LOS ANGELES – As we honor our military service members on Veterans Day, Attorney General Kamala D. Harris today issued a consumer alert to Californians regarding scams targeting seniors who served in the military and their survivors. These scams have been reported to the California Department of Justice’s Public Inquiry Unit.

“California’s veterans have made extraordinary sacrifices to keep our nation safe and uphold our most sacred values and freedoms,” said Attorney General Harris. “Sadly, many of our senior veterans are being targeted by scam artists seeking to take advantage of them for a quick profit. My office will continue to protect our veterans and ensure that predators who seek to profit from their service are held accountable.”

These reported “pension poaching” scams prey on veterans and target the financial assistance offered through the Veterans Administration Aid and Attendance Program, which provides pension benefits to financially disadvantaged wartime veterans and their survivors over 65 years of age.

Specifically, pension poaching scams involve unscrupulous insurance agents and their representatives posing as unpaid volunteers or accredited VA representatives who offer to help seniors apply for VA pension benefits. These insurance agents and their representatives lure seniors into buying an annuity or setting up an irrevocable trust to create a false appearance of financial hardship by attempting to conceal the senior’s assets.

Insurance agents and their representatives charge high fees for these services, including undisclosed sales commissions that are paid to the purported volunteer. Targeted seniors may not be fully aware of the consequences of moving their assets into an annuity or irrevocable trust, such as strict withdrawal limitations leaving them without access to funds they may actually need for their care.

Although a VA pension benefits application based on false financial need may be successful, those who receive this benefit may face significant financial and legal consequences if the concealed funds are discovered, including repayment of benefit amounts received. Seniors who receive other VA or government-sponsored benefits that require disclosure of funds held in annuities and irrevocable trusts are especially vulnerable to reversal of their VA pension benefit.

WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR
The Attorney General offers California consumers the following tips to protect themselves from VA pension benefits poaching scams:
• Anyone who asks you to pay money or move assets in connection with applying for a VA pension benefit is likely not a VA-accredited representative. He or she may be an insurance agent or representative who receives a sales commission for selling you an annuity or irrevocable trust.
• Moving assets into an annuity or irrevocable trust could restrict your access to these funds and may have significant unintended tax or legal consequences that outweigh any financial benefit gained from receiving VA pension benefits.
• If you receive VA pension benefits based on false financial need, you could be required to repay any benefits received back to the government.

WHAT TO DO IF SOMEONE OFFERS TO HELP YOU APPLY FOR VA PENSION BENEFITS
If you are approached by someone offering to help you apply for VA pension benefits and you would incur any costs or fees in connection with the service being offered, contact your local VA to determine whether this assistance is reputable. Be wary of sharing personal information over the phone. VA representatives will tell you what you need to know and the advice is free.
A directory of VA centers is available at www.va.gov/directory/guide/vetcenter.asp.

HELPFUL RESOURCES
If you believe that you are a victim of a pension poaching scam and do meet the age, military service, and financial need requirements for a VA pension benefit, VA-accredited representatives including Veterans Service Organizations, agents, and attorneys are available to help you file a claim, free of charge.

You can also file a complaint with the California Department of Justice by visiting http://oag.ca.gov/contact/consumer-complaint-against-business-or-company.

A searchable list of VA-accredited representatives is available at www.va.gov/ogc/apps/accreditation/index.asp or call 1-800-827-1000.

California Department of Public Health (CDPH) State Public Health Officer Dr. Karen Smith today announced that CDPH has received the first report of an influenza-associated fatality in a person under the age of one year for the 2015-2016 flu season. The death occurred in Stanislaus County and serves as another somber reminder that influenza can cause serious illness or death.

“As California’s public health officer, I am saddened when the flu turns into loss of life,” Dr. Smith said. “It is especially troubling when a baby, too young to be vaccinated, passes away. To protect babies who cannot yet be vaccinated, we should get our flu shots. Preventing the spread of this often deadly disease is why getting vaccinated is so important.”

