Westfield to Open Wednesday!

Valley FavoritesOpening Up!

See Pages 6&8

With L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti’s announcement Wed-nesday that retail stores could open to the public, not just offer curbside pickup, Westfield announced that they will re-open for the community. Westfield Topanga & The Village will open Wednesday, June 3.

The centers will operate with modified hours, 11 am to 7 pm Monday through Saturday, and 12 pm to 6 pm on Sunday, and will implement relevant government-mandated health and safety protocols as well as provide new services and amenities to address customer concerns during this initial recovery phase in the community.

“We are very excited to welcome the Los Angeles community back to our centers,” said Molly Unger, Vice President, Shopping Center Management. “As we take this next step towards recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, our focus is on working with local officials to ensure a healthy, clean and safe environment for our customers, tenants and employees. We remain committed to providing the best experience possible as business begins to operate again.”

Westfield will implement new practices focused on the health, safety, and convenience of all guests, as well as retailer and center employees. They include:

• Increasing the frequency of cleaning measures following CDC and local health department guidelines, with a focus on high-touch areas such as restrooms, play areas, dining areas, and water fountains;

• Monitoring and controlling the number of guests entering the centers and crowds in dwell areas and queuing lines;

• Implementing and enforcing relevant policies related to social distancing, face masks and other preventative measures; and

• Providing an increased number of hand sanitizer stations.

In addition, the centers are

working with select retailers and third-party operators to facilitate curbside pick-up to make it as easy as possible for customers to quickly and safely collect purchases. More details on these programs are available from individual retailers.

Westfield will also continue to offer its Answers on the Spot program, which provides a real-time response via text or webchat during business hours daily to answer questions about store and center hours, promotions, and other topics.

The company will also continue its #WestfieldCares program, aimed at helping

some of the most vulnerable populations impacted by the crisis in the local community. The program includes making monetary and in-kind donations to local organizations that serve groups such as those experiencing homelessness, economically disadvantaged families, seniors, and children along with activities thanking local first responders and medical professionals.

Further information including individual retailer and restaurant operating hours, health and safety practices, local #WestfieldCares initiatives and other programs can be found by visiting westfield.com/topanga.

The Los Angeles City Council has unanimously approved Councilmember Bob Blumenfield’s motion that would increase the penalty for littering used masks, gloves and other forms of used PPE. If you toss your used protective gear in a shopping cart, on the pavement or parking lot, the fine is now $250 if you’re caught.

“As the COVID-19 emergency continues, using PPE properly is one of the most important things we can all do to stay safe. But as its use has increased, we have seen a disturbing trend of littering this potentially dangerous waste on sidewalks, in parking lots, along green ways and sometimes even right next to a public trash can. The littering of ones gloves or masks is particularly pernicious because many of the people doing it are doing so because they believe that these items might be contaminated! This is not only disrespectful, but dangerous to the community and to the workers who end up cleaning up their toxic mess.”

What’s Open Now, What’s Not

City Planning Commission Unanimously

Approves Modified Promenade Plan

As the world slowly continues to reopen in stages, the city and county of Los Angeles will now allow churches, apartment complex pools, retail shops, flea markets and drive-in movie theaters to resume operations.

With these establish-ments adjusting to reopening, practices will be put in place to ensure the safety of operators and patrons. Face coverings will be required by all, six feet distancing will still be practiced and stores will be limiting capacity. Churches must adhere to limiting congregants by 25% and retail establishments must open for business at 50% capacity. Los Angeles continues to be the

epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak so openings have gone through a slower and more detailed process of reopening. Personal hygiene establishments such as salons and beauty parlors are not yet allowed to resume practices in Los Angeles. All of these actions fall under Stage 3 of reopening California amidst coronavirus.

After hours of deliberation at a Zoom public hearing Thursday, the Los Angeles City Planning Commission unanimously approved Westfield’s Promenade 2035 modified plan.

There were three appellants who opposed the plan, and public comments both pro and con. Appellant’s arguments included turning a portion of the project into a cancer center, adding a full service police station and banning plastic container use on the site.

Supporting the modified plan was Councilman Bob Blumenfield, with conditions, as

well as community organizations including the Woodland Hills Homeowners Organization, VICA, Valley Economic Alliance, Valley Cultural Center, Warner Center Association, West Valley Warner Center Chamber of Commerce, Los Angeles Sports and Entertainment Commission, Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce and more.

