Decision day arrives for Brisbane Baylands

Council set to float proposal to voters, despite lack of consensus
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The moment of truth arrives for a
transformative development proposed
along the Baylands, as Brisbane offi-
cials will weigh floating a ballot
measure allowing voters to decide the
massive mixed-use project’s fate.
The Brisbane City Council is
expected Thursday, July 19, to consid-
er certifying the final environmental
review and general plan amendment
clearing the way for the project, while
also calling an election this fall.
But as the pivotal choice approaches
after years of deliberation, there
remains no consensus over Universal
Paragon Corporation’s interest in
building as much as 7 million square
feet of commercial space and up to
2,200 residential units in the north-
western corner of the 684-acre area
along the Bayshore.
Housing advocates claim the project
is a prime opportunity to combat the
regional affordability crisis while
many Brisbane residents harbor deep
concerns regarding the impacts and
health hazards presented by building
on a former landfill.

Greystar development takes shape
Company presents updated project plans before it formally submits them in August
By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Developer Greystar shared the
latest plans for its massive mixed-
use proposal spanning six blocks
in Redwood City at a couple of
community meetings on Tuesday,
July 17.
The updated plans are based on
input from residents at two work-
shops held in May, various one-
on-one conversations and a sur-
vey. Greystar Senior Development
Director Jonathan Fearn and
Development Manager Troy
Vernon said at the meeting that the
community seems especially
interested in a variety of open
spaces, family-friendly entertain-
ment, child care facilities and the
preservation of the Main and Elm
restaurant and dog park. They said
many residents have also called
for a diversity of architectural
styles for the development so that
it doesn’t feel like a uniform cam-
pus.
The proposed development sits
on an 8.3-acre site between El
Camino Real and the Caltrain
tracks, a short walk from down-
town. It entails six buildings, five
for offices and one containing 272
residential units for rent, 60 of
which are affordable. Office space
will total 580,000 square feet,
retail will span 10,000 square feet
and a public child care center will
occupy 10,000 square feet.
Each of the five parcels will
have two or more levels of under-
ground parking, totaling 2,034
private parking spaces. But Fearn
Artist’s rendering of Greystar’s six-block mixed-use proposal in Redwood City.
said Greystar will be negotiating
with the city to build fewer spots
for the office component than nor-
mally required.
Its initial application was met
with some concern over the
amount of information provided
before word got out about the
development proposal. Greystar
initially submitted its application
to the city in January and is set to
resubmit an updated one in August.
The company is not requesting
any amendments to the city’s gen-
eral plan.
If approved, the project could be
LOCAL
complete by 2023. The environ-
mental review phase could wrap up
by late next year, and then con-
struction on all six buildings
would commence at once and take
two to three years.
In addition to the Main and Elm
restaurant, the project site is cur-
rently home to Hopkins Acura and
Ford car dealerships, several small
car wash and detailing companies
and warehouses. It’s also home to
a city-owned building with 23
below-market-rate units, three of
which are occupied, Fearn said,
adding that those units will be
included in the development and
no one will be displaced. He also
said Greystar is currently in con-
versations with Main and Elm
about returning the restaurant to
the site.
The proposal includes 11,000
square feet for “active uses” and
Vernon said the goal is to have
activity in the area from 8 a.m. to
8 p.m. while the center of the site
could be closed off for community
events.
Lathrop Street appears to be the
favorite for a pedestrian and bike-
friendly corridor that will still be
THE DAILY JOURNAL
accessible to cars. A series of
small parks and gathering spaces
will line the street and a larger,
16, 000-square-foot park will
occupy the southeast tip of the
site between Main and Chestnuts
streets. Ben Mickus, an architect
with WRNS studio, described that
space as an overflow for the often-
packed Courthouse Square.
There will be a community gar-
den on Maple Street and creekside
walking path adjacent to El
Camino Real. That stretch of El
Camino Real will also see an
upgrade in the form of street trees
and wider sidewalks.
In addition to keeping the dog
park as is, Greystar is planning to
build a café kiosk next to it, an
especially popular idea with dog
walkers. The developer is also
planning to maintain an old shed
that has historic value for some
residents, and surround it with
open space.
As for architecture, Mickus said
the goal is to give each building a
distinct identity while maintain-
ing a sense of unity across the
development. Referencing the
industrial warehouses on site, he
said the style of the new buildings
would be a “memory of what was
there.”
“We thought long and hard about
how we can make a set of build-
ings look different from each
other and also connect them to a
place, connect them to Redwood
City and its history and also what
it wants to be today and tomor-
row,” he said.

Flames and smoke rise from a treeline in Mariposa County.
Storms, dead trees hinder
firefighting near Yosemite
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MARIPOSA — A deadly forest fire kept
spreading Wednesday west of Yosemite
National Park, and erratic winds and trees
killed by a historic California drought are
expected to pose more problems for fire-
fighters, officials said.
The blaze between the park and the town
of Mariposa that’s popular with visitors has
scorched 27 square miles of dry brush and
timber and is largely burning out of control,
said Richard Eagan, a spokesman with the
California Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection.
Forecasters expect thunderstorms

winds that can be dangerous for more than

that started Friday. Another concern is thou-
sands of trees killed by a yearslong drought.
“Dead trees are everywhere, north and
south of the state, and when you add strong
winds that can send ambers flying up to 5
miles, it can pose a huge risk for firefight-
ers,” Eagan said.
The flames have shut down Highway 140,
a key route into the park, during tourist sea-
son and forced evacuations in nearby com-
munities. But three other park entrances
were open, as were trails, campgrounds,
restaurants and lodges, though smoke is
polluting the air and limiting visibility.
Smoke from the fire about 4 miles from
the park’s west entrance may be heavy at
times, and visitors should be prepared to
limit heavy outdoor activity when air quali-
ty is poor, park officials said.
Lyft beefing up its background
checks after latest driver arrest
By Paul Elias
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Ride-hailing com-
pany Lyft said Wednesday that it’s beefing
up its background checks after a driver
arrested for rape was found to be in the
United States illegally.
The company’s “enhanced detection
processes” will apply to new applicants
and existing drivers, Lyft spokeswoman
Kate Margolis said. She declined to discuss
the changes in detail.
San Francisco Police arrested San Mateo
resident Orlando Vilchez Lazo, 36, last
week and charged him with raping four
women who he lured to his car pretending
to be their rideshare driver. The company
fired Vilchez Lazo on Friday, Margolis
said.
Margolis and police investigators said
there’s no evidence Vilchez Lazo was on
duty when the attacks occurred.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement agency said Vilchez

Buyers worry they’ll lose tax credit while waiting on Tesla
By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — In March of 2016, Keith
Reynolds flew from California to Atlanta
so he could claim his spot in line at 4 a.m.,
and get a three-hour head start on his West
Coast competitors.
Tesla was taking $1,000 deposits for its
new electric car, the Model 3, priced start-
ing at $35,000. And Reynolds had to have
one. He managed to land near the top of the
waiting list.
Flash forward more than two years,
through much-publicized production
delays. Reynolds is still waiting.
And now, like others in the U.S. on a
waiting list of about 420,000 worldwide,
he worries that the looming phaseout of a
$7,500 federal tax credit will put the cost of
the car out of his reach.
“The tax credit was going to be huge,”
says Reynolds, 45, who works in digital
advertising, lives in Laguna Hills,
California, and drives a 9-year-old Audi A3
compact car.
Last week, Tesla sales hit 200,000 since
the start of 2010 — the point at which fed-
eral law requires the credit for rechargeable
electric vehicles to be phased out. Tesla
buyers will continue to get the full credit
through the end of the year. Then it drops to
$3,750 for six months and $1,875 for
another six months before ending entirely
on Dec. 31, 2019.

