Steady as it goes, mayor tells town

VOL. 20, NO. 7

Scared stiff

By Megan Hansen Co-Editor

Sales tax revenue in the Town of Coupeville continues to stay steady, reflecting a pretty healthy local economy, Mayor Nancy Conard said. During her annual State of the Town Address, Conard said she watches tax revenue closely. In some areas the town is holding steady — others are steadily low. “I’m a numbers person,” she said. “I track this as an indicator of how the economy is doing.” While the town has historically collected more than $300,000 in sales tax since 2003, the town budget remains steady as Conard said she is conservative in her estimates. Several factors can cause an influx in collected taxes, and the town sees an increase in revenue when a major capital project is happening, she said. In 2011, the town collected more than $370,000 because of a school construction

Transit head resigns, Clay interim CEO By Jessie Stensland Co-Editor

The embattled executive director of Island Transit quit Friday after a tense meeting with the board of directors and an hour-long executive session. It was unclear whether the board asked Martha Rose to turn in her keys during the closed-door session, or even whether she retired or resigned. The board members voted unanimously — with Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson participating via speakerphone — to accept Rose’s letter of resignation. Afterward, Rose said she was retiring, not resigning. Rose previously said she had no plans to leave but changed her tune after the Oak Harbor City Council appointed Mayor Scott Dudley to the transit board on a temporary basis. He is filling in for Council-

Donor boosts food bank fundraiser Drama troupe team could raise $15,000 By Megan Hansen Co-Editor

Fundraising for one Harvest Fest Relay Race team is getting a dramatic boost. An anonymous donor offered to match donations up to $10,000 total for the Coupeville High School Drama Troupe. Teams are forming now for the Oct. 11 event and proceeds go specifically to Gifts from the Heart food bank. As the troupe’s sponsor for the last six years, the Coupeville Historic Waterfront As-

sociation is helping raise the money. “I sent out an email to anyone I could think of,” said Vickie Chambers, executive director for the association. “I wanted to let people know about this opportunity. “We live in a community with such generous people. It just takes that one person to do something so incredible.” Drama troupe advisor Peg Tennant said the donor is someone she knows personally but declined to comment further on how the pledge came about. In years past, Tennant said the troupe had

been fairly lax in fundraising but wanted to step it up this year. “I’m fairly confident we’ll come up with the $5,000,” Tennant said. And while $5,000 is the main goal, both Tennant and Chambers said they hope to exceed that goal. Gifts from the Heart has two major programs. The organization, which operates regular food distribution program, serves 110 families and last year it started a program

Farm Tours. She woke up Sunday morning expecting visitor traffic from a day earlier to drop off significantly like it normally does. It didn’t. “It was crazy busy,” Smith said. Smith counted just over 700 people walking through her barn at Willowood Farm on Ebey’s Prairie with the numbers almost evenly split each day. She said she can’t remember attendance being that high in the past, especially on the second day. “Sundays, you expect 40 or 50 people,” she said. Farmers throughout Whidbey showcased their land, structures, animals, products and lifestyles during the ninth annual tour. Attendance at the three participating farms on Ebey’s Prairie — Willowood Farm, Prairie Bottom Farm and Sherman’s Pioneer Farm — appeared strong with a wide representation of guests, according to Karen Bishop, a Coupeville farmer and manager of the Whidbey Island Conservation District, a tour sponsor. “The weather was just fabulous,” Bishop said. “Everyone was having a good time. I think what struck me this year is the people who came out were families, older couples, younger couples — just all over the board. A lot of people were just enjoying the opportunity to get on the

Chuck Poust works on Ebey the Scarecrow.

Where’s Ebey contest kicks off next week Ebey the Scarecrow will be popping up all over town throughout the month of October for a new promotion sponsored by the Coupeville Chamber of Commerce and the Whidbey Examiner. The historically inclined plywood scarecrow will hide out in nine different locations. Those who find him in each of his secret places might take home a prize. He will take his first post Wednesday, Oct. 1 and move to his second location late Saturday, Oct. 4. From then on, he will change locations every Wednesday and Sunday. When you find him, take a picture with him and post it to the Examiner Facebook page or the chamber’s Facebook. Entries may also be emailed to editor@whid beyexaminer.com or direc tor@coupevillechamber.com One entry per person per location. Photos submitted may be subject to use for promotional purposes.

