Move signals dramatic shift in city policyBY NICK C. TONKIN

DAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENTIn the battle against Santa Barbara’s

gangs, city officials have decided to adda new, controversial weapon to theirarsenal: A gang injunction.In a joint press conference yesterday

at the Jury Assembly Room, the SantaBarbara Police Chief, City Attorney,District Attorney, and Mayor announcedthat the city had filed a civil complaint inSuperior Court yesterday seeking prelim-inary injunctions against 30 identified asactive gang members.The move marks a dramatic shift in

policy for Police Chief Cam Sanchez,Mayor Helene Schneider, and other city

leaders. Sanchez said the list includedboth Eastside and Westside gangs, menand women, but no juveniles.If upheld by the courts, the injunctions

would bar them from associating withother known gang members, possessingfirearms or other dangerous weapons,using drugs or alcohol, trespassing,spraying graffiti or possess graffiti tools,or performing any gang recruitment indesignated “Safe zones.” In addition,they could not set foot in certain parks ornear schools.“We believe this will be an effective

tool for the police department,” saidSanchez.The “safe zones” consist of the

Eastside and Westside as well as numer-ous parks and schools. The city has alsoapplied to have these zones extend to thewaterfront areas on the Fourth of Julyand Fiesta.“Association” can include driving in

the same vehicle, walking along thestreet together, or gathering in the samearea. Even two cousins attending a birth-day party would be in violation. ButChief Deputy District Attorney HilaryDozer said that while it seemed harsh, itis a key component in the injunctions.“One of the major aspects of the

injunctions is to make otherwise inno-cent conduct for law-abiding individuals

Miramar moves aheadThe Miramar Hotel sits along Montecito’s coast line overgrown with weeds.


BY JOSHUA MOLINADAILY SOUND EDITOR

Montecito and the South Coast havemoved a step closer to seeing theMiramar Resort Hotel once again openits doors.The Santa Barbara County Board of

Supervisors on Tuesday approvedCaruso Affiliated’s revised, scaled-backdevelopment plans for the beach fronthotel, which was once one of the region’stop draws.“I’d like to thank the Supervisors for

their support of the project, particularlySupervisor (Salud) Carbajal who hasbeen steadfast throughout,” said RickCaruso, CEO of Caruso Affiliated. “Ourcommitment to deliver a world-classcoastal resort to Montecito has neverwavered.”The collapse of the economy and real

estate market delayed the project. Inorder to make the new Miramar morefinancially palatable, Caruso scaled backthe proposal.He reduced the size of the hotel down

from 192 to 186 rooms, eliminated onelevel of underground parking, moved a

separate ballroom into the main buildingand reduced the size ofThe Miramar was once the pride and

joy of Montecito, a high-class destinationfor elite travelers. The blue tile-roofedhotel was a world-class destination.It was the only hotel in the area with

room on the sand, just steps from crash-ing waves. The Miramar featured twoswimming pools, tennis courts, and his-toric rail car on the property.The road to Tuesday’s unanimous

supervisors vote was filled with manytwists.Billionaire real estate developer Ian

Schrager, founder of the famed NewYork nightclub Studio 54, bought thehotel from the Gawzner family in 1998.To the surprise of many, he closed theaging hotel in 2000, with the intent ofbringing it up to modern standards.But Schrager couldn’t secure financ-

ing for the project. He sold the hotel tobillionaire, Beanie Babies mogul TyWarner.Warner was unable to build the proj-

ect. He sold the hotel to CarusoAffiliatedin 2007.

In the last decade, the project hasdegenerated into a community embar-rassment.A chain-link fence surrounds the

hotel. Plywood boards cover the win-dows. And the deep blue tile roofs are inshambles.Tuesday’s vote clears the way for a

new beginning.“It is unfortunate that the economic

downturn has caused a delay, yet the timehas been well spent as I believe therevised plan approved today is betterthan the original,” Caruso said after thevote. “Our goal was to make the hotelmore efficient and reduce its impacts onthe community while maintaining thesame high quality we promised. Thisplan achieves that goal.”Caruso is hopeful that investors will

come next.“Based on our discussions with poten-

tial lenders, we are optimistic that wewill soon be able to secure financing forthe new plan,” Caruso said.Other changes include consolidating

