"content": "\u003cp>The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to place a measure on the ballot asking voters to grant them the authority to remove embattled Sheriff Christina Corpus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move to advance the charter amendment means Corpus could face a political two-punch combo, as a recall campaign is also in its early stages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following a near monthlong barrage of demands for Corpus to resign, the \u003ca href=\"https://sanmateocounty.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=A&ID=1124306&GUID=CCFDEBB9-43F6-45D9-B73C-9ACC611D0A95\">board’s vote calls for a special election\u003c/a> in March, when voters will decide whether to give the five-member body the authority to remove the sheriff by a four-fifths vote “after written notice and an opportunity to be heard.” That authority would expire at the end of 2028 when Corpus’ first term ends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Does this charter amendment being placed on the ballot take away the power from the voters? I want to be very clear, no, it does not,” said Supervisor Noelia Corzo, among the sheriff’s most vocal detractors. “This is going to be in front of the voters. The voters will inform themselves, and they will make educated votes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several people — including two attorneys representing Corpus — used the public comment section of Tuesday’s meeting to oppose the charter amendment, saying the process was moving too fast. Others said they didn’t want the will of the voters who elected Corpus in 2022 to be subjugated and threatened legal action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board also passed a formal request for Corpus to come to its Dec. 10 meeting to testify and answer questions under oath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Corzo abstained from that vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m extremely concerned that even under oath, our sheriff will use this as a platform to continue to lie,” Corzo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board, last month, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12014310/san-mateo-county-supervisors-to-hold-vote-of-no-confidence-in-sheriff-christina-corpus\">voted unanimously for Corpus to resign\u003c/a> shortly after the release of a \u003ca href=\"https://sanmateocounty.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=13544883&GUID=95923619-2B6F-477A-8684-CD64124A3BAA\">408-page official investigation\u003c/a> of Corpus’ executive team, detailing a litany of transgressions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"more on Christina Corpus\" tag=\"christina-corpus\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Fear of retaliation is rampant in the organization,” the report said. “Lies, secrecy, intimidation, retaliation, conflicts of interest, and abuses of authority are the hallmarks of the Corpus administration.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, there have been a number of high-ranking officers in the department who have resigned, including an acting assistant sheriff and a captain who allegedly refused to arrest the president of the sheriff’s deputies union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board last month also voted to defund the department’s non-sworn executive director position held by Victor Aenlle — the sheriff’s alleged lover — but Corpus preemptively promoted him to assistant sheriff, a position that county officials say he isn’t legally allowed to hold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.smcsheriff.com/sites/default/files/articles/11-26-2024%20A%20letter%20to%20the%20employees%20of%20the%20Sheriff%27s%20Office%20and%20the%20San%20Mateo%20County%20community%20from%20Sheriff%20Christina%20Corpus.pdf\">letter dated Nov. 26\u003c/a>, Corpus again said she would not be resigning and chided the board for “pursuing amendments that erode democratic accountability.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This moment challenges not only my leadership but the independence and integrity of this Office. I will not step down, nor will I allow this institution to be politicized or influenced by special interests,” Corpus wrote but did not specify what special interests she was referring to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Corpus has served as sheriff since 2023, becoming the first woman and first Latina to hold the office after defeating the incumbent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Mateo County Deputy Sheriff’s Association (DSA) and Organization of Sheriff’s Sergeants (OSS) issued a joint statement the next day, calling Corpus’ refusal to resign “not an act of defiance but a glaring display of contempt for the overwhelming consensus of those who see the damage caused under your administration.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will no longer work with you. That ship has sailed,” the statement said. “All you are doing is playing the role of victim within a disaster of your own making. Quit.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The DSA, this week, filed an unfair labor charge with the State Public Employment Relations Board alleging that Aenlle retaliated against its members by threatening to sue them after they held a vote of no confidence against him in September.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also gathering momentum is the separate push to recall Corpus, an effort being led by Caltrain CEO and former Redwood City Mayor \u003ca href=\"https://www.chambersmc.org/jim-hartnett/\">Jim Hartnett. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recall campaign must gather signatures from 10% of registered county voters — about 46,000 people. County Attorney John D.

