Island County is considering approving rules that would allow the use of golf carts on rural county roads.

County rolls out golf cart rules Commissioners to hold public hearing

By JUSTIN BURNETTSouth Whidbey Record

Island County may soon join the ranks of communities across the state that allow golf carts on public roads.

A majority of Island County commissioners agreed this week to move forward with a public hearing on draft regulations that would provide a framework for com-munities to establish golf-cart zones in rural areas. The meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. Monday, Nov. 24, in the Commissioners Hearing Room in Coupeville.

As of now, Commissioner Helen Price Johnson and Commissioner Aubrey Vaughan have both voiced sup-port for the proposal, while Commissioner Jill Johnson is undecided.

“We are hopeful that will remain the status quo,” said Tom Cahill, a Beverly Beach resident and one of about 121 people who have petitioned the board to adopt such rules.

The Beverly Beach community has worked on the pro-

posal for more than four years, an effort that resulted in the passage of key legislation in Olympia and paved the way for the adoption of similar rules in Langley, Coupeville and a handful of other municipalities across Washington.

According to Cahill, the community effort began with one resident. The man was battling cancer and used a golf cart to get to community functions. It was easier and more comfortable than trying to get into his SUV, Cahill said. The public functions were doing him good, but the habit was interrupted when a sheriff’s deputy arrived and warned that golf carts are not legally allowed on public roads.

“Some of us in the community decided that just didn’t make sense,” Cahill said.

Over the next four years, former state senator Mary Margaret Haugen passed a bill in 2010 that allowed coun-ties and cities to adopt regulations for their use. While

Jacks makes comeback in latest ballot countBy JESSIE STENSLAND

The Island County commis-sioner race will likely require a recount.

If that happens, appointed Commissioner Aubrey Vaughan will get to spend a little extra time on the board.

Rick Hannold, a North Whidbey

Republican, still has a lead after the latest count, but Democratic challenger Karla Jacks, a Camano Island resident, closed the gap to 134 votes in Thursday’s count.

Hannold has 14,770 votes and Jacks has 14,636. That’s a differ-ence of just 0.46 percent.

Hannold was ahead by 301 votes on election night and increased his lead to 416 votes on the Wednesday

count of ballots.Michele Reagan, elections

supervisor at the county’s Auditor’s Office, explained that the office received ballots from Camano Island last, which gave Jacks a last-minute bump.

“When races are this close, every vote really does count,” she

Toast to Langley official runs afoul of state, city rules

Fire budget includes raises, new station work

By JUSTIN BURNETT

South Whidbey Record

A bubbly bid farewell to a Langley employee at City Hall this week may be remembered more as an embarrassing blunder than a warm goodbye.

The city council par-took in a Champagne toast to Jeff Arango, Langley’s departing planning chief, during its regular meeting Monday, and in so doing violated both state law and city policy, according to Police Chief Dave Marks.

“I’m not sure who thought it would be a good idea to serve an alcoholic beverage at a council meet-ing, but it’s illegal to con-sume alcohol in public and, per city policy, staff are not allowed to consume alcohol on the job,” wrote Marks, in a Wednesday email to Mayor Fred McCarthy.

Incidentally, both the police chief and mayor were not present at Monday’s meeting. Mayor pro tem and Langley City Councilwoman Rene Neff was in charge.

“It was an honest mis-take,” Neff said. “We had no idea this was going to hap-pen. Someone brought it in and it all happened so fast.”

The Champagne was brought in by members of the Langley Main Street Association. The group worked with Arango over the years and association leaders wanted to express their gratitude and respect for his contributions to the city.

Funding for 5 percent salary increases and design work for the proposed new Bayview fire station are included in the 2015 budget for South Whidbey Fire/EMS.

The draft document was presented publicly for the first time Thursday, at a workshop with the fire dis-trict’s board of commission-ers. The board is expected to vote on the final budget at 5:30 p.m. next Thursday, Nov. 13, at the district’s head-quarters in Freeland.

Amid a tight $2.5 million operational budget, Chief Rusty Palmer fought for 3.5 percent raises and 1.5 percent cost of living adjust-ments for full-time staff. That $26,000 change would affect three deputy chiefs and administrative staff. Palmer, a contracted employee, is not subject to those wage adjustments but does receive an annual 1.5 percent cost of living increase.

“The staff has not received an increase other than cost of living increases in quite some time,” Palmer said, later explaining that it was about 10 years since a raise was awarded.

“I think it’s time to put some spending into our most valuable resource, and that’s our people,” he added.

During a budget work-shop Thursday, the commis-sioners tried to trim upcom-ing expenses to ensure the fire protection district would have money left for reserve. It was facing a $71,000 deficit in 2015, though Palmer said he expects that to be more than covered by savings from this year, which he estimated to currently have

Students from South Whidbey Elementary vis-ited Sweet Mona’s choco-late boutique for a special tour, the grand prize at the end of “Wonka Week.”

Wonka Week was a week-long celebration of the 50th anniversary of the publication of Roald Dahl’s book, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.”

Teachers read the book out loud, kids received letters from Willy Wonka and participated in special Wonka challenges.

The purpose was to get kids excited about books.

The week culminated in a “Dahlicious” dress up day and assembly where teachers performed for the kids and kids searched through piles of books in search of golden tickets. The five lucky winners got a tour of all the school’s secret places and a visit to Sweet Mona’s.

South Whidbey Schools Foundation announced on Oct. 30 that it will award $23,550 for innova-tive teaching grants to be

used in the current school year.

“Of 26 grant applica-tions submitted by South Whidbey School District educators, the Foundation was able to fully fund 15 projects, partially fund five projects and found alternative funding for four more projects,” said Foundation President Chris Gibson, in a recent press release.

The grants will be used for history, art, science, technology, engineering, math, music, language arts and special educa-tion.

Funded projects for the 2014-15 school year include salmon rearing and other projects at the elementary school, robot-ics and oceanography programs at the middle school, music, art and STEM programs at South

Whidbey Academy and a professional develop-ment program at the high school, according to the release.

