POULSBO — The Port of Poulsbo began an effort to
increase its liveaboard numbers in March 2014. Since then, it has engaged the City of Poulsbo to find a process to do so.
Port commissioners have attended City Council and city committee meetings, and met with staff city members, often finding a new process thrown into the mix. Now, another process may halt

Local fund $4K behind 2013 to date POULSBO — If you need a late holiday gift idea, or you want to balance all that you have received with some philanthropy, or you’d like another tax deduction before the year’s end, here’s a worthy cause: The Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund. As of Dec. 22, the North Kitsap Herald’s early holiday deadline, the fund was $4,196 behind the 2013 total at this same time last year. Last week, 19 generous individuals, households or organizations donated a combined $2,483 to the fund, bringing the year’s total to date to $13,764. Still, that’s behind the $17,960 donated to date in 2013. The fund helps North Kitsap residents in crisis meet basic needs and emergency expenses. In 2013, North Kitsap

Food, supplies collected for food banks, Stand Up for Kids POULSBO — The third annual Fill the Bus campaign collected more than 1,000 pounds of food for local non-profits and supplies for Stand Up for Kids. Buses parked from the end of October to Dec. 12 at North Kitsap High School and
Kingston Middle School were filled with food and supplies. At the end of the campaign, the food was distributed to North Kitsap Fishline, ShareNet and the Kingston Food Bank. Fishline received 1,017 pounds of food.
The supplies go to Stand Up for Kids, a non-profit that works to provide services to homeless and at-risk youth. Supplies included blankets, sleeping bags, socks and more. The campaign was led by the schools’ Interact clubs and ASB. The Interact Club is a community service organization supported by Rotary. North Kitsap High School librarian Mary Fox started the campaign three years ago. She See FILL THE BUS, Page A9

POULSBO — Amy Sanford said she got the courage to escape a physically abusive marriage when, during another visit to the hospital emergency room, her daughter asked her, “Mom, when is this going to end?” Sanford and her daughter escaped with the help of a pastor. A stable, supportive place to live while she rebuilt her life enabled her to return to school and earn a degree in accounting. She now works in Seattle and lives on See MORROW, Page A8

She said [the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation] Bellringer not only helps Fishline, it helps people who are having problems paying their rent or their energy bills. It could be your next-door neighbor.

IN OUR OPINION
A commitment to a better future L
ike any community, North Kitsap is a community of people from different cultures and different faiths. And yet, as members of this community, there is much that binds us together as one. We mourned together this year, and as a new year dawns we carry with us the memory of those the community lost to homicide and suicide. We struggled to pay bills together. Kitsap County’s unemployment rate dipped to 6.2 percent in October, and Poulsbo’s businesses are having a good year -- sales tax revenue generated in Poulsbo is the highest in at least five years. Yet, North Kitsap Fishline reports that as 700 households moved off its client list and on to self-sufficiency, “they were replaced by 600 more,” Fishline executive director Mary Nader said in an earlier interview. “People are getting jobs, but they’re not living-wage jobs. Three-fourths of the jobs [available] are minimum-wage jobs.” We gave to help our neighbors. Among the vehicles we used: the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund and ShareNet Neighbor Aid. We saw need and responded. A coalition has opened a severe-weather shelter in Kingston. Churches continue to open their doors for community meals every week all year long. Hundreds of families received food for Thanksgiving and Christmas this year thanks to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund, North Kitsap Fishline, St. Vincent de Paul, and local churches. We witnessed incredible generosity. A Poulsbo resident donated 2.3 acres in northeast Poulsbo for the construction of transitional homes for survivors of domestic violence who are charting new courses for their lives. The Poulsbo/North Kitsap Rotary Club and the YWCA of Kitsap County are heading the project; construction is expected to begin in June 2016. There are many more examples: Food drives organized by businesses and neighborhoods. Volunteers staffing emergency shelters. Service clubs doing what they do to meet health and social needs in our communities. As we’ve seen this year — indeed, as we see year after year — each of us matters. We each have the capacity to make sure no one falls through the cracks. When times are tough, that’s how we survive together. Yes, our communities are comprised of people of different cultures and different faiths, but we all share one thing in common: Commitment to make tomorrow better.

