SKSD adds propane-powered buses to fleet shot in three of her home’s windows. Cronan, who lives on the 200 block of Flower Meadows Street in Port Orchard, said she believed the attack was part of an ongoing dispute with Keehn, whom she alleges has been running a hair salon out of her home without a business license and in defiance of a city “stop-work” order. Keehn, 30, said she filed for permission from the city of Port Orchard to operate a hair salon out of her home on the 2300 block of Flower Avenue soon after pur-

during Tuesday night’s primary election, as the perceived front-runners came in third and were disqualified in their respective races. Republican Tim Matthes drew the most votes in the South Kitsap commissioner’s race, followed by Democrat Charlotte Garrido.

and pension rates along with inflation as issues. In addition to the money saved on custodians, Patton said the district will dip into its reserve fund for $1.72 million. She said that’s not all bad because the district saved more than it anticipated in its last fiscal year, which ends Aug. 31. Patton said they also will save through not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies. The board unanimously adopted the budget. Patton warned in previous meetings that the “hard decisions” likely won’t end

activities she reported as stemming from Keehn’s attempts to operate a business out of her home. Weaver said following an April 11 hearing with the city’s Hearing Examiner, certain conditions were placed on Keehn’s permit to mitigate Cronan’s concerns before she would be allowed to operate her business. “(Keehn) has addressed all but one of those conditions, with the last being the letter from the (Kitsap County) Health Department,” Weaver said, explaining that Keehn’s current sewer facilities are

There is the famous new-car smell. And then there are four new Blue Bird Corporation buses the South Kitsap School District added to its fleet after winter break that extend that scent. Or lessen it. Jay Rosapepe, SKSD director of transportation, said district officials elected to eschew traditional diesel engines for propane-powered buses with their latest purchase. He said the change came for a variety of reasons. During the 2013-14 school year, several people who lived near the transportation facility complained about bus traffic and noise. In an effort to mitigate those concerns, SKSD gained approval to park in the city’s commercial zones in May. The district also chasing it last spring. City Development Director James Weaver confirmed that Keehn received a conditional-use permit to operate a onechair hair salon out of her home, which he described as “pretty innocuous” and something that doesn’t typically reach “the level of intensive use,” as far as impacts on the neighborhood are concerned. However, since November of 2007, Cronan has filed multiple complaints with the city regarding traffic, noise and other

In addition to the quieter ride and safety features that come with the new buses, environmentalists will appreciate that they do not emit black exhaust. Also, Rosapepe expects to save money even though propane buses cost $20,000-$25,000 more and average a couple of miles less per gallon than diesels. That is because propane costs less than diesel.

The South Kitsap School District is a little closer to closing its $2.9 million deficit for the upcoming school year. Terri Patton, assistant superintendent for business and support services, said at Wednesday’s school board meeting that the district won’t replace five full-time custodians who left the district after the last school year. She said that will save the district $250,000. Patton said the deficit stems from unforeseen circumstances when the district presented its last levy to voters in 2004. She cited escalating teacher salaries

Tensions between two Port Orchard neighbors that erupted after one attempted to open a home business last year led both women to head down to the Kitsap County Courthouse Monday and file restraining orders against each other. Shelia Cronan, 49, said she filed a restraining order against Amber Keehn after returning home from a camping trip Aug. 17 and discovering pellets had been

Council approves action regarding Bay Street Pedestrian Pathway By DANNIE OLIVEAUX Editor

The Port Orchard City Council approved two items related to the Bay Street Pedestrian Pathway on Jan. 27. The council voted 6-1 for a change order and Washington State Department of Transportation supplemental agreement with Universal Field Services that would save the city $8,927. According to Public Works Director Mark Dorsey, the contract reduction is based on WSDOT’s internal audit of overhead rates that tallied $15,480, and a contract increase of $6,523 based upon a revised scope of work. Council member Bek Ashby, who voted against the item, said she supports the pathway but has concerns about what the true project costs are going to be and if there is funding plan in place. “Is the number for contraction of $3 million an accurate number and is it a fair estimate of what it is going to cost us,” Ashby asked. “And does the council

have any idea what the funding plan is going to be.” Dorsey said the original engineer’s estimate from overall design was about $3.6 million. He noted that Segments 2 and 5 were constructed with non-federal funds — as will Segment 4 this summer. “When you take the original $3.6 million, decreases of work that had been accomplished, throw in some potential cost with going back to a 14-foot wide pathway with some additional counter-levering — just from a check-and-balances value and engineering standpoint, I still think we are that same general ballpark of requesting around $3 million,” Dorsey said. He told Ashby that until the right-of-way certification is complete, the city is unable to apply for construction funding. “The plans can’t be revised or updated because we wouldn’t know what we are revising or updating to,” Dorsey explained. “We don’t know what the final plan is, so we can do a final estimate.”

Non-profit registration open for Kitsap Great Give BREMERTON — Kitsap Community Foundation and its partner, United Way of Kitsap County, invite all nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations to be part of the Kitsap Great Give. On May 5, all of the nonprofits in the greater Kitsap area will be working together to raise at least $750,000 to benefit nonprofits in our county.