Some of the present year’s projects — such as hiring professional musi-cians to work with the middle school orchestra and jazz band, field trips to South Whidbey State Park and funding for the school district’s Garden Program — have also received Foundation fund-ing in the past, as stated in the release. The dis-trict’s Chartwell-certified gardening program, Underwater Robotics Clubs and multidisci-plinary Sheep-to-Shawl programs also received continued funding.

According to the press release, the majority of the funds were raised through a spring gala dinner and auction, the recent Dine Out Wednesdays for South Whidbey Schools program — which involved eight local res-taurants that pledged a percentage of profits to the foundation — a pre-paid gift card program and the foundation’s end-of-year community dona-tion appeal.

“But for the gen-erosity of the South Whidbey community and Foundation supporters, none of these projects would have been pos-sible,” said Gibson in the press release. “It has been another amazing year of fundraising.”

Information about the Foundation, including a full list of projects that received funding this fall and instructions on how to make tax-deductible contributions, can be found at swsfoundation.org.

Mark “Tucker” Stevens

Dec. 31, 1940 – Oct. 29, 2014

Tucker Stevens was a “Hi, neighbor!” kind of guy who made every place he lived and worked better by his having been there. Until his dying day, Tucker combined his educator and instigator talents to encourage everyone lucky enough to have known him to do and give the most they could, whatever the goal or cause.

Tucker’s life journey ended Oct. 29, 2014, at Providence hospital, his family by his side, when he could not be revived from a totally unanticipated col-lapse a few days earlier.

Tucker’s life journey began in Norwalk, Conn., Dec. 31, 1940, the start of a happy New Year for his parents. A move to Florida was followed in 1945 with a move to Santa Barbara, Calif., where he and his older brother George enjoyed what they called “a great growing up.” It was here that Tucker would acquire his lifelong friends.

Santa Barbara reunions were among his favorite things.

Tucker graduated from Santa Barbara High School where he and John Eickert, his classmate and childhood friend, could not resist the call of the surf. Tucker loved all water sports and served for a time as a Carpentaria lifeguard before he and John formed the first Santa Barbara surf shop. They called it Ike and Tuck.

Tucker worked lots of odd jobs so as not to interfere with surfing. He finally determined that if he taught school, he would have the summers free to surf, so he obtained a teaching credential in his-tory from the University of California at Santa Barbara. He taught first at a small elementary school near Ojai and became a top-rat-ed teacher. He loved kids equally as much as surfing and moved quickly through the school administration ranks, becoming principal and then superintendent of the Santa Paula School System, where he educated and inspired for 20 years.

Just out of high school, Tucker married Kathryn Waters Stevens, a buddy’s sister he had known since she was 14 and a surfer in her own right. When the marriage dissolved, Tucker and Kathryn mar-ried others, began their careers, created families and did not see each other again until 27 years later, when they remarried and spent 22 years together. Their blended family includes Tucker’s sons Chad, Joshua, Michael and daughter Elizabeth, and Kathryn’s son and daughter, Jason and Katie. Although Dad was a name

Tucker loved to hear, it was hearing, “Grandpa T., can you tell us one more joke?” from Sophia, Sam, Giselle, Madison, Noah, Cole, Finn and Caitlin that made him smile the most.

When Tucker retired in 2000, he and Kathryn moved to Langley on Whidbey Island in the Puget Sound area of Washington to be near Kathryn’s parents, Bob and Ethel Waters. Here, Tucker was a substitute teacher, president of the Langley Community Club for 13 years, a leading force in local initiatives including The Soup Box Derby to support a local soup kitch-en, and founded and fund-ed Generation Park so kids would have a place to play. He also served his commu-nity as a Civil Service com-missioner, a member of the Historic Preservation Commission, a Hearts and Hammers house captain and on the city’s Parks and Open Space Commission. Making life better for oth-ers and especially children was his lifelong cause. Tucker was a very suc-cessful friendship forger. His smile and enthusiasm

were infectious. As the self-appointed “president” of the Langley Men’s Club, Tucker saw to it that he and his buds burnt a lot of brats every Friday after-noon.

Most recently, Tucker was honored and loved by his community when in true Tucker fashion he entered a local fundrais-ing competition in hopes of winning the title of Mr. South Whidbey. His friends cajoled him in a skit based on the Ralph Edwards-hosted TV show, “This Is Your Life.” By the end of the evening, Tucker knew that even though a life well lived has it’s own rewards, sometimes its nice to hear the thunder of applause.

A celebration of Tucker’s life will be held in Langley, Wash., Saturday, Nov. 15, with a paddle-out memorial set in Santa Barbara some-time in 2015.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Langley Community Club for the playground replacement program, P.O. Box 32, Langley, WA 98260 or Good Cheer Food Bank, Langley, Wash.

Allan Pedersen

Longtime South Whidbey resident Allan Pedersen passed away peacefully in his home. He was 74.

He moved to Whidbey in 1988 and spent many years as a volunteer firefighter and Rescue Squad EMT. He retired in 2006 after

teaching automotive tech-nology at Lake Washington High School, his alma mater. He spent his retired years volunteering at the Eagles Club and Senior Thrift Shop.

He also enjoyed visiting his family and being with his beloved dog, Maggie.

He is survived by his daughter, Mindy Moser (Steve) of Springfield, Mo.; his only grand-daughter, Charissa, also of Springfield, Mo.; his sister, Marlys Ruby (Harry) of Bellevue; and many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his father, Raymond Pedersen, and mother, Gladys Pedersen.

Services were held Nov. 6, 2014 at the Eagles Club.

High wind speeds knocks out power

Hundreds of Freeland homes were without power Thursday morning due to a felled tree in the Mutiny Bay area.

A Puget Sound Energy official said the outage affected 723 customers, and that power wouldn’t be restored to most homes until about noon.

The outage began at about 7:50 a.m. when an oak tree at the intersec-tion of Woodard Avenue and Mutiny Bay Road toppled in high winds, taking out a power line on the way down. No one was injured but it blocked both lanes of traffic on Mutiny Bay; motorists were diverted

to Woodard. The National Weather

Service issued a high wind warning Thursday for the Admiralty Inlet area. Winds were predicted at 25 to 40 mph with gusts near 60 mph.

