The Citizens’ Alliance for Property Rights has appealed the dismissal of its Open Public Meetings Act lawsuit against San Juan County to the state Court of Appeals in Seattle.

CAPR, a statewide property rights organization with a chapter in San Juan County, had sought to invalidate the Critical Areas Ordinances because three of six county council members had attended a number of meetings with county employees and oth-ers to discuss various questions related to the CAO update. The original case also named three county council members as indi-vidual defendants; they were dis-missed from the case before the final order.

The notice of appeal brings the case back to life after Island County Superior Court Judge Alan Hancock in May issued a summary judgement order dis-missing the lawsuit before trial. That decision said the state open public meetings act applies to sub-committees “only if a majority or quorum of the governing body is present” - a fact that was not refuted by CAPR, though CAPR

By Scott RasmussenJournal editor

The most costly fire ever on San Juan Island took place in what might be considered the small-est of spaces — 85 feet, to be precise.

That’s the length of a luxury yacht — bow to stern — that was gutted and almost completely destroyed July 10, after flames grabbed hold of a below-deck cabin at the front end of the ves-sel, which was moored at Roche Harbor Resort marina.

Advertised for sale by the Seattle office of

Ocean Marine, a Taiwan-based manufacturer of Ocean Alexander megayachts and motoryachts, the value of the yacht was listed at $5.4 million, according to Chief Steve Marler of San Juan Island Fire Department. The loss, Marler noted, exceeds that of the fire that destroyed five businesses in downtown Friday Harbor on the afternoon of May 9, 2002, and that left a quarter-block of town smoldering in a heap of debris.

The loss from that fire — now the island’s sec-ond worst — totaled $2.5 million at the time.

“One could argue over values between then and now,” he said, “but this stands as the largest single-loss in dollar value on San Juan Island for as far as our records go back.”

San Juan County Sheriff ’s Department reported responding to these calls:

July 4: Two Seattle 20-year-olds were among several people arrested for being minors in posses-sion of alcohol after depu-ties happened upon about a dozen revelers, most of whom were under 21, drinking beer onboard a boat at Roche Harbor Resort marina.

Officers reportedly intend to issue several more criminal citations, including one for the person who fur-nished the group with beer.

July 5: Several hard blows to the head from a flash-light prompted an intruder to flee from a couple’s sleep-ing cabin following an early morning misadventure at a Friday Harbor marina.

The couple were in bed and asleep onboard their boat, moored at the time at a private marina on Warbass Way, when an unidenti-fied man reportedly tried to crawl into their bed at about 2 a.m.

n A heated argument and an abrupt stop in the middle of the road led to the arrest of a San Juan Island woman for DUI, and the arrest of

her boyfriend for disorder-ly conduct, obstructing an officer and resisting arrest.

The 32-year-old man, reportedly intoxicated, was apprehended for try-ing to intervene as officers were leading his girlfriend through a field sobriety test.

The 32-year-old woman drew attention of a deputy by stopping in the middle of Tucker Avenue at about 11 p.m., after which she report-edly ordered her boyfriend out of the car and tossed his backpack into the bushes.

n A mid-morning single-car collision and confronta-tion with an off-duty officer, and two blasts from a Taser, prompted authorities to air-lift a San Juan Island man to a mainland hospital for evaluation and treatment.

An altercation ensued when the 50-year-old, reportedly injured after crashing his pickup in the 3600 block of Roche Harbor Road at about 9 a.m., tried to drive away from the scene. The altercation reportedly continued when an on-duty officer arrived as well.

n A clash between a young couple and acci-dental 911 call prompted the arrest of an 18-year-

old Friday Harbor girl for damaging the interior of her boyfriend’s car and an alcohol-related offense.

Her 23-year-old beau, who tried to intervene both at the scene and later at the Sheriff ’s office, was arrested for obstructing an officer and furnishing alcohol to a minor. The two were parked in the bowling alley parking lot when officers, respond-ing to a 911 call, arrived at the scene at about 1:30 a.m.

July 6: A 33-year-old man accused of shoplifting $36 worth of groceries and alcohol from Orcas Island’s Island Market faces more serious charges for alleged-ly brandishing a knife and threatening an employee who tried to detain him.

