CAMP 210I’m a volunteer at Camp 210, the houseless

encampment and protest outside of Bellingham City Hall, and am speaking as an individual.

Last week, Mayor Seth Fleetwood ordered a “clean up” (sweep) of 25 feet from the walls of City Hall. This would require about half of our camp to move even closer together, which directly violates current COVID-19 regulations. There are 75 to 100 people at City Hall, with many others gathering in the daytime for food, drink and resources.

I understand the disturbance last week is unsettling for our community, especially in the wake of what occurred in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6, but I was at City Hall, working in the food tent and providing coffee, cocoa and hot food, as well as helping people find tents, supplies and alternative options (Base Camp, Housing First, etc).

Yes, people were angry. A combination of community members, campers and volunteers were present.

Approximately 100 people showed up, in addition to campers and volunteers. About 20 people, seeing Fleetwood looking out the window of his office, made demands for him to come out and speak to the community. It was loud and abrasive. I can understand being scared in the situation. The door was rattled and pulled on, and at some point

(I don’t know how) the door was opened.Nothing was broken.The building was occupied for about 20 minutes,

with most people calmly sitting in a circle. No one sat in the mayor’s desk or tore down statues, and everyone left peacefully when asked.

In normal times, City Hall is open to the public, and is a common space for the community to gather and express their needs.

There was graffiti outside, which I was not happy about, and plan to address. Campers also expressed their distress at the graffiti; however, Camp 210 is an autonomous space. The people that occupied—which I consider much closer to a “sit-in” than a “storm”—decided to do so for themselves, not as part of a larger group.

On Saturday morning, a teenage volunteer came down with support from their parents and fellow volunteers to organize a pancake breakfast on a sunny day. We spoke with our neighbors, both housed and houseless, and while they expressed anxiety about the potential imminent sweep, they also spoke about anger and frustration for the lack of respect for human rights regarding the housing crisis.

I personally request the City of Bellingham and Whatcom County to provide us with space for 75 homes, with no barrier access, in a site with access to power, water and basic resources like restrooms and waste disposal.

Twenty-five houses have been offered.

THISWEEK

COVER: Illustration by Angel Boligan

Thanks to a meme with staying power, former presidential candidate and casually dressed inauguration attendee Bernie “Mittens” Sanders was spotted at several Bellingham-based venues this week. Whether he was waiting for the Whatcom Museum to reopen, hanging out alone at the Shakedown, driving a Whatcom Humane Society truck, sitting in front of Good Earth Pottery, Rumors Cabaert, or the Old World Deli, or joining jams with local musicians, his calming presence was a welcome one.

RESTAURANT NEWSBELLY UP FOR A BOOT

After building out a swanky covered seating area/containment unit for rowdy drinkers, the Cabin Tavern has reopened and they’d like everyone to head on in for a plate of tacos and a boot full of the strongest margarita in town. Be sure to mask up and follow the rules—owner Christian Danielson does not mess around with COVID safety.

TIME FOR THE ENDGAMEAlso getting in on

the outdoor seating action is Holly Street bar Endgame. Their setup is simple—a couple of picnic tables and umbrellas, some rudimentary fencing, but these days, simple is just fine and we’ll take what we can get. Stop by and support them with a drink and a snack.

A STONES THROW TO MAMBOOr, rather, Mambo to Stones Throw.

Fairhaven’s longtime eatery Mambo Italiano Cafe has teamed up with its most homey brewery, Stones Throw, in a partnership sure to satiate many appetites. Now you can order your

smoked salmon penne while you drink a pint of Neighborhood IPA and Mambo will bring your food to you at the brewery. Life is good.

SALTADENA POP-UPTRES LECHERIA

I know very little about Seattle bakery Tres Lecheria save for they’re the winners of Netflix’s Sugar Rush: Christmas and Food Network’s Winner Cake All; they sell horchata, dulce de leche, and Mexican mocha cakes by the slice; and they’ll be at Saltadena Bakery for a Jan. 31 cake pop-up. Turns out, that’s all I need to know.

DICK’S FOOD TRUCKTHE SEQUEL

The Dick’s Drive-In food truck came to town last weekend and it seemed everyone either stood in line for it or had an opinion about it. If you missed your chance to score a Deluxe (i.e. my platonic ideal of a perfect burger, don’t @ me), the truck will be back for a Feb. 5 visit to the Lummi Bay Market at exit 260.

CARE FIRSTDOGGIE DAYCARE

The petsitters of Care First Pet Services have room in their doggie daycare for new pups to join in the fun. Not only will they keep your precious pooch occupied while you work, but they’ll also make your life easier by coming to fetch Fido for his day of fetch. Find out more at (253) 861-7686.

KEEP MUSIC LIVEGRANT APPLICATIONS OPEN

One of the moments indie music venues have been waiting for has arrived: The application process for Keep Music Live, the fundraising effort administered by our very own Whatcom Community Foundation, is now open. The final day to apply is Tues., Feb. 2 with the first round of grants to be paid out in February and expected to average $5,000 each. To apply or donate, find out more at www.keepmusiclivewa.com.