the ballroom with the lobby building,See MIRAMAR, page 12

NEWS IN BRIEFLocals uneasy over nuclear plantsCalifornians have long had an uneasy relationship with their

two nuclear power plants, and the crisis in Japan raises newdoubts about how long nuclear power will survive in the earth-quake-prone state.The first test of the Golden State's support for nuclear power

is coming soon, as the nuclear plants perched on the scenic butfault-laden California coastline since the early 1980s begin theprocess for 20-year license renewals.California banned construction of new nuclear power plants

in the 1970s, when the then-governor Jerry Brown joined "no-nukes" activists in opposing construction of Diablo Canyonnuclear station on the Central Coast. Seismic safety worriesplayed a prominent part in the campaign.But the plant went ahead and nuclear power today generates

about 15 percent of California electricity, slightly more than theportion generated by renewable sources in a state known for itsclean-energy drive to combat global warming.

Workers briefly abandon JapanWorkers were ordered to withdraw briefly from a stricken

Japanese nuclear power plant on Wednesday after radiation lev-els surged, Kyodo news reported, a development that suggestedthe crisis was spiraling out of control.Just hours earlier another fire broke out at the earthquake-

crippled plant, which has sent low levels of radiation waftinginto Tokyo in the past 24 hours, triggering both fear in the cap-ital and international alarm.The workers were allowed back into the plant after almost an

hour when the radiation levels had fallen.Japan's chief government spokesman said it was "not realis-

tic" to think the Daiichi nuclear plant in Fukushima, 240 kms(150 miles) north of Tokyo, would reach the start of a nuclearchain reaction, but said officials were talking to the U.S. mili-tary about possible help.

Japan Gov’t loses public trustPublic trust in the Japanese government faces its biggest test

since World War Two over the handling of the nation's nuclearcrisis, raising concerns that a breakdown in confidence couldfuel panic and chaos if appeals for calm go unheeded.Foreigners are leaving Tokyo, or shutting themselves indoors,

and supermarket shelves are running empty despite authoritiesassuring citizens there is no need to panic from the crisis unfold-ing at a quake-stricken nuclear power plant.The government of Prime Minister Naoto Kan was already

unpopular before the disasters."This government is useless," Masako Kitajima, a Tokyo

office worker in her 50s, said as radiation levels ticked up in the

SBCC dining room get faceliftDAILYSOUNDSTAFFREPORTSanta Barbara City College’s Gourmet

Dining Room just got a little more gour-met. After nearly four decades, the JohnDunn Gourmet Dining Room has a newlook, thanks to the generosity of donors.Chad and Ginny Dreier and the late

Robert Maclean and his wife Barbara,helped fund the seven-week renovation,which was finished in time for the open-ing of the Spring semester.The changes include new flooring, a

new suspended room light and tracklighting system for art installations, walland ceiling tiles painting, new seating,acoustical ceiling improvements, and anew audio/visual system.The space is now more functional for

presentations and meetings, officials said.“Our newly remodeled facility will

definitely enhance our students’ trainingexperience as many of our culinary grad-uates will go to work in comparableenvironments,” said Randy Bublitz, chairof the SBCC School of Culinary Arts.“Our diners will also experience a newambiance which will increase the overallenjoyment of their meals and their timewith us.”The gourmet dining room serves as a

live classroom for culinary arts studentslooking to learn and practice their tradein the hands-on teaching laboratory envi-ronment.Faculty, staff, students and members

of the public can eat at the dining room.Nearly 600 students have received

degrees or certificates from the CulinaryArts Program since 1985. The upgradeswill also improve the settings for specialevents, receptions and other functions.

EARTHQUAKERETROFITTING

‘Til divorce do us partOur beloved pets…they make us

laugh with their silly antics and sighwith contentment when they curl upnext to us on cold, winter nights. Theyare there for us in sickness and in

health; through thegood times and thebad. They welcomeus home after ahard day and offerus unconditionallove on a dailybasis. Our fur chil-dren ask for little inreturn other than awarm place tosleep, a bowl ofkibble, and theoccasional scratchbehind the ears.

