Gov. Jerry Brown proposed a $122.5 billion state spending plan Tuesday and warned of a looming $2 billion
deficit because of falling tax revenues.
A six-story, 68-condominium
downtown development scaled
back by litigation was approved
Monday by the Redwood City
Council, whose members took the
opportunity to explore how the
city can meet rising housing
demand while balancing community needs.
The council voted 5-1 to
approve a scaled-back development at 603 Jefferson Ave. on the
corner of Jefferson Avenue and
Bradford Street. Councilwoman
Janet Borgens voted against it and
Councilwoman Diane Howard
recused herself due to potential

Following state voters legalizing recreational marijuana, South San Francisco officials are slated to examine establishing local
regulations on sale and cultivation of the
drug.
The South San Francisco City Council will
host a study session Wednesday, Jan. 11,
regarding a variety of potential new restrictions designed to rein in the budding industry.
The variety of initiatives to be considered
include prohibiting smoking pot in public,
disallowing commercial sales, restricting
outdoor grows and requiring permits or other
security oversights for personal use, according to a city report.
Mayor Pradeep Gupta said he believes the
issue is ripe for discussion, as he has identified a variety of questions regarding how
legalization may take hold in South San
Francisco.
I will go into this study session with an
open mind with regards to how it will be
affecting our kids, our businesses and our
community, he said.
Though no action is scheduled during the
upcoming meeting, officials should look to
move quickly if they intend to establish new
restrictions as planting season for outdoor
grows should begin in the spring, according
to the report.
Officials may also opt to adopt a temporary
moratorium immediately butting out all marijuana sales, cultivation and processing,
along with barring the legal minimum of
growing six indoor plants for personal use,
to grant more time for a deeper examination
of the issue, according the report.
In the months leading up to 57 percent of
California voters passing Proposition 64 to
allow marijuana use for adults 21 and older,
local cities such as San Bruno, Foster City,
Burlingame and San Carlos took action to
establish their own set of regulations on the
drug. County officials are also exploring a
regional approach to potentially craft a template for marijuana rules, which cities within
the county could adopt in an effort to avoid a
patchwork of regulations.
Though proposals to establish local regulations have spread across the Peninsula,
Gupta acknowledged the issue could have an
enhanced resonance in South San Francisco
due to the citys hub of life sciences companies potentially interested in capitalizing on
the drug.
The legalization approval rate among
South San Francisco voters matched the state
level, as about 13,850 of the 24,300 residents who participated the fall election supported the initiative, according to the report.
The proposition passed in each precinct
across the city, except a small area near Alta

