Republicans push for new criteria for futures fund

Minor rule tweak leads to big talk in Langley

By JANIS REIDSouth Whidbey Record

Island County’s two Republican commissioners want the economic potential of a property to be considered when approving or denying a Conservation Futures appli-cation.

While the policy shift would be subtle if approved, it would be the first time the board will diverge from a set of largely environmental criteria.

“What I’m saying is I’m not comfortable with the criteria as it is,” said Commissioner Jill Johnson, a Republican, at a Wednesday work session. “I’ve inherited this criteria… I feel like if we’re going to continue to award funding, that criteria needs to reflect the values of the board.”

The purpose of the state program is to provide “a use-ful tool for counties to pre-serve lands of public inter-est for future generations,” according to the RCW.

Commissioner Rick Hannold, a Republican who ran on an economic growth platform last year, agreed that the selection criteria for the program needs to make sure protections are not limit-ing the county’s commercial growth.

“I don’t want to deter any-one from applying… but I would like to see where the economic benefit is weighed,” Hannold said. “Part of the county’s problem is most of its funding is dependent on recreation and tourism and the military. We’ve got all our eggs in one basket.”

Hannold called the current criteria “just too broad,” add-ing that it needs to address other concerns and provide “opportunity for a more diverse job market.”

What started as a minor change to a city ordinance turned into a big discussion about how some rules make Langley unwelcoming for children and families.

Police Chief Dave Marks proposed a small change to an ordinance about bikes, skateboards and roller skates at Monday’s Langley City Council meeting. He request-ed an exception for police so they can ride their bikes on sidewalks after purchasing a couple of new bicycles for officers to patrol with.

Marks said the bikes were popular last year with resi-dents and make the officers more approachable than if they are in the Chevrolet Malibus or on foot.

“It’s been nothing but posi-tive,” he said.

But dredging up a previ-ously contentious rule again had some council members questioning the validity of keeping children on scoot-ers and roller skates out of downtown. Councilwoman Rene Neff described young children on a scooter or on skates and said she’d like to see more of that in town, even in the busier downtown business district of First and Second streets. One young man said he understood the exclusion of skateboards from the business area, but said because scooters, like the one he had, came with brakes, they should be allowed.

“I get why skateboards are banned, ‘cause they don’t have brakes,” said 14-year-old Darien Jacob.

The city’s rules prohibit skateboards, scooters and

No flooding or no occupancy permit, county saysBy JUSTIN BURNETT

South Whidbey Record

Until a drainage problem is resolved, Sunny View Village in Freeland won’t be issued an occupancy permit.

Dave Wechner, director of Island County Planning and Community Development, confirmed this week that flood-ing onto a neighbor’s property will need to be corrected before residents of the still-under-construction development can move in. The drainage system must be built accord-ing to plan, which was approved by Island County Public Works, and functioning as designed before a permit will be issued, wrote Wechner, in a Friday email to The Record.

“… when it is built and functioning as it should, then we approve occupancy,” Wechner said.

Sunny View is a $6.3 million project of the Island County Housing Authority, a state special-purpose district not affili-ated with county government. The organization works to provide safe, sanitary and affordable housing to low-income and elderly residents, according to its website.

Teri Anania, the housing authority’s executive director, was out of the office this week and attempts to reach her by telephone and email for this story were unsuccessful.

Late last year, after construction was well underway, the Wichers complained that the northeast corner of their lot was being flooded with runoff released from the develop-ment’s water retention system. They claimed it was a new problem and a direct result of the project.

The housing authority’s engineering firm, Freeland-based Davido Consulting Group, argued at the time that topographical maps suggested the area is a natural low point and water collection point.

Since then, all three Island County commissioners have

visited the property, the last of which occurred last week. Commissioner Jill Johnson, who represents Oak Harbor, toured the area with Minda Wicher and Island County Public Works Director Bill Oakes.

During the visit, Wicher expressed frustration that the issue has not yet been resolved and it’s still not entirely clear who will make the fix.

“I feel we’ve gone round and round about who is respon-sible,” she said.

Oakes said the Wichers can look to him.“If you’re looking for someone to blame, blame me,” he

said.The drainage system was designed to empty into a

The South Whidbey School District board of directors visited South Whidbey Elementary and Langley Middle School this week.

The purpose of these informal visits, accord-ing to the agenda, was to thank staff members for their work and to cel-ebrate the district’s suc-cesses.

Staff members also received breakfast dur-ing the meeting as a ges-ture of gratitude.

The directors first stopped by Langley Middle School Wednesday morning, and then visited South Whidbey Elementary on Thursday morning.

At the meeting Thursday, superinten-dent Jo Moccia pointed out that the multitude of successes at South Whidbey High School — including ranking ninth in the state for student achievement and ranking in the College Board’s

Annual Advanced Placement District Honor Roll — were thanks to combined efforts from staff in pre-kindergarten through 12th-grade class-rooms.

“It’s clear to all of us that it took a pre-K through 12 achievement to get that recognition,” Moccia said.

At Langley Middle School, teachers had expressed their pleasure with the success of edu-cational elements such as Common Core integra-tion, team structures and improved school spirit.

Elementary school staff members present at Thursday’s meeting remarked upon addition-al positive points includ-ing the success of the school’s garden program and increased access to technology in the class-room.

Moccia also intro-duced Julie Hadden, who joined the school board approximately six weeks ago.

Hadden noted that she had stopped by several classrooms and was impressed with the schools as a whole as well as the individual rooms.

“What really makes this facility click is what you’re doing in those classrooms… they’re fabulous, it’s alive and vibrant,” she said. “Hats off to you for your hard work.”