By July 2023, Corpus had hired Aenlle, a real estate broker, as her office’s executive director, raising his salary to nearly $247,000. On several occasions, Corpus requested he get further pay increases, which the county denied, the report noted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was no announcement of this job opening, and no applicants other than Aenlle,” Cordell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Aenlle was a non-sworn employee, Corpus still issued him a gold badge – potentially a misdemeanor, Cordell noted – and counted him among her reserve sheriff’s deputies – or \u003ca href=\"https://hsd.smcsheriff.com/divisions/homeland-security-division/emergency-services-bureau/reserve-deputies\">trained and sworn volunteers\u003c/a> – even though he did not meet the requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cordell also found that “Corpus and Victor Aenlle have a personal relationship, beyond mere friendship,” despite denying that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Aenlle’s and Sheriff Corpus’ dishonesty about their personal relationship, their incompetent management of the sheriff’s office, and Sheriff Corpus’ shocking willingness to relinquish control of the Office to a real-estate-broker- turned-Reserve-Deputy, who failed to complete the Field Officer Training Program, have combined to leave the sheriff’s office in utter disarray,” Cordell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After publicly decrying this investigation as a ‘witch hunt,’ Sheriff Corpus refused the offer of this investigator to respond to the serious allegations lodged against her and her leadership team. Her silence speaks volumes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriff’s office did not respond to KQED’s request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cordell also found evidence to support allegations that Corpus used racist and homophobic language while on the job. In early 2022, Corpus, then a captain in the office, used the N-word twice to describe Bolanos, the sheriff at the time, and, later that year, used “a homophobic slur” to criticize a City Council member.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report also found that Aenlle – who is still a \u003ca href=\"https://www2.dre.ca.gov/publicasp/pplinfo.asp?License_id=01122395\">broker\u003c/a> with Coldwell Banker – played “a major role” in securing a lease for a new substation, brokered by his firm, in what Cordell called a clear conflict of interest that Corpus should not have allowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly all 318 members of the deputy sheriffs’ union recently held a vote of no confidence in Aenlle, which “attests to the extreme level of discontent with their leadership,” Cordell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its \u003ca href=\"https://sanmateocounty.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=13544880&GUID=F72DB822-76E1-4509-99C8-273C9736EDF5\">resolution calling for a vote of no confidence\u003c/a>, the board said \u003ca href=\"https://www.smcgov.org/ceo/news/statement-sheriffs-office-investigation-san-mateo-county-supervisor-ray-mueller-behalf\">Corpus fired Assistant Sheriff Ryan Monaghan\u003c/a> in September “in retaliation” for participating in Cordell’s investigation and noted that since she assumed office, at least 106 sworn deputies have quit, half of whom were not yet eligible for retirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a press conference on Tuesday announcing the findings of the report, Supervisor Noelia Corzo called Corpus’ relationship with Aenlle a “clear violation of the county’s nepotism policy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisor Ray Mueller said the report shows the sheriff’s office is run like “a good old boy network.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just a question of who is now exercising that power over others in a way that demands loyalty at all expenses,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mueller said the board will be referring Cordell’s report to the county’s civil grand jury and the District Attorney’s Office, noting that the board doesn’t currently have independent authority to remove the sheriff..\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Board of Supervisors wants every member of the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office to know that your concerns have been heard and we are fully committed to addressing the findings of this independent investigation,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Mueller and Corzo also said they were concerned by Tapia’s arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While we do not know the facts surrounding the arrest or the merits of the case,” Corzo said, “we know it is highly irregular in San Mateo County for the sheriff’s office to conduct a criminal investigation and arrest a member of their own department.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tapia was released Tuesday on a $10,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on Dec. 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Corpus, in a statement, said she stands by Tapia’s arrest and called the county’s report “a hatchet job” that’s full of lies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, the San Mateo County Deputy Sheriff’s Association said that Corpus is abusing her power by not referring Tapia’s case to the District Attorney’s Office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The San Mateo DSA condemns acts of retaliation against any San Mateo employee for speaking out against the misconduct of elected officials and will vigorously defend President Tapia against these allegations,” the statement said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

I will not tolerate the sheriff’s abuse of her authority and retaliation against our union,” Tapia said in a written statement to reporters following his release from jail on Tuesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county’s lead counsel hired Cordell to conduct the investigation after several sheriff’s office employees complained of harassment, mistreatment and retaliation from Victor Aenlle, the office’s executive director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following interviews with 40 current and former sworn deputies and civilian employees, Cordell concluded that the “Corpus/Aenlle administration is obsessed with loyalty that borders on paranoia.” Examples included Aenlle requesting that offices “be swept for bugging devices” and voicing concerns that staff were leaking information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