LETTERS Mill site cleanup costs belong to Pope Regarding the story, “Pope wants DNR to pay for more of Port Gamble mill site cleanup,” page A8, Dec. 12 Herald: These guys are a real piece of work. They obviously adhere to the current capitalist construct of privatizing profits and socializing losses, the dominant theme in American capitalism. After 150 years of logging and milling and polluting the bay, and in the process going bankrupt, they are now putting blame on the state and want us to pay for their basic financial stupidity. All their arguments are sophistry. These folks are slipperier than the eel grass they are supposed to restore — at their expense, not mine, not yours. It’s capitalism. Clean up and get out. MARK BARABASZ Hansville
Our freedom guide: the U.S. Constitution In response to the letter, “The danger of apathy in a democracy,”
page A4, Dec. 19 Herald: All low turnout elections are a concern. However, an even greater risk exists — not from people who do not vote, but from enthusiastic voters who are lacking in awareness of the history of America and the world, and wisdom on current affairs. They traditionally tend to be easily fooled by lies and promises of something for nothing. There is one safeguard that all people should use as their guiding light. Our American Constitution is the very backbone of our great nation. Even with all our failings, it should read and understood by everyone. Children, teens, adults, poli-
ticians and, yes, even you, Mr. President, would be more proud of what has been achieved, warts and all, just by referring to our history and our American Constitution. Teaching institutions are reluctant and parents should check and insist. I urge all to get more active in protecting and promoting this freedom guide. It will stimulate reliable appreciation and patriotism and, from this, voter turnout will improve — guaranteed. ALAN JACKSON Poulsbo
Impact of kindness and a second chance NEIGHBORS T HELPING
he holidays are a very busy time for all of us, and those of us in the everyday world at Fishline join the hectic holiday pace each year. Working together with local churches, we provided almost 500 Thanksgiving turkeys or hams with all the trimmings for our clients this year, and we expect to do the same for Christmas. Hundreds of area children will receive gifts under the tree through our Christmas Child program. And the steady stream of donations will keep us hopping until well after the first of the year. In the midst of so much commotion, it can be easy to forget that our work is not only about the hundreds of clients seeking our help or the lines that form or the

Our work is most importantly about the transformation that happens in a single life, the impact that kindness and a second chance can have upon the fear and anxiety that can often accompany hard times. As if to remind us of this truth, in the middle of a busy, crazy day recently, a young woman came to visit. Susan has been a client of

n December 2010, three community partners established the Kitsap Community Health Priorities. The initial Sponsor Group was led by Dave Foote, executive director of United Way of Kitsap County; Dr. Scott Lindquist, director of the Kitsap Public Health District; and Bob Cross, public relations director for Harrison Medical Center. In 2013, Kol Medina, executive director of the Kitsap Community Foundation, and Doug Washburn, director of Kitsap Human Services, Kitsap County, were added to the Sponsor Group and leadership team. The Sponsor Group provides leadership and coordination for the Community Health Improvement Process in Kitsap County.

laborative among diverse c o m munity partners, working to determine the most critical community priorities. The 2014 KCHP results found the following community issues, in priority order: 1. Adverse Childhood Experiences, or ACE’s (for example: child abuse or neglect, alcoholic or drug-addicted parent, loss of a family member to death or abandonment, homeless, etc.). 2. Mental Health (many issues due to ACE). 3. Affordable Housing and Homelessness. 4. Prevent and Reduce Obesity, especially in our youth.

