Is organic pesticide-free?
The benefits of greater equality
Dear Editor:
Nancy Minities excellent article about
possible pesticide exposure on organic
produce is an eye-opener.
As consumers, we rely on the conventional meaning of words that describe
food. We also like to believe that the purpose of government agencies is to protect
the consumer, when actually those agencies have to balance the interests of many
including consumers, farmers, agribusiness and even the government itself.
No one will care more about your
health than you do. We each get to make
choices about the vegetables we eat. Lowcost convenient choices can be found in
supermarkets everywhere, but those vegetables may come with pesticides that
may lead to health problems. Organic
vegetables are increasingly available but,
as her article shows, consumers relying
on that term may not be purchasing the
safe vegetables they think they are.
I have eaten many pounds of vegetables from Uncommon Good. They are
fabulous. Astonishingly fresh and bursting with flavor. You have to wind through
the campus of United Methodist on
Foothill to find the beautiful super adobe
building where Uncommon Good operates, but it is well worth the journey. This
is a wonderful opportunity for Claremont
shoppers. Do not deny yourself the delight of excellent vegetables. Make good
choices. You deserve the best.
Dear Editor:
When I recently saw a comparison between the income of hedge fund operators and kindergarten teachers, I was
reminded of the upcoming second forum
on economic inequality to be held at
Rose Hills Theatre on the Pomona College campus at 7 p.m. next Tuesday,
March 31.
In 2013, the four highest paid hedge
fund operators on Wall Street earned a
combined $10.4 billion, while the
roughly 158 thousand kindergarten
teachers in the United States earned a
combined $8.3 billion. But then, of
course, we tax teachers at a higher rate
since what they earn is classified as
salary; it doesnt qualify as capitol gains.
Some people think there is a zeitgeist
developing that will put us back on the
road to greater fairness, believing as
Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett
demonstrate convincingly in their excellent book, The Spirit Level, that
greater equality makes societies
stronger.
I worry that not enough people have
read the book or looked at relevant data,
but I also know people can make great
changes with persistent effort. After all,
it only took about 70 years to convince
American men that women deserved the
right to vote.

CITY NEWS
Council divided on tree removal for pollen issues
hings always get interesting in

Claremont, especially when theres
talk about removing city trees.
Alice Perrault and her 15-year-old son Julius came before the city council Tuesday night to request the removal
of two healthy holly oaks on the 100 block of E. Green
Street, a neighborhood known for its mature trees. Standing 25 and 35 feet, the holly oaks are the only two of their
kind on the block. The Coast Live Oak had been the only
designated street tree until the city council approved the
expanded Designated Street Tree List earlier this year.
Typically, tree removal requests that come before city
staff are denied, as they dont meet the strict criteria for
removal as outlined by city guidelines. However, Ms.
Perrault felt there were extenuating circumstances pertaining to her request that needed to be brought to the attention of the city council.
After moving into their Claremont home in July 2013,
Ms. Perrault noticed that two holly oaksone on their
property and another on their neighbors property bordering her drivewaycreated an abundance of pollen.
The health of her son Julius, who has cerebral palsy and
suffers from allergies and periodic asthma attacks, dramatically worsened after moving in to their new home.
The allergist that has been following my son has
made it very clear that the problem he is having right now
is with particles, and that is the reason that this particular
oak is causing so many problems, Ms. Perrault told the
council. When we moved into this house, and when this
tree started to bloom, my son was severely affected.
In February 2014, Julius went into severe respiratory
stress and was hospitalized numerous times. At that point,
Julius was put on medication and Ms. Perrault reached
out to the city in search of a remedy with the hope of alleviating her sons distress.
At the request of the homeowner, the city pruned the
trees in an effort to mitigate the problem, said Community Services Director Kathleen Trepa. It didnt.
Undeterred, and with the support of her neighbor, Ms.
Perrault submitted a tree removal request to city staff in
May 2014. The request was denied because it didnt meet
the criteria of the Tree Policies and Guideline Manual.
The citys municipal code, however, authorizes the
Community and Human Services Commission to grant
Alice Perrault wants the city-owned trees bordering

her property removed because she believes they are
making her disabled sons allergies worse. On Tuesday, she was able to get a 3-2 vote from the Claremont
City Council in favor of cutting the trees down.

in Claremont make a yellow pollen that Alice Perrault

requests if it finds that not removing the tree would result

in a burden on the property ownera burden that outweighs the benefit to the public of maintaining the tree.
In February 2015, Ms. Perraults request came before
the Tree Committee, who again denied her request, despite documentation of her sons condition from a physician.
Members of the Tree Action Group (TAG) came to
the Tree Committee meeting. Ben Wise, a one-year
member of TAG, was assigned the task of reading a letter from one of TAGs members, Mark von Wodtke. A
self-proclaimed allergy sufferer, Mr. von Wodtke suggested Julius rinse his nasal passages and sinuses with
saline solution, coat his nostrils with honey and exercise
the ancient practice of Qigong, despite the fact that
Julius is confined to a wheelchair. The suggestions were
not well received by Ms. Perrault.
The gentleman that listed that information from the
letter, you could tell he was embarrassed, Ms. Perrault
says of that meeting. He came up to me afterwards,
apologetic, and said those were the things he was told
to present. Hed experienced Julius, but the other people who werent there didnt. They had their little meeting at home and then they said, Okay, make these
suggestions and represent us.
From there, the request would typically have moved
up the chain to the Community and Human Services
Commission for consideration but, due to warm weather,
the trees in question began pollinating earlier than normal. Because of Julius special needs and debilitating
asthma, the request was propelled directly to city council.
TREE REMOVAL/continues on page 7
Council approves new police station funding for November ballot
laremont residents will be faced

with yet another big decision come
election time following the city
councils unanimous decision to move forward with a bond measure for up to $50
million to fund a new public safety facility.
Police Chief Paul Cooper presented a report supporting the departments need for a new police station. In his
address to council on Tuesday, Chief Cooper stressed that
the current police station, which was built in an era where
electric typewriters and carbon paper ruled the day as
technological tools, is wholly unfit for a modern police
force.
The 40-year-old facility was designed for an age
where mankind was anticipating a moon landing, gasoline was 34 cents a gallon, officers were working eighthour shifts, female officers were relatively rare, and
equipment such as personal computers and fax machines
were relegated to an imaginary world envisioned by
Buck Rogers, Chief Cooper said in his report.
For the past four decades, the Claremont Police Department has been operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a
year in a facility that was designed for a smaller workforce in a much smaller community and has become obsolete, the chief asserted, stating that the current structure
can no longer meet the needs of the staff or the more
than 35,000 residents for which it serves.