By July 2023, Corpus had hired Aenlle, a real estate broker, as her office’s executive director, raising his salary to nearly $247,000. On several occasions, Corpus requested he get further pay increases, which the county denied, the report noted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was no announcement of this job opening, and no applicants other than Aenlle,” Cordell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Aenlle was a non-sworn employee, Corpus still issued him a gold badge – potentially a misdemeanor, Cordell noted – and counted him among her reserve sheriff’s deputies – or \u003ca href=\"https://hsd.smcsheriff.com/divisions/homeland-security-division/emergency-services-bureau/reserve-deputies\">trained and sworn volunteers\u003c/a> – even though he did not meet the requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cordell also found that “Corpus and Victor Aenlle have a personal relationship, beyond mere friendship,” despite denying that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Aenlle’s and Sheriff Corpus’ dishonesty about their personal relationship, their incompetent management of the sheriff’s office, and Sheriff Corpus’ shocking willingness to relinquish control of the Office to a real-estate-broker- turned-Reserve-Deputy, who failed to complete the Field Officer Training Program, have combined to leave the sheriff’s office in utter disarray,” Cordell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After publicly decrying this investigation as a ‘witch hunt,’ Sheriff Corpus refused the offer of this investigator to respond to the serious allegations lodged against her and her leadership team. Her silence speaks volumes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriff’s office did not respond to KQED’s request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cordell also found evidence to support allegations that Corpus used racist and homophobic language while on the job. In early 2022, Corpus, then a captain in the office, used the N-word twice to describe Bolanos, the sheriff at the time, and, later that year, used “a homophobic slur” to criticize a City Council member.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report also found that Aenlle – who is still a \u003ca href=\"https://www2.dre.ca.gov/publicasp/pplinfo.asp?License_id=01122395\">broker\u003c/a> with Coldwell Banker – played “a major role” in securing a lease for a new substation, brokered by his firm, in what Cordell called a clear conflict of interest that Corpus should not have allowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly all 318 members of the deputy sheriffs’ union recently held a vote of no confidence in Aenlle, which “attests to the extreme level of discontent with their leadership,” Cordell wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its \u003ca href=\"https://sanmateocounty.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=13544880&GUID=F72DB822-76E1-4509-99C8-273C9736EDF5\">resolution calling for a vote of no confidence\u003c/a>, the board said \u003ca href=\"https://www.smcgov.org/ceo/news/statement-sheriffs-office-investigation-san-mateo-county-supervisor-ray-mueller-behalf\">Corpus fired Assistant Sheriff Ryan Monaghan\u003c/a> in September “in retaliation” for participating in Cordell’s investigation and noted that since she assumed office, at least 106 sworn deputies have quit, half of whom were not yet eligible for retirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a press conference on Tuesday announcing the findings of the report, Supervisor Noelia Corzo called Corpus’ relationship with Aenlle a “clear violation of the county’s nepotism policy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisor Ray Mueller said the report shows the sheriff’s office is run like “a good old boy network.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just a question of who is now exercising that power over others in a way that demands loyalty at all expenses,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mueller said the board will be referring Cordell’s report to the county’s civil grand jury and the District Attorney’s Office, noting that the board doesn’t currently have independent authority to remove the sheriff..\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Board of Supervisors wants every member of the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office to know that your concerns have been heard and we are fully committed to addressing the findings of this independent investigation,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both Mueller and Corzo also said they were concerned by Tapia’s arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“While we do not know the facts surrounding the arrest or the merits of the case,” Corzo said, “we know it is highly irregular in San Mateo County for the sheriff’s office to conduct a criminal investigation and arrest a member of their own department.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tapia was released Tuesday on a $10,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on Dec. 9.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Corpus, in a statement, said she stands by Tapia’s arrest and called the county’s report “a hatchet job” that’s full of lies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, the San Mateo County Deputy Sheriff’s Association said that Corpus is abusing her power by not referring Tapia’s case to the District Attorney’s Office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For some teachers, the fact that their salaries \u003ca href=\"https://www.edweek.org/teaching-learning/better-pay-would-keep-teachers-from-quitting-but-theres-more-to-it/2022/07\">can’t keep up with the increased cost of living\u003c/a> has some considering leaving the profession altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, more school districts across California are taking matters into their own hands by getting into the business of building housing for their teachers and staff on empty parking lots, unused office buildings and other excess land. And, in the Bay Area, two districts are turning to bond measures to help pay for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those two bonds — \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/voterguide/santaclara/measures#measure-r\">Measure R in Santa Clara County\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/voterguide/sanmateo/measures#measure-k\">Measure K in San Mateo County\u003c/a> — would raise $1.15 billion and $153 million, respectively, to pay for upgrades to school district facilities.