When the right-of-way acquisition is complete and the plans are revised and updated, the city would know what it is applying for in the federal funding cycle of 2017-20, he said. Ashby asked the council if they were comfortable moving forward without a funding plan, and if they have a funding plan. Council member Rob Putaansuu said the funding opportunities for the pathway are greater than it would be for the Tremont Avenue project. “It’s few dollars and less competition, and the dollar amount we are looking for is smaller than the $17 [million] or $18 million for Tremont,” he said. Putaansuu said the pathway is an excellent recreation opportunity for the city. Councilman Fred Chang acknowledged that he is a WSDOT employee, has not spoken to anyone with WSDOT about the project and will not gain financially. “I am able to make a decision off the merits,” Chang said. “I do not intend to recuse myself unless any

The Kitsap Great Give is an online fundraising tool through which any person, for 24 hours, will be able to donate to all Kitsap-based nonprofit organizations that are registered for the Great Give. All donations made that day will be matched by a matching pool that has been generously donated by local businesses and individuals. The Kitsap Community Foundation encourages every eligible organization to sign up and obtain part of this matching pool. Any 501(c)(3) organization located in or serving residents of Kitsap County and

council member or member of the public feels I should, then I would be happy to step aside.” No one from the council or public asked Chang to recuse himself. Council member John Clause said he agreed with Pataansuu and that the project can be done in phases. “I feel we should move forward,” he said. The council voted 6-0 to approve a change order for an additional $5,000 for N. L. Olson and Associates, Inc. to pursue the pathway project with property acquisition and relocations. The money will be used for right-of-way plan revisions. The city and N. L. Olson entered into a contract in October 2010 for the pathway project. The change order extends the contract completion’s date to Dec. 31. Before discussion on the item, council member Cindy Lacarelli recused herself because her husband is employed by N.L. Olson and Associates, Inc. The meeting lasted only 55 minutes.

immediately surrounding areas is eligible to participate in the Kitsap Great Give. There is no cost for nonprofits to participate; it’s up to each nonprofit organization to decide how much time, energy and effort they want to invest in this one day of fundraising. Any nonprofit who would like to participate in the Kitsap Great Give can register online at www.kitsapgreatgive.org. The website also has rules/FAQ’s about the event. The application process will be simple and easy to complete but hurry as the deadline for applying is March 15.

Fire district asks for EMS levy renewal

Levy covers staffing paramedics, EMTs, equipment and supplies By DANNIE OLIVEAUX Editor

South Kitsap Fire and Rescue will ask voters this spring to renew the current emergency medical services levy for another six years. On Jan. 22, SKFR fire commissioners approved a resolution to place an EMS measure on the April 28 ballot, along with a similar measure from the Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue. The current levy, which expires Dec. 31, is 50 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation annually for South Kitsap property owners. The EMS levy covers for staffing paramedics and emergency medical technicians, equipment and supplies. “We are having to put it back our there because it provides a component of our funding,” said SKFR Fire Chief Steve Wright. “It’s at 50 cents and we are asking to keep it at 50 cents for the next six years.” He said the EMS levy measure in 2009 passed by a large margin. “It has always been highly supported,” Wright said. He noted that in past elections, levies required a super majority or two-thirds vote. “State laws have change on levies, it’s now a simple a majority,” said the fire chief. Wright said since 1976, community has grown in value and the assessed valued has increased. But since the recession, he said the assessed value is lower than in 2008. “I hope the assessed value goes up over the next six years,” he said. Wright said when state voters pass I-747, it capped the EMS levy at one percent. “They want to have a say on anything that is going to be more than one percent,” he said. “That one percent doesn’t keep up with inflation in a lot of cases.” Wright said the EMS levy is 25 percent of the district’s tax collection. “Seventy percent of our work is medical emergencies,” he said. “Everyone of us knows they could have a health issue in five minutes, be involved in a car accident or their kids get hurt.” With the $1.50 fire levy and 50 cent EMS levy, the owner of a $200,000 home would play $400 a year for SKFR services. Wright said the EMS levy would create about $3.5 million per year. “It is a big piece of our $15 million budget,” he said. “We provide as much services with the pot of money we receive. We do the best we can with the money we are entrusted with and provide a good level of service.” Wright said SKFR’s coverage has 72,000 residents in a 117-square mile area and his agency responded to 9,069 calls last year. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue responded to about 8,000 calls in 2014, added Wright.

Risky trees coming down About 160 trees slated for removal at Bloomquist Rotary Park

“A lot of them are in colonized areas where we lost a lot of trees over several decades due to root rot. Visually it should be more open but not look like a clear cut and a bunch of stumps.” – Arno Bergstrom, county forester

By DANNIE OLIVEAUX Editor

Tree cutters have been busy hand-cutting about 160 trees to reduce the chances they’ll fall onto homes and property near Bill Bloomquist Rotary Park on Madrona Drive in South Kitsap. Kitsap County Forester Arno Bergstrom said professional timber harvesters began cutting the trees on Jan. 26 and that all trees should be on the ground Jan. 30. “The trees will still need to be moved and processed for the trees that are salable,” Bergstrom said. “It’s not just a

dangerous tree operation, but a salvage operation.” He said more trees could be cut down, depending on what the crew finds once some trees are cut. “We’ll look at what we find once we cut some trees down and see what we find,” Bergstrom said. “Sometimes you can see things a lot different when you can see more of the forest.” Bergstrom said most of trees are infected with a fungus commonly known as “root rot,” but some are within range of normal disease and risk prevention. “When you have lami-

nated root rot — based on research — to remove trees within a tree length or tree length and a half,” he said. According to Bergstrom, most of the trees are 150 feet tall. “It’s hard to detect because it’s a root disease,” he said. “But you can look at foliage and see the signs if a tree is in distress or decline.” He said crews focused on Douglas firs, hemlock, cedar and red alder trees. “A lot of them are in colonized areas where we lost a lot of trees over several decades due to root rot,” Bergstrom said. “Visually it should be more open but not look like a clear cut and a

bunch of stumps.” He noted that most of the Douglas firs are between 80 and 90 years old. After the fallen trees are removed, Bergstrom and his crew will replant trees in their place. “We’re not going to replant Douglas firs in the areas we know there is root rot,” he said. “We’ll plant more cedar, red alder and white pine which is resistant to root rot.” Bergstrom has been the county forester since June 2013 after spending more than 34 years with Washington State University and its extension service. On June 30, 2012, the park was dedicated to Bill Bloomquist, father of Seattle Mariner and former South Kitsap High School standout Willie Bloomquist. The two renovated softball fields were funded by the Port Orchard Rotary and serve as home to the South Kitsap Girls Softball Association.

A Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office boat cruises the waters of Hood Canal on Jan. 26 while searching for a downed plane.

Witness says plane spinned, lost parts as it fell toward Hood Canal Pilot was 65-year-old Fox Island resident; NTSB investigating crash By CHRIS TUCKER

Central Kitsap Reporter

SEABECK — The small red-and-white airplane that crashed south of Seabeck Jan. 26 in Hood Canal was spinning, may have had parts break off in flight and sank quickly, according to a man who said he witnessed the plane fall. Jon Marker, who lives on Thunder Ridge Way, said the plane spun downward at a sharp angle near Frenchman’s Cove (near Guillmot Cove). He was in his home when he heard the plane around 12:45 p.m. “I was eating lunch, getting ready for work. I heard a plane like it was climbing. It was the motor of a plane. Then I didn’t hear anything for a couple seconds,” Marker said. “Then I looked out and I saw a plane kind of whirling around,” he said, nearly straight down. “It looked like it was spinning. It looked like it was red and white. It went behind the tree line. I figured it probably hit the water.” Then, Marker saw a separate piece fall down afterward which looked like it could have been a wing or something similar. Marker couldn’t see the impact from his home so he

called a neighbor, who lived closer and whom he thought may have owned a boat, to take a look. The neighbor couldn’t see anything in the water. “When it hit it must have sunk right away,” Marker said. He called again for rescuers to check out the crash and gave them directions to navigate the twisty, rural back roads that cover the area. “It was a very helpless feeling,” knowing that there was not much else he could do, Marker said. A driver’s license was found at the crash site and next of kin were notified. Rescue crews suspended the search for the pilot at 9 p.m. that evening. Recovery of the aircraft and remains is up to the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Department, and any further investigation would be conducted by the National Transportation Safety Board, Chief Petty Officer Sara Mooers with the U.S. Coast Guard said Jan. 27. Joshua Cawthra, an aviation accident investigator with the NTSB, said Jan. 27 that he was beginning to look into the crash and speak with witnesses. Mooers would not disclose the pilot’s identity, citing policy. But she did say the

pilot “had a residence on Fox Island” and was male. She said there are no other missing-plane or missing-person reports, and it’s believed the Fox Island man on the driver’s license was the pilot and that he was flying alone. According to the Seattle Times, the pilot was Robert Alexander Jr., 65, and the only plane missing in the area was a Van’s RV-7 homebuilt airplane which was based at Tacoma Narrows Airport in Gig Harbor. Mooers described the debris field as “fairly small,” consisting of red and white aircraft metal, seat cushions, and headsets. “Nothing more definitive than that,” she said. “We were not able to establish where the aircraft took off from.” Mooers thanked all of the responders that participated in the search, and said, “It’s sad there was not a more favorable outcome.” Lt. Raphael Sadowitz, command duty officer at U.S. Coast Guard Sector Puget Sound, said in a press release issued late Jan. 26, “Our prayers and heartfelt wishes go out to the friends and loved ones of those affected by this tragedy.” She added, “We also extend our gratitude to the good Samaritans who were quick to report the incident and the local law enforcement personnel who aided in our search.

helped ensure our ability to swiftly find the location of the crash and thoroughly cover the surrounding areas.” After receiving a call from Kitsap County 911 operators around 1 p.m., reporting a small plane with an unknown number of people on board had crashed in the waters of Hood Canal, Coast Guard Sector Puget Sound launched two MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crews, a 45-foot Response Boat-Medium crew, and diverted the crew of Coast Guard Cutter Henry Blake to the reported crash site. Other agency responders included personnel from Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office, Mason County Sheriff ’s Office, Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Office, and Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue.

He was a graduate of South Kitsap High School and went on to attend Olympic College. Norman was a proud firefighter with South Kitsap Fire & Rescue and retired in the early 1980s. Norman’s retirement didn’t last long, as he went on to work at Dahl Construction for many years and retired in 1998. It was during this point in his life, that Norman married Phyllis Lancaster in Las Vegas, NV on February 6, 1998. Norman enjoyed many interests, including fishing, camping, travel and being an avid NASCAR and Mariners fan; however, his first passion was family and his beloved puppies, Hershey and Butterfingers. Norman is preceded in death by his parents, Howard and Bernice Collier; and brother, Dale. Norman’s memory will live on with his wife, Phyllis; children, Dawn Marrion Senitz (Randy) of Port Orchard, WA, Daniel Norman Olson (Brenda) of Ridgefield, WA, Deborah Jean Culley of Boston, MA, Jeffery Douglas Keller (Andrea) of Purdy, WA, Jeannette Diane Sawyer (Peter) of Port Orchard, WA, and Joanna Denise Keller of Bremerton, WA; sister, Susan Page (Harvey) of Silverdale, WA; 10 grandchildren and 5 1/2 greatgrandchildren.