The man, reportedly homeless, was taken into custody after officers found him hiding in the brush at nearby Crescent Beach. He reportedly again threatened the employee while in cus-tody.

n Excessive speed and erratic driving prompted the arrest of a San Juan Island woman for DUI fol-lowing a late-night traffic stop on Guard Street.

The 51-year-old, travel-ing with a 9-year-old girl in the backseat, reportedly was traveling 34 mph in a 25 mph zone and drifting over the center line at the time.

n A bag containing $7,400 in computer equipment and work-related information vanished from the car of a Kirkland man who left his vehicle parked overnight in Eastsound.

The location of where the car was parked or whether it was locked at the time were not listed in the incident report.

A 21-year-old San Juan Island man was ordered to serve an “exceptional” prison term of three years and four months for rape of a 15-year-old girl with whom he once had an ongoing sexual relationship.

On June 27, Kristian K. Sakstrup was sen-tenced in San Juan County Superior Court to 40 months in prison and ordered to pay $1,269 in fines and fees. The sentence was handed down by Judge Don Eaton roughly six months after the 21-year-old pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree rape of a child, a Class A felony that carries maximum penalties of life in prison, a $50,000 fine, or both.

The sentence is considered “exceptional” because it falls below the standard range of sen-tencing set by the state — 78-102 months — for that particular felony crime.

Sakstrup was charged a year ago in May with

two counts of second-degree rape of a child, one count of third-degree rape of a child, one count of third-degree rape and violation of a restraining order in the aftermath of alleged sexual assault. Prosecutors recommended a prison term at the low end of the state sentencing standard, but not below.

According to court documents, Sakstrup first had sex with the girl following a chance encoun-ter at the Friday Harbor apartment of a mutual friend. He was 18, and she was 13 and intending to run away from home, at the time. The two

began dating about two years later and developed an intimate relationship that abruptly ended eight months later in charges of rape. The girl was granted a restraining order following the assault.

In support of a sentence below the state stan-dard, Eaton, according to court documents, noted that Sakstrup was only 18 at the time of the first sexual encounter with the girl, that she had been — to a significant degree — a willing partner, and that he had been raised in a house-hold where age-sex boundaries were blurred and lacked an understanding about consequences of sex with a 13-year-old.

After fulfilling the prison term, he will be required to register as a sex offender and prohib-ited from contacting the girl for the remainder of her life.

After seven years as program coordinator and operations manager, Susan Matthews has a new role at the San Juan Island Community Foundation — executive director.

Matthews’ appointment as the Community Foundation’s first-ever executive director was announced July 12 by the foundation board of directors. As executive director, she will take a leadership role in all aspects of the foun-dation operations and, together with the board of directors, an all-volunteer 13-person panel, will expand the array of services the foundation provides to its donors and to local non-profit groups.

“My heart and soul has been in the work of the Community Foundation since the day I arrived here on the island almost seven years ago,” Matthews said. “It is an honor and a privilege to be able to continue that work on the community’s behalf.”

A former 15-year veteran of the broadcasting industry, Matthews moved from Portland, Ore. to San Juan Island in 2007 along with husband Stan, communications manager

for San Juan County. She was the foundation’s first-ever paid staff person when took on the program coordinator position nearly seven years ago.

Founded in 1994, the foundation has distributed $3 mil-lion to more than 100 local non-profits over the past 10 years.

In addition to its support of local non-profits, the foun-dation has channeled scholarships on behalf of 75 local students to more than 30 educational institutions and, via its hospital steering committee, raised $10.5 million in donations for construction of Peace Island Medical Center, which opened in November, 2012.

“We have seen unprecedented growth over the last ten years in both the level of community need and in the Community Foundation’s ability to match our generous local donors to those critical opportunities,” said Charles Anderson, chairman of the board of directors. “We take great care to help many of our local nonprofits adopt a busi-ness planning approach to their projects, and to be able to reflect those methods in our reports to donors.”

of the front door of her Hemlock Lane home in mid-afternoon and bit a passerby on the leg.

The 58-year-old, who had reportedly been out for a walk but left the front door ajar when she returned, received a warning letter a year earlier for allowing the dog to roam the neighbor-hood.