And, as state leaders are faced with a lofty goal to plan for 2.5 million new homes statewide by 2030, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11997949/california-schools-keep-losing-teachers-the-state-wants-to-help-build-homes-for-them\">they are encouraging school districts to be more proactive\u003c/a> about building housing for their staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Mateo County, a group of parents and teachers at the Cabrillo Unified School District saw other school districts develop housing for their employees and were inspired to campaign to get Measure K on the ballot. If approved by voters, most of the $153 million will be used to fix classrooms, according to members of the board. Some of the money can also be used to construct educator housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San José Unified School District’s Measure R anticipates dedicating approximately $283 million of the total $1.15 billion bond to build housing for staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12010731\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12010731\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-12-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-12-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-12-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-12-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-12-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-12-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-12-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A brochure supporting Measure R In San José. \u003ccite>(Gina Castro/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Renata Sanchez, president of the San José Teachers Union, said the district has seen employee vacancy rates rise, especially among instructional associates, the staff who support special education teachers, and who are often paid less than teachers.

According to Scott Roark, a spokesperson for the Department of Education, more than 150 districts across the state are now in “some stage of developing housing on district property.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Troy Flint, a spokesperson for the California School Board Association, said districts are well-positioned to develop housing because they already own the land. And he argued such projects tend to have a shorter timeline than traditional affordable housing projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The land or the buildings that the school districts own — that is under their control, and they have a lot of autonomy,” he said. “You can get from concept to people moving into housing in as little as five years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez and others in the San José Unified School District have concrete plans for where they would build the new housing if their bond passes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One project would turn an empty parking lot into 75 studio and one-bedroom apartments with parking underground. Another would move a magnet school to a larger campus and use the existing land to build approximately 120 apartments and townhomes.

Santa Clara Unified School District was the first district to build housing for its staff, according to the California School Board Association. The apartment complex, \u003ca href=\"https://www.santaclarausd.org/about-us/departments/facility-development-and-planning/teacher-housing-foundation\">named Casa Del Maestro\u003c/a>, opened in 2002 and has 70 one- and two-bedroom apartments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This summer, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11997949/california-schools-keep-losing-teachers-the-state-wants-to-help-build-homes-for-them\">Department of Education announced an initiative\u003c/a> to help schools navigate the muddy waters of housing development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In August, the California School Board Association hosted a summit with school district staff, affordable housing advocates and researchers to look into how schools can more effectively build housing. According to Scott Roark, a spokesperson for the Department of Education, more than 150 districts across the state are now in “some stage of developing housing on district property.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Troy Flint, a spokesperson for the California School Board Association, said districts are well-positioned to develop housing because they already own the land. And he argued such projects tend to have a shorter timeline than traditional affordable housing projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The land or the buildings that the school districts own — that is under their control, and they have a lot of autonomy,” he said. “You can get from concept to people moving into housing in as little as five years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez and others in the San José Unified School District have concrete plans for where they would build the new housing if their bond passes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One project would turn an empty parking lot into 75 studio and one-bedroom apartments with parking underground. Another would move a magnet school to a larger campus and use the existing land to build approximately 120 apartments and townhomes. Their third site would build educator housing on what is currently a special education school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12010729\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12010729\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-4-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-4-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-4-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-4-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-4-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-4-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/20241022_SCHOOLDISTRICTHOUSING_GC-4-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The proposed site for educator housing on Lenzen Avenue, currently used as an employee parking lot for the San José Unified School District in San José.

