Al Stahler of Menlo Park puts on his last spooky spectacleBy Jane KnoerleAlmanac Lifestyles Editor

Al Stahler is gearing up for his last fright night. On Halloween he expects

hundreds to line up in front of his Valparaiso Avenue home ready to be scared out of their wits. This year’s theme is “Zombie-land.”

Loosely based on the 2009 movie, Zombieland will have three special features, says Mr. Stahler: a Zombie Tester, a Zom-bie Apocalypse (landscape lit-tered with dead Zombies), and a Zombie shooting gallery (shoot a Zombie and win a prize). The prizes are assorted Gummi can-dies (think Gummi brains and body parts). Mr. Stahler also promises surprise entertainment for those waiting to enter Zombieland. “We usually have about 100 in

line and admit four at a time,” he says. Zom-bieland opens at 6 and closes at 10 p.m. This year’s scary show will be Al’s 13th and last. Next year the Stahler daughters, Kathleen and Amanda, always a big help to their dad, won’t be around. Kathleen is a student at St. Mary’s College in Moraga, and Amanda is a senior at Menlo-Atherton High School. Al’s wife, Christine, who “has always been a tremendous help,” is usually occupied with the houseful of guests who stay on after the display closes. Al Stahler got hooked on Hal-loween when he was 13. “I was too old to go trick-or-treating, so I started decorating my par-ents’ front porch,” he said in a 2003 article in the Almanac. For a few years after he and Christine, were married, they held a Halloween party in the basement of their home. As Kathleen and Amanda grew older, the event moved to the front yard. “The first year I put out a 6-foot spider with glowing eyes and played scary music. We got five trick-or-treaters.” Last

year they had 800. Over the years, has there been a favorite display? “I think it would be Star Trek in 2009,” he says. Any disasters? “One year we constructed a maze made out of cardboard, and there was a torrential rain the night before Halloween. We had to rescue everything.” He learned to put up tarps and shelters from the rain since the show goes on “rain or shine.” At 5 p.m. on Halloween night, Mr. Stahler and crew will be frantically putting last-minutes touches on this year’s spectacle. Kathleen is driving home to take part one last time, and Amanda has enlisted a dozen high school

classmates to help out. Al’s sis-ters, Mary and Ann, will lend a hand as they have for many years. Looking back, Mr. Stahler says he has taken a lot of satisfaction from the enjoyment he has pro-vided for kids and their parents. As one of his neighbors told him, “You know, I never used to get any kids on Halloween. Now this has become a neighborhood destination.” He’s also happy to see how near-by Sherman Avenue has become “Halloween Central,” with almost every house decorated. What about next year? Won’t it be strange not to be putting on a show? “Maybe I’ll bring out the spider,” he says. A

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Planning Commis-sion of the Town of Portola Valley will conduct a public hearing at 7:30 p.m. on November 7, 2012 on a propos-al to amend the Blue Oaks PUD and an associated Lot Line Adjustment (LLA) to implement the proposed PUD amendments. The proposed amendments and LLA would remove references to below market rate hous-ing, reduce the number of parcels in the residential area owned by the town, i.e., 3 and 5 Buck Meadow Drive (APNs: 080-240-230, -240, -250, and -260), from four (4) to two (2) and make other changes to accommo-date market rate housing on the two adjusted parcels. The proposal is being processed at the direction of the town council for conformity with the provisions of the town’s State certified housing element of the Portola Valley General Plan and provisions associated with the Blue Oaks subdivision record documents.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that at the conclusion of the public hearing the planning commission will con-sider the proposals and may act to approve, approve with conditions or take other actions consistent with findings from project consideration and the public hear-ing. All reports, plans and documents associated with the project are available for review in the Portola Val-ley Planning Department at 765 Portola Road, Portola Valley, California. The specific reports, plans and sup-porting documents for the November 7, 2012 Planning Commission public hearing will be available in the Plan-ning Department on November 2, 2012.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the town staff has de-termined that the proposed PUD amendments and LLA project is categorically exempt from the California En-vironmental Quality Act (CEQA). Both the PUD amend-ments and LLA are found categorically exempt pursu-ant to CEQA Section 15305.

All interested persons are invited to appear before the Planning Commission at the time above-mentioned. The public hearing will be conducted in the Historic School House meeting room at the town center, 765 Portola Road. If someone challenges the proposed ac-tion in court, he or she may be limited to raising only those issues raised at the public meetings conducted on the proposal or in written correspondence delivered to the town at or prior to the public meetings.

The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are consid-ering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automati-cally entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged

to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder ‘s office or a title insur-ance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mort-gage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-730-2727 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www.lpsasap.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 20120187403763. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the tele-phone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are consid-ering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automati-cally entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insur-ance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mort-gage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, this information can be obtained from one of the follow-ing three companies: LPS Agency Sales and Posting at (714) 730-2727, or visit the Internet Web site www.lpsasap.com (Registration required to search for sale information) or Priority Posting and Publishing at (714) 573-1965 or visit the Internet Web site www.prioritypost-ing.com (Click on the link for “Advanced Search” to search for sale information), or auction.com at 1-800-280-2832 or visit the Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the Trustee Sale No. shown above. Information about postpone-ments that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the

scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. A-4317364 10/31/2012, 11/07/2012, 11/14/2012ALM