Famed country music star Miranda Lambert gave a $3,000 grant to the non-profit Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation through the MuttNation Foundation, according to a recent press release.

Lambert and her mother, Bev Lambert, founded MuttNation eight years ago to support shelters and other animal rescue groups focused on high live release rates (above 90 percent), exceptional volun-teerism, fiscal responsibility, spay/neuter advocacy and maintaining presence within the community, the release states.

An initiative, “Mutts Across America: 50 States/50 Shelters,” was launched through the foundation to select one shelter from each state, according to the release.

For the second year in a row, Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation was selected as Washington State’s grant recip-ient.

According to the release, organizations do not apply for funding but are selected by a board of directors at MuttNation Foundation. Members of the board con-duct extensive research to determine those who meet the criteria.

According to the press release, Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation Executive Director Charles Vreeland said, “To be recognized for the second year in a row is a true testament to all the hard work of dedicated staff and compassionate vol-unteers, along with the ongoing support of the community.”

He added that this donation “reener-gizes our uncompromising commitment” in providing quality care to shelter animals awaiting adoption.

Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation’s rate of live releases was 94.9 percent for 2014, according to the press release.

A live release rate above 90 percent demonstrates that the shelter is success-ful in its efforts to save all healthy and “unhealthy but treatable” animals in its care.

As the state combines mental health and chemical dependency services, small counties like Island County are doing some creative jock-eying to remain at the table.

“Small counties have to be diligent or we will get left in the cold,” said Jackie Henderson, Island County’s director of human services.

Island County has the advantage of being part of North Sound Behavioral Health during this integra-tion process which began with a state task force early last year.

The task force recommend-ed that similar Behavioral Health Organizations (BHO) be instated state-wide by next year which would replace already established groups

like North Sound Behavioral Health.

This may work to Island County’s advantage.

A county or health orga-nization needs to have about 60,000 Medicaid-eligible residents to ensure the pro-grams are properly funded. Island County had only 12,021 Medicaid eligible residents in November 2014 and Sea Mar, which contracts with the county for chemi-cal dependency counseling, serves only about 100 chemi-cal dependency patients, according to numbers issued by the state.

“They will never make money in Island County (alone),” Henderson said, without the assistance of partner counties. Under the umbrella of the BHO — which will continue to include Island, San Juan, Skagit,

Snohomish and Whatcom counties — the grouping contains 213,708 Medicaid eligibles.

This makes the North Sound BHO the second larg-est in the state next to King County’s 339,005 Medicare eligibles.

That will help give Island County the voice it needs to fight for necessary services, Henderson said.

Not all counties are so lucky.

At the end of 2014, the Chelan, Douglas, Lewis, Pacific, Wahkiakum and Grays Harbor counties all fell well below the 60,000 require-ment within their existing Regional Support Networks, according to state figures.

Island County is slightly ahead of the game in that it already has regional rela-tionships, according to island

County Commissioner Jill Johnson, who serves on the North Sound Behavioral Health board.

The real issue for the coun-ty is if services can be pro-vided and maintained under the new paradigm in smaller communities.

“Do we have a model that will deliver services in remote or rural areas?” Johnson said. “It’s going to come down to how the BHO chooses to invest its money. There’s a lot of unknowns.”

The state’s goal is to com-bine mental health and chem-ical dependency services by April 2016, and then further combine that with the state’s Medicaid-funded physical health program by 2020.

Under the new system, all mental, physical and chemical dependency health programs will be paid for

through new fee-for-service Medicaid programs.

Currently, the three servic-es are billed under different umbrellas and the move is intended to create efficiency and cost savings, Henderson said.

Throughout this process, Henderson said, the state is “looking at the health system and seeing how it can be improved.”

Sheriff’s Report

Fire victims get community aid

A Goss Lake Road fam-ily who lost their home to a fire Monday believes their housing troubles are over.

Charlotte Griffin said Friday morning they were expected to sign a lease on a rental property in Freeland later that after-noon, after The Record went to press. She, her husband Kenneth Griffin and their 15-year-old grandson were staying at the Harbor Inn since the fire.

The Northwest Washington Chapter of the American Red Cross helped with the bills, and the community has been extraordinarily supportive, Griffin said.

“We’ve got so many people calling to help… people we know, people we don’t know; it’s just been overwhelming,” she said.

Clothes, monetary donations, household appliances, even food has

been contributed. The Freeland Cafe gave the family a $200 voucher for meals, Griffin said.

“We want to thank everyone from the bot-tom of our hearts,” she added.

A relief fund under the Griffins’ name has been set up at Chase Bank, and monetary donations can be made there.

Help Network gets together

Members of the South Whidbey Island Help Network will convene for the quarterly meeting and roundtable discussion next week.

The Help Network is made up of a number of non-profit organizations dedicated to helping the community, from the South Whidbey Commons to Good Cheer Food Bank and South Whidbey Senior Services.

According to Shawn Nowlin, community out-reach coordinator for Good Cheer Food Bank and Thrift Stores, the meetings are a casual opportunity for organiza-

tions within the network to update one another on current projects and upcoming fundraisers or other events.

“You get a snapshot of what each organization is up to and what the cur-rent issues are involving social services,” wrote Nowlin in an email to The Record.

The meeting will take place at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 10 at the Langley Good Cheer Thrift Store in the upstairs conference room.

Unvaccinated rate higher than 10%

According to the Washington State Department of Health, several area schools have vaccine exemption rates exceeding 10 percent.

Most of those exempt cite personal reasons for abstaining from immuni-zations.

The most recent and complete data released by the Washington State Department of Health

is for the 2011-12 school year.

