The secrecy behind the City of Oak Harbor’s decision to cut down the land-mark Garry oak tree at the post office resulted in a grievance.

The grievance was filed by a union representing Oak Harbor Public Works employees.

Teamsters’ Local No. 231 filed a grievance with Public Works Director Cathy Rosen on April 2. Rosen respond-ed last week with a denial of the griev-ance, but union officials said they are planning to appeal.

In years to come, who knows what might become of the wood-en shoes that were once a sig-

nature of Oak Harbor’s Holland Happening.

To move the inventory, Kathy Reed is open to suggestions.

When Oak Harbor’s Dutch

celebration gets underway this weekend in historic downtown for the 45th time, a familiar sight will take on an unusual appear-ance.

Why do caring people

Pre-arrange?

How many things have you

insured against in your

lifetime? You have auto

insurance. You’re a good

driver and don’t think you

need it, but the state didn’t

give you a choice. When you

bought your home, the lender

insisted that you insure it and

the contents in case of fire. The actual chances of it

catching fire are pretty slim. You have medical insurance

and you may or may not need it, but without it, you’ll

never find a doctor who will take the time to see you. We

even insure against disaster and store food, water, blankets,

flashlights and all kids of survival goods, just in case.

Oddly enough, all the things we insure against may never

happen. But, when one talks about final arrangements,

the only certainty in life, no one thinks to insure the

inevitable. It only makes sense, for so many reasons.

The benefits of Pre-arranging

! It takes the burden off your loved ones

! It allows you to put your house in order

! You can select every aspect of your funeral

now and guard against inflation

Island County Planning Director Dave Wechner speaks about “lot line” requirements in the draft regulations governing recreational marijuana businesses.

Public hearing continued to Monday, May 5By JANIS REIDStaff reporter

Marijuana growers and processors will not have to be located on a county road to be eligible for a license.

Island County commis-sioners responded to com-ments during Monday’s pub-lic hearing. A handful of resi-dents said the county road requirement would prevent them from participating in the fledgling industry.

“Most (rural) areas are on private roads, which would push them (marijuana opera-tions) into city areas,” said resident Holly Hansen.

Island County Sheriff Mark Brown has expressed to county commissioners his desire that all recreational marijuana operations be eas-ily accessible to law enforce-ment and located along coun-ty roads.

Commissioners agreed that the requirement to be on a county road would be a hardship to some and direct-ed staff to change language to allow for private road access.

However, marijuana grow-ers and processors will be required to demonstrate accessibility either through an easement or a letter

signed by all road users that it will remain open to law enforcement.

Commissioner Helen Price Johnson said this would put the “onus on the applicant” while still allowing them to participate.

County planning staff drafted ordinance C-40-14 in response to Initiative 502, the passage of which last year legalized recreational marijuana in the state of Washington.

The commissioners also adjusted the lot size require-ment after a couple of resi-dents stated that the 250-foot minimum lot line require-ment would rule out oddly-shaped parcels. After some discussion, commissioners agreed to make the require-ment an “average” of 275 feet for the minimum lot line.

Commissioner Jill Johnson pressed for a 300-foot mini-mum lot line requirement to help ensure that operations are not too close to each other.

Johnson said it’s the coun-ty’s responsibility to ensure that the industry does not negatively impact the 46 per-cent of Washington voters who did not approve I-502.

“To think that people are going to be excited to have that as a neighbor, I think, is naive,” Johnson said.

Commissioner Kelly Emerson supported the change in the lot size, but said that over-regulating

beyond the state’s require-ments is “overkill.”

“When the majority speaks, the majority speaks,” Emerson said. “We need to allow it in the fashion the vot-ers voted it in.”

Price Johnson agreed with the 300-foot requirement, as long as it was averaged. Emerson proposed 275 feet, a figure that was backed by Price Johnson.

Johnson stressed through-out the meeting her desire to protect island residents from any negative impacts associ-ated with the industry.

“This is a new industry and a new use and the newcomer is the industry,” Johnson said. “We need to look at the quality of life to existing neighbors and what kind of experience we want to give them to this industry.”

Price Johnson noted that illegal marijuana has already been happening on the island.

“Marijuana has been grown in Island County for a very long time,” Price Johnson said. “It’s just been done in a clandestine way. This is a way to bring it out of the shadows.

“If there are unforeseen issues that arise, we can address that.”

Because changes to the ordinance need to be reviewed by the public, com-missioners agreed to extend the public hearing to 10:15 a.m. Monday, May 5.

County tweaks pot rules

By JANIS REIDStaff reporter

The Island County treasurer told county commissioners this month that the backlog of unprocessed property supplements will take at least another month to complete.

“It has created some very difficult situa-tions, which is why I have as many people working on it and they are working over-time to get them done,” Treasurer Ana Maria Nunez said at a recent work session.

An audit finding last year determined that the county was backlogged on processing property tax supplements because “Island County lacked adequate internal controls to ensure timely processing of property tax adjustments.”

Nunez told county commissioners last year that the supplements would be caught up by June. But this month, Nunez said they will not be completed until July.

Nunez said her office has struggled with keeping up with the property supplements

since she started in 2005.Nunez said the county was on the verge

of catching up by 2008, but the recession forced the county to lay off employees, including one full-time employee in the trea-surer’s office, followed by another in 2009.

While her office has made good progress on the backlog, Nunez said a staff member took some unexpected leave, and that con-tributed to the delay.

Commissioner Helen Price Johnson stressed the need to get caught up as soon as possible.

“I continue to hear from people who are frustrated waiting for their supplement to be processed,” Price Johnson said. “As the real estate market has heated up, the more trouble and complications it creates.”