As of 8:45 a.m. that morning, the Puget Sound Energy official said this was the only reported power outage on South Whidbey.

Throughout Island County, however, far more homes were affected. About 3,500 lost power, all of which were restored by 2 a.m. Friday.

South Whidbey Fire/

EMS was busy responding to calls of trees in power lines and across roadways, but Chief Rusty Palmer said there were no inju-ries.

“Lots of trees and lots of power lines, but every-thing worked out,” he said.

Between Thursday and Friday morning, the fire protection district responded to 11 calls of trees down. Only two of those did not involve power lines, which are the responsibility of Puget Sound Energy.

Veterans honored at several events

Whidbey Island will be awash in activities and events centered around veterans ahead of and on Veterans Day, Nov. 11.

On South Whidbey, American Legion Post 141 will put on a memo-rial service at 11 a.m., Tuesday, Nov. 11 at the Bayview Cemetery. Grethe Cammermeyer, a former Army nurse, will be the guest speaker at the event which will also include a color guard and the Poppy Girls, who pass out flowers in honor of veterans.

Also, U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Everett, will have a roundtable with veterans from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. at the VFW Post 7392, 3037 Goldie Road in Oak Harbor. Later in the day in Oak Harbor, there will be the third annual Veterans Day Parade starting at 2 p.m. in down-town, rain or shine.

Clinton alders to come down

Four large alders at Dan Porter Park in Clinton will fall to buzzing chainsaws

sometime this month.The trees, described as

being about 100 feet tall, are “dead or dying” and are marked for removal by Island County Public Works, parks division. Department Director Bill Oakes confirmed the offending trees are threats to the Clinton Library, a nearby park-and-ride lot and to the general public.

Their removal will be completed by an outside contractor sometime in November.

The project got the green light from the Island County commis-sioners during the board’s Wednesday work session. Estimated to cost $2,800 from Real Estate Excise Tax (or REET) funds, board approval wasn’t required as it falls into the category of a small works roster job, but Oakes said he makes a policy of hav-ing board approval for all projects paid for with REET funds.

Oakes said Thursday he does yet know what will be done with the lumber. Usually, fallen trees are mulched or pushed off to the side of a road, but this could be used as good firewood and he is not yet sure of the process for making it available to the public.

Held at the South Whidbey High School commons, clinical psy-chologist and drug treat-ment specialist Steve Freng will be the featured

Langley seeks door decorators

Langley is looking for artists to adorn the doors of downtown storefronts as part of its Deck the

Doors competition. Three winning doors

will be selected with each artist or team win-ning a $1,000 prize from the Langley Main Street Association.

The contest helps deco-rate Langley’s shopping hub for the holidays. Last year, more than 50 shops were decorated as part of the competition, accord-ing to a press release.

Doors must be ready for judging Nov. 26. Winners will be announced Dec.

20 at Boy and Dog Park on First Street.

Those interested should email mainstreet@whid bey.com for details.

Merchants are welcome to contact artists, receive a list from the Main Street Association, or do the decorating themselves.


To his wife, David Price is a Renaissance man.

A Freeland artist, building designer, avid cyclist and now curator of artisanal goods for his new Langley store and studio, Price deflects the praise. Being good at several things was born out of neces-sity, he says.

“To make a living out here you have to do multiple things,” he said in his new First Street store, edit (the store’s name is lower case).

The small but open space features only a handful of products made by someone other than Price. All are cho-sen — curated, as his wife Holly Price says — because of the stories behind them, and all are items used by the couple.

Much like the encaustic art pieces on the walls of edit, every wood block, book, jar of Whidbey-made sea salt and shampoo speaks to the authenticity of its creation and creator. They’re also selected because the Prices found them to be evocative in the same manner as one of Price’s works which may recall a childhood trip to Hood Canal or a daily ferry trip home to Whidbey.

The store brings all of Price’s interests together

to a single location. Inside edit he works on his build-ing designs, puts his art on display in his own gallery and offers a small selection of goods that he and wife Holly believe in.

“That was the main thing, to bring those things togeth-er,” Price said.

As 20-year residents of South Whidbey, the Prices have seen the area change quite a bit. Of course, they’ve been instrumental in some of those changes. David Price was an owner of the Langley-based design firm Flat Rock Productions for 10 years until 2011, during which time he

created some of the more iconic buildings on South Whidbey, such as the Bayview Cash Store, Useless Bay Coffee Co. in Langley and the new Whidbey Telecom build-ing in Freeland. The style of articulated store fronts to a single structure is not unique to Price, he admits, but it is a bit of a signature when brows-ing through his online catalog of past projects.

Now, the Prices have taken the aesthetic of their design work and brought it into edit. The shop opened last week-end, less than a month after the space became available. Holly Price said they made the decision to move in less than a day after they visited.

Developments in Langley and the specific storefront space’s availability were reasons the Prices opened edit. Seeing the success of fellow animation studio/shop Kalakala, which will open a mercantile on Second Street, the Prices felt com-pelled to join what they see as an upswing for Langley. Inspiration also came from their son — a junior at Santa Clara University — for get-ting rid of his television and video game console. That prompted them to simplify their lives and seek a look and feel of handcrafted goods with character, like the wood

cutting boards made by Clinton-based Turnco Wood Goods, one of which had nail hole marks and a burn mark still visible from its former use.

Everything in their store has been used by the Prices. Shampoo, soap and tea from Bay Area-based Juniper Ridge are particular favor-ites, though they did pass on putting up a new tea flavor because they had not yet tried it.

“We have to edit at some point,” Holly Price said.

Edit’s retail offerings are the most visible part of the location with all of the street-side window filled with wood goods, alluring scent-ed candles and a few books. However, that will likely be the smallest part of the busi-

ness inside. Price continues to design

buildings, primarily homes, and will do some of that work inside the store at his stand-ing desk and nearby work table.

Hours to visit the shop will be a bit haphazard other than weekends, the Prices said. The best way to know is to check their website www.edit whidbey.com. Despite being a designer with an affinity for form and function and sell-ing a biking book called “The Rules” in which the author lays out the highly specific guidelines to being a proper cyclist, Price himself is not much for a uniform work schedule.