As of the 2011-12 school year, 16.90 per-cent of children (95) were exempt at South Whidbey Elementary; 92 of these cited personal reasons, three cited medical. Langley Middle School had a 14.40 percent exemption rate with 56 exempt students; 52 cited personal reasons and four cited medical reasons. At South Whidbey High School, 13.80 percent (73 students) were exempt; 70 cited personal reasons and three cited religious reasons. Island Christian Academy had the highest exemption rate of South Whidbey schools at 22.70 percent (20 students); all cited personal reasons for abstaining from vaccines.

More recent data for the 2013-14 school year was released based only upon counties. In Island County, 87.5 percent of all students were fully vac-cinated as of the 2013-14 school year. Of the 8.4 percent exempt, 7.51 cited personal reasons, .91 per-cent abstained for medi-cal reasons, and .25 cited religious reasons.

New benefit, wage plan set

The South Whidbey Parks and Recreation District board of directors has decided to implement a new compensation plan for employees.

The board began dis-cussing compensation options in August, and came to a conclusion at a recent business meeting.

The board adopted the step-in-grade system model which establishes top and bottom values for particular jobs. According to parks director Doug Coutts, this model will bring the district in line with other government agencies of similar size.

“This is just bring-ing us in line with what other organizations are doing,” Coutts explained in a phone interview in August, when talks began.

Employees will progress through the grades until they reach the top step, at which point they will no longer be eligible to receive raises.

The district’s former compensation had no set salary cap.

Employees will still be eligible to receive increased wages based upon cost of living changes.

The step-in-grade com-pensation model will be in place for nine years, after which board mem-bers may re-evaluate and decide to keep or change the plan.

County rolls out comp plan website

Island County announced this week the creation of a new website dedicated to the compre-hensive plan update.

The site, www.IslandCounty2036.org, was created to garner greater community feedback from Whidbey and Camano islands throughout the update process, accord-ing to a Wednesday news release.

Comprehensive plans are long-range planning documents designed to establish guidelines and policies for land use, economic development, transportation and natural resource management over the next 20 years. State law requires they be updated periodically.

The website was devel-oped by Planning and Community Development, and is envisioned to serve as the main outlet of infor-mation throughout the comprehensive planning process, including docu-ments, meeting sched-ules, and links to surveys.

Currently the county is in the process of reviewing the existing Comprehensive Plan to determine what areas of the document need to be updated. To that end, a survey is now available to help solicit information and ensure the county is focused on the areas of highest priority to its citizens, the news release said.

The survey can be found under the “Get Involved” tab on the web-site.

CORRECTIONIn the story “Wahl Road resident charged $6,000 in taxation error” in the Jan. 31 issue of the South Whidbey Record, informa-tion provided by Island County Treasurer Wanda Grone was mis-stated. Grone says the taxation billing error is actually between “him and his mortgage company.”

Robert Brown

Robert Benton Brown II died Jan. 14, 2015, in Olympia, Wash. Bob was born Dec. 31, 1922, in Sherwood, N.D., to Catherine Elizabeth “Betty” (Senner) and Ralph Benton Brown. Bob spent his boy-hood in Blaine, Wash., and later Seattle.

From an early age, Bob was fascinated by flight, and, as a teenager, he won the Free Flight Model Airplane Contest — his first project in a lifetime of design.

Bob was inspired by his professors at the University of Washington, where his favorite class was 3-D geometry. Ties were close between the UW aeronauti-cal engineering depart-ment and Boeing, and he worked college summers as a mechanic at the Renton plant.

Bob interrupted his UW studies during World War II to serve as an Army Air Force lieutenant in India, overseeing maintenance for a 100-plane fleet. He returned to Boeing and the UW after the war, graduating with a BS in Aeronautical Engineering in 1947 and earning an MS in 1950.

Boeing CEO T. A. Wilson frequently relied on Bob’s inventiveness, as he did for the B-47’s unstable pitch-up — solved by vortex generators still used on the aircraft today. Bob and his teams also made significant contributions to other foun-dational designs, including the 747 and 767 landing gears, one-piece rotating fuselage construction and the low-tail F-22 configura-tion. During his career at Boeing, Bob was awarded 10 patents.

He married fellow Roosevelt High School graduate and UW student

Betty Ann Presto, in 1947. Bob and Betty raised their five children on East Hill in Kent and vacationed on Sunlight Beach, Whidbey Island, at a cabin Bob designed and built. Useless Bay was the departure point for Bob’s count-less fishing trips with his good friend Bill Mayer; in 1961, they won the Boeing Fishing Derby.

In the seven years before his retirement in 1990, Bob served as Boeing’s vice president for product evalu-ation. He remained active in aeronautical engineering, consulting for companies worldwide, collaborating closely with his lifelong associate, John Swihart.

Bob was honored with the 1979 AIAA National Award for Design Excellence and the 1999 Aviation Week Laureate Award. In 2007, the UW Aeronautical Engineering Department honored him as Distinguished Alumnus and as one of the Diamond Award winners for “lifetime contributions to passenger jet development.”

Post-retirement, Bob and his wife Betty moved from the Seattle area to Borrego Springs, Calif. After Betty died in their 2006 car accident, Bob moved to Hoquiam, Wash., to recover. When his health was suf-ficiently stable, he returned to Borrego Springs to live independently until he was 90.

Even through chal-lenging health issues, he worked at his drafting table every day. Bob lived what he believed: Design work is never finished — or final. He will be remembered for his forthrightness, strength of character, rebellious spir-it, unconditional generosity and easy smile.

He was preceded in death by his son, David; his wife of 59 years, Betty; and his sister, Jean Smith. Bob is survived by his children, Karen Brown (David Wolford), Scottsdale, Ariz.; Gail Quigg (John), Hoquiam; Robert Brown, Alexandria, Va.; Russell Brown (Jan Davis), Los Altos, Calif; and five grand-children and four great-grandchildren.

