying in terms of their guidance,
and that’s going to be crucial to see if this
market can continue to inch higher.”
The S&P 500 wavered between gains and
losses for much of the day before eking out
a gain of 2. 94 points, or 0. 1%, to
2,907.97. The index, which had briefly
been down as much as 0.3%, is now within
Samsung delays folding phone
launch after breaking issues
SAN FRANCISCO — Samsung is pushing
back this week’s planned public launch of
its highly anticipated, $2000 folding
phone after reports that reviewers’ phones
were breaking.
The company had been planning to
release the Galaxy Fold on Friday, but
instead it will now run more tests and
announce a new launch date in the “coming
weeks.”
The delay is a setback for Samsung and for
the smartphone market generally, which had
been pinning some hopes on the folding
phone to catalyze innovation in the indus-
try. The Galaxy Fold, with its $1,980 price
tag, was not intended to be a mass market
hit, but many hoped it would hint at a new
wave of smartphone advances — an area that
has been lagging in recent years.
But device reviewers quickly found issue
with the Galaxy Fold, which is about the
size of an average smartphone when folded,
and the size of a small tablet when its two
sides are pulled apart.
Several journalists reported the inside
screens flickering, freezing and finally
dying on their test units within the first cou-
ple days. Two reviewers mistakenly

Bond prices fell. The yield on the 10 year

Energy futures closed broadly higher.
Benchmark U.S. crude surged 2.7% to settle

Microsoft workers join China’s
debate over grueling workweek
SAN FRANCISCO — Tech workers in
China protesting a corporate culture of gru-
eling work schedules are getting some sup-
port from their U.S. peers.
A fast-growing campaign started by
Chinese software developers on the code-
sharing platform GitHub has contributed to
a public debate over work-life balance in
China’s tech industry.
It’s known as 996. ICU, referring to
expectations that young people work 12-

financial success — and the idea that fol-
lowing such an illegal workweek can land
them in an intensive care unit.
A group of tech workers at Microsoft,
which owns GitHub, distributed an open let-
ter Monday that urges the company to pro-
tect the widely shared GitHub page from cen-
sorship.

pitching 159 of them. This year, Hager has

75.2 of San Mateo’s 89.1 innings. Shih has
worked the other 13.2 innings.

Last season, San Mateo was in a similar

Piscotty’s 3 RBIs help is sued for sexual assault

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — The A’s found their
winning formula again: Grab an
early lead, the starters keep them in
the game, and then allow the deep
bullpen to handle the rest.
Stephen Piscotty homered and
drove in three
runs to back

“Piscotty is
absurd defensively some days and
he’s absurd offensively some days
and it’s like not so much if he’s
going to step up, it’s going to be
how,” Bassitt said. “We have a team
here, the starters just give this team
a chance and we have really good
odds to win.”
Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus
left in the seventh inning as a pre-
caution after being hit by a pitch in
the first and bruising his right hand.
X-rays were negative.
“Just a hand contusion that was
swelling up late in the game,” man-
ager Chris Woodward said. “It was
hard for him to hold the bat. It was
going to be difficult to have an at-bat
at that point.”
Bassitt (1-0), called up from
Triple-A Las Vegas last week and as
healthy as he has been since before
Tommy John surgery three years
ago, struck out seven and walked four
over five innings while regularly
working out of trouble. He allowed
two hits and has won his last three
decisions dating to last season.
Matt Chapman added a sacrifice fly
in the third as the A’s built on their
lead after Piscotty’s solo drive in the
second. Pisctotty added a sacrifice
fly and RBI single — and his 15-
game hitting streak against the
Rangers matches Geronimo Berroa
in 1995-96 for the longest against
Texas in A’s history.

