City applies for funds to replace 49-year old water tank
n Feds, state say city may be eligible for $1.8 million
By Pat Hampton
Tribune Publisher
A new million gallon water storage tank
could replace the one built in 1966 that is
inefficient and hazardous, tucked away in
Feige Canyon.
Built in 1966, the Feige tank is in desperate need of rehabilitation or replacement
said city public works director Mike Kirn.
The Feige tank has had virtually no maintenance for the last 47-years because the city’s
water system couldn’t operate without the
storage tank. A new 1.5 million gallon water
tank was completed atop Mt. Washington,
which could allow the Feige tank to be taken
off-line and repaired or replaced.
A 2013 Kennedy/Jenks report determined
that the existing welded steel tank has significant structural/seismic deficiencies and
is not mechanically anchored to the ground.
Kirn said the cost for a new tank was
$2.4 million, but representatives from the
State Office of Emergency Services (OES)
and FEMA urged Kirn to apply for a Hazard
Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP). Funds
were made available because of the August
2014 earthquake in Napa.
In January, a notice that funding was
available was sent to Kirn who told both
agencies that Calistoga was interested in replacing the Feige Canyon water tank. Kirn
submitted a letter with supporting documents about the condition and cost of the
tank’s replacement.
Last week Kirn was told that Calistoga
met funding criteria and was told to apply
for the grant. The OES would grant $1.87
million to the project if the city would commit to matching funds of $625,000.
Councilmembers approved the project
Tuesday night at the council meeting, directed Kirn to send in the supporting paperwork
for the grant and a commitment of matching
funds by the city.
Kirn reported the lifespan of a rehabilitated tank would be 40-years; a new tank,
which is only a little over $300K more expensive, will last closer to 100-years, twoand-a-half times longer. The new tank must
be completed by Sept. 11, 2018, according
to the agreement.
HAPPY 1st DAY OF SPRING!
City council
supports
bocce courts
n Rotary Club says it
is a community service
By Pat Hampton
Tribune Publisher
Photo by LinDsey oLson
Elementary school teacher and photographer Lindsay Olsen shared a photo he took as Spring approached the Napa Valley. Today,
March 20, is the first day of Spring. The word equinox is derived from the Latin words meaning “equal night.” All over the world,
days and nights are approximately equal. Today, the sun rises exactly in the east and sets exactly in the west.
The Calistoga Rotary Club
asked the city council this week
if it could build four bocce ball
courts in Logvy Community Park
near the Napa River.
Ed Johnson, the club’s community services chair, in a letter to
city manager Richard Spitler, said
the club members would build the
four courts themselves and then
turn them over to the city for upkeep.
Johnson said he understood that
a 500-foot walkway allowing access to the courts and new handicapped parking would be required
to meet ADA standards and wondered if those projects could be the
city’s responsibility.
Spitler said there were issues
with the project that need to be
worked out, including trash collection, a drainage holding area, picnic tables and a storage shed. He
said the council should approve the
plan in concept, but to allow time
for city staff and Rotary members

Investigation on homicide case
reveals dispute was over money
FOR THE CALISTOGA TRIBUNE
The Napa County Sheriff’s Office revealed information in its
investigation into Monday’s reported homicide that took place
south of the Town of Yountville, in the 6100 block of Solano
Avenue.
Based on the facts of the investigation and witness interviews,
Capt. Douglas Pike, information officer for the Napa County
Sheriff’s Office, said the investigation revealed that the two men,
Emad Rasmy Tawfilis, 48, of Los Gatos, and Robert Dahl, 47, of
Fairfield had a business relationship and were currently involved
in some opposing civil litigation. They had scheduled to meet
with each other at Dahl Vineyards for a possible settlement conference, without their attorneys. During the meeting, something
tragically went wrong.
Investigation of the scene and eye witness interviews indicate
that the assault began inside the winery building. From there,
Tawfilis fled, on foot, southbound through the vineyard with
Dahl pursuing him in his black SUV (a 2014 Toyota). As he was
being pursued, Tawfilis was on a 911 line with Dispatch reporting that he had been shot and that “Robert Dahl” was coming
after him in his truck and was trying to kill him. As he was chasing Tawfilis, Dahl was believed to be firing repeatedly at Tawfilis
with a .22 caliber semiautomatic handgun.
After making his way to the intersection of Hoffman Lane
and Solano Avenue, the now wounded Tawfilis fell to the ground