Two methods of funding for the project were presented
by City Finance Director Adam Pierrie to city council
members Tuesday nightgeneral obligation bonds or a
parcel tax.
The parcel tax differs from general obligation bonds in
that a tax payment would be assessed to each property
owner as a flat rate per parcel, not based on the valuation
of the property. A parcel tax would also include revenue
paid to the city by non-taxable property owners, such as
churches and the Colleges.
The Claremont City Council voted 5-0 to pursue the
approximate $50 million parcel tax funding, stating that
the services provided by the police department are utilized by all members of the Claremont community.
Councilmembers approved a 40-year term, based on a
suggestion by Councilmember Larry Schroeder, who
noted that residents can expect the new safety facility to
serve the departments needs for approximtaely as long
as the current station has.
A property owner with an assessed property valuation
of $530,000 would pay roughly $286 annuallyor about
$24 a monthfor the next 40 years to fund a new public safety facility. The yearly payment would remain
fixed, estimating the total debt service over the life of
the term at $119.5 million.
I think the financial situation could be better but, the
fact is, if we dont do it today it will not be under our con-
trol if we have to do it in the future based on an emergency, said Councilman Joe Lyons. That would be a
time when wed most need a functioning public safety
department and they would be compromised like others
in the area. Clearly, that threat is one weve played Russian roulette with long enough and I think now is the time
to move forward.
A two-thirds voter approval would be required for the
funding measure to pass on November 3.
Im disappointed that this project has been tabled because of the water bond issue taking precedence, Police
Commissioner Kristina Brooks told the council. Weve
been able to ignore the issue for so long because our police services havent been negatively impacted and thats
due to what a great job the police department has done.
Now that city council has given direction on the financing mechanism, city staff will bring back the required documents to put the measure before the voters
in the fall, as well as the final cost estimates for construction of the new public safety facility.
Mayor Corey Calaycay suggests the community look
at the evidence when deciding their vote in November.
The pictures speak for themselves if you take the time
to take the tour [of the station], Mr. Calaycay said.
People can then see the reality of what our police department is facing and what the need is.

A neighborhood north of Base Line
Road was put on alert as Claremont police searched for two burglary suspects in
the area. According to Claremont Sergeant Eric Huizar, officers responded to a
residential burglary in progress on the 500
block of Bluefield Drive after receiving a
call from a neighbor at around 11:50 a.m.
Two unknown thieves tried to enter the
residence by smashing a rear sliding door,
which activated the home alarm system.
They then fled. A neighbor on the 500
block of Sebastopol Street heard the alarm
then saw the burglars travel on foot toward Vail Park. They called the police.
Within one minute of the call, eight Claremont officers arrived on scene and conducted a yard-to-yard search of the area.
They were unable to locate the two suspects.
The victim arrived home during the investigation, notifying officers that a dark

EDUCATION
Claremont teens save water, beautify campus
laremont High School

is going native, thanks
to a landscaping project undertaken by students in
Marizka Rivettes AP environmental science class.
As part of the CHS Waterwise Project, students have put in hours tearing
out the grass and grading the land surrounding the administration office. They
have watched and learned as the sprinklers were replaced with a drip system.
On Tuesday, the air was thick with
the smell of mulch and sage as the teens
put in drought-tolerant plants indigenous to the area.
I think its a great way to learn, actually being out here with a hands-on
project, senior Austin Antillon said,
shovel in hand.
The project began when David
Sawhillmath, yearbook and Wolfcast
teacher and the schools Green Team
leaderpointed out to Ms. Rivette that
the high school had a small pool of
grant money available for a green enterprise.
The pair decided to use the $400
grant, which comes courtesy of Sustainable Claremont, for the administration
redux. They are still seeking community
donations for this and future projects.
By having students work on a waterwise landscape, they learn how to conserve water in a time of drought and
learn about native plants, as well as encourage the school district to save
money and maintain a sustainable environment, Mr. Sawhill said in recent article in the Wolfpack student newspaper.
Ms. Rivette and Mr. Sawhill found
guidance and willing help among several plant experts, particularly CHS
alumn Andrew Bentson, who is cofounder of the BAM (Bentson And McCallion) Water Wise landscaping
company.
Its really to spread the message of
creating sustainable landscapes as opposed to water-wasteful ones, Mr.
Bentson said.
He took a moment to explain the mechanics of the project while students
placed an array of plants native to the
local chaparral ecosystem. These include
four kinds of sage, buckwheat, California sagebrush, California lilac, buckwheat, apricot mallow, monkey flower,
ornamental grasses and succulents.
The piece de resistance is a Manzanita tree that Mr. Bentson noted will
grow to be between 8 and 10 feet.
In preparation for the CHS Waterwise Project, students learned about native landscapes at the Rancho Santa
ATRIGHT: CHS senior Austin Antillon

uses a pick to break up rocks as a
group of AP environmental science
students convert a grassy area at
Claremont High into a drought-tolerant
garden. Austin said the work was very
important due to the current drought
and to help reduce water use in the
long run.

The AP environmental science students tore out about 1500 square feet of grass adjacent to Claremont High Schools administration building and replaced it with native plants, mulch and rocks.
Ana Botanic Garden as well as Oakmont Elementary School. Oakmont is

home to the Biome project, another endeavor in which BAM has been heavily
involved.
Next, Mr. Bentson held a couple of
brainstorming sessions, where the students gave input into how the project
should look. Then Mr. Bentson drew up
plans, featuring a decomposed granite
path and a seating area where students
can rest on large boulders. The kids
were then put to work on marketing, inventory, design and construction.
The latter aspect included piling up
the dirt in order to create little hills and
valleys as well as a swale. This makes
the environment look more natural and
helps the soil with water capture and
drainage.
Ms. Rivette said she is excited about
the swap-out. People used to walk by
the administration building and not
even notice the grass. Now, the area has
an engaging environment that she
hopes will get plenty of use.
Im really getting the vibe, she
said. The students can sit here between
classes and smell the sage.
Beyond the aesthetics, there is a direct and calculable benefit to the district, according to Mr. Bentson: After
five years, we estimate they will save
$4,000 and 850,000 gallons of water.
After 10 years, there will be an estimated savings of $9,500 and 1.8 million gallons of water.
It is likely that some of the students
involved in or inspired by the CHS Waterwise Project will take home some
drought-tolerant ideas for their own
yards. Austin, however, already has a
household in line with conservation.
My garden is pretty water-wise. My
folks are into the economic aspect of
it, he said.