A Tesla car ‘Model S’ sits in a dealership.
That means buyers need to be behind the
wheel of a new Tesla by the end of the year
to get the full $7,500 tax break — essen-
tially a 21 percent discount off the base
model’s sticker price.
Many Model 3 customers will tire of
waiting and drop out, predicted Dave
Sullivan, manager of product analysis at

sulting firm. “By then they will have been

Tesla wouldn’t comment on the possibil-
ity of losing buyers from the waiting list.
But if buyers bail, it could put the compa-
ny’s future in peril, costing sales and des-
perately needed cash flow for Tesla at a crit-
ical time in its 15-year history. Tesla is
using the Model 3 to move from a niche
maker of expensive electric cars for the
wealthy to an automaker for the masses.
Margrethe Vestager said “companies must
compete on their merits,” playing by rules
that favor consumers and open markets, and
not restrict competition.
Google immediately responded that it
would appeal. “Android has created more
choice for everyone, not less,” said compa-
ny spokesman Al Verney.
The EU’s fine, which caps a three-year
investigation, is the biggest ever imposed

ior.

Musk has promised to turn a profit in the
second half of this year, but Tesla has lost
money in all but two quarters in its eight
years as a public company. In the first three
months of this year it burned $1 billion as
it ramped up Model 3 production at a
Fremont factory. The company had $2.7
billion in cash at the end of March.
In March, Moody’s Investor Service
sounded an alarm, downgrading Tesla’s debt
into junk territory and warning that it
won’t have cash to cover $3.7 billion for
normal operations, capital expenses and
debt that comes due early next year. Tesla
has said Model 3 sales will generate cash
and drive profits.
Musk began sleeping at the factory in an
effort to fix automation and other problems
that much of the year held output to around
half of the goal he set last summer of 5,000
Model 3s per week. The company built a
heavy-duty tent to add space to make more
Model 3s and said it reached 5,000 per week
at the end of June.
Like many of those still on the waiting
list, Reynolds wants to order a Model 3
priced closer to the $35,000 base. The
cheapest version only comes in black,
with other colors costing at least $1,000
more.
At present, Tesla is selling only pricier
versions with longer-range battery packs.
The last time Reynolds configured one on
Tesla’s website, the lowest price was
$49,000, beyond what he can afford.
$9.4 billion in profit in the first three
months of the year and reportedly had over
$100 billion in cash reserves.
In June last year, regulators already fined
Google 2.42 billion euros ($2.8 billion)
for favoring its shopping listings in search
results.
But the EU’s insistence that Google
change its practices could have a bigger
impact than the fine itself.
“The important thing is not to be dis-
tracted by the size of the fine, what is
important is that Google has to change its
abusive behavior,” Rich Stables, CEO of
the rival search engine Kelkoo, told the
Associated Press.

Trump-Kim statement
overpromised on the
return of war remains
By Robert Burns
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — More than a month after
North Korea pledged to immediately return
some American war dead, the promise is
unfulfilled.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who
traveled to Pyongyang this month to press
the North Koreans further, said Wednesday
the return could begin “in the next couple of
weeks.” But it could take months or years to
positively identify the bones as those of
specific American servicemen.
In a joint statement at their Singapore
summit, President Donald Trump and North
Korean leader Kim Jong Un committed to
recovering the remains of prisoners of war
and those missing in action decades after the
Korean War — “including the immediate
repatriation of those already identified.”
That was more than a month ago, on June
12. Although Trump said eight days later
that the repatriation had happened, it had
not. It still has not. So, it was not “immedi-
ate,” though the Stars and Stripes newspa-
per reported from South Korea on Tuesday
that the North has agreed to transfer as many
as 55 sets of remains next week. The
Pentagon and the State Department declined
NATION
REUTERS
to comment on any specifics promised by
the North.
“We’re making progress along the border
to get the return of remains, a very impor-
tant issue for those families,” Pompeo said
Wednesday at the White House. “I think in
the next couple of weeks we’ll have the first
remains returned, that’s the commitment, so
progress certainly being made there.”
Likely also to prove untrue is the part of
the Trump-Kim statement that said the North
had war remains “already identified. ” It
apparently has bones and perhaps associat-
ed personal effects, but history shows that
any remains handed over by the North are
likely to be difficult to identify. In recent
days the State Department has changed that
phrase to “already collected,” suggesting it
realized the remains have not been identi-
fied.
“There are no missing Americans who
have been ‘already identified’ by the DPRK
(North Korea) to be repatriated,” says Paul
Cole, who has researched POW-MIA issues
from the Korean War for decades and served
for four years as a scientific fellow at the
Pentagon’s Central Identification
Laboratory in Hawaii. He said this element
of the Singapore statement “reflects a near
total ignorance of the role of science” in
accounting for war dead.
Frustrated U.S. lawmakers
threaten action on tariffs
By Kevin Ferking
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Lawmakers are losing
patience with the Trump administration’s
reliance on tariffs to win trade disputes and
are talking increasingly about legislative
action to protect U.S. jobs.
A senior Republican senator has threat-
ened legislation to curb President Donald
Trump’s trade actions, and other senators
joined him on Wednesday in promising a
complementary bill. Meanwhile, lawmak-
ers are using congressional hearings to put
the spotlight on the economic fallout for
local farmers and businesses.
The prospects for any votes on trade leg-
islation before the August recess are dim.
Still, lawmakers appear to be putting the
Trump administration on notice.
Sen. Orrin Hatch, the Republican chair-
man of the Senate Finance Committee, said
that if the administration continues “with
its misguided and reckless reliance on tar-
iffs,” he’ll push for legislation. He said he’s
discussing options with colleagues now.
Hatch has been a critic of the administra-
tion’s imposition of tariffs but has so far
focused on working behind the scenes to
influence the White House. His speech on
the Senate floor served as a pointed warning
to the administration not to move forward
with tariffs on imported vehicles and auto
parts on the grounds that they pose a threat

Americans accused by the Kremlin of

Even as the White House said the offer,
made by Putin to President Donald Trump at
their summit in Helsinki on Monday, was
under consideration, the State Department
called Russia’s allegations against the
Americans “absurd,” suggesting that any

Sen. Doug Jones, D-
Ala. , and Sen. Lamar
Alexander, R-Tenn., fol-
lowed his cue. They said
the president’s proposed
auto tariffs threaten tens
of thousands of jobs in
Orrin Hatch the South, where foreign
automakers have invest-
ed heavily in recent decades.
They announced on the Senate floor
Wednesday that they’ll introduce legisla-
tion as soon as next week that would freeze
the Commerce Department’s investigation
into whether auto imports present a nation-
al security threat. The bill would halt the
Commerce Department probe while the
International Trade Commission conducts a
study.
Alexander urged Trump to reconsider his
trade policy and “drop the tariffs.”
“These tariffs are dangerous. These tariffs
are going to cost us jobs. These tariffs are
going to lower our family incomes, ”
Alexander said.
While Jones and Alexander went to bat for
auto manufacturers in their state, lawmakers
from farm country sought to highlight con-
cerns that retaliatory tariffs will dry up
export markets as consumers in China,
Europe and other places look elsewhere to
buy soybeans, pork and other farm goods.

questioning of them would not be counte-
nanced by the U.S. The Russian claims
against the Americans, including former
U. S. Ambassador to Russia Michael
McFaul, relate to allegations of fraud and
corruption.
“The overall assertions that have come
out of the Russian government are absolute-
ly absurd: the fact that they want to question
11 American citizens and the assertions that
the Russian government is making about
those American citizens,” spokeswoman
Heather Nauert told reporters.