than years past. Add in the potential for significant changes to federal policies ranging
from health care to climate change with
president-elect Donald Trump slated to take
office next week, and California leaders are
favoring a cautious approach to spending.
State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, said
he anticipates changes during Browns May
budget revision will reflect possible federal
policy shifts.
Theres so much uncertainty in the future
of California related to the economy, to economic growth as well as the effects of
Washington, Hill said. What happens in
the next three or four months, that will
affect what we do.
Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South
San Francisco, agreed the states budget
could take a hit under a new presidency. He
noted the most draconian estimates predict a
$15 billion hit to Californias pocketbook
if Congress repealed the Affordable Care
Act.
But its very, very difficult at this juncture to gauge or project what that hole in our
budget is going to be because it really is
contingent upon a whole host of political
factors that are beyond our control, Mullin
said. This is where I would applaud the
governors prudence in his spending plan.
Assemblyman Marc Berman, D-Palo Alto,
echoed support for a fiscally responsible
BUDGET
Continued from page 1
ing of a potential $1.6 billion budget deficit
and proposing a spending plan that keeps
general fund expenditures flat at $122.5 billion. Since costs rise every year, his plan
would require cuts to keep pace, and he suggested eliminating billions of dollars allocated to education, state building construction, subsidized housing, college scholarships and child care providers.
He seeks to boost the states reserve fund
to $7.9 billion up from $6.7 billion in
the current budget year to help soften
what he warned is an inevitable recession
after 10 years of economic recovery.
Youve got to save your money or youre
going to lose the farm, Brown said,
acknowledging that he expected some
shoving back and forth with lawmakers as a
final budget compromise is negotiated by
June.
Democratic legislative leaders gave
Republican reaction
lower costs through budget verbiage reminiscent of his by-right proposal. The key
difference this go-round is his one-time
$400 million offer for affordable housing
needs is no longer on the table.
At a time when we need to invest in
affordable housing and transportation and
other infrastructure to sustain the economic
growth that were seeing, the governor, at
least on affordable housing, is moving in
the opposite direction. I really think there
is a fundamental philosophical divide
between the governor and the Legislature
when it comes to funding affordable housing, Mullin said. Were delinquent in our
duty if we dont address this crisis.
With the governor aware the Bay Area
serves as an economic engine for the state,
Mullin noted investing in housing and alleviating traffic is good for business as well
as Californias financial stability.
Brown has historically shown fiscal prudence and is again looking at financial projections that are more conservative than the
states Legislative Analysts Office, said
Berman, who emphasized the need to
address issues that are of particular importance to the region.
Its great that we are building up these
reserves, but we also need to make sure that
we are able to address some of the real concerns that exist in California, in the Bay
Area, on the Peninsula, in the 24th
Assembly District. And I think public college affordability, and without a doubt housing and transportation are the most pressing issues that were facing, Berman said.
poses cutting $3.2 billion from future commitments, about half by giving schools and
community colleges less than expected. He
wants to stop enrolling new college students
in the Middle Class Scholarships program,
saving more than $30 million, cancel $300
million in upgrades to state buildings and
drop a $400 million proposal for affordable
housing that the Legislature rejected last
year.
Brown also proposed canceling higher
payments for state-funded child care
providers.
The governors budget includes $800 million more to cover people who joined MediCal under Obamacare. He also revisited his
previous proposal, which has stalled in the
Legislature, to increase gas and vehicle
taxes to raise $4.2 billion per year for road
construction and maintenance. In all,
Californias spending plan would reach
$179.5 billion when restricted special
funds and bonds are included.
Brown also proposed eliminating drivers
license suspensions for people who fail to
pay court fines a move sought by social
justice activists who say the practice traps
people in poverty.
Many Republicans, who are more often
aligned with Brown than legislative
Democrats on spending, offered qualified
support for the governors approach but said
he should look to fix roads with existing
funds rather than new taxes.
Sen. Jim Nielsen, R-Gerber, the ranking
Republican on the Senate budget committee,
called the budget perilously balanced and
urged Brown to continue holding the line on
spending.
We cannot be getting loose with the
purse in California, he said.
Trump and the Republican-led U.S.
Congress have vowed to repeal or alter many
programs that affect California, from immigration to President Barack Obamas health
care law. California has embraced the program and has enrolled about 5 million people in private health insurance or publicly
funded Medi-Cal coverage.
The proposed budget assumes federal policies remain the same, but Brown noted the
uncertainty is another reason to maintain
the fiscal prudence for which he consistently advocates.

