The plan focuses on expanding charging spaces away from the downtown area and into neighbor- hoods to encourage more apart- ment tenants to abandon their gas- powered cars. The expansion will bring chargers to a crucial yet neg- lected market for electric cars – almost three-quarters of Santa Monicans are renters. “We are moving forward on all fronts,” Senior Sustainability Analyst Garrett Wong told the Council Tuesday. The $2.4 million plan calls for expanding the network of charging ports from just under 100 to 300 by 2020 – they will be installed along curbs, hooked up to LED street- lights and placed in parking lots. To encourage private development, the plan increases requirements for EV-ready parking spaces in new construction and offers rebates to support new infrastructure. For the first time, staff will explore fees to recoup the cost of electricity and maintenance to the city. The plan has a long-term goal of 1,000 chargers by 2025. The City Council hopes the expansion will encourage more residents to buy EVs – aiming to increase ownership from 2 percent to 15 percent by 2025, which would result in 9,000 fewer gas cars on the road.

You Pay Nothing UntilYour Case Is Resolved
Dear EarthTalk: What are some ways we can encourage
more commuters to ditch their cars in favorof bikes?
Dennis NorthrupAvon, CT
ONE OF THE BEST THINGS WE CAN DOas individuals to fight climate change is toreduce the number of miles we drive in ourfossil-fuel powered cars. But replacing thosecar rides with more fuel-efficient optionsisn’t so easy, especially if you don’t live neara transit hub. Given all the new bike laneinfrastructure across the country and theavailability of battery-assisted bicycles tohelp you around, there’s never been a bettertime to ditch the car in favor of pedal power.
If you’ve only got a short way to go, yourgood old bike might work just fine. But ifyou need to get further than you’re comfort-able riding under your own power, why notupgrade to something with battery assis-tance? You can retrofit your current conven-tional bike with a battery-powered rearwheel, such as Superpedestrian’sCopenhagen Wheel ($1,499), lovinglyreferred to as the “Two-Wheeled Tesla,”given its sleek design, Bluetooth connectivi-ty and biometric monitoring. Or DIYersmight prefer to spend their weekend tinker-ing with Aosom’s battery-powered rear-wheel replacement kit ($219) instead.
If you’re ready to buy a new electric-assistbike, there’s a lot to choose from. Some topchoices include Stromer’s ST2 ($6,500),Elby’s 9-Speed ($3,700), the Espin Sport350W ($2,000) or Raleigh’s Superbe iE($1,700). City slickers might preferBrooklyness’ CMYK 5.0 Folding ElectricBike ($999), which pedal-assists for 50 milesper charge and can fold up into a neat little
25-pound bundle when you get there.Brooklyness is also getting ready to releasethe first production models of its new hel-met design, the Classon, which has sensorsbuilt in to detect cars approaching yourblind spots, motion-activated brake andturn signals to keep drivers and pedestriansin the know about where you’re going, and avideo camera to document your adventures.
Another way technology is facilitatingbicycle commuting is through the release ofvarious apps to help riders optimize theirrouting. For instance, Lanespotter aims to bethe Waze of cycling by providing riders withreal-time data to find bike lanes and trailsnearby, filtering mapping options based onother cyclists’ routing choices and safety rec-ommendations.

And then there’s bike sharing, a growingphenomenon from coast-to-coast wherebyriders can pick up a bike in one part of townand drop it off in another to speed up theircommute. New York-based Motivate hasdesigned and implemented bike share net-works in nine U.S. cities to date, with thelargest in New York (10,000 bikes) and SanFrancisco (7,000 bikes). A typical ride onone of Motivate’s bikes costs $3, and many ofthe systems are integrated with larger transitnetworks. For instance, Bay Area riders canpay for their “GoBike” using the same refill-able Clipper card that gets them onto BARTtrains and MUNI buses.