Clues to Ebey’s whereabouts will be provided weekly in the Whidbey Examiner, chamber and Examiner websites, as well as Facebook pages. The clues to Ebey’s first two locations will be revealed Wednesday, Oct. 1. This is a fun way to get people out and about and promote local attractions and businesses, said Lynda Eccles, executive director of the chamber. Volunteers are hard at work getting Ebey prepared for his big reveal. Artists tried to depict him as accurately as possible from historical photos of Colonel Issac Ebey, the first white settler on Whidbey who famously met his death at the hands of angry Native Americans. He lost his head in the fateful encounter, but his likeness is intact. The Where’s Ebey contest kicks off a month of Halloween and harvest-related activities.

Town gifted waterfront properties By Megan Hansen Co-Editor

The Town of Coupeville’s portfolio is about to get a little bigger. Last week, town council approved the acceptance of two waterfront parcels of land on Northeast Front Street. The property, owned by Haigh and Sally Fox, is being gifted with stipulations on future development of the

property. The Foxes own a house at 101 NE Front St., which is currently for sale. The two parcels are directly across from the house. Stipulations on the gift include restricting any development that obstruct the view of the home and not to allow parking in the space. Conard said it would be difficult to have any kind of development on the property, but building beach access

could be a possible option in the future. When reviewing the offer, Conard said she learned public ownership of beach, tidelands and/or beach access is encouraged in the state. “While we have no specific plans for this area in our comprehensive plan, I can see nothing negative in

owning the land, and there may be other opportunities that surface in the future,” Conard told council. This is also not the first time land has been gifted to the town. Conard said several years ago a parcel father down Front Street was also gifted with similar stipulations.

Every little bit counts; help team get to $5K Each year the community gathers for a day of fun and fundraising for the Gifts from the Heart food bank. Teams are formed with a minimum $100 sponsorship to participate in the Harvest Fest Relay Races. Activities are food and agriculture–related and are always a secret up until the day of the races. This year’s relays are noon Saturday, Oct. 11 on the community green. All funds raised from the event go directly to the Coupeville food bank. In the previous two years, $10,000 has been raised. This year, there is an exciting opportunity for one of the teams to raise $15,000. Each year the Coupeville Historic Waterfront Association sponsors the Coupeville High School drama troupe relay team. Executive director Vickie Chambers announced last week that an anonymous donor approached the drama troupe about matching any funds raised by the team 2 to 1. So if the team raises $5,000, the donor will give $10,000. After sending an email out to everyone she could think of, Chambers quickly raised several thousand dollars. Donations are rolling in. As of Tuesday, the team had raised $3,500. Gifts from the Heart is a vital organization within this community, supporting 110 families. It is also in its second year of its Meals 2 Kids program, which provides weekend food for needy children in the school district. This program costs $5 per child, per week and there were more than 40 students supported in its first year. It’s not every day someone steps up to encourage fundraising with matching donations. The generosity in this community is astounding, and whether you donate $5 or $500, every little bit helps.

Who was watching the watchers at IT Editor, Concerning Island Transit and Ms. Martha Rose, I feel I must acknowledge this issue. I have never been a supporter of the free bus service. Nearly all the buses I see are mostly empty, other than kids riding the free bus, rather than taking the taxpayer school bus along with other people with driving issues. At a time when fuel is high and only going higher, it was just a matter of time before this house of cards came tumbling down. I’m perplexed it took this long. When you’re dealing with taxpayer money, this sort of thing will eventually happen. Where are the checks and balances for IT? Obviously there are none.

How is it possible that Rose could not know that one person in accounting was moving funds out of investment accounts to pay vendors and payroll, destroying the bus service and costing quite a few jobs? How could one person have that authority? It appears there were not enough regulations to protect this operation. Who’s watching the watcher? Until I retired, I was the general manager of the third-largest business in Island and Skagit counties with 340 employees. Accounts payable over $50 needed two signatures, the general manager and executive director. If either person was away, the signature went to the comptroller. Why didn’t the board of directors find this problem? Was there a monthly spreadsheet prepared for Rose and the board to view? If not, why? Officers of businesses are personally re-

sponsible for quarterly taxes, regardless of what kind of business it is or who the owner is — taxpayers, in this case. If this had happened to me, there would not be enough time for me to resign. There would have been an emergency meeting with the board of directors, and owners would have discharged me instantly. Now is the time to reinvent IT and start charging fares, as other transit communities do. Modify the buses with cash-handling machines. Look at ATMs, Redbox and other types of kiosks. They seem to do just fine. The previous system didn’t work, and taxpayers should be concerned, as they will have to bail out IT. Remember, nothing is for free, ever.