Taking the good with the bad

by Mellissa Martinez
ast year, I came across an archived

article from a 1994 New Yorker
that relied exclusively on the misuse of language to express humor. In
How I Met My Wife, Jack Winter cleverly drops the negating suffixes from
common words to create playful affirmatives. He begins, I saw her standing alone
in a corner. She was a descript person, a
woman in a state of total array. Her hair
was kempt, her clothing shevelled, and
she moved in a gainly way.
Although array, kempt, shevelled and gainly
are not common, or even grammatical, it is easy to
imagine that they should be. English speakers naturally expect an affirmative counterpart for most words
formed with a negating suffix. We understand that by
removing the negative prefixes from unhappy, improper, dislike and misunderstand, we are left
with the constructive happy, proper, like and understand.
There are many cases, however, where no such
partnership exists. Consider impetuous, deject and
nonchalant. If we take away the prefixes in these
cases, we are left with the non-existent petuous, ject
and chalant. Did these words ever exist? The answer
is yes. They may have existed in another language
and never been adopted into English, or perhaps they
LEX
IN THE
CITY
were used in English but eventually became archaic.
An example can be seen in the word deject. This
comes from the combination of de- down and the
Latin iacere to throw. Iacere became ject, which was
used as the base for project, abject, conjecture
and eject. Ject no longer exists in English, but it
does have a close relative from the same source, jet,
to sprout or spurt forth. Disgruntle also lost its base
word gruntle, which once meant to grumble. Today
it exists in English as grunt.
The process of eliminating affirmative counterparts
is happening even now. Consider, for example, debunk. It was first used in 1923, meaning take the
bunk out of things. In the early 1900s, bunk commonly referred to nonsense. Although it is still recognizable, I would argue that debunk enjoys much
wider usage. The same is true for words like incorrigible, disconcerting and unbridled. When was the
last time you praised your child for his corrigible behavior? Lets face itbunk, corrigible, concerting and bridled are probably on their way out.
Some base words are not immediately obvious

until the negating suffix is stripped away. For example, incessant comes from cease, insipid from
sapient, inept from apt and feckless from effect. There are also those with surprising roots: nonchalant comes from Latin calere, to be warm and is
related to calorie; impeccable is derived from Latin
pecare to sin, meaning that an impeccable person is
not liable to sin; and dishevel comes from the Old
French chevel, hair and originally meant bareheaded.
Sometimes people perceive a negative suffix,
which doesnt actually exist. In this case, a new word
can emerge through backformation, which is basically
the opposite procedure of normal word formation. Instead of adding suffixes to bases, perceived suffixes
are omitted. In the case of insane, for example, the
Latin insanus, mad was in use for centuries before
the emergence of sane. Speakers perceived in- to be
a negative prefix (even though it wasnt), so they
dropped it to create the affirmative antonym, sane.
Most unpaired words are negative because it is
more common for the positive forms to become rare.
Restoring the positive, it turns out, can be fun. Perhaps this is because the meaning of these words is
somehow beknownst to us on a subconscious level
and we are mayed by the wordplay. We like the
thought of creating new, yet familiar effable expressions. In fact, when I read the end of Winters tale, I
have given her my love and she has requited it, I
thoughthow refreshing it is to hear of requited love
for once!
This is not what I had in mind as an anniversary evening.
TREE REMOVAL/from page 3
I do have a HEPA filter, not a homesealed system. I also recently purchased an

air quality monitor that measures the
amount of particles in my house, explained Ms. Perrault when asked by council what she was doing to mitigate the
problem. With this particular monitor, if
the air quality numbers are above 1,000
thats very poor air. When the windows are
open, we are well over 1,000. When I close
the windows and run the HEPA filter, we
drop below 100.
Expressing concern for the boys health,
Councilman Joe Lyons asked if she saw
any symptomatic relief from the situation
with this practice.
Absolutely, hes able to sleep through
the night, she responded.
Citing a written assessment by the New
York Allergy and Science Center, Mayor
Corey Calaycay went on to say, Unfortunately, the only two ways to really address
it is to be aware of pollen counts and stay
indoors when you know pollen counts are
high. And, of course, the other thing is
medication is a necessary treatment.
I think this is the problem were all
having, and one that youve acknowledged
yourself, Mr. Calaycay expressed, addressing Ms. Perrault. We can remove
these two trees, but it may still not address
the problem. Other trees on the block may
be contributing to the problem.
Mayor Pro Tem Sam Pedroza disagreed
with this assessment.
Not all of us feel that way, Mr. Pedroza said. Ive been on this council
where weve removed trees simply because they were in the way of a pipe. Yes,
we are the City of Trees. Yes, we value our
trees very, very much, but this is something
that seems like a no-brainer. If this tree

Alice Perrault moved to Claremont several years ago in part for the health of her son
Julius Steubing, who has cerebral palsy. After she bought a home on Green Street,
her sons severe allergies became markedly worse resulting in periodic hospitalization. Ms. Perrault has requested permission to have the trees removed.
has the particulate matter that is falling

down and being dragged into their home,
I think the request here is pretty clear.
With that, Mr. Pedroza announced his
vote would be to have the tree removed.
Mr. Lyons agreed.
We have allowed removal for much
less significant issues, Mr. Lyons said. I
will vote to remove what is clearly a significant contribution in the area.
Council members Larry Schroeder and
Opanyi Nasiali were of a different mindset,
dividing the council right down the middle.
Im not unsympathetic to this and I understand allergies. My granddaughter has
celiac disease, said Mr. Schroeder. This
time of year, my tree drops the same type
of particles. I close my windows and have

a HEPA filter. Its not just an emotional decision here. I think the tree can be causing
particles but it could be a number of things.
I think we should use science. Theres no
base figures on this and its not clear that
the removal of this tree will improve the
situation. Until I can get more empirical information on this, Ill vote against the removal.
Mr. Nasiali agreed.
Im sympathetic to the condition the
young man is in, expressed Mr. Nasiali.
But Im not convinced there is conclusive
evidence that by removing this tree the
problem will go away. Therefore, I cannot
support the decision to remove the tree.
The matter then came before Mayor
Calaycay for a deciding vote.
I never thought during my first meeting
it would come down to this, he said.
These arent small trees; it changes the
face of the neighborhood. Im not 100 percent convinced removing the trees is going
to solve the problem.