In early 2012, Island County commission-ers authorized a full-time employee dedi-cated to addressing the county’s backlog. And in budget talks for the 2014 year, the board authorized continuing that position to ensure the backlog is addressed.

The Independent Order of Odd Fellows Hall in Oak Harbor got a fresh look Saturday.

Volunteers from Sherwin-Williams paint store were joined by other volunteers from the community in apply-ing a fresh coat of paint to the building’s exterior. In the process, they completed some minor repair work.

This project was held in conjunction with National Painting Week, held annually by Sherwin-Williams stores.

During Painting Week, the stores offer painting ideas, tips, inspiration and more from do-it-yourself blog-gers and Sherwin-Williams employees.

It is also when thousands of Sherwin-Williams employees donate time and store prod-ucts to update and refresh local nonprofits, churches, schools and other community organizations.

David Crume, manager for the Sherwin-Williams store in Oak Harbor, organized this year’s community proj-ect. He said that corporate Sherwin-Williams leaders wanted local stores to partici-pate in a community project; for the local region, the com-pany decided to do a project

in Seattle. Crume, however, wanted to

do something in his own com-munity and chose to help the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, commonly known as IOOF, which is a global altru-istic and benevolent fraternal organization.

“I decided to do my own,” he said. “I went through and looked at probably 30 differ-ent nonprofits, and I found the IOOF.”

The goal for the Odd Fellows project was to repaint the outside and make some necessary repairs to the build-ing, Crume said.

Crume worked with IOOF members to select paint col-ors, but added the decision was ultimately up to him.

For about a week and a half before Saturday’s event, Crume said volunteers were working on repairs, including rebuilding a retaining wall used for storage. Before vol-unteers repainted the build-ing, much of the maintenance was completed.

“Saturday’s goal was just to get it all painted,” he said.

On Saturday, the 16-mem-ber work crew comprised of half Sherwin-Williams staff and half Oak Harbor volun-teers painted the IOOF hall.

According to Crume, every-thing they set out to fix was completed, except for replac-

ing the gutters. Crume said he is still missing a few parts, but that the gutters will be up by the end of the week.

Last year, a total of 425 Sherwin-Williams stores participated in community projects across the country, according to the company’s website. This year, almost 150 community projects will

be completed in April “from Seattle to Tampa,” for the National Painting Week, by roughly 1,400 Sherwin-Williams stores, according to the media contact for National Painting Week, Hillary Call.

Projects include painting historical landmarks, baseball fields, Habitat for Humanity houses, churches and schools.

Westgate Homes is moving this month to a new location, about a half mile south on State Highway 20.

The business, which sells RVs, RV parts and manufactured homes, is downsizing and com-pany leaders wanted to move to a smaller location to make their operation more effi-cient, according to General Manager Kevin Fakkema.

Many of the services that Westgate offered at its previous location are not offered anymore, including RV service and RV and manufac-tured home storage, according to Fakkema.

Westgate will contin-ue to sell RVs, RV parts, manufactured homes and “some real estate sales,” according to Fakkema.

“We’re going to focus more on the home and RV sales and not so much on all the other stuff we were doing,” Fakkema said.

The reason for the downsizing has a lot to do with the economy.

“I’m just trying to get our overhead down, and this is a good way to do it,” said Fakkema.

The plans are to com-plete the move to their new location by the end of the month and, even-tually, sell the old prop-erty.

“Part of the reason we’re doing this is so we can keep everyone still employed,” Fakkema said.

With all the “trim-ming,” he explained, Westgate was able to keep all of its employees and “didn’t have to lay anyone off.”

Westgate Homes is open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturdays and closed on Sundays.

It is now located at 33510 State Highway 20 in Oak Harbor.

For more information, call Westgate at 360-675-1366 or visit the busi-ness’ website at www.westgatehomes.com

Running the Island County Fairgrounds costs too much, and the managing Whidbey Island Fair Association wants county funding as part of a restructured lease.

In a letter sent to the county commissioners on April 9, fair association president Diane Divelbess wrote that her group could not “in good faith” renew the lease as it exists without any county support for the property. The two-year lease is set to expire in June.

“The way we are now, we are managing but without sufficient funds to manage,” Divelbess said in a phone inter-view Thursday. “Up to now, the county has given us what [it] has been able to give us.”

That reality rang true with Commissioner Helen Price Johnson. She worked with a steering committee that pre-sented a $10.12 million over-haul of the property over 10 years.

“What we found was the property has increasing chal-lenges,” she said.

“What is clear from the study is the fair association needs to focus on the fair, and that is reflected in this letter,” she added.

Island County, the owner of the 12.8-acre property on Camano Avenue in Langley, has not budgeted any main-tenance and operations fund-ing for the fairgrounds for several years. In lieu of that money, the county offered $30,000 to the nonprofit fair association set up to manage the grounds and facility. The funds could only be spent on capital improvements. But recent problems with roofing, stormwater, burst pipes and the Pole Building’s not-quite-commercial kitchen remodel

all required well more than the county’s budgeted amount.

“The fairgrounds is sort of an albatross that the county is stuck with, and I think the average public thinks there is plenty of money in the county coffers and wonders what’s the big deal,” Divelbess said.

“We’re just hoping that we can come up with some kind of an arrangement where we’re put into the county’s budgeting process.”

The association’s request to redo its lease comes on the heels of a proposal that would have completely taken it out of the landlord busi-ness. Significant opposition arose from Whidbey Island residents displeased with the reimagined property. Out of the dissent, however, came a renewed charge that the prop-erty is in some state of disre-pair and the fair association needs help. Divelbess said she has 15 applications to join the association that she was sort-ing through and she and the other fair directors hoped to garner more public support going forward.