Books) is great. Cal Mart
is also fun. We’ll say Cal

“Up Valley Vintners probably.”
Local business owners will
be hosted by the management of
Calistoga Speedway at a reception to discuss ways in which race
weekends can be more successful
for race fans and downtown customers alike.
The event, hosted by Tommy
Hunt, race promoter and president
of HMC Promotions, will be held
March 30 at
6 p.m. at the
Roastery on
Lincoln Street
in downtown
Calistoga.
All members
of the Calistoga Chamber
of Commerce
Tommy Hunt
are welcome
to attend.
“We are very honored to preserve and continue the legacy of
racing that has been a vital part of
Calistoga for 78 years,” said Hunt,
who has promoted races at the half
mile oval for the last three years
and created and promoted the
track’s biggest event, the Louie
Vermeil Classic. “In a sense, the
track belongs to the community,”
said Hunt, who noted that local
service organizations such as the
Lions Club and Wildcat Booster
Speedway promoter wants to meet with fans and downtown businesses to discuss ways to improve race weekends.
Club raise funds with their volunteer work on race weekends.
“We would like to do everything
that we can to make race weekends as successful as possible both
at the fairgrounds and downtown
and are looking forward to hearing
the comments and suggestions of
local business owners.” he said.
Unlike most race tracks on
county fairgrounds that host races
every weekend from spring to fall,
Calistoga Speedway has the distinction of hosting only special
events on four to six weekends
from April through September.
As one of a few surviving half
mile ovals in the western United
States, Calistoga Speedway is
larger than other local tracks and
regularly draws thousands of outof-town fans on race weekends
that host major national and regional traveling series for sprint
cars and motorcycles.
Calistoga Speedway’s 2015
schedule kicks off with a “Sprint
Car Spectacular” featuring the national World of Outlaws and three
regional sprint car series on April
11 -12. The King of the West sprint
car series returns on June 27.
Non-wing, traditional sprint
cars will be featured during the
three-day Louie Vermeil Classic
on Labor Day weekend, September 4-6.
The national championships for
the AMA Flat Track series ends
the season on Sept. 26.

So what do you know that I don’t?
I
missed the city council meeting this week,
gave it a pass for a night at Uptown Theater and the music of ukulele virtuoso Jake
Shimabukuro.
I know, how can I pass up a city council meeting for a ukulele? A voice that said “just do it, you
can watch the meeting the next day” gave me leave
to forego my seat in the front row at the Community Center and find a seat inside the Uptown
Theater instead. It was a pretty light agenda, the
introduction of building bocce courts was the
highlight of the night. Let me know if I missed any
good stories.
■■■■
We are enjoying, like everyone else, the gorgeous weather with a bit of guilt. Hopeful that
storm clouds will return someday, and the trees
and plants will fill up on rainwater, we look at the
azure sky and say a quiet prayer for rain, significant rain. Everyone’s dressing in flip-flops and
shorts, putting on sunglasses and talking about the
weather while looking over their shoulder. Even
the family dog is lying outside on the sidewalk getting a sun bath before she comes into the house.
■■■■
Heard a really good idea about the new LED
school sign that is continually scrolling messages
and reminders about dates and events in front of
the elementary school. You can’t miss it, bright
green and white lights project information like an
old teletype. Why not use it for some educational
fun? Start a “Word of the Day” campaign for the
students to see and interact with going to and
from school. Put up a word in the morning and by
afternoon add it’s meaning. Fifth and sixth graders
especially would increase their vocabularies as
well as drivers who pass by.
Speaking of differences at the school compared
to what those of us from the Boomer crowd remember, I heard the bell ring for change of class or the
end of lunch. Not too long ago the bells sounded
just like those used in prisons, angry and shrill and
very unpleasant. But the bells at CES were pleasant
tones, almost like chimes instead of that irritating
bell that sent out demands for cooperation.
■■■■
Hardly fair that tomorrow is Spring opening
day, but it is. If we are not ready for it the flora and
fauna certainly are, everything is starting to bloom
or push buds out. Makes it very obvious that we
skipped winter and went directly into Spring. Let’s
hope we don’t go right into Summer too early.
Not too much going on in town, city council
will start its dialogue over the budget, which has
to be adopted by June. But with that windfall from
two developers, that won’t be hard.
So, what do you know that I don’t? Tell me.