Dems struggle over Trump, ‘treason’
By Laurie Kellman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Democrats are happy to
say President Donald Trump undermined
American democracy. That he patted Vladimir
Putin on the back for interfering in U.S. elec-
tions. That he’s being blackmailed by
Russia.
But that he committed treason? That’s too
far for some leading Democrats worried about
sending the wrong message during an elec-
tion year.
“The bottom line is, different people will
characterize it differently,” Senate
Democratic leader Chuck Schumer told
reporters this week of Trump’s conduct toward
Russia. He slammed Trump in every way but

WASHINGTON — President Donald

His toughness with the longtime

Historians say Trump
upends the norms of
presidential behavior
By Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HELSINKI — Plenty of U.S. presidents have created com-
motion in their travels abroad, but none as much as
President Donald Trump. The president’s tumultuous trip
across Europe, historians say, smashed the conventions of
American leaders on the world stage.
Trump’s “America first” approach to foreign policy had
him seeming to accept the word of a hostile power over his
own intelligence agencies, insulting allies and sowing
doubts about his commitment to the NATO alliance.
“We’ve never had a president go abroad and not only lec-
ture to our NATO allies, but also to embarrass them,” said
Russia expert William Pomeranz, deputy director of the
Kennan Institute at the Wilson Center. “We’ve never had our
president go on a foreign tour and categorize our allies as
foes. And we’ve never had our president hold a joint news
conference with a Russian leader where he assigned blame,
from his perspective, to both parties, but in fact dedicated
most of his time to blaming the U.S. Justice Department
and intelligence services.”
REUTERS
While past presidents have had difficult foreign trips and
been criticized for their summits with Soviet leaders,
Trump’s behavior has few parallels, in the view of presi-
dential historians and longtime Russia watchers.
Franklin Roosevelt was accused of “selling out” to
Joseph Stalin at the Yalta Conference in 1945; John F.
Kennedy and his aides admitted that he’d been unprepared
for his 1961 Vienna summit with Nikita Khrushchev; the
Reykjavik summit between Ronald Reagan and Mikhail

Stocks rise on airlines, railroads and banks
By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Big gains for
banks and transportation compa-
nies like airlines and railroads
took U.S. stock indexes slightly
higher Wednesday. Other parts of
the market didn’t move much.
United Continental had its best
day in two years after it said
strong demand is resulting in
higher ticket prices, while rail-
road company CSX said it’s still
cutting costs and improving oper-
ations. Their competitors also
jumped.
Banks and other financial com-
panies got a boost from strong
second-quarter results, and Warren
Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway
made its biggest gain in almost
seven years after it loosened its
rules on stock buybacks.
Brad McMillan, chief invest-

spending, rising business invest-

likely to lead to another quarter of
strong earnings growth.

Pacifica All-Stars fall short in Section 3 final

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
FREMONT — After suffering a 7-5 loss to
Granada-Livermore in the first round of the
Section 3 tournament, the Pacifica
American 9-10 All-Stars went on an offen-
sive tear.
Playing through the consolation bracket,
Pacifica put a 18-3 whipping on Warm
Springs-Fremont and added a 10-5 win over
Union City American to move into the
championship round.
Facing Granada for the second time in the
tournament Tuesday, Pacifica put a 8-0 drub-
bing on it to force a winner-take-all finale
in the rubber match between the two teams
Wednesday.
Unfortunately for Pacifica American, its
offense dried up against Granada the third
time around. Granada struggled to score as
well, but got a sun-aided, two-run double in
the bottom of the fifth inning to take the
title with a 2-0 victory at Vallejo Mills
Elementary School in Fremont Wednesday.
“Both teams competed at a high level,”
said Pacifica manager Scott Nemes. “They
(Granada) got two (runners) where they
needed to be (across home plate).”
Granada started its rally with a walk by
pinch-hitter Lane Curtin. He stole second
and went to third on a passed ball. Marasco
drew a two-out walk and stole second to put
two in scoring position. Granada cleanup
hitter Cole Cainey came to the plate and
jumped on the first pitch of Pacifica starter
Jason Balmy, hitting a line drive to the
right-center field gap.
Pacifica center fielder DJ Delaney got to
the ball in plenty of time, but he was look-
ing directly into the late-afternoon sun and
was blinded at the last second as the ball
skipped past him for a two-run double.
“That’s how it goes sometimes,” Nemes
said.

Return to Manny-wood
Coveted All-Star SS
Machado traded to
L.A. for 5 prospects
By Ben Walker and David Ginsburg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Los Angeles Dodgers won the Manny
Machado sweepstakes, getting the prized
All-Star shortstop from the Baltimore
Orioles in a trade Wednesday night.
The Orioles received five prospects: out-
fielder Yusniel Diaz, right-hander Dean
Kremer, third baseman Rylan Bannon, righty
Zach Pop and third baseman Breyvic Valera.
Machado, a 26-year-old power hitter with
extraordinary fielding skills, greatly
improves the Dodgers’ chances of reaching
the World Series for a second consecutive
year. He led Baltimore in batting average
(.315), home runs (24) and RBIs (65).
Machado is expected to be introduced in
Milwaukee on Friday before the Dodgers
open a series against the Brewers.
Machado’s contract expires at the end of the
season, and the last-place Orioles decided
against negotiating an expensive, multi-year
extension because they have too many holes
as the team moves into a rebuilding mode.
“We tried to maintain a competitive club
this year, and that’s why we resisted the
offers we had in the offseason to trade
Manny,” Dan Duquette, the Orioles’ execu-
tive vice president of baseball operations,
said Wednesday night. “But when it became
obvious that it was time to look to the
future, trading Manny is the first step in the
plan to rebuild our ballclub.”
Though only a summer rental, Machado
was coveted by a variety of contenders,
including Philadelphia, Milwaukee, the
Chicago Cubs and Arizona, currently a half-
game behind the first-place Dodgers in the
NL West.
“We liked the depth of the Dodger pack-

could fill my soccer void left by
the end of soccer’s World Cup. But
then my wife reminded me of our weekend
plans. There is another World Cup being
contested and it starts Friday afternoon at

And this tourna-
ment won’t take a

fact, it will only take
three days as the

World Cup. Much like
the FIFA World Cup
and the Olympics, the
Rugby Sevens World
Cup is contested every four years, with the
top 24 teams in the world participating.
Unlike soccer, the United States is a
player in the world of rugby sevens —
which, unlike the 15-man game, features
only seven-a-side in matches that last
less than 20 minutes. The USA Eagles are
ranked No. 5 in the world and are coming
off their biggest tournament win when
they captured the Las Vegas leg of the 10-

The Americans feature not only a pair
of local products — Pacifica’s Danny
Barnett and East Palo Alto’s Folau Niua
— but also the reigning World Rugby
Men’s Sevens Player of the Year in Perry
Baker and the 2017-18 try-scoring leader

Chris Tierney, who recorded career highs with 17 goals and 23
assists last season, re-signed with the Sharks Wednesday.
Tierney re-signs with
Sharks for two years
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — Forward Chris Tierney has re-signed with the
San Jose Sharks following a season in which he set career highs
in nearly every major statistical category. The Sharks did not
disclose the terms of the two-year deal announced Wednesday.
“Chris had his best season as a professional last year and
stepped up his level of play in multiple areas,” general man-
ager Doug Wilson said. “We’ve always known he was a
responsible, defensive-minded player, but he took his
offensive game to the next tier and showed that he can be a
productive player in all three zones.”
The 24-year-old Tierney recorded 17 goals and 23 assists last
season and was one of only three players to play in all 82 games
with the Sharks. He ranked fifth on the team in goals and tied for
fifth in points. He had two assists in 10 playoff games.
NFL brief
Titans’ Casey says he will still protest during anthem
Tennessee Titans defensive lineman Jurrell Casey says he
plans to protest during the national anthem this season,
even if it means getting a fine.
Casey tells CNN that “I’m going to take a fine this year,
why not? I’m going to protest during the flag. That’s what
I’m going to say now.”
Titans officials had no immediate response.
The NFL approved a policy in May allowing players to
protest during the national anthem by staying in the locker
room but forbidding them from sitting or taking a knee if
they’re on the field.