July 8: A Lopez Island man is the prime suspect in the theft of multiple credit and Social Security cards following investigation of a pile of litter in the 300 block

of Lopez Road. The 54-year-old report-

edly was driving a vehicle with a stolen license plate attached when deputies located the Volkswagon van, which was caught on a surveillance camera near the pile of litter.

July 9: Someone charged nearly $1,400 on a stolen credit card almost immedi-ately after three purses dis-appeared from an employee cloak room at Orcas Island’s Doe Bay Resort.

A total of $1,390 in charges were amassed on a missing credit card one hour after the purses dis-appeared. Credit accounts

associated with each miss-ing purse reportedly have been closed.

July 11: Two San Juan Island men were arrested for robbery following a late-night home invasion at a Friday Harbor apartment complex.

The two men, 26 and 23, were wearing masks when they forced their way into the apartment at about 11:30 p.m., demanded belong-ings and then assaulted the occupants. They report-edly were recognized in the altercation, fled the scene and arrested the following day.

The route is set.And now, the bulk of the money

needed for the realignment of the only paved road leading to and from the south end of San Juan Island is in the bag as well.

Lee Taylor, superintendent of San Juan Island National Historical Park, said she was recently notified that the Federal Lands Access Program had earmarked up to $5.5 million in federal funds for the realignment and

re con -s t r u c -tion of a por-tion of

Cattle Point Road. “This is fantastic news, as neither

the county staff nor I had a good plan B if this funding source didn’t come through,” Taylor noted.

The federal program is a source of funding specifically intended for local governments that have transportation projects on federal land, such as a national park. Erosion claims about 1-2 inches a year off the bluff on which Cattle Point Road winds along NPS property, and a smaller segment of state DNR land.

The federal funds will cover more than 80 percent of the $6 million-plus project. The county is expected to

finance the remainder. Congressman Rick Larsen (D-Everett) championed the project for nearly a decade.

“This is a big win over a decade in the making,” Larsen said.

Taylor said the date when the money will be available has yet to be deter-mined. Federal officials must craft funding agreements with the state and with the county before federal funds are available.

San Juan County engineer Rachel Dietzman said $350,000 is allocated for the project's design and engineer-ing this year, and that the project should be "shovel ready" by mid-2014 if all the pieces fall into place.

Federal funds earmarked for fix of Cattle Point Road

of the fire also stands as a record-setter. Jackie Wolf of Islands Oil Spill Association said its crew collected 247 large bags of fuel-laden sorbent pads and oil-laden debris during a 28-hour shift at the fire scene. Capt. Deb Fritz of Towline Marine noted its crew and others at the scene filled another 60 bags with debris and pads saturated with oil and fuel over the next two days.

“It’s the biggest recovery we’ve ever done,” Wolf said, “by a long shot.”

Unoccupied when the fire broke out at about 10 a.m., the yacht was believed to have been carrying 1,600 gallons of diesel in its fuel tanks and another 60-80 gallons of hydrau-lic oil and motor oil in its engine compartment as well. The cause of the fire has yet to be determined. A U.S. Coast Guard detachment was deployed at the scene, as were state pollution prevention officials.

Marler said the location of the fire and its intensity, and the fact that the yacht had been tied-off to the dock at the rear, all contributed to the difficulty of battling the blaze. He said the department took an “extraordinary” step of sending fire fighters onto a burning boat in the

early stages of combating the fire, but that they had to retreat and back out as the flames and intensity of the fire swelled.

“Anytime you’ve got a boat fire it’s going to be a real circuitous route to get to it,” he said. “By policy we don’t go aboard a burning boat, we don’t train for that, but it seemed reasonable given the risks versus potential rewards early on.”

Tapping into the saltwater at the marina, the Towline Marine crew initially battled the blaze, and joined Roche Harbor employees in moving nearby boats out of the fire zone. Resort employees strung an 800-foot spill-prevention boom around the slip where the yacht was moored as a precaution that proved pivotal in containing the fuel leak.

Firefighters arrived at the scene at about 10:15, fol-lowed by the Fire Boat Confidence about 45 minutes later. Still, the fire continued to rage.

Five hours later, at about 3:10 p.m., it finally fizzled out as the bow of the boat dropped below the waterline. What remained of the yacht sank at about 6 p.m.

Later that night, divers drained roughly 800 gallons of fuel from the wreckage. Another 400 gallons were pumped out of the yacht after a crane, which arrived on scene late Thursday, hoisted the hull — intact — out of the water.

