Email [email protected] June 2008 From the Editors Desk by Ken Podgorsek Guest Editor Congratulations to Beth Shafran-Mukai During May and June, District Wide Caucuses were held in all 10 San Jose Council Districts to recommend appointments to the new San Jose Neighborhoods Commission. These recomendations will be sent to the City Council for approval and appointment. District 3 had 22 Neighborhood Associations represented at our caucus. Outgoing CCA President Beth Shafran-Mukai ran for one of the 3 seats for District 3 on the Commission. I am very proud to say that she was selected by all 22 neighborhoods in a unanimous vote to be recommended to the City Council for appoiintment to the new San Jose Neighborhoods Commission. She was the only candidate at the District 3 Caucus to be recommended by all the D3 neighborhood associations. Beth Shafran-Mukai has been a tireless advocate for neighborhoods in San Jose. As a member of the SNI Project Area Committee, she has continuosly advocated to increase the voice of neighborhoods at City Hall. She has earned the respect of neighborhood leaders throughout D3 and San Jose. She deserved the recognition of her efforts from this vote. As CCA President, Beth has invested hundreds of hours these past 3 years looking out for our neighborhood. She will continue her advocacy for our neighborhood by remaining on the CCA Board as Vice-President. On a personal note, as some people may know, Beth and I did not meet under the best circumstances. As CCA President at the time, I challenged her to get involved and to be part of the process. She took up that challenge and took it up with “gusto”. I respect Beth, both as a Neighborhood Leader and as a Friend. Congratulations Beth, many thanks for all that you do to make San Jose a great place to raise our families. Please take a moment when you see Beth around the neighborhood to say, “Thank You”.

June 2008 Page Pres’ Says by Beth Shafran-Mukai CCA President [email protected] Happy summer! Hope that everyone’s many home projects and gardens are going (and growing) well. This will be my final President’s column for our Campus Community Association newsletter, as I am completing my third year in this role. While I will continue to serve on the CCA Board, Dennis Cunningham will be our new CCA President starting in July. Many in the neighborhood have recently worked with Dennis as he administered our recent and very successful program to cost-share the maintenance of Naglee Park’s street trees, and with him through many years of his other neighborhood involvement. The tree program is being considered a “best practice” in the city, and other neighborhoods are hoping to model this approach. Congratulations to Dennis as our new CCA President! You may have noticed the installation of the new streetlights along William Street; these will be followed soon by many Naglee Park banners around the perimeter of the neighborhood, funded by CCA. Our Beautification Committee deserves recognition for all of their outreach, planning, and design work on the banner project, which will create an attractive and distinctive gateway into the ‘hood. We hope to also have special “Bark in the Park” banners along William Street in the future, to showcase Naglee Park’s own BARK festival. Did you know that BARK is the biggest dog-related festival in the United States! Summer is now here- so that means it is time to start planning for both the July 4 Parade and Party and Bark in the Park. Cici Green is our July 4 Chair again this year, so please let her know if you can help with July 4 planning and the event itself. Ken Podgorsek is BARK Chair, and I am BARK Volunteer Chair. Please let us know if you can assist at BARK, which will be held on Saturday, September 20, 2008. There is something fun for everyone, including the kids - whether you want to help the evening before by setting up, or at BARK by June 2008 working a booth, being a Greeter, doing “park patrol” or in many other opportunities to be of service to the community while having a great time with friends and family. Our District Three Neighborhood Caucus was held several weeks ago, and three Neighborhoods Commissioners were chosen. I am honored to be among them, and will continue to advocate for neighborhoods in this role. Starting later this summer, the Commission will put together its’ initial work plan and priorities, review these with the City Council, and start supporting neighborhoods throughout San Jose. I am told that the City of San Jose has just received an award from a large national organization for the creation of the new Neighborhoods Commission. Perhaps in time this will also be considered a best practice and be implemented in other cities. I thank each and every one of my neighbors for the wonderful community that we live in here in Naglee Park. Being involved in our neighborhood has been a great experience, definitely worth the time and effort involved. I encourage everyone to consider becoming involved on a CCA committee or project, and adding their voice and experience to our downtown. We’re !! n e e r G WANT TO SAVE MONEY AT THE PUMP?