For several years, United Way of Kitsap County has been moving toward becoming a Community Impact United Way. The simple definition for Community Impact, or CI, is: “Improving lives by mobilizing the caring power of the community.” KCHP has accomplished that by bringing together diverse groups of community members and organizations to review and analyze data specific to Kitsap County to determine those issues most critical to improving the lives of people in our community. From the beginning, United Way promised to strategically prioritize resources based on the KCHP results in order to advance the common good and work collaboratively with local organizations. The goal: “Work toward positive outcomes that help individuals and families lift themselves out of poverty.” Our strategic plan calls for: ■ Building resilience
against ACE’s and preparing children to enter kindergarten. ■ Keeping families in safe housing. ■ Promoting healthy lifestyles, reducing youth obesity, and helping to meet basic needs. Today, United Way is fulfilling that promise to target resources toward community priorities that will aid in building resilience to ACE’s, improve school readiness, reduce poverty and homelessness, and encourage healthy lifestyles choices, especially in young children and adolescents. We have also established a community partnership with the Kitsap Community Foundation to support the Kitsap Great Give; a partnership with the foundation, the Suquamish Tribe and the Gates Foundation to build community philanthropy; and are reaching out to other partners to educate the community on Adverse Childhood Experiences to help increase the resiliency

in our children. These are important steps forward in our evolution as a Community Impact United Way and to be more to the community than just a collector and grantor of funds. It is true when we say, “We can do more United than we ever can alone.” United Way — with its partners and the community working together to target and tackle real problems and issues — is the key to making a better life and a better community for everyone.

NK’s Livingston places 3rd at HammerHead BREMERTON — It took a two-time state wrestling champion to stop North Kitsap’s Bella Livingston during the 2014 HammerHead Invitational Dec. 19-20. Livingston won her first two matches in the 130pound weight class before being pinned by returning state champ Jordyn Bartelson of Puyallup. Livingston pinned Fife’s Alaina Valenciano in 1:41 in the first round of the tournament. The North Kitsap wrestler then pinned Sequim’s
Aylee Bennet in 3:16 to make it to the semi-finals. Bar telson pinned Livingston in 2:51 to advance to the finals. The loss pushed Livingston into the consolation bracket. Livingston went on to pin Puyallup’s Kheira Bach in the semi-finals in 3:19. She shared third place with Skyview’s Natasha Williams. Bartelson won by 9-2 decision over Kelso’s Mariah Roggow in the championship match. Bartelson won back-
to-back championships in 2013 and 2014 in the 118pound weight class during the Mat Classic. She denied Kingston’s Peyton Reece the championship in 2014.

Port Angeles boys swim team wins big against Vikes STAFF REPORT
PORT ANGELES — Double event victories by John Macias, Tristin Butler and Jay Liang helped the Port Angeles boys swim team cruise to a 116-67 victory over North Kitsap Dec. 18. “John Macias and Tristin Butler continued their collection of individual state-qualifying times,”
Roughriders coach Rich Butler said. “John earned two more state times in the 50 and 100 freestyle. Tristin added one more with his swim in the 500 free. Four more district times were achieved by fellow teammates.” Liang’s victories came in the 200 individual medley, where he earned a district qualifying time, and the 100
breaststroke. Port Angeles won 10 of 12 contested events and outscored the Vikings in 10 of 12 events. The Riders head into winter break with six individual state qualifying times. All three relay teams have qualified for state and 21 individual swims qualified for the district meet. Earning district qualify-
ing times in the Dec. 18 meet were Milo Atwater, with a win in the 100 backstroke; Kaleb Sheldon, with a third-place finish in the 100 fly; and Nathan Bock, who was fifth in the 200 free. Macias, Liang, Butler and Kody Kuch teamed to win the 200 medley relay, and Karsten Hertzog, Butler, Liang and Macias
Vikings hand Bulldogs second loss of season POULSBO — The North Mason Bulldogs were denied a conference win against the North Kitsap Vikings boys varsity team Dec. 19. North Kitsap’s Calvin Dennis scored 18 points for the Vikings. Cole Rabedeaux scored 15. Ethan Graebner added 11. The Vikings (2-1, 5-3) led through the majority of the game. The Vikings led 32-20 at the half. They returned to score 24 points in the third quarter. It wasn’t until the fourth quarter that the Bulldogs (0-2, 4-4) began to make a comeback. The Bulldogs added 27 points to their score. But an additional 13 points for the Vikings was enough to seal the win. Dennis had as many rebounds as he did points. He had six offensive and 12 defensive rebounds. He also led the team in steals and blocks. The win over the Bulldogs followed a narrow loss to the Olympic Trojans on Dec. 17. The Trojans (3-0, 7-2) won 78-75 at home. Rabedeaux led the Vikings team with 28 points. David Perry scored 19, followed by Dennis and Graebner, who each had 13. Though the Vikings kept pace, and even outscored, the Trojans through most of the game, a low-scoring fourth quarter was the Vikings’ demise. The Trojans scored 21 to the Vikings’ 13 at the end of the game. The loss was the first for the Vikings since their first game against the Bainbridge Spartans Dec. 1. The Vikings are now on Winter break. They played Bonney Lake Dec. 20 in a non-conference game. They will play in the Port Townsend Crush in the