Bob’s family is grateful for the support of Dr. Shelly Dueber, Donna and Paul Cook, and Frank and Dora Murillo.

As requested by Bob, there will be no funeral service. His family suggests memorials to St. Mary School Building Fund,

518 N. H St., Aberdeen, WA 98520, or Slab City Ministry, P.O. Box 2323, Borrego Springs, CA 92004.

Jeffrey Olson

Jeffrey William Olson was born Aug. 21, 1957, in Des Moines, Iowa, to Jim and Ora Olson and wel-comed home to Windsor Heights by older siblings Craig and Christine. Jeff was baptized and con-firmed at Windsor Heights Lutheran Church, attended schools in Windsor Heights and graduated from Roosevelt High School in Des Moines. He attended Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa, graduating with a degree in horticul-ture. Childhood vacations took the family to the East and West Coasts, visiting relatives and spending many summers at the fam-ily cabin on Rice Lake in Paynesville, Minn. Shortly after college, he moved to Southern California to pursue work and “the good life” in the Golden State.

On April Fools’ Day, 1988 Jeff was introduced to DeAnn True on a blind date. DeAnn immediately changed his life forever, and they were inseparable from that day on. They married Thanksgiving Day morning, Nov. 28, 1991, in Santa Barbara, Calif., and made Long Beach, Calif., their home.

The Olsons fell in love again, this time with the Pacific Northwest after a soggy November anniver-sary vacation in 1995. They moved to Whidbey Island on Christmas Eve 1996. Jeff commuted into Seattle for three years before his final career opportunity opened up in Coupeville, Wash., ful-filling his dream of becom-ing a full-time local.

Jeff originally pursued

a career in horticulture, which led to a progression of career shifts, ending with his becoming a ship broker. How do you become a ship broker? Jeff would answer, “Go to college and get a degree in horticulture.” He put his horticultural exper-tise to good use, though, in creating a beautiful set-ting to surround the home he and DeAnn built in Freeland, Wash.

Throughout his life, Jeff nourished his love of nature and the outdoors by sailing, fishing, camping, kayaking and traveling. He was happiest when he was with family or plan-ning trips, whether flying off to the Netherlands, Paris, Norway or explor-ing the States and British Columbia, Canada. His plans managed to include visiting domestic wineries whenever possible.

Church and community service were important to Jeff. He was active in Hearts & Hammers for many years and in Trinity Lutheran Church activities: the Wood Ministry, Men’s Breakfast Group and, with DeAnn, TLC’s Volunteer Gardeners.

Jeff was preceded in death by his father. Jeff leaves his wife of 23 years, DeAnn; her daugh-ters, Michelle True of Upland, Calif., and Kim McGowen (Dennis) of East Wenatchee, Wash.; grand-sons, Mitchell Brayford, Dennis Jr. and Riley McGowen; brother, Craig (Dixie) of Santa Barbara; sister, Christine (Charles) of Iowa City, Iowa; one niece, two nephews, grand-nieces and nephews; many cousins; and DeAnn’s extended family

Jeff went to be with our Lord Jan. 21, 2015, after a two-year battle with cancer. A Celebration of Life will be at 1 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 12, 2015, at Trinity Lutheran Church in Freeland.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memori-als be made to the char-ity of your choice or to Trinity Lutheran Church Landscape Fund, P.O. Box 97, Freeland, WA 98249; Lung/Thoracic Oncology Research Fund, Dr. Renato Martins, Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, Box 358081, Seattle, WA 98109-1023; Whidbey General Hospital Foundation — Hospice Program, 101 N. Main St., Coupeville, WA 98239.

Jay Zorich

We lost the world’s nic-est guy, a man who loved to laugh and make others laugh, when Jay Zorich passed away due to conges-tive heart failure Sunday, Jan. 25, in Everett, Wash. Jay was the son of Joseph and Beverly Zorich, born Feb. 17, 1951.

His youth was spent on Queen Anne and Whidbey Island. Jay graduated from Langley High, attended the University of Washington and served in the National Guard. He was an entre-preneur, eventually taking innate talent in the dramatic arts to appear in TV shows, commercials and films. Jay was a member of SAG and appeared in the film “10 Things I Hate About You.”

In addition to acting, Jay was adept at stand-up comedy and was a beautiful operatic tenor. He will be remembered for singing the National Anthem at many Seattle sporting events.

An Everett resident, Jay is survived by his beloved wife, Mary; son, Andy (Erika); and grandson, Corvin; father, Joseph (Vivienne); siblings, Joe (Judy, Maria, Annteresa

(Bruce), Paul (Chris), Matt and Katherine(Craig); many nieces and nephews; Uncle Sid (Marlene); and dear friends Ivonne and Mark.

Jay was preceded in death by his mother, Beverly. Son Andy com-memorated his dad’s life by saying, “RIP Jay Zorich. Gentle and loving father ... comedian, actor, opera singer ... passed away in comfort, laughing us all the way to the end. Truly the life of the party, the party in life. The earth is a little less funny today and infinity a little brighter.”

Memorials can be made to the charity of your choice or the American Heart Association. A celebration of his life will be held at 1 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 15, at the Edmonds Senior Center.

Dean Grisham

Uncle Dean was born June 17, 1926, in Gooding, Idaho. We lost our beloved uncle Jan. 26, 2015.

Uncle Dean and Aunt Eva (Seivers) married on March 10, 1952. She passed away Jan. 27, 2003.

They had no children, so all the nieces and nephews were like their own kids, including the Langley High School students in the ’60s.