More claims mean concussion
payout could jump by $400M
By Claudia Lauer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — Lawyers repre-
senting former NFL players estimated
Wednesday that payouts from the con-
cussion settlement with the league will
top $1.4 billion, a $400 million jump
because of thousands more players fil-
ing claims.
The number of players who filed to
be a part of the settlement is outpacing
all previous estimates and could keep
growing, the lawyers said in a federal
court filing based on estimates from an
actuary. The estimate accounts for
players who have filed claims and
those who have officially given notice
that they intend to file claims.
The actuary said participation rates
are 21 percent higher than estimated
when the settlement was reached. As of
July 16,499 claims totaling more than
$485 million had been approved,
according to the filing.
The massive increase in estimated
payout came the same day a judge
denied a request from the league to
appoint a special investigator to look
into what the league said are extensive
fraudulent claims against the settle-
ment fund.

al court ruling that the league’s attor-

cover guy for Madden NFL 19 and
Madden NFL Overdrive. The game will

“To be on the cover is a real honor

“sufficient evidence of probable fraud
to warrant serious concern.” But Brody
said a special master and a claims
administrator have effectively ferreted
out those claims for now.
“The audit process is working effec-
tively,” Brody wrote in her deferral rul-
ing, saying if the claims administrator
or special master notify the court an
investigator is needed, “the Court will
rule on the motion at that time.”
The league requested an investigator
and cited in its May argument an inde-
pendent study it said found more than
400 claims recommended for denial
based on evidence of fraud by attor-
neys, doctors and former players
attempting to cheat the program. The
league has said those attempts to scam
the $1 billion settlement fund have
slowed down the awarding of valid
claims.
The settlement, which took effect
January 2017, resolved thousands of
lawsuits that accused the NFL of hiding
what it knew about the risks of repeat-
ed concussions.
It covers retired players who develop
Lou Gehrig’s disease, dementia or other
neurological problems believed to be
caused by concussions suffered during
their pro careers, with awards as high as

or other places. They also cited a doc-
tor who said she spent seven to 12
hours evaluating each patient, but
approved sometimes as many as eight
patients a day.
A lawyer for several plaintiffs said
Wednesday that he and others repre-
senting the players supported Brody’s
decision.
“Since the NFL filed its motion more
than three months ago, the claims
process has continued to accelerate and
the current audit process is working
effectively,” said Chris Seeger, co-lead
counsel for the retired players. “We
will not allow a small number of
potentially fraudulent claims to be
used as an excuse by the NFL to deny
payment to legitimately injured for-
mer players.”
In their May arguments, Seeger and
other attorneys noted that the
instances of fraudulent claims would be

rules for claims went into effect,
including a list of approved physicians
to determine eligibility.

claims are promptly paid.

fans, too.
Brown was a sixth-round draft pick
(195th overall) in 2010 from Central
Michigan, not exactly a college
power. He barely got on the field as a
rookie, yet by 2011 he was gaining
1,108 yards as Ben Roethlisberger’s
favorite new target.
From there, Brown has been virtual-
ly unstoppable, averaging just under
1,570 yards in receptions, with 52
touchdowns in the last five years. He’s
also a dynamic punt returner.
“There’s a lot of milestones athletes
dream of,” he says, “and after being
inducted into the Madden 99 Club ear-
lier this year, and now appearing on
the cover of this year’s games, it’s
clear that business is not just boom-

greatest with these honors.”

player we feel is a gifted hitter,” Duquette
said. “We felt he was clearly the best player

was the key to the trade. But the other play-
ers in the trade are also very talented.”
The 21-year-old Diaz hit two home runs in
the All-Star Futures Game
last weekend. He’s hit-
ting . 314 with a . 905

RBIs and 36 runs scored

Machado Los Angeles gets a
four-time AL All-Star with two Gold Gloves
who has 129 homers over the last 3 1/2 sea-
sons. Machado was drafted third overall by
the Orioles in 2010, made his big league
debut in 2012 and spent his entire major
league career in Baltimore.
“Obviously, it’s a bittersweet day for our
organization,” Duquette said. “We watched
Manny grow up in our franchise the past eight
years. We all know what an exceptional talent
he is, from the great plays that he made to his

Contenders looking for hitters
have options besides Machado
By Rob Maaddi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Manny Machado will be wearing a new
uniform when he plays his next game, and
other hitters will be on the move in the
next couple weeks.
Even after Machado was traded to the Los
Angeles Dodgers, teams seeking to boost
their offense will have several options to
land a big bat.
Mike Moustakas, 3B, Royals
After smacking a career-best 38 homers
for the Kansas City Royals last year, the
two-time All-Star third baseman didn’t get a
lucrative deal in free agency and returned on
a one-year deal for $6.5 million plus a
mutual option for 2019. He has 19 homers
and 58 RBIs but is only batting .249 for
the worst team in the majors.
Scooter Gennett, 2B, Reds
The Cincinnati Reds aren’t going any-
where and they’d be selling high on their
All-Star second baseman. Gennett, a waiver
claim last year, had a breakout season in
2017 when he swatted 27 homers and drove
in 97 runs. He’s batting .326 with 16
homers and 63 RBIs this season. Gennett is
a fan favorite in his hometown and can’t
become a free agent until 2020, so prying
him away from the Reds might be difficult.
Asdrubal Cabrera, 2B, Mets
The 32-year-old infielder is batting .281
with 17 homers and 52 RBIs for the hapless
New York Mets. He’s only played second
best player out of me.”
Chris Taylor has been playing shortstop
for the Dodgers, but his numbers are down
from last season. With Machado at short,
the Dodgers could move Taylor to second
base this season but started at shortstop
and third base last year. Cabrera is a switch
hitter who would give a team versatility and
pop. The two-time All-Star is also slated to
become a free agent after the season.
Shin-Soo Choo, OF, Rangers
A first-time All-Star, Choo has 18
homers and is on pace to hit a career-best
30 for the last-place Texas Rangers. Choo
is batting .291 with a .405 on-base per-
centage, but the left-handed-hitting right
fielder just turned 36 and is owed $42 mil-
lion over the next two seasons.
Eduardo Escobar, IF, Twins
The versatile infielder has a .271 aver-
age, 14 homers and 57 RBIs with 35 dou-
bles for the Minnesota Twins. Escobar can
play shortstop, second base or third base,
plus he’s started in left field during his
career. He’s making $4.85 million this sea-
son and will be a free agent in the fall.
Nick Castellanos, OF, Tigers
He’s having another strong season for
the Detroit Tigers after hitting 26 homers
and knocking in 101 runs last year. The 26-
year-old right fielder is batting .305 with
15 homers and 56 RBIs and is under team
control for another season.
Josh Donaldson, 3B, Blue Jays
The 2015 AL MVP is struggling through
an injury-riddled season and has only
played 36 games, but he averaged 35
homers and 100 RBIs between 2014-17 and
is entering free agency after the season.

MLB swinging
for the fences
By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Boom or bust. This is
what baseball has become — and that has
owners worried.
“It’s just kind of what it is: home runs and
strikeouts,” Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher
Ross Stripling said.
Stripling had just given up 10th-inning
home runs on consecu-
tive pitches to Houston’s
Alex Bregman and
George Springer on a
night players combined
for 10 longballs , nearly
double the previous All-
Star record.
Last fall, you may
Alex Bregman remember, the Dodgers
and Astros totaled 25
home runs in the World Series , four more than
had ever been hit before in a Fall Classic.
“It’s extremely tough to manufacture hits
these days, especially with the shift, ”
Stripling said after the American League’s 8-
6 win Tuesday night. “I certainly understand
that’s where the game’s going, and so I
think this game encapsulated that.”
It took until the 344th pitch for a run to be
driven in on something other than a homer,
Michael Brantley’s tack-on sacrifice fly
that boosted the AL’s lead to 8-5. Joey Votto
added the final home run in the bottom half,
four more than the previous All-Star mark.
“Everybody’s throwing 97 to 100, ”
Washington ace Max Scherzer, the NL
starter, said in a reference to pitch velocity.
“You’re not going to string three hits
together like that. So everybody’s just
swinging for the fence.”