“I’m not regimented at all, other than my morning cof-fee,” David said.


“Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot

see the shadow.”

Designer, artist David Price opens Langley studio shop

Ben Watanabe / The Record

David Price rolls some sketch paper over a design print for a San Juan Islands home design inside his new store in Langley which is part gallery, part office, part retail.

ResponseEditorial shot the messengerEditor,

Island Transit is in deep doo-doo and Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson thinks that the stench of the board’s failures will go away by holding her nose and tell-ing us everything smells like roses. Her attempt to mask the gravity of the situation by spraying politi-cal Febreze on the editorial pages of this newspaper is insulting, and our commu-nity deserves better.

Rather than assaulting us with disingenuous view-point articles designed to put a positive spin on a very serious problem, the board should be drafting heartfelt apologies to the:

• Taxpayers that will have to pay for Island Transit’s egregious finan-cial mistakes

• Transit riders who have had their bus routes cut, and

• Transit employees who were terminated to reduce expenses.

Contrary to the South Whidbey Record’s opin-ion, I believe the transit board members should resign. Individually and collectively, the board has failed to provide adequate oversight of a multi-million dollar municipal corpora-tion. Their failure has unnecessarily cost the tax-payers millions of dollars and destroyed the public’s trust in their ability to lead responsibly.

The community needs representatives that are not afraid to ask difficult questions, and demand answers. They also need a newspaper that can put

aside its personal feelings about elected officials, and objectively assess a situ-ation.

The South Whidbey Record’s shoot the mes-senger editorial this past Saturday lambasted the one board member who took decisive action to change the course at Island Transit. While Oak Harbor’s mayor may not be the most endearing politi-cian, he had the guts to make necessary changes at Island Transit. Without his strong-arm tactics, Ms. Rose would still be in the driver’s seat and the board would continue to rubber stamp her every wish.

“Theft” of sick leave not in auditEditor,

Recent discussion of Island Transit finances confuses the state audit report with the separation agreement for the previous executive director.

The official state audit report covers 2013 and part of 2014 and recommends

more careful definition and tracking of paid leave (sick leave, vacation time, and compensation time). It did not document any “theft” of sick leave, vaca-tion time, or compensation time; rather it recommend-ed better documentation of these categories for all salaried personnel, which has been instituted imme-diately. Unfortunately, the Audit Report did not men-tion that accrued vacation days for 2013 and 2014 for the former executive direc-tor can and do accurately account for the longer dates out of the office in 2013 and 2014.

The separation agree-ment with the previous executive director, Martha Rose, was drafted by legal counsel, in consultation with the Washington State Transit Insurance Pool (WSTIP) in October 2014. It included carefully cal-culated benefit obligations set forth in Island Transit’s Personnel Policies, includ-ing payouts for unused sick leave and vacation subject to maximum caps on pay-outs as provided in these policies. Due to 25 years of employment with Island

Transit, Martha Rose had accrued considerable sick leave and also vacation hours going well beyond the caps. The settlement did not reimburse these above-cap hours. Amounts paid out in the separation agreement were contrac-tual obligations pursuant to Martha Rose’s employ-ment agreement and personnel policies that apply to all Island Transit employees.

Upon the recommenda-tion of legal counsel, the separation agreement was accepted unanimously at the October 17th meet-ing of the Island Transit Board.

City council’s toast a mistake, but nothing to fall down about

Editorial

As the saying goes, a little bit of bubbly never hurt any-one, but it sure can be embarrassing, as the Langley City Council discovered this week.

Caught up in a spontaneous and celebratory moment, council members, city staff and members of the public inadvertently broke state law and violated Langley code with a Champagne toast to departing Planning Chief Jeff Arango during Monday’s regular council meeting.

Oops! While technically a civil infraction, city police don’t

plan on issuing any citations and have instead chosen to address the situation with an email warning to the council about consuming alcoholic beverages on public property. This was the right call.

Arguments could be made that public servants should not be afforded any leeway, and that breaking the law merits accountability. In fact, The Record made that very argument just last week concerning the Washington State Patrol’s decision to launch an investigation of Island Transit following the results of a state audit.

But, these are vastly different situations. One is pos-sible fraud of public funds, the other a lapse in judgment. The council’s partaking of spirits was a poor decision indeed, but hardly a nefarious or planned bucking of the law.

No doubt some will cry foul that elected officials are getting off with a slap on the wrist, and it’s certainly an understandable gripe, especially to those who haven’t been afforded the same luxury when they were pulled over for speeding, running a stop sign or for offering a toast to a friend in a public place.

Perhaps city council members could take it upon them-selves to alleviate such public concerns by practicing a bit of self accountability. They may not have been issued an official ticket by town police, but there is certainly noth-ing stopping them from voluntarily paying a fine or doing a little community service.

Just think how cool it would be to see the council come together for a Saturday of weeding at city hall as a public display of self policing, an acknowledgment of that a mis-take was made and the council isn’t above the law. One couldn’t ask for a clearer demonstration of accountability, character and leadership by our city’s most trusted lead-ers.

Everyone makes mistakes, but it’s what we do to fix them that truly settles the bill.

be the fault of the current Island Transit Board at all.

According to RCW 36.57A.050, which spells out certain guidelines for public transportation benefit area boards, these boards: “…shall consist of elected offi-cials selected by and serving at the pleasure of the gov-erning bodies of component cities within the area and the county legislative authority of each county within the area.”

Elected city and county officials are, first and fore-most, responsible to the constituents in their respec-tive jurisdictions. To meet that obligation they serve on their City Councils or County Commissions, but also on numerous other Committees and Boards.

Serving on Island Transit’s governing board may unreasonably divide the attention of these oth-erwise attentive and profes-sional elected officials. If so, this may go a long way to explaining how Island Transit apparently went so long without closer atten-tion and more direct scru-tiny from its own governing board of elected officials.