The hull, along with the charred remains above, was towed Sunday from Roche Harbor to a boatyard in Bellingham.

While both the fire and the cleanup stand as unsur-passed, Marler is equally impressed by the sturdiness of the ship, and that its hull remained in one piece even after a five-hour fire gutted its interior.

“I’m sure it’s not the kind of publicity that the company would want,” he said. “but that boat just didn’t want to go down.”

disagreed with the legal conclusion.

Hancock was named to hear the case after CAPR

filed a motion saying that San Juan County Superior Court Judge Donald Eaton should recuse himself as an elected official of the coun-ty, which he did.

A three-judge panel of the Court of Appeals will hear the appeal, but paperwork and procedural filings will occupy five or six months before oral arguments are scheduled, accord-ing to Dennis Reynolds of

Bainbridge Island, the land use attorney representing CAPR.

San Juan County Prosecuting Attorney Randy Gaylord thinks Hancock’s decision is both procedurally and substantively sound, and he’s uncertain what relief could be accorded CAPR at this stage because only the Growth Management Hearings Board, which is presently considering the CAO appeals, has authority to invalidate or change the ordinances.

CAPR attorney Reynolds, however, says that the appeals court has a variety of options available to it, including returning the case to Judge Hancock for fur-ther proceedings or decid-ing the case itself.

Both attorneys agree that the case probably won’t be decided until sometime in 2014, although the appeals court can decide the case on the basis of pleading and briefs filed by the par-ties.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Answers to today's puzzle on page 11

Alan Robert Lichter passed away on July 6, 2013. Son of Harry and Rose Lichter, he was born and raised in

the area of the Boston docks, and worked in his father’s war surplus store, eventually running it himself.

His childhood revolved around his Jewish education, work and family; after the death of his father when he was a teenager, he became the breadwinner of the household.

As a young man, Alan joined the Merchant Marine (a lifetime appointment) and worked as a ship’s chandler. His army service was at Fort Lewis, Wash., during which he met his first wife Ellie Silverstone.

He became a vocational counselor at Seattle’s Jewish Family and Child Services; because he spoke several languages, including Russian, German, Hebrew and Yiddish. He used his skills to counsel European refugees who found themselves in Seattle after WWII.

In the 1960s he became the education director at Temple De Hirsh Sinai. In his thirties he earned a Ph.D. at U.W. He moved to Lawrence, Kansas and became a tenured profes-sor of English, children’s literature and poetry writing.

Nearly every summer he traveled in Europe; a year as a Fulbright Scholar was spent in Gdansk, Poland, where he was a first-hand witness to the historic Solidarity revolu-tionary movement.

After retiring from the academic life at 62, he moved to Orcas Island. He had begun going there in 1957, and considered the island his true home. He became a full-time resident in 1993, and it was on Orcas that he met and mar-ried his second wife Kate Agape.

His “retirement” was anything but retired. During the course of the next 20 years, he dove into

myriad interests and activities. He was a consummate out-doorsman and runner, with an interest in martial arts and a brown belt in karate. He continued to travel in Europe and Asia. He earned his pilot’s license, owned his own plane and

did Mercy Flights for people needing emergency transpor-tation to the mainland.

He served several years as a park steward at Moran State Park. He created San Juan County’s Veteran’s Advisory Board, and sat as chairman of Orcas’ library board. He also served a four-year term as commissioner and councilman for San Juan County.

He will be missed in so many ways… perhaps most of all for his ever present sense of humor and vast collection of intentionally terrible puns.

Alan is survived by his wife Kate; his three children, Michelle, Eric and Howard; his two grandsons, Eli and Noah; and his brother Paul.

The family asks, in lieu of flowers, that any remembranc-es be made in Alan’s name to the Orcas Library, 500 Rose St., Eastsound, WA 98245. Arrangements are in the care of Evans Funeral Chapel and Crematory, Anacortes, Wash. and the San Juan Islands.

Reunited with my Raleigh: thanks

I was camping on a friend’s private property south of Roche on Mosquito Pass. I left my bike on the ground, safely I thought, the spot is so remote.

My bike, a blue Raleigh I’ve owned for 30 years, was stolen. I posted signs every-where and told everybody I saw about my bike, and I have good news.