British rider Geraint Thomas won the first
summit finish of the race and claimed the yel-
low jersey on Wednesday while four-time
champion Chris Froome moved up to second
overall as Sky controlled numerous attacks.
“Amazing position for us,” said Froome,
who trails Thomas, his teammate, by 1
minute, 25 seconds.
Thomas attacked on the last of four grueling
climbs, powered past longtime breakaway
leader Mikel Nieve in the final kilometer, and
finished 20 seconds ahead of Tom Dumoulin.
Froome crossed third, just behind
Dumoulin, who moved up to third overall,
1:44 behind.
The major question now may concern the
dynamics between Thomas and Froome within
Sky. Thomas has been one of Froome’s most
loyal lieutenants for years and Sky labeled
him a co-leader with Froome entering this
year’s Tour.
“Obviously, Froomey is the leader,”
Thomas said. “He has won six Grand Tours.
For me it’s an unknown. Froomey knows how
to win a three-week race. For me, whatever
happens now it is a super successful Tour.
Froomey still has our best chance now —
there’s still more than half the race to go.
“It is an ideal scenario at the moment,”
Thomas added.
Froome is attempting to match the record of
five Tour victories shared by Jacques Anquetil,
Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault and Miguel
Indurain.
So will Thomas, wearing the yellow jersey,
sacrifice himself for Froome on Thursday’s
climb up legendary Alpe d’Huez?
“It depends on the situation and what is
going on in the race. If I have to pull towards
the end, then I will,” Thomas said. “We will
see.”
The top five in the overall classification is
rounded out by 2014 champion Vincenzo
Nibali in fourth, 2:14 behind Thomas, and
Primoz Roglic in fifth, 2:23 back.
Dumoulin, the time trial world champion, is
Sky’s closest challenger.
“He’s someone who can time-trial at the end
of the Tour, too. We’re going to have to keep
a close eye on him,” Froome said, looking
ahead to the race’s only individual time trial in
the penultimate stage.
Greg Van Avermaet, who had worn the yel-
low jersey since his BMC squad won the team
time trial in Stage 3, lost contact midway
through the stage and finished far behind.
Sky calmly rode at its own pace and slowly
caught a series of breakaway riders before
REUTERS
Chris Froome, front, a four-time Tour de France
champion, moved into second place, 1:25
behind teammate Geraint Thomas.
Thomas kicked into action with 6 kilometers
remaining.
“We were expecting attacks,” Thomas said.
“When they go, it is never nice to see them all
riding away but we had confidence in each
other and we rode really well.”
Thomas, who is from Wales, required slight-
ly less than 3 1/2 hours to complete the
108.5-kilometer (67-mile) route from 1992
Winter Olympics host city Albertville to La
Rosiere Espace San Bernardo ski station.
It was his second career stage win at the
Tour, having claimed the individual time trial
that opened last year’s race. He wore the yel-
low jersey for four days last year — before
dropping to second behind Froome — then
crashed out on a descent in Stage 9.
“To wear the yellow jersey is always a mas-
sive honor,” Thomas said. “To do it two years
in a row is really nice.”
After going up the beyond-category ascents
to Montee de Bisanne and Col du Pre, plus the
second-category Cormet de Roselend, the
stage concluded with the unprecedented and
lengthy 17.6-kilometer climb to La Rosiere
— a ski resort linked to La Thuile in the Italian
region of Valle d’Aosta.
With views of Mont Blanc atop Montee de
Bisanne, there was also a technical and tricky
descent from Cormet de Roselend.
The first overall contender to attack was
Alejandro Valverde up the Col du Pre.
Dumoulin then escaped from the peloton with
a downhill attack from Cormet de Roselend
and joined up with Valverde on the final climb.
While Valverde quickly dropped back,
Dumoulin kept up his pace and was only sur-
passed by Thomas.
Sprinting standout Mark Cavendish, mean-
while, finished far behind and missed the time
limit, ending his Tour.

PACIFICA
Continued from page 11
Pacifica certainly had its chances to push runs across as it
had runners in scoring position in each of the first five
innings. It stranded five runners in the first two innings
combined, including the bases loaded in the second. It had a
runner thrown out at the plate in the top of the third, and in
its last best chance to score, wasted a leadoff double in the
top of the fifth.
“We had chances. We had runners at second and third all
game long,” Nemes said. “In the other games, we took
advantage of some mistakes that Granada didn’t make.”
After beating Granada’s ace in the Tuesday’s game,
Pacifica struggled against the one-two pitching punch of
Tyler Palma for the first 3 2/3 innings and Joey Marasco,
who shut the door over the final 2 1/3 innings. They com-
bined to limit Pacifica to just five hits.
Balmy, who had two of his team’s hits, was just as domi-
nant to match the Granada duo. After a laborious first inning
that saw him allow two hits while throwing 25 pitches,
Balmy settled down. He threw 17 in the second inning
before combining for a total of 16 pitches over the next two
innings.
“Both teams got runners on, but the
pitchers did what they needed to do,”
Nemes said.
Even the hit Balmy gave up that drove
in both Granada runs was not a bad pitch.
The hitter just put a good swing on it.
Pacifica dodged a bullet in the bottom
of the first as Granada had runners on first
and third with one out. The runner at first
Jason Balmy broke for second and as he drew the throw
from Pacifica catcher Alex Wineinger,
the runner at third broke for home.
The throw actually went directly to second baseman
Reggie Fong, who fired a perfect strike back to Wineinger,
who swept the tag on the base runner for the out. Balmy
then got a strikeout to end the inning.
Granada returned the favor in third when it threw out a
potential Pacifica run at the plate. Balmy, who singled up
the middle with one out, went to second on a Brody Hatch
walk and took third on a passed ball.
That brought up Austin Snead, who hit a fly ball to medi-
um-deep, right-center field. Balmy broke for the plate as the
catch was made, but he was nailed by the throw of Granada
center fielder Seth Sanchez for an inning-ending double
play.
“Both teams made big plays when they had to,” Nemes
said. “In a game like this, it could have either way.”

Leonard dealt to Raptors, DeRozan goes to Spurs
By Tim Reynolds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Kawhi Leonard saga in San
Antonio is over. So is DeMar
DeRozan’s time in Toronto.
An NBA summer blockbuster got
pulled off Wednesday, with the
Spurs sending Leonard to the
Raptors as part of a four-player deal
that has DeRozan heading to San
Antonio. The Spurs also got center
Jakob Poeltl and a 2019 protected
first-round draft pick, while the
Raptors acquired sharpshooter
Danny Green.
For Leonard and the Spurs, there’s
finally closure to a relationship
that seemed fractured beyond repair
and played out like a soap opera as
the season went along. But in the
end, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich
— insisting that looking back at
what happened would not be worth
his time, and that Leonard was a
good teammate throughout his
tenure in San Antonio — simply
said he hopes the move works out
for everyone involved.
“Kawhi, obviously, worked very
hard to become the player he is,”
Popovich said in San Antonio, a

Olympic champion Fiji, which
suffered a bit of a hangover fol-
lowing its historic win in Rio, is

the top five are New Zealand,
England and the United States.
Unlike many world tourna-
ments, this edition of the Rugby
World Cup will not have group
play. To win the championship, a
team has to win four or five
matches in a row, depending if a
team had a first-round bye or not.
A loss, however, does not end a
team’s tournament. In this rugby
tournament, and like many oth-
ers, there are different “levels” of
finals. In the case of the World
Cup, there are three: Bowl,
Challenge and Championship. A

couple of hours after the trade
became official when the teams got
approval on the terms from the
NBA. “Our staff worked very hard to
help him get there. We wish him all
the best as he moves on to Toronto.
I think he’s going to be great.”
Leonard was the 2014 NBA Finals
MVP and had been with the Spurs
for seven seasons, averaging 16.3
points, though was limited to just
nine games last season because of a
leg injury. DeRozan has been in the
league for nine years, all of them
loss in the first round drops teams
into the Bowl bracket; a loss in
the second round sends teams to
the Challenge bracket, while sec-
ond-round winners move into the
Championship bracket, which
crowns the world champion.
But a team is never actually
eliminated from the tournament.
Each of the playoff brackets
offers consolation matches as
well, meaning teams are playing
throughout the weekend.
Friday’s action kicks off just
after 1 p.m. with Tonga taking on
Kenya and finishes with the host
Americans playing the winner of
Wales-Zimbabwe just after 9:30
p.m. The U.S match is a culmina-
tion of 16, first-day matches.
The tournament continues with 12
more matches on Saturday, begin-
ning just before 12:30 p.m. and fin-
ishing up around 4:30 p.m. If you’re
not rugby-ied out by then, Sunday
ends with a bang of 24 matches,
including the championship match
at right around 5:45 p.m.

