A NEW NEST By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record
A new nesting space is awaiting the resident osprey of Waterman’s Field at South Whidbey High School. The birds of prey are expected to return from their southern migration in the next couple of weeks. Workers installed a new nest platform and post this week, replacing the osprey’s previous nest which weighed approximately 400 pounds and had caused the light pole upon which it was situated to bend. The new space is located in the same general area, slightly south of the field. The South Whidbey School District worked with the Whidbey Audubon Society, Puget Sound Energy and Osprey Solutions to relocate the birds’ nesting space. The post installation cost of $3,000 was funded by Puget Sound Energy; the Whidbey Audubon Society donated $600 for the new platform; and the school district covered the remaining $3,100. Osprey had first settled into their digs at South
Whidbey High School over 15 years ago, and had continued adding materials to the nest year after year. In its previous location, it was potentially dangerous to both birds and humans. Droppings of twigs and bird feces from the nest presented potential hazards to passersby, and the structural integrity of the pole was compromised by the nest’s size and weight. There was also a potential risk of the nest igniting from the heat of the field lights, which could wound or kill the birds. Brian Miller, director of facilities and maintenance for the school district, consulted with the Seattle-based environmental consulting firm Osprey Solutions late in 2014, and presented the idea to the school board in December. The company, headed by raptor biologist Jim Kaiser, provided the school district with a new, sturdy nest platform and new post. Kaiser also assisted Miller and Puget Sound Energy with the installation this week, and ensured that the new plat-
form and post will be inviting to the birds upon their homecoming. In order to encourage the birds to rebuild their nest, Kaiser placed materials from the previous nest onto the platform. Members of the Whidbey Audubon Society also attended the new nest installation, and commended the efforts of all parties. “What a nice project to be a part of,” commented Anna Swartz, a Whidbey Audubon member. Mel Walters, head of the Puget Sound Energy Avian Protection Program, said the company has successfully completed about 60 similar projects statewide. It is a move that is as beneficial for the birds as it is for the company and residents, he said, as safe relocation lowers the risk of power outages or hazards. “We’re used to doing power lines, but we do birds’ nests too,” said Puget Sound Energy foreman Todd Proudlock, joking that it was a relatively stress-free day for the crew.

Superintendent to ask board to drop identification policy By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record The days of a controversial South Whidbey School District policy to identify public records requesters online may be numbered. The school board is set to discuss a slew of records related issues next week, including a recommendation from the district’s chief to drop the identification portion of the policy. While officials would continue to report the estimated cost of fulfilling records requests, along with a description of the information sought, the names of requestors would be replaced with either a number or a letter. The meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m.
Wednesday, March 25, at South Whidbey Elementary School. In a recent interview with The Record, Superintendent Jo Moccia maintained that the intent of the policy has always been to keep the board informed about the financial resources being spent to satisfy information requests. Given that singular goal, there is simply no good answer to critics who have questioned how naming requesters helps keep school board directors educated about district expenditures, Moccia said. One doesn’t relate to the other, so she’s suggesting it be dropped. Also, the policy has become an unnecSEE SCHOOL, A5

Langley adds staff time for records By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Langley plans to remedy complex and more frequent records requests by increasing staff hours, establishing a better digital system and shifting some deputy clerk responsibilities. On Monday, the second day of Sunshine Week for open government, Langley Finance Director and Clerk Debbie Mahler informed the city council of her plan to add hours for a part-time employee to work the front desk more. In doing so, one of the city’s deputy clerks could help her with some
records requests. Mahler is Langley’s public records officer, and most of the requests will still be her obligation. “It’s not just the volume of electronic records, it’s that we don’t have a system,” Mahler said in a phone interview Thursday. “We don’t have any consistency.” Records requests can be as simple as asking for a copy of a city ordinance or as complex and broad as asking for any documents — spanning email, memos, and formal city documents — that contain certain words. In Langley, not all records
are digital so, depending on the breadth and scope of a request, it may mean going through physical pages. “The central records part of it is a challenge for any city because when you’re 100 years old you have records in boxes that no one has taken time to turn into microfilm or whatever,” Mayor Fred McCarthy said in a phone interview Friday morning. Having already budgeted for the change, Mahler told the council she would add 12 hours to a part-time employee, former police chief Bob SEE RECORDS, A5