Public support for the prop-erty’s survival was also noted by Price Johnson as a posi-tive outcome of the proposal’s opposition.

“The upside is that a lot of peo-ple are thinking about the fair-grounds,” Price Johnson said. “There’s an opportunity ahead.”

The lease itself is a hon-eypot: attractive but ensnar-ing. It allows the managing agency — the Whidbey

Island Fair Association — full use of the property, including the ability to rent out its facilities, and to keep any revenue generated from it. But it also holds the fair association responsible for the property’s and the build-ings’ upkeep. When the fair association originally signed the agreement, it thought the four-day fair would gener-ate enough money to handle small upkeep issues.

“It’s actually a good arrangement, it’s just that the buildings are old enough that we can’t rent them for what they’re worth,” Divelbess said.

“With some additional mon-ies, we can probably manage quite well to finally spruce up things and make it possible for some of the buildings, like the Pole Building, to be rentable,” she added. “It would be nice if we got some buildings really up to snuff.”

Price Johnson said that it is possible for Island County to resume active management of the property or to find a new group to run it, which would allow the fair association to solely focus on producing the fair. But the county is in the process of cutting some of its expenses, including possibly passing along stewardship of some park properties over the next few years. Any decision on the property would likely include the opinion of a new county facilities director, cur-rently a vacant position.

The interim Island County facilities director was direct-ed by the commissioners to begin looking at the county’s options and the fair associa-tion’s request.

“How it’s managed is really going to be our question,” Price Johnson said. “Is it a county employee, [or] do we enter into a relationship with another entity?”

Fair group wants regular county funding, new leaseBy MICHELLE BEAHM

Two Oak Harbor ele-mentary schools received Washington Academic Achievement Awards for 2013.

Broad View Elementary received a High Progress Award and Hillcrest Elementary received a Special Recognition Award for reading and math growth.

The High Progress award is given to Washington schools that are in the top 10 percent of academic improvement over the last three years. The Special Recognition Award is given to the schools in the top 5 percent of academic growth in read-ing and math.

“I think it is a great statement about how our kids are working hard, our teachers are making learning interesting and motivating kids to want to learn,” said Principal Joyce Swanson, “and I think it

just speaks to everybody’s commitment to making sure kids are successful.”

These awards are given based on statewide assess-ment data for the last three years, according to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction’s website. Schools are assessed using the State Board of Education Revised Achievement Index and criteria set by the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act Flexibility Waiver.

“It’s not just a flash in the pan,” said Swanson. “This kind of award is rec-ognizing us for a number of years of progress.

According to Lance Gibbon, superintendent of the Oak Harbor School District, this isn’t the first time Oak Harbor elemen-tary schools have been rec-ognized with these awards.

“Student success is our priority as a district,” Gibbon said in an email, “and the growth recog-nized in these two schools

is evidence that we’re mak-ing progress.”

But according to school leaders, the improvement is not just because of the school faculty.

“Improving student learn-ing is really a team effort,” Gibbon said. “It takes teach-ers, support staff, principals, students and parents all working together toward a common goal.”

Paula Seaman, principal of Hillcrest, said that the award was given to the whole community.

“This is such a wonder-ful place to work,” Seaman said, “and I was just so proud to be a part of this community and a part of Hillcrest.”

The schools and the district all intend to keep working towards improv-ing the chances of student success.

“Success in elementary school is a strong founda-tion for everything they’re going to do for the rest of their lives,” said Swanson.

Elementary schools awarded


During the Oak Harbor School District board meeting last week, the board adopt-ed a new secondary social studies curricu-lum, which was in the works for months.

The biggest change in the curriculum is the replacement of “modern world problems” classes with “modern global economics.”

For some staff members, this change was initially a concern because they felt modern world problems subject matter would not be covered well enough in the new curriculum.

Brett McLeod, a teacher at Oak Harbor High School who has taught modern world problems for about eight years, was among those expressing concerns.

The curriculum committee asked McLeod and fellow modern world problems teacher Mike Fisher to go over the proposal to ensure that the subject is covered.

Before seeing the proposal, McLeod felt

modern world problems was the priority, and Fisher felt modern global economics was more important.

“We looked at the curriculum, and what happened was … we saw that we could do both,” McLeod said.

The two worked together to ensure both subjects will be adequately covered.

“I think what this will allow us to do is kind of almost get the best of both worlds,” Fisher said.

Another change in this curriculum is that mandatory state history class will be taught in seventh grade rather than later.

For students who enter the school dis-trict in eighth through 10th grades, there will most likely be an online program to make up the credit, though it hasn’t been finalized. Students joining in 11th or 12th grade will get a waiver for the requirement.

The school board approved the adoption of the curriculum change, which will go into effect at the start of the next school year.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOROLF

The gall and arrogance of group is amazingEditor,

I never thought I’d be writing a Letter to the Editor about fairy tales, but Michael Monson’s April 12 letter, “Don’t Be a Chicken Little over Jet Noise,” prompts me to do so.

Monson’s a master at leaving data and evidence out of his arguments. He claims that the COER does not want the Naval Air Station to close, yet when closing it was being considered, former COER President Ken Pickard said, “There was hope when the NAS was placed on the BRAC list.”

Monson further misleads his read-ers that by saying that closing the OLF and moving the Growlers won’t result in the NAS closing. Have a look at seaforces.org and note the number and type of squadrons based at at NAS Whidbey Island. Thirteen are VAQ

squadrons who fly, or will fly, the EA-18 Growlers. Out of the kindness of his heart, Mr. Monson would leave the VP Squadrons, currently flying P3’s, in place. How many VP Squadrons are there? Four. Monson doesn’t think that moving the Growlers would result in base closure? He does live in a fairy tale.