If we change the excerpt-ed portion of the statute to read “may” rather than “shall”, transit boards could then, where desired, con-sist of appointed, rather than

elected public officials. Once accomplished, the elected officials currently serving on the Island Transit Board could take a step back from direct oversight of Island Transit and, instead, appoint a commissioned board whose members would have that oversight as their sole responsibility.

The elected officials would still provide legisla-tive support but would del-egate the aspects of system oversight and direction to the board members they appoint. The appointed board members would still be public officials, would still take oaths of office and have to abide by the same ethical standards all public officials should, but they

would be able to devote all of their attention to Island Transit, rather than just a part of that, as but one of numerous other boards and committees on which they serve.

A simple change in state law in this regard could help give us the latitude we need to provide the sort of governing oversight which Island Transit both needs and deserves.

By FRED MCCARTHYMayor of Langley

November is the month of Thanksgiving. We have many things to be thankful for just in living on Whidbey Island. We also have things we appreciate that we need to actively guard, preserve, and cultivate.

The quality of life here is why many people came here.

Many people feel it is so extraordinary that it is worth investing their time, talents and treasure in preserving the safety, security, and peace of mind for ourselves and our friends, neighbors and family members here.

November also marks the sixth month of meetings of the Island County Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition in Coupeville. So what has been accomplished so far and what does the Coalition plan to do in the coming year? We have selected a proven model for organizing a Drug Prevention Coalition that is based on 10 plus years of successful research and best practice reporting from Michigan State University. The plan is in the form of a Handbook we are sharing widely with anyone who is interested. We have been presented with

Healthy Youth Survey data by experts in measurement and student support from Island County. We have 37 people from all walks of life in Island County who have joined the Coalition and attended at least one of our monthly meet-ings. We have collected 20 plus research and best prac-tice articles about substance abuse, community approach-es to intervention, treatment, law enforcement etc. We have attended community meetings organized by Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson and Sheriff Mark Brown where friends and neighbors have shared what it feels like to have their property invaded or to know that young people they know and care for are drawn into the web of illegal drugs.

We have learned that this can occur after an accident

and the pain relief of pre-scription drugs or maybe a young person experiments with drugs and falls into full-scale addiction. Many times these are good people in our families who have made very bad life-changing deci-sions. Next year we will join a national anti-drug coalition to access planning and training modules, gather additional baseline data, and form sub-committees to focus on high priority activities to address the most pressing concerns first.

Here in Langley, a run-down property with travel trailers was inhabited by peo-ple with police records from other areas. We worked with the landlord, arrested individ-uals, hauled in a large dump-ster, and are requiring the property to be cleaned up or demolished, and are convey-

ing the message that we are not going to let people set up shop here and pursue illegal drug-related activities. It is a small step among many being taken here, but an important one for us to take.

You can help. Consider joining or supporting the Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition. Call the anony-mous county reporting line for suspected drug activity (360-679-7319), e-mail [email protected] or call the Langley Police Department at 360-221-4333 and report suspicious activity. Thank our dedicated police officers the next time you see them for being proactive about this problem. Thank you for your support. By working together we can keep the community we love and enjoy.

Sincerely,Fred

XC boys earns top academic award

Running smart is an

admonishment often said for cross country and other distance runners. In the case of the South Whidbey boys cross coun-

try team, they’re smart runners.

South Whidbey High School boys cross country was recently awarded the 1A academic champion-ship by the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association. The nine Falcons who were subject to the evaluation had a cumulative grade point average of 3.781, the highest score of all the 1A teams in Washington. They are: Truman Hood, Cole Zink, Anthony Kovic,

Will Simms, Kohl Hunter, Anders Bergquist, Collin Burns, Cory Ackerman and Evan Mellish.

The Falcon cross coun-try team was the only one from South Whidbey to be crowned academic champions this season. South Whidbey’s boys runners left Thursday for the state 1A cross country championship on Saturday in Pasco.

South Whidbey quali-fied for the state race Nov. 8 in Pasco.

With a 2-7 record, the season was not kind to South Whidbey’s football team under first-year head coach Chris Tormey.

The Falcons struggled mightily on defense, allowing more than 30 points in five games, includ-ing a season-worst 53 points to Lakewood late last month.

South Whidbey’s offense, how-ever, remained a point of pride. According to statistics submitted by coaches to the Daily Herald (a sister paper to The Record), the Falcons had plenty of firepower on their roster.

Ahead of a non-playoff away game against the potent offense of Lynden Christian (2-4 Northwest Conference, 5-4 over-all), South Whidbey figured to focus on its strength.

Most plays started with the mix of power and speed of senior running back Deven Damerau. In his first year as the starting tailback, Damerau amassed 1,299 yards rushing — an average of 144.33 yards per game — to lead the league. In fact, his rushing yardage total is more than the next two top running backs, both from Archbishop Murphy, com-bined.

While the ground-and-pound formula likely made legendary South Whidbey football coach Jim Leierer proud, the Falcons also took flight this season.

Parker Collins, who saw some action as the starting quarter-back last year before taking over the job this season as a

senior, is second in the league in passing yards. Trailing King’s Koa Wilkins, Collins threw for 1,283 yards this season, which was more than 500 yards ahead of third-place Blake Watts of Lakewood.

All those throws went to someone — two someones, actu-ally. Charlie Patterson, a junior, wracked up 505 receiving yards, including several spectacularly athletic catches. His yardage puts him in second place in the

Cascade Conference behind King’s Karl Sather’s 540 yards.

Trailing both of them is first-year football player Mo Hamsa, who quickly learned the role of pass-catching tight end and became Collins’ go-to guy in the middle of the field. At 6-feet, 5-inches, Hamsa presented a big target who was hard to bring down. A baseball player, Hamsa’s sure hands were also a major benefit to Collins and the

Falcons’ ability to move down field.

In their last league game of the season, the Falcons trounced the Sultan Turks 27-13.

South Whidbey would need all of their skill players at peak form to beat Lynden Christian, which was scheduled to take place Friday.

The Lyncs scored 40-plus points four times, and were

held under 20 just twice, once to Meridian and once to Mount Baker. On defense, the Lyncs have been stifling. In four games, Lynden Christian held opponents under 10 points, the most points allowed all season was 31 to Mount Baker.