the rules have changed,” Commissioner Steve Swann said. Miller, the port manager, added, “We were told that was the process. We were following that process, and toward the end of that pro-
cess we were told ‘That’s not the process.’ ” What the port faces now is a months-long planning department process that will carry hefty fees. “We are going to have a neighborhood meeting [on Jan. 8], which is required prior to submitting an application,” Commissioner Jim Rutledge said. “We will

decide at the next meeting whether to go forward with the process.” Part of that decision will be whether the port can afford nearly $5,000 in permit fees, as well as about $4,000 per slip in impact fees, adding up to more than $50,000. According to Poulsbo Planning Director Barry Berezowsky, the port will have the neighborhood meeting prior to submitting an application. After the application is submitted, the public will have a period of time to comment on the matter. Then a Planning Commission meeting, and finally a public hearing with
the city’s hearing examiner. The hearing examiner will make the final decision. The city’s main concern with adding liveaboards is the availability of downtown parking spaces. The port contends it has ample parking for liveaboards at its Jensen Way parking lot. A “liveaboard” is a person who lives aboard a boat full time. The port’s relationship with the city regarding the issue is unique. Other ports with marinas in the Puget Sound region are not required to seek a city’s approval to increase liveaboard numbers. But the port and the city have an
agreement from 1983 that prevents the port from making that increase. The port agreed to cap its number at 12 in exchange for shoreline space to construct a bathroom and permission to expand its dock. The port is required to approach the city for any change to that agreement. But by state law, marinas are allowed to have a number of liveaboards equal to 10 percent of its total number of slips. That makes the port’s cap 25. Currently, six port residents make use of their liveaboard status. After bringing the issue to the city in March, as stated in its 31-year-old

the power away from him,” she said. “I could stand on my own two feet.” Now, Sanford and other members of the PoulsboNorth Kitsap Rotary Club are working to increase the local availability of that type of housing. Proposed is Morrow Manor, a neighborhood of four duplexes in northeast Poulsbo that will be home for women and children who have survived domestic violence and are transitioning into mainstream life. Women and their children will be able to live there
for up to six years, while they work toward economic self-sufficiency. Residents will be in college and/or building careers. They will pay rent, based on what they can afford. Many of them will participate in the YWCA of Kitsap County’s safety net of supportive services, such as counseling, support groups, and case management. The capital campaign began this month. The goal: $2.5 million. The project is off to a good start. The 2.3-acre site was donated by a member of the Rotary Club — he’s

agreement, the port has been required to answer council member questions and submit a proposal to the council. After seven months of going back and forth with the city, council members then told the port in October that it must instead go through its planning department process and submit an application. “If we had known that you guys would be up for having an application, then we would have done that a long time ago,” Rutledge said at an Oct. 22 meeting with the council’s Economic Development Committee.