Mr. Monson tries further to mini-mize concern about base closure, implying that there’s nothing to worry about, and calling those who do worry “Chicken Littles.” Check militaryinstal-lations.dod.mil and find that a NAS Whidbey closure would negatively impact the following people:

7,050 military personnel14,000 family members14,000 retirees350-plus reservists2,420 civilian and contract employeesThat’s a lot of “Chicken Littles.” In

addition, one must also consider the devastating effect that would have on Island businesses. Imagine losing the patronage of so many.

There’s another irony to consider

here. Undoubtedly a high percentage of COER members are anti-military types who complain bitterly about mili-tary spending. Yet they have no prob-lem with demanding that the Navy, the U.S., the taxpayer, you, pay the billions it would take to relocate the Growlers and devastate the lives of thousands.

The gall and arrogance of the COER amaze me.

ANOTHER VIEWPOINT

A single person has the power to change the future for us all. About a week ago, that person was Island County Commissioner Jill Johnson.

The Oak Harbor Republican reconsidered her earlier position and, in a surprise move, agreed to approve a partnership between the county and the Whidbey Camano Land Trust to purchase beachfront

property in Glendale.Glendale is located on South Whidbey.Island County isn’t pitching any money into the deal,

but will hold a recreation easement on the land.The decision is not an outright victory, as the prop-

erty still must be purchased, but combined with the vote of Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson, the project now has a chance.

Buying public land is controversial, especially these days.

Some argue that government must slow its feverish land purchasing and focus efforts and resources on maintaining what it already owns.

The merits of that argument are clear, especially since county government has been so strapped for cash that it has begged other public agencies or orga-nizations to take over some of its park lands.

But that doesn’t mean special opportunities should be passed over, and Glendale qualifies as a special opportunity. This tiny community was once a boom-town, a crossroad of loggers and fishermen.

The historic Glendale hotel still stands sentry over a property that served as an access — albiet privately owned — to the water.

The two properties for sale also have assets that make them especially appealing. One has a boat launch and the other a long dock.

Overwater construction isn’t cheap or easy to permit and is increasingly difficult to find.

Some argue that there are better beaches to pur-chase, ones not so isolated from the island’s population centers and transportation arteries.

But issues of access or overwater facilities aside, this is simply beachfront property and that alone makes

Glendale purchase an opportunity too good to pass up

got till it’s gone. They paved paradise and put it a parking lot.” Joni Mitchell.

The Greening Congregations of Whidbey invite you to join us 7 p.m. Friday, April 25 at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation Freeland for the film Growthbusters: Hooked on Growth.

At 7 billion and growing, with 40 percent of the planet’s surface in food production and our effluence poison-ing our land and water, it is clear that

our growth-centric system is broken. It’s not providing the happiness or

the prosperity we seek. Water shortages, hunger, peak

oil, species extinction, even increas-ing depression are all symptoms of a deeper problem — addiction to unending growth in a world that has limits.

This film goes beyond prescribing Band-Aids.

It examines the cultural barriers that prevent us from reacting rationally

to the evidence. From Las Vegas to Atlanta; Mexico City to Mumbai; the White House to the Vatican — it’s Wild Kingdom with a twist.

It looks into the psychology of denial and crowd behavior, explores our obsession with growth and our reluctance to address it while encour-aging us to examine the beliefs and behaviors we must leave behind — and the values we need to embrace — so our children can survive and thrive.

Following the film, the Whidbey Environmental Action Network will discuss their 25 Years of celebrated conservation in Island County.

The times, they are changing. As Will Rogers said, “Even if you

are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.”

Don’t just sit there. Come on out for this important event.

Gary PiazzonUUCWI Environmental Justice

Committee

One of the problems with the minimum wage debate is the name itself. If we want to ensure that we don’t hurt lower-income work-ers, we should consider total

compensation, not just wages.Case in point: Bill H. earns $15

an hour as a parking lot attendant. Lisa W. earns $12.25 an hour at a fast food restaurant.

But Lisa’s employer provides merit raises, paid vacations, health insurance, management training, education scholarships, childcare assistance and a 401k retirement plan.

Who is better off? Would it help or hurt Lisa if she lost all her benefits, but gained $2.75 an hour in wages? We need to consider that question as part of any debate about the mini-mum wage.

The truth is, raising the minimum wage is not as clear or as simple as

some would have us believe. Let’s leave aside for a moment

the fact that no city or state has ever attempted to raise its minimum wage by 60 percent. Most experts agree that the more extreme and abrupt the increase, the more economic casualties it creates — lost jobs and lost opportunities.

But as any employer knows, there is much more to employee compen-sation than wages.

According to a March, 2014 report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, private-sector employers pay an additional 30 percent on top of wages for employee benefits such as Social Security, Medicare, workers compensation insurance, unemploy-ment insurance, paid leave, health care, retirement, etc.

For example, the BLS reports that, while the average service worker makes $12.17 an hour, their benefits bring their total compensation to $16.95 per hour.

Because Washington’s current minimum wage is the highest in the nation, employer costs – and employ-ee benefits – are likely greater here.

Take Dick’s Drive-In, for example.An iconic Seattle-area institution

for 60 years, Dick’s Drive-in provides good wages and generous employee

benefits. According to Jasmine Donovan,

granddaughter of founder Dick Spady, employees start at $10.25 an hour, receive regular merit raises, health insurance, $22,000 in schol-arships over four years, child-care assistance, bonuses, paid vacations, a 401(k) retirement plan with a 50 percent employer match and paid volunteer time at local charities.