The major issues were the size and scope of the Entertainment and Sports Center (ESC) and the percentage of housing dedicated to low income

The Board of Directors of the Agoura Hills/Calabasas Community Center Joint Powers Authority met on Thursday, May 21, to discuss the financial status of the Community Center and the potential for an extended temporary closure.

After reviewing the Center’s major losses during the COVID- 19 pandemic and the liabilities that the Center will be responsible for in the next six months, the Board made the terribly hard decision to temporarily shut down operations as of June 1, with an anticipated re-opening in January 2021. Regularly scheduled programs will not be held during the temporary closure; however, the Center is working on alternate solutions for all programs and will keep the participants and the public updated as these decisions are made.

During the time that the Center doors are closed, the JPA Board of Directors, the Executive Director, and the two cities will work together to revitalize the Center with a plan that is sustainable and best serves the communities’ current and future needs. The Directors and staff want the community to be involved in this process and are looking for the community to share ideas, programs, and needs with the Board to help them make sure that the Center can remain a vital piece of the community. Reach out to Brianne Anderson, Executive Director at [email protected] to share comments regarding the Center in 2021 and beyond.

hopeWorld War II veteran Herb Brooks, above, celebrated his 101st

birthday on May 20, surrounded by his family - daughters Jacqueline, Collette and Joyce. His blushing bride Rachelle, at his left, will celebrate 100 on November 10. Brooks served in Africa during the war, and met Rachelle in Egypt. The North African campaign of the Second World War took place in North Africa from 10 June 1940 to 13 May 1943. It included campaigns fought in the Libyan and Egyptian deserts and in Morocco and Algeria, as well as Tunisia. (Fun fact: troops being sent to Africa actually trained outside of Palm Springs, at Camp Young Desert Training Center, which had a similar climate and terrain.)

After the war the Brooks settled in Cleveland and then moved to Los Angeles to raise their family.

Drive-by birthdays are the norm under COVID-19. But all birthdays are cause for celebration, and Shelley Stern’s 70th (at left) was certainly that. Over 55 cars with 100 friends and family drove by their house in Woodland Hills to celebrate her big day. Signs, horns, balloons and more signaled the celebration.Stern and her husband Mark are the long-time owners of Savinar Luggage on Topanga Canyon Blvd. in Canoga Park.

Word on the Street

• Michelle Goldwater checks in with this wisdom from the great old sage Will Rogers: “Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me; I want people to know ‘why’ I look this way. I’ve traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren’t paved.”

• Thought for the day: Anger is one letter short of danger!

• Some days we are driven to drink. Other days we’re driven to write jokes about drinking. So here goes. A jumper cable walks into a bar and asks for a drink. The bartender tells him “OK, but don’t start anything.” A dyslexic person walks into a bra...

• Another? Stefania Simmons, a teacher, tells the one about the teacher who asked her first graders to spell the word “straight.” One little boy spelled it correctly so the teacher asked him what the word meant. “It means without ice,” he replied without hesitation.

• How do you know the difference between a chess player and a civil servant? Ans> The chess player moves every now and then.

• Didja’ hear about the narcissist’s narcissist? His favorite game was strip solitaire.

• If you toss a penny 10,000 times, it will not be heads 5,000 times, but more like 4,950. The head picture weighs more, so it ends up on the bottom.

• Why do you press the buttons harder on the remote control when you know the batteries are dead?

I had friends who couldn’t wait to run to Ventura County to eat dinner in a restaurant.

I have other friends who will only Zoom with people and aren’t ready to go out.

Personally I have a 91-year-old mother I still see and am protecting her, so dining out and dishing with friends at cocktail hour is out.

I’ve had to explain myself to certain people as to why I’m being so cautious, even now that things are opening. Other friends just accept it and say, “I’ll catch you when...”

And we all should just live and let live. I don’t want to get into politics here or the why’s and wherefore’s of Newsom and Garcetti. I don’t want to talk about how the virus started or how it will end.

I do want to talk about letting each person - and business - choose what’s right for them. I’m thrilled that things are easing up so business owners can get back to business.