If only our marriages were thisuncomplicated.With the divorce rate in the United

States hovering around 50 percent, thefamily court system is inundated withcouples fighting over issues like alimo-ny, child support, and division of prop-erty. Increasingly, custody fights areensuing over the family pet and thisemotional tug-of-war takes a toll onboth the court system and on families.“The courts really don’t want to deal

with the pets,” says Connolly Oyler, anattorney in Santa Monica. “They haveenough problems dealing with issueslike money and child support.” Still, thecourts will make a concerted effort toplace pets in the most appropriate homeenvironment. “Most judges will try anddeal fairly with the animal issue byallowing shared custody,” Oyler says.“The goal is usually to have a sharedcustody arrangement. And, if there aremultiple pets in the household, the judgelikes to see them go together.”Oyler says it’s common for a judge to

ask each spouse how much time theywould allow the other partner to spendwith the family pet once the divorce isfinal. “Generally, he or she will rule infavor of the person who is willing to bemore generous with their shared time.”In 1999, my friends Mike and Linda

decided to end their seven-year mar-

riage. Because they didn’t have chil-dren, the divorce was relatively simple:Divide up the “stuff” and walk away.The one glitch in the plan was what todo with their dog and two cats.“When my ex and I split, pet custody

was the biggest issue for us to resolve,”says Linda. “My husband got our dogBodie, a 120 pound Coonhound andMastiff mix, because he’s much more ofa dog person. I kept the two cats, Juiceand Ya Ya.”Luckily for Mike and Linda, they

were able to reach an agreement abouttheir pets without the requisite hair-pulling and name calling. But other cou-ples may resort to using the family petas a pawn in order to gain the upperhand in an already tense situation.“For most people, it’s about loving

their animals,” says Joel Gavriele-Gold,Ph.D., a New York psychologist andpsychoanalyst and author of ‘When PetsCome Between Partners.’ “Then thereare those people who use the custodybusiness for revenge; for spite. We proj-ect our own issues onto our pets whenwe’re in relationships as if it were the

pets having the problem when, in fact, itis ourselves not dealing with our ownissues.”The good news is that, in time, it is

possible for divorced couples to healtheir hurt and pain and move on withtheir lives. And, every once in awhile,the unexpected happens.“I was working with a divorcing cou-

ple who had each moved to differentstates and had an agreement betweenthem to take the dog and cat for twoweeks at a stretch,” says Gavriele-Gold.“They met halfway every two weeks.After about three months of doing this,they couldn’t stand it anymore. Theyrealized how much they missed eachother and got remarried!”

a violation of the law,” Dozer said. This isbecause the injunctions contain an “opt-out”clause where an individual named in theinjunction could renounce their gang member-ship or could prove they were no longer part ofa gang. By blocking normal activities, officialsbelieve that it will encourage those served withinjunctions to end their gang affiliations.“The goal is not to arrest gang members,”

Sanchez said. “The goal is to keep the city ofSanta Barbara safe.”Sanchez insisted the injunctions are not a

profiling tool, saying that they apply only to 30specific adults. Sanchez also said that despiteseveral high profile incidents, over 90 percentof gang violence is done among Latinos.“What do you want me to tell [those ninety

percent]?” Sanchez said.City officials said they were still issuing

notices to members named in the complaintand a copy of the complaint would be releasedto the media on Wednesday.City Attorney Steve Wiley said getting pre-

liminary injunctions issued would takebetween four and six months. Permanentinjunctions would take longer as the complaintmakes its way through the court system.District Attorney Joyce Dudley said her

office would be committed to prosecuting vio-lators of the injunctions but emphasized thatthe purpose wasn’t just to keep gang membersin jail.“We also want to stop their ability to recruit

our city’s children,” Dudley said. Sanchez tookthis point up and said the problems facingyouth outreach programs in the city, other thanfunding, are gang recruiters targeting theyouth.“Their competition isn’t the police depart-

ment or the district attorney’s office, their

competition is the folks that are recruiting,”Sanchez said.Mayor Schneider said she herself had been

skeptical about implementing gang injunc-tions, worrying that it would raise profiling,civil rights, and community relations issueswith little guarantee of results.However, she believes the city’s approach

by targeting only specific members and includ-ing an opt-out clause will help reduce futureincidents.“You can think of it as a restraining order on

certain areas with thirty individuals as opposedto a blanketing of certain neighborhoods withcertain parts of the community,” Schneider said.But some in the audience weren’t con-