These benefits push the total com-pensation for employees of Dick’s Drive-In above the targeted $15 per hour minimum wage.

But if the company is forced to bump wages to $15 per hour, it will not be able to afford the employee benefits it currently provides. Donovan cautions, “Employees who earn higher taxable wages, but lose valuable tax-free benefits may end up worse off.”

The same is true for the employ-ees of Burgerville restaurants. Founded in the 1960s, Burgerville operates 39 restaurants from Centralia, Wash., to Albany, Ore.

Like Dick’s Drive-In, Burgerville management is focused on helping their employees succeed.

Employees who work their way into management positions get free management training, medical and

dental insurance, a 401k plan with a company match, paid vacation, child care assistance and tuition reim-bursement.

These benefits have value — value that must be considered in any dis-cussion about raising the minimum wage.

What else should that discussion include?

Donovan suggests that the mini-mum wage should increase with edu-cation and skill levels. High-school dropouts who earn a GED would get a bump in their minimum wage; high school graduates earn a higher wage. Technical or management degrees net an even higher wage.

These steps not only recognize the added value of education and skills, they provide incentives for people to achieve those goals in order to get higher pay. The skills and education they gain as a result will help them succeed throughout their lives.

Isn’t that what we really want?

it worthy of consider-ation. Whidbey is an island. There is only so much land. Growth won’t stop. Everyone wants a view.

In other words, every beach is precious.

This is not a new argument. Beach access is just as impor-tant now, as it was 50 years ago, and 50 years from now island resi-dents who can’t afford the half million dollar price tag for shoreline property will look back and thank the leaders of today for their fore-sight.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORCONTINUED FROM PAGE A6

The search for state parks funding

A task force appointed by Gov. Jay Inslee began work today on finding a better way to fund the state parks sys-tem and promote Washington’s multi-billion dollar outdoor recreation

industry.Inslee also wants the panel to come

up with ideas for getting children to spend more time recreating in the out-doors, which he hopes will help stem the spread of obesity among the state’s youngest residents.

The 17-member Washington Blue Ribbon Task Force on Parks and Outdoor Recreation is supposed to deliver its recommendations in

September.Panel members come from the

private, public and nonprofit sectors and do not receive salaries for their participation. They include representa-tives of REI, Outdoor Research, The Wilderness Society, Trust for Public Land, Sierra Club and Washington Tourism Alliance.

Connor Inslee, chief operating offi-cer of Outdoors for All Foundation and one of the governor’s three sons, is on the panel too. The group helps disabled children and adults enjoy all facets of outdoor recreation.

The panel’s toughest challenge may be coming up with a means of provid-ing sustainable funding for the cash-strapped state parks system. Inslee said if they come up with the ideas, he’s willing to expend political capital to get them through the Legislature.

“This is a very critical task because our state parks are in a very critical situation,” he told the panel at its inau-gural meeting in Olympia this morning.

“It is tragic in my view to have the most beautiful state parks naturally in the United States and the most pathetic excuse for a lack of political and finan-cial support perhaps in the United States,” he said.

Inslee also wants suggestions on how the state can attract more tourists to Washington to recreate in the outdoors.

A report issued last year by the Outdoor Industry Association found $22.5 billion is spent annually in the state on outdoor recreation.

The industry supports 226,600 jobs and generates $1.6 billion in state and local tax revenues, said the report.

Inslee knows the task force has a big order to fill.

“The state is counting on you,” he said. “My grandkids … are counting on you.”

GAME OF THE WEEK Oak Harbor plays Marysville Getchell in soccer at home at 7:30 p.m. Friday, April 25.

SPORTSWHIDBEY

By JIM WALLERSports editor

After placing third in a five-team match Friday, April 18, at the Whidbey Golf Club, the Oak Harbor High School boys golf team jumped to second in its next five-team home match Monday, April 21.

Friday’s contest was high-lighted by a strong show-ing by three Wildcats. Mac Kerfoot (81), Mason Dieter (85) and Aaron Kelley (86) had the fourth, fifth and sixth best scores out of 30 golfers to help Oak Harbor to 452 team points.

Meadowdale won the meet with 429 strokes, and Marysville Getchell finished second at 435.

After Oak Harbor, Glacier Peak carded a 459 and Everett a 489.

“With two JV guys playing, getting third wasn’t so bad,” said coach David Smith.

Tom Dale (108) and T.J. Cortez (114) filled in for two Wildcat golfers unable to compete. Steven Timm (92) rounded out the team.

“This was one of Aaron’s best rounds,” Smith said. “Mac had another good

round; he has been steady all year.”

Gage St. John of Marysville Getchell earned medalist honors with a four-over 76.

Oak Harbor and Marysville Getchell faced three different teams in Monday’s match, and this time the Wildcats placed ahead of the Chargers.

Sedro-Woolley, from the Northwest Conference, easi-ly defeated four Wesco teams with a stroke total of 417.

Oak Harbor finished at 451, just ahead of Mountlake Terrace (454) and Marysville Getchell (455). Marysville Pilchuck trailed the field at 533.

The Cubs’ Colton Taxeahl took medalist honors with a two-over 74, four shots ahead of Kerfoot.

Kerfoot shot even par through the first nine and finished the day with four birdies.

Kelley was next for the Wildcats with a 90, followed by Timm (92), Mason Dieter (93), Dale (98) and Caleb Brookshire (104).

Glacier Peak, Meadowdale and Mountlake Terrace come to the Whidbey Golf Club at 2 p.m. Tuesday, April 29, to face Oak Harbor.

Oak Harbor’s Aaron Kelley, center, is among a group of golfers studying another opponent’s putt on the second green Friday.

