REGION: Decision may be uncorked for 'boutique' wineries

By EDWARD SIFUENTES - Staff Writer

 

County supervisors are scheduled to decide Wednesday whether small wineries that want to offer tasting rooms will be required to pay for expensive building permits and environmental studies.

Winemakers in the Ramona area say that a requirement to pay for the permits and studies to open tasting rooms would dash their hopes of reviving the once-booming industry.

 

County officials have been struggling to find a compromise between vintners and their neighbors to create an ordinance that will allow "boutique" wineries to open tasting rooms without having to pay more than the $40,000 that some of the permits and studies cost.

In their recommendation to supervisors, county planners said the ordinance should require winery operators who want tasting rooms to conduct environmental impact reports addressing traffic, noise and related issues.

Despite those recommendations, the county Planning Commission, in a split vote April 4, sided with winemakers and ruled the studies weren't necessary.

It will be up to the supervisors to make the final decision.

Carolyn Harris, a member of the Ramona Valley Vineyards Association, said few winemakers could afford to produce such a study.

The association, which has led the fight to create the ordinance, represents about a dozen Ramona-area wineries.

"I don't think you're going to see too many applications for major-use permits" to build tasting rooms, Harris said Friday. "I can guarantee you that."

Ordinance proponents have said that making it easier for boutique wineries to open tasting rooms could help resurrect the industry, attract tourists and increase the county's tax base.

Opponents, including some backcountry residents, say they are worried that the wineries, some of which are on private roads, would create public safety hazards, such as drunken drivers, on poorly maintained roads.

In December, the supervisors asked county planners to address the question of allowing boutique wineries on private roads.

Owners proposed a plan that would allow small wineries with tasting rooms on private roads with fewer than 10 residences to create road maintenance agreements with neighbors.

Applicants on private roads with more than 10 residences would need a permit from the county.

Harris said the county's Department of Planning and Land Use and the county counsel threw wineries a curve ball late in the game, saying last month that if the ordinance is approved without requiring winery owners to conduct environmental studies, it could expose the county to a lawsuit.

Harris said the county should have made that determination two years ago, when the discussion about the ordinance began.

"We just wasted two years of our lives, thank you very much," Harris said.

Ordinance opponents say that requiring wineries to apply for a major-use permit, which includes the environmental study, is only fair to their neighbors.

"I know that some people think that the whole concept of having small wineries is neat, but you don't give up your zoning" requirements, said Jack Phillips, chairman of the Valle del Oro Community Planning Group.

The supervisors are scheduled to meet at 9 a.m. Wednesday at the county administration building in San Diego.

The missing email. Sanders has a decision to make. 04/19/08
                                        by Pat Flannery                         

Former Assistant Chief Operating Officer (ACOO) for the City of San Diego, Rick Reynolds, filed a lawsuit <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Sanders/IP_Gate/reynoldssuit.pdf>  this week against the City. Before being fired by Sanders on September 28, 2007 he had been responsible for nine City Depart ments, supervised approximately 1,400 City employees and managed more than $300 million of the City's annual budget. He has been unable to find a job since.

Mr. Reynolds' troubles began when the City's email screening system flagged an email from Fred Sainz, Director of Communications (DOC) for the Office of the Mayor, to Bob Kittle, editorial writer for the San Diego Union-Tribune, dated September 7, 2007. The email was snagged by the system because it contained numerous instances of the "f" word in reference to certain staff at the City Attorney's office and certain members of the City Council.

Chief Information Officer <http://www.sandiego.gov/ocio/index.shtml>  (CIO), Matt McGarvey, brought the offending email to his superior, ACOO Rick Reynolds, who in turn brought it to his superior, Chief Operating Officer (COO) Jay Goldstone. As it happens, Matt McGarvey quit the City this week to work nearer his home in Vista. I guess he "needed to spend more time with his family".

This particular spate of nastiness against Aguirre started with a blast email <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Aguirre/ItalianoEmail.pdf>  from MEA <https://www.sdmea.org/>   leader Judie Italiano to her 4,800 union members calling Aguirre a "mad man". It brought this warning <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Aguirre/Chadwick-Italiano.pdf>  dated August 9, 2007, from Scott Chadwick  the City's Labor Relations Director, regarding its "inappropriate use of the City's email system".

 

Despite being given a copy of an obscene and abusive email written by Sainz, Jay Goldstone his boss, did nothing about either the obscenity or the "inappropriate use of the City's email system". Far from being reprimanded, Sainz continued to work with his buddy Kittle (an outside person who does not work for the City) in an effort to destroy Mike Aguirre and to discredit those working for him - i.e. City staff!

Sainz obtained (and presumably still has) the IP addresses of all the computers on the desks of everybody who works in the City Attorney's office. Whoever heard of such a thing? Did he plan on impersonating Mike Aguirre or members of his staff over the Internet? Why else would he do such a thing? Did he hand those IP addresses to Bob Kittle? What use has Kittle put them to in the meantime?