Guidelines
Dear Editor,
There are already 467 wineries in
Napa County. An audit by county staff
found that almost half of the wineries
did not comply with their use permits
in 2013. It appears that the county is
unable – or unwilling – to monitor the
presently-operating wineries. Yet the
county is presently considering 41 permits for new projects. And, to make
matters worse, towns such as Calistoga
are giving the green-light to huge,
inappropriate resort complexes such as
“Calistoga Hills.”
Most of the arguments for unfettered development are pure bunkum.
One speaker at the recent joint meeting of the County Supervisors and
Planning Commissioners warned, “If
there were no visitors to Napa Valley,
locals would have to spend $10,000
more per year to keep the economy of
Napa County as it is now.” Honestly!
Nobody is suggesting that we kick out
all the wineries and turn visitors away

Opinion
Knee’d advice on what to give the recovering patient?
A
fter years of threatening and whining, it is
time to put up or shut
up. You have your knee replaced.
Mind you, it is not an operation; those haven’t been around
since the Eighties. It is a “procedure.” It’s as if giving this event a
less scary name, makes it easier.
Forget that! When part of your
kneecap is sawed off and replaced
with a titanium and polyethylene
device, it is a very big deal.
Before the operation, the staff
is syrupy sweet. You get aromatherapy and a neck massage,
and they are constantly asking if
there is anything else they can do
to make you comfortable, but you
are thinking only, “Yes, get me
the hell out of here,” but of course
you don’t want to be impolite.
Then you are back in your
room in a blur and feeling pretty
good. In a few hours a nurse
comes in and asks you if you are

and you are mighty proud.
You are home before the cat
needs feeding, and in comes the
army of volunteers, each carrying
a pot of chicken soup. The refrigerator is soon bulging with small
packages of casseroles, salads and

on a vicodin stew of nausea and

give a fig about food.
Soon you are clunking around

everything you need is on another
floor. The toilet seat feels like it
is at floor level and it is a scary
trip getting down to it. Everyone observes your wincing and
fidgeting and asks, “Wouldn’t
you be more comfortable with a
pillow?” or “Do you need me to
prop you up?” and all you want to
do is pass out and wake up in July
climbing the Oat Hill Mine Trail.
Everyone knows someone who
has had the knee replacement
The snow fell.
His truck in the barn,
his boots by the door,
flagpoles empty.
It took a long time for the taxi to come.
“Where to?” he said.
“My father just died,” I said.
As if it were a destination.