My bike was returned three days later, not to my spot, but to my friend’s car-port. Thanks to community for getting the word out.

Many to thank for Fair premium book

The San Juan Island Garden Club again is pleased to announce the publication of the hardcopy

version of the 2013 San Juan County Fair Exhibitor’s Guide & Premium Book again this year.

This booklet is dedicated to Edith Dickinson, who has been a stalwart garden-er for many years and an inspiration to anyone who has passed her garden or orchards in the past years.

The booklet will be avail-able in public libraries and senior centers on San Juan, Lopez Shaw, Waldron, and Orcas islands very soon. Numerous locations in Friday Harbor (including the Farmers’ Market) and the Roche Harbor Market will have copies for those who are interested.

The San Juan Island Garden Club sincerely thanks all of the extremely generous businesses, orga-nizations, service clubs, and individuals in the commu-nity who make the publica-tion of this hardcopy ver-sion of the booklet possible.

It fulfills a need again for those who wish to submit entries in the fair, and who may not have access to the online version of the book-

let or who choose not to make their entries in that manner.

This is a heartfelt thank you from the San Juan Island Garden Club. Thank you to a very generous com-munity and the advertis-ers and contributors who helped make the 2013 ver-sion of the booklet happen.

We look forward to see-ing you at the fair from Aug 14 - 17, 2013. What an exciting time.

Grateful for your heartfelt tributes

We’ve lost our much loved husband, father, and grandfather, Kip Roberts, who passed away on June 26.

The response from all of you wonderful folks who sent cards, flowers, food, and messages to our fam-ily during our very dif-ficult and sad time is so

appreciated. I only wish that Kip could read and hear all the heartfelt and fond memories written and said, remembering him as a man who touched many of your lives as a teacher, coach, friend and family member.

Thanks to many that helped him through his medical issues, especially Dr. Wingren and staff, who

were special to him.Saying “thank you” to

the paramedics of S.J. EMS doesn’t even begin to express our appreciation. They gave us that sense of relief when they walked through our door. You are the best.

I know I’ve forgotten someone and if I have please forgive me.

We will be having a bar-becue/potluck sometime in early Fall in Kip’s memo-ry, welcoming all who can attend. He leaves a legacy of love through his children, grandchildren and genera-tions to come. We will miss him forever.

Charles Heberle Ludwig, 93, died on June 16, 2013, at his son’s home in Seattle, Wash.

Chuck was the second child born to Edward Roy Ludwig and Mary Harriet Gable of Minneapolis, Minn. He gradu-ated from Macalester College in St. Paul, Minn., (class of 1942) and became a conscientious objector during WWII.

Chuck was sent to join other COs in the Pacific Northwest, where he planted trees and worked in the mental hospital at Steilacoom. It was during this time that he met and subsequently married Helen Cleveland.

Helen and Chuck, with children Steve and Meredith in tow, moved to Waldron Island in 1949.

In the early ‘50s, Chuck began work on a house for the family, and their original abode, a drafty army tent, was

soon abandoned in favor of the comfy new log home. Chuck and Helen parted ways later that decade, and

Chuck remarried Mildred Holstein Campbell. He obtained a Ph.D in organic chemistry from the University

of Washington and landed a job as a research chemist at the pulp mill in Bellingham. Chuck worked at Georgia Pacific for many years, while Mildred taught at Lowell School.

The now-composite family (Dave, Dorn, Steve and Merry) lived on south Garden Street. Upon retiring, Mildred and Chuck moved back to Waldron.

After Mildred’s death, Chuck married a third time, to Elizabeth Haan, acquiring five more grown stepchildren. He and Betty divided their time between Waldron and her home in Chicago City, Minn. Betty died in August, 2012.

Chuck is survived by Stephen Ludwig and Meredith Kurose of Seattle; Dorn Campbell of Port Townsend; Heidi, Peter, Wendy and Chris Haan of Minneapolis; Heather Wortman of Albuquerque; and numerous grand-children and great grandchildren.

Please feel welcome to attend a “burial” of Chuck’s ashes Saturday, July 27, 1:30 p.m., at the Waldron Island cemetery.

The following day (Sunday), we will be serving Chuck’s favorite recipe at a pancake breakfast (9-11 a.m., Waldron Island School) and displaying photos of his long and varied life.