asked to remain anonymous — and ultimately will be owned by the YWCA of Kitsap County. A portion of the property will become a 1.3-acre park, with forest, walking trail and playground, that will be deeded to the city. The Rotar y Club Foundation is applying for grants and has $120,000 in cash or committed funds to provide support for YWCA client advocacy and case management at Morrow Manor for 10 years. Team 4 Engineering, and club members in the architecture, general contracting and law professions, are donating their services. “We hope to start construction by June 2016,” the site donor said.
The need The duplexes will be named in honor of Ardis Morrow, a longtime advocate for change in domestic violence laws and in DV services in the county. Morrow Manor will be one of three transitional housing opportunities in the area: Eli’s House in Poulsbo, named in memory of Morrow’s great-grandnephew, in Poulsbo; and Tersha’s House in Silverdale, named for Tersha Jo Brown, who was shot to death by her boyfriend in Sacramento in 2009. Advocates say the need for transitional housing is greater than what’s available. See MORROW, Page A9

Fox said the students learned there is a great need for support of homeless and at-risk youth. “The kids were wonderful,” she said. “It was great. I know they learned there is a great need.” According to Kitsap Community Resources, 11.3 percent of Kitsap residents live at or below the federal poverty threshold; 14.9 percent of people under the age of 18 are living below the poverty line. Based on information from the Department of Social and Human Services, 1,165 people are without housing in Kitsap. In the Oct. 16 homeless student update for the North Kitsap School District, 109 students were identified as homeless. That number is down from 156 in 2012-13. Students are considered homeless if they lack a fixed, regular and adequate nighttime residence.

There’s not enough emergency shelter either. In 2013, the YWCA ALIVE Shelter, which provides emergency housing for women and children affected by domestic violence, was unable to provide shelter or housing for 1,020 women and children because of lack of capacity. (Jackie Brown of YWCA ALIVE said she reaches out to shelters statewide when her shelter is full). In addition, women and children are remaining in the ALIVE shelter longer than the usual 30-60 days because of lack of affordable and safe housing in the county. And yet, a secure home is a key component in recovering from domestic violence. In the four years of the YWCA’s transitional home program, 95 percent had retained housing of their own by the end of 2013, and 94 percent found it easier to set and achieve life goals. TO HELP: Donations may be made out to the Poulsbo–NK Rotary Foundation (note “Morrow Manor” on the memo line). Mail to P.O. Box 1334, Poulsbo, WA 98370. Contributions are tax-deductible.

for an arrest warrant, issued Dec. 8 out of Kitsap County District Court, for burglary, first degree, and theft of a firearm.” Bail was set at $250,000. Additionally, ArmstrongNunes was also being held on a no-bail felony arrest warrant issued by the state Department of Corrections for escape from community custody, Wilson reported. Armstrong-Nunes is suspected of burglarizing a home in the 5400 block of NE Laura Loop, n the Port Madison Indian Reservation, around 10
a.m. on Dec. 5. Armstrong-Nunes allegedly entered the occupied home and became involved in a physical confrontation with the homeowner. The suspect sustained a serious injury to his hand from a large knife or sword. The homeowner later determined that several family firearms were missing, believed stolen by Armstrong-Nunes. The suspect contacted a neighboring house, asking for help, but left before sheriff’s patrol deputies
could arrive. He fled southbound on foot and was last observed at the Longhouse Texaco convenience store, 15915 Highway 305. He was provided a ride into Poulsbo by a store customer who was refueling his vehicle. The driver of the vehicle was not involved with Armstrong-Nunes, other than providing him a ride when solicited, Wilson reported. “Since Dec. 5, ArmstrongNunes has been on the move, with Villarreal, as they fled from one location to another, fully aware that sheriff’s deputies and detectives were not far behind,” Wilson reported.