24th on baseball’s career list.
“Fernando Rodney broke Cy
Young’s record, pretty cool stuff,”
manager Bob Melvin said.
Oakland bounced back from a
weekend sweep at home by the Blue
Jays.
The Rangers couldn’t capitalize on
their chances for Mike Minor (2-2),
who gave up four runs and four hits,
struck out four and walked three in
six innings.
Texas had won two in a row.
The Rangers stranded baserunners
in the first, second, fourth, fifth and
sixth innings before pinch-hitter
Patrick Wisdom’s RBI double in the
seventh.
Announced attendance was a dis-
mal 8,073 — Oakland’s lowest

Eco-concious anthem
Former A’s left-hander Barry Zito,
the 2002 AL Cy Young Award winner,
sang the national anthem acapella
from a broadcast booth after asking
everyone in the ballpark to join in
on a night much of the power —
mics, LED signage, speakers and
video screen — was briefly turned off
to bring awareness to saving energy.
Zito is now a musician living in
Nashville with his wife and two
sons. A native Californian, Zito has
teamed with Energy Upgrade
California to do his part to be envi-
ronmentally conscious. He now has
a land line at home and turns off his
cell phone at night.
“You hear about energy conserva-
tion but when you look at the sheer
numbers of what’s going on and how
many millions of people live in
California, if we’re just doing little
things like changing a couple light
bulbs to LEDs or changing the filters
on your HVAC vents, which I’m just
learning how to do now as a man of
the house every couple months, it
just cuts down,” Zito said.

LOS ANGELES —
Sacramento Kings coach Luke
New
Walton has been accused of sexual
assault in a lawsuit by a former
sports reporter.
Kelli Tennant filed the suit in Los
Angeles County Superior Court on
Monday alleging that Walton
assaulted her in a hotel room in
Santa Monica during his time as an
assistant coach for the Golden
State Warriors. TMZ first reported
the lawsuit.
According to the suit, Tennant
considered Walton to be a friend
and mentor and was also friendly
with his wife before the incident
that occurred when she tried to
deliver him a copy of her book that

Mullin’s ‘straight from the heart and gut’ decision
By Doug Feinberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Chris Mullin felt
in his heart it was time to leave St.
John’s.
He stepped down this month
after four years as coach at the
school where he starred in the
1980s.
“It got to a certain point for me
to do something different,” Mullin
told The Associated Press on
Monday. “Straight from the heart
and gut, when you do it that way
it’s natural. It wasn’t anything but
that. I’m excited to do some differ-
ent things.”
Mullin had two years remaining
on his contract. At the time he
resigned, he mentioned a “recent
personal loss. ” Older brother
Roddy died in March after battling
cancer for years.
The 55-year-old coach was com-
ing off his first winning season
and only trip to the NCAA
Tournament, an accomplishment
he described as a “lifetime memo-
ry.” The Red Storm lost to Arizona
State in a First Four game last
month.

She said she yelled “Stop!” but
Walton used his full body weight to
keep her on the bed, where he
groped her and forcibly kissed her.
She said he laughed as she asked
him to stop.
Tennant said Walton finally
relented and she started to leave the
room when he grabbed her again
and kissed her ears and neck. She

Chris Mullin stepped down as St. John’s head coach earlier this month.
“I think it’s all about timing. I
had four great years,” Mullin said.
“It was time to do something dif-
ferent. It’s a lot of work, it’s time
consuming. We grew each year.
Last year we had incredible success
from where we came from. We had
steady progress each year, which
was hard to do.”

Tennant said she confided with
people at the time of the alleged
attack but never filed charges. She
said Walton continued to harass her
after he became coach of the Lakers
and she was working as a broad-
caster in Los Angeles for Spectrum
SportsNet and SportsNet LA.
The Warriors and Lakers said they
both first heard of the allegations
after TMZ reported the lawsuit on
Monday night and had no further
comment. Walton was an assistant
with Golden State from 2014-16
before being hired as Lakers head
coach.
Walton was dismissed by the
Lakers earlier this month and hired
by the Kings.
The Kings say they are aware of

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DALLAS — John Klingberg
scored from the left circle 17:02
into overtime and the Dallas Stars
beat the Nashville Predators 2-1 on
Monday night to wrap up their
first-round Western Conference
playoff series in six games.
Klingberg’s first goal of the
playoffs came on a cross-ice pass
from Alexander Radulov.
The win by the Stars came 11
years after the previous time they
clinched a playoff series on home
ice. They needed overtime for a 2-1
win in that Game 6 as well — four
overtimes to beat San Jose in the
second round of the 2008 playoffs.
The Stars will play St. Louis in
the second round of these playoffs,
just as they did in their previous
postseason appearance three years
ago. The Blues, who have home-ice
advantage this time, won that 2016
series with a Game 7 win in Dallas.
Ben Bishop, Vezina Trophy
finalist, had a playoff career-high
47 saves for the Stars.
Pekka Rinne, who won the
Vezina Trophy last year as the
NHL’s top goalie, also set a playoff
career best by stopping 49 shots.
That included an impressive pad
save on Jamie Benn’s shot just
more than five minutes into the
overtime period, when the Stars had
a 14-8 advantage on shots.
Blake Comeau scored his first
playoff goal for the Stars, tying the
game at 1-1 in the second period.
But he also had a tripping penalty
with 1:53 left in regulation that put
Nashville on the power play.
But the Predators didn’t even get

