PORT ORCHARD — Ali Rochelle Giannini, a “person of interest” in the hit-and-run collision that killed pedestrian Michael Keaton in South Kitsap July 14, surrendered to Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office investigators on July 16.

Giannini, 29, was accompanied by an acquaintance when she met with investigators at a prearranged location. After turning herself in, the suspect — who had been labeled a person of interest by law enforcement — was booked and placed in Kitsap County Jail on $1 million bail.

Deputy Scott Wilson, Sheriff’s Office spokesman, said Giannini will be charged with a felony hit-andrun causing death charge.

Giannini On Sunday, July 15, the suspect’s car was found in Pierce County and impounded by investigators, who determined the 2016 Chevrolet Cruze was the vehicle that hit and killed Keaton.

Keaton, of South Kitsap, was struck by the car while walking southbound on the northbound

shoulder of Sidney. Deputies and investigators from the Sheriff’s Office traffic investigation unit reported he had been a safe distance from traffic, walked against traffic and was wearing a brightly colored shirt and reflective vest. He was well-known to commuters on the route for his daily walking regimen.

When sheriff’s deputies arrived at the accident scene, they found Keaton lying on the side of the road. He was pronounced dead by authorities.

Deputies later located surveillance video showing the white car traveling northbound on Sidney at 6:51 a.m. just before the incident.

PORT ORCHARD — While politics on the national level can’t be topped for its smorgasbord of missteps, intrigue and drama, there’s a tossed side-salad of diversity and bombast at the state and

local level, especially among a crowded group of candidates vying for seats in the 26th Legislative District.

Tawnie Ploe says she is still processing the shock of her father’s death July 14 in South Kitsap. Ploe’s daughter, Emma, 11, also mourns the loss of her grandfather, who was the victim of the actions of a hit-and-run driver.

PORT ORCHARD — When a hit-and-run driver inexplicably took down a 61-year-old pedestrian by hitting and killing him as he went about his exercise routine safely off Sidney Road in South Kitsap, they might as well have taken down his loving family and the community of friends who loved him.

To hear Michael Keaton’s daughter describe him is to listen to a grieving family member tearfully recount the many ways he was, in

fact, a remarkable man. A unique, warm patriarch struck down in his prime in wanton, needless fashion.

When Saturday morning, July 14 arrived, an 8:30 a.m. phone call shattered the world of his family.

Tawnie Ploe answered the phone call from her very worried mother. She was concerned that Ploe’s father hadn’t gotten home from his daily morning walk. Keaton was a serious, determined walker who used the daily routine SEE KEATON, PAGE 2

word that the suspected hitand-run driver had turned herself in to authorities.

“We’ve been through a rollercoaster of emotions. We’ve been numb, we’ve been angry.

But we were able to smile last night with the news that they [Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office] know who they’re looking for. We’re able to laugh and able to feel a little bit better knowing that the police have done a fantastic job in trying to solve my dad’s murder.”

An amazing man He’s passed away and no longer physically part of their lives, but Michael Keaton — also known lovingly as “Pop Pop” — seemingly will always shine a light on his family.

“My dad was amazing,” Ploe said as she leafed through a plastic storage bin full of family photos. She said her father — a proud 20-year Navy veteran — was all about family.

“He was just the best dad,” she said. “He loved his family.

He was the best husband to my mom. They just celebrated their 41st wedding anniversary, and their marriage is what I hope my marriage will be. They were the best example.

“My dad loved my mom and his grandchildren more than anything. My sister and I were talking about it yesterday — we knew how much he loved us, but we both agreed that my mom and all six of his grandkids were his entire world. He lived and breathed for them.”

Keaton’s eldest grandchild Emma was especially close to her grandfather. She remembers their occasional trips to eat out — the latest a visit was to a local pancake breakfast restaurant. It was time for just the two of them.

And he shared time with the other grandkids in a similar fashion.

Keaton loved his wife and grandkids so much, his daughter