He is the last of his generation in the Grisham family of seven siblings. His generation and their families gathered every July since 1954.

ResponseClipper Vacations casts support for funicularEditor,

We at Clipper Vacations have an obvious self interest in expanding our excursion tours throughout the Pacific Northwest.

As you may know, our core business relates to our nearly 29 years of unsub-sidized year-round service between Seattle and Victoria, British Columbia as well as 24 years of seasonal service between Seattle and Friday Harbor.

In addition, Clipper Vacations is a significant player in the tourism indus-try. It’s one of the largest sellers of hotels in Seattle, Victoria, Vancouver, Whistler and Portland; books more Amtrak product between Seattle and Vancouver, B.C. than anyone else; and is Kenmore Air’s largest customer.

Clipper is the only company based in Seattle that provides service to Friday Harbor with whale watching. It is also the only one that promotes and sells a gray whale excursion.

Finally, it’s the largest pro-vider of motor coach excursions to Leavenworth for the annual tree light-ing weekends.

I mention these activities in order to let you know that we are looking to expand our excursion program, espe-cially during the traditional off-season.

We have used a stopover in Coupeville for the past years for a num-ber of reasons. Some of the reasons are as follows:

Access between the dock and the town is convenient for all of our cus-tomers;

Our demographics for the gray whale excursion skew to an older group including people with disabilities;

The local community worked with Clipper to ensure that the retail busi-nesses and restaurants were open for our customers, and did not change the docking in consideration of Clipper’s promotion of Coupeville.

This year we are planning five visits to Langley. Our principal reason for scheduling these trips relates to low tides at Coupeville during these dates.

Our concern and greatest challenge

relates to the walk from the dock up the hill. We have been advised that golf carts will be available for those indi-viduals needing assistance. We are not certain that the provision of the carts will be ADA compliant.

Recently we have been advised that the community is considering an alter-native which is called a funicular. This appears to be attractive for several rea-sons. It not only could accommodate our older and physically disabled pas-sengers, but it could become an attrac-tion to other visitors to Langley.

We are hopeful that Langley’s mayor and council will favorably consider this technology.

Thank you,DARRELL BRYAN

Vaccinating children is not about choice, it’s a societal obligation

Editorial

The resurrected debate over vaccinating our children is rapidly spreading like wildfire, both in the news and over the Internet in the wake of a measles outbreak that started at Disneyland.

In sum, the national Centers for Disease Control reports more than 100 cases of measles in January, most connected to the Disneyland case.

Measles is a highly contagious respiratory virus simi-lar to influenza.

It’s ludicrous that, in this day and age, there’s any argument at all that vaccinations are not only effective, but critical to the health and well-being of our children.

Simply put, it is a societal obligation to do everything in our power to prevent the spread of preventable dis-eases like measles.

By opting not to vaccinate your child, you create the risk of additional outbreaks of a potentially fatal illness.

How many different ways must scientists prove that vaccinations do not cause conditions like autism?

In the decade before 1963, when a measles vaccine became available, nearly all children contracted measles by age 15, according to the CDC. It is estimated 3 million to 4 million people in the United States were infected each year. Also, each year an estimated 400-500 people died from the disease, 48,000 were hospitalized and 4,000 suffered encephalitis, the swelling of the brain.

According to the CDC, a single cough or sneeze will hurl the measles virus through the air in enormous viral-filled quantities. Once out of the host, the measles virus can linger on a surface for two hours. This rapidly spreading illness starts with a fever, runny nose, cough, red eyes and sore throat.

It is followed by a tell-tale rash that spreads all over the body.

An estimated 90 percent of nearby people who aren’t immune to the disease may also become infected.

The outbreak linked to Disneyland brought measles back into the public consciousness.

The CDC estimates three out of 10 people who get measles will develop further complications.

Measles is a serious disease, one that’s preventable, and this recent outbreak must serve as a reminder that vaccinating our children isn’t an option, it’s an obliga-tion.

Where there’s love, there’s life

“Love is All Around” is the title of the next Unity of Whidbey service beginning at 10 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 8, at 5671 Crawford Road.

Mahatma Gandhi shared once that, “Where there is love, there is life.” How much love are peo-ple sharing in their lives? What part does love play in their lives? Would any of them want themselves as Valentines?

Join guest speaker Jim Freeman, musicians extraordinaire Tadd CharetteNunn with Richard Choquette and the Unity Choir, and host, Sam Glass, for the service.

All ages are welcome. For details, visit www.unityofwhidbey.org.

Worship in “spirit and truth”

The Christian Science Society will hold regu-lar service at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 8, at 15910 Highway 525, just north

of Bayview across from Useless Bay Road.

How do people wor-ship in “spirit and truth,” as the Bible says they should, rather than mate-rially? This question will be the focus of Sunday’s service at the Christian Science Church.

Everyone is welcome at this healing journey to understanding Spirit, God, as the source of freeing ourselves from mundane influences.

Worship with Whidbey Quakers

“We are a people that follow after those things

that make for peace, love, and unity,” according to early Quaker Margaret Fell.

Whidbey Island Friends Meeting (also known as Quakers) holds its regular gathering for worship 4 to 5 p.m. every Sunday at the Unitarian Universalist building, 20103 Highway 525.

The group meets in silent worship together and worship may include spoken messages.

For details, visit www.whidbeyquakers.org or email Tom Ewell at [email protected].

editorials regarding pub-lic records and how they are reported in the South Whidbey Schools (SWSD). The district agrees that pub-lic records are available to anyone who requests them, and fulfills these requests.