The wedding ring I took off myself,
his wife wasn’t up to it.
I brought the nurse into the room
in case he jumped or anything.
“Can we turn his head?
He looks so uncomfortable.”
She looked straight at me,
patiently waiting for it to sink in.
“...all you want to do
is pass out and wake up
in July climbing the Oat
Hill Mine Trail.”
I
had heard rumors of a
dwarf-themed winery
opening in the Napa Valley
for some time. I didn’t take the
rumors too seriously. I figured in
a progressive place like Northern
California, replete with overly
sensitized crusaders for the politically correct, such an outrageous
business idea could be little more
than a daydream. I was impressed,
and I have to admit, even pleased,
when I saw two playful dwarf
statues sitting atop columns
at a newly constructed winery
entrance.
Let me say that I am not a
dwarf and I admittedly lack
insight on that perspective. I can
say that I don’t much dwell on
differences between myself and
by Pad McGinnis
my fellow human beings, besides
the ones that are rooted in choice.
We are all given a unique set of
blessings and obstacles in life and
that’s the trite truth of it. I don’t
much care for cultural training
that instills taboos and engenders
incendiary defensiveness over
breeches of etiquette. Even if this
training is in the name of equality, I think instructing sensitivities
over certain words or discouraging open conversation and candid
observation, serves more to separate than to unite. I relish honesty
and directness, even at times
when the truth proves severe.
I liken the dwarf winery to a
Hooters restaurant. An arbitrary
yet distinct bodily characteristic is
selected for which large portions
of the population show an innate
fascination and then this trait is
showcased for the amusement of
customers. Crude, yes, but effective...endlessly effective. People
will no sooner stop being intrigued by little people, than men
will stop being intrigued by big
boobs. Is this distasteful? Sure,
and a lot of honest things are. But
we in the valley have a special
Tribune MysTery PhoTo
intolerance for the distasteful.
We wouldn’t allow a Hooters in
Yountville even if they served
wagu beef and $300 cabernets.
The valley deals in a veneer
of refinement, sophistication, and
class. This is how it draws the
spending dollars of the world’s
most wealthy tourists. In many
tasting rooms you will find the
main product being pushed is
not so much a bottle of wine as
a purchased sense of superiority.
Each winery tries to outshine, outperform and generally out-fancy
its rivals, in a race to sell a fantasy
lifestyle. This is how the valley
has grown to be a place of Persian
palaces, medieval European
castles, gondola rides, silveryshimmering 20 foot rabbits and so
forth. Spectacle sells and like it or
not the valley has become a fullblown Disneyland. Or so I think.
This is one reason the dwarf
winery appealed to me, for its
transparent admission of the
amusement park nature of the
Napa wine business. Of course,
there are many who see it as

just as the deputies were arriving.
Seeing the approaching units,
Dahl then ran back to his SUV
and fled the scene, at a high rate of
speed, northbound on State Route
29, with deputies in pursuit.
While one of the arriving deputies attempted to render aid to

there’s room in the world for
earnest winemakers as well as
circus masters who sell wine. I
think there’s room in the world

themselves whether to participate
in the phenomenon of spectacle.
As of now, the dwarf statues have

through a gate onto private
property and came to a stop in a
heavily wooded area. After Dahl
crashed through the gate, deputies
briefly lost visual contact with the
suspect vehicle. Because deputies
had lost sight temporarily of Dahl
they did not know if he was still in
the vehicle. On the scene deputies
then established a perimeter and
requested SWAT teams from both
the Sheriff’s Office and the Napa
Police Department. Upon arrival,
the SWAT teams located Dahl in
the driver’s seat of his vehicle
deceased from an apparent selfinflicted gunshot wound.
The autopsies for the two men
are scheduled for later today. according to Capt. Pike.

to Calistoga. According to Vine
Trail officials, almost all the preengineering and environmental
work has been completed. A short
section of the Vine Trail from the
existing bike path in Calistoga has
been approved by the city and is
ready for construction.
The Vine Trail overall mission
is to build a 47-mile walking/biking trail system to physically connect the entire Napa Valley, from
Vallejo’s Ferry Terminal to the foot
of Mt. St. Helena in Calistoga, for
a more livable, family and visitor
community.
The cost of building one mile
of Vine Tail has an average cost of
$1 million for each of its 47 miles,
according to the coalition. The projected cost to complete the entire
route of the trail is between $46-50
million.
Presently 25 percent of the cost
is being raised through private donations and sponsor partnerships and
an additional $7.5 million is being
raised for a maintenance endowment to assure the trail for genera-

Tubbs Lane fire burns 100 feet
along the shoulder of the road
CAL FIRE, Napa County Fire Department, and Calistoga Fire
Department resources responded to a roadside vegetation fire
Tuesday on Tubbs Lane in Calistoga at 3:56 p.m. The fire burned
vegetation approximately 100 feet along the roadside and was
contained at 4:05 p.m. There were no injuries and no structures
or vehicles were damaged. The fire was caused by sparks from a
vehicle.

