Dogs will tolerate heat to the extreme, so it can be difficult to tell there’s a problem until the situation is more serious. That’s why it’s best to keep your Creative Commons dog in the house or in a cool, shady place in the yard during extreme heat, according to the Kitsap Humane Society.

T
he new Washington state law aimed at preventing pets from being locked in hot cars seems to be doing its job. As local temperatures soared into the 90s this summer, Kitsap Humane Society Animal Control officers received far fewer calls
BEING HUMANE By KAREN MATHEE from concerned citizens than they usually do in a heat wave. Effective this month, the law
levies a $125 fine for leaving animals in a car when it’s hot enough to harm them and permits animal control officers and police to break in and rescue pets without being liable for damages. “Normally at this time of year, we get around 15 calls a day,”
Lead Animal Control Officer Chase Connolly said. “Now we’re getting maybe four or five.” As of this writing, his officers have issued two citations related to the law. Not everyone may realize just See HUMANE, Page 4

Poulsbo will likely stick with ban on pot Despite new revenue-sharing law By MICHELLE BEAHM

POULSBO — A new
Maritime museum is taking shape
state law will require the state to share revenues from marijuana sales with
counties, cities and towns that allow marijuana retail businesses to operate within their limits. The City of Poulsbo has a ban on recreational and
medical marijuana retail stores, and one of the reasons for the ban was lack of revenue sharing. “(That is) certainly why I encouraged the city, from
my viewpoint, to take the position they did,” Poulsbo City Council member Ed Stern said. Stern has been vocal that the state should share

PORT GAMBLE – A ceremony will take place 10 a.m. to noon on July 23 at the former mill site to bless Port Gamble Bay. A two-year project to remove creosoted pilings and wood waste from 140 years of mill activity begins this month. Lloyd Fulton, S’Klallam elder and former mill worker, will open the ceremony with prayer. Welcoming remarks will be made by Fulton, Pope Resources
CEO Tom Ringo, and Port Gamble S’Klallam Chairman Jeromy Sullivan. A prayer song will be offered, followed by a blessing of the land and water, and a Shaker prayer by Gene Jones. Much has been done to improve the health of Port Gamble Bay since the mill closed in the 1990s: Pope Resources’ cleanup to date of the former mill site.

Soft opening Aug. 8 POULSBO — With each scrape and sand and brushstroke July 12 and 13, new life slowly emerged from the old building at 19010 Front St. The 1909 building was originally the home of Liberty Bay Bank. In the ensuing years, it was the home of the North Kitsap Herald, a motorcycle dealership and, for 17 years, Gifts of Promise. Now, as earth tones and deep blues replaced aged whites, grays and yellows, volunteers slowly transformed the 106-yearold structure into the
revenues with local governments in which marijuana retail is permitted. “It’s been a real battle,” Stern said. “We ended up