Mike Alifano, a Half Moon Bay resident and member of previous school bond oversight committees, said this is the district’s first bond measure to mention teacher housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re a community that doesn’t like a lot of change, and it’s because we want to keep this look and feel of the way things are right now,” he said. “There were other areas [the district] was looking at in different communities, and we had a bit of pushback in those communities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez said there have been plans to develop teacher housing in San José since 2020, but once the pandemic hit, the district had to put the projects on hold.

The agency responded in a letter that it cannot compel a hospital to offer emergency services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency also said it anticipated the impact of the temporary closure would be “minimal” because the coastside emergency department was used as a standby facility, “which assessed fewer than five patients a day, who were then either released or transferred to the Daly City campus for additional care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her letter to Bonta, Eshoo said the agency saying the impact would not be significant is offensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As the only facility providing emergency services for 55 miles along the Pacific Coastline, Seton Coastside has been a lifeline for acute medical emergencies, and CDPH’s assertion suggests to me that the Department had no understanding of the area and made a decision lacking a knowledge of it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also wrote that she had a “highly unsatisfactory” call with Dr. Tomás Aragón, the head of the CDPH, in June, where he told her his hands were tied, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eshoo has cast doubt on whether any repair work is actually happening, noting her staff have been to the site multiple times this year since April and saw no work taking place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11993828\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11993828\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240712-SETON-MOSS-BEACH-JG-01-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240712-SETON-MOSS-BEACH-JG-01-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240712-SETON-MOSS-BEACH-JG-01-KQED-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240712-SETON-MOSS-BEACH-JG-01-KQED-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240712-SETON-MOSS-BEACH-JG-01-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240712-SETON-MOSS-BEACH-JG-01-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/240712-SETON-MOSS-BEACH-JG-01-KQED-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A security guard walks around the grounds of the temporarily closed Seton Coastside medical facility in Moss Beach on April 11, 2024. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Rep. Anna Eshoo's Office)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>AHMC bought the coastside facility along with Seton Medical Center in Daly City from nonprofit Verity Health in 2020, and in doing so, agreed to a list of conditions from the attorney general’s office at the time. Chief among those conditions was that it would keep running the facility through mid-December 2025, including the 24-hour standby emergency department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I certainly hope that the AG of California chooses to pursue the actions that need to be taken to bring a suit against them because I believe that they have walked away from the responsibilities that are contained in the contract,” Eshoo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eshoo isn’t alone in her concerns. San Mateo County supervisors earlier this month approved spending nearly $500,000 to have Dignity Health Medical Foundation open a temporary urgent care facility in its existing clinic in Half Moon Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Services are set to begin on Oct. 1 and run through March 2025 as a pilot program, with the option to extend the contract by another six months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the closure of Seton Coastside, “residents have expressed concern that getting timely access to urgent care services requires going ‘over the hill’ via a two-lane highway subject to frequent traffic jams and stoppages,” a county memo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county memo also noted concerns about “the large number of seniors” that might be challenged by long drives to get urgent care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisor Ray Mueller added that during the summer, the roads serving the coastal area often have “horrendous traffic” that could force someone seeking emergency medical care to be in the car more than an hour to reach another facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the temporary urgent care facility won’t fill the entire gap left by Seton’s closure, because it won’t operate 24 hours a day, and will only be open six days a week. The county is also looking into funding a vehicle with emergency room capabilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s been unhappy with what he described as a lack of transparency around the closure, including whether the storm damage actually affected the emergency department, and what kind of vetting of AHMC’s reasoning for the closure has been done by the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He noted a skilled nursing facility at the coastside building was closed for repairs much earlier than the emergency department and said he hasn’t received clear answers from Seton officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want this information verified, and the only entity that can verify it for us is going to be the Attorney General’s office,” Mueller said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Someone has to look at it and say whether or not it was appropriate. “We have to step into the void, provide taxpayer money, provide for the public health, when there’s a contract that’s supposed to do that,” Mueller said. “And no one is investigating whether or not this contract is being enforced appropriately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta’s office and Seton Medical Center’s associate chief operating officer, Tim Schulze, did not respond to requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta is also being asked \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11987665/advocates-urge-state-to-intervene-in-closure-of-san-jose-trauma-center\">by local and state leaders to intervene in a similar situation in East San José\u003c/a>, where the only trauma center on that side of Santa Clara County is planned to be shuttered Aug. 12.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American Hospital Corporation, or AHC Healthcare, cited declining patients as a reason to close the facility at its Regional Medical Center, along with a reduction in the quality of its stroke services and the elimination of its serious heart attack services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County Supervisor Cindy Chavez, doctors, nurses and patient advocates have called on Bonta to step in to prevent the closure, which they say puts residents’ lives at risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"anchor\">\u003c/a>\u003cem>July 15: The original version of this report incorrectly spelled San Mateo County Supervisor Ray Mueller’s first name.