How to extend the growing season toni grove sowin ’n’ the trowel Though the stellar weather seems to be lingering, more and more it seems the good days are being interspersed with cooler, wetter ones. For some of us tired of hauling around the sprinkler, maybe those cool and wet days are really the stellar ones. I’ll let you decide. What’s certain, though, is that fall is upon us. Even if the calendar page didn’t alert us, the change in the slant of the sun would still nudge the plant life sur-

rounding us toward leaves turning color and ripening pumpkins, and we humans would follow nature as we must. For you veggie gardeners out there still dead set against hanging up your rakes and hoes for the year, there are several things you can do to help extend your growing season, both right now and to get a jump on next year’s planting in the spring. The simplest things to do are to use floating row covers over your new greens or make a low tunnel cloche for taller plants with plastic or metal hoops and either floating row cover or plastic sheeting. Individual plants can be protected by covering them with one-gallon milk jugs or two liter pop bottles with the bottoms cut out.

I have made mini greenhouses in the past using tomato cages wrapped in floating row cover and secured with wooden clothes pins. I have several pieces I’ve cut to fit and I reuse them every year. Clothes pins are pretty inexpensive and they come in handy for a lot of things around the house, like keeping your bag of potato chips closed while you toil in the hot sun. Something a little more permanent would be a cold frame. These are low boxes with either transparent or semitransparent lids that can be propped open to regulate the heat. More often than not, the back side of the box is taller than the front and the lid rests at an angle when

closed. This is to better make use of the light from a winter southern exposure. A cold frame is the perfect use for old windows that were heading to the dump. Just remember not to make your box so large you can’t reach what’s growing in the back. And be certain you have a dependable way to prop the lid open, too. With a plastic or fiberglass lid, there’s more forgiveness when that prop lets go. The last thing you want to do while picking lettuce is get bonked in the head with a pane of glass. In the early spring you can use the cold frame to help harden off tender starts and as a greenhouse to garden go-between. Which brings me to the epitome of season-extend-

ing: the greenhouse. Sadly, many of us lust after one, but few of us have our own. If you start doing some research, however, you’ll find that building your own is more doable that ever. Greenhouse kits and the companies that sell them abound. But even more intriguing are the many websites that offer free plans for doit-yourself buildings that use everything from old shipping pallets and repurposed storm doors and windows to thousands of plastic pop bottles stacked and threaded onto bamboo canes and stapled into frames. That’s a lot of root beer to go through on the way to ripe tomatoes, but I just may be up to the task. And don’t forget the chips!

Wolves win big in Olympic football opener Soccer team trounces Orcas Island; volleyball team looks good in tourney By Jim Waller Staff Reporter

Football Wolves cut down Cowboys for win

Coupeville found what it was looking for. Chimacum, not so much. The two schools left their respective conferences and joined the Olympic League this fall in search of a more equitable situation; in other words, a chance to win more games. In the first Olympic League contest for both teams, Coupeville walloped the Cowboys 48-24 at Mickey Clark Field Friday, Sept. 19. From midway through the first quarter, it wasn’t if Coupeville would win, but by how much. Coupeville recovered an onside kick and two fumbles and turned them into touchdowns, resulting in leads of 27-0 and 41-0 after the first two quarters. With a 40-point lead, the mercy rule was triggered and the second half was played with a running clock. Chimacum’s offense picked up in the second half as Coupeville sprinkled in a heavy dose of substitutes. The two teams traded punts to start, then the rout began. The Wolves marched 50 yards and scored on a oneyard quarterback sneak by Joel Walstad with 5:37 left in the quarter. Walstad’s pointafter kick was blocked.

Coupeville then recovered a Cowboy fumble, which began a sequence where the Wolves would score 21 points in two minutes and 14 seconds. Set up by a 43-yard Wiley Hesselgrave run, Walstad scored again from the 1-yard line. The PAT pass failed, and it was 12-0. The Wolves recovered an onside kick and began at the Chimacum 33. On the first play, Walstad passed to Bayne for a touchdown, and Walstad followed the TD by throwing to Ryan Griggs for a two-point conversion. Chimacum, again, lost a fumble. This time Bayne went 31 yards on the first play, and two plays later, scored from the 5. Walstad kicked his first of four straight PAT’s to make it 27-0. After a Cowboy punt, C.J. Smith made a nice grab on a 37-yard pass from Walstad that put the ball at the 1. Bayne scored from there. Chimacum went backward on its next possession, thanks to two Coupeville sacks. After the punt, Hesselgrave ran for 18 yards and Walstad hit Smith with a 20yard scoring strike. Walstad’s PAT kick made it 41-0 at the break. Coupeville’s lone secondhalf score was a 35-yard run by Bayne, his fourth TD. Coupeville piled up 312 rushing yards as Bayne, Hesselgrave and Lathom Kelley all averaged more than 10 yards per carry. Bayne led the way with 172 yards on 13 car-