Mr. Pedroza then moved to remove the
two trees, a motion that was seconded by
Mr. Lyons, only to be withdrawn minutes
later as Mr. Lyons proposed a subsequent
motion: to postpone a decision on the item
until they could get air quality assessments
of the area around the house to see if these
trees were the cause of the condition.
The subsequent motion was seconded
by Mayor Calaycay but failed when put to
vote by council. Mr. Pedroza then moved
his original motion, seconded again by Mr.
Lyons.
If removing those trees continues to
make this kid healthy and were going to
plant other trees that, in a few years, will be
just as tall, then at least we tried, Mr. Pedroza said. Thats all Im asking for, and
I think thats all this parent is asking from
us as a city.
Mr. Pedroza added that as city leaders,
the council should make this difficult decision that, hopefully, will improve the life
of one of its young residents.
Maybe well make her sons life a little better. If not, then she has to explore
other options. But as a city, were saying
that we support her, Mr. Pedroza said.
To the delight of Ms. Perrault, her tree
removal request was approved, 3-2, with
Mr. Calyacay providing the swing vote.
Mr. Schroeder and Mr. Nasiali denied the
request.
Im not unsympathetic to everyones
concerns about the trees, Ms. Perrault
said. I love the trees, theyre beautiful.
Theyre one of the reasons we love Claremont. I want to thank Mr. Lyons and Mr.
Pedroza for putting up their dukes for
Julius.
Like his Claremont High School classmates, Julius will be on spring break next
month. Ms. Perrault will have the trees removed while Julius takes a vacation with
his father. At $1,530 for removal, she will
work with the city to mitigate the cost, as
well as plant four trees in place of the two
that will be removed. Angela Bailey
Its not always fair

by Jan Wheatcroft
dont use a credit card a lot. I find it

inhibits my ability to save money,
making it so easy to buy things I
might not really need. It makes spending
so easy so I try to restrict myself and use
cash or checks or debit my account.
I have had my major credit card with British Air and
over the years carefully saved up my points or avios
as they call them. I finally amassed 75,250 avios and
was ready to book a round-trip flight to London for
this summers trip. With age, I have discovered the
pleasure of traveling in what is called premium
classjust a step up from good old economy but
below business class. I have flown premium class with
both British Air and Air New Zealand and must admit
I prefer Air New Zealands seating arrangement and
service. But since my pointsor avioswere with
British Air, I needed to change my booking strategy.
I called BA and discovered that I had plenty of
avios for a round-trip flight in premium class to London. In fact, 70,000 were all that was needed. I had
been receiving notices from BA for months, encouraging me to spend my avios with them. This was in
the beginning of March and my travel dates were
from the 20th of May until the 7th of July, with a
round-trip flight in between to Stockholm, Sweden
and a return to London.
With dates in hand, I called BA and was given to
their travel agent in Dehli, India. I told him my dates
and he informed me that there were no seats available.
Strange, I thought, so I told him to try the day before
or two days before or a day or two after May 20. Still,
no seats available in premium class on BA. No seats
at all for anyone? I asked. Oh yes, there were seats
available, just not for aviosonly if you pay for
them. It had taken me six years to save up these avios

and they had begged me to book with them. Now that
I wanted to, I was denied. Only with real money
could I get a seat. What do you have available on
those dates? I asked. There is one seat available on
economy, which you can have for fewer avios than
for premium class and get a booking to Sweden and
back to London as well. I have to admit I did not feel
joyful at this news.
I do not like to travel on a 12- to 13-hour flight
jammed in an economy seat, and I have learned to
love the semi-luxury of premium seats. Mentally I did
a dance, saving money versus comfort. No comfort
but more money to spend. In the end, money won and
I elected to book the flight. Then I asked what day I
booked to come home. Apparently, he had forgotten
to book that part of it. I had no plans of living in
Heathrow, London and I needed to get home on the
7th of July. Surprise! No seats with avios available,
even in economy.
Well, going is great and having a holiday is a pleasure, but I do love coming home. I felt my voice rising
and I exploded, feeling totally exploited. Spend your
money with us using our credit card, save your points
or avios with us so you can use them for a lovely free
trip! But, sorry, no seats are available for free. As I
was barking away, I became aware that my Indian
friend had hung up on me and I was shouting to the air.
Then it was decision time. I must admit, I opted for
the easiest and most pleasurable choice. I chose to fly
round-trip to London via Air New Zealand in their
premier class, which is miles above (fun pun) what
(909) 624-9063
British Air offers and pay the rather huge cost for the
comfort offered. I immediately called my friend
Helga, who is a travel agent. She found seats for me
but those sell quickly so I couldnt have the exact day
that I wanted nor at the lowest price offered. But I did
get my tickets.
I learned from a number of different agents that
working with British Air is neither easy nor a positive
experience and they seem to care little about how they
treat their customers. That is the main aspect a customer looks for when dealing with an airlineits
honesty and how one is treated. Throughout all of the
six years, they begged me to spend my hard-earned
avios with them, but then I discover that nothing is
available. No one really cares or is willing to deal
with things fairly. Even their charge card is not free
but, for the chance to save up my (now unusable
points) to take a free vacation of my choice, it seemed
worth it at the time to pay the yearly fee.
I will not renew my charge card, nor will I use the
points. To say that the trip is free is also not totally
correct. There are high taxes, which one must pay in
cash and, in the end, it would not actually be a free
trip. The other problem with BA points is that they are
not usable for any other plane fare but their own. I
once used some points I had with them for a hotel in
London, which was one of the poorest places I have
stayed in and located quite out of the way.
The point of all this is, in my experience, things are
not always what they seem to be. I have learned that I
have to check more carefully to find the truth in what
is offered. I have met so many people who tell me that
they enjoyed a great free trip using their card points or
airline points. I had great hopes that I, too, would
travel in these free flight paths. Sometimes you get
what you pay forand Air New Zealand suits me
fine.
Marilyn Browning
OBITUARIES
Homemaker, orchid grower, active volunteer