vinced. Osiris Castañeda, who works in one ofthe youth programs, isn’t sure the rhetoricmatches the reality. He said many teenagersare given the option of registering as a gangmember in order for a reduced sentence, anoption which has lead to them being handed aninjunction today.Castañeda said the anti-gang measures the

city is already taking are working.“The proof is in the statistics,” Castañeda

said after the conference. “Crime is down,gangs are down, why are we doing this?”The last year, two attacks on residents with

no gang ties have sparked heightened aware-ness. In April Robert Simpson, an ArroyoBurro beach surfer, was allegedly stabbed inthe neck by Adrian Robles after Simpson wasinvolved in an argument with another man,Rudy Gallegos.In October, four Eastside gang members

allegedly beat George Ied as he walked homefrom his job as a liquor store clerk and left himfor dead. Ied did die five days later while atCottage Hospital. Two of the suspects, Migueland Ismael Parra, had recently been releasedafter serving two years in custody after theOperation Gator Roll sweep.

Council approves detox centerBY NICK C. TONKIN

DAILY SOUND CORRESPONDENTWith protests from neighbors on one

side, and pleas from addiction treatmentactivists on the other, the Santa BarbaraCity Council approved an $865,000grant to move the Project RecoveryDetox Center to 1020 Placido Avenue.The detox center, currently the only

one outside of Cottage Hospital, has beenhoused in the same building as CasaEsperanza at 816 Cacique Street.But the presence of so many Casa res-

idents that still use drugs and alcoholhasn’t been good for detox center clients,and the center’s presence is starting tosuffocate the space-strapped Casa.The new building will add two beds, a

quieter environment, and allow mixedgender services in the center’s 14-dayrecovery program run by the Council onAlcohol and Drug Abuse. But someneighbors don’t like the idea of a detoxfacility going up on their street and sup-porters and protestors of the facilityturned out in force during public com-ment.“I believe having a place to detox with

professional guidance and understandinghelped me with one of the best decisionsI have made in my life,” said VictoriaMather, a previous participant of theRecovery Project.Rebecca Long, whose property shares

a backyard fence with proposed centerhad concerns about smokers and addictsbeing a short climb away from the yardwhere her nine-month-old daughterplays.

“I don’t think it’s fair for CADA orthe Housing Authority to say this isgoing to be any kind of improvement onthe neighborhood, it’s not. If you livebehind it, it’s not. If you lived around it,it’s not,” Long said.The council expressed sympathy for

the neighbors’ viewpoint, but ultimatelysided with CADA staff.“When the boat is leaking and you

have a way to plug the hole, you go for-

ward and do it,” Council member BendyWhite said.White suggested some of the neigh-

bors’ concerns about privacy and fenceheight could be addressed when centergets its standards permit—the permit thatensures the facility meets all the qualifi-cations for a detox center.Dale Francisco also supported the

center, believing that the neighbors’ fearswould be put to rest once they saw thefacility.“I think many of the concerns the

neighbors have about this facility wouldprobably be allayed if they had beenaround the functioning detox facility,”Francisco said. “It would be quiet andwell run.”Even Council member Frank

Hotchkiss, who had earlier opposed theWilbridge project near Peabody School,supported the center. After questioningsome CADA staff, Hotchkiss said thatthere is some misconception about thetypes of people who would be staying atthe center, pointing out the center wouldn’t

be used exclusively by homeless people.“I think you’ll find a very controlled,

conscientious neighbor,” Hotchkiss said.Mayor Helene Schneider believed that

the presence of the detox center couldeven be a good thing for the neighbor-hood given the controlled schedule detoxpatients must abide by.“In fact, if they could be a good neigh-

bor and working with the neighborhood,I think it’s going to create a safer overallenvironment in the area,” Schneider said.Council member Michael Self cast the

only dissenting vote. While Self applaud-ed CADA’s work and acknowledged theneed for a detox program, she believedthat a better site for the center could befound.“With all the vacant properties in eco-

nomic distress, it seems like somethingin another location would be more suit-able for this.”The measure passed 5-1 with Self vot-

ing no and Council member RandyRowse recusing himself as his wife is anactive member of CADA.

WimVerkaik, Director of Administration forTheCouncil on Alcohol &Drug Abuse stands in frontof the site of the proposed detox center.
