DEATHNOTICES Theordinancewillgive staff direction and estab- lish rules and require- ments for recreational ve- hicles and travel trailers as residences, which it didn't have prior to the passage, Moore said. It will reduce the impacts, blight and nu- merous complaints, partic- ularly in Rancho Tehama, where there's a high con- centration of use. While the fee is one- time, the county does have the ability to revoke it for non-compliance, Tehama County Counsel Arthur Wylene said. It is unfair that resi- dents will have to pay to use their own RV or travel trailer to assist family and friends, said resident June Cooper. Cooper said following a job loss several of a neigh- bor's children have come home and used the fami- ly's trailer to live in tem- porarily. "It took a year, but they got a job," Cooper said. "Once in a while he has relatives staying with him for a while. He's trying to keep his family going and the government's trying to stop it. Let people live their lives." Resident Tom Moller objected to the ordinance as well, saying he didn't think there needed to be any more regulations. "This is not the whole answer to the problem and there are going to be people shoved out onto the road," Moller said. "There's going to be more home- less." Meeting agendas and minutes are available as well as streaming audio of the live meeting at www. co.tehama.ca.us. Residency FROM PAGE 1 The funding for the proj- ect will go toward a variety of costs, including $1,050 for the field technical ap- plicator, $925 for the rental equipment and $600 for the chemical treatments. The district will be col- laborating with the city on an array of projects that will improve the environ- mental and aesthetic con- dition within the slough, said Tom McCubbins, wa- tershed coordinator and project manager, in corre- spondence. "While these initiatives will provide long term fu- ture benefits to the East Sand Slough, a number of short term efforts are needed in order to im- mediately improve condi- tions and to help expedite long term improvement efforts," McCubbins said. Not only will the control of this vegetation aid in the prevention of its spread throughout the slough, it will allow improved access to the area by law enforce- ment to combat illegal ac- tivities near the bridge, Mc- Cubbins said. Dying trees that have been deteriorating have posed a safety issue. Dead and dying sycamore and willow trees need to be re- moved to move forward with this project, McCub- bins said. "This is one step in what we're hoping to be many steps to improve not only the aesthetics of the area but the safety and security of the area as well," McCub- bins said. "With the blackberries under control, we can rees- tablish the grasses and na- tive species that grow down there." The condition and ap- pearance of the slough since a 2013 fire have prompted many complaints from res- idents. "I'm really happy, if we could move forward with it," Mayor Clay Parker said. District personnel would conduct herbicide appli- cations on the blackberry stands near the Antelope Boulevard bridge after veg- etation has been reduced, McCubbins said. Since the blackber- ries have already dropped leaves on the ground, the herbicide step of the proj- ect will have to wait till next August. With the sup- plemental appropriation funds the district will be able to go in and keep the bushes down to be ready for that next step, McCub- bins said. "I know that's a year down the road to actually do the treatment but it sure would be nice to get the rest of the project started within the next 30 days to clear those standing trees," Parker said. McCubbins said that is the amount of time the first step of the project takes to get started, but it looks like in the near future that part will be started and com- pleted and the aesthet- ics and public safety of the slough will be greatly im- proved. Project FROM PAGE 1 "We'd really like to have your input, your thoughts and your feelings on the is- sue," Garton said. "This decision will af- fect the community for the next 50 years, in my opin- ion." Garton encouraged all interested parties to come to the meeting to discuss the issues and alternatives to closing Madison, includ- ing a tunnel or an overhead ramp. The meeting is open to the public and will begin with a public comment pe- riod. Closure FROM PAGE 1 "It provided stability and support and became a home for the year," Rags- dale said. "It was a com- fortable place to build a foundation to move for- ward. A part of it will al- ways feel like home." In anticipation of the re- paint, the program had not been filling all the rooms, but will be increasing the number of residents. The house can handle up to 15 clients at a time in its six bedrooms and costs about $18,000 a year to run, Ragsdale said. The annual yard sale in August is the only fundraiser and brought in about $5,000 in 2015, which is about double the normal amount. The program gives women a safe place to stay while in transition from being homeless, which is one of the requirements of living there, and sort- ing thorough various is- sues that will allow them to get back on their feet and