with Toronto, and is a career 19.7
point-per-game scorer.
DeRozan has led the Raptors in
scoring in each of the last five sea-
sons. He was key to Toronto win-
ning 59 games and securing the No.
1 seed for the Eastern Conference
playoffs last season. But after get-
ting swept in the second round by
Cleveland, the Raptors decided
massive changes were necessary —
first the firing of coach of the year
Dwane Casey, and now the trading
of a perennial All-Star who once
If that isn’t enough, the third
edition of the Women’s World Cup
will be held at the same time. The
top 16 teams, of which the U.S is
ranked No. 3, begin play at 10
a.m. Friday when Fiji and Spain
hook up. The round of 16 games
will be followed by the first
rounds of the Challenge and
Championship bracket play and
culminates Saturday with the final
rounds of the brackets.
By the time both men’s and
women’s tournaments are fin-
ished, 84 games will have been
played.
But what is really going to
make the tournament a must-
attend event is the festive atmos-
phere that will envelop San
Francisco and, to a larger extend,
the Bay Area as rugby fans from
around the world gather. Rugby
fans have adopted the spirit of the
game of rugby, one that dictates
teams compete as hard as they can
against each other on the field –
and then get together for a post-
famously declared “I am Toronto.”
DeRozan’s initial reaction
seemed to be one of anger and frus-
tration.
“Ain’t no loyalty in this game,”
DeRozan wrote in an Instagram
story that appeared in the wee hours
of Wednesday, around the time that
ESPN and Yahoo Sports reported
that the trade was approaching the
imminent stage, several hours
before it was finalized. “Sell you out
quick for a little bit of nothing ... .”
DeRozan did not specifically ref-
erence the trade in that post, but his
message didn’t exactly need transla-
tion. Raptors president Masai Ujiri
has been traveling in Africa and was
not immediately available for com-
ment.
Not only is the trade huge, it’s
potentially risky for both teams.
Leonard hasn’t played since
January because of the somewhat
mysterious right quadriceps injury
— and the level of severity was
something that even some of his
now-former teammates reportedly
questioned last season while San
Antonio was trying to qualify for
the Western Conference playoffs.
The Raptors clearly aren’t worried
game party, leaving any animosi-
ty on the field.
In my limited experience, rugby
fans embrace the camaraderie.
There is little hostility among
different team’s fans and while
there is cheering and good-natured
trash talk, it rarely devolves into
anything more than that. It’s not
uncommon to see fans of two dif-
ferent teams root their hearts out
for their team and then turn
around and head to the concession
stand together.
Combine world-class athletes
with a festive fan experience and
it adds up to a great weekend in
San Francisco. Even if you know
nothing about rugby, the party at
the AT&T Park is something you
should experience at least once.
And who knows? Maybe you
learn a thing or two about the
sport at the same time.

about Leonard’s status, and
Popovich indicated Wednesday that
Leonard has recovered sufficiently
enough to play.
During the 2016-17 season, he
averaged a career-best 25.5 points
and was third in the MVP voting.
When healthy, there may be no bet-
ter two-way player in the game.
And that makes him worth the
risk for Toronto.
Leonard can be a free agent next
summer. When he asked the Spurs
for a trade weeks ago, it was made
clear that he wants to play for the
Los Angeles Lakers — a team that
landed LeBron James earlier this
month to lead their planned rebuild
back into a contender. That means
the Raptors are entering into this
deal knowing that they could have
given up a star like DeRozan for
someone who might not be in
Toronto for long.
Popovich and Leonard met last
month, but nothing the Spurs could
say apparently changed Leonard’s
mind about wanting a trade.
“Attempts were made to see what
would be best, and in the end this
trade appeared,” Popovich said. “We
felt that this was the way to go.”
ESPY awards
ESPYs abuzz about new Laker
LOS ANGELES — LeBron James
was absent from the ESPYs, but
was still the talk of the town on
the red carpet under a sizzling sun
in Los Angeles.
“There’s a buzz around this city,”
Lakers teammate Josh Hart said.
James was nominated for Best
NBA player for the 14th straight year
at the ESPYs on Wednesday night.
“I think he’s going to do great
things,” soon-to-be NFL Hall of
Famer Terrell Owens said. “I can
see everywhere he’s gone they’ve
increased their wins. I expect
nothing less.”
Athletes and celebrities offered
suggestions on how James can set-
tle into life as a new Angeleno. He
has yet to speak publicly about his
new team since leaving Cleveland
for the West Coast.
“It’s limitless,” rapper G-Eazy said.
“This is Los Angeles. There’s every-
thing you could ever dream of here.”

Among 90 plate appearances,

“I don’t really want to see guys

can tell you the issues that concern

the number of strikeouts, to a lesser
extent the number of home runs, the
significance of the shift and what
it’s done to the game, the use of
relief pitchers and the way starting
pitchers are going to be used.”
When it comes to change, players
are Luddites. Union head Tony Clark
maintained his members are “stew-

When the tour ended, Gruden hand-

At night, coaches and players
from the East Bay Panthers and San

“friendly scrimmage” at Burrell

for them.
Each league received a $50,000

“Seeing these kids’ faces light up
and knowing that sports will teach
them so many valuable lessons
they will carry with them off the

Gruden encourages other youth

“If you give your absolute best

Trimming and tidying: Perennials need care
By Lee Reich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The great attraction in growing perennial
flowers is that you never have to replant
them, at least in theory. This doesn’t make
all perennials care-free, though. Few of
them let you just sit back to enjoy them
year after year once they’re planted.
Take coreopsis, for example, a wonderful
perennial that ends its first flush of bright
yellow blossoms around midsummer. Like a
number of other perennial flowers, coreop-
sis can be overly exuberant in some gardens
— mine, for instance. Right now, the plants
are threatening to take over the whole
flower bed in which they were planted.
SOME PERENNIALS WANDER
Coreopsis spreads very effectively by
self-sown seeds and by roots that travel
underground and then send up shoots
(“suckers”) some distance from the mother
plant. Both seedlings and root suckers are
beginning to elbow out dianthus and other
more sedate neighbors.
Agastache (sometimes known as anise
hyssop), also in that bed, is one plant that
can stand up to coreopsis. As a matter of
fact, agastache is so aggressive that I might
call it a weed, tempting me to remove it
altogether once and for all. Like coreopsis,
it spreads by seeds and suckering roots. As I
pull on those licorice-minty stems, though,
their aroma beckons me to leave in at least
a few plants. I give in.
Fortunately, keeping agastache, coreop-
sis, and similarly exuberant perennials in
line is satisfyingly easy. A quick tug on a
stem or two will wrench a wayward plant
from the ground, roots and all, causing little
disturbance to nearby plant roots. (Tug on
too many stems at once and they don’t
release so easily, or they pull along too big
a clump of soil.)
If I did want to plant more of any of these
SUBURBAN LIVING Thursday • July 19, 2018 17
perennials, those dislodged stems re-estab-
lish quickly at a new site or in flower pots
to plant out later.
SOME PERENNIALS NEED TIDYING UP
Oriental poppy is another perennial need-
ing some attention in summer. Excess
plants may need to be weeded out, but —
more important — this plant needs tidying
up. Oriental poppy dies back in summer, so
I cut back the sad-looking, dying flower
stalks and leaves and cart them over to the
compost pile.
I mentioned that dianthus is well-
behaved, yet even this plant needs some
attention. Shearing back the stems now
that the first flush of bloom is past helps
coax another flush of bloom this season or,
at least, better bloom next year.
Shearing stimulates growth of new,
flower-bearing stems and diverts energy
that otherwise would go into ripening seeds
to new growth and blossoms. Thwarting
seed production also prevents at least one
means of spread — by seedlings — of some
perennials.
Shearing is useful for creeping stems, but
cutting back individual flower stalks is the
treatment for clump-forming plants. Other
plants slated for shearing or cutting back
include snow-in-summer, delphinium and
columbine.
SOME PERENNIALS
NEED NOTHING FROM YOU
A few perennials do live up to gardeners’
hopes of a plant you set in the ground and
then do nothing more than enjoy. Some
that come to mind are peony, daylily, helle-
bore and hosta, all with dense enough
foliage to even shade out most weeds. ANTONYCHAMMOND ON VISUALHUNT / CC BY-NC-SA