The district reports pub-lic records requests as part of a board report. We began this practice when the Washington State School Board Association (WSSDA) advised all dis-tricts to do so. Our resourc-es are limited and focused on students/instructional programs. Recently our district spent over $400,000 dealing with a spate of pub-lic records requests and legal fees. To make records searchable/retr ievable electronically, the district will need to invest in digi-tizing the records that are now on paper. We also need a more robust way to man-age email, etc., so that they can be easily released with-out taking hours of staff time. Legislative change to fund this work should be a priority.

It seems simple, but for a small entity like the SWSD, it is not as manageable to produce records as it is for

large organizations with more manpower and capi-tal. Many documents must have names, etc., redacted because they pertain to stu-dents. We do not have an electronic program to do that, especially for un-digi-tized documents. It takes a human being to sift through records and redact data.

There is no benefit to withhold records and we do not do so. We cannot press a button and get the information requested. Some requests encom-pass thousands of pages. Districts refocus precious instructional dollars to pay for these requests.

We believe in trans-parency and are acutely aware of the right of any-one to request and receive records. The board of direc-tors followed WSSDA’s recommendations regard-ing records requests. It is vital for the public to know where district money is spent, and the board has a fiduciary obligation to pro-vide that information.

Our business is to edu-cate children in the best possible manner. When one is counting pennies and working to create extraordi-nary programs for children, all costs are carefully scruti-nized. The public should be aware that public records

requests cost time/money. The superintendent and

board want to continue to have an award-winning program, as demonstrated by our ranking of ninth in academic excellence in Washington, while at the same time being committed to all legal obligations. Our kids deserve nothing less.

Treasurer clarifies quotes in recent Record storyEditor,

William Goetz’s property tax situation was report-ed by the South Whidbey Record in its Saturday Jan. 31 edition. I would like to clarify some of the quota-tions attributed to me in that article.

I thought that I had corrected a misstatement when speaking with report-er Janis Reid on this sub-ject, but apparently I did not make my intent clear. Where the article states “title company,” it should be “mortgage company.” Mr. Goetz’s mortgage com-

pany probably did a rou-tine check on tax records and saw the outstanding bill. It was his mortgage company that extracted the amount automatically from his account. What happens next is between Mr. Goetz and his mortgage company.

The title company was not involved in the with-drawal of funds from his account. I apologize for the misunderstanding.

To be fair, Langley food trucks should pay higher feesEditor,

I think a food truck in Langley is a cool idea. I agree that paying for the use of public property is very important. I do not think $100 per year and a $100 business license is enough.

If I owned a local restau-rant and a food truck was able to park within say 75 feet of it, I’d be pretty hot under the collar knowing they were only paying $200 per year total to the city.

Restaurants pay a lot of money to exist anywhere.

Competition does breed

success, but the rent for the use of the public space is far too cheap at the $100 I saw quoted in the newspaper.

I think that a percentage of their daily gross would be a possibility, but that seems pretty cumbersome for these small businesses. A flat fee of $500 per month or $25 per day seems better.

Points to consider: • The food trucks will take away a parking spot.• They will also be highly visible, even more visible than the local brick and mortar restaurants.• The food trucks will not be subject to the same small signage requirements that the other restaurants are. • In the summer, it does rain. This means that con-sumers will park as close to the truck as possible, sit in

their cars and eat.• This will mean if the trucks are in prime areas downtown Langley, the prime parking spots that merchants need will be used by food truck custom-ers.• The food truck customers may or may not actually go into the local businesses, so the food truck customer parking issue is very impor-tant, as is the location of the trucks.

I’d recommend that each Langley city officials who is involved in this decision go to Bubba’s in Freeland at lunch time and observe the crowd, before they decide where to place these food trucks.

LETTERSCONTINUED FROM A1

Religion notes

By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record

South Whidbey’s senior night was near perfect Tuesday in a thrilling, hold-onto-your-seat finish 69-67 win over Cedarcrest.

The Falcon boys basket-ball team played their final home game of the year, barring a perfect run in the upcoming 1A District 1 tour-nament next week, which means they would return to South Whidbey for one or more matches. But it did not come without a good amount of nervous sweat on South Whidbey’s part, as

Cedarcrest whittled away a 20-point lead in the final 2:27 and had a shot to win the game on a long three-pointer that bounced off the back-board without hitting the rim as time expired.

“It was a fun one to play in,” said Falcon senior Parker Collins, who scored a team-high 21 points. “At the end, it got a little crazy.”

South Whidbey needed every basket in its final home game. The Red Wolves closed out the waning moments in what seemed to be a run-away Falcon win on a 21-2 run.

“We kind of thought we

had it in the bag,” Collins said. “We were doing stuff we normally don’t do, trying to push the ball. We didn’t han-dle it well at all, as you can see from losing the 20-point lead. But it feels good to get the win.”

All four Falcon seniors scored at least one basket and were led by the smooth shooting of Collins and the high-flying energy of Chandler Sutton.

Early on, the fast-paced play seemed to be a game of chicken, and the first team to blink was going to lose as they traded baskets and the lead.

Sutton, a hot-and-cold play-er who started the season slowly but has found his role in recent weeks, sparked the Falcons with an early break-away dunk. Every step he took toward the open basket, which started with a Collins steal and pass, the home crowd in Erickson Gym grew louder. By the time he threw down his first jam of the sea-son, the rowdy Falcon faithful were in a fury. Before the game, Sutton said he told his teammates he was going to try to dunk the ball, if he got the chance.

“I told them, ‘It’s my senior night, I’m going to try it,’” Sutton said after the game, being congratulated by fam-ily and friends. “If I miss, I miss. I’m gonna get it.”