There will also be a memorial service in Seattle, Saturday, Aug. 24, at 2 p.m., at University Friends Meetinghouse.

For more information, contact Steve Ludwig (206) 551-5311, or steverludwig@gmail.com, or Meredith Kurose (206) 320-7079, or mkurose@seattleschools.org.

Editorial

A ‘Walk’ to rememberOn July 27, Relay for Life once again takes

to the track at Friday Harbor High School to raise critical funding for the fight

against cancer and to honor survivors and vic-tims of the disease.

And, once again, the Journal hopes that you will join dozens of your fellow islanders in walk-ing, running or just cheering on the community teams that come together to “go the extra mile” as part of the American Cancer Society’s annual nationwide fundraiser.

From the inspiring opening ceremony on Saturday evening to the hope-filled closing ceremo-nies on Sunday morning, you will have the oppor-tunity to honor and support cancer survivors, remember those lost to cancer, and raise funds and awareness to help end cancer forever.

Especially the “first lap,” when survivors and their loved ones parade around the track to show us all what, and who, this is all about. It’s about all of those who have faced this frightening disease, lived with it and died with it - and its about you, who have helped in the past and continue to give in the present.

Then, the Luminaria Ceremony, just after dark, lights up the track and casts a warm glow of remembrance for past lives lost and future lives saved because of the generosity and kindness of the hundreds of islanders like you who work and con-tribute to help their neighbors, their grandchildren and themselves.

If you’ve been affected by cancer in any way, being part of the Relay event empowers you to make a dif-ference and fight back. If you have not been affected by cancer, maybe joining your neighbors in being part of Relay for Life can be an unspoken thank-you for your good fortune and a material thank-you to the American Cancer Society and thousands of vol-unteers nationwide who have dedicated themselves to helping others - and helping you.

Join friends and neighbors like Islanders’ Bank, Mike Scott of Herb’s, Cathy Tochluk of Soroptimists and Mike Hamlette of the San Juan Island School District to make this the best and most successful Relay for Life ever!

To join a team, call Mike Scott at 360-317-5927. To volunteer to help, call Amy Campbell at 425-791-4203 or e-mail amy.campbell@cancer.org.

Give. And you shall receive.

PUBLIC MEETINGS

By Ingrid GabrielClerk to the Council

Here in the San Juan County Council office, we have long recognized that you, the public, may not be as informed on the day-to-day activities of your

elected legislative government as we would like.The media may follow the larger news stories and blog-

gers may comment on topics of individual interest, but much of what happens here at “Council Central” may not be obviously accessible.

The Council hopes to improve the flow of information by posting a regular update, which will include the highlights of recent meetings, advisory committee reports and items of general interest.

Ideally, I will be able to post a C3 at least twice a month. This is a work-in-progress and I welcome your feedback and suggestions for content (ingridg@sanjuanco.com).

Forward, then.The week of June 23 started off with a council and

department head (both elected and appointed) workshop on Tuesday, June 25. The all-day meeting and working lunch took place at the fairgrounds and was a chance for Interim County Manager Bob Jean to introduce the council and department directors to the new County Manager, Mike Thomas. Bob also wanted to pass along the 2013 Master Work Plan and update Mike on the status of each item, including such goals as follow-up on the Community Conversations and the Six-Year Capital Improvement Plan.

Additionally, the department heads identified their indi-vidual major goals, priorities and work plans. Auditor Milene Henley suggested a format for the 2014 budget, departmental office hours were reviewed, and Bob led a discussion about the ground rules for council and depart-mental interaction.

On Thursday, June 27 the council had a brief meeting in the hearing room to discuss the solid waste transition and then adjourned for a county employee picnic on the court house lawn. Local AFSCME 1849 provided the grill foods and drinks, while managers contributed the pot-luck items. Naturally, it rained.

The picnic was an opportunity for the council to thank Bob Jean for his extraordinary service as county adminis-trator pro tempore and interim county manager. What was supposed to be a brief posting when he was contracted in May of 2012, became a job that lasted over a year.

The council also welcomed Mike Thomas and the picnic gave him chance to meet many of the employees who work outside of the county building “complex.” With a three-

member full-time council, the pace and responsibili-ties for individual council members have shifted into a higher gear.