Marilyn Ruth Browning, a resident
of Claremont Manor, died on March
16, 2015. She was 89.
She was born in Los Angeles on July
11, 1925 to Hugo and Hannah Freed.
Mr. Freed was a renowned orchid
breeder and lecturer, who helped bring
the cultivation of orchids to the United
States. His brother, Arthur Freed,
worked for MGM, producing films like
The Wizard of Oz. In 1946, the
brothers joined forces, launching the
Arthur Freed Orchid Company in Malibu.
Marilyn graduated from Burbank
High School in 1943, where she went
to school with Robert Eugene Browning. They were married on September
7, 1946. The couple had two children,
Beth and Robert David Browning.
Mrs. Browning worked for the City
of Burbank for eight years. While her
children were young, she was a homemaker. Family shared that she was a
caring mother and a good cook who
made a killer Caesar salad. She would

prepare the dressing at the table as if
she were a server in a fine restaurant,
with the requisite raw egg, Worcester
sauce, cheese and anchovies all at the
ready in little dishes.
Every Friday in print. Every day online.

www.claremont-courier.com
Mrs. Browning carried on the family

tradition of orchid cultivation. Mr.
Browning built raised redwood benches
in the backyard where the couple grew
cymbidiums. Marilyn was constantly
giving orchids to friends and neighbors
and would sell some to a local florist
when the blooms were especially abundant and high in quality.
As the children grew older, she became very active as a volunteer at Saint
Joseph Hospital in Burbank. She was
also a longtime member of the Emmanuel Evangelical Free Church in
Burbank.
Later in life, Mr. and Mrs. Browning
became the honorary grandparents in
their Burbank neighborhood. They also
doted on their own grandchildren,
Melissa, Greg, Adam, Emily, Kevin
and Megan.
Mrs. Browning was an avid reader of
mysteries and was particularly fond of
Ellery Queen books, Agatha Christies
Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot series
and Earl Biggers Charlie Chan detective stories. She loved to travel and
went to many exotic places like
Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand, the
British Isles and Switzerland.
Marilyn and her husband had recently moved to Claremont to live
closer to family.
She is survived by her husband
Robert Eugene Browning; by her
daughter Beth Kremer; by her son
Robert David Browning and by six
grandchildren.
A celebration of Mrs. Brownings
life will be held at noon on April 4 at
Calvary Church, 1010 N. Tustin Ave. in
Santa Ana. Family and friends can call
(818) 903-8215 for information and/or
to RSVP.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests
that donations be made to St. Judes
Childrens Hospital at stjude.org or to
Wounded Warrior Project at wounded
warriorproject.org/donate.

Pat Yarborough
Reporter, loving mother and grandmother
Longtime COURIER reporter Patricia
Pat Lee Yarborough died on Wednesday, March 18, 2015 at the Pilgrim Place
Health Center. She was 80.
She was born on December 12, 1934 in
Riverside to Clifton and Leona McCasland. Her parents had come to California from the dustbowl area of Arkansas
and settled in the Coachella Valley, where
Mr. McCasland worked as a ranch manager on a raisin farm and later for the
Coachella Water District.
Young Pat had a reporters heart early
on, serving as editor of her newspaper at
Coachella Valley High School. After she
graduated in 1952, she attended UCLA.
That summer, her family rented a cabin in
the Eastern Sierra at Lake George near
Mammoth. Mutual friends introduced her
to a UCLA graduate named Gordon
Yarborough, whose uncle owned the
Tamarack Lodge at Twin Lakes.
Ms. Yarborough halted her studies
after they married in May of 1953, but
would remain an ardent Bruins booster
for the rest of her life. Mr. Yarborough
was on active duty in the Navy, serving
on an aircraft carrier. They lived in San
Francisco, Long Beach and Hawaii,
where their daughter Janet was born in
1955, before settling in Pomona. The
couple welcomed three more children,
Terry in 1954, Julie in 1958 and Dan in
1963.
During the kids growing-up years, Mr.
Yarborough worked for General Telephone and was in the Navy Reserve,
eventually retiring as a captain. Pat was a
homemaker and an enthusiastic participant in her childrens activities.
She served as editor of the PTA
newsletter at Montvue in Pomona where
the kids attended elementary school, and
was leader of her daughter Janets Camp
Fire Girls troop. She was proud of her
son Terrys efforts as a sports photographer for the Pomona High School newspaper and cheered for her son Dans
endeavors on the track teams in high
school and at Humboldt State University.
The Yarboroughs loved following the
exploits of the UCLA football team and
would host game-watching parties, fanning the flames of rivalry by inviting
friends whose allegiance was with the
USC Trojans. Ms. Yarborough was also a
true-blue Dodger fan, who venerated
play-by-play announcer Vin Scully.
The Yarboroughs continued to pay
homage to their meeting by taking their
family camping in Mammoth at Lake
George every year. They would stay a
couple weeks, with Ms. Yarborough fishing for hours at a time, catching more
trout than anyone and frying it up for
supper.
When her youngest son Dan left for
college, Ms. Yarborough took journalism
classes at Mt. San Antonio College and
worked on the Mounty newspaper, winning several awards. In 1983, she was
hired as a reporter with the COURIER
newspaper, joining the team helmed by
late publisher Martin Weinberger. Her
duties included covering the sports and
education beats. She also wrote obituar-
ies, viewing a well-written obit as the

perfect short story.
I challenge anybody not to find something of interest in a persons life. Sometimes you have to dig for it, but its always
there, Ms. Yarborough said in a 2005
COURIER profile.
Citrus College Trustee Sue Keith got to
know Ms. Yarborough when she was
doing public relations at Pitzer and CGU.
Ms. Keith recalls entering the COURIER
office and encountering a bastion of oldschool journalism.
Pats desk would be piled high with
news releases and pages
and Marty was the same
way. You could only see the
top of his head. They used
those ancient typewriters
that had those little coinlike letters.
They grew to be friends,
with Ms. Yarborough providing support when Ms.
Keith was battling breast
cancer, accompanying her
several times to treatment.
Pat had her feisty side,
but she was an amazingly
loyal friend, Ms. Keith
said. She was also extraordinarily dedicated to
education. She reported the bad and the
good about the schools, but she loved to
report the positive things that were happening for the kids in the community.
COURIER editor Kathryn Dunn met
Pat in 1993, when she took on a parttime position with the paper selling classified ads.
Pat seemed like a very serious person
because she was such a serious reporter,
Ms. Dunn said. Once you spent a little
time with her, however, you realized she
was fairly playful. She had a good sense
of humor and didnt take the news too seriously. She liked to laugh.
When Ms. Dunn became editor of the
COURIER in 2007, Ms. Yarborough was
characteristically good-natured. Pat had
such confidence in me, more than I had in
myself. She threw me her support, Ms.
Dunn recalled. But she also continued to
call me twerp, which I liked.
The job brought Ms. Yarborough a
number of memorable experiences, including traveling with fellow COURIER
writer Brenda Bolinger to Las Vegas,
New Mexico, a small town 65 miles east
of Santa Fe, for an obituary conference. It