OPINION
Editorial
there are enough warning signs that
now is not the time to engage in additional spending. In fact, quite the
opposite is true before we reach
conditions that could merit dipping
into the reserves to balance the budget.
That is one reason why we have
strongly encouraged the state to provide for a rainy-day fund since the
economic downturn of 2001-02. The
states boom-and-bust cycles are too
acute to engage in any other form of
scal behavior. Unfortunately, it was
just recently in 2014 that California
voters put the concept into law with
Proposition 2. However, it is also
important to note that the rainy-day
fund is not the panacea to any future
budget woes, or on a grand scale a
collapse of our economy. It is simply
a salve to help future cuts from
becoming more severe.
And with revenue trajectory starting
to turn sideways instead of up, the
governor is right in strongly suggesting that spending remain low.
Its a bitter pill to swallow for
those in the Legislature who face calls
from their constituents and also interest groups for new spending on key
programs to meet a wide breadth of
needs from housing to social services
and health care and even education.
Additionally, and this is always a
sore subject for those in a variety of
positions, the state is facing a growing wall of debt related to previous
borrowing and retirement liabilities,
which is largely a carry-over from the
budgetary shell games of years past
and unsustainable worker contracts
from as far back as the late 1990s.
Climbing this wall is no small task,
and every effort should be made to
reduce it as quickly as possible.
California is in decent nancial
shape and the governor has been
incredibly cognizant of the potential
for that to turn quickly. He has also
proven responsible in acknowledging
the impact of previous decisions on
the states overall budget situation
and its lingering impacts. When he
started this tenure as governor, the
state was facing terrible decits. Now
that the nancial situation has turned
around, yet showing signs of weakness, this is a time for resolve and scal conservatism and Brown has
proven to be good at both much to
the states benet.

Business brief
Johnson & Johnson to reveal
average drug price increases
Johnson & Johnson plans next
month to disclose average price
increases of its prescription drugs,
as the industry tries to calm the
storm over soaring prices.
The health care giant will divulge
its 2016 average increases in list
price and net price, or what middlemen such as insurers and distributors pay J&J after discounts and
rebates.
Analysts say that will help J&Js
image more than patients initially,
but could push other drugmakers to
tame future price increases and be
more transparent.
We hope that can create a better
understanding of the industry and ...
ultimately improve patient access
to medicines, Joaquin Duato, head
of J&Js prescription drug business,
said in an interview Tuesday.
With annual price tags topping
$100,000 for many new drugs for
cancer and rare diseases, some
patients have been unable to afford
their medicines. Huge price hikes
on old products with little competition, like Mylans EpiPen emergency allergy injectors, also have
left some patients scrambling.
High and rising prices have also
infuriated doctors, insurance companies and politicians, and triggered government probes into the
industrys practices. The government has no power now to regulate
prices, but the industry appears to
be starting to move to deflect further scrutiny and avoid price controls.

Sharapova to return from
ban in April at Stuttgart event
MOSCOW Maria Sharapova will return from her 15month doping ban at a tournament in Germany in April.
Car manufacturer Porsche, which sponsors both Sharapova
and the event in Stuttgart, said Tuesday that Sharapova has
been given a wild-card entry into the tournament. It will be her
first official competition since she tested
positive for meldonium at last years
Australian Open.
I could not be happier to have my first
match back on tour at one of my favorite
tournaments, said the 29-year-old
Sharapova, who won the Stuttgart tournament from 2012-14. I cant wait to see all
my great fans and to be back doing what I
love.
Maria
Sharapova will be eligible to return on
Sharapova
April 26, the third day of main-draw play,
which could leave her facing a busy schedule of matches in order to win a fourth Stuttgart title.
Im sure the fans will be excited to see her play, WTA CEO
Steve Simon said in a statement.
The Russian will have to rely on wild-card invites to tournaments, including Grand Slams, for a while because her ban
means she has fallen out of the world rankings, which only
count tournament performances over the preceding 12 months.
Sharapova was originally banned for two years but that was
reduced on appeal in October. She said she had used meldonium
for years for medical reasons and was not aware it had been
banned for 2016.
During her ban, she has played in some exhibition events.
Sharapova also enrolled in a two-week program at Harvard
Business School last year.