IN OUR OPINION

A few tweaks to state election laws T

he Legislature is considering a few pieces of legislation regarding elections, some more helpful than others. Senate Bill 5153 would bring some badly needed transparency to campaign donations, creating a new class of political action committee. As reported by political columnist Jerry Cornfield of the (Everett) Daily Herald last week, groups have taken advantage of the current system to shield the source of donations. The bill would require “incidental committees” to file reports with the state Public Disclosure Commission if they spend $25,000 or more on a campaign for a statewide ballot measure or office and would require identification of donors who contribute $2,000 or more. Recent political campaigns, particularly for initiatives, have seen incredible growth in spending. The campaign against I-522, which sought labeling of food products using genetically modified ingredients, raised more than $21 million in 2013. And the drive to privatize liquor sales in the state, I-1183, raised more than $20 million in 2011. With that much money flowing to campaigns, it’s imperative that voters know where that support is coming from. House Bill 1323 would do away with the annoyance of voting for ballot questions that are little more than straw polls. The legislation would scrap the “advisory” questions found on statewide ballots that seek nonbinding votes for tax measures the Legislature has already voted on. The advisory votes were a provision of Tim Eyman’s I-960, passed in 2007. But during the last two general elections, the state has spent more than $250,000 to include the advisory votes in the voter’s pamphlets. That’s $250,000 spent on advisory votes that carry little weight among legislators. Senate Joint Resolution 8201 seeks an amendment to a state constitutional requirement that initiatives not have a significant effect on the state budget. The legislation is, supporters admit, a reaction to the passage of I-1351, which now requires the state to hire thousands of teachers and other education workers at a significant cost, without SEE OPINION, A7

Moving beyond the gas tax W

ith gas prices My Turn plummeting to less than $2 a gallon, some politicians think this is the ideal time to increase state and federal gas taxes. The theory is when gasoline is expensive, voters vehemently oppose higher gas taxes; but when the price drops, motorists don’t pay as much attention. They just fill up and drive off, thankful for Don Brunell the savings. The flaw in that theory is that gas prices will inevitably climb again. But a larger concern is that the debate over fuel taxes distracts us from the real question: what is the best way to pay for road projects and bridge maintenance and reduce highway congestion? The real issue is how taxes are collected and distributed for transportation projects. Today, the federal gasoline tax is 18.4 cents per gallon and 24.4 cents for diesel. Washington State’s gas and diesel taxes are among the nation’s highest at 37.5 cents. Therefore, truckers in our state are taxed 62 cents a gallon for diesel and car owners fork over nearly 56 cents per gallon in taxes. And there’s more to come. Although not a direct fuel tax increase, Gov. Inslee’s cap-and-trade program and his proposed low carbon fuel standard will both raise fuel costs. The cap-and-trade program would cap industrial carbon emissions at a certain level and facilities that exceed the cap would have to pay money to the state. Inslee estimates the program will bring in $1 billion a year, $400 million of which would pay for road and bridge projects. Presumably, the refineries and fuel shippers covered by the program will pass their added costs on to consumers in the form of higher fuel prices. And analysts for the state’s climate change task force estimated his low carbon fuel standard would increase gas prices 93 cents

to $1.17 per gallon. Here’s the problem. Depending solely on gas taxes and carbon-based fuels to pay for transportation may have worked in the past, but it ignores modern realities. When President Eisenhower set up the federal Highway Trust Fund in 1956, the proceeds from the original three-cent gas tax built the interstate highway system. As the system was expanded and upgraded over the decades, the tax was increased in 1982, 1990 and 1993. That system worked pretty well when the price of a gallon was under 30 cents a gallon and when the only electric vehicles in Seattle were the electrified trolley buses. But the 1973 Arab Oil Embargo changed all that. Overnight, the price of a barrel of oil quadrupled. President Nixon responded by rationing gasoline and imposing a 55 mph speed limit. As Congress got involved, the auto industry began shifting to cars that got better mileage. Now, President Obama wants cars to average 54.4 miles per gallon by 2025. More fuel-efficient cars and the growing popularity of hybrids and electric cars means less gas is sold, which generates less gas tax revenue for transportation projects. The formula for funding highway and bridge construction must change; state and federal fuel taxes are no longer sufficient. Carbon fuels can no longer bear the brunt of funding our transportation system. Congestionbased funding, tolls, licensing and fees on all vehicles, including electric and alternative fuel cars, will have to pick up a greater share of the costs. Recently, the Wall Street Journal editorialized that the time has come to abolish the federal gas tax, saying the costs of transportation can reasonably be borne by the people who enjoy the benefits — a user fee of sorts. While it seems highly unlikely that Congress will repeal the gas tax, elected officials need to look at the core issues with transportation and shift away from reflexively raising fuel taxes. That just won’t work anymore. Don C. Brunell is a business analyst, writer and columnist. He can be contacted at theBrunells@msn.com.

arlier last week, I was standing at the front of the line for the checkout counter at a local bookstore. There was one man standing behind me but a few moments later, an Asian woman stepped in line behind him. The woman began calling to her young daughter — probably in preschool or kindergarten — in what I thought was a Chinese language. Pak The man standing between us “ching-chonged” her, imitating her under his breath. I’m not sure if the other woman heard him or what her reaction to the man’s mutterings was, but when I heard his gibberish, I just froze. I’d like to say I turned around and gave him a piece of my mind, but unfortunately I was just reeling from the shock of hearing something so blatantly racist — something I hadn’t experienced since elementary school. I’m not usually so easily offended, but when the man bumped into my purse, I had this visceral reaction to pull my purse in front of me, away from the man. It wasn’t because I was worried about him snatching my purse or pickpocketing me; it was because the contact made me feel dirty. I just wanted to get as far away from this man as possible.