Sharks had been the dominant
team in a 5-2 victory in Game 1
and were tied at 3 in the second
game. The Golden Knights scored
the tiebreaking goal on a power
play shortly after he left, starting
a stretch where they outscored San
Jose 13-3 in two-plus games to
take a 3-1 series lead.
San Jose seemed to have no
answer for Vegas’ line of Paul
Stastny, Mark Stone and Max
Pacioretty, who combined for 28
points in the first four games of
the series.
That trio hasn’t recorded a single
point the past two games, with

defending them.

Vegas has given up 44 power-play
Vlasic almost always does just
that, whether with the Sharks or
on the Canadian national team.
When San Jose went on a run to
the Stanley Cup Final three years
ago, it was Vlasic’s play against
big scorers like Los Angeles’ Tyler
Toffoli, Nashville’s Filip
Forsberg and St. Louis’ Vladimir
Tarasenko that was a big reason
why.
Those three potent forwards
combined for one goal, one assist
and a minus-18 rating against the
Sharks in the 2016 playoffs with
Vlasic and Justin Braun doing
most of the work.
“He doesn’t get outside him-
self,” Braun said. “He’s always in
the right position, great stick,
knocking down pucks left and
right. It’s just the consistency
from him. He’s back to his old
ways of shutting them down.
That’s been huge.”
Vlasic broke up a three-on-one
late in the second period of Sunday
night’s 2-1 double-overtime win
and then made the long pass that
sent Tomas Hertl in for the game-
goals, killing 80.9 percent of
opponent chances.
To p perfo rmers : Joe Pavelski
leads the Sharks with 38 goals,
adding 26 assists and totaling 64
points. Tomas Hertl has five goals
and six assists over the last 10

winning short-handed goal in

It was just the typical perform-
ance his teammates expect from a
player who is sometimes over-
shadowed on a team that includes
two former Norris Trophy winners
as the league’s top defensemen in
the more offensively minded Brent
Burns and Erik Karlsson.
“That’s Steady Eddie. Just does
everything well. Good skater,
good stick, breaks up plays, smart
with the puck. This is the Picks
who has been here 12 or 13 years
now,” forward Logan Couture said,
referring to Vlasic’s nickname of
Pickles.
“He’s not flashy. A lot of people
think the best d-men in the world
are the offensive guys who are
flashy and score the highlight-reel
goals and stuff like that. Picks is a
solid defenseman. He does get up
in the rush sometimes. But he’s
more of the guy who will defend
hard and make it hard for the other
team to score.”

PAPIN
Continued from page 11
Papin previously coached at
Gunderson, his first head coaching
position, after serving as offen-
sive coordinator for the San Jose
SaberCats of the Arena Football
League in 2011.
He also worked as a defensive
coordinator in the Arena League
CROWN

and I got mad when he beat me,”
Bologna said. “And (now) if he
does beat me I’m not really going
to care. But I’m definitely going
to hear about it.”
The two have known each other
for most of their lives. Bologna
grew up playing with
Brandenburg’s older brother Tyler
since Little League. Bologna and
Brandenburg, however, wouldn’t
play together until their days at
Carlmont.
While Bellinger and Yelich were
busy trading big league blasts in
Milwaukee over the weekend,
Brandenburg and Bologna were
enjoying some fairly significant
offensive exploits of their own.
And after Brandenburg hit his 12th
homer of the year at Cañada in an
11-6 win over Contra Costa
with each the San Diego Riptide
and the Tri-City Fever.
As a player, he spent five years
with the SaberCats as an offensive
specialist, and played two more sea-
sons between the New York Dragons
and San Diego. He totaled 15,413
all-purpose yards in his career.
A San Jose native, Papin, now
47, graduated from Piedmont Hills
High School. He went on to play at
Portland State University, where
he finished third in the voting for
NCAA Division II Harlon Hill
Trophy as a senior.
College, he texted Bologna after
the game with an update on the
home run count.
“It’s great,” Brandenburg said.
“We definitely support each other
and root for each other. It’s defi-
nitely a friendly competition with
us. But we like to take a few pokes
at each other.”
Even though Bologna is trailing
in the home run race, his game
Saturday for San Joaquin Delta
gives him some serious bragging
rights. Delta traveled to Cosumnes
River and promptly fell behind
11-4 after three innings. While
Bologna didn’t homer, he did go 2
for 4 with a double and an RBI, and
helped Delta rally back with three
runs in the fourth, seven in the
sixth, 11 in the seventh and eight
in the eighth for — yes, this was
baseball, not football — a 33-16