Our front page talks about Westfield and their stores reopening, with guidelines and procedures in place.

More power to them, and to those that can’t wait to get to the mall. Spend money locally. Support our local businesses. Help our troubled retailers regain their momentum.

I’m just not ready to join you.Don’t judge me. I’ve made

my decision on what’s best for me and my family. Right now I’m able to run the newspapers from home. News goes on no matter what else is going on in the world. We’re publishing every week and getting the word out. I’m just doing it from my dining room table.

I don’t reprint a lot of what’s on Facebook, but loved this sentiment from Ed Peisner’s page. Peisner, in addition to being a longtime valley resident, is also

founder of the #jordanstrong anti-bullying campaign. His words ring true, whether they’re directed at teens or adults.

Here goes:As we start to open up....

you do you, I’ll do me. That’s what America’s about. None of us have the same circumstances (medically high risk child/family member or a business about to go under, etc.). Let’s all stay in our own lanes and keep the judgment down as we begin to reopen. No one should feel pressured

either way. Just a thought....... - Some people don’t agree

with the state opening.... that’s okay. Be kind.

- Some people are still planning to stay home.... that’s okay. Be kind.

- Some are still scared of getting the virus and a second wave happening....that’s okay. Be kind.

- Some are sighing with relief to go back to work knowing they may not lose their business or their homes....that’s okay. Be

kind.- Some are thankful they can

finally have a surgery they have put off....that’s okay. Be kind.

- Some will be able to attend interviews after weeks without a job....that’s okay. Be kind.

- Some will wear masks for weeks....that’s okay. Be kind.

- Some people will rush out to get their hair or nails done.... that’s okay. Be kind.

The point is, everyone has different viewpoints/feelings and that’s okay. Be kind.

We each have a different story. If you need to stay home, stay home. But be kind.

If you need to go out, just respect others when in public and be kind!

Don’t judge fellow humans because you’re not in their story. We all are in different mental states than we were months ago. So remember, be kind.

As we start to open up - you do you, I’ll do me. Let’s all stay in our own lanes and keep the judgment down...

From Laura LevinskySomething I’ve noticed on my daily walk and very infrequent

forays on to Ventura Blvd. - lots of people outside – nobody wearing a mask! Aren’t we under orders to wear a mask when outside? Do people really not care about life that much?

I wear a mask every time I go out. If I am going further than my attached-to-the-house mailbox, a mask is on my face. Yet people are walking through my neighborhood all the time without masks. I get that they are uncomfortable and people don’t like them. I didn’t like having to learn to walk again after cancer surgery, but I did it. And yes, the physical therapist made me wear a mask then too.

I really don’t understand the people who walk their dogs all through the neighborhood but refuse to wear a mask while doing it. Do you think the dog somehow gives you immunity? That dog is not going to

This week the Los Angeles City Council unanimously supported Councilmember Bob Blumenfield’s measure to extend expiring conditional use permits (CUP) and cut other bureaucratic hurdles to help local businesses survive. The City of LA does not have unlimited resources to assist small businesses. However, following Councilmember Blumenfield’s lead, the City has now taken steps to eliminate some financial and regulatory burdens on local businesses affected by the Coronavirus COVID-19 Emergency Declaration.

“As the COVID-19 crisis continues to leave many of our small businesses vulnerable to closure, now is the time to cut the red tape and do everything we can to help empower our local restaurants so they can thrive” said Blumenfield. “Local businesses are the lifeblood of our communities and during this emergency, I don’t want to see planning permits get in the way of these stores that are providing essential services.”

Blumenfield’s motion specifically calls to: Extend all expiring conditional use permits for a period of 12 months after expiration of the Coronavirus COVID-19 Emergency Declaration; Suspend any requirement that a property owner or business provide additional parking in connection with a change of use in an existing structure and suspend any condition requiring a property owner or business to provide off-site or valet parking. All of these actions have sunset clauses between six months and one year after the end of the Emergency Declaration.

protect either of us from Covid 19.How about some basic

manners when we are out? Like wear a mask AND make an effort to stay six feet away. Somehow people seem to think that if they are outside, or shopping in a grocery store, social distancing doesn’t matter. I’m really tired of people thinking that they are immune to germs just because they want to be in the space I currently occupy. Don’t walk or run next to me, don’t stand and have a conversation when you know you are standing between me and my house, and don’t stand behind and reach around me at the grocery store.