ries; Hesselgrave had 94 yards on seven carries; and Kelley 47 on four. Walstad hit six of 11 passes for 128 yards with one interception and two touchdowns. Bayne caught three passes for 57 yards, and Smith grabbed two for 57. Bayne topped his typical all-around solid game by leading the Wolves on defense with 10 tackles and a fumble recovery. Matt Shank had nine tackles (eight solo), Kelley eight (seven solo) and Aaron Wright seven. Isaac Vargas recovered a fumble. “It was a great win,” coach Tony Maggio said. “It was nice to get the young guys some time. A great effort.” Next up is Port Townsend, the preseason favorite to win the 1A division of the Olympic League. The Redhawks (2-1) opened league play with a 22-9 win over Klahowya. “Port Townsend is good,” Maggio said. “We will show up and play hard.” Port Townsend will visit Coupeville (2-1) at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 26, as the Wolves wrap up a streak of four straight home games.

Soccer CHS bounces back for win over Orcas

Coupeville rebounded from a 1-0 home overtime loss to Bellevue Christian Tuesday, Sept. 16, to thump host Orcas Island 4-0 Thursday, Sept. 18. Bellevue Christian scored with only 15 seconds remaining in the second overtime to nip the Wolves. “This was a defining game and I know our Lady Wolves are going to take the lessons learned from this epic battle and put it in the bank,” coach Troy Cowan said. Results from those lessons came quickly as the Wolves drilled Orcas with four firsthalf goals. Mickey LeVine led the charge with two goals and an assist. Captain Erin Rosenkranz chipped in with a goal and assist, and freshman Mia Littlejohn added the fourth goal. Goalies Julia Myers and Mckenzie Meyer combined for the shutout. “We controlled the entire match, moving the ball with controlled precision and by playing Lady Wolves soccer,”

Mitchell Carroll takes off on a touchdown run, but the score is nullified because of a penalty. Not much else went wrong for the Wolves in their 48-24 thumping of Chimacum. Cowan said. “Ana Luvera continues to be solid and played the entire match, leading the team and winning the game ball and hustle award,” Cowan said. “Bree Daigneault and Kirsten Pelroy gave solid performances off the bench,” he added. The early lead enabled Cowan to give “the hardest working bench players some well-deserved playing time.” Coupeville (2-2) hosts Mount Vernon Christian (1-3) at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 30.

Volleyball Wolves place 8th in SW tournament

Coupeville finished eighth out of 16 teams at the South Whidbey Invitational Tournament Saturday, Sept. 20, improving from a 3-1 loss at Orcas Island Thursday, Sept. 18. Highlights in the tournament were shutout wins over Lopez and Seattle Christian. In the win over Seattle Christian, Coupeville scooted to a 13-1 lead as Kyla Briscoe served 12 straight points. Coach Breanne Smedley

was pleased with the defensive effort in the two wins, as Lopez and Seattle Christian failed to reach 14 points in any games. “Our defense really started to step up when Valen Trujillo (defensive specialist) had to sit out of the playoff games due to knee pain,” Smedley said. “Madeline Strasburg was a spark plug defensively and at the net,” Smedley added. “Lauren Rose grew a lot as she set the entire day.” Orcas Island (2-1) took advantage of Coupeville’s unsteady play to win 25-20, 19-25, 25-18, 25-22. “We gave up points with multiple unforced errors,” Smedley said. “We had a hard time controlling the ball on our side of the net.” Hailey Hammer had 10 kills and three blocks; Rose finished with 18 assists and three aces; Kacie Kiel had five kills, 19 digs and five aces; Trujillo recorded 21 digs; and MaKenzie Bailey added six kills. Coupeville (0-3) hosts Mount Vernon Christian (2-1) at 6:15 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 25, in a nonleague match.

Tennis Wins in singles aren’t enough

Coupeville won the top two singles matches, but Klahowya swept the doubles competition on the way to a 5-2 win in Silverdale Thursday, Sept. 18. Aaron Curtin, in No. 1 singles, and Sebastian Davis, in No. 2, picked up the wins for the Wolves in their first ever Olympic League match. The Coupeville doubles teams, all first-year varsity players, struggled against the veteran Klahowya teams, according to coach Ken Stange. Curtin won 6-0, 6-3 behind a powerful serve. “When he has both (first and second serves) clicking, it’s fairly demoralizing because it is impossible to break his serve,” Stange said. Davis’ off-season work is paying off, Stange said, and he “kept his opponent behind the baseline, placing balls deep in the court and using plenty of topspin” while winning 6-2, 6-0. The Wolves (0-2) go to South Whidbey at 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 25.