Young children less than a year of age are at increased risk of severe influenza. While children cannot be vaccinated for the flu until they are six months old, there are several ways to protect them. Pregnant women should get vaccinated. This will protect the mother and the newborn baby. Also, anyone who is around a young child or other high-risk person should be vaccinated to reduce the risk of spreading influenza. Overall influenza activity in California remains sporadic, but Dr. Smith points out that influenza viruses circulate at their peak levels from December through April.

"I urge you to be vaccinated now before the flu really spreads widely to protect yourself and those around you," said Dr. Smith.

Each year, flu causes millions of illnesses, hundreds of thousands of hospitalizations and thousands or sometimes tens of thousands of deaths in the United States. To reduce this threat, CDPH recommends the annual flu vaccine for everyone six months of age and older, including pregnant women.

Two of this season’s vaccine components, the influenza A (H3N2) and influenza B (Yamagata lineage) strains, have been updated to match the viruses Californians are likely to face during the 2015-2016 flu season.

Flu can cause severe disease across all ages. According to the California influenza surveillance report recently published, there were 78 influenza-associated deaths reported in persons under 65 years of age in California during the 2014-15 influenza season. Only deaths in persons under age 65 are reported to CDPH and many influenza-associated deaths are unrecognized. Therefore, the actual number of deaths due to influenza was much greater.

Common symptoms of the flu include fever or feeling feverish, a cough and/or sore throat, a runny or stuffy nose, chills, fatigue and body aches. Children may also have nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.

To stop the spread of flu and other respiratory illnesses, Californians should also:

• Stay home when sick
• Cover a cough or sneeze with a tissue and properly dispose of the used tissue
• Wash hands thoroughly with soap and warm water or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth

Dr. Smith encourages Californians to contact their health care provider, physician office, clinic or pharmacy about obtaining the flu vaccine. Some local health departments may also offer low- or no-cost flu immunizations.

Ventura County Sheriff's Department

A stabbing took the life of Fillmore resident Edgar Torres Monday night in the 900 block of Third Street, Fillmore. The call went out at approximately 9pm. Torres, a 2009 Fillmore High graduate, died from his wounds at the Ventura County Medical Center. There is no information on what led up to the altercation. No arrests have been made and investigators were still on scene Tuesday morning. A www.Gofundme.com site has been set up to help with funeral expenses.

Realtor Cindy Diaz-Telly warned “If the seller refuses (the inspection) it can cause an escrow to fail...it brings up red flags to the lenders” regarding the new Home Sale Ordinance.

An ordinance regarding home sale requirements has once again brought local realtors to the Fillmore City Council Meeting. They had shown up to the original scheduling of this item on October 27, 2015 but were not notified of the meeting's cancellation. The cancellation was a result of agenda not being made public in the legal timely manor. City Manager David Rowlands stated it was the responsibility of Patrick Maynard to post it, but there was some confusion on what the legal timely requirements were.

The new ordinance, Humane Living Standards Residential Inspection Program, has local realtors in strong opposition. A card mailer was sent out last week along with robo calls asking for the publics’ input on the ordinance.

The Council has changed the original ordinance draft and it now reflects that the housing inspection is voluntary. But realtor Cindy Diaz-Telly countered by saying the added red tape causes problems stating, "If the seller refuses (the inspection) it can cause an escrow to fail...it brings up red flags to the lenders." She continued stating she is already seeing pushback on sales and told the Council the realtors encouraged the council to work together with them, but that they did not reach out to the realtors before moving forward with the ordinance. She made the point that it was a code enforcement issue, not a real estate issue adding that real estate is the leading factor in economic recovery in Fillmore and this is harming that recovery.

Realtor Dennis Goldstein spoke of the data that was sent to the Council which showed percentages of homes now built and the percentages 35 years in the future and questioned, "How effective is this ordinance going to be?" He ended with saying there are may things a city can do such as code enforcement.

Real Estate Broker D.J. Ward VCCAR President told the Council, "We're encouraged to disclose" all issues related to the property and "the ordinance, although well intended, will create problems" financially with the sale. He explained that the buyers and sellers often negotiate the price when property needs improvements or changes, adding, "We feel it is a burdensome ordinance that is not in the best interest for a percentage of Fillmore."