As disturbing as the incident was on its own, the fact that it occurred on Monday — Martin Luther King Jr. Day — made things that much worse. Here was this holiday, celebrated to honor one of the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement who worked to end racism and dedicated his life to achieving equal rights for all, and here I was standing in close proximity of someone who had no qualms about mocking someone because they were different. It was King’s dream for his children to “live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Sadly, recent events in this country and around the world, as well as my experience from this week, have proved that King’s dream is still just that: a dream. As much progress as we have made in this world, we have not made enough. Our president may be black, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t faced discrimination and prejudice as a result of his race. What other president has had their birthplace and religion questioned as much as Barack Obama has — or has had them questioned at all? Newsflash: Island life on Hawaii may be a whole other world, but it is still part of the United States. I cannot accept some people’s claim that we live in a post-racial society. In the wake of the Charlie Hebdo shooting, people have been holding the entire Muslim community — all 1.6

billion of them worldwide — responsible for the actions of just a handful of individuals. But where was this call for accountability for the Catholic community to accept responsibility when story after story broke about priests and other members of the church molesting children? You cannot tell me we are all equal when a black woman has to warn her children that their mistakes can have more serious (and sometimes lethal) consequences than their non-black peers’ mistakes and then tells me it’s not a matter of fairness — it just is. A Mexican American high schooler once told me she has been met with surprise for enrolling in an advanced class — or for even just showing up to class. Do not tell me she is not being judged for being born brown. And if I get annoyed when someone walks up to me and asks — without so much as saying “hello” — where I am from, do not tell me to get over it. How would you feel if someone just looks at you and basically tells you that you could not possibly belong here? Here, in the community in which you were born, went to school, grew up and now work? Where in any of these scenarios are we being judged by our character? The sad truth is we’re not. And just as the saying about how long it took to build Rome goes, it’s apparently going to take more than 50 years for King’s dream to come true.

e are all well aware of and even likely Comments participating in the excitement surrounding the upcoming Super Bowl game. There are “12th Man” flags everywhere are blue and green colors being sported on every corner, in our schools, and in most places of work. Young and old, athletes or not, we are all united by the excitement and energy of the Seahawks’ seaMichelle Reid son and big game ahead. We are actively engaged. Imagine what that energy would be like supporting all of our young people and their studies. The importance of parent and community engagement in the schools is critical to the success of each child as well as the future success of our community as a whole. To that end, I am excited that we have the opportunity to come together as a community Saturday, Jan. 31, at Marcus Whitman Junior High School, as we ‘Imagine the Possibilities’ for our students in the South Kitsap School District, all of them — no exceptions. This event is important as the outcome will be our 2020 Plan for the district charting the strategic initiatives for the foreseeable future. In thinking about this possibility, I am reminded that we set both the example and the boundaries for our young people. How we finish is so important. Our energy, excitement, and engagement in their education are critical predictors of their success. I invite parents and community members to join the staff of the South Kitsap School District, in being the 12th person

for our students, all of them — no exceptions.

The frustration with I-1351 is understandable, but the Legislature should be careful with amendments to the constitution and with the people’s right to place initiatives on the ballot.

Last month, Tommy C’s owner Tommy Cash was told he must vacate the building located at 1501 Piperberry Way by Feb. 28. So in efforts to relocate his business, he and his wife, Ester, have started a GoFundMe.com account with a fundraising goal of $25,000. As of Jan. 26, more than $5,400 had been donat-

But because of the extensive process that comes with a move — Cash wants to find a location with a commercial kitchen in place — he is seeking an extension on his lease through September. According to his GoFundMe.com account,

Cash said he is negotiating with the bank, First Citizens Bank and Trust Co., that owns the property.

Total state employment growth highest since 1997 Staff report

OLYMPIA — Year-overyear employment growth in Washington was the highest since 1997, according to estimates released Jan. 22 by the state Employment Security Department. Estimates indicate employment increased by 82,900 jobs from December 2013 to December 2014, on a not seasonally adjusted basis, with 73,400 new jobs in the private sector and 9,500 new jobs in the public sector. Washington’s unemployment rate for December 2014 was 6.3 percent — up from 6.2 percent in November 2013 but down from 6.7 percent in December 2013. According to preliminary estimates by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Washington picked up 7,600 new jobs from November to

December, on a nonfarm, seasonally adjusted basis, due to 7,500 new private sector jobs and 100 new government jobs. Unemployment in the Seattle/Bellevue/Everett area dropped from 4.7 percent in November 2014 to a preliminary estimate of 4.6 in December 2014. The national unemployment rate for December was 5.6 percent. “While Washington’s unemployment rate rose slightly to 6.3 percent this month, the state had its best year since 1997 when it comes to total employment for Washington,” said Paul Turek, an economist with the Employment Security Department. “The state gained jobs every month except one in 2014 and experienced increases in 12 of the 13

seeking coverage under the Washington State Department of Ecology’s Construction Stomwater NPDES and State Waste Discharge General Permit. The proposed project, known as Prosperity Plat, is located at 4217 SE Horstman Road, Gig Harbor, WA, which is in the Southeast ¼ of Section 30, Township 24 North, Range 2 East, W.M., in Kitsap County, Washington. The entire site encompasses approximately 4.49 acres and is situated on the north side of NE Horstman Road approximately 650 feet east of Lidstrom Road SE. This project involves 4.49 acres of soil disturbance for residential construction activities. In addition, the project includes the construction of 36 single family residential lots, stormwater facilities, roads, utilities, sidewalks, parking, and landscaping. Stormwater quantity mitigation will include infiltration through permeable pavement facilities, a Low Impact Development technique, and infiltration through an infiltration trench. Stormwater quality mitigation will be achieved through filter sand at the bottom of the permeable pavement facility and the infiltration trench. Stormwater will be discharged to the ground through infiltration from the permeable pavement facilities and the infiltration trench. The proposal is to infiltrate runoff in the pervious pavement and infiltration trench facilities. Any overflow would sheet flow to the north into Sullivan Creek approximately 250 feet to the north. Sullivan Creek is a defined drainage that appears to have no existing problems. Sullivan Creek discharges to Port Orchard Bay 1.25 miles to the northwest. Any persons desiring to present their views to the Washington State Department of Ecology regarding this application, or interested in Ecology’s action on this application, may notify Ecology in writing no later than 30 days of the last date of publication of this notice. Ecology reviews public comments and considers whether discharges from this project would cause a measurable change in receiving water quality, and, if so, whether the project is necessary and in the overriding public interest according to Tier II antidegradation requirements under WAC 173-201A-320.