Address: WGH project bring revenue

Transit: Rose resigns, Clay takes over

From page 1 bond. “The hospital passed a very big bond,” she said. “When that construction starts, we’ll have an opportunity for money to surge through the economy.” And while the revenue increases, the town doesn’t adjust the budget to reflect those increases. “We never hire staff knowing it was one-time money,” she said. “We continue to be conservative. We’re doing pretty well in our community.” The other revenue Conard watches is tourism funds, also known as lodging taxes. One challenge Coupeville faces, she said, is that Coupeville is close enough for people to take a one-day trip. “We got to figure out is how to get people to stay another night,” she said. Revenues from Real Estate Excise Tax are consistent, but have seen little growth. REET funds are used for capital-improve-

From page 1 man Jim Campbell, who’s on an extended vacation. “They had no problem siccing me on Island Transit,” said Dudley, who has a wellearned reputation for firing people. He said he would start going after board members if they didn’t agree to force Rose out. “This is not a glitch. This is not a small mistake,” he said. “This is mismanagement at its worse.” Dudley, who may be running for re-election next year, announced this week that he spearheaded the creation of a new group, Citizens for a Better Island Transit. The first meeting was last Thursday night. Rose said she had planned on leaving Island Transit

Conard ment projects. In 2005 to 2007, the town was collecting more than $40,000 in REET. In 2008 those funds took a hit and, since then, it has collected as little as $13,000 in one year. In 2013, it collected around $27,000 in REET. “It’s nowhere the level it was before,” Conard said. “Real estate transactions took a nosedive.” In 2008, the town averaged 12 to 14 building permit applications. Now the town averages two to four. “Things have just slowed down a lot,” she said. The town is also limited in what it can collect in property taxes and must

go to voters to increase the limit. With a collection limit of 1 percent and declining property values, the town has to make up funds somewhere. This is one of the reasons, Conard said, she supports tourism so heartily and encourages business owners to sell the community. More sales tax helps make up for the property tax limit. “We don’t necessarily want them to move here, but we want them to spend their money here,” she said jokingly. “I tell people we just got the mojo right now, and we just got to perpetuate that. “I’d rather see more sales tax than ask people for more money.” The town also has some capital projects it continues to work on, including the Madrona Way project, which has been in the works for several years. Officials are also evaluating water and sewage rates for the town, which have not been increased in years.

Touchdown to great subscription savings

once the new facility was built but then decided to stay on to help weather the financial emergency that came to light this summer. The board was forced to lay off employees, cut routes and take out $2.3 million in bank loans to cover a deficit. Rose said it became obvious that her continued presence was causing a distraction. Many in the community had called for her to leave the agency. Rose said in an interview that it didn’t make sense to battle with people who had political and personal agendas. She said her retirement amidst such criticism was a terrible way to leave after 25 years but that it won’t take away the joy she’s experienced in helping to build a

nationally recognized agency. “It’s been the love of my life, other than my children,” she said. Much of the meeting was focused on Rose’s leadership and questions about financial issues. “I am amazed at this board’s patience with the Island Transit management,” said audience member Jeff Lauderdale. “Despite clear indicators of unacceptable performance, you continue to rely on your current director’s advice and counsel.” The board decided to meet next week to discuss the transition plan for management. In the meantime, Coupeville Town Councilman Bob Clay, as chairman of the transit board, is CEO of the agency.

Relays: Donor offers matching funds From page 1 called Meals 2 Kids, which provides weekend meals to low-income students in Coupeville Schools. In its first year, the program helped 42 students in the 2013-2014 school year, and the number continues to climb. “There’s more need for the food bank,” Tennant said.

“There’s more hungry children.” In just a week since the matching donor was announced, Chambers said she’s collected $3,500. Last Thursday during the State of the Town address, Chambers shared the fundraising endeavor with the crowd. “I was just so impressed,” she said. “Four people came

up to me after that and handed me checks.” This year’s relays could potentially be the largest fundraiser in its history, according to Tennant. In the event’s eight-year history, the last two years collected the most money, raising $10,000 each year. To register for the Harvest Fest Relay, go to giftsfromthe heartfoodbank.com