DECISION
Continued from page 1
“The bottom line is for general residents,
we have this sense of who we are as a town
of Brisbane and that we really care about our
citizens and our neighbors. We look out for
each other,” said Beth Grossman. “And we
don’t feel any housing out on that extraordi-
narily toxic land is a place we would invite
our neighbors to live.”
Grossman and other critics believe more
study is needed to assure the project has
been entirely vetted, while suggesting a
variety of unanswered questions continue to
linger.
Uncertainties over toxic soil remedia-
tion, strain on the city’s budget, sea level
rise, affordable housing, traffic congestion,
noise and planning alignment with a pro-
posal to build a high-speed rail stop at the
site are among the issues yet to be resolved.
“Those questions remain unanswered,”
said Grossman. “And they are pretty funda-
mental.”
Regarding foundational concerns with the
project, resident Vicky Graham said she
believes many feel development along the
Baylands would only accelerate the trend of
building locally without regard for the
repercussions.
“Just the cramped idea of no space, it
makes most people want to see that left
open,” she said. “It’s a rest from all the
sprawl.”
Resident Barbara Neuhauser agreed the
project would forever alter the community’s
charm.
“One of the nice things about Brisbane is

the justices wrote in a unanimous ruling.
They said time constraints forced them to
rule on the issue immediately.
Venture capitalist Tim Draper, who spent
more than $1.7 million on his “Cal 3” ini-
tiative, has tried for years to split the state,
arguing it has become ungovernable
because of its size, wealth disparities and
geographic diversity.
His last attempt to divide California in
six didn’t gather enough signatures to make
LOCAL
that it didn’t have traffic congestion and it
had that small town feel to it,” she said.
“Those things are going to be gone.”
Others disregard with such perspective,
under the belief that Brisbane shares an
obligation with other cities throughout San
Mateo County to build the amount of hous-
ing commensurate with the number of jobs
created locally.
‘Poster child of dysfunction’
Matt Regan, of economic advocacy group
Bay Area Council, said he believes the fight
to stall development at the Baylands is a
case study in ways to compound a housing
crisis.
“This is the poster child of the dysfunc-
tion of our region for meeting housing
needs and regional planning,” he said.
Regan’s organization and other like it
have carried the torch for allowing homes at
the site, claiming residential development
would help bring down area housing prices
while clearing traffic congestion and help-
ing the environment in the process.
“We remain committed to this site as one
of the biggest opportunity sites in the Bay
Area to address these problems, particularly
traffic and housing affordability,” he said.
“Unless we start waking up to the reality
that we have to build homes in the urban
core, we are only going to see these prob-
lems get worse.”
As it relates to quality of life issues, build-
ing housing at the site near the Bayshore
Caltrain station could also help reduce traf-
fic congestion, noted Evelyn Stivers, exec-
utive director of the county’s Housing
Leadership Council.
Stivers recognized community reticence
to endorse the project, but suggested it
could ultimately benefit the growth of
the ballot in 2016.
“The whole point of the initiative process
was to be set up as a protection from a gov-
ernment that was no longer representing its
people. Now that protection has been cor-
rupted, ” Draper said in a statement.
“Whether you agree or not with this initia-
tive, this is not the way democracies are
supposed to work.”
The director of the Planning and
Conservation League cheered the ruling.
The initiative “was a costly, flawed
scheme that will waste billions of
California taxpayer dollars, create chaos in
public services including safeguarding our
environment,” Howard Penn said in a state-
ment. “It would have dismantled the world’s
Brisbane and the Peninsula.
“We understand the City Council is con-
cerned about changing the demographics of
the city and the balance of power of the City
Council, but the city’s plan of only approv-
ing commercial development would cause
terrible traffic and make our housing short-
age even worse,” Stivers said in an email.
“We are thrilled that the City Council now
recognizes the need to include housing and
are hopeful that the scaled-back plan secures
voter approval.”
Local control
The plan for an entirely commercial
development to which Stivers refers is a
previous iteration that included no housing.
But after pressure was applied to allow
homes at the site, the proposal morphed. It
has since been refined again to beef up the
commercial space and reduce the amount of
units.
The most recent iteration still stands to
double the population of Brisbane, a pro-
posal so significant that councilmembers
agreed voters should have the authority.
At the upcoming meeting, officials are
expected to examine the ballot language
defining the project likely going before
voters in the November election.
Many residents question whether there is
sufficient support to pass any ballot meas-
ure including residential development,
which some believe will invite additional
pressure from state legislators.
Regan pointed to draft legislation previ-
ously crafted by state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San
Mateo, as evidence of a willingness from
local lawmakers to intervene, should
Brisbane block housing at the site.
The legislation has also been identified
by councilmembers in their reluctant argu-
fifth biggest economy without solving a
single challenge facing Californians
today.”
The environmental group’s lawsuit says
major changes to the state’s government
structure require approval from two-thirds of
the Legislature before being considered by
voters or a state constitutional convention.
Draper has argued that the measure doesn’t
go beyond what voters can enact through an
initiative. If passed, it would be only the
first step toward splitting the state, he said.
The initiative, which could appear on a
future ballot if the court ultimately rules in
its favor, seeks to divide the state into
Northern California, California and
Southern California.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
ments to move the issue to the ballot, sug-
gesting their hands on the matter are forced.
Grossman though questioned whether the
threat is as real as its being perceived.
“It feels not that compelling,” she said,
questioning whether the purported legisla-
tion was introduced to insulate councilmem-
bers from criticism for advancing the hous-
ing proposal.
‘Fiercely independent’
Meanwhile, Regan warned about the dan-
ger invited through dismissing the state’s
commitment to building more housing,
pointing to the utilization of Senate Bill 35
to streamline developments elsewhere in
the Bay Area.
“If the good folks of Brisbane think local
control is ultimate and sacrosanct, and they
continue to refuse housing at that site, I
would ask them to call up some friends in
Berkeley and Cupertino and see how that
went,” he said, identifying two communi-
ties where SB 35 was applied.
Recognizing the myriad outside forces
squeezing Brisbane to build homes at the
Baylands, Regan encouraged residents to
accept what he considers the community’s
fair share of the need for new homes.
“This is what comes with desiring eco-
nomic growth — it means you also have to
have a desire to accommodate the work-
force,” he said.
For her part though, Grossman expressed
doubt that such a perspective would be suffi-
cient to garner voter support.
“A lot of it will depend on who will make
a better argument. But my biggest fear is
that people will use fear as a way to con-
vince people in terms of us losing our
autonomy,” she said. “Because Brisbane is
fiercely independent.”
Northern California would comprise the
Bay Area, Silicon Valley, Sacramento and
counties north of the state capital.
California would be a strip of land along the
coast stretching from Los Angeles to
Monterey. Southern California would
include Fresno and the surrounding farming
communities, reaching to San Diego and the
Mexican border.
Supporters gathered signatures from hun-
dreds of thousands of Californians, and the
secretary of state in June announced they
had enough to get the effort on the general
election ballot.
The justices’ decision leaves 11 ballot
measures for voters to weigh in November.