Think about it. You don’t know if I have been tested or not (I have and it was negative), have had the virus or just don’t care. It is not just me I am protecting with my mask, it is you too. I’m keeping my germs from you. Are you so narcissistic that you don’t care about anyone but yourself? You’re willing to take a chance that you don’t have Covid 19 that you’ll risk MY life over it? Well, thanks. That is really caring about others.

I don’t really care about if you have been tested or not. It is swell if you have, but it only tests up to the time that swab goes into your body. You could come in contact with the virus 10 minutes later and the results of that test won’t help you at all.

This isn’t about infringing on your civil liberties. If you can abide by “no shoes, no shirt, no service” you can abide by wearing a mask. A business has every right to make you wear a mask as part of the conditions to shop there. They already make you wear shoes and a shirt, why not a mask?

I know we all want to get back to “normal” and be able to go where we want, when we want. We want businesses and restaurants to be able to fully open up. We want beaches and hiking trails open. But we aren’t going to get there by spreading germs, breathing on each other, or walking around sharing our germs. It just doesn’t make sense.

Where a mask, stay six feet away and everything will be fine.

Blue Dog Brings Back Beer, Wings & More

At Home With…, the series launched by the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association, Classical KUSC, welcomes back LA Phil Music & Artistic Director Gustavo Dudamel joined by legendary conductor/composer John Williams, Tuesday, June 2, at 6 pm.

The artists, each broadcasting from their respective homes, speak with KUSC host Brian Lauritzen as they share their curated musical selections along with their personal reflections on the music and their experience of our current moment.

The limited-run series evolved in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the temporary closures of cultural venues across the world and Dudamel’s desire to continue sharing music with audiences when it’s needed most.

In addition to Dudamel, the At Home With… series over the past six weeks has featured such notable artists as LA Phil Conductor Laureate Esa-Pekka

Stay “At Home With” John Williams and Dudamel

Salonen, LA Phil Creative Chair John Adams, pianist Yuja Wang, Hollywood Bowl Orchestra Principal Conductor Thomas Wilkins, violinist Ray Chen, pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet, LA

Phil Principal Guest Conductor Susanna Mälkki, and several LA Phil musicians, each sharing their perspectives on the healing power of music.

“This series has been a beautiful way to stay connected and inspired through this difficult time,” said Dudamel, “allowing us to be ‘alone together’ during the quarantine. Having my dear friend John Williams join me for the finale is a perfect end to this journey, and it’s such a privilege to share the music we love, and the reasons why we love it, with listeners around the world.”

At Home With Gustavo Dudamel and John Williams will be broadcast locally on Classical KUSC, the episode will also be syndicated nationally through a partnership with PRX and available for streaming internationally.

Listen to KUSC over the air on 91.5 FM, streaming live on KUSC.org, on the free iOS and Android apps or via apps and smart speakers.

Blue Dog is back! The restaurant and beer

tavern, closed until this week due to COVID-19, has reopened with a fresh look and fresh menu to go.

Don’t worry - staples such as their huge selection of craft and imported beer, stellar burger, wings and outrageous desserts remain.

The burger is now a grass-fed, organic beef burger. There are also a barbecue brisket and

pulled-pork sandwich.Lighter choices include a

chicken Caesar wrap, salads, several sandwiches and more. Start with edamame hummus or the “world’s best avocado toast,” according to owner Paul Scrivano.

Those in training or wanting to shake loose of the isolation-induced pounds can try the 100% vegan, 100% clean power wrap - rice, edamame, avocado, blueberries and broccoli in a

spinach wrap. “This is what you eat if you’re really going for it!” said Scrivano.

Of course if you’re not, there are the new strawberry chocolate chip cookies (at right) or the “brimie” - a triple-cream brie brownie.

Blue Dog is also selling beer and wine to go.

The restaurant is open noon to 8 pm. To order visit Postmates or Grubhub or call (818) 990-Blue. Walk-in orders also accepted at 4524 Saugus Avenue, Sherman Oaks.