sometimes, three defenders at her to force her to give up the
ball.
Cedeno is more than willing to share and time and again,
she penetrated the Cougars defense and dished to a teammate,
who, more often than not, missed the shot. Cedeno nished
with just one assist for the game, but not for a lack of trying.
It was more so what they were doing (defensively in the
second quarter), Carion said of Cedenos quiet second period. [The Cougars] were saying, Anyone but her.
The second quarter also saw the Cougars nd their rhythm
offensively. They started to move the ball much better and
with more authority. And those easy buckets that were missed
in the rst quarter starting falling in the second.
After South Citys Nevaeh Miller scored on a putback to
open the second quarter, HMB responded with a 13-1 run.
Longaker, who nished with a team-high 12 points, and Ana
Cordes each scored ve points during the run that saw the
Cougars close their decit to 21-16 with 4:12 left in the rst
half.
We looked like a team that knew what it wanted to do
offensively (in the second quarter), Veloso said.
The Cougars went cold for the rest of the period, however,
and the Warriors gave themselves some breathing room at
halftime, ending the half on a 9-1 run including Cedenos
fourth 3-pointer of the half, a 25-footer as the shot clock hit
zero to lead 30-17 at the break.
South City extended its lead in the third. After a Siohban
Calhoun scored on a putback to open the third-quarter scoring for the Cougars, Jerlene Miller answered with a putback
of her own and Cedeno knocked down her fth 3 and added a
fast-break layup to put the Warriors up 37-19.
South City eventually pushed its lead to 20, 43-23, with
1:26 to play in third before the Cougars turned to what they
do best defensively: play the full-court press.
It worked in the fourth quarter as HMB outscored the
Warriors 17-6 over the nal eight minutes. South City struggled to bring the ball upcourt even Cedeno, who could not
always beat a triple-team. With no secondary ball handler,
the Warriors struggled to get into an offensive set. When
they did, more often than not, they missed the shot. They
were just 3 for 12 from the eld in those last eight minutes of
the game.
We couldnt get that last pass or nish, Carion said of
handling the Cougars press. We did 90 percent of it right
(in breaking the press). We just couldnt make that last
pass.

Sports brief
Another Rio Olympic venue
struggling to find a use
RIO DE JANEIRO Almost five months
after the Rio de Janeiro Olympics ended,
another venue is struggling to find a use.
Rio de Janeiros city hall said Tuesday that
the Deodoro Olympic Park, which was to be
used as a park and recreation area after the
games, has been closed.
Deodoro was the second-largest venue
cluster during the Olympics and is located in
Rios impoverished north, far from the
famous Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. It
held events that included equestrian, rugby
and field hockey.
Measures are being taken to ensure that
the space is reopened as soon as possible,
the city said in a statement to The
Associated Press. It did not say when that
might happen. It said a contract had been
terminated at the end of the year with a company operating the park.
Rios new Mayor Marcelo Crivella took
over on Jan. 1, replacing Eduardo Paes who
served his two-term limit and was credited as
the driving force behind the games by the
International Olympic Committee.
SPORTS
The parks main attraction is a public
swimming area, which is now unavailable at a time when temperatures in the South
American summer in Rio soar daily to 35C
(95F).
In another setback, Rio de Janeiro last
month handed over responsibility to the
federal government for sports venues in the
main Olympic Park after a bid to auction
them failed.
Officials said only one bidder participated, and failed to provide required assurances
for a 25-year concession.
Brazils Sports Minister Leonardo
Picciani said at the time that the federal government would operate the two arenas, the
velodrome, and the tennis stadium.
A $20-million golf course built for the
Olympics is also struggling to find players
and funds to take care of upkeep.
The state of Rio de Janeiro has declared a
financial calamity and is several months
behind in paying teachers and public
employees. The country itself is in the deepest recession in decades, with unemployment at 12 percent.
This stands in stark relief to the $10-12
billion Brazil spent to organize the
Olympics. It spent a similar amount organizing the 2014 World Cup.

and 45.3 percent overall. The two-time
reigning NBA MVP fell short of a fourth
straight game with 30 or more points.
Golden State, which played its lone road
game in 10 on Sunday with a bus trip to
nearby Sacramento, again struggled to find
an offensive flow while missing everything
from layups to open 3s during stretches.
Miami lost its third straight game and
dropped to 1-4 on this five-game road as
coach Erik Spoelstra works to help his team
find our identity on both ends of the court
and doing it more consistently.
Whitesides alley-oop dunk with 7:15
remaining pulled the Heat within 85-80 and
forced a Warriors timeout. Tyler Johnson
scored to make it a three-point game before
the Warriors closed it out in their typical,
impressive fashion.