Attorney Neal P. Maguire with Ferguson, Case, Orr, Peterson L.L.P. spoke of the problems with a Point of Sale Program such as the ordinance, stating that it often comes with incomplete reports especially with older homes and the cities often shift the problem to the homeowner when the problem should stay with the cities regarding the property history.

The ordinance states the City of Fillmore has 14 days to submit a report and Maguire felt that is too long, saying a two day period would be more appropriate and that there should be a penalty if the report is not given in a timely manor or the property sale should be allowed to move forward without it.

Fillmore Real Estate Broker Evaristo H. Barajas, who formerly served as Mayor of Fillmore, addressed the Council stating the "human living conditions" are unacceptable. "Fillmore has half the mean income of Ventura County....when on the Council we worked on making it easier for the people of Fillmore....have you thought about the people living in those homes?" He continued by informing the Council the vacancy rate in Fillmore is zero and that the Council should be thinking of ways to provide housing. "This is survival for some people...you're approaching it the wrong way...it's human survival."

City Manager Rowlands responded, "What's the right thing...what's the fair thing to do?" City Attorney Tiffany Israel was asked what experience her law firm has dealing with such ordinances and she responded the programs are a success.

Councilwoman Carrie Broggie thanked the realtors for their coming forward to speak and said that she realized it might be an inconvenience to the buyer and seller, but "it is a violation of the law" and the Council "can't turn a blind eye when they know what is going on."

Councilman Rick Neal stated he had heard from the public and they told him they were happy with the ordinance. He added that he agrees with having a shorter time to submit the reports to the seller, that it would be better than the 15 days the ordinance now requires, and that there should be some relief for the seller if it not done in a timely manor.

Councilwoman Diane McCall said she also spoke with the public on the ordinance and that not one person was in support of it. "I'm not for it.....it infringes on ownership rights....this is voluntary, so we're not accomplishing what we're trying to do." She continued that the City needs to step up code enforcement and she understood that is was well intentioned. "At what point do we draw the line...we don't have enough housing for people to live." McCall ended with, "If this were to be brought to the public for a vote it would be voted down."

Mayor Douglas Tucker stated that his interactions with the public regarding the ordinance was about half in favor and half opposed. Tucker then mentioned extreme conditions such as 20 people living in a one bedroom house and spoke of unethical realtors showing homes before the foreclosure process. He mentioned the Brown Act and its requirement for open public comments and that the discussions were helpful, "We've listened to the realtors, I think we've done a good job of listening....I think this ordinance does a good job."

McCall then interjected, "We haven't really spent a great deal of time on this, with what--three meetings? I would like a subcommittee to research the impact on the real estate market."

Neal responded he did not want a subcommittee, "I'm convinced how I feel about it...the robo calls and mailers were misleading."

Broggie said she sees it as a tryout with it having a sunset clause in 18 months which Tucker agreed saying "....the 18 months give time to see how well it works."

Neal asked to bring it to a vote, which ended with a 3-1 decision and McCall the only No vote (Council Member Manuel Minjares not in attendance).

Another item on the agenda was the proposed light signal on Highway 126 and Mountain View. It seems that for every plan check submitted to Caltrans a new item is required by the State. The plans have been submitted three times. This last time two additional items have been added that were not part of the original plans. A 140' retaining wall 5' high on the northeast corner along Hwy 126 which needs surveying, designing and a geotechnical report and will take approximately 8 weeks, is now required. This means they will not break ground until 2016.

Kelli Couse

After moving to Fillmore thirteen years ago I began volunteering in various community positions. When Mountain Vista Elementary opened in 2005 I assisted in forming the non-profit parent booster club. Our goal was to add books to the library, offer self esteem and anti bully training, provide art program and general support to encourage a positive school climate. In 2009 I received a Be The Change award for my participation in the school board Reconfiguration Committee. Working with Fillmore Middle School I volunteered my time where needed, including operating book fairs and chaperoning dances as well as attending the 2013 7th and 8th grade Washington D.C trip. My three daughters have attended Fillmore schools. Currently I have a freshman and a junior at Fillmore High. By serving on the school board I hope my insight as an involved parent will be of assistance in guiding the district.