Pizza Cookery Thousand Oaks Opens for Dine-In

By Theda Kleinhans ReichmanSpring has sprung and summer

is looming in the not too distant future. Hopefully this dreadful coronavirus will soon come to an end and our lives will return to pre-virus normal so we can all venture out and about.

On the plus side we have had time to bond with our families for days...and days and days. While this is great, it would be nice to go for a walk with friends, dine in a restaurant or see a show in a movie theater once again.

Since that has not been possible my husband and I have been catching up on last year’s Oscar nominated films. We’ve screened “Marriage Story,” “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” (great fun with Oscar winner Brad Pitt), “Joker,” “Parasite” and this past week we watched the World War I drama “1917.”

English director Sam Mendes, inspired by stories told to him by his grandfather Alfred Mendes, co-wrote the screenplay for “1917” with Krysty Wilson-Cairns.

As the film begins, two young British soldiers, Lance Cpl. Schofield (George MacKay) and Lance Cpl. Blake (Dean-Charles

World War I Drama ‘1917’ Now On DVDChapman) are sent on a mission by their general (Colin Firth). They are instructed to deliver a warning to the Second Battalion of the Devonshire Regiment which is about to attack fleeing German

f o r c e s . But the G e r m a n retreat is actually a ruse by the G e r m a n s to wipe out the British b a t t a -l i o n ’ s 1 , 6 0 0

troops. If the two soldiers are successful in time they will be able to save countless lives. But to succeed they must pass through dangerous enemy held territory.

There are many famous faces in the cast that includes Colin Firth, Benedict Cumberbatch and Richard Madden.

“1917” is rated R for violence and some disturbing images and language. Running time is 2 hours.

On the silly side you might want to check out “Birds of Prey” about the fantastic emancipation of Harley Quinn. This quirky tale features a cop, a psycho and a Mafia princess and is told by Harley Quinn.

There are plenty of extra features that include a gag reel, “Sanity is so Last Season, Birds of Prey: Birds of a Feather” and more. Rated “R.”

Exactly one year after closing his iconic Woodland Hills restaurant, Pizza Cookery owner Jordan Klempner is opening his Thousand Oaks eatery again for full dine-in and take out service.

The restaurant at 75 W. Thousand Oaks Blvd. was closed due to the coronavirus quarantine, but Klempner says they are now open daily at 11:30 am, closing Sunday to Thursday at 8 pm and Friday and Saturday at 9.

The Thousand Oaks restaurant offers the same menu favorites as did Woodland Hills, including pizza, pasta, salads and more. There is also a vegetarian and gluten-free menu.

Don’t forget their famous garlic rolls - a must with any meal. There is now a full bar and live entertainment will be in place mid-June.

All Ventura County guidelines for restaurants will be adhered to, including how many diners can enter the restaurant. Six foot social distancing is made possible by seating at every other booth. Tables are spread apart, and the restaurant uses

special sanitizing procedures.All staff, most of whom are

the same as served in Woodland Hills, are wearing gloves and masks. Diners are required to wear masks entering the restaurant but not while eating. All condiments are individually packaged.

“We are trying to make the restaurant as normal as we can,” said Klempner. “Our patrons will find the same great Pizza

Cookery menu and their favorite items. Though the restaurant is new, we brought many of the same accessories from the old restaurant to Thousand Oaks.”

Patrons can see familiar lighting, signs, memorabilia and more - even the wood on the walls used to grace the Woodland Hills location.

The pandemic may have forced LA Opera to cancel its annual Great Opera Choruses concert at The Soraya, so the family-friendly event will now join the company’s new LAO at Home programming lineup, moving online for a virtual concert on June 7.

Grant Gershon, the company’s Resident Conductor, leads the concert, spotlighting three famous choruses from popular works. The grand finale, the Anvil Chorus from Verdi’s Il Trovatore, will feature audience participation—viewers of any (or no) musical ability can sing along at home, with lyrics provided onscreen, and kids will love the opportunity to hammer on kitchen pots and pans for the perfect sound effects. Co-hosted by LA Opera and The Soraya, the concert will feature Jeremy Frank, LA Opera’s Associate Chorus Master, as pianist and music supervisor.

The concert hits home screens at 3 pm on June 7, via LA Opera’s Facebook page.

By Janey RifkinThere is growing alarm in

both Italy and the U.K. over a rare blood-vessel disease among young children.