Go EllisEditor:
Keyser Marston Associates’ report proves that when landlords use the Ellis Act toremove rental units from the market, Santa Monica benefits.
1. The report says that Ellis Act withdrawals create “downzoning.” Many rental unitsare replaced by a few condos or single family homes. Excellent! This reduces density,traffic, water usage, school over-crowding, and strains on city services, resulting in agreener, more sustainable city. And progressives complain?
2. The report says that developers are replacing old buildings with new buildings thatare sold for “a tidy profit.” Fantastic! This means that our city and schools are likewiseraking in massive windfall tax profits.
How so?Developers pay hefty taxes and fees during construction (while providing good jobs
for the economy). But the real windfall for city and schools is from property tax increas-es. Prop 13 only allows property values to be reassessed when a property is sold orimproved. (According to Zillow, some houses north of Montana only pay annual propertytaxes of about $2,000.) But demolish an old building, sell the new one for $6.8 million (anumber cited by Keyser Marston), and the annual property tax jumps to about $85,000.
Considering how well-paid are our city and school employees, and all those schoolbonds that must be repaid (with interest), those windfall tax profits are certainly welcome.
3. Finally, new, more expensive buildings, with lower density, raise nearby propertyvalues, further increasing windfall tax profits for city and schools — for the children! —when those buildings are sold.
Less congestion. Higher property values. More tax revenue. Go Ellis!Thomas M. Sipos

carbon dioxide.“I just came back from the U.N.climate con-
ference in Bonn. I can’t emphasize enough theimportance of doing this fast and furiously,” ajet-lagged Mayor Ted Winterer said at the Nov.14 meeting. Earlier in the night he warnedabout the “imminent and dangerous impacts oftoo much carbon in our atmosphere.”
The conference was the first time the U.S.had not paid to participate in the global cli-mate talks. Instead, an alliance of local gov-ernments, businesses and universitiesattended the conference – the group, callingitself “America’s Pledge,” has an economylarger than Japan and Germany combined.
“I thought it was important to be there totake part in the U.S. presence and show therest of the world that while the federal gov-ernment is not pursuing these policies, thatthe measures various cities and states aretaking will very much help us reach the stan-dard set by the Paris Agreement,” Winterersaid, echoing the words of Governor JerryBrown in Germany who reassured activists“we are doing real stuff in California.”
The plan anticipates the introduction of lowercost, long-range EVs such as the Tesla Model 3,2018 Nissan Leaf, and Chevy Bolt will increasedemand for charging in Santa Monica.Cities andutility providers have developed rebate programsto encourage drivers to switch to electric.
The City plans to install new, smartcharging stations to help city staff monitorusage and eventually develop a fee schedulefor charging that will help pay for system
maintenance. The smart chargers will allowthe City to charge penalty fees to drivers wholeave their electric cars in parking spots afterthey have finished charging.
“We need people to move off of thesechargers,” Councilmember Sue Himmelrichsaid, who drives an electric car and charges itnightly at her home in the North ofMontana neighborhood. Himmelrich saysshe often charges her car while runningerrands around town. “It’s really frustratingto know there’s a charger there that’s fullycharged a car and you can’t get to it.”
The Office of Sustainability worked exten-sively with local group Drive Clean SantaMonica to draft the plan, which is organized byformer City Councilman Kelly-Richard Olsen.
“This overall goal is unprecedented, andif achieved, it will be the most significantthing any City Council in the history ofSanta Monica has done to reduce pollutionin our community,” Olsen said after theCouncil approved the plan. “This is going tobe an incredible challenge for the City. But,we are confident that under the CityManager Rick Cole’s leadership, his talentedand dedicated staff can pull this feat off.”
The plan was passed by Winterer,Himmelrich, Councilmember Tony Vazquez,and Mayor pro-tempore Gleam Davis.Councilmember Terry O’Day excused himselffrom the discussion because he is Vice Presidentat EVgo, an electric vehicle charging company.Councilmembers Kevin McKeown and PamO’Conner were not present at the meeting.