Read the lawsuit fil ed this week <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Sanders/IP_Gate/reynoldssuit.pdf>  for a complete description of how Sainz ordered and obtained the IP addresses from the CIO's office on September 26, 2007. If it weren't for the fact that the Chief Information Officer <http://www.sandiego.gov/ocio/index.shtml>  (CIO), Matt McGarvey, was on vacation that day we may never have found out about it. In the absence of his boss, a subordinate at the CIO brought the IP request to McGarvey's boss, Rick Reynolds.

Thank goodness there were still a few honorable people left in the City at the time and that Rick Reynolds was one of them. Like everybody in San Diego Reynolds knew that Mayor Sanders was waging a war to get rid of City Attorney Mike Aguirre. Sanders hadn't particularly liked being called corrupt over Sunroad a few weeks earlier.

It is clear that Sainz' boss, Chief Operating Officer Jay Goldstone, conspiring to cover up Sainz's actions. But "what did the Mayor know and when did he know it?". For the Mayor the parallel with Watergate is obvious. He can no longer blame his staff.



Attempting to gain access to the computer of the City Attorney is the electronic equivalent of the Watergate bag job. That cover-up led to Nixon's last helicopter ride out of the White House - in disgrace.

Rick Reynolds, an ex-Navy officer and straight shooter, protested Sainz action in a memo to Goldstone dated September 27, 2007:

"the information could be combined with network logs or other trackable system information, resulting in individually identifiable information which would typically not be available for or subject to disclosure. In addition, disclosure of our internal IP addresses to any unauthorized parties would violate system security policies by providing information that could be used maliciously for 'hacking' or gaining unauthorized access, to City systems (either internally or externally)."  

Goldstone's reaction: he fired Reynolds! Loyalty trumps honor in the Sanders' administration. Goldstone chose loyalty to his boss (and to his $250,000 salary).

But now for the interesting part.

Pursuant to a Public Records Request, I have Fred Sainz's emails for the period concerned, August <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Sanders/IP_Gate/August.pdf> , September <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Sanders/IP_Gate/September.pdf>  and October <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Sanders/IP_Gate/October.pdf>  2007. They make interesting reading for other reasons too. More of that later.

But surprise, surprise! The obscene email to Bob Kittle dated September 7, 2007 is missing! Perhaps Fred considered it too much  for delicate ears such as mine or yours.

I don't know what the legal penalty for such a breach of the Public Records Act (PRA) is, but I can safely say that the political penalty for withholding such a document of great public interest as that email has now become, may be a "for real" picture of Sanders as the one above. And he will not be boarding a Marine helicopter.

For more background information and links to various documents associated with this story, read my blogs dated September 9, 2007 <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Archives/BlogOfSanDiego07_2.htm#09/30/07> ,  October 2, 2007 <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Archives/BlogOfSanDiego07_2.htm#10/02/07> and October 14, 2007 <http://www.blogofsandiego.com/Archives/BlogOfSanDiego07_2.htm#10/14/07a> . It seems that our Mayor's Office together with our monopoly newspaper the U-T, has dedicated an enormous amount of City and U-T time trying to discredit Mike Aguirre. Why?

Do you still think Mike is a little paranoid? Or is there something to what he says is going on? Is Sanders really corrupt, as Aguirre says he is? Is that what this is all about? Is that why they need to get rid of Aguirre so badly? We know there is a lot of money at stake for the unions in the pension issue. Is our City government all about special interest? Are Aguirre and Frye the only ones not in it for the money?

Sanders could clear the IP-gate issue up very quickly, by releasing the emails that were withheld in the above PRA request. But then he may have to fire Sainz, maybe even Goldstone. Stay tuned.

California passed a Non-Profit Integrity Act in 2004 that authorized regulation of non-profits by the Attorney General.  The AG did set-up a website that Ranters might find interesting at http://ag.ca.gov/charities/index.php.  Problem is that the Œsearch function‚ to obtain information on non-profit tax returns, etc. doesn‚t work (and the website refers parties to GuideStar - which charges a fee - as a first source of information).  
 
By law, non-profits must make annual filings with the AG‚s Registry of Charitable Trusts and pay a fee; which is supposed to subsidize a system of information access for public use.  
 
According to the AG website, there are 150,000 registered charitable trusts in California.  At a median filing fee of $125 per year fee, it would seem that over $15 million is raised annually to operate the AG‚s website for trusts, including a public access search feature.  As with a lot of other stuff in this state, the money seems to go in to Sacramento but the prepaid service isn‚t available.

Interesting thought.  My forebears were Philadelphia Quaker merchants; couldn‚t bear to fight in the Revolution but certainly supported it by giving-over horses, feed and woolens.  But they were also slave-owners and eager to get their fingers into every aspect of society that benefited the business ˆ including government, etc.