That basket put South Whidbey ahead 15-14, but was quickly answered

by a three-pointer from Cedarcrest’s Alex Paulsen. South Whidbey’s frenetic play drew another moment of loud crowd noise when Collins got the ball at the top of the key, moved toward the free throw line, flicked the ball beyond the three-point arc to junior Donovan Miller, who hit a deep shot.

Maxfield Friedman, a Falcon sophomore, stole the ball on defense, which led to a three-pointer from fresh-man Lewis Pope, the only non-senior to start for South Whidbey, who scored 20 points and made five three-pointers.

The second quarter was not quite so busy, as the Falcons changed their defense to better challenge the Red Wolves’ sharpshoot-ers, who had hit six three-pointers already. Cedarcrest players Robert Cha and Chase Cardon combined for five of those in the first quar-ter.

Assigning Collins out to the perimeter on defense, South Whidbey negated both Cha and Gordon and the entire Cedarcrest perim-eter play. The Red Wolves did not make a three-pointer in the second quarter and were held to 12 points. Foul trouble limited Cardon, who picked up two fouls early in the second quarter.

Collins took over for South Whidbey on offense. The senior hit a pair of three point-ers, including on his first shot

of the period that also drew a foul and free throw, which he made. Showing some of his moves, Collins hit his second long-range shot after faking the ball inside, stepping to the side and drilling a three. His final basket came on a shot where, sandwiched between the sideline, baseline and a defender, Collins stepped through and launched a shot trying to draw a foul. Instead, the ball banked high off the backboard and through the net.

At halftime, the Falcons led 40-34. Through the third quarter, South Whidbey opened up its lead scoring another 14 points and fin-ishing with a 10-point lead thanks to a buzzer-beating three from Miller.

The game seemed to be

in-hand, or talon, for the Falcons after a Collins layup pushed South Whidbey up 67-46. From there, nearly everything went right for Cedarcrest which hit its shots and forced turnovers from South Whidbey.

Free-throw shooting in the fourth quarter was a struggle for the Falcons, who made three of their eight attempts. Meanwhile, the Red Wolves were extraordinary from three-point range, hitting five in the final 2:27.

South Whidbey had already secured its spot in the 1A District 1 tournament that begins Feb. 9. The Falcons are the third seed from the Cascade Conference and will face the second seed from the Northwest Conference.

Falcons survive Red Wolves’ furious rally

Ben Watanabe / The Record

Falcon senior Mo Hamsa eyes the rim for a layup against Cedarcrest senior Adam Davenport on Feb. 3.

ditch along the highway that led west to Fish Road. The problem is the ditch doesn’t actually exist and it’s not clear that it ever has.

According to Oakes, the public works official who reviewed Davido’s designs never visually confirmed the ditch’s presence. He added that doing so would have been difficult, as much of that part of the Sunny View prop-erty was covered in black-berry bushes, and that the county isn’t required to make visual inspections; it has the right to rely on engineering reports from a developer.

“We’re a small county — we can’t check everything,” said Oakes, in a later inter-view with The Record.

Furthermore, Oakes said it’s ultimately the housing authority’s responsibility to

address the problem. The agency is working on a solu-tion that would pump water back uphill, then drain into the ground through a rock-filled ditch. But Oakes said it may be asking too much.

“That’s more than we’d require,” Oakes said.

The easiest, and perhaps most affordable option, is to install the missing ditch, he said. Doing so would require an easement from the Wichers and at least two other property owners if it were to stretch all the way to the intersection at Fish Road, which is a major drain-age point for storm water and natural runoff into Holmes Harbor.

Whatever the case, it’s largely between the housing authority and the property owners to resolve, he said.

“I can’t order them [the housing authority] to go onto another person’s property and dig a ditch,” Oakes said.

Wicher said this week that

she and her husband would consider an easement, but that, “It’s not going to be free, it’s going to cost money.” Concerns about stormwater and wetlands were voiced before construction began, but a problem still arose. She said they feel they’ve been largely ignored and are now paying the price.

The Wichers worry that the county’s guarantees for a fix are empty promises, that an occupancy permit may still be granted without a real and lasting solution. She

said that’s something they simply can’t afford, and that if needed they’ll seek legal remedies.

“We have to; we’re not wealthy people,” Wicher said. “This is it, our big investment — our home. Our value has been reduced.”

“People Matter Most”

Daniel Goldsmith (360) 331-1103

Commissioner Helen Price Johnson disagreed, saying the new criteria would be contrary to the program’s intent.

“It’s a Conservation Futures fund that is created by state law to conserve open space,” Price Johnson said. “That is its purpose.”

As part of the Conservation Futures application, the review board assigns points to the proposed property based on its alignment with state and local priorities.

Johnson proposed new language that would take away points for properties with “unique economic opportunity” or that come with “noted community con-troversy.”

Extra points would also be given for “land that protects existing or future industry,” Johnson said.

While a good deal of consensus was reached, Price Johnson said she was concerned about the wording of the new criteria.

“I think we’re talking about the same thing, we’re just coming at it from two different sides,” Price Johnson said. “I think it’s arbitrary and odd to be saying that you’re going to apply and then we’re gonna tell you that it’s controversial or it’s a unique economic activity.”

Over the last few months the Island County Board of Commissioners have discussed what the priorities of the Conservation Futures program should

be. Counties are required to periodically review and update the application criteria in keeping with board priorities.

This review has not been done for more than 10 years, according to Elaine Marlow, director of the county’s general services department.

State law provides for this type of dis-cussion and revision, Marlow said.

The RCW reads, “the county must determine if the rights or interests in real property acquired with these funds would reduce the capacity of land suitable for development necessary to accommodate the allocated housing and employment growth.”