The council recognized the need for more time to meet with county manager. The typical Tuesday meet-ing is too busy to attend to administrative matters and transact routine busi-ness. The council’s Rules of Procedure already allow for

a regular meting on Mondays (either on a regular schedule or

on an “as needed” basis).*Therefore, the council had its first Monday administra-

tive meeting on July 1 with the county manager, the clerk (me) and two members of the public. At the hour-long meeting, District 2 Councilman Rick Hughes asked if future administrative meetings could be live-streamed from the Legislative Hearing Room.

We agreed to live-stream the meetings going forward.The council traveled to Lopez Island for the Tuesday,

July 2 meeting. At the meeting, members of the Friends of Lopez Island Pool presented an update on the status of constructing a public swimming pool on Lopez Island. The council accepted the conservation easement deeds for the Geiling parcels on Lopez Island for the Land Bank, and voted to reduce the speed limit on the Ben Nevis Loop (Shaw Island) to 25 miles per hour. The Lopez Solid Waste Disposal District Board convened and gave the council an update.

After the meeting adjourned, the council took a tour of Odlin Park with Parks and Fair Director Dona Wuthnow.

On Monday, July 8th the council held its second admin-istrative meeting. The meeting was live-streamed and the video is available for playback at http://sanjuanco.com/council/video.aspx.

In addition to meetings, each council member serves as either the chair or a liaison to many advisory commit-tees and boards, both locally and out-of-the county (state, regional, international, etc.). The schedule is complex and we are working on a way to integrate the calendar so you can play “Where’s Jamie, Bob and Rick?” right along with us.

Our next meetings are on Monday, July 15 and Tuesday, July 16. Both are in the hearing room and will be live streamed. I look forward to your comments and suggestions.

(*Notices or agendas or agendas are not legally required for a regularly scheduled meeting, however the Prosecuting Attorney suggested that I send them out to inform the public and main-tain transparency. The public is welcome to attend the Monday meetings.)

that listing, federal law requires protection of criti-cal habitat. Studies have shown that species with protected critical habitat are twice as likely to be recov-ering as species without. The CBD lawsuit targets the agency’s failure to designate critical habitat for rockfish.

“Every single fish matters in keeping these rockfish from going extinct,” said CBD attorney Catherine Kilduff. “Some rockfish can live to be 100 years old, so wiping out Puget Sound rockfish is like clear-cutting an old-growth forest.”

Under state fishing rules,

no fishing is allowed for rockfish in marine area 7, which includes all of San Juan County, or in most other Puget Sound marine areas. Only coastal areas and the western end of the Straits of Juan de Fuca have open rockfish fishing sea-sons, many of which include one or two fish limits and “keep the first fish caught” rules.

“These fish used to be common on Puget Sound’s steep underwater walls, but now they’re so rare they may not be able to find mates,” said Kilduff. “The worst part is that many rockfish now die by accident, caught incidentally in other fisher-ies or by ‘ghost’ gear — lost commercial fishing nets and

commercial and recreation-al crab pots that are littering Puget Sound.”

According to a press release, the Center for Biological Diversity has more than 500,000 mem-

bers nationwide dedicated to the protection of endan-gered species and wild plac-es. For more information, go to www.biologicaldiver-sity.org and wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/regulations.

Friday Harbor’s Johannes Krieger is the 2013 recipient of the Good Village Steward Award.

The San Juan Islands Stewardship Network presented Krieger, owner of Crystal Seas Kayaking and a member of the county Marine Resources Committee, with its coveted “Finee” award July 9 for spearheading the effort to create a demonstration rain garden in the commercial core of Friday Harbor. Installed in summer 2011, the rain garden is situated at the intersection of First and Spring streets, on the corner outside of Herb’s Tavern.

“I saw this as an opportunity to get some essentially free outside money to bring jobs and work to our community during a period of time when we really needed it,” Krieger said. “Additionally, it would reduce the amount of pollutants going into our marine waters.”

Financed by a grant from the state Department of Ecology, the rain garden was designed, installed and plant-ed through a partnership of the MRC and the Town of Friday Harbor. They hired local contractors, excavators, landscapers and engineers to turn the concept into a reality. By design, the garden is intended to help capture and filter storm water run-off before it drains into the harbor.