San Mateo High School has

school ball at Palo Alto High
School under Peter Diepenbrock.
“We’re excited about a full sum-

Scheller said. “He applied last
year when we got caught in a situ-

who was much more “plug and

Petiti, more or less, did a favor
for San Mateo, who was in desper-
ate need of a seasoned head coach.
“[Petiti] saved us,” Scheller
said. “We were really lucky he was
available. Drew did an outstand-
ing job but driving up from
Sunnyvale (where he lived and
taught) was too much.”
Scheller said Gould lives and
works in San Mateo.
Scheller was pleased to see
Gould’s name pop up in the

a new coaching search last

Study: Genetic test predicts middle-aged obesity risk
By Malcolm Ritter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Can a genetic test identify newborns at
risk of becoming severely obese by middle age?
Researchers say they have come up with one, and that it
might allow interventions in childhood to avoid that fate.
The test examines more than 2 million spots in a person’s
genetic code, seeking variants that individually nudge a per-
son’s obesity risk up by a tiny amount. The researchers drew
on previously published data about those variants to create
a risk score.
A high score didn’t guarantee obesity, nor a low score rule
it out. But middle-aged people with scores in the top 10 per-
cent were 25 times as likely to be severely obese as those in
the bottom 10 percent, scientists reported in a paper
released Thursday by the journal Cell.
Those two groups were separated by an average weight
difference of about 29 pounds (13 kilograms), researchers
said.
Analysis showed the genetic propensity to obesity began
having an effect on weight around age 3. Up to about age 8,
“you might be able to make a difference in the kids who are
born susceptible to obesity,” said one author of the study,
Dr. Sekar Kathiresan of Massachusetts General Hospital in
Boston and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard.
But it will take further research to see whether intervening
would work, Kathiresan said.
The results for middle age came from a study of about
288,000 people. Overall, the risk-score research included
data from more than 300,000 people at various ages. Severe
obesity was defined as a body mass index of 40 or more.
Results show genetic inheritance “plays a large role in
how heavy one gets,” Kathiresan said. The risk score prob-
ably takes about half of a person’s genetic propensity into
account, he said, and it shows similar accuracy in predicting
ordinary obesity, defined as a BMI of 30 or more.
Even if one inherits a propensity for obesity, he said,
“you still have control over your fate. You’re not fated to be
obese, but it’s very clear those individuals who’ve inherited
susceptibility have to work that much harder to keep the
weight off.”
Among study participants with the highest scores, he
noted, 17 percent were of normal weight. Other analyses
show that people who remain lean despite an inherited
propensity for obesity tend to eat better and have more
physical activity than others with a high score who got fat.
“So you can do something about it,” he said.
Ruth Loos, a professor of environmental medicine and
public health who did not participate in the study, said the
risk score explains more of people’s genetic tendency than
previous studies did. But she doubted it would be useful in a
doctor’s office.
It is “never going to be a good predictor,” said Loos, of
the Icahn School of Medicine at Mt. Sinai in New York.
She noted that in one test of the score’s predictive power,
only 58 of the 371 subjects scoring in the top 10 percent
ended up severely obese. And many other severely obese
people didn’t score in the top 10 percent, she said. PHOTO ON VISUALHUNT.COM

