His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>Part of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/north-bay\">North Bay\u003c/a> beach known for its popular surf spots has been closed indefinitely after county officials discovered wastewater seeping onto the sand, leaving locals and business owners with lots of unanswered questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The southwest part of Bolinas Beach, which sits at the tip of the part of town known as “Big Mesa,” has been shut down since Sept. 6. Officials found effluent seeping from a couple dozen locations along the bluffs, spanning roughly a mile and a half of the beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effluent was first discovered by Marin County employees inspecting a permit application who noticed pooling liquid in the area, said Sarah Jones, the Community Development Agency’s director. After testing the liquid, they found that it was consistent with bacteria present in human waste, including E. coli.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a community meeting last week, Jones said there had been a “pretty significant amount” of seepage, estimated at about 10 gallons of flow per minute, from various locations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effluent on the bluffs is not a result of a spill or in an area where bacteria is expected, and there have been some reports that locals have observed white crystals identified as a result of the seepage for years. The cause is still unknown, but the waste is likely coming from nearby septic tanks since the homes on the mesa are not on a public sewage system, Jones said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to do analysis and testing to conclude that it’s a result of the septic tanks, but at the same time, there’s no other culprit that we could identify,” Jones told KQED. “There are a large number of septic tanks on top of the mesa, there is effluent coming out of the hillside, and we don’t know where else it could be coming from other than the septic tanks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jones said she didn’t know when the county might have more concrete answers as to what is causing the seepage, how it plans to remediate the issue or when the beach might reopen. At last week’s community meeting, Marin County Chief Health Officer Lisa Santora said it’s possible the closure could extend past November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_12003399 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/DillonBeach1-1020x680.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re really entering the assessment phase to identify what is the true scale and scope of the situation,” Santora said. “We know that the beach is a real critical element of our community here, but just as critical an element as the beach and access to the beach and the enjoyment you find from it, your health is our top priority.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Health and safety code requires closing a beach on which visible sewage is found, Santora said during the meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, some businesses in Bolinas are bearing the brunt of the shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nick Krieger, who runs Bolinas Surf Lessons, said he plans to close his business about six weeks early. Usually, he’ll give lessons through October and sometimes into the first few weeks of November, depending on the weather.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the first weekend of the beach closure, though, he said business has just “fallen off.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s almost nonexistent,” Krieger said. “Usually, I have an online schedule, and I usually fill it with lessons people can book. And I just haven’t filled it up for people to even book because it’s not likely that they’re going to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the first weekend of the partial closure, Krieger was able to give lessons on the eastern portion of Bolinas Beach, between Brighton Avenue and Wharf Road, where no waste was found and which remains open. That is actually the “main break” for surfers, he said, in the channel between Bolinas and Stinson Beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those reservations were made before the closures were announced. Since then, Krieger hasn’t been booking new lessons and said there has been “almost nobody” on the beach apart from locals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The uncertainty around what’s causing the seepage and when the beach could reopen is especially concerning, Krieger said, noting that even a broken sewer pipe would be easier to plan around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If it’s like, ‘We don’t know what this is, and we don’t know how long it’s been here, but now that we know we have to close the beach,’ it’s like, OK, this may not ever get resolved,” Krieger told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a little scary, honestly, having a business there,” he continued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bolinas Community Public Utility District has confirmed that its water, which is piped in, is safe to drink, and Jones said the Community Development Agency is working on a plan to help locals test private wells on their property.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It appears the health risk is confined to the beach. There haven’t been any reports of illness related to the effluent, and water testing conducted along the beachfront found that bacteria levels did not exceed standards for water-contact recreation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If [people are] out in the ocean, it doesn’t appear that there’s a health risk there,” Jones said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The $484 billion relief package includes more than $300 billion to replenish the Paycheck Protection Program, which was depleted in less than two weeks by small businesses seeking forgivable loans to retain or rehire workers during the pandemic. The federal aid will also provide $25 billion to ramp up nationwide testing for the coronavirus and $75 billion for beleaguered hospitals on the frontlines of fighting the pandemic.

On Thursday, they wrapped up testing the entire population of Bolinas, the small coastal town in western Marin county. Not only did they look to see who is actively infected, they also took blood samples to screen for antibodies to the coronavirus. Antibody testing helps scientists understand how widely an illness has spread through a community, even if some who’ve been infected don’t show any symptoms. This weekend, they’ll kick off the next phase of the study to sample more than 5,000 residents in San Francisco’s Mission district. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Bryan Greenhouse, associate professor of medicine, UCSF\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>San Luis Obispo’s Push to Reopen Its Economy\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This week, a bipartisan group of officials from San Luis Obispo County wrote to Gov. Gavin Newsom to ask for permission to pursue “a phased reopening” of the local economy over the next three weeks. The officials pointed to declining infections and hospitalizations from COVID-19 and a recovery rate of more than 80%, according to county officials. The county is expected to release by the end of the week a road map indicating, for example, which businesses could be allowed to open with social distancing and other safeguards in place. Meanwhile, governors across the nation are experiencing pressure to reopen shuttered businesses and relax stay-at-home directives, with crowds of people amassing at state capitols in recent days in defiance of state orders limiting public gatherings.