In addition to the importance of the education committee, all Sen. Christine bills that Rolfes go to the floor of the Senate for a final vote must go through the Rules Committee and/or Ways & Means. “Although they aren’t in the headlines much, committees are a central part

chaser shall provide a tenant with written notice in accordance with RCW 61.24.060. DATED this 22nd day of September, 2014. PLATT IRWIN LAW FIRM, TRUSTEE, By: Christopher J.

Zen and bird watching Create the right setting to introduce nature to youth KItsaP BIrDInG By GENE BULLOCK
I
once asked a friend to explain his passion for riding his motorcycle. “If you don’t know,” he said, “I can’t explain it to you. If you know, I don’t have to explain it to you.” Devotees of pursuits ranging from stamp collecting to rock climbing can relate to his “zen-like” connection with those who share their passion. I once met a man with a world-class collection of automobile license plates.
Clockwise from left, The tiny ruby-crowned kinglet has a red crest that is seldom seen unless it’s excited; its spring vocalizations are lively and loud. The American goldfinch is a year-round visitor to Washington feeders, but loses its bright yellow plumage in winter. The brightly colored Townsend’s warbler is a prized visitor at Washington feeders. Don Willott
He was the envy of his kindred society of license collectors. I recall the first time
I went fishing. I sat with my line dangling in the water for what seemed like a tediously long time,

and wondered why people spent their time this way. But after I landed my first fish, I never wondered again. And during a pedantic force-feeding by an uninspiring teacher, I wondered what drew people to poetry and literature; but then I fell in love with words. A love for nature and wildlife may be in our DNA, but it sometimes needs a spark to light those neural pathways. Young birds have the innate ability to sing; but it’s triggered by hearing their parents sing. My labored point is if you’re introducing children to bird watching, it
pays to create the right setting. Pick a location and time of the year when birds are plentiful and easy to see. Spring birding at places like Nisqually Wildlife Refuge or Theler Wetlands in Belfair can be ideal. But a well-stocked backyard feeder is a wonderful place to bond with birds and crystallize a lifelong love affair with bird watching. Once hooked, they’ll patiently endure the numbing cold and rain that come with winter birding. Learning to identify birds from a book can be challenging. But groups like the Kitsap Audubon Society offer introductory trips for beginners that
can jump start that learning process. Starting in your own backyard makes it easy to start with a relative handful of familiar birds. Getting close up and personal with birds is made easier when you can watch them from the window. It’s like turning an aquarium inside out, with the observer seated comfortably inside while the fish feed just outside the glass. Young birds are born with the ability to sing and to fly. With nurturing parents and enthusiastic examples, it occurs naturally. With the proliferation of man-made threats, our birds need lots of friends who care.

R
eaders interested in getting a fix for science, humor and even some live music can get their fill at Poulsbo’s Liberty Bay Books in January. Author Patrick Loafman will read from his 2013 novel, “Somewhere Upriver,” at Liberty Bay Books on Jan. 4, at 2 p.m. Using his background
as a herpetologist — an amphibian specialist — Loafman crafts a humorous tale of a burgeoning scientist and an eccentric research assistant in “Somewhere Upriver.” The young scientist is thrown into a world of toxic salamanders and government conspiracies. The story takes place in Kitsap’s backyard, the Olympic National Park, where Loafman has spent considerable time as a herpetologist working for the park. He weaves his knowledge of the field and the Olympic landscape into the story, as well as a
few other fun facts, such as Haiti’s zombie mythology. Loafman also lives on the Dandelion Farm, near Joyce, on the north side of the Olympic Mountains. When he’s not studying amphibians or writing novels, he creates gourd art and gourd musical instruments such as drums, banjos and mandolins. At his Liberty Bay Books appearance, Loafman will play a kora, a 21-string harp/lute that originated in West Africa. Liberty Bay Books is located at 18881 D Front St., Poulsbo.