William St Bridge at Coyote Creek Seismic Retrofit Project Background: After the Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989, Caltrans reviewed all the bridges in the City of San José and rated each structure for seismic adequacy. The E. William Street Bridge at Coyote Creek has been identified as being deficient with respect to seismic resistance. This bridge is warranted for seismic retrofit to meet current Caltrans seismic design standards. A design consultant has prepared plans and specifications for the project. The proposed seismic retrofit strategy has two main objectives. (1) To prevent collapse of existing structure during the maximum credible earthquake event. (2) To provide an economical and constructible retrofit with minimum impact to Coyote Creek and to the existing E. William Street traffic patterns. Project Description Seismic Retrofit of E. William St. Bridge at Coyote Creek. Scope of Improvements Replacing existing deteriorated rocker bearings at abutments with elastomeric bearing pads with steel metal sliding surfaces. Installing elastomeric bearing pads at the piers (columns). Replacing existing abutment expansion joint pads. June 2008 Construction Schedule Start Construction: July 2008 Construction Completion: October 2008 Construction hours: M-F 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM Project Funding Based on Engineer’s Estimate Project cost: $220,070. To fund this seismic retrofit project, a federal grant has been approved through the Federal Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program. The grant will reimburse up to 88.53 percent of the project cost. Construction Issues Mitigation Measures Majority of retrofit work to occur under the bridge deck. Occasional traffic lane closure during bridge jacking. Noise mitigation by use of small scale construction equipment. As required by Federal & State Environmental document, creek will be protected from erosion & pollution during construction. Access to Residential driveways & Park will be maintained at all times.

After completing their California Standards Tests (CSTs) in mid-May, students began researching and experimenting for their science fair projects. The second annual Science Fair was held May 30th and featured individual, small group, and whole class projects from kindergarten through fifth grade. In addition to student projects, the fair also provided several stations where students and their family members could conduct scientific experiments. The San Jose High Robotics Club brought their remote control robot cars and kids of all ages got to navigate the crazy cars through an obstacle course. New this year was a giant Earth ball you could walk into and see the Earth as if you were really inside its core. Mann’s new principal on July 1st. He comes to us from Reed Elementary School, also in SJ Unified, where he has been principal for the past 3 years. Mr. Correa actually taught at Horace Mann many years ago, before he became vice principal at Graystone Elementary School. Mr. Correa has already attended many school events since learning he was coming to Horace Mann and the many parents who have had the opportunity to meet him are very excited to have him on board. On May 20th, during Open House, Horace Mann held its first art show, featuring student artwork from the parent-led Art Express program. Parents and the children alike were so proud of the artwork on display! It was great to see the culmination of all the hard work by the students and parents who volunteered their time to make this program happen. At the June 3rd city council meeting, the Art Express program received a commendation from councilman Sam Liccardo. Among other end of the year events were the 2nd annual Horace Mann Foundation Golf Tournament at Los Lagos golf course and the Multi-Cultural Festival on June 7th. The Horace Mann Choraliers kicked off the golf tournament with two songs and then approximately 80 parents and community members who came out to support the school headed off in their carts to enjoy a beautiful day of golf. The Foundation raised money for such things as funding gaps in fieldtrip costs, teacher trainings, and art supplies. The Multi-Cultural Festival featured foods, games, crafts, and entertainment from the American, Vietnamese, and Latino cultures. As this school year comes to a close, we take in pride in the many accomplishments made this year and look forward to another great year in the fall. Leading us into the next school year will be new principal Juan Correa.

We’ll never know. Nevertheless, many hearty neighbors arrived to a lovely brunch at the home of Ingrid and Steve Quigley on 15th Street. Our original intention was to learn more about labyrinths, walk the Quigley’s backyard labyrinth and help to repaint it. We ended up visiting, learning and enjoying a walk in the rain. We have rescheduled the repainting event to Saturday, June 28, at 10:30 -11:30, 520 S 15th Street Please join in to enjoy a light brunch together and learn why so many people around the world are locating labyrinths to walk. Why is it different from walking the sidewalks of our beautiful neighborhood? Also look forward to seeing a children’s labyrinth at our annual July 4th celebration and a special labyrinth for dogs and owners at Bark in the Park! These events are part of our exploration of the public’s interest in a inner city labyrinth project.