become productive members of the commu- nity while learning to be self sufficient. It helps with various aspects of their lives from becoming clean and sober to finding a job or even with the reunifi- cation process for women who have had their chil- dren taken by Child Pro- tective Services. "It's a two-year program, but the average client stays about seven months," Rags- dale said. "We always have a waiting list." Ragsdale is grateful as always for the community support such as the paint- ing project, which allows the house to focus more of its funds on the program, she said. Other recent community projects include a gazebo donated as a part of a Ea- gle Scout project. For more information on the Sale House, call 727- 7191. Makeover FROM PAGE 1 By John Carucci The Associated Press NEW YORK While some of the predictions made in "Back to the Future Part II" eventually came true, like Skype and fingerprint scanners, one of them did not: The Chicago Cubs win- ning the World Series. At a special screening for the film Wednesday, star Michael J. Fox admitted on the red carpet that he was a little torn over that one. "It's tough because I'm a New Yorker and I would love to see the Mets do well. But I'd love to see the film be right. So I'm torn," Fox said before the game ended, adding, "Whatever hap- pens, happens." Christopher Lloyd, who played Emmett "Doc" Brown, said he didn't re- ally follow the predictions, except for that one. "I'm hoping the Cubs win tonight and go into the se- ries, that would be the ulti- mate prediction," Lloyd said with a bit of trepidation. But that was not to be. The New York Mets de- feated the Cubs 8-3 Wednes- day in the National League Championship Series. They will advance to the World Series. "Back to the Future Part II" envisioned more than baseball. It depicted a col- orful 2015 with flying cars, hoverboards and self-ty- ing shoelaces. While those doodads are hardly preva- lent today, the film did ac- curately tease the rise of flat-screen televisions, bio- metric scanning and hands- free gaming. Even President Barack Obama was impressed. Ear- lier in the day, he sent Fox a tweet that read: Happy Back to the Future Day, According to writer and co-creator Bob Gale, most of the predictions, includ- ing the one about the Cubs, "were intended to be jokes." "The most far-fetched prediction was that law- yers would be abolished in the future. We didn't expect that would happen, but you put stuff in the movie you're going to enjoy," joked Gale. Fox and Lloyd arrived onstage at "Jimmy Kim- mel Live," which is filming at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Howard Gilman Opera House this week, in a DeLorean dressed as Marty McFly and Doc Brown. The talk-show host informed the pair about all the advance- ments that have been made since 1985, including cro- nuts, emojis and selfies. "Doc, it seems like 2015 kinda sucks," joked Fox as McFly. He later came back out sporting a pair of sneak- ers that appeared to have power laces, as depicted in "Back to the Future Part II." "Back to the Future" Day was celebrated around the world Wednesday. It marked the day in 1985 that McFly, along with Doc Brown and Jennifer Parker traveled in their souped-up DeLorean time machine to 2015 in the sci-fi film trilogy's second in- stallment in 1989. "Back to the Future" film- maker Robert Zemeckis' trilogy has left a lasting im- pression on pop culture in the 30 years since the orig- inal film debuted, spawn- ing a theme park attrac- tion, video game and ani- mated series. The town of Reston, Virginia, ceremoniously changed its name to Hill Valley, McFly's fictional hometown. Washington, D.C.'s Washington West Film Festival featured a marathon screening of the trilogy and will have a Sun- day screening of the origi- nal film. Stars Christopher Lloyd and Claudia Wells, as well as screenwriter-pro- ducer Bob Gale, will attend. Other celebrations in Cal- ifornia included the "We're Going Back" fan event at the Hill Valley town square set on the Universal Studios lot and the Million McFly March, a gathering of fans dressed as McFly that be- gan at the Burbank, Califor- nia, location of the Burger King restaurant depicted in "Back to the Future."

Ernie went to Red Bluff High School. In 1955 she married Allen (Art) Thompson and they moved to El Camino. Their home was a surplus WWII housing unit that they disassembled on Mare Island and brought back to El Camino. In 1957 their son Mark was born. Mark was the greatest joy of Er- nie's life.

Ernie loved baking cookies for her friends and neigh- bors and cheering on the SF Giants, Oakland Raiders, and Nascar Sprint driver Jeff Gordon. Her favorite of all time was tennis player Andre Agassi whose struggle and tri- umph over depression was an inspiration to her. When Ernie lived in El Camino she took care of her many cats, wild birds and any other of God's creatures that came in- to her yard. They knew that they were safe in the sanctu- ary she gave them. Ernie never hurt a living soul and her love of the Lord was an inspiration to all who knew her. A graveside service will be held October 27 at 11:00 at Tehama Cemetery.