Football’s offense took flight despite poor record

projected expenses in 2015 is $3,885,583. Of that, $2,559,133 is slated for operations — a nearly $60,000 decrease in spend-ing from this year. Revenue is expected to be $3,185,542, though nearly $700,000 goes into the district’s capital fund. The remaining opera-tional revenue is estimated at $2,487,751.

Despite being a public meeting, only staff were at the workshop ahead of the forthcoming public hearing on the budget next week. Palmer told the commission-ers that the deputy chiefs were at the high end of aver-age pay for their positions in Washington, and that the other employees were at the low end of average pay. He supported the raises because they handle more calls com-pared to other similarly sized fire protection districts, such as Central Whidbey, he said.

“These guys have far greater responsibility, partly because of the number of people and number of calls,” Palmer said.

Commissioner Mike Helland, after asking for the chief to reduce the raise

percent, turned to the fire district staff to say he sup-ported and appreciated their work and dedication, but that times were tough and the budget did not allow for more money.

“We have dual responsibil-ity,” Helland said. “It’s not that we don’t support staff.”

“I wish we had bigger pockets,” he added.

In all, South Whidbey Fire/EMS expects to have a little less than $2.5 million in operational revenue and just over $2.5 million in opera-tional expenses next year. The difference will be made up in the cash carryover from this year.

A few major capital expenses are slated for 2015, such as the purchase of two $300,000 water tenders. They will replace existing district vehicles over 27 years old.

“We’re getting to a point where it’s getting more dif-ficult to find parts for them;

their mechanical failure rate is increasing,” Palmer said.

The other is $300,000 for design work and building permits on the proposed Bayview fire station on Bayview Road near Good Cheer Food Bank and the Bayview School.

Palmer is also slated to have the district-owned truck he uses as a com-mand vehicle replaced. Per a district policy to guide replacement of vehicles and buildings, Palmer’s truck is nearing its 10-year/150,000-mile threshold by year’s end, necessitating the search for a new truck.

The district’s budget is not available online, but Palmer said copies can be made and picked up at the Freeland office, and that he’d happily speak with people about the South Whidbey Fire/EMS budget, which he referred to as “their budget.”

For South Whidbey resi-dents, a trip to the beach may seem a more feasible venture than a trip to the slopes of Stevens Pass, but South Whidbey Parks and Recreation District is trying to make a day on the moun-tain a little more accessible.

The SnowRider Ski and Board Bus will roll into action Jan. 3, making eight Saturday trips to Stevens Pass until Feb. 21 with stops in Coupeville, Clinton and Everett.

The bus stops in Coupeville at about 5:20 a.m. and stops in Clinton at about 6:10 a.m. Depending upon weather and traffic, the bus typically returns to Clinton at around 7:20 p.m.

This is the program’s 18th year in service, provid-ing chartered buses with experienced winter-weather drivers and two or three chaperones, depending upon the number of partici-pants.

All adults and young people 10 years of age and older may attend. Adults who wish to volunteer as chaperones may apply online at swparks.org and will receive a ride to the mountain as well as a chap-erone lift ticket.

Tickets from Whidbey Island cost $385, which includes the bus ride and ferry fare for eight

Saturday trips. Lift tickets and lessons cost an addi-tional amount, and group discounts on lift tickets are available. Scholarships are also available through the South Whidbey Parks and Recreation District and through the Healthy Island Youth Initiative, both of which are needs-based. Carrie Monforte, South Whidbey Parks and Recreations program coordinator, also noted that fifth graders can ski free at the resort, and may ride the bus.

Most of the participants are of non-driving age — 14 to 16 years old — Monforte said, and parents may not wish to spend a day driving and accompanying their child to the slopes. The bus offers an opportunity for participants to be active and enjoy a day of outdoor fun without having to worry

about transportation, she said.

According to Monforte, the program is expected to reach capacity again this year although as of this week only three partici-pants had registered. There are 50 total spaces available. Early registration ends Dec. 10, after which participants who do not wish to ride for the whole season may select certain Saturdays a la carte.

If weather is especially unfavorable and the resort or pass is closed, riders will be notified prior to pickup if possible. Cancelled days will be made up for at the end of the season, accord-ing to Monforte.

“The Wizards of Weepy Isle” debuts at WICABy KATE DANIELSouth Whidbey Record

Piper Reva knows how to make an entrance. The Freeland resident — a muralist, singer/songwriter and performance artist — rolled up to Timbuktu Java Bar and Gallery in her “Business Car D” — a silver Ford Pinto with toy pinto horses lining the dashboard — with disco ball in hand and a bright bar of song at the ready.

Reva is conscious of the light, whether it be physical, metaphysical or spiritual, but said she is also well aware of the darkness. The latter she combats with laughter.

On Saturday, Nov. 22, Reva and two “local elfin children” will take to the stage at Whidbey Island Center for the Arts (WICA) for her show, “The Wizards of Weepy Isle.” The play follows the journey of a mouse, a reincarnation of gypsy singer-songwriter Penelope Zazen, who encounters “a myriad of wizards” — in the form of a bee, a buffalo, a tree-horse, a giant Spaniard egg-man, a fairy and an evil sorceress — when he is shipwrecked and washed ashore upon an enchanted island.

“The Wizards of Weepy Isle” is being presented as a part of WICA’s Local Artist Series, a program which was initiated in order to grant opportunities for local artists to perform at the center. Each year, four local artists are chosen to perform for a night free of rental fees; all artists receive a profit from the evening’s ticket sales.

As Reva pointed out, this is an important opportunity for artists, like herself, who have put “every cent” into their respective creative production.

The evening will com-mence with cocktails and an art show pre-party from 6-7 p.m. in the lobby. The

house doors will open at 7 p.m. and audience members will be seated while having the opportunity to view two short films. From 7:30 to 9:30 p.m., “The Wizards of Weepy Isle” will be per-formed followed by a cock-tail and art after-party in the lobby from 9:30 to 10 p.m. Tickets to the show cost $20; Reva’s artworks and CDs will also be available for purchase.