Changes at local libraries

ver the last few From the shelf months, we’ve welcomed some new members to our team at the Port Orchard Library. Those new friendly faces belong to Jaclyn Wilson, Laura Richardson, Alicia Purdum, Kathleen Wilson Lizz Oliver, Mira McClellan and Kristine Berg. In addition, the Manchester library will be bringing a new manager on board following the move of Manchester branch manager Zak Sherman to manage the Silverdale branch. Silverdale branch manager Melody Eisler accepted a position as director of the Port Townsend Library. Manchester patrons can look forward to a new branch manager in the next month or so. Until then, Ruth Bond, director of branch services, will be stepping in to help out with the day to day library operations. Berg, our new adult services librarian at the Port Orchard Library, received her MLIS from the University of Washington School of Information Science. An avid crafter, she is working with fellow Berg staff member Thaydra Richards on a new program just for crafters. “Crafternoons” will take place at the library twice per month, and all crafters are welcome to bring their crafts and come to the library on the first and second Tuesdays from 2-4 p.m. to join other like-minded folks for an

afternoon of crafting. The program is like Etsy come to life, and every second Tuesday there is an added bonus of instruction and materials being offered for a featured craft. On Feb. 10, the featured craft will be last-minute hand-stamped Valentines, so anyone can drop in and make a hand-crafted Valentine for that special someone. Love to craft, but can’t make it to the library during the middle of the day? We’re starting a new program just for you — “Crafterdark” — on the third Thursday of each month from 7-8:30 p.m. Our first “Crafterdark” will feature literary cuff bracelets — make your own bracelet and enjoy the library “after dark.” The Port Orchard Library is also partnering with Whiskey Gulch Coffee Co. starting in March to bring patrons “Books on Tap Trivia” on the first Tuesday of every month from 7-8:30 p.m. This library-run literary trivia program has been going strong on Bainbridge Island for several years and we can’t wait to start it here in Port Orchard. On March 3, we’ll debut this program — avid readers and trivia buffs, meet us at Whiskey Gulch Coffee, 2065 Bay St. Bring a team or come solo. There will be prizes and the beverage selection at Whiskey Gulch is extensive, so come thirsty. With all our new staff arriving, it’s inevitable that we’re saying some goodbyes. Join us at 4 p.m. Jan. 30, to wish Children’s Librarian Lisa Lechuga good luck as she starts her new position as youth selector for KRL. She will be in charge of purchasing all of the wonderful children’s and teen materials we have at all of the Kitsap Regional Library branches. Serena Olson, the Manchester Youth Services librarian, will help out at Port Orchard with our Friday programming until we have our new youth librarian hired. You won’t see an interruption in our numerous children’s programs. I hope to see you soon at the library.

COMMENTARY Super Bowlbound Seahawks ease pain of good friend’s death

By SHAUN SCOTT

Bellevue Reporter Staff Writer

osing someone close to you is one of the most difficult things for a human being to endure. One of my good friends, Jim Johnson, passed away due to complications from ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) on Jan. 11. He was just 36 years old. Jim was diagnosed with the deadly disease in early October. I’ve known Jim since 2007. He married Jacinda Soete, who is the younger sister of my best friend, Nolan Soete in July 2007. Over the past eight years I considered Jim to be the equivalent of a brother-in-law to me. On Jan. 17, I attended his memorial service at Rill Chapel in Port Orchard. The funeral home was packed to the brim as close to 150 people were in attendance to pay their respects. I wasn’t surprised to see so many people at Jim’s service. He exhibited an easy-going persona coupled with an ability to connect with people from a wide array of different backgrounds. On Sunday, the Soete family hosted a “Seahawks gathering” to watch the NFC Championship game in Jim’s honor. Jim was an avid Seahawks fan and his favorite player was Russell Wilson. Before the game began, Nolan emerged from his vehicle with a framed photo of Jim. “Jim will be watching the game with us today,” Nolan said. With Jim’s photo perched alongside the Soete’s gargantuan-sized flat-screen TV, we saw the Seattle Seahawks deliver an improbable, come-from-behind 28-22 overtime victory against the Green Bay Packers. Jim wasn’t there with us in a physical sense, but he certainly was with us spiritually and emotionally for arguably the greatest comeback victory in Seahawks history. It is something I will never forget. The following is a passage I wrote on Jim’s tribute wall on his online obituary: “When I think of Jim, I immediately think of the Soete family gatherings. We always had such a great time! Countless Seahawks get togethers, BBQs, birthday parties, Christmas parties and poker nights. The memories from those events will live on forever and never be forgotten. Jim was one of most welcoming individuals I have ever encountered and was the kind of person everyone liked. He always put others before himself and was the epitome of a family man. Jim’s spirit will live on forever. No one is gone as long as someone remembers them. RIP my brother.” Shaun Scott is a staff writer for the Bellevue Reporter. He can be reached at 425-453-5045 or by email at sscott@bellevuereporter.com.