Showing its mental toughness, the Coupeville High School softball team came back to defeat visiting Lakewood 8-6 Friday, April 18.

The Cougars (4-4, 6-4), who defeat-ed Coupeville 9-1 earlier this spring, jumped to leads of 3-0 and 6-1 over the first two innings, but the Wolves refused to fold.

After surrendering six runs and seven hits in the first two innings, Coupeville pitcher McKayla Bailey blanked the Cougars on three hits the rest of the way.

Down 3-0 after one inning, Coupeville scored one run in its half. Maddi Roberts led off with an infield single and eventually scored when she escaped a Lakewood run down between third and home.

The Cougars added three more runs in the second and Coupeville respond-ed with two.

Singles by Haley Sherman, Emily Coulter and Bree Messner helped plate the two runs.

Coupeville still trailed 6-3 going into the bottom of the fifth when it rallied to tie it. A single by Roberts, a double by Messner and a triple by Sherman

highlighted the inning.The Wolves completed the come-

back with a two-run sixth.Coulter doubled and moved to third

on Roberts’ single. Messner followed with a hit, driving in Coulter. Bailey walked to fill the bases, and Hailey Hammer’s sacrifice fly scored Roberts.

“This game, we put everything together,” co-head coach David King said. “Pitching, defense, hitting and base running. The team came out focused and, after getting down three before we even hit and then 6-3 after two, remained focused the whole game.”

Roberts finished with three hits, two RBI and three runs; and catcher Messner was 3-for-3 with a double, three RBI and threw out a would-be base stealer. Coulter and Sherman each added two hits.

“Others throughout the line up put together good at bats,” King said.

“Defensively we played solid, made all of the routine plays and added a few ‘wow’ plays.”

Coupeville (3-6, 4-6) travels to South Whidbey (2-9, 3-9) at 4 p.m. Thursday, April 24.

PREP ROUNDUP

By JIM WALLERSports editor

Obviously, a good place to find the members of the Wednesday Women’s Golf Association is on the Gallery Golf Course.

That is, if they are not on a softball diamond. Or at a bowling alley.

The group, about 20 strong, meets each mid-week at the Gallery for a round of golf. They tee off at 2 and 2:10 p.m., and for those who have jobs, 4 and 4:50 p.m.

More tee times will be added if needed, according to Rosemary Kunow, mem-bership committee chair-woman.

The core of the group first met years ago while playing in the same soft-ball league. Most still bowl together.

In fact, the group compet-ed in a bowling tournament in Tacoma in late March and are heading to Reno for the national tournament May 17.

But Wednesday after-noons from April to September are devoted to

golf. The club formed four

years ago and shifted from Tuesdays to Wednesdays this spring.

In addition, they play is some Saturday tourna-ments for fun and “hope to host an invitational this year with women of other clubs,” said Kunow.

By meeting as a club rather than golfing indi-vidually, the commitment “forces” them to get out and exercise.

“It provides a place to play and people to play with,” Kunow said.

“You don’t have to be good to have a good time,” Vickie Burns said.

“It is so neat we met play-ing softball,” said Maria Crowell. “Then bowling and now this.”

“We welcome anybody with some golfing expe-rience,” Kunow said. “Beginning golfers should look at the Thursday after-noon Gallery offering of ladies rules and instruc-tion.”

Those interested in join-ing the group can email [email protected]

A fly fisherman casts into Pass Lake in Deception Pass State Park April 12. Pass Lake is a catch-and-release, fly-fishing only lake known for its big trout and scenic backdrop.

By RON NEWBERRYStaff reporter

It’s always the big fish that spike the most interest.

When Dave Whitmer and others with the Washington Department of Fish and

Wildlife travel to different commu-nities with truckloads of trout to unload, it’s often the jumbo-sized trout that draw the most curiosity.

Even on the ferry ride from Mukilteo to Clinton.

“It’s usually the ferry guys asking us where we’re going and if we’re bringing the triploids,” Whitmer said.

Trout fishing kicks into high gear Saturday, April 26, when anglers are allowed to cast their lines and chase freshly-stocked trout in many of the state’s lakes.

Although many waters are open year round, the fourth Saturday in April marks the tra-ditional start of trout fishing in lowland lakes and is regarded as the state’s biggest fishing day of the year, drawing hundreds of thousands of anglers.

On Whidbey Island, where salmon fishing is king, the buzz for trout might not be as audible but

the whispers are heard nonethe-less.

Especially around this time of year.

“People are already coming in and hanging out and talking about it,” said Bob Crouch, a sporting goods employee at Sebo’s hard-ware store in Bayview. “A couple people saw the state trucks coming over on the ferry dumping plant-ers. People are already psyched up for it.”

Last week, state hatchery work-ers dumped more than 8,200 trout into Deer Lake in Clinton, includ-ing 208 triploids that average about 1.5 pounds apiece.

The trout population of two Langley lakes also increased sig-nificantly from plants earlier this month — Goss Lake got 4,244 additional trout, and Lone Lake received 3,055.

Cranberry Lake, in Deception Pass State Park on North Whidbey, was stocked with 6,600 trout in March.

“My favorite is Goss Lake,” said Crouch, who’s been living and fish-ing on Whidbey since 1973. “It’s kind of quiet. No gasoline engines are allowed in it. It’s pretty clean

and it’s a deep lake.”Goss and Deer lakes are only

open to fishing for six months of the year, starting Saturday. Licensed anglers are allowed to keep five trout per day with no minimum size restrictions.

Some lakes such as Lone Lake and Pass Lake, in Deception Pass State Park, have special rules.

At Lone Lake, only selective gear is allowed and only one trout no smaller than 18 inches may be retained.