SUIT
Continued from page 1
But instead, she got word from the
company she was receiving a demo-
tion in August while she was still on
maternity leave. And when she
reviewed the job description for her
new role, she found the text matched a
description she had drafted for months
before for a copywriter position she
had planned to hire before her preg-
nancy.
Initially, Johnson thought the
description had been sent in error, but
she learned it was the one intended for
her, and that any discussion of the
change would be reserved for after her
return from maternity leave.
Until then, Johnson had dismissed
events leading up to her maternity
leave that had made her feel as though
her pregnancy could negatively affect
her work prospects, including the
removal of her direct report and an
email from the company’s vice presi-
dent of marketing pressuring her and
another pregnant coworker to use
Natera’s genetic testing products as
well as those made by a competitor.
But when she learned of her demo-
tion, together with news the company
had filled the open marketing director
position without giving her a chance
to apply for it, Johnson began to see
the company’s actions as discriminat-
ing against her.
“I just couldn’t deny it anymore,”
she said. “That was when I finally said
‘this is discriminatory.’”
For Johnson, who left the company
in June, the demotion was already
one of several actions taken by com-
pany managers and executives that
made her feel like her pregnancy
could pose a problem or be used as an
opportunity to help the company fill
a knowledge gap. But she said she
couldn’t have imagined that, after fil-
ing complaints with the company
about gender discrimination, she
would become the subject of retalia-
tion she allege took many forms,
including leaving her out of meet-
ings, overly scrutinizing her work
and being urged against proceeding
with her complaints by the compa-
ny’s vice president of marketing.
In a lawsuit filed with the San Mateo
County Superior Court last week,
Johnson is alleging the company dis-
criminated against her on the basis of
her pregnancy and gender. She also
alleges the company failed to reason-
ably accommodate her requests for
ergonomic support to address back
pain when she was seven months Resignation,
pregnant and extra time to complete
assignments upon her return from
departure from Bay Area

about the way she was treat-
ed, among other charges.
A Natera spokeswoman

dential, and a prepared state-
Request for
genetic testing
Among the instances that alarmed
Johnson in the weeks leading up to her
son’s birth was being included in an
email from Ramesh Hariharan, the
company’s vice president of marketing
and medical education, stating “we
should request pregnant woman on our
teams (Blain and [name redacted]) to
get tested by our competitors … where
we have knowledge gaps … we will pay
for the test and get H2H data,” accord-
ing to the suit.
Johnson said the non-invasive pre-
natal testing product Hariharan was
referring to requires mothers to take a
blood test and wait several weeks for
the company to analyze fetal DNA in
the mother’s bloodstream and detect
the likelihood of chromosomal abnor-
malities in the fetus.
“You’re testing to see if there’s a
problem with your baby,” she said.
Johnson said she spent four days
thinking about whether she should
respond to the email, weighing how
important the market research would be
for the company and what it would be
like for other employees to review her
baby’s genetic information. She said
she ultimately didn’t respond to the
email and Hariharan never followed up
with her on the issue, but did hear in
informal conversations at the work-
place that other pregnant employees
had related communications with other
executives and director-level employ-
ees at the company.
In the weeks following her return to
work from leave, Johnson filed an
anonymous complaint about her demo-
tion with the company, as well as com-
plaints with the company’s marketing
director and Hariharan’s executive
assistant, according to the suit.
In the weeks following her return,
Johnson alleges she was stripped of
her management responsibilities, her
work was overly scrutinized and heard
from other employees Hariharan was
planning to put something negative in
her review because of “all the trouble”
she had caused with her complaints,
according to the suit.
Johnson met with Hariharan in
January after she complained about the
company’s maternity leave policy at a
meeting with several employees, and
alleges he told her he respected and
liked her work and that she would not
have a problem finding a job elsewhere
and that she didn’t have to do this. She
claims he told her “the world is small”
and that he would extend his entire net-
work to her if she did not proceed with
her complaints, according to the suit.

health was deteriorating under the
stress of the company’s discriminatory
and retaliatory actions against her,
according to the suit.
Johnson, 34, said she is taking time
to figure out what’s next for her career.
Having worked in communications for
more than 12 years, Johnson said she
plans to return to the field, but worries
about the gap in her resume and
whether she’ll have success in the
biotech industry after she has spoken
out.
“It really ruined my confidence,” she
said. “[My career] has been something
that I’ve done well in. To have that
derailed was a really destabilizing
event.”
Formerly a San Francisco resident,
Johnson said she, her husband and her
13-month-old son recently moved out
of the Bay Area having found it difficult
to afford living in San Francisco with-
out two incomes.
‘Workplace equality’
Having represented other woman in
similar situations, Johnson’s attor-
neys Jayme Walker of the firm
Gwilliam Ivary Chiosso Cavalli &
Brewer and Erika Jacobsen White of the
firm Jacobsen White Law said the preg-
nancy discrimination Johnson faced is
pervasive across industries and
regions. Walker noted pregnancy dis-
crimination comes at a time when
women are particularly vulnerable and
adjusting to new identities as mothers,
and that it’s not uncommon for those
who lose their jobs because of preg-
nancy discrimination to struggle to re-
enter the workforce.
“I think that that is something that
can really take women out of the work-
force,” she said. “This kind of discrim-
ination has a devastating effect on peo-
ple’s careers and on their lives.”
In being encouraged by a company
executive to stop pursuing her com-
plaints, Johnson faced notable pres-
sure to take back her concerns about
the treatment she received, said White.
She said the company’s lack of
response to Johnson’s complaints
shows its leaders do not take gender
discrimination seriously, a trend
White, Walker and Johnson are hoping
to reverse in filing the suit.
“I think a lot of women face that kind
of pressure and it’s often not quite as
explicit,” said White. “They made it
really clear that complaints are not
welcome here.”
Johnson said she is hoping the suit
not only brings the company to
acknowledge its treatment of her was
wrong, but also helps sparks more
broad conversations in workplaces
across industries about how to treat
genders equally.
“I hope that this sparks a conversa-

seek re-election, said City Clerk Krista Normandy received criticism over a per- tied to working as an elected official.

LIZA
Continued from page 1
she took last year.
Despite her resignation from elected
office, Normandy pledged a commitment to
working in the best interest of her commu-
nity in a new capacity.
“I will continue working every day to pro-
tect and preserve the quality of life for every
South City neighborhood and our business
community from the largest employer to the
mom-and-pop business downtown, ” she
said in a prepared statement. “Your confi-
dence in me has made my dream of commu-
nity service come true and I am over-
whelmed with gratitude to finish my final
term as your mayor.”
Unlike Normandy, her colleagues Mark
Addiego and Pradeep Gupta pulled papers to
Martinelli. Planning Commissioner Mark
Nagales announced his interest to run for
election to the South San Francisco City
Council as well. For her part, Martinelli
said she will not seek re-election, while
Rosa Acosta, of the South San Francisco
Unified School District Board of Trustees,
pulled papers to fill the seat. Acosta is cur-
rently the city clerk in Pinole.
For Normandy, she said her greatest
accomplishments during her time with the
city include being one of the only three
women in more than one century to be elect-
ed to the South San Francisco City Council.
Normandy also credited her colleague and
mentor Vice Mayor Karyl Matsumoto for
helping inspire her to achieve her goals.
“I said many years ago that one day I
wanted to be like her, to be mayor, and I
made it,” Normandy said in an email.
Her time as an elected official was not
entirely smooth sailing though, as
ceived conflict of interest since her hiring
at the Chamber of Commerce.
Normandy deflected such concerns
though, claiming her approach to both
positions was influenced solely by her own
best judgment.
“Elected officials are under a microscope
and I can understand those with concerns
and it is important in any position to have
morals, values and understanding right from
wrong,” she said. “I believe I have demon-
strated that, not just in my dual roles; but,
every day personally and professionally.”
She noted the Fair Political Practices
Commission reviewed her dual roles and
decided it would be acceptable to remain in
her elected position. She did recuse herself
from votes in instances when necessary as
well, Normandy said.
Looking ahead, Normandy said any
potentially interested candidate should first
understand the significant time obligation
She said she managed the lost time with
help of her family, and suggested anyone
else seeking election do the same.
“Family is key to one’s success and it is
having them understand that there could be
late-night meetings or multiple study ses-
sions … that you have to be at. It is that
support and love at home — that keeps you
motivated and a reminder that you are mak-
ing decisions that will impact your family
and the entire community,” she said.
As she prepares for more nights at home
after her term expires at the end of the year,
it is goodbye but not farewell for Normandy
who said she will keep working for her com-
munity from a different post.
“Every day I work to improve the quality
of life for every South City resident by
ensuring we have a strong local economy,
good jobs for our residents and youth, and
corporate citizens who invest in our com-
munity in many ways,” she said.