LOTS
Continued from page 1
recommendation and voted 4-0 on the new
standards with Councilman Ron Collins
absent. The changes will increase the minimum lot size for subdivisions to 10,000
square feet from 5,000 square feet and minimum lot width to 65 feet from 40 feet.
The new standards also include an additional provision restricting flag lots in residential neighborhoods. City officials and residents have previously deemed flag lots as disruptive to the general pattern of a neighborhood.
Several community members came forward
to urge the council to revert back to the pre2011 standards. Many residents, like Brent
Cowan, have attended public hearings on the
topic since June when the City Council
imposed an emergency moratorium, which
prohibited some residential property owners
from splitting their lots to build additional
homes. Cowan lives on Cedar Street, a neighborhood that faced a possible lot split with
resulting flag lots earlier this year. He said
the current standards had a negligible impact
on the citys housing shortage, and only
negatively impact neighbors of the eligible
properties split to accommodate large homes
on comparatively small lots.
At the end of the day, you see a five to 10
[times] factor in terms of dissatisfied residents for one resident that is satisfied, said
Cowan, according to a video of the meeting.
Resident Peter Tzifas urged the council to
vote against changing the current standards
and instead to reconsider the entire ordinance.
Just as the current code doesnt fit the
neighborhoods in and around Carmelita nor
does the proposed code fit my neighborhood
or the rest of San Carlos, he said.
Tzifas said he favored policies requiring
property owners considering lot splits to
take a neighborhoods existing qualities into
account. He said he liked the approach of one
policy requiring a minimum lot size of 5,000
LOCAL
square feet, with the additional requirement
that the lot split align with the average lot
size within a 300-foot radius.
Vice Mayor Matt Grocott was sympathetic
to Tzifas concerns and advised the council to
continue thinking about the entire ordinance
and how it might play out in the future.
Are we just going to take this action
tonight because weve heard so many comments? Im surprised this has gone through
the process and so many people have had the
chance to look at it to me, this is a bit of
a knee-jerk reaction to something that was
bad, he said.
Grocott acknowledged the public concerns
the council has received in the past year, and
ultimately voted to approve the new standards.
Mayor Bob Grassilli said when the standards allowing lot splits passed in 2011 they
were not meant to negatively impact San
Carlos residents, but rather had unintended
consequences made apparent after economic
conditions shifted.
A lot of times, government does things
because no ones in the room, he said. I
wish every night we had folks like this.
Councilman Cameron Johnson thanked
community members for voicing their concerns throughout the process, resulting in
improved standards for property owners in
the future.
I hope this wont be the end of it, he said,
according to a video of the meeting. I hope
you think of other things we can do to
improve your neighborhoods.
In other business, the council moved to
reopen public hearing on the regulations for
formula businesses downtown at its next
meeting on Jan. 23 to incorporate Collins
input. The efforts aim was to keep mom-andpop businesses from being displaced and
retain the areas small-town charm as commercial rents soar. Support was mixed, however, because it could have limited retail
stores that people may want downtown.
The council also moved to discuss changing to the citys general election cycle to
align with statewide election dates to Jan.
23.