was a chance to mingle with peers from
across the country and beyond who
shared a quirky avocation.
We enjoyed getting to know these interesting people and picking their brains
about their approach to obits. There were
a number of activities built into the conference, and we trekked to them all, Ms.
Bolinger recalled. We were also roommates and we were kind of like schoolgirls. There were two double beds in the
room and we stayed up and talked into the
night.
Another highlight of Ms. Yarboroughs
career took place in 2004, when she got
the chance to interview South African
bishop Desmond Tutu just weeks before it
was announced that he had won the Nobel
Peace Prize for his leadership in the antiapartheid movement.
In 1995, Gordon died of cancer. Ms.
Yarborough missed him deeply but found
comfort in friends and family and among
the congregation of the Claremont Presbyterian Church. Her final years were also
enlivened by the companionship a golden
retriever named Holly, a lost dog who
found a forever home with Pat.
Ms. Yarborough continued her work
for the COURIER, winning the Clare-
mont Unified School Districts Richard S.

Kirkendall Award for her consistent and
accurate coverage of schools. She traveled
regularly to visit her son and grandchildren in Bishop, always bringing back
fresh-baked bread or coffee cake from
Schats Bakery.
She also developed a number of interests, including a deepening fascination
with space exploration as she covered the
story of Claremonter Leo Bister and his
association with the Mars Rover program. Through this shared interest, and
their longtime association with the
American Red Cross, Ms. Yarborough
developed a decades-long friendship
with Leo and his wife Rosie.
She was really a very endearing person who loved giving everyone a window to look through, Ms. Bister said.
She was so perfect in her way of portraying her community.
Another of Ms. Yarboroughs enthusiasms was Cable Airport. She covered the
annual Cable Aire Faire and the Young
Eagle Program where young people are
taken on flights to encourage an interest
in piloting. She helped coordinate the airports Special Program for Special People
day, an event giving disabled students an
up-close look at aviation. Pat also became
a regular at the airport restaurant Maniac
Mikes.
Ms. Yarborough enjoyed spending time
with one of her best buddies, Howard
Bunte, a longtime El Roble Intermediate
School teacher and pilot who shared Pats
love for Cable and appreciated her interest in transportation of every ilk. She saw
it as people trying to stretch what is possible by working together, he said. She
soon picked up on Mr. Buntes enthusiasm for the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic
Railroad, a 64-mile-long narrow gauge
railroad dating to the late 19th century and
running between Chama, New Mexico
and Antonito, Colorado.
Pat had always been a ready traveler.
Over the course of her sons career in seasonal firefighting and forestry, Dan has
lived and worked in Alaska, Oregon,
Washington, Montana, Colorado and
Utah as well as California.Ms. Yarborough visited him in every location. She
also accompanied Mr. Bunte to New
Mexico three times, joining in railroad
preservation efforts. She rolled up her
sleeves and got dirty, helping the volunteers with painting and scraping.
Shortly before retiring in
2005, Ms. Yarborough made
her status as an honorary
Claremonter official, moving
into a condo in the City of
Trees. She remained on the
COURIER staff as a reporterat-large, filling in for a vacationing reporter and writing
obituaries at the personal request of Claremont families.
In the months preceding
her death, Ms. Yarborough
wrote obituaries for friends,
penned an article on a talk by
noted sportswriter Bill
Dwyre and provided regular updates on
her pet causes like Cable events, the Gold
Line and Red Cross blood drives, and the
preservation and improvement of the
citys cemetery as a longtime board member of the Friends of Oak Park Cemetery.
Up to the end, Pat kept a reporters notebook by her bedside, jotting down her
thoughts, the names of visitors and reminders to notify the COURIER of events
she considered coverage-worthy.
She is survived by her son Terry
Yarborough and his wife Joyce; by her
daughter Janet Siedschlag; by her daughter Julie Walters and her husband John;
and by her son Dan. She also leaves
grandchildren Sarah, Christine, Jamie,
Gordon, Mia, Clifton and Haley.
Memorial services will be held Saturday, April 4 at 1 p.m. at the Claremont
Presbyterian Church, 1111 N. Mountain
Ave.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be
made to the Friends of the Oak Park
Cemetery or to the Cable Airport Foundation, 1749 W. 13th St., Upland CA
91786.

OBITUARIES
Noted organist, composer, professor

Wilbur C. Held, nationally-known organist and composer, died at the Claremont Manor care center on March 24,
2015, seven months after his 100th birthday.
Dr. Held was born on August 20, 1914
in the Chicago suburb of Des Plaines. His
mother was an accomplished violinist,
and there was always music in his home
and church. While earning his bachelors
and masters degrees from the American
Conservatory of Music in Chicago, Mr.
Held became Leo Sowerbys assistant at
St. James Cathedral, an association that
lasted seven years. During this period, he
received the Fellowship Certificate of the
American Guild of Organists.
In 1946, Dr. Held joined the faculty of
Ohio State University, where he was professor of organ and church music for 30
years, as well as the organist-choirmaster
at the Trinity Episcopal Church of Columbus. During his tenure at OSU, he earned
a Doctorate of Sacred Music from the
In print and online
Union Theological Seminary in New

York. Through the years, Dr. Held studied
organ with Frank Van Dusen, Vernon de
Tar, Marcel Dupre and Andre Marchal. He
also studied composition with John
Palmer, Normand Lackwood and
Wallinford Riegger. He was long active
with the American Guild of Organists and
the Hymn Society of America, serving on
the national councils of both and appearing
as a recitalist at their national conventions.
Dr. Held started composing pieces for
the organ because, according to family, he
felt there was a lack of teaching material
aimed at developing style and registration.
His Nativity Suite, published in 1959,
has sold well over 30,000 copies. Dr. Held
then turned his attention to broadening the
organ repertoire for church use and composed 350 works for the organ.
He retired to Claremont in 1978, where
he continued to be active as a clinician,
recitalist and composer and served as organist in local churches.
claremont-courier.com 621 4761
Both the Los Angeles and Columbus

chapters of the American Guild of Organists awarded Dr. Held lifetime memberships for his service to the profession as a
teacher, composer and performer. On the
Sundays before and following his 100th
birthday, organists throughout the country played his compositions in his honor.
The Morning Star Publishing Company
published a commemorative centennial
edition featuring Dr. Helds life and
works.
Dr. Held is survived by his brother
David Held; his sister and brother-in-law
Miriam and James Hamilton; his son
Jonathan Held; his daughter and son-inlaw Linda and William Hazlett; his grandsons Jeremy Russell and Randy Hazlett;
his granddaughter Kelly Huerta; and five
great-grandchildren.
A memorial service for Dr. Held will be
held Sunday, March 29 at 4 p.m. at the
Claremont United Church of Christ, located at 233 W. Harrison Ave., Claremont.