Hospital nurse case will proceed to trial, court decides Judge rebukes prosecutor for talking to newspaper By JESSIE STENSLAND South Whidbey Record The prosecutor’s case against the chief nursing officer at Whidbey General Hospital is moving forward to a trial on April 2. Island County District Court Judge Bill Hawkins ruled against the defense attorney’s motion to dismiss the case against Linda Gipson, who is facing a fourth-degree assault charge for allegedly assaulting a patient in May of 2014. At the same time, Hawkins found that the attorney’s claim of prosecutorial misconduct was not frivolous — as the deputy prosecutor contended — but that the actions did not rise to a level to warrant dismissal. Hawkins was especially critical of Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks for making comments to the newspaper about the case, saying it was “quite concerning.” “It was not the kind of conduct the court would like to see in the future,” he said. “If it occurs in the future, the court would not hesitate to take action.” Hawkins hasn’t made a decision yet on whether a video taken of the alleged victim earlier on the day of the assault can be played during the trial. Hawkins watched the video, which was surreptitiously taken by a nurse’s aide, in order to determine if

She is accused of assaulting a patient. the recording of the patient moaning and calling out for help while strapped to a bed in a room by herself constitutes a private conversation under the law. If it was private, it might be considered an illegal recording and not admissible. The woman was suffering from mental health issues and had been restrained in the bed at Whidbey General Hospital for days, according to court records. In the recording, she is seen restrained and calling out that she wants to get her “needs met” and that the hospital wasn’t the right place for someone with mental illness.

the room and to whom she was calling out, in order to determine if it was meant as a private conversation. Gipson’s attor ney, Andrew Schwarz of Seattle, made extensive claims about improprieties on the part of Coupeville Marshal Rick Norrie, Deputy Prosecutor Jacqueline Lawrence and Banks. Schwarz argued that comments Banks made to the newspaper were violations of the code of professional conduct and have poisoned the jury pool. He also faulted the newspaper for reporting on public documents and public court
hearings. Hawkins agreed that he was troubled by the statements that Banks made. Hawkins read from a January story that ran in The South Whidbey Record and the Whidbey NewsTimes in which Banks is quoted extensively. In the story, Banks was critical of the hospital administration for allegedly shielding the investigation of Gipson’s conduct behind a secretive “quality assurance” provision, telling inconsistent stories on the stand and handling misconduct allegations differently depending on the employee. He
accused the administrators politically motivated in going after her. of “cronyism.” Lawrence argued that Hawkins pointed to Rule 3.8, which is “the special the newspaper articles are responsibilities of a pros- not likely to taint the jury ecutor.” It states that pros- pool.

CLINTON None injured by house fire A fire significantly damaged a Clinton home Thursday afternoon. South Whidbey Fire/ EMS firefighters responded to reports of a home on fire on Central Avenue in Clinton, less than 500 feet from the fire protection district’s Clinton station. Firefighters responded quickly to knock down the flames that Deputy Chief Jon Beck said may have started in an upstairs
bedroom. A woman and two children were home at the time, he said, and all escaped unscathed. Within minutes, the blaze was extinguished and firefighters spent nearly an hour checking for flare ups and securing the two-story home with cedar siding. “The whole upstairs has significant damage,” said Beck, adding that there was smoke damage throughout both levels of the home. From the street, the back upper corner of the house was visibly charred. A haze covered Clinton’s
commercial core for about 30 minutes during the fire, reaching as far north as Bob Galbreath Road. The first fire truck to arrive ran out of water while running two hoses to attack the flames. A second truck connected to a hydrant at the end of the block to continue the flow. Beck said 18 firefighters responded to the call. Neighbors and onlookers peered over fences, from porches and windows as the fire was extinguished.