Westbound traffic will be reduced to one lane during closure; eastbound traffic will not be impacted
Ventura, Calif. – On Monday, Nov. 9, the Ventura County Transportation Commission (VCTC) will close one westbound lane of Highway 126 near Hallock Drive in Santa Paula to make repairs to a railroad grade crossing.

During the closure, westbound traffic will be reduced to one lane. Drivers should expect delays.

VCTC’s contractor, J.A. Palcek Construction Co., will begin installing temporary traffic control devices and light towers at 6 p.m. on Nov. 9. One westbound lane of Highway 126 is expected to be fully closed from 7 p.m. on Nov. 9 through 9 a.m. on Nov. 10.

“We will partially close Highway 126 in order to make needed repairs to the Santa Paula Branch Line,” said Darren Kettle, executive director of VCTC. “By scheduling the closure during the nighttime hours, we hope to minimize the inconvenience to motorists and nearby businesses while ensuring the railroad crossing remains in safe, working condition.”

The Santa Paula Branch Line, owned by VCTC since 1995, is a stretch of railroad track running from east Ventura through Santa Paula, Fillmore and Piru to the Los Angeles County Line. It crosses Highway 126 just east of Santa Paula between Hallock Drive and Haun Creek. During the closure on Nov. 9-10, VCTC’s contractor will repair and replace a defective concrete railroad-crossing panel.

SACRAMENTO – California Department of Public Health (CDPH) State Public Health Officer Dr. Karen Smith today announced that CDPH has received the first report of an influenza-associated fatality in a person under age 65 for the 2015-2016 flu season. The death occurred in Santa Clara County and serves as a somber reminder that influenza can cause serious illness or death.

“As California’s public health officer, I am troubled when the flu turns into loss of life,” Dr. Smith said. “It doesn’t have to. That’s why I urge you to get your flu shot. By getting vaccinated, you can keep yourself healthy and stop the virus from spreading to others.”

Overall influenza activity in California remains sporadic, but Dr. Smith points out that influenza viruses circulate at their peak levels from December through April.

Our local Seneca oil company (Seneca Resources) invited a number of people to take part in a tour of its extensive Sespe oil fields above Fillmore, Tuesday. It was an eye-opening experience for me. The group of approximately 20 guests was treated to a fine lunch at the Oak Flat office. Thereafter, we toured the complete operations of the facility.

Site Operations Manager, Luke Faith, lifetime Fillmore resident, answered all questions concerning operations, and provided a great deal of information about the condor population in the refuge surrounding Seneca's area of operation. Those who are concerned about the welfare of this endangered species can rest assured that every effort is being made to care for these special birds.

I have never before seen an oil field whose roads, pads, and equipment could be described as pristine. It seems to me that Seneca cares for the birds as much as they do oil production.

Seneca has been an important partner in California's oil production for the past 25 years, although the Pennsylvania-based company is more than 100-years-old. The company' "fracking" activity is extraordinarily clean, precisely controlled, and has no geological connection with well water in the Santa Clara River Valley (Fillmore, Piru, and Santa Paula). All of its gas and oil production is processed and utilized in Ventura County.

Seneca is a great neighbor for Fillmore to have producing a vital resource.

Halloween is often recognized as a holiday that offers just as much fun for adults as it does for children. Youngsters may look forward to a night of trick-or-treating, but many adults choose to partake in the festivities, too – oftentimes with alcohol included. While Halloween may be a spooky night, the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) and California Highway Patrol (CHP) want to help ensure that it is also a safe one. If you plan on making alcohol a part of your celebrations this year, designating a sober driver or finding a safe ride home should be a top priority.

“Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs always presents serious, life-threatening risks, but even more so on a night when pedestrians and children are out trick-or-treating,” said OTS Director Rhonda Craft. “By taking just a few extra minutes to designate a sober driver, you will not only avoid the serious risk and costs associated with a DUI, but you will also help protect your own life and the lives of those around you.”

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, between 2009 and 2013, 43 percent of all traffic fatalities on Halloween night involved an impaired driver. In 2013 alone, 26 percent of all pedestrian fatalities on Halloween night involved an impaired driver.

“With Halloween falling on a weekend this year, we expect an increase in celebrations,” said CHP Commissioner Joe Farrow. “With a few simple precautions, you should be able to enjoy the fun and get home safely. Drive sober, avoid distractions behind the wheel, and be especially alert around pedestrians.”

Whether out trick-or-treating for the night or heading to a party, it is equally important for adults and children to take necessary safety precautions. For those walking door-to-door, consider using light producing or reflective devices to remain visible to cars. Only cross the street at crosswalks or corners and only when it is safe to do so. Costumes should be kept short enough to avoid tripping, and masks should be lifted or removed while on or crossing a street.

Drivers need to pay extra attention to pedestrians – especially small children - as they may be unaware of their surroundings and trick-or-treaters can appear out of nowhere. Party hosts need to be ready with non-alcoholic drinks, food, and the responsibility to make sure their guests get home safely.

The California Office of Traffic Safety wishes you a fun and safe Halloween. To keep up with the latest traffic safety information, be sure to follow us on Twitter at @OTS_CA or “like” us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/CaliforniaOTS. For more information on all OTS efforts, visit www.OTS.ca.gov.

At the October 20, 2015 Fillmore Unified School District (FUSD) Board Meeting an update was presented on the district's Program Improvement and the Board vacancy. Also, an action item was presented that was of great importance to Fillmore; the approval of Stefan Cvijanovich's designation to the Ventura County Adult Consortium (VCAEC) Assembly Bill 104 FUSD Representative.

This Consortium is the first step in bringing an Adult Education Program (AEP) to Fillmore. What makes this different from past Adult Education Programs is that past programs were completely controlled in Sacramento. But on March 1, 2014, the Chancellor of California Community Colleges and the State Department of Education submitted a joint report on the status of developing regional control across the state. This put VCAEC in control.

The goal of local control is to identify the underserved geographical areas or emerging gaps in regional programs of adult education. The consortium will develop common policies related to and affecting adult schools at local education agencies and community colleges, including fees and funding levels with the intent to expand and improve the provision of adult education.

There are a few AEP in Ventura County, but not enough to provide services to a changing demographic and workforce. AEP provides classes for adults over 18 in both occupational and academic.

Local public agencies considered stockholders in the future AEP are local departments and offices, particularly those with responsibility for public safety and social services; workforce investment boards, libraries and community-based organizations. FUSD Superintendent Dr. Adrian E. Palazuelos has reached out to the community, including Fillmore's Economic Development, to work on the future workforce needs, but received no volunteers.

The City of Fillmore has hired The Retail Coach to explore the development and retail needs of the town. The AEP could provide the workforce training for those future businesses. It would seem that the two have something in common.

An item discussed was FUSD's Program Improvement (PI) presented by Assistant Superintendent Martha Hernandez. Hernandez spoke of the change in testing to meet Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and to Illuninate Software that collects, organizes and analyzes student data. These changes require more time and data to give an accurate finding on what progress has or has not been made. But what data she could gather was presented. Hernandez stated there has been "no advancing or retreating......(but) making steady progress." She informed the Board that it would take one more Smarter Balance Assessment Testing (the testing required for CCSS) to give a proper assessment on where the District is regarding PI.

It was announced that there was only one applicant submitted for the vacant FUSD Board Members seat. The applicant will be interviewed in the next few days.

Associated Student Body Representative/Speaker of the House Hannah Wishart informed the Board students are getting ready for the renaissance rally which announces the top 10 GPA's in each class and working on next week's Red Ribbon dress-up days. Also, the senior class is currently preparing for the Annual Senior Ball which takes place Saturday, October 31, 2015.