Steve Erickson, with the Whidbey Environmental Action Network, said the commissioners are taking the review process too far and may be running afoul of state law.

Erickson said he believes the board is confusing the purpose of the Conservation Futures program with that of other programs like the Comprehensive Plan and Growth Management Act.

“It’s for the conservation of land,” said Erickson, who attended Wednesday’s meeting. “It’s a completely different thing.”

Pat Powell, director of the Whidbey Camano Land Trust, said she believes the new criteria will help the county hone in on the most ideal properties.

“We need smart development and smarter conservation,” Powell said Thursday. “I think the proposals will stand on their merit. This is really look-ing at the full picture.”

Darien Jacob, 14, cruises down a Langley hill on a scooter.

roller skates anywhere down-town, including both streets and sidewalks. Bicycles are allowed on streets, but are banned from sidewalks and prompted the police chief’s request. He was adamant, however, that the other restrictions remain in place.

Marks, wanting to ensure the safety of pedestrians in

Langley, would not budge on his belief in the need for the restriction despite being asked by the council to consider some changes.

To illustrate his point, he told a story of previously being a business owner and seeing someone on a skateboard run into a woman, seriously and per-manently injuring her.

“I’m not changing my opin-ion,” Marks said. “It’s a bad idea.”

Mayor Fred McCarthy, who retired from a long career in

education, said as a former administrator he tried to allow for skating on a junior high school property. He was advised that he could allow it if he could guarantee that every person skating on school district prop-erty would wear a helmet, knee pads, elbow pads and wrist pads.

Monday’s discussion was a first reading of the proposal with no vote taken. The council is expected to decide the issue later this month.

RULESCONTINUED FROM A1

SUNNY VIEWCONTINUED FROM A1

By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record

When Allan Ament’s wife Deloris Tarzan Ament suf-fered a debilitating stroke in 2005, the routine and concept of normality that he had become familiar with were gone.

“My life had inalterably changed in that moment,” Ament recalled, adding that witnessing his wife’s pain was “devastating.”

In some ways, she had changed, though Ament said his love and respect for his best friend and partner never waned or wavered in the slightest.

“In many ways we are probably closer now than we have ever been,” he said.

In the coming days, weeks and years after her stroke, Ament and his wife of 18 years, Freeland residents, would come to find what he refers to as “a new normal.”

As a means of coping and of updating family members and friends of his wife’s condition, Ament penned numerous detailed emails. As the days passed, these communications became increasingly confessional, personal accounts.

They, along with journal entries, anecdotes and pieces of advice, make up Ament’s

memoir, “Learning to Float: Memoir of a Caregiver- Husband.”

It is Ament’s first book-length written work.

The book launch and cel-ebration will take place from 2-4 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 7 at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Freeland.

The event is open to the pub-lic and will include readings and music.

The book is available for download in e-book form and printed copies will be sold at Moonraker, Through the Reading Glass, Barnes and Noble and Amazon and at the launch party.

“’Learning to Float’ offers a male perspective — from an authentic, vulnerable, heartfelt, spiritual warrior,” wrote author Christina Baldwin of the memoir. “Allan Ament allows us into

the marriage that was and the marriage that is, writing honestly about the love that bridges through his wife’s profound stroke.”

In the book’s preface, Ament recalls his first child-hood swimming lesson. Like most beginning swimmers, he first learned to float, to relax atop the water, trusting that it would support him if he did not struggle.

He continues by explain-ing that, both in the literal and metaphorical sense, learning to float is essential for survival.

“I moved from being husband and friend to the woman I loved to being her guide,” wrote Ament. “To succeed, in fact, to survive, I would have to learn to float.”

In many ways, said Ament in an interview Wednesday, they were lucky due to the fact that Tarzan Ament was never paralyzed and had maintained the ability to speak. Like many stroke vic-tims, she had difficulty with

tasks such as walking, bath-ing and dressing herself and suffered cognitive damage which resulted in short-term memory loss and some dif-ficulty with communication.

While she was in the hospital, Ament made a daily commute to visit her. Once she arrived home, he became her full-time caretaker “without a second thought.”

“I don’t remember mak-ing that decision. That’s just what I was going to do,” said Ament. “She is my wife and she needed me, so I was going to be there for her as much as I could be.”

Working from home for the University of Phoenix made it possible for him to continue working while caring for Tarzan Ament, and the couple’s prior experi-ence caring for Tarzan Ament’s aunt had prepared him in some capacity.

It was only later, recalled Ament, that he realized that he had a choice as to whether to continue acting as caregiver full time.

“I realized it was not only my job, but my spiritual path,” he said of his decision to continue.

Ament explained that he previously had a meditation practice which he discontin-ued upon his wife’s return home from the hospital. Caring for her became his meditation and spiritual practice.

The couple moved to Whidbey in 2002 when Tarzan Ament began volun-teering with the local literary organization now known as Northwest Institute of Literary Arts, of which Ament is now board chair-man.

Ament had previously worked as a criminal defense lawyer and, afterward, as a day spa owner.

Prior to her stroke, Tarzan Ament was in the midst of working on two new books. Prior to retirement, she had worked for several years as an award-winning journalist for The Seattle Times. She is also the author of books

such as “Iridescent Light: The Emergence of Northwest Art.”

Tarzan Ament continues to write as articulately as ever, said Ament,

though she sometimes struggles to maintain focus.

Over the years, she has improved considerably.

“If you didn’t know her, you wouldn’t know there was anything wrong,” Ament said.

He is hopeful that his story can help others, par-ticularly other men, who face similar situations.

“Do it with as much grace and joy that you can bring into it. It takes a village; ask for help,” Ament advised oth-ers. “Laugh whenever and wherever you can; and take care of yourself.”