The workers began at around 7:30 a.m. Thursday and continued working through Friday morning. Kaiser noted that osprey have been nesting upon manmade structures since 1905, when they made their home atop a telegraph pole, prompting area residents to provide them with a platform fashioned from a wagon wheel to prevent the pole from toppling. The nest platform provided by Osprey Solutions is composed of lightweight, high-strength aluminum alloy supported by a frame of angle aluminum. The bottom is made of a lattice of plastic and a four-inch plastic border. A cedar perch, situated downwind and parallel to the nest area, provides a safe place for the mature osprey to guard their nestlings from aerial predators. An anti-predator guard is situated on the pole about 10 feet off the ground in order to prevent ground predators from climbing to the nest. “We’re optimistic that it’ll go well and the birds will like their new home, and their new view,” said Miller. Miller and others will inspect the nest periodically to remove any materials that may harm the birds, such as fishing wire. In order to prevent osprey or other birds from nesting on any of the light poles in the future, the crew installed nest inhibitors. According to Miller and Swartz, students at the high school are enthused at the idea of eventually procuring a web camera to situate on the post near the nest, in order to learn more about the bird’s behavior. The district and Whidbey Audubon Society have been unable to purchase one as of yet, but will accept a donation if anyone in the community would like to contribute.
Herzberg, to cover some front desk duties. That will allow deputy clerk Cheryl Knighton to set up a system of naming and labeling and to instruct employees on a simpler way of identifying and saving documents. Currently, not all digital files and documents are saved on the city’s network. When a request comes in, such as one Mahler is working on now that asked for all of the city’s financial reports and budgets between 2008 and 2015, she has to go to each computer to look for documents that may pertain to the request, print them out and assemble them. “That’s just a lot of sitting at the copier scanning,” she said. “They’re a pain in the butt, but it’s information that the public is entitled to and we want to get it to them, we just need an easier way,” she added. The staffing change was already budgeted for 2015. Mahler told the council she expected the increased

essary headache, resulting in complaints from open government advocates, additional records requests and objections from parents who are threatening legal action for alleged breaches of student privacy laws, all of which have been covered in a series of newspaper stories. It’s taking away from her duties as superintendent. “I’ve got important things that really need to be done, and this is distracting,” Moccia said. In December, district officials began including in online school board agendas a specially created document that named requesters, the information they asked for, and the time and estimated cost of fulfilling the request. Officials claimed it was in response to rising legal fees associated with records requests. The policy quickly came under fire, however, as a retaliatory measure against Eric Hood, a former teacher who has sued the district for alleged records violations and was subsequently labeled
hours, which will bump Herzberg from 10 to 22 hours per week starting April 1, to cost $11,500. No other positions or departments are impacted by the staffing increase because it was included in this year’s budget. Mahler expected she would need to keep the positions through the year. The mayor, despite Mahler informing the council that Langley used to have a position to deal with records before the recession, said the city would not add a full-time position solely devoted to records requests. “What we’ve added should be the right staffing level to handle what disclosure requests may come in in the future,” McCarthy said. Langley will also look into how it can better host public documents. Mahler said the city has discussed setting up a public computer from which people can come to city hall to search records. The city has not, however, gone so far as to investigate what future record-keeping software or a public computer terminal may cost.
by school board members and officials as an abusive requester. He is blamed for racking up about $400,000 in legal fees. Hood, who has declined requests for comment since January, released a statement this week noting a 2011 email in which Moccia committed to an environment of transparency and strict compliance with the state Open Public Records Act. “Four years and hundreds of thousands of squandered dollars later, our school district leaders may yet learn to respect student privacy, be transparent, and act civilly, but only if compelled by law,” wrote Hood, in the statement.

request on the district’s online document was a violation of the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, said removing names is a step in the right direction. The district has already changed the description of his request to say only “student records.” He contends, however, all the entries from 2014 should be removed entirely. The first document online listed requests over the past calendar year, but only one of Hood’s and those in December contained cost or time estimates. School officials say the inconsistency is because that information largely wasn’t being tracked until the document went live, but Helpenstell said that if financial information is all the district