This is not enough. In addition, basic needs like garbage disposal and public restrooms have now been stripped from us. This sickens me.

There are a variety of reasons houseless people are not able to access the other services that have been offered. We have volunteers and energy to support this vision.

It hurts my heart to see our neighbors in the cold. I encourage community members to reach out to each other and our elected officials. Now, more than ever, donations are crucial. See @bopmutualaid for more information.

—Jesse Thurston, Bellingham

FORMULAS DON’T FIX HOUSING SECURITY

In the more than 25 years since I moved to Bellingham, and even before when I lived in Seattle, I have always been really annoyed when people cite “supply ’n’ demand” as the explanation for housing shortages. This is a gross oversimplification of a complex mix of causes influenced by zoning, taxation, regulation, job opportunities, availability of credit, banking, domestic and foreign investment and other factors.

One change that might ease the local housing situation is to persuade (or somehow require) landlords and property management companies to reconsider their tenant-screening requirements. Landlords insist on the “income = 3 x rent” rule, but with rent for a studio apartment starting at around $900/month and the minimum wage of $13.69/hour, no entry-level retail or service worker can qualify to rent a private apartment, even working a 40-hour week.

For my own situation, I have been trying to find a nicer, more conveniently located apartment for eight years. I have income from part-time work, and investment interest and dividends, along with cash savings and a retirement fund. When I applied for credit recently, my credit bureau scores came in at around 800.

Yet, if I apply for an apartment, the rental office insists on seeing paycheck stubs. Managers are suspicious about my income sources, and ask how I can possibly live on what I earn. I hardly bother looking anymore, and don’t like to waste money on screening fees when I know I won’t qualify.

My finances are modest but secure. It’s no wonder so many people who aren’t as fortunate are so desperate.

—Anna Silverfish, Ferndale

CLEAN CARS 2030As it stands today, transportation

accounts for 25 percent of our emissions as a state, and as a country, our

transportation sector produces more greenhouse gases than every other country’s entire economy, excluding India and China. Without a change in direction, this will continue the environmental destruction we have seen like the recent wildfires, the tropical storms emboldened in the south, and the increased frequency of floods.

This is why WashPIRG, a student-run activist organization, is supporting legislation recently introduced in the State House and Senate, the Clean Cars 2030 bill, which will require all cars made after 2030 to be fully electric, and to construct supporting infrastructure including charging stations and other changes to our grid including using electric cars to store extra energy during different times of the day. Provisions are included to aid both drivers and car manufacturers to make this transition.

Alongside the current legislation to convert Washington to 100 percent renewable energy by 2050, we need a faster change to our transportation infrastructure so that we’re prepared to utilize that energy for a greener future.

California has passed a similar bill, but theirs won’t take effect until 2040.

Washington is primed to make this leap and Clean Cars 2030 already has 28 sponsors in both the state House and Senate.

It’s time that Washington gets back to being the leader on climate change that we know we are.

—Jackson Hoppis, Olympia

ANOTHER DAY OF INFAMYOur boys and girls have returned

from their hate-filled attempted coup. Not unlike a scolded puppy their return home spoke to their failure to enthrone him who sought to be president for life.

Having been seduced by empty promises, having their passions aroused by accusations of fraud (by the expert fraudster himself), having lost touch with our Constitution’s precepts, and having decades of perverted education they erupted onto the D.C. Mall.

Their wanton frenzy displayed not a lack of intelligence so much as a severe lack of moral upbringing. One could almost say it showed the presence of evil in our midst. What else can drive any of us into such fury that we ignore civil obligations, much less human rights?

Was this inglorious action a slight diversion from normal, a blip on the radar screen and soon to disappear? Probably not—the presence of evil is always with us, and more than likely will erupt again with lots more actors joining our “boys and girls” to serve as minions for Mr. Trump.

CAMP 210 UNREST

Violence erupts at the homeless camp outside Bellingham City Hall. One day after two groups were injured by others brandishing weapons, protestors stormed the building during a rally against plans to clean up the homeless encampment. Several protestors pried open the doors to City Hall and entered the lobby. Mayor Seth Fleetwood was escorted out of the building. No damage was done to the building and no one was hurt. The mayor called the evolving situation “complex, challenging and dynamic.”

1/5Portion of the 10 U.S. House Republicans who voted for the second impeachment of Donald Trump who were from Washington state—prompting threats of primary challengers, censures and other rebukes against Republican Reps. Jaime Herrera

Beutler and Dan Newhouse from their hometown party organizations.

61Percent of Republicans in Washington state who either have no confidence (29

percent) or express doubts (32 percent) that their 2020 ballot was counted fairly. This in a state whose elections have been administered by Republican secretaries of state since 1964. Angry backlash has prompted current Secretary of State Kim

Wyman to reconsider her continued membership in the party.