Pass Lake’s rules are even more strict. It is a catch-and-release, fly-fishing only lake where motors are prohibited.

Ron Raport of Bothell and his brother-in-law Rob Hauck of Spokane spent Saturday morning fly fishing from their float tubes on Pass Lake. Raport caught and released an 18-inch trout.

The scenic backdrop and big trout lured Raport to Pass Lake.

“It’s beautiful,” he said. “There’s something about this place that’s really cool.”

Kaber Cheney of the Oak Harbor Ace Hardware store said

most trout anglers who come to his store are headed north to lakes such as Cranberry, Campbell, Heart or Erie.

“It’s fairly popular,” he said of the area’s trout fishing.

At Sebo’s, shelves are stocked with Power Bait and artificial lures.

“If they’re trolling, some guys will use Flatfish,” Crouch said. “Occasionally, they’ll use Rooster Tails. Green color this time of year is usually pretty hot.”

State hatchery personnel dump trout into Lone Lake in Langley in March to boost the lake’s fish population in time for the state’s lowland lakes opener April 26 . Special fishing rules apply at Lone Lake, where anglers may only keep one fish per day and it must be at least 18 inches.

Thousands of trout planted in lakes in and around Whidbey for popular event

A license to fishn Adult anglers looking to

go after trout during the April 26 opener are required to have a current freshwater fish-ing license valid through March 31, 2015. Licenses cost $29.50 for adults 16 to 69 years old. Fifteen-year-olds may buy a li-cense for $8.05 and seniors 70 and older may purchase an an-nual license for $7.50. Children 14 and under are not required to have a license. Licenses may be purchased online at www.fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov or at licensed dealers such as Ace Hardware in Oak Harbor and Freeland and Sebo’s hardware store in Bayview.

Klompen, known mostly as wooden shoes from the Netherlands, will serve more than one pur-pose at Holland Happening this weekend. They will be sold as planters as well.

With roughly 100 pair in storage, and only a few sold last year, it was time to use the imagination, according to Reed, executive director of the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce.

“We have klompen com-ing out of our ears,” Reed said.

“We love them. It’s fun. They just don’t have the appeal they once did. Times have changed.”

Holland Happening, a celebration of Oak Harbor’s Dutch heritage in conjunc-tion with King’s Day, a nation-al holiday in the Netherlands, starts Friday night and won’t stop until late Sunday.

The bulk of the activity is centered around the street fair on Pioneer Way that goes from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sunday.

The biggest attraction, the grand parade, starts at

11 a.m. Saturday on Pioneer Way. The parade route trav-els along Bayshore Drive then back on to Pioneer before winding up near the Ace Hardware parking lot.

That route will be closed to traffic during the parade and a good portion of Pioneer Way will remain that way until Sunday evening.

The Maui Avenue gate to the Seaplane base of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station will be closed from 9 a.m.-1:30 p.m. Saturday to allow for safe staging of the parade. The Torpedo Road gate will be open.

The grand marshal for the parade will be Reka (Van Wieringen) Adamson.

At age 100, Adamson is believed to be Oak Harbor High School’s oldest living graduate.

She is a member of the Class of 1931.

“She’s been talking about what she’s going to wear,” said Kim Kaahanui, Reka’s granddaughter.

The parade, street fair, car-nival and entertainment on two stages are among the Holland Happening high-lights this year as well as the return of the Dutch Dinner Friday night.

On Sunday, there will even be klompen canal races.

The klompen’s popular-ity took a hit last year when shoe carver Elmer Veldheer from Holland, Mich., missed the Oak Harbor event for the first time in more than 20 years.

Decorated klompen will still be on sale, ranging from $5-$15. Klompen with plants range from $10-$20.

There is talk next year of a klompen birdhouse.

“Without a shoe carver, it lost a lot of impetus,” Reed said.

HAPPENINGCONTINUED FROM A1

The experiments ranged from which paper towel offers the best absorption rate to whether ibu-profen in the water will keep a cut flower alive longer.

Those were among the projects displayed during Crescent Harbor Elementary School’s annual sci-ence fair, held last April 15-16 in the school’s library.

Projects were entirely extracur-ricular for students in first through fourth grades, but fifth graders were required to do an experi-ment for their classes.

Participation in the fair itself was optional. However, a total of about 80 projects were submitted by students.

The fair was organized by current PTA president Kenyon Blaine.

Fifth grade teachers encour-aged participation in the fair because they had already done

the work anyway, Blaine said. Nearly all of the fifth graders

entered their projects into the fair, she added.

As a participation prize, every student who took part in the sci-ence fair received a rubber brace-let that read, “I dared to be in the science fair.” Most students also received a first, second or third place ribbon, depending on what grade they earned.

Blue ribbons were given to “A” projects, red to “B” projects and white to “C” projects.

Projects were graded on whether or not they asked a clear research question, made a specific hypothesis and clearly demon-strated their methods, results and conclusions.

Fifth grade projects were judged more strictly, according to Blaine.

“The majority of the partici-pants scored one of the ribbons,” Blaine said.

Blaine said she was pleased with the turnout for the fair, even

though there were fewer partici-pants this year than last.

“We’re really proud of our stu-dents and I think they did an awesome job,” said Blaine. “The majority of this is all done on their time, not any class time … so I”m really impressed with what they did.”

Students received suggested experiments, but were allowed to do any experiment or demonstra-tion they chose.

Fifth grader Luz Acost tested the absorbency of two brands of paper towels. Acost said she chose her project because she “thought it was awesome to do.”

Fifth grader Luis Gutierrez did an experiment to see if people could guess which of the three same-colored sodas they drank. Though required to do an experi-ment for class, he didn’t have to participate in the science fair.