He said the club’s intent is to
have the courts built by June.
While the city council gave the

The Vine Trail Coalition and the
Napa County Transportation Planning Agency (NCTPA) is planning
to apply for a grant under the next
round of California’s Active Transportation Program (ATP) in May
2015, with support from the cities of
Calistoga and St. Helena.
The grant would fund in three
phases the construction of the connection from Calistoga to BotheNapa Valley State Park, the design

and we look to continue to grow in
2016. The support of the Calistoga

A full weekend of open-wheel
racing featuring the national World
of Outlaws and three of Northern
California’s top touring series for
sprint cars will jumpstart Calistoga
Speedway’s upcoming season.
The 2015 season, which is the
78th year of racing on the half
mile oval at the Napa County Fairgrounds, also includes a separate
event for the King of the West
sprint cars, the traditional Louie
Vermeil Classic over Labor Day
weekend and the return of the
AMA Grand National championships for flat track motorcycles.
In addition to the Outlaws, the
“Sprint Car Spectacular” on Saturday and Sunday, April 11-12, will
also include the prestigious King
of the West series for “410” sprint
cars, the Civil War series for “360”
sprint cars and the traditional nonwing sprint cars of the Hunt Magneto series.
“It’s a weekend that offers fans
a race for every taste,” noted Tommy Hunt, Calistoga Speedway
promoter. “No matter what kind
of sprint car a fan would like, it
will be here that weekend with a
little something for everybody.”
The World of Outlaws features
some of the nation’s best touring pros, led by six time national
champion Donny Schatz from
North Dakota. The Calistoga stop
also will be a homecoming of sorts
for some of the Outlaw drivers
who began their careers in Northern California, including former
Calistoga Speedway champion
Paul McMahon, who now makes
his home in Tennessee, and Brad
Sweet formerly of Grass Valley,
who drives a car owned by NASCAR driver Kasey Kahne.
For the first time ever, racers
in the King of the West series, led
by two- time and defending champion Kyle Hirst of Chico, will earn
points toward their season-long
championship based on their finishes racing against the World of
Outlaws each night, an added incentive for teams with title hopes.
The Civil War Series returns to
Calistoga Speedway on Saturday
night of that weekend for a separate racing program after a two
year absence, offering Calistoga
resident Mike Benson, a regular
on that tour, a rare chance to race
in front of a hometown crowd.
In addition, the non-wing sprint
cars of the Hunt Magneto Series
will race a full program on Sunday
night of the season-opening weekend.

‘Cats hitting their stride, winning 2 of 3 games
■ Reaping rewards of tough pre-season
schedule, softball team on a roll
By Gene Duffy
Tribune Sports Writer
Calistoga softball is reaping
the rewards of a tough pre-season
schedule as the Cats have won
two out of their three last games,
Saturday in the Cats three team
tournament, Calistoga exploded
for 23 hits in the opener, beating
the Tech Titans 24-12.
The Cats held a 24-2 lead when
coach Blakeley substituted freshman CiCi Montanez for pitcher
Hailey Butcher enabling Montanez
to get a little work. Tech worked
her over for 10 runs in her second
stint of the year on the mound.
Freshman Megan Mills went 5
for 5 for the Cats while senior
Jenna Franquelin was 3 for 4 with
2 doubles, a triple and 4 RBI’s.
Butcher struck out 10 batters in
four innings of work to notch the
win.
In the second game Saturday,
facing St. Helena, the Cats dug a
9-0 hole before staging a dramatic
7 run comeback in the bottom half
of the last inning, falling just short
in the 9-7 loss.
Tuesday, Calistoga traveled to
St. Helena and had their best outing of the season, revenging
Saturday’s loss with an impressive 16-4 win on the Saints home
diamond.
Franquelin led the Calistoga
attack with two tape measure
home runs, a double, and six
RBI’s. Montanez had a ground
rule double, while Joyce Aquino
and Giana Pochini each contributed three hits.
Butcher was impressive on the
mound keeping the Saints off balance with a variety of pitches and
holding the Saints to 4 hits.
Next up, Anderson Valley
comes calling today at 4 p.m.
Katelyn Butcher applies the
tag on the attempted steal in
the Wildcats game against St.
Helena.