"content": "\u003cp>In what’s believed to be a first-of-its-kind study, researchers from UCSF are aiming to test as many residents as possible in both the small Marin County community of Bolinas and in San Francisco's bustling Mission District, an ambitious effort to learn more about how the coronavirus is spreading in very different socioeconomic communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The initiative began on Monday in \u003ca href=\"https://bolinastesting.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bolinas\u003c/a>, where medical staff and volunteers, donning personal protective equipment, set up a drive-thru site at the local fire station. There they began testing residents for both the virus and its antibodies, using nasal swabs and a finger-prick blood test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Testing in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.unidosensalud.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mission\u003c/a> is scheduled to begin Saturday at Garfield Park, with additional community locations to be announced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In both locations, testing is free and slated to take place over four consecutive days (with a possible fifth day in the Mission). Residents can schedule appointments online:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://bolinastesting.org/\">Bolinas appointments\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.unidosensalud.org/\">Mission District appointments\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The nasal swab samples, which test for the virus, will be processed at UCSF's lab first. Researchers aim to return test results within 72 hours. Antibody results — used to help identify people who may have been exposed to the virus or have recovered from the COVID-19 infection — will take longer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project also includes contact tracing, in which researchers will notify residents who are infected, find their recent contacts and advise them to quarantine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cyrus Harmon, president and CEO of Olema Pharmaceuticals, a biotech company, and venture capitalist Jyri Engeström, both residents of the tiny, largely white, unincorporated town of Bolinas, led the testing effort there. To date, they have raised about $330,000, with the objective testing nearly all of the town's roughly 1,600 residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's important to start testing healthy people, Harmon said, to better understand \"the dynamics of the virus, how it spreads, what the degree of spread via asymptomatic carriers is, and if, as much of the evidence seems to suggest today, there really is a great deal of transmission via asymptomatic carriers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"coronavirus\"]He and Engeström were inspired by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/home-italian-town-fought-coronavirus-200326110756424.html\">town of Vo Euganeo\u003c/a> in Italy, which was able to test nearly all of its 3,300 residents for the virus, and subsequently help control its spread.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And so the idea was maybe we could do something like that here, and do it in a way that other communities could learn from what we've done,” Harmon said, noting that most Marin County residents can now only get tested for the coronavirus with a doctor's referral.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was really hard to get tested.

There they began testing residents for both the virus and its antibodies, using nasal swabs and a finger-prick blood test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Testing in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.unidosensalud.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mission\u003c/a> is scheduled to begin Saturday at Garfield Park, with additional community locations to be announced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In both locations, testing is free and slated to take place over four consecutive days (with a possible fifth day in the Mission). Residents can schedule appointments online:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://bolinastesting.org/\">Bolinas appointments\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.unidosensalud.org/\">Mission District appointments\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The nasal swab samples, which test for the virus, will be processed at UCSF's lab first. Researchers aim to return test results within 72 hours. Antibody results — used to help identify people who may have been exposed to the virus or have recovered from the COVID-19 infection — will take longer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