CHS boys get marathon win in volleyball competition
fter losing the first

game on Tuesday,
Claremont High
School Varsity Volleyball
Coach Bernie Wendling told
his team to toughen up and
start focusing on the game. It
seemed to work, as the Wolfpack rallied to defeat visiting
Glendale High 3-2 in an exciting Pacific League match.
From the start, Glendale came out
swinging and forced Claremont to play
catch-up, with the Nitros doing a better
job of putting plays toSPORTING
gether with superior
LIFE
communication. The
Pack was moving a bit slower than in
years past and had a tough time handling what should have been easy shots,
giving Glendale the victory at 25-20.
However, the momentum shifted in
Claremonts favor in the next two
games, led by senior outside hitter
Trung Tran-Sampson, who had numerous serving aces as well as crushing
kills. The Pack easily put aside the Nitros in game two, 25-15, and then followed up with another decisive victory
in the third game, 25-16.
Game four was perhaps the toughest
of the night and the lead swung back
and forth until the very end. Tied at 17,
Glendale got four unanswered points
and held on until game point at 24-19.
But the Pack would not be put away,
getting the next three points and looking like they could pull off a surprise
win. The rally ended, however, when
Tran-Sampsons serve went long, giv-
CHS ROUND-UP
TRACK AND FIELD
Claremont High School track and
field dominated the small school division at the Chet Nicholson Relays last
Saturday at Norco High School. Both
girls and boys teams had numerous
first- place finishes and both won the
meet.
The girls took first place in the 400
shuttle hurdle relay, 400 relay, 1600
relay (8x200), 1600 sprint medley relay
and 4000 distance medley relay. In addition, the girls A and B teams took first
and second in the 3200 relay, as well as
first and third in the 1600 relay. They
took home second-place ribbons for the
400 relay and the 800 relay.
In field events, there was a five-way
tie for first in the high jump including
three Claremont athletesAbby Holt,
Lyling Irwin and Natalie Nguyen. Irwin
also took second in the pole vault.
The boys team took first in the 1600

ing Glendale the win at 25-22.

The excitement continued into the
15-point tiebreaker, with both teams
looking like they were destined to win
as the momentum shifted with the
score. For CHS, the game underscored
the work needed to improve their overall serving. Four times in a row Clare-

give away a point each time with bad
serves.
But Tran-Sampson would not be

second in the 800 relay. Special recognition goes to Jeremy Dvorak for winning the one-mile run.
Donovan Robinson had a very good
day in field events, taking second place
in the high jump and third in the long
jump. He also placed well in pole vault
and triple jump.
This is one of the oldest relay meets
in southern California, being the 40th
meet.
well as the 200 medley relay and 400

freestyle relay. Freshman Mark Jareankitja swam the 100 backstroke in
59.07, the 200 freestyle in 2:03.66, the
200 medley relay and the 200 freestyle
relay. Ben Eagleton also put up some
impressive swims in the 200 medley
relay, the 50 freestyle in 23.28, the 100
freestyle in 52.77 and the 200 freestyle
relay.
SWIMMING
The Claremont High School girls and
boys swim teams lost their meet against
Ayala Wednesday in Chino Hills. The
final team scores were 120-50 for the
girls and 109-61 for the boys. The varsity team as a whole struggled, even
with some strong individual performances.
For the girls, junior Sam Duran
swam the 100 butterfly in 59.52 and the
500 freestyle in 5:21.45 individually as
SOFTBALL
Girls softball didnt play this week
and the next scheduled game is April 7.
The Pack did take third place in the
Charter Oak tournament wining three
out of four games.
GOLF
Varsity golf lost a very close match,
223-234, against South Hills High at
South Hills Country Club. Top scores
came from Jonathan Yoo at 38, Andrew
Im and Paul Yu at 45, Kyle Cohen at 51
and Matt Stanford at 55.
We will take the win. It wasnt

pretty but they dont give style points in
our game, Coach Wendling said after
the game. We made way too many unforced errors. We have to learn to serve
better in a clutch, and we are hitting the
ball hard but its going all over the
court.
Much of what makes high school
sports so tough is that star players are
constantly graduating. For the Pack,
their past dominance in boys volleyball
is now only in the record books. Coach
Wendling only has two players with
varsity experience, meaning some errors can be attributed to nerves.
A month ago, half of these guys had
not played volleyball before. So a
month from now, well see, he said.
Looking at the season ahead, Coach
Wendling is positive but resigned that it
may not be easy.
For us, our challenge is to make the
playoffs. We understand we are no
longer the elite team of the Pacific
League, which is hard, given that we
have that big banner up there that says
weve won a lot. We are going to have
to fight a lot, but it is in us.
Player of the game honors have to go
to Tran-Sampson, who had an excellent
overall game.
I just wanted to hit the ball really
hard, he said immediately after the
game. I think [this season] is going to
be fun. We still have a lot of work to
do, but I think it can be really good.
The victory brings the boys record
to 2-4 overall and 1-1 in league.
The junior varsity team defeated

South Hills 250-302, with Spencer
Sharp shooting a 47.
BASEBALL
Claremont baseball lost two games
this week including their season opener
away game against South Hill last Friday. In a pitchers duel, Claremont gave
up two hits and one run but only got a
single hit and lost 1-0.
On Tuesday, there was more hitting
but unfortunately no better result for the
Pack as they lost to Glendora 8-4.
Glendora got on the board first with
two runs in the second, but Claremont
answered in the third with three. Glendora scored again in the third and fifth
innings, but really put the game away
with four big runs in the sixth. Claremont answered with one run in the seventh but it was too little too late.
The boys are now 4-4 overall, 0-2 in
league.

TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at
a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not
on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a
trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to
free and clear ownership of the property. You
should also be aware that the lien being auctioned
off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible
for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the
property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that
may exist on this property by contacting the county
recorder's office or a title insurance company, either
of which may charge you a fee for this information.
If you consult either of these resources, you should
be aware that the same lender may hold more than
one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date
shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one
or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the
California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made
available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to
those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn
whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if
applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the
sale of this property, you may call (714) 730-2727
or visit this Internet Web site www.servicelinkasap.com, using the file number assigned
to this case 12-19022. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur
close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or
on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify
postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Dated: 3/5/2015 Law Offices of Les

the will or estate, or both, of CYRENE WAGONER
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by
JAMIE ELLAN WAGONER in the Superior Court
of California, County of Los Angeles.