Symptoms of Kawasaki include stomach pain, skin rashes and a high fever.

“At a time when we are seeing a spike in coronavirus infections, we are also seeing a spike in Kawasaki, according to Dr. Lucio Verdoni, a pediatrician of Bergamo’s Papa Giovanni hospital, Italy.

The differences and the jump in Kawasaki-like cases highlights how doctors are still piecing together how Covid-19 works and if there is a connection among both diseases. The disease is seldom life-threatening, but the symptoms recorded recently are more severe. Children are now more often needing intensive-care treatment, show positive testing for antibodies of past infections and can cause lasting heart problems if left untreated.

Formerly, perhaps about five cases of Kawasaki were diagnosed and treated in a year’s time while those numbers have increased four-fold and children beyond five years of age are now also coming down with the disease. Clinicians are discovering that currently youngsters with this diagnosis can also suffer heart

involvement and show an effect on the brain in little understood ways.

Kawasaki disease is not well understood. Its cause is unknown although it has been associated with viral infections such as influenza and interestingly other corona viruses, a family of viruses that includes those responsible for the common cold. Most children

who are treated do not experience lasting effects.

Medical researchers in the United States are attempting to uncover the link, if there is one, of tying the children’s sickness to the Covid-19. They encourage parents of young children who show symptoms of high fever, stomach pain and skin rashes to consult their physicians. As we learn more and more about coronavirus, we may find the mystery of how and why young children are and are not protected from Covid-19 as we now know it. In any event, there is an epidemiological link that is hard to ignore.

Got Mask? Get One and Help a Needy Senior

www.SeniorResourcesCA.com www.Suddenly65.com

Seniors are one of the most vulnerable populations during this coronavirus crisis. Often they are unable to get out to shop or get the resources they need.

One thing under current mandate that seniors - and all L.A. County residents - need, is a mask.

Senior Resources, Inc., and Suddenly65, two local organizations that service seniors, have been donating masks to charities during COVID-19.

They have teamed up with MAPS Charities to donate funds to our local senior population. Purchase a “Got Mask” logo mask and the funds go to help seniors in need and their families.

MAPS Charities is a non-profit organization in the valley started by senior-care professionals who have provided volunteer services

to seniors for years. Social workers and healthcare professionals rely on help from MAPS to assist seniors in need.

Proceeds from the “Got Mask” fundraiser will provide a safety net for seniors who cannot

afford vital items that keep them safe and independent.

One mask is only $7.50 plus $1.50 shipping. Prices per mask decrease the more you buy. You can also donate to MAPS with any order, or purchase a mask and then donate it to a first responder.

Purchase masks at www.seniorresourcesca.com or by emailingSandy Rosenholz at [email protected] or calling him at (818) 359-2125.

Senior Resources Inc., a senior care advisor covering Los Angeles and Ventura counties in Southern California brings independent, assisted, memory care, hospice and in-home care options to seniors and their families. Owner Rosenholz says, “We don’t just find a place for Mom or Dad; we make sure it’s the right place.”

Blood is needed now more than ever! Help the American Red Cross ensure blood is available for those in need by donating today. Donating blood makes a big difference in the lives of others and given current circumstances, donation numbers are down. ONEgeneration, in partnership with the American Red Cross, will be hosting a blood drive on Sunday, May 31, from 7 am to 1 pm, at the Encino Farmers Market (17400 Victory Blvd). To schedule your life-saving appointment, visit redcrossblood.org and use sponsor code: onegeneration.

Local Blood Drive This Sunday

The County has launched a Critical Delivery Services program to deliver food and other vital items to adults age 60+ and individuals with disabilities who are unable to leave their homes due to COVID-19. Items must be prepaid and ready for pick-up. There is no cost to the client for delivery. For more information, call (888) 863-7411.

By Kevin Pike Have you thought about

selling your home before this pandemic, only to change your mind believing the real estate market is going to be dead with little to no activity?

Are you afraid of having buyers trek through your home potentially bringing the virus with them?

Certainly, the first couple of weeks back in March were confusing with much of our economy mostly grinding to a halt. However, since March, the real estate market has proven to be more resilient than you might imagine. Fewer people are worrying about contracting the virus through showings, providing necessary precautions are taken.