story building with 91 condominiums and
4,500 square feet of ground-floor retail
space was approved by the Planning
Commission in May but appealed by citizens group Redwood City Residents for
Responsible Development to the council,
which denied the appeal and approved the
project in July.
That sparked a citizens group lawsuit, settled in November with the agreement the
project applicant, The Pauls Corporation,
would submit a scaled-back plan for review.
Geoff Carr, a longtime downtown resident
and attorney representing Redwood City
Residents for Responsible Development,
expressed frustration it took a lawsuit to
achieve the settlement compromise at
Mondays meeting.
This kind of compromise should have
been hammered out without a lawsuit, he
said. If anyone in the city had come to us
and said, What do you think about this
one? We could have ended up with this
without all of this difficulty, expense and
unnecessary controversy.
Paul Powers, president of The Pauls
Corporation, agreed that the compromise
was not ideal, but represented a sustainable
path forward in increasing Redwood Citys
housing stock.
We support the settlement. It wasnt our
first choice, he said. We believe strongly
that the previous project and this project
represents smart growth.
Balancing needs
Several residents lent their support for
the projects approval. Peter Frank, a 20year resident, said he and his wife are looking for ways to downsize from their fourbedroom home in Redwood City, which is
central to where their children live on the
Peninsula.
We want to stay here. I want a place I can
move to, where I can own it, he said. Its
the perfect answer for us, It [would be] the
last move were going to make.
Councilmembers leveraged extended discussion on this development to bring attention to focus areas for future discussions.
Borgens acknowledged the complexity in
balancing the housing needs of Redwood
Citys diverse population.
I love hearing that our seniors want to
downsize and move to Redwood City and I
want to make that possible, she said.

towns historical feel.
I would like for us to make sure that
those developments that we are approving
are complementary to our history, she
said, referring to the projects size and
design. I dont think this is that.
Communication
For Vice Mayor Ian Bain, the obstacles
encountered with the 603 Jefferson project
plan offered an opportunity for improved
communication between developers, city
councilmembers and members of the community so that proposed projects reflect a
wide array of community needs. He also
implored future developers to consider
including below-market units in new residential projects as an alternative to contributing to the affordable housing impact
fee.
We need your help, he said. Its not
enough to pay in-lieu fees.

Bruno after working as a teacher for
five years in the San Bruno Park
Elementary School District.
He transitioned from his counseling
role to become the assistant principal
at Aragon High School, before being
named principal of Burlingame High
School, where he stayed for 15 years.
Though he has spent a majority of
his time in education as an administrator, Teshara said he has always considered himself a teacher.
Everyone at a school is a teacher,
because kids are modeling, observing
and watching everything we do all the
time, he said. Even when you wish
they wouldnt.
Seeing Teshara practice his craft as
the head of a school is akin to witnessing a master of his element, weaving
through crowds of students between
classes and teachers greeting each
individually and frequently offering a
gentle ribbing or joke.
A personal touch is integral to making a good educator, said Teshara, who
said the defining characteristic of the
most qualified teachers is the ability to
be earnest and up-front with students.
The commonality is authenticity,
he said. If you present yourself as an
authentic adult, students and young
people will react to it.
A healthy sense of humor helps too,
he said.

FRANKFURT, Germany
Booming business in China
helped push Volkswagen to a 3.8
percent sales increase in 2016
despite lawsuits and criminal
investigations over its cars that
cheated on emissions tests.
Volkswagen sold 10.31 million
cars across all of the companys
brands, which include Audi,
Porsche and Skoda. Sales in China
grew 12.2 percent for the full year,
to 3.98 million.
The
results
strengthened
Volkswagens bid for the title of
worlds largest carmaker against
the sales leader from 2015,
Toyota.
The Japanese automaker led with
10. 15 million, followed by
Volkswagen with 9.93 million and
U.S.-based General Motors with
9.8 million.
Volkswagen was helped by a
strong December. Global sales
jumped 11.8 percent during the
month, with stellar growth of
18.6 percent in China, the companys biggest single market.
Volkswagen has agreed to a $15
billion settlement with U. S.
authorities and car buyers, but is
still solving its legal issues. It has
a criminal penalty pending and an
executive formerly responsible for
28