Lunetta, it capitalizes on seasonal eating andtakes a new approach to a classic dish.
“Seasonality is at the heart of every dish.Plus, it’s a fun challenge to incorporate season-al ingredients. My favorite part of any meal isgoing to the farmer’s market and seeing theabundance of fresh herbs and different fruitsand vegetables. It inspires and stimulates me toput a twist on a recipe,” he said.“I always makeroasted root vegetables and great sauces for myown family. I’m always trying to come up withsomething new.”
As a longtime restaurateur, Lunettaspends many of his holidays at work feedingguests but that doesn’t stop him from enjoy-ing the winter festivities.
“I’m an avid surfer, so I love driving upthe coast to Ventura/ Oxnard and seeing allthe farmland lush with fall squash andgourds. Also, the sunsets are most incredi-ble this time of year. There’s something veryspecial about fall light,” he said. “In myopinion, fall and winter are the best time ofyear in Southern California because. Wehave the most amazing sunsets and offshorewinds. The best time for surfing is Octoberthrough December, so it’s heaven for me.”

for short periods of time which makes cook-ing in holiday season unique, tasty and deli-cious. It wouldn’t feel like it was Thanksgivingor Christmas if we were munching on water-melon.”
Lewis said the holidays are a time for spe-cial dishes and his family utilizes a pot lucksystem that distributes the work brings avariety of dishes to the table, even tastes thatdon’t appeal to everyone.
He said despite the presence of the beansin the family’s chicken dish, a plate of noth-
ing but beans isn’t universally welcomed attheir table, especially when served as the tra-ditional green bean casserole.
“For some in the family, they absolutelydespise the flavor of green beans and that isa dish that others love which is somethingthat is cooked and brought to every holidayparty. So usually half the room is fightingover the green beans while others are plug-ging their nose when nearby,” he said. “TheChicken a la Russe also has green beans, butusually those that aren’t fond will just pickthem out.”

These are the last moments of this year’s Scorpio sun. Make the most of them. Dig down past the petti-ness that keeps us small. To think “this problem shouldn’t be mine” or “this is below me” or “what a has-sle” is to engage in an unhelpful and ultimately immature and diminishing mindset. All it takes to be big-ger is to rise up.
Scorpio Sun Digs Down to Rise Up
ARIES (March 21-April 19)There’s this little trap that happens — anunhelpful habit of mind. It has to do with think-ing of happiness as a “then” thing or a “later”thing when happiness is pretty much always a“now” thing.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)There’s a time to think carefully and thorough-ly, but this isn’t it. Don’t take your thoughts tooseriously. They’re not who you are. One way tothink less is to move more.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)Inner peace, evenness, satisfaction — it all comesfrom physical challenge today. Engage your mus-cles and your mind and spirit will get just whatthey need to help you feel right with the world.
CANCER (June 22-July 22)You want to show up strong. Perception isimportant, and it does impact what opportuni-ties you get. That being true, sometimes youmake the strongest impression when you don’tcare so much about how you’re being perceived.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)There’s an opportunity in everything. Forinstance, miscommunication is an opportunityto get to know what another person reallywanted or expected to hear. It’s also a chancefor better understanding.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)The restlessness you feel can be positivelyinterpreted. Let restlessness be a leader thatpoints you toward a more successful path.Otherwise, it becomes a tempter, increasingthe allure of temporary fixes.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)You don’t like what’s going on, so start rightaway with the change. Don’t worry too muchabout what to change exactly. A tweak of anydegree to any part of the equation will make adifference to the outcome.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)There are very few people out there who canwork everything out in their minds before theybegin. Most people learn as they go. Don’tworry if you don’t know what you’re doing.Trust the intelligence of movement.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)Much good will come of an attempt to assessand manage expectations. Yours aren’t thesame as theirs. Where are the discrepancies?What’s not matching up?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)Good interviewers don’t worry too much aboutseeming smart and letting everyone know theydid their research. What makes for a qualityinteraction is honest curiosity.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)No one likes to misplace things. But if you findyourself losing the items of your daily life, it’sa chance to get organized, downsize for sim-plicity’s sake or determine what is truly impor-tant to you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)The difference between people you want to bearound and people you don’t want to be aroundwill be immediately apparent in the way theydeal with the annoyances of daily life.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 20)
A financial opportunity in the next 10 weeks will be your cosmic birthday gift. Nothing is holding youback from adventure in early 2018, so go on and fly. Your family members will cheer you on. Later,they’ll also give you a new direction. Someone who loves you wholeheartedly will make a wish foryou that comes true. Cancer and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 38, 12, 7 and 49.