To quantify the number and effect of short-term rentals, O’Neal had to become a detective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first place he visits is Google Earth. He looks at pictures of houses and tries to match them with online listings. He then confirms the addresses by driving by the places himself. Finally, he checks public records to see if the owners are local.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When O’Neal finished gathering all his data, he found that 130 homes were being rented by people who didn’t live in the community. That is substantial he said, considering there’s only 1,000 households in all of Bolinas and Stinson, according to the most recent U.S. census data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Neal said he has no problem with people renting out a room or in-law for extra income. He’d just like to see limits on how many entire houses are rented to vacationers instead of locals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s kind of a failure of society to have all this housing and nobody in it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11723645\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11723645\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM-800x619.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"619\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM-800x619.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM-160x124.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM.png 842w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A map of available vacation rentals on Airbnb.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Airbnb disputes that it’s having a big impact on local rentals. A spokesperson for the company said, “vacation rentals have been a part of Stinson Beach and Bolinas for decades,” and that “short-term rentals have created supplemental income for families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of detective work is actually being done by private companies in cities and counties across the state and country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Host Compliance works with over 100 local governments and hires dozens of “desk detectives” to gather information on rentals. The private company even helps collect taxes and writes notices on county or city letterhead to send to those who violate local regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ulrik Binzer is the CEO of Host Compliance. He said the company is filling a niche for communities that don’t have the resources to do this oversight themselves. A town or county may not have the money to hire people for an “Office of Short-Term Rentals,” like San Francisco established. With some 4 million short-term rentals across the country, Binzer said there is plenty of oversight work to do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around California there’s been controversy over the short-term rental services and regulations to limit them. Both Los Angeles and Del Mar, north of San Diego, have enacted contested regulations. In South Lake Tahoe, voters recently passed an ordinance to ban all short-term rentals outside of a designated tourism zone, but some property owners filed a lawsuit against the ordinance and there is pressure to delay implementation of the new rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when regulations do get passed, enforcing them can be another hurdle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco passed rules in 2014 that did things like put a cap on the number of days a place could be rented out, mandate hosts actually live in the house part-time, and require people to register with the city. But most hosts did not register, which made \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10421814/enforcement-issues-remain-as-san-franciscos-airbnb-law-takes-effect\">enforcing the laws difficult\u003c/a>. Only in 2018, after much litigation, did the websites agree to send the city a list of registered hosts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Neal is a fan of the San Francisco laws, and would like to see similar ones enacted in Bolinas and Stinson. He hopes the data he collected will rally community members behind the idea. But some people who are renting out entires houses for most of the year are worried they’ll see a decline in income.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Neal thinks it’s a worthy trade-off if it means more housing for local families. He knows of at least a half-dozen families who are losing their rentals and can’t find another place to live in Bolinas or Stinson Beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I mean it’s paradise here; we just need to get the people back,” O’Neal said. “So we need to open up the housing market to get that to happen.” Living in paradise isn’t worth raising his kids in isolation.\u003c/p>\n\n",

However, it’s difficult for communities to get a clear picture of the extent and impact of these rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Short-term rental services don’t publicize all of their data, and local governments are not usually given access to the addresses and names of people renting out their homes.

San Francisco has hired staff now to oversee the short-term rentals.

As recently as 2000, there was double that number. You can also see the decline in residents at the post office. There used to be a waiting list for P.O. boxes. Now 200 of the 700 boxes are empty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Neal worries the towns are entering death spiral territory, where some families leave not because the school is bad or the housing unaffordable. To quantify the number and effect of short-term rentals, O’Neal had to become a detective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first place he visits is Google Earth. He looks at pictures of houses and tries to match them with online listings. He then confirms the addresses by driving by the places himself. Finally, he checks public records to see if the owners are local.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When O’Neal finished gathering all his data, he found that 130 homes were being rented by people who didn’t live in the community. That is substantial he said, considering there’s only 1,000 households in all of Bolinas and Stinson, according to the most recent U.S. census data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Neal said he has no problem with people renting out a room or in-law for extra income. He’d just like to see limits on how many entire houses are rented to vacationers instead of locals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s kind of a failure of society to have all this housing and nobody in it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11723645\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11723645\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM-800x619.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"619\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM-800x619.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM-160x124.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-05-at-3.00.30-PM.png 842w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A map of available vacation rentals on Airbnb.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Airbnb disputes that it’s having a big impact on local rentals. A spokesperson for the company said, “vacation rentals have been a part of Stinson Beach and Bolinas for decades,” and that “short-term rentals have created supplemental income for families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of detective work is actually being done by private companies in cities and counties across the state and country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Host Compliance works with over 100 local governments and hires dozens of “desk detectives” to gather information on rentals. The private company even helps collect taxes and writes notices on county or city letterhead to send to those who violate local regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ulrik Binzer is the CEO of Host Compliance. He said the company is filling a niche for communities that don’t have the resources to do this oversight themselves. A town or county may not have the money to hire people for an “Office of Short-Term Rentals,” like San Francisco established. With some 4 million short-term rentals across the country, Binzer said there is plenty of oversight work to do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around California there’s been controversy over the short-term rental services and regulations to limit them. Both Los Angeles and Del Mar, north of San Diego, have enacted contested regulations. In South Lake Tahoe, voters recently passed an ordinance to ban all short-term rentals outside of a designated tourism zone, but some property owners filed a lawsuit against the ordinance and there is pressure to delay implementation of the new rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even when regulations do get passed, enforcing them can be another hurdle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco passed rules in 2014 that did things like put a cap on the number of days a place could be rented out, mandate hosts actually live in the house part-time, and require people to register with the city. But most hosts did not register, which made \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10421814/enforcement-issues-remain-as-san-franciscos-airbnb-law-takes-effect\">enforcing the laws difficult\u003c/a>. Only in 2018, after much litigation, did the websites agree to send the city a list of registered hosts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Neal is a fan of the San Francisco laws, and would like to see similar ones enacted in Bolinas and Stinson. He hopes the data he collected will rally community members behind the idea. But some people who are renting out entires houses for most of the year are worried they’ll see a decline in income.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Neal thinks it’s a worthy trade-off if it means more housing for local families. He knows of at least a half-dozen families who are losing their rentals and can’t find another place to live in Bolinas or Stinson Beach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