change adopted earlier this month in
HEART’s first-time homebuyer program was
also accompanied by an increase in the pro-
gram’s qualifying maximum household
income of $170,000, up from $150,000.
Created in 2008 to help those making a
moderate income purchase their first home,
the program was aimed at giving middle-
income families who don’t qualify for
below-market-rate units a chance to gather
the funds necessary for a down payment on a
Peninsula home, said Boris Vatkin,
HEART’s management analyst.
But with housing prices rising by more
than 20% between 2017 and 2018, HEART
staff increasingly encountered households
such as a two-teacher household making
$160,000. While households like these
weren’t eligible for the program, they also
didn’t make enough to come up with a down
payment on a home in San Mateo County,
said Vatkin. In comparing the number of
homes sold for under $795,187 against
those sold for more than $900,000 in 2018,
HEART found many more homes could be
made available to those seeking assistance
through the loan program if they increased
the maximum home price, he said.
“For people that work in the industry,

future legislation so it’s important to us
from that point of view, ” said
Councilwoman Debbie Ruddock.
Ruddock criticized SB 50 for not doing
enough to encourage the development of
affordable housing.
“One of the things I’m concerned about
LOCAL
they know that a $1 million home a lot of
times here is your starter home,” he said,
adding that many of those homes would
have been sold for some $600,000 two or
three years ago. “We were just trying to
keep up with the meteoric rise of the mar-
ket.”
Vatkin said that in partnership with
Meriwest Mortgage, a wholly owned sub-
sidiary of Meriwest Credit Union, the loan
program has been able to help 87 families
find and purchase their own home since its
inception more than 10 years ago. He said
teachers, nurses, first responders and public
sector workers are among those who have
benefited from the program, which is geared
toward those living or working in San
Mateo County and searching for a single-
family home or condominium within the
county.
While many loan programs require
prospective homeowners to pay a 20% or
10% down payment toward their homes,
HEART’s program allows eligible residents
and workers in San Mateo County to pay as
little as a 5% down, explained Vatkin.
Together with a 30-year, fixed-rate mort-
gage offered by Meriwest Mortgage and a
15-year loan from HEART of up to 15% of
the home purchase price, a homebuyer could
purchase a house by paying a 5% down pay-
ment through the program, he said.
Vatkin said most banks view homebuyers
paying less than a 20% down payment as

produces a lot of housing if implemented
as envisioned, it allows in lieu fees and if
we really want to produce affordable hous-
ing we want the housing built. I have con-
cerns that it doesn’t do enough to provide
for affordable housing in a variety of
ways.”
She also suggested the bill is overly
aggressive in usurping control from cities.
“[The bill] conceivably changes the
character of [local] communities in a rela-
tively short period of time, ” she said,
riskier borrowers and require them to buy a
private mortgage insurance, which protects
the banks in case the homebuyer defaults.
But with the HEART program’s guarantee
behind the second down payment loan the
nonprofit offers, homeowners in HEART’s
loan program are treated the same as those
paying a 20% down payment at the time of
their home purchase, which can save them
the thousands of dollars they would have
otherwise spent on private mortgage insur-
ance, he added.
For Julie Barnard, economic development
coordinator for South San Francisco, the
prospect of owning her own home as a sin-
gle person seemed distant before she started
looking into HEART’s first-time homebuy-
er loan program late last year.
“I never thought it would be a reality for
me in the Bay Area,” she said. “I hadn’t
thought about it seriously at all.”
Barnard said she learned of the program
through her work for the city and had seen a
coworker participate in it a few years ago,
but when the apartment building where she
was living was sold, the 38-year-old won-
dered whether she would be able continue

much to get housing built, albeit largely
market-rate. “I certainly want us to support
the concept of building more housing, but
we want to do it in a way that actually gets
us what we need and that’s affordable
units.”
Mayor Harvey Rarback agreed.
“The bill as currently written or imple-
mented, there are some cities that would
have to quadruple their population in the

Realtor for making her own home a reality.
Anita Domondon, vice president for
Meriwest Mortgage, said she has seen the
number of people HEART’s loan program
can help diminish over time as home prices
have skyrocketed and competition has
increased for homes in the Peninsula. She
said Meriwest Mortgage and HEART staff
hoped the new program limits would give
more prospective homebuyers the opportu-
nity to own a home in the community where
they live and work, noting the workshops
the nonprofit holds on the program have
consistently drawn more than 40 people
each time they are held.
Though interest remains high in these
programs, Domondon said the inventory of
homes available at a price point affordable
to residents has become increasingly limit-
ed. Because matching someone with a home
they can afford can take a long time,
Domondon said it’s especially gratifying
when they can welcome family members
into their first home.
“What we want to do is to be able to give
HEART homebuyers a fighting chance,” she
said. “They work in the community, so they