In fact, over 1,500 properties sold in Los Angeles just within the past sixty days! My listings have received multiple offers and the demand in Southern California still outweighs the lack of inventory.

But is it safe to currently list your home?

As real estate professionals, we quickly implemented proper protocols to help assure that both buyers and sellers remain safe

Holding Off Selling Your Home Due to COVID-19?Current Market Trends May Make You Think Twice!

throughout the entire process. We have all parties sign a

disclosure identifying potential health risks associated with viewing properties. In addition, we no longer hold open houses, and require all potential buyers walking through properties to wear face masks, gloves and shoe coverings. Plus, we limit all physical contact with any surfaces to help limit potential contamination.

Personally, I make sure all of my buyers fully adhere to these protocols and oversee all showings to verify full compliance.

Some people are also worried about a possible global recession as a result of this pandemic. The economy surely has been hurt and will continue to be hurt by the decrease in economic activity.

However, we have seen very little effect on the real estate market. Prices are still very high due to the continued demand of people wanting to live in the region, coupled with the lack of properties available for sale.

Overall, if you have any interest in selling, the current time may very well be the best time in recent history to list your property and sell it at its highest potential price.

Kevin Pike is a Senior Real Estate and Probate Specialist with Coldwell Banker Great Valleys. He works with all age groups to help both buyers and sellers achieve their greatest real estate goals, and can be reached at (818) 571-1508.

Las Virgenes Municipal Water District (LVMWD) encourages customers to attend the virtual Board meeting on June 2, 2020 at 9 am, for information about the possible Automatic Meter Reading/Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMR/AMI) project. The Board will be considering whether to award a contract for the installation of AMR/AMI.

As California’s water conservation mandates become more restrictive, we require a more robust connection between the District and our customers to share and monitor timely information on household water usage. Meeting these stricter mandates requires a multi-pronged approach, including implementing new conservation initiatives and the installation of an AMR/AMI infrastructure system.

This upcoming smart meter system will allow homeowners to view their water usage in real-time by logging into their accounts through a user-friendly customer portal. Customers will be able to monitor usage trends, look for anomalies like leaks, and compare usage data with their existing water budgets.

“The District relies on innovation and forward-thinking technology to not only maximize water use efficiency, but to provide long-term cost savings to our customers,” said Dave Pedersen, General Manager of LVMWD. “AMR/AMI is a critical step forward to provide customers with useful and timely data, so they can

Automatic Meters on Water Board Agenda

make more informed decisions that affect their water usage.”

AMR/AMI meters are equipped with small radio antennas that communicate data to a base station and transmit it to LVMWD and customers. The customer will be able to access the same information at the same time as the District. Monthly

meter reading will no longer be required, reducing LVMWD staff vehicle trips and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

“The District prioritizes transparency and maintaining the trust of our customers,” said Jay Lewitt, LVMWD Board President and JPA Chair. “I really want to encourage any curious or concerned customers to attend the upcoming virtual Board meeting and learn the facts straight from our staff and your Board.”

Customers can attend virtually on June 2, 2020 at 9 am by clicking the following link: www.lvmwd.com/livestream.

Las Virgenes Municipal Water District provides potable water, wastewater treatment, recycled water and biosolids composting to more than 70,000 residents in the cities of Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Hidden Hills, Westlake Village, and unincorporated areas of western Los Angeles County.

Biotech R&D to Occupy Old Weider Building The former Weider Health building on Erwin and Variel in

Warner Center is soon to be home to The Terasaki Institute.The building, which from 1971 to 2015 was headquarters to the

bodybuilding empire of Joe Weider, which included magazines, free weights and protein supplements, has sat empty for five years.

Terasaki plans to renovate the two-story, 50,000-square-foot building and move their team of scientists into the facility next year.

Terrasaki focuses on developing bioengineered systems, medical devices and other products with biomedical applications. Up to 250 employees and equipment will enable tissues engineering and regeneration, biofabrication using 3D printing, nano- and micro-engineering, stem cell engineering and the creation of human organs on chips.

Warner Center will be the firm’s third site, with two others in West L.A. and Westwood.

By Neill SimmonsThe highlight of June is the

opportunity to see the fastest planet Mercury on Saturday and Sunday, June 2 and 3.