Saturday, March 21, 2015 • The South Whidbey Record
Editorial City, schools headed in the right direction
Today is the last day of Sunshine Week, a nationwide celebration created by journalists to shed light on our country’s state and federal freedom of information laws. And if you haven’t noticed The Record has been writing quite a bit about transparency recently. In this very issue are two stories about officials at two Whidbey public entities — Langley and the South Whidbey School District — who are looking to improve their responsiveness, their efficiency and dedication to the Washington Open Public Records Act. For this, our hats are off to them. At the school district, directors are expected to consider several improvements in transparency next week, from resuming the practice of recording board meetings and posting them online to administrative changes that could enhance staff’s efficiency in responding to records requests. And perhaps most importantly, the board will consider a change in a controversial policy of identifying requesters on the district’s website. A description of the information sought and an estimate of the time and cost to fulfill the request would remain but names would be replaced with a non-identifier, such as a number or a letter. District officials have maintained the practice was meant to keep the board informed about the cost of public records requests, which hover around $400,000 since 2011. But with those expenses revolving nearly entirely around a single person, one who’s been labeled an abusive requester by school leaders, critics have rightly cried foul, saying the policy appears more like retaliation than a means of keeping the board informed. Indeed, it’s hard to claim this was about finances when names do absolutely nothing to communicate matters of dollars and cents. Under state rules, the names of requesters are in fact public records, so it seems backward to argue that the district should stop broadcasting those details in the name of transparency. But that’s just what needs to happen. The board’s original intent is irrelevant. What matters is that people feel less free to ask for information, and a policy that does that is contrary to the spirit of our sunshine laws. Langley’s situation is less complicated. City hall has seen a rise in requests and the records officer is swamped. To address the issue, Langley is spending money on additional help, and looking to streamline its processes. This is the right way to handle the issue. Rather than pursuing measures that dissuade the public from exercising its right to ask for records, the city is focusing on how it can better perform its state-mandated obligations. Despite the differences in how Langley and the school district approached the problems associated with records requests and arrived where they are today, it’s encouraging that both are looking to improve transparency. Government is a tough and often thankless job, and officials who are willing to accept public feedback, make changes where needed and sharpen the tools of their own accountability demonstrate why they deserve our trust.
Letters Response
The time to voice opinions on a Langley lift is now Editor, I agree with Ron Kasprisin’s March 14 assertion that, “continuous, vociferous and intense support” for the Langley funicular is suspect. The city and a few others, including Kasprisin himself, have tried for years to push this project through with little public awareness or participation. In 2008, Kasprisin facilitated several months of closed-door meetings with the city planner, Larry Cort, and Paul Schell to plan development of the waterfront featuring mechanical assist to Cascade Avenue and determining changes to zoning codes regarding height restrictions and setbacks from the bluff to support it. I disagree that Langleyites should withhold opinion until the new city planner, Michael Davolio, provides his recommendation to the city council. That is not how a democratic process works. Davolio is requesting we provide our inputs at the public meeting, set for April 14, so he can use them in reaching

a conclusion. Kasprisin indicates the new city planner does not need input from the community to form an “objective” opinion. The former city planner, Jeff Arango, did not want community input. We have yet to see how important public input is to Davolio. The city planner works for the mayor and alongside many city council members that strongly support the funicular and are eager to see it come to fruition. If the city planner recommends a funicular, the proposal goes to the council for vote. With Mayor Fred McCarthy and this council, the funicular will proceed. It is wrong for Kasprisin to say that the city planner should decide what is best for Langley because the planner is “experienced, knowledgeable, and objective.” Who decides “objective”? Is that possible? The community should not step back and entrust this important decision to the planner and city leaders. Each of us has experience, knowledge, and the ability to reason. Our conclusions are equally important and should be considered crucial to the city. Most already have an opinion of the funicular, whether they want to fund it, if they think it is needed and will provide great benefit to the city and whether

Letter writer says he’s not an abusive requester Editor, School Board legislative representative Rocco Gianni spoke in support of a bill that hinders access to public records. To make a case for deterring records requesters, he testified that a “former teacher’s” records requests cost the district $500,000 and that Superintendent Jo Moccia, who he characterized as an “expensive secretary,” wasted time perusing and redacting records. He called the situation “not morally ethical” and “a crime against children.” His scapegoating comments to SEE LETTERS, A7

wasted “$500,000,” according to Gianni, unsuccessfully defending its violation of the records act. “Expensive secretaries” indeed. Instead of admitting wrongdoing, it maliciously appeals to public opinion and urges greater governmental secrecy. Worse, it retaliated against records-requesting parents by publicizing their children’s confidential information, another violation of federal law. Using children as shields has triggered more legal actions and attracted the attention of civil rights organizations. The district continues to enrich its attorneys with taxpayer money intended for students.

It disclosed hundreds of records to me long after Moccia claimed she had completed a “thorough” search, only after my repeated requests, and only after I sued it for violating the state’s Open Public Records Act. It knew its insurer didn’t cover PRA lawsuits, and thus spends money meant for students to pay lawsuit costs. Moccia testified under oath that attorneys — not Moccia — reviewed and exempted records. In short, the district paid its Seattle attorneys hundreds of dollars an hour to ineptly respond to my legitimate records requests — a judge later ruled against the district for the untimely production of documents — and