Anna Eshoo's Office)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>AHMC bought the coastside facility along with Seton Medical Center in Daly City from nonprofit Verity Health in 2020, and in doing so, agreed to a list of conditions from the attorney general’s office at the time. Chief among those conditions was that it would keep running the facility through mid-December 2025, including the 24-hour standby emergency department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I certainly hope that the AG of California chooses to pursue the actions that need to be taken to bring a suit against them because I believe that they have walked away from the responsibilities that are contained in the contract,” Eshoo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eshoo isn’t alone in her concerns. San Mateo County supervisors earlier this month approved spending nearly $500,000 to have Dignity Health Medical Foundation open a temporary urgent care facility in its existing clinic in Half Moon Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Services are set to begin on Oct. 1 and run through March 2025 as a pilot program, with the option to extend the contract by another six months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the closure of Seton Coastside, “residents have expressed concern that getting timely access to urgent care services requires going ‘over the hill’ via a two-lane highway subject to frequent traffic jams and stoppages,” a county memo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county memo also noted concerns about “the large number of seniors” that might be challenged by long drives to get urgent care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supervisor Ray Mueller added that during the summer, the roads serving the coastal area often have “horrendous traffic” that could force someone seeking emergency medical care to be in the car more than an hour to reach another facility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the temporary urgent care facility won’t fill the entire gap left by Seton’s closure, because it won’t operate 24 hours a day, and will only be open six days a week. The county is also looking into funding a vehicle with emergency room capabilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s been unhappy with what he described as a lack of transparency around the closure, including whether the storm damage actually affected the emergency department, and what kind of vetting of AHMC’s reasoning for the closure has been done by the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He noted a skilled nursing facility at the coastside building was closed for repairs much earlier than the emergency department and said he hasn’t received clear answers from Seton officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want this information verified, and the only entity that can verify it for us is going to be the Attorney General’s office,” Mueller said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Someone has to look at it and say whether or not it was appropriate. “We have to step into the void, provide taxpayer money, provide for the public health, when there’s a contract that’s supposed to do that,” Mueller said. “And no one is investigating whether or not this contract is being enforced appropriately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta’s office and Seton Medical Center’s associate chief operating officer, Tim Schulze, did not respond to requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta is also being asked \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11987665/advocates-urge-state-to-intervene-in-closure-of-san-jose-trauma-center\">by local and state leaders to intervene in a similar situation in East San José\u003c/a>, where the only trauma center on that side of Santa Clara County is planned to be shuttered Aug. 12.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>American Hospital Corporation, or AHC Healthcare, cited declining patients as a reason to close the facility at its Regional Medical Center, along with a reduction in the quality of its stroke services and the elimination of its serious heart attack services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County Supervisor Cindy Chavez, doctors, nurses and patient advocates have called on Bonta to step in to prevent the closure, which they say puts residents’ lives at risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca id=\"anchor\">\u003c/a>\u003cem>July 15: The original version of this report incorrectly spelled San Mateo County Supervisor Ray Mueller’s first name.