THE PETITION requests the decedents will and
codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and
any codicils are available for examination in the file
kept by the court.
The PETITION requests authority to administer the
estate under the Independent Administration of Estates
Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions,
however, the personal representative will be required
to give notice to interested persons unless they have
waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)
The independent administration authority will be
granted unless an interested person files an objection
to the petition and shows good cause why the court
should not grant the authority.
A HEARING ON THE PETITION WILL BE
HELD IN THIS COURT AS FOLLOWS:
Date: April 10, 2015 Time: 8:30 A.M. in Dept. 9
located at:
Superior Court Of California, County Of Los Angeles,
111 North Hill Street
Los Angeles, CA 90012
Central District
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition,
you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a CONTINGENT
CREDITOR OF THE DECEDENT, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within
the later of either (1) four months from the date of
first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58 (b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of
mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under
section 9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You may
want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable
in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE THE FILE KEPT BY THE
COURT. If you are a person interested in the estate,
you may file with the court a Request for Special
Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory
and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or
account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.
A Request for Special Notice form is available from
the court clerk.

POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that
there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction
does not automatically entitle you to free and clear
ownership of the property. You should also be aware
that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien.
If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are
or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior
to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged
to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance
company, either of which may charge you a fee for
this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust
on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY
OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale
may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to
Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law
requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If
you wish to learn whether your sale date has been
postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time
and date for the sale of this property, you may call
(800) 280-2832 or visit this Internet Web site
www.auction.com, using the file number assigned to
this case 14-2740-11. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur
close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on
the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC
HEARING ON THE
POMONA COLLEGE
2015 CAMPUS MASTER
PLAN EIR, MASTER
PLAN, AND ASSOCIATED ACTIONS
The Claremont Planning Commission will hold a
public hearing on April 7, 2015, to consider the
Pomona College 2015 Campus Master Plan Project. The public is invited to comment on the Final
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the project,
the Master Plan, and associated actions, including a
proposed Change of Zone.
23
Project Location: The project area (also Plan Area

or campus in the EIR) is the campus of Pomona
College in the City of Claremont, County of Los Angeles, California. The campus of Pomona College is
approximately 140 acres, and is roughly bounded by
First Street on the south, Eighth Street on the north,
Harvard Avenue on the west, and Mills and Amherst
Avenues on the east.
Project Description: The proposed project consists of a long-range Master Plan for planned future improvements to the Pomona College campus
over a period of 15 years from the date of City approval of the Master Plan, plus associated actions.
The broad parameters of the Master Plan may be
summarized as follows:
Enrollment increase of 50 students (from 1,590 to
1,640 students), a net increase of 26 student beds
on campus (from 1,534 to 1,560 beds), an increase
of 30 faculty (from 192 to 222 faculty), and an increase of 30 staff (from 495 to 525 staff).
Removal of up to 126,700 gross square feet of
existing facilities and construction of up to
608,200 gross square feet of new facilities, for a
net increase of 205,400 gross square feet of structural development.
A net increase of 18 on-campus parking spaces.
Campus lot coverage would increase from approximately 16% to approximately 18%.
Pedestrian and bicycle improvements to improve
safety and clarify pedestrian and vehicular circulation patterns.
New and remodeled open spaces such as courtyards, plazas, walkways, streetscapes, and landscaping.
The project also includes related actions that would
provide for implementation of the Master Plan and
some of which are proposed concurrently with the
Master Plan. These other actions include a change in
zone from RM 2,000 (Medium Density Residential,
Minimum Lot Area/Unit: 2,000 Square Feet) to IE
(Institution Educational) for four parcels (APN #s
8313-018-004, 8313-018-005, 8313-018-006, and
8313-018-007), totaling approximately 54,000
square feet (1.24 acres) located in the block between
College Avenue, Bonita Avenue, Harvard Place, and
Second Street, in order to make their zoning designation consistent with their General Plan land use
designation of Institution.
The proposed project would require the following
entitlements:
Approval of the Master Plan.
Approval of the Change of Zone discussed above.
Lot merger of the four parcels discussed above, and
other lot mergers or lot line adjustments for other individual projects as required for implementation of
the Master Plan.
Design review approval of all new construction,
building relocations, and other site changes.
Approval of a permit from the Director of Community Services for removal of any street tree.
Approval of a Special Use and Development Permit for any temporary construction trailers or other
temporary construction-related uses, as applicable.
Ministerial and ancillary permits required to
carry out individual projects under the Master
Plan, such as demolition permits, building permits, and occupancy permits.
Public Hearing: The Planning Commission will
hold the public hearing on April 7, 2015, beginning
at 7:00 p.m., in the City Council Chamber, 225 W.
Second Street, Claremont. At the conclusion of the
public hearing, the Planning Commission is expected
to make recommendations to the City Council on the
EIR, Master Plan, and Change of Zone. The City
Council will make the final decisions. Further notice will be provided when the items are scheduled
for consideration by the City Council.
Environmental Review: The City of Claremont has
prepared the Final EIR for the proposed Master Plan
and associated actions in accordance with CEQA
statutes, and local rules and guidelines of Claremont
for implementing CEQA. The Final EIR evaluates
the proposed projects potential to significantly impact the environment and identifies ways to reduce or
avoid environmental impacts through mitigation
measures and alternatives to the project. With implementation of the mitigation measures, it was determined that all identified impacts of the project
could be mitigated to below a level of significance,
except for an unavoidable significant cultural resource impact from the demolition of the Thatcher
Music Building, and an unavoidable significant noise
impact during construction. Staff recommends the
adoption of a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the project, as the benefits of the project outweigh the potential unavoidable adverse impacts of
the project.

regular business hours at the following locations:

I can't say enough about Mason's easy-going professionalism. I have

worked with many real estate agentsbuying and selling a homesome
good and some not so good, but Mason stands above the rest. Although a
busy agent, he made us feel like we were his only clients. It is obvious that
Mason takes pride in his work and helped us through what has usually
been a very stressful process. We were always informed, updated and met
personally when needed. There was never pressure, unnecessary stress or
unanswered questions. I will recommend everyone I know to Mason!