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves
NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

aroundkitsap Articles from neighboring Kitsap communities. For more news, read these newspapers online. BAINBRIDGE ISLAND REVIEW Application filed for retail marijuana shop: A new application has been submitted to the Washington State Liquor Control Board for a retail marijuana shop on Day Road. Evergreen, a Seattle-based company that previously tried to get a license for a marijuana shop on NE Valley Road in Rolling Bay, is seeking permission for a similar store at 7880 NE Day Road. The state is already reviewing applications for a marijuana growing and processing business in the industrial park at 8040 NE Day Road. That project is being pursued by Way Kool, Inc. The company filed for an application for the operation on Dec. 1. Bainbridge City Manager Doug Schulze told the city council at its meeting Dec. 15 that the city had been notified about the pending retail application by the Liquor Control Board and may offer comments on the application. “We are reviewing that at this time and determining how that fits with the zoning code,” Schulze said. The application for a retail license was filed by Alex Snyder. In an email to the Review, he said it was premature to talk about the application. — BainbridgeReview.com
BREMERTON PATRIOT New school district discipline tactics reviewed: The Bremerton School District moved closer to adopting new disciplinary policies during a recent school board meeting. Included in the new policy is a language change that allows schools to shift from punishment to corrective action. “The goal is to correct one’s behavior as opposed to punishing someone for their behavior,” said Patty Glaser, communications coordinator. Under Policy 3241, longterm suspensions would be limited to the school year in which the conduct hap-
pened; emergency suspensions won’t exceed 10 days or will be converted into another form of corrective action; and parents will be able to request an appeal orally or in writing. — BremertonPatriot.com
CENTRAL KITSAP REPORTER Sheriff investigates two threats at Olympic High: Kitsap County Sheriff ’s deputies are investigating two separate potential threats made against Olympic High School Dec. 17. Deputy Scott Wilson of the Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office said rumors on social media that the two incidents were from one student were unfounded and unlikely. The first incident was during a fifth-period math class. Someone left a note on one of the many school calculators that students share. “It was a threat to harm. Nothing specific, just threats that there was going to be an incident,” Wilson said. The message was not directed against anyone in particular. The second event was the same day during an emergency drill. Wilson said that during the drill a male student was overheard discussing with other students that the drill activities are probably what would happen during a real incident. The boy did not make any threats. “Just verbalizing,” Wilson said. Words to the effect of, “ ’Hey, if I were that guy …’ ” “This was overheard … it raised a bit of an alarm,” Wilson said. — CentralKitsapReporter. com
A private contractor went out on a city limb, Dec. 2. The contractor was cutting branches and limbs off of a maple tree owned by the City of Poulsbo, however, he did not have permission from the city. The action caused an uproar with citizens and city officials. Police were called to the scene, but were too late to halt the cutting of some of the tree’s largest branches. The contractor told police that he performs maintenance for the neighboring building and the tree’s branches hang over its roof, causing shade and therefore mold to grow. He said that he has pruned the tree in the past. The police report states that the tree was trimmed to an extent that it may die. The city has hired an arborist to gauge the damage and the value of the tree. The Kitsap County Prosecutor’s Office is considering charges against the contractor.

Erickson said no price or site plans have been discussed yet. “We’re entering into a negotiation for a contingency sale,” said Mayor Becky Erickson. “What happens over the next three to four weeks is that I will work with Wes Larson and Michael Brown (of Sound West Group) to negotiate the sale agreement. The contingencies will be the timeline, price and terms.” As negotiations have only just begun, Erickson was uncertain as to what ultimately would become of the property should Sound West Group purchase it. “There have been men-
tions of apartments, but I don’t know if that is the case,” she said. “I would assume that is the direction they are going because they are doing the Spyglass Hill apartments in Bremerton.” The Spyglass Hill apartment complex is a $15 million, 80-unit apartment complex under development on Bremerton’s Highland Avenue, overlooking downtown. Sound West Group is a commercial brokerage company that leases and manages properties. It also acquires and develops properties, and builds apartment, office and retail buildings. The company also dabbles in single-family housing.
In November, the city lowered the property’s price to $950,000 to help attract buyers. It was a 9.5 percent price drop from the previous list price of $1,050,000. — NorthKitsapHerald.com