“It is my first attempt to put everything I love to do into one evening,” said Reva. “It is a true story of the magic that I have received since I lived here.”

“The Wizards of Weepy Isle” will incorporate “wild visual design of costume and set,” painting, music, poetry, comedy and cathar-sis.

The majority of the dia-logue exists between six characters Reva portrays on film, and two she will play on stage. Two local children will serve as nar-

rators, backup dancers and singers.

The characters of the show, Reva said, were all presented to her through dreams, visions, hallucina-tions or personal interac-tions in the time she has resided on Whidbey.

“I am just offering the messages that they have offered me, the medicine,” she said, noting that her intention in presenting the show to an audience is “for all of us to have fun, to keep our souls burning. I want it to serve as a reminder to love everyone, everywhere, all the time.”

“I’ve created this lov-able monster,” she said of the show. “I can’t wait for this dream to come true because that is the guts of it, real life magic and dreams that come true.”

Susan Averett, friend and public relations manager for the show, remarked in an email to The Record that for Reva, her life is her art.

From the “eclectic,” colorful personal adornments to her ability to exude effortless creative energy, art and life

for Reva are one and the same.

“Everything she does has color, flair, meaning, energy, wisdom, light, love,” she said. “She’s very much from the heart, and whatever she’s experiencing in the moment is what is expressed.”

“I recently remarked that she is Whidbey’s mix of Lady Gaga meets Cirque du Soleil, referring to the outfits, costumes and looks that she puts together that are so uniquely her own,” said Averett.

In addition to the one-night-only performance at WICA, the play will be made into a feature documentary and will be condensed into a short portfolio piece Reva said she will “submit to the Great Beyond for global art endeavors.” She also intends to take the show on tour.

“Piper will have you

thinking and crying and laughing. You may be a little disturbed, but in a good way,” wrote architect and fan John Underhill Ottenheimer of Organic Architecture Northwest in a recent press release. “You definitely will be visu-ally delighted. Those lucky enough to attend will have at least one thing to be thankful for the following Thursday.”

“Piper onstage is pure enchantment. I always feel uplifted by her energy, and touched by the imme-diacy of her feelings in that moment,” wrote Averett.

“You should come; you will like it. It will be funny; it will make you laugh and cry,” Reva remarked to an inquiring bystander, Glen Davis, at Timbuktu Thursday afternoon.

Tickets are available at the box office or online at

wicaonline.org.

WICA hosts Brew HaHa and Seattle International Comedy CompetitionWhidbey Island Center for the Arts will be hosting a

leg of The Seattle International Comedy Competition, pre-ceded by a local open mic Brew HaHa at 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 8 at Zech Hall.

The Seattle International Comedy Competition is an annual stand-up contest which includes 23 shows spanning 26 days and 19 venues. Over 30 comedians were selected

to perform from a pool of hundreds of applicants. The jokesters perform throughout the Pacific Northwest and are judged by local celebrity judges, such as Whidbey’s Suzanne Kellman and Gwen Jones.

The competition begins at 8 p.m.; tickets cost $25 each and are available for purchase at the box office.

All are invited to try their hand at comedy at the free

open mic. Open mic sets will last 2-5 minutes each. Diamond Knot Brewery will be serving beverages includ-ing Winter Ale.

Coupeville and Langley both took advantage of the legisla-tion, Island County was slow-er to move forward. Safety concerns and legal issues delayed action until recently when the discussion was raised again.

Draft rules were penned that outline how such zones would be established and regulated. To start, only areas with speed limits 25 mph or less would qualify.

“It won’t apply every-where,” said Bill Oakes, direc-tor of Island County Public Works. “There will be areas where they don’t meet the speed limit requirements.”

Communities that do qual-ify would then need to prove its support with a petition signed by 51 percent of prop-erty owners. Property front-age is a factor as well; people with the most land have the most say.

“It’s not a one-to-one vote,” said Oakes, in a work ses-sion with the commissioners on Wednesday. “If you have more frontage, that signature is more valuable on a peti-tion.”

“So, if you have three people in a neighborhood, you could have one decider,” Commissioner Jill Johnson responded.

According to Oakes, the same process is used for road

vacations and is a calculation method commonly used by public works departments.

Johnson voiced concerns about legal liability and safety as well. Oakes acknowledged that the county would likely assume some liability by law-fully allowing golf carts on public roads. As for safety, the topic has long been an issue, and initial concerns voiced by island police concerned the state’s lack of requirements for standard vehicle lights — headlights, turn signals, etc. — and were cause for the initial delay.

The problem was enough of a headache that supporters successfully lobbied legisla-tive District 10 Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, to intro-duce a new bill that would allow counties greater flex-ibility in adding their own requirements. The legislation moved out of the House of Representatives swiftly with broad support, but died in the Senate.

Smith said this week that later meetings with county officials alleviated legal fears about counties independent-ly mandating lights on golf carts, and the proposal now includes just such require-ments. Golf carts would need to have all the lights currently equipped on cars, under the draft rules.

Smith said having an addi-tional transportation alterna-tive for the public is a positive, and the environmental ben-efits are clear. She remains

hopeful the measure will move forward.

“To me, it makes perfect sense,” Smith said.

In an interview follow-ing Wednesday’s meeting, Johnson said she’s still on the fence about whether to sup-port the golf-cart ordinance. She still has concerns about liability, and whether this is “something we need to be doing,” but that her main fear is one of safety.

“I’m not sure I’m voting ‘No’ on this, I’m just not sure I’m voting ‘Yes,’” Johnson

said.Under the existing regu-

lations, users would not be required to have a driver’s license, but do need to be 16, and have completed a driver’s safety course or have “past driving experience,” accord-ing to Oakes.

Langley Police Chief Dave Marks said he had concerns when the city adopted its ordi-nance several years ago, such as people driving them while intoxicated because they believe, “They aren’t really cars,” but it’s proved a non-

issue.“I thought at first we’d have

problems, but it’s worked out pretty well,” Marks said.

Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard reported similar suc-cess, that the town has yet to experience any real head-aches.

Both municipalities require users to acquire a license at City Hall. So far, they’ve had few takers: two in Langley and just one in Coupeville. Oakes said the county’s pro-posal carries no such require-ment.