One rain garden at a single intersection may not cure the town’s run-off woes by itself, but it may demonstrate whether such an approach, applied on a larger scale, can reduce the concentration of pollutants in storm water to a significant degree. The town tests water samples collected every couple of weeks to monitor the composition its storm water run-off. And, town Administrator Duncan Wilson said the town takes seriously its responsibility to prevent pollutants from entering the harbor.

“While the town operates in an urbanized environment, that is not an excuse for failure to attend to the waters and the marine life that surround us,” Wilson said. “We need to find a harmonious balance between the activities of people and business, while preserving the pristine waters that make the San Juan Islands so special.”

Sixteen shows in 20 days, and with first-ever performances in far-flung venues of northern California, too.

Chico, Mendocino, Redding, Sacramento, and coming off her biggest tour ever this past spring as well; 24 shows in 30 days. So what keeps Seattle’s “First Lady” of Flamenco in the groove and on the move?

“Sometimes I do get a little worried wheth-er people will show up,” Flamenco ambassador Savannah Fuentes said. “But then when you do it, perform, and you have these wonderful moments with people you don’t know while you’re sharing the art form that you love, it makes it all worth-while.”

Following on high-stepping heels of last spring’s performance in Friday Harbor, in April, Fuentes and fellow Flamenco performers — singer Jesus Montoya and guitarist Bobby de Sofia — are back to light up the Grange Hall with another sure-fire soul-snatching show.

The curtain goes up Friday, at 8 p.m. Cautionary note; seating is limited with room capacity of 100. Tickets are available at www.brownpapertickets.com, or at the door, if any are left.

Fuentes and company embarked

on the summer tour, entitled “Girsoles” (sunflowers), earlier in the month. Along with Friday Harbor, the troupe has performances slated on Lopez and on Orcas as well, before heading south to the northern reaches of the Golden State.

Inspired not only by a recent trip to Vancouver, B.C., to study the art of Flamenco with Joaquin Grilo, “my favorite dancer in the whole world”, Fuentes also looks forward to the cozy confines of Grange. There’s something exhilarating about being up close and per-sonal with an audience.

“The smaller intimate venues are really nice,” she said. “There’s a Grange on Vashon where they have something like 70-100 seats.”

Although the most familiar qualities of Flamenco for many may be in the dances and in the guitar, Fuentes maintains that the heart and soul of Flamenco has always been, and remains, in the song, and in the singer. It’s what gives any performance its character and its personality.

“It’s is like the fuel we run on,” she said. “The singing really is the soul of the art form. It’s what expresses the emotion.”

Fuentes, who also works the promotional and booking end of group’s tours, said she feels revived, re-energized and relaxed for this summer’s tour.

“I just studied and I feel inspired,” she said. “I feel like it’s going to be a really good show.”

After three Top 20 finishes in contests sponsored online by Talenthouse.com, Friday Harbor artist and illustrator Aaron D’Errico is no stranger to causing a stir over the internet.

But having his life and his art featured in a television news segment, well, that’s a different story altogether. It’s been catching people’s attention, D’Errico said.

“It was a whole new experience for me,” he said. “People have been reacting to it a lot. They’ve played (the interview) four times so far. It’s nice concise way for people to know my story, my art and what I’m doing.”

And what might that be? This time with aid of talenthouse.com, D’Errico is spon-

soring a contest of his own. He is in search of a designer to help illustrate a 22-page comic book featuring a soccer-star hero, Ammon, a character created by D’Errico several years ago, and with the goal of having that comic book published sometime in the near future.

D’Errico has high praise for Aaron Levine and crew at Q13 Fox Network’s Q it Up Sports for telling his story so succinctly. The son of former Seattle Sounders soccer star David D’Errico, Aaron, like his comic book hero, Ammon, keep an eye on the prize and ambitions moving forward despite a life-long struggle with cerebral palsy.

While his dream of being a soccer star were dashed early on, his goal of publishing a comic book remains well on its way. He credits friend and mentor, and radio legend, Pat

O’Day, a former part-owner of the Sounders expansion team, with helping him to pursue his goal. O’Day also co-starred in the Q it Up Sports feature.

If all goes well, D’Errico said that he and the winner of his contest could wind up being sponsored by Adidas Eyewear. Don’t bet against it.