Falcon junior Lucas Leiberman weaves between Coupeville players March 19.
Falcon soccer routs rivals
South Whidbey was on both ends of lopsided games this week after routing Friday Harbor 12-0 Tuesday and being drubbed by Granite Falls 14-1 Thursday. The Falcons clobbered the Wolverines after taking an early lead, 3-0 in the third inning March 17 for South Whidbey’s first game of the season. South Whidbey poured in more scoring in the fifth inning thanks to a pair of home runs. Callie Patterson, the Falcons’ senior second baseman, knocked a threerun homer that was later followed by senior catcher Anne Madsen’s two-run blast. Mackenzee Collins, South Whidbey’s freshman pitcher, kept the defense mostly on its laurels as she recorded 13 strikeouts. “That’s what I want, to make my fielders not have to field,” said Falcon head coach Tim Collins, also Mackenzee’s dad. “She’s still a 14-year-old girl and there are 18-yearold girls that hit the ball,” he added, referring to other teams’ players in the Cascade Conference. That seemed to come true as South Whidbey suffered its first loss, and a short one due to the 10-run mercy rule, against Granite Falls

Hosgeldiniz: NWLA celebrates Turkish culture By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record When Langley resident Fred Lundahl first passed through Turkey on his way to the Caucasus of Central Asia, he was equally impressed by the architectural beauty of the Hagia Sophia and the genuine welcoming nature of the nation’s people. It is this same warmth that inspired Josette Hendrix, director of Northwest Language Academy and Cultural Center in Langley, to name the next installation in the organization’s Language of Food series “Hosgeldiniz,” which means welcome in Turkish. Language of Food aims to connect individuals through cross-cultural community gatherings featuring food, conversation, cultural presentations, music and dance. This month’s event will feature Turkey, a country which Lundahl describes as, “a modern, social mediaconscious population overlaying one of the most ancient civilizations in the world.” Hosgeldiniz takes place at 5:30 p.m. Saturday, March 28, and will begin with a bazaar filled with Turkish imports including jewelry, clothing accoutrements and figurines. This will be followed by a feast of Turkish cuisine and performances of music and dance. The dinner and event costs $65. The Turkish Honorary Consul of Seattle Ufuk Bey Gokcen and Recep Demir, Turkey’s commercial attache will both be present, as will Dilek Tezcan Anderson and Yasemin San of the Turkish cultural organizations Turckcha and Tacawa, according to the Northwest Language Academy website. Anadolu Youth Dancers, a group of Turkish American children from the Seattle area, will perform. Bob Beer and Izumi Fairbanks will play Turkish folk music on kemane, kemenche and Pontic lyra and baglama (traditional string instruments) and drum while pop group Sehr-i Seattle will perform a medley of popular modern Turkish songs. The Mutrib Orchestra, a group of musicians from the Mevlevi Order of America, will play both classical Turkish music and Sufi songs, including

Fred Lundahl, owner of Music for the Eyes in Langley, has visited Turkey more than 20 times. His shop includes several imported Turkish items. ilahis, and will demonstrate turning. Audience members will be encouraged to join in learning some basic turning gestures as well as the call and response of ilahi. Preceding the evening’s festivities, Süreyya Gökeri, co-owner of Seattle’s Cafe Turko, will lead a cooking class from 2-5 p.m. The class costs $35, which includes a recipe book. Hendrix explained that the dishes will consist of traditional recipes which individuals can make at home. One week prior, on Sunday, March 22, Lundahl
will join Graham Umit Dogan, owner of the boutique travel agency Treasures of Travel, for a presentation and discussion. Dogan will also offer tips on traveling to Turkey for those who are interested. Admission to Sunday’s event is by donation at the door. Hendrix said she hopes that each of the events will present an opportunity to facilitate a discussion that will illuminate a more “human view” of current events, including Turkey’s unique position on the world stage. Lundahl, who owns the
downtown Langley shop Music for the Eyes, has traveled to Turkey 20-30 times since his first visit several years ago. He and his wife make the trip annually, acquiring new goods for the shop, visiting with friends and exploring new places. Despite their frequent visits, Lundahl said he and his wife still have places they have yet to explore, due to the country’s numerous ancient historical sites and natural beauty. Just last year, Lundahl noted, archaeologists dis-
covered a 14,500-year-old temple, which was featured in National Geographic as an astonishing and important find. The ancient city of Troy was also located in the area now known as Turkey, according to the World Heritage Centre. “We’re proud of stuff that is 300 years old,” Lundahl said. “They are proud of stuff that is 3,000 years old.” He added that the Hagia Sophia, the architectural wonder which so impressed him upon his first visit,
embodies the evolution of Turkey and its ancient roots. The building was built in 537, and served as a Greek Orthodox patriarchal basilica. It was converted to a mosque following the fall of the Ottoman’s conquest of Constantinople, and presently is a museum. “It is so awe-inspiring,” he said.