“This is my first time,” he said, “so it seems like fun.”

Fourth grader River Clark did

not have to do an experiment at all but took part for fun.

“I decided to participate because, well, last year, I had a great project,” said Clark, who held a demonstration about the phases of the moon.

“I thought maybe I should con-tinue working on studies of sci-ence that are pretty cool.”

Clark’s mother, Shawna Pinder, said her son did a lot of research

online and at the library for his project.

Parents and students were invited to view the projects after school.

“We’re looking at everyone’s science project,” Pinder said. “It’s always interesting to see what everyone else does.”

The projects were left on dis-play Wednesday so teachers could bring their students to view them.

River Clark, a fourth grader at Crescent Harbor Elementary fourth grader, gives his presentation about the phases of the moon at the Science Fair.

Crescent Harbor students show their smarts during annual Science Fair

lic meeting for comment,” area resident Charlene Milliron said Monday.

“At no time were we made aware that they were accepting comment prior to this meeting.”

“Our properties, which are in a rural pastural land area, will lose their value

and their desirability. It is not the way to do business.”

“We do not want this across our road.”

Another resident, Jackie Cannizzaro, said Monday that she also learned about the proposed facility for the first time in the letter she received.

“We all live on land that is rural,” Cannizzaro said. “This is a bit of a conflict to try to make the land an income-producing property in this neighborhood.”

Sue Meinzinger, Summit Assistance Dog’s executive director, said that half of the residents notified did show up for the community meet-ing and she isn’t sure why the others did not receive their letters. Meinzinger said the letters were sent out 10 days before the meeting.

The project is still the

early phase, Meinzinger said.

Summit just launched a 90-day feasibility study for the property and has yet to apply for any kind of permit with the county.

Meinzinger said they probably won’t be able to get a pre-application meet-ing with county staff for at least a month.

Nothing is set in stone, and that the property could be ruled out during the fea-sibility study, Meinzinger said.

Meinzinger added that

she would be glad to hold additional community meet-ings as plans move forward.

A public hearing will be required as part of the conditional use permitting process.

Meinzinger said the Anacortes-based organiza-tion has been looking for a suitable training facility since starting six years ago.

The organization decid-ed to expand its search to Whidbey Island because it offers more large plots in rural areas than are avail-able in the Anacortes area.

The 17-acre property at 359 E. Henni Road would provide enough space to allow Summit to screen and allow setbacks that would decrease the impact of the facility on residents, Meinzinger said.

Despite the uncertainty of the project, it is apparent that Summit may be facing opposition from residents moving forward.

“I concur we need to have a loud voice and let Island County and Summit Dogs of Anacortes know we are not OK with this commercial facility in our pastoral home sites,” Cannizzaro said in an email sent to other Henni Road area residents.

“Having a dog kennel facility not only impacts the value of our homes but also value of undeveloped and protected lands such as each of us are stewards for.

“We need to make a plan and mobilize a loud resis-tance.”

“The represented employees should have been doing that work,” said Rich Ewing, secre-tary-treasurer for Local No. 231.

The grievance letter states that, under the collective bargaining agreement, union employees should have been scheduled to perform the work since it involved duties “regularly performed by Teamster Bargaining Unit Members.”

Instead, city officials kept the plans to chop down the tree under wraps from union members and many other city employees.

Supervisors and “lead employ-ees” in Public Works were sched-uled to assist in the tree removal on March 23.

The union asked that the city stop scheduling non-union mem-bers to perform work assigned to the union; in addition, the union demands that any affected employ-ees “be made whole for all lost wages and benefits.”

Mayor Scott Dudley said previ-ously that he decided not to notify the community ahead of time about plans to cut down the tree in order to lower the city’s potential expo-sure to litigation.

City Administrator Larry Cort said he couldn’t comment on why the plans were kept secret from union members and other city employees.

“Those who needed to know knew,” Cort said.

In her letter denying the griev-ance, Rosen wrote that city leaders’ goal was to keep the number of city staff at a minimum “in the interest of safety and effective site manage-ment.”

“Given the business conditions specific to this job,” she wrote, “the employees that were scheduled to work on this project possess unique skills that have been proven over time, skills that bargaining unit members do not generally possess.”

Taking down the tree was “a high-ly complex operation” and some-thing that the city hasn’t undertak-en in the past 20-plus years, Rosen said in her response.

Two contractors were involved in the project, as were employees from the Oak Harbor Police Department, city administration and Public Works.

The contractors provided the equipment, which included a 70-foot bucket truck, a 65-foot bucket truck,

a chipper, excavator, flatbed truck, several pickup trucks, trailers and, most importantly, a 60-ton crane.

In fact, the crane wasn’t able to handle the heft of the giant trunk, resulting in it being cut in half.

“The work that occurred during the tree removal on March 23, 2014, could not, even under the most gen-erous interpretation, be considered ‘routine,’” Rosen wrote.

Ewing said the union is in the

process of appealing.That appeal goes to Cort, as city

administrator. If denied by Cort, the matter then

could be appealed to a personnel board.

Special for Mother’s Day

it took persistence to extin-guish the flames, according to Hartin.

The firefighters’ focus, Hartin said, was on protect-ing other structures and ensuring the flames didn’t spread.

Hartin said an outbuild-ing on a neighbor’s property was a little scorched, but was saved.

He said it took firefighters about an hour and a half to

put out the fire. One crew stayed around all night as “fire watch” to monitor the scene.

Hartin and others with fire expertise spent most of Monday at the scene, trying to determine the cause. He said he was able to determine the area of the home where the conflagration started, but he’s still investigating the cause.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.