in November. The 45-year lease specifies a $5,000 rent for years one to five; $7,000 in the sixth and seventh years; and the reminder of the lease at a $40,000 annual payment or 5 percent of the company’s “defined gross revenue,” whichever is greater. The new company has plans to build a $30 million racetrack on about 250 acres along Highway 3, across from Bremerton National Airport, if it can find investors to back the project. The proposed 2.4-mile road course could accommodate a variety of motorcycle and auto races, he said. In addition to the main track, the facility would include a space for a motocross track, a kart track, a clubhouse, convention center and spectator seating. Circuit of the Northwest has hired the German engineering firm of Tilke to design the track. The area, which is narrow, hilly, and has more than 130 feet of elevation change, requires a unique layout, Nilsen said. He added that the close proximity to Seattle is a plus. It is described as a 40-footwide road course, with a 2,600-foot front straightway. The closest similar racetracks are in Utah and California. — PortOrchardIndependent.com

ainbridge islanders crossing High School Road have watched this quirky structure slowly come to form over the past couple of years. What has affectionately become known as the “Hobbit House” is now finished, and its owner has plans to put it to good use. “I’m getting things cleaned up and putting stuff in the kitchen, getting it ready to go,” said Chris Whited, who built the structure on the edge of his High School Road property. “A lot of people wonder what it is,” he said. “Some people think maybe it’s shop or a coffee shop or an office building, but no, it’s a little cottage.” The cottage is now a vacation rental for visitors to the island. Whited will soon list it on the market. The vacation rental is located just outside of downtown Winslow, on Bainbridge Island. The 800-square-foot cottage, with additional 470-square-foot garage, has garnered attention from local and international press for its sloped roofs, outward leaning walls and storybook appearance complete with a waterwheel. “When I was drawing up the plans I decided to put a waterwheel on it,” Whited said. “I just like waterwheels and when I was a kid I saw a waterwheel when I went out to the coast and I liked it.” “The neighbors called it a ‘Hobbit House’ and it stuck,” he said, noting that he reminds folks that Hobbits live in underground homes. But despite the reminder, “Hobbit House” is what

has stuck. “(There was) a newspaper article in London,” Whited said. “People were complaining (over there) that it’s not a ‘Hobbit house.’” The finished cottage wasn’t what Whited initially planned. He started out with aims to build nothing more than a chicken coop. “When I started building the chicken coop I had been down in Cannon Beach. Somebody had a garden shed behind their house and the ridge of their roof sloped down to the middle,” Whited said. “I took some pictures of that, and I liked that style. When I did the chicken coop I sloped the walls out and did the roof.” Whited wanted to build and sell the coop as a fun project, but the coop didn’t sell. “I had it for sale for a while and people said if it was bigger it would make a great playhouse, and so
Come Home To Poulsbo Place II In The New Year I built that,” Whited said. “I couldn’t sell those. So I thought it would be nice to make a full-size one.” From chicken coop to cottage, locals have kept an eye on the progress, and off-islanders have journeyed to check in as well. “People are coming up from California and Nevada and said it was in their local paper,” Whited said. “If they are in the area, they stop by and check it out.” “A couple years ago the Chamber of Commerce had a tour bus on the island. People were asking about the house,” Whited said. “And they changed the route. One morning I looked out from our house and there’s a tour bus with people checking out the (cottage). The cottage has attracted so much attention it now has its own Facebook page, www.facebook. com/HobbitHouseon BainbridgeIsland.