Communities seeking to establish zones would be required to pay several fees. The application is $150, signs marking zone boundaries are $100 each and maintenance of each sign would carry an annual $50 fee, Oakes said.

The meeting later this month would include three votes by the board: one for the regulations, one for the fees and another concerning the Beverly Beach commu-nity’s request to establish a golf cart zone.

said.Still, Reagan said the

office has counted all but the disputed ballots, so the results aren’t likely to change significantly. The next count is scheduled for Nov. 25, which is the certifi-cation date.

Reagan said she has about 160 uncounted ballots that have signature issues. She said those people have been sent letters and she urges them to respond so their votes can be counted.

She said a recount will be necessary if the difference in votes is less than 2,000 and also less than 0.5 per-cent of the total vote.

At this point, she said it looks like a recount will be needed in the race.

If so, Reagan said the can-vassing board will set a date for the recount after the

regular certification date. She said the amount of time it will take to do a recount could depend on other races. It currently looks like a state-wide recount will be necessary for Initiative 1351, which concerns K-12 education.

The new commissioner will not take office until after a recount, if necessary.

The winning commis-sioner candidate gets to take office immediately fol-lowing certification because the current commissioner was appointed.

of Arango by the city coun-

cil — he was presented a glass orb in recognition of his work — Main Street officials broke out the booze and plastic cups were

passed around the room.Neff said she did have an

internal moment of pause where she thought, “I won-der if this is appropriate,” but within moments the toast was being made and Arango celebrated.

“They were pouring and I just went with it,” she said.

“We were thinking of Jeff, not the act,” Neff added.

Along with Neff, Council members Jim Sundberg, Robin Black and Thomas Gill were in attendance. Councilman Bruce Allen was not present.

According to the revised code of Washington, RCW 66.44.100, “… no person shall open the package con-taining liquor or consume

liquor in a public place. Every person who violates any provision of this section shall be guilty of a class 3 civil infraction.”

Marks said the penalty is a ticket and monetary fine, like one would receive “for speeding or running a stop sign.” Such infractions, however, are discretionary and officers have the right to issue warnings.

“That’s basically what we’re doing here and I think that’s enough,” Marks said. “We’re saying, ‘Come on guys, what were you doing? You should know better.’ ”

McCarthy sent out an email to the council after receiving the email from Marks. The mayor char-

acterized the incident as an “expanded awareness opportunity for us all” and offered suggestions about how to handle such situa-tions in the future.

“Next time someone comes spontaneously with Champagne, etc., we should thank them and tell them we deeply appreciate the gesture, but it will have to occur off site at an appropri-ate location after the work day… ,” McCarthy wrote.

He also recommended

asking for non-alcoholic beverages as a substitute.

In a later interview with The Record, McCarthy said, like Marks, he plans to take no additional action. It shouldn’t have happened, he said, but it was an inno-cent mistake.

“I think you can use it as a learning experience, and I don’t see it happening again,” McCarthy said.

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) 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.

The Whidbey Audubon Society rare bird report recently announced that a Western scrub jay had been observed near Clinton, not far from where I live. I’ve kept my bird feeders full and my eyes peeled, but haven’t yet seen this out-of-territory species. I’m watch-ing for a sky blue bird with a grey back, no crest and pale underparts.

Western scrub jays have been expanding their range north from drier regions of the Southwest since the 1970s. They’ve established themselves near Portland and in the very southern part of Puget Sound, par-ticularly around Joint Base Lewis McChord. The birds don’t migrate, but younger birds may disperse, par-ticularly in the fall. They’ve

been sighted on Whidbey in the past and may become a common bird here in the future.

In the meantime, I’ll continue to enjoy our com-mon resident, the Steller’s jay. That cobalt blue, black-crested, saucy corvid swoops into my seed feeder sending all the little birds and half the seed flying off into the air.

I used to feed them peanuts, but that nearly became a full time job and, like kids in a cafeteria, if I didn’t get the food to them right away, they’d start squawking.

All corvids (crows, ravens and jays) are remarkably intelligent.

Back when I was feed-ing the Steller’s jays, I’d set

peanuts on the deck railing. They’d watch from the roof and wait for me to go back inside before descending for their treats.

One day, instead of retreating, I paused for a few minutes to enjoy the warm afternoon. First the jay scolded me with its own alarm call, trying to get me to leave so that it could fly down and grab the peanuts. Then, after several more unsuccessful tries to scare me off, it pulled out its ace-in-the-hole, the alarm call of the top predator in the neighborhood.

I watched that Steller’s jay belt out an exact mimic of a bald eagle’s call. If I hadn’t been standing close enough to see its beak moving, I wouldn’t have believed the call actually

came from the jay. Steller’s jays are rather

common mimics. There’s one near Langley Middle School that performs a per-fect red-tailed hawk mimic.

I’m particularly excited about having a Western scrub jay visiting in the neighborhood because of the work of bird behavior-ist Nicola Clayton, who has been studying that species.

In the fall these jays each stash 3,000-5,000 nuts and acorns. Months later they return to consume their food cache. But they do not just stash the nuts random-ly. To learn more about the process, Professor Clayton devised an experiment that

proves the jays employ future planning when it comes to when and where they hide their horde.

Clayton’s test involved setting up a large enclosed aviary for her flock of cap-tive jays. At one end of the aviary was a room that she called a Bed and Breakfast. That room had a bountiful supply of breakfast acorns. A separate room at the far end of the aviary was a stripped down Motel 6 with no food.

On separate occasions Clayton isolated the jays in just the B & B or just the Motel 6. Later all the doors were opened and the birds could fly freely throughout the aviary. During this

open-door time, the jays took the opportunity to stash food in the Motel 6 room, but didn’t bother to stash in the B & B room. According to Clayton, they must have remembered the hungry hours enclosed in the Motel 6 and wanted to prevent that from happen-ing in the future.

Clayton called that future planning, and I agree.

If or when those clever scrub jays make it to Whidbey Island, we’ll likely enjoy them as much as we do our old friend, the Steller’s jay.