Washington’s new ferries chief, Lynne Griffith, is plunging into reforms that aim to set the state’s troubled ferry system on the right course. In making her debut comments to the Legislature, Griffith called America’s largest ferry system “a marine culture that is rich with history and tradition,” but critically in need of changes and strong legislative support. “I want to take the best parts of that culture and move forward in a new direction,” she told the House Transportation Committee on Jan. 12. Griffith included labor, maintenance and funding gaps as issues that need immediate attention. And key lawmakers seem to agree. “She’s restructuring upper management and encouraging senior staff to make decisions,” said Lars Erickson, communications director at the Department of Transportation. “With that empowerment comes a higher level of accountability, and I think that’s something that taxpayers, customers and employees are really looking for.” Griffith had no maritime experience prior to signing on with Washington State Ferries, but her many years heading Pierce Transit and Vancouver’s C-TRAN gives transportation officials confidence she’s up for the challenge. “I think she’s going to make a lot of really positive changes,” said House Transportation Chair Judy Clibborn, D-Mercer Island. “I think her attitude and demeanor is calming some of the chaos of everyone running around trying to get things done. You need to have a calm hand, and we didn’t have a very calm hand during the crossover.” The “crossover” Clibborn is referring to was the time in between former Director David Moseley’s retirement last April and Griffith’s appointment. During those five months, WSF was headed by interim director Capt. George Capacci, whose managerial tactics were called into question following a series of cancelled departures and labor conflicts, as well as a complete electrical failure aboard the Tacoma vessel last July. Capacci was considered a top contender for the permanent ferries chief position. However, after members of the International Organization of Masters, Mates and Pilots wrote State Transportation Secretary Lynn Peterson claiming Capacci pushed an “anti-labor agenda” that harmed morale, Capacci withdrew himself from consideration. The letter urged Peterson hire former Pierce County Executive John Ladenburg instead, although he was eventually rejected as well. One of Griffith’s first moves as the new ferries chief was to create seven new management positions while requiring four senior staffers to reapply for their positions. Capacci’s current job — the deputy chief of operations and construction — is being eliminated. “The new WSF management structure allows us to be leaner and flatter,” Griffith said via email. “The transformation of the leadership does eliminate two deputy chief positions, but Capt. Capacci is welcome to apply for any of the new management positions.” With around 56 percent of deck, maintenance and masters staff being over the age of 55, Griffith wants to begin training as many new employees as possible to fill the spots retirees are leaving behind. Making sure new employees are properly

Six facts about WSF

1. Washington’s ferry system is not only the largest in the country, but it’s also the largest vehicle ferry system on Earth: over 10 million vehicles carried per year. 2. The ferries are Washington’s single largest tourist attraction. 3. Washington’s ferries are the single largest state contributor to carbon emissions, but an eventual conversion from diesel to liquified natural gas aims to change that. 4. Washington ferries boast a 99.5 percent reliability rating. Only one in every 200 voyages is delayed or canceled. 5. The largest vehicles in the fleet can carry up to 2,500 people and 202 vehicles. 6. There are more than 400 Washington ferry departures per day.

trained is of the utmost importance, the ferries chief noted. Coast Guard regulations require that a ferry refrain from launching if the specified number of staff are not on board. If someone doesn’t show up and no replacement is found, the trip is canceled. One of the main issues with having such a diverse fleet is that a single worker may only be trained to work on a certain type of ferry. With a new Olympic-class vessel already on the water — and two more to follow in the next two years — at least three other older boats are being replaced, and the types of vessels ferry workers are expected to operate become more consistent. Even new ships require occasional maintenance. Other than weather problems, pulling ferries out of circulation to undergo work and inspections is the largest cause of missed sailings. Griffith attributes this to not having replacement vessels to fill the void. One solution would be to add a fourth Olympic-class boat to the fleet, since the other three are replacing older boats expected to be retired soon. Those three ships the Olympic vessels replace would turn 60 within the next 10 years. With the ferry system struggling to acquire the funds to get maintenance and construction projects up and running, its success depends on finding a new revenue stream. The state Senate is currently negotiating a transportation package said to include significant increases to ferry funding, and Gov. Jay Inslee’s budget proposal includes a large transportation boost. “The decision this year will be whether to build a fourth 144-car ferry, because we have a third going onto the line now. And if you never shut down the building line, you actually get a better price per-ferry,” Clibborn said. “So that decision will be made this year, either through the new budget or a revenue package, but it will need that new revenue stream.” Inslee;s transportation budget would allocate $890 million to ferry and terminal maintenance, as well as an additional $86 million to replace the terminal buildings at Coleman Dock and Mukilteo. Both buildings are considered particularly vulnerable to seismic activity. Another $86 million would also be included if the state decides to construct a fourth Olympic class vessel. Revenue for the budget projections would have to come from somewhere, and with the governor’s budget also including a freeze on ferry fares, that source is unlikely to come from within WSF. Inslee is proposing a carbon-emissions tax to help fill the void, but whether a tax increase would pass the Republican-controlled Senate remains uncertain.

Administration, the average price for a gallon of diesel on Jan. 19 was $2.93, while propane was $2.39. The rates for SKSD — Rosapepe did not have exact figures — are different because the district signed a contract to fuel its propane buses at Ferrellgas. “We did receive a nice price break from them because they’re trying to attract customers to the service station,” Rosapepe said. “Our big hang-up was where we were going to fuel the buses. Once we were able to do the contract with Ferrellgas it was in everybody’s best interest.” The Type C category propane-fueled buses are slightly smaller than their diesel counterparts — Rosapepe said they seat 71 elementary-school students — and service routes west of Highway 16 because Ferrellgas is located in that area. As for safety, www.bluebird.com claims that propane fuel tanks are 20 times more structurally puncture-resistant than typical gas and diesel tanks.