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Gilda Ward
Case Number: 19PRO00423
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Gilda Ward. A Petition
for Probate has been filed by Nathan
Gardner in the Superior Court of Califor-
nia, County of San Mateo. The Petition
for Probate requests that Nathan
Gardner be appointed as personal repre-
sentative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: MAY 15, 2019 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

Will Ukrainian comedian be any match for Putin?

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KIEV, Ukraine — Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s
landslide victory in Ukraine’s presidential
election has thrust a comedian and political
novice into the middle of the most danger-
ous flashpoint between Moscow and the
West since the end of the Cold War.
Whether Zelenskiy is any match at all for
Vladimir Putin, a canny and ruthless KGB
veteran who has led Russia for nearly 20
years, remains to be seen.
Zelenskiy, who played an accidental pres-
ident in a hugely popular sitcom but has no
real political background, has vowed to
keep Ukraine on its pro-Western course. At
the same time, he has pledged to quickly
reach out to Moscow to negotiate an end to
the five years of fighting in Ukraine’s
industrial east against Russian-backed sepa-
ratists, a conflict that has killed more than
13,000 people.
Arkady Moshes, an expert on Russia and
Ukraine with the Finnish Institute of
International Affairs, said the Kremlin may
try to exploit Zelenskiy’s lack of political
experience.
Moscow “can on the one hand offer him
something and basically outplay him diplo-
matically, and on the other hand threaten
Zelenskiy as an inexperienced commander-
in-chief with the destabilization of the situ-
ation in the east,” he said.
With nearly all ballots counted in
Sunday’s election, the 41-year-old
Zelenskiy won 73% of the vote to President
Petro Poroshenko’s 24%, reflecting disillu-
sionment with the old
elite amid economic
woes, deep-seated corrup-
tion and the war.
Russia annexed Crimea
in 2014 and has fomented
the fighting in Ukraine’s
industrial heartland in a
bid to maintain its influ-
Vladimir Putin ence in the country and
keep the former Soviet
state from joining the European Union and
NATO. NATO doesn’t welcome nations with
unsettled territorial conflicts.
The question is whether Zelenskiy will
have any more success than his predecessor
in halting the hostilities.
“Everything will depend on Putin —
whether the Kremlin will continue to use the
conflict in the east to put the brakes on
Kiev’s movement toward the EU and NATO,”
said Volodymyr Fesenko, head of the Penta

Sri Lanka military gets special powers after deadly bombings By Bharatha Mallawarachi
and Krishan Francis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — Sri Lanka’s
president gave the military sweeping
police powers starting Tuesday in the wake
of the Easter bombings that killed nearly
300 people, while officials disclosed that
intelligence agencies had warned weeks
ago of the possibility of an attack by the
radical Muslim group blamed for the
bloodshed.
The suicide bombings struck three
churches and three luxury hotels Sunday in
the island nation’s deadliest violence
since a devastating civil war ended in
2009. The government shut down some
social media, armed security forces
patrolled the largely deserted, central
streets in the capital of Colombo, and a
REUTERS curfew went into effect.

withdrawn when it ended. Prime Minister
Ranil Wickremesinghe said he feared the
massacre could unleash instability and he
vowed to “vest all necessary powers with
the defense forces” to act against those
responsible.
Adding to the tension, three unexploded
bombs blew up Monday inside a van
parked near one of the stricken churches as
police were trying to defuse them, sending
pedestrians fleeing in panic. No injuries
were reported. Dozens of detonators were
discovered near Colombo’s main bus
depot, but officials declined to say
whether they were linked to the attacks.
The government blocked access to
Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram after
the blasts, creating confusion and doing
little to reassure residents and visitors that
the danger had passed.
A nationwide state of emergency was
scheduled to begin at midnight Monday
(0630 GMT; 2:30 p.m. EDT) the presi-
dent’s office said, following the attacks
that killed at least 290 people, with more
than 500 wounded, according to police
spokesman Ruwan Gunasekara.