Look low in the west to see a small bright point of light after 8:30 pm until it sets at 9:30. Mercury looks like a small diamond. Mercury stays up for several nights and then disappears quickly below the horizon. Binoculars will help to spot this swift planet. Remember a year on Mercury is only 88 days.

This is the last month to enjoy the dazzling planet Venus.

Look on June 18 and 19 as the beautiful thin crescent Moon and Venus are near each other which is a beautiful sight.

The full Moon of June was known as the “Rose Moon” in Europe in the 1700’s. The early explorers changed the name when they were told by the American Indians that the wild strawberries ripen in June. Thus the full Moon on the 5th is now named the “Strawberry Moon.”

Interestingly, the full Moon cannot be seen this time of year if you are above the Arctic Circle.

Dawn Patrol: The planets Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars are very bright at the start of dawn which is about 4:30 am. Jupiter is extremely bright in the south and easy to spot. To the left of Jupiter is Saturn. The planet to watch now is Mars. Earth and Mars are getting closer and closer to each other in their orbits, so Mars appears brighter. Make sure to look on the mornings of the 12th and 13th when the Moon and Mars are also close to each

Nighttrek Report: What to See in the June Skyother in the early morning sky.

There are three star patterns that are worth a look in June - The Big Dipper, Bootes, and the Summer Triangle.

The Big Dipper dominates the northern night sky and is easy to spot from your house. Notice it is hanging down from its handle.

The constellation Bootes is straight up after dark. Within Bootes is the star called Arcturus, which is the 13th brightest star and is easy to spot from your back yard. This pattern of stars looks like a giant kite. The last star pattern to spot, is the Summer Triangle. Look east and notice three very bright stars rising. This is the famous “Summer Triangle” that will stay visible every night until November. Below the triangle is the famous “Milky Way.” Of course, you will need to get out of the city lights to see the Milky Way.

June 30 is “Asteroid Day.” NASA has just announced an asteroid is on target to come close to Earth in September of 2022. NASA plans to blow it up with one of its rockets before it gets near Earth. This event will in turn make a manmade meteor shower

that most of us can witness. More on this at a later date.

FUN FACT: Giuseppe Piazzi, the Italian astronomer, discovered the first asteroid in 1801 and named it

“Ceres.” It still can be seen with the naked eye on certain nights.

June is one of the best months to spot satellites from your back yard. It is easy to see over 10 an hour. Make sure to look when the Moon is not up so the sky will be darker. Remember, satellites have no blinking lights.

June is also one of the best months to see the famous and rare “Noctilucen Clouds.” These high clouds can only be seen for a few hours after

the Sun sets. They will have a wispy look. These clouds are about 50 miles above us. Send us an e-mail if you spot them.

SPACE FORCE NEWS: This military group has launched its X-37b Orbital Test Vehicle for a long mission. The last mission the X-37b lasted for two years. When it is time to come down, it will land on the three-mile runway at Vandenberg Air Force Base here in Southern California.

FUN FACT: The Roman “goddess” of marriage is Juno, which is the name we now use for the month of June. It is interesting that most marriages are in June. The Romans also believed that a marriage will have good luck if it occurs on a full Moon night and the tides are low.

and workforce rental units.The plan was approved with a 10,000 seat ESC with an enclosed

roof, or a 7,500 seat ESC with a partially open roof. Blumenfield requested that if there were any modifications to those two parameters the proposal would return to the Planning Commission.

Westfield had modified the original plan which initially had an ESC with 320,000 square feet and 15,000 seats. They reduced the square footage to 181,550 square feet and reduced the height from 155 to 85 feet.

Westfield also worked with Blumenfield to voluntarily commit to a percentage of the project‘s residential units being rent-restricted housing. 15% of the will be affordable, stakeholder and workforce housing.

Promenade 2035 will create over 10,000 construction jobs and over 9.700 permanent jobs when finished.

Westfield Executive Vice President Larry Green told Valley News Group, “This is an opportunity to get some jobs going - like we did in the ‘94 earthquake and the Great Recession. These investments are really important to the great economy and west valley.”

He added, “We really like the modified plan. We think it responds to a lot of the concerns we’ve heard out there. It’s actually a better plan. It feel right in this space.”