Rosapepe, who said SKSD joins Bethel, Tonasket, Omak, Oak Harbor, Meridian, Sedro-Woolley, Bellevue, Highline, Ocean Beach and Seattle as Washington state school districts that use propane buses, added that his drivers have acclimated quickly to their new vehicles. “It’s good feedback so far,” Rosapepe said. “They like that they’re quieter and everybody loves a new vehicle.” The most significant drawback, he said, is the off-site service station. But he said the cost to build a propane station would be $75,000$100,000 and the district might not gain clearance from the fire marshal because its transportation building is located in a residential neighborhood. A district-owned propane fuel station might only make sense if SKSD plans to standardize its fleet with those buses, though. Rosapepe said he would like to gather driver feedback during the next year before he makes a recommendation on whether the district should purchase more propane-powered buses. Also, Rosapepe is not sure how large the district’s bud-

get will be to replace buses next year. He said the district might purchase some “good used buses” to replace others that are 20 years old. In January 2014, SKSD purchased a pair of 15-yearold larger buses for $2,500 from the Bremerton School District. A few months later, Rosapepe purchased 11 used buses — seven from the Issaquah School District and four from a transportation cooperative that serves the Kalama, Woodland, Ridgefield and La Center school districts in southwest Washington. Rosapepe said that purchase enabled SKSD to surplus 13 buses with an average age of 22 years. Rosapepe thinks the district could move toward a split of propane and diesel buses because the latter still are better for “longer runs and for field trips.” But he envisions a scenario where all SKSD buses run on propane at some point. “Propane and alternate fuel stations are popping up everywhere,” Rosapape said. “I don’t think there’s anything that would stop us from running a propane fleet entirely at some point in the future.”

BUSES CONTINUED FROM A1

SUPER BOWL CONTINUED FROM A1

Richard Sherman and Cam Chancellor, against the New England Patriots with future Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady, running back LeGarrett Blount, tight end Rob Gronkowski, and head coach Bill Belichick. Here’s who several Seahawk fans predict the outcome of Sunday’s game: • Mark Dorsey, Port Orchard Public Works director: Seattle 24, New England 17 — Based on the fact that Green Bay’s defense is better than the Patriots, and that Seattle only gets one brainfart game per year, Seattle’s offense will be steady and productive (best defense is a good offense) and the defense will limit the Patriots points to a manageable level. • Michelle Ried, superintendent of South Kitsap School District: Seattle 34, New England 17 — Our Seattle defense will be dominant and our offense will be focused and relaxed. A team playing together will always beat a collection of individuals. • Jesse Young, District 26 state representative: Seattle 27, New England 10 — Seattle’s defense doesn’t need to blitz or stunt to get after Brady and the NE offense, which negates NE’s ability to scheme (Belichick’s strength) an offensive advantage. NE’s defense isn’t good enough to take away both Lynch and Russell, which will eventually open up passing opportunities for the Hawks. Thomas and Sherman’s determination to “gut-it-out” and play though the pain against the Packers has only made the Legion of Boom more resolute.

• Charlotte Garrido, Kitsap County commissioner: Seattle Seahawks 21, New England 17 — The Seahawks will be victorious in a close, defensive-centric game. New England lacks a strong, offensive running strategy, relying on Brady’s unique capability to win big games solely with passing (such as New England’s 35-31 win over Baltimore with only 14 yards of running offense). Seattle has the best pass defense in the league, providing the required counteraction to New England’s strength — their passing offense. Add in Seattle’s running offense, with Lynch in motion, controlling the pace of the game — and keeping Brady on the sideline (New England can’t score if he’s not on the field). • Kathy Garcia, Port of Bremerton marina manager: Seattle 24, New England 13 — The Seahawks’ community and team spirit is infectious. I predict the 12s will fill the stands in Arizona cheering our team on to a repeat Super Bowl win. Our defense is strong and will lead the team stopping Brady in his tracks. • Kathleen Wilson, branch manager of Port Orchard Library: Seattle 38, New England 18 — I feel the game will be close in the first half. The second will basically be a blowout and the Seahawks will come out on top. • Denise Hoyt, executive director at Stafford Suites: Seattle 26, New England 17 — The Seahawks will win because they have Russell Wilson and the Legion of Boom. • Matt Murphy, Port Orchard executive director: Seattle 23, New England 13 — My crystal ball has Seattle winning. Take that to the

bank. • Jerry Childs, Port Orchard City Council: Seattle 27, New England 17 — Offense is for pretty boys, defense wins championships. • Jan Angel, District 26 state senator: Seattle 27, New England 20. • Jim Rothlin, CEO of the Port of Bremerton: Seattle 28, New England 24 — Seattle’s challenge will be dealing with NE offensive front line. Can they stop the run and get to the QB. Still think man-or-man, Seattle has more talent. • Mallory Jackson, owner of Fat Cat Gallery and Custom Picture Framing: Seattle 24, New England 20. • Lary Coppola, former Port Orchard mayor and president and CEO of Wet Apple Media: Seattle 23, New England 20 — Both teams are pretty evenly matched, but DeflateGate has kept the Patriots preoccupied all week, while the Hawks have taken the high road, stayed focused and above all that. Meanwhile, Pete Carroll also has something to prove to New England as well. • Alan Martin, Port Orchard city treasurer: Seattle 28, New England 23: The Seahawks will come out stronger than they have been in the first half, which will make the difference. I am also predicting a good halftime show. • Mayor Tim Matthes did not predict the score of the game, but said he’s been having a persistent vision that Seattle will win three Super Bowls in a row. “For that to come true, the team will need to win this game and many more next year. Therefore, my prediction is Seattle will go ahead early in the game and win by more than 14 points,” he said.

“Most of us take hearing loss as a part of getting older, or we think, ‘I can live with it.’ We frequently hear the phrase ‘quality of life,’ but most of us don’t really relate to its importance until a significant occurrence happens. I suffer from hearing loss. In the past, I did not fully realize the impact of hearing loss on my wife, family, and friends. Often times I would be nodding or just responding ‘OK,’ without fully understanding the conversation. My wife often had to repeat herself several times for me to understand. Sometimes I still have difficulty hearing all the items on the honey-do list.