46Percent of Washington voters who identify as Democrats, versus 24 percent who

identify as Republican and 36 percent as Independent. The gap between the parties has grown from a five-point Democrat advantage before 2000 to a 15-point advantage in 2020, reflecting Washington’s evolution from a competitive, ticket-

splitting battleground to a deep blue state.

56 51Percent of Republicans who live in small towns (33 percent) or rural

areas (23 percent). Nearly 70 percent of Democrats live in urban areas (34

percent) or suburbs (35 percent). More than 71 percent are over the age of 50

Percent of Republicans who live outside of the Puget Sound corridor, from Pierce

to Whatcom counties, including 30 percent in Eastern Washington and 21

percent along the coast.

1265Number of a bill introduced into the Washington House of Representatives by Secretary of State Kim Wyman that would give unaffiliated voters a voice in

presidential primaries. House Bill 1265 gives voters the option of not declaring party affiliation and would allow unaffiliated votes to qualify and be counted for

the primary. Wyman believes the bill will increase voter participation.

DITCHES AND GLITCHESOn Jan. 16, Whatcom County Sheriff’s deputies assisted Washington State Patrol troopers in a pursuit that led to a stand-off. The pursuit ended when a 51-year-old Bellingham man ditched his car and fled into his house and refused to come out. Deputies and troopers urged the man to come out but he continued to refuse. Af-ter confirming he was the only one in the house, deputies lobbed chemical muni-tions into the home. The man eventually surrendered and was taken into custody without injury. A search of his home un-covered several firearms, ammunition, and controlled substances, all of which were seized by troopers.

On Jan. 5, law enforcement officers learned a man was driving at a high rate of speed near Ferndale. A Washington State Patrol trooper and Whatcom County Sher-iff’s deputies located the 38-year-old driv-er and attempted to stop him. Instead, he continued to drive recklessly, swerving to avoid spike strips. The chase ended when the car spun out into a ditch. The driver and his passenger were taken into custody. The passenger provided a statement, say-ing that during the pursuit the driver had thrown a bag out of the window. Deputies located a bag in a ditch that contained a stolen handgun with 11 rounds of ammuni-tion, 11.6 grams of heroin, and 19 grams of methamphetamine. The driver was booked into jail on numerous charges.

On Jan. 21, Bellingham Police responded to a report of a rifle slung outside of a vehicle near Sunset Pond, and sealed off the area. Police say the rifles turned out to be BB guns and no arrests were made.

SMOKE SIGNALSOn Jan. 14, Sheriff’s deputies learned of a plan to smuggle contraband into the What-com County Jail. Deputies learned of this through nine phone calls made from an in-mate to a person outside the jail. Deputies later observed a vehicle that matched the description in the phone calls park near the Bellingham Public Library. They intercepted and interviewed the driver. They discovered the driver planned to use a line of string with a pencil attached to the end as a weight or hook to ferry a large straw full of tobacco to the inmates in outdoor recre-ation. He was was booked into jail.

On Jan. 2, an Anacortes grocery store re-ported the theft of $40 in miscellaneous items, including alcohol and condoms.

Based on a description, officers took a man into custody and the stolen items were lo-cated nearby. The man faces theft and ob-struction charges because he provided a fictitious name when officers asked him to identify himself.

YABLOOn Jan. 19, an explosive detection K9 was used to investigate a suspicious item left near a playground in Bellingham.

JUST SAYING HIOn Jan. 15, the window of a car was smashed by a rock. “Nothing reported missing,” Bellingham Police noted.

On Jan. 13, someone threw a rock through a rear window of Sunnyland Elementary School, Bellingham Police reported.

On Jan. 14, police arrested a man who threw a sizeable rock at two women out for a walk in downtown Bellingham.

TEEN TROUBLESOn Dec. 28, Blaine Police learned several juveniles were trespassing in an abandoned home. Officers contacted the group of kids, who admitted to entering the home. Police warned them about entering other peo-ple's property and the health risks associ-ated with abandoned homes. The children agreed to not do that again.

On Jan. 9, Blaine Police responded to a report of someone yelling for help. Offi-cers determined it was children playing. No further action was taken.

On Dec. 28, the parents of a child request-ed assistance with their daughter, who was saying horrible things to them and would not listen. A Blaine Police officer met with the child and had a good talk about respect-ing and obeying her parents and other peo-ple. The police officer also spoke to the par-ents and suggested they give the child some quiet time so she could calm down.

On Jan. 4, a parent reported her young child was out of control. A Blaine Police officer arrived and met with the parent and child. The police contacted the Child Protective Services social worker, work-ing with the family and advised her of the child’s behavior. The CPS worker made contact with the parent and is working on getting the child the help she needs.

On Dec. 30, Blaine Police checked on a young girl who was walking barefoot in the rain. The girl was locked out of her house by her stepfather for punishment. The girl’s mom came to the police station and picked her up. The officer spoke to the stepfather. “Charges for reckless endangerment will be forwarded to the prosecutor for review,” police reported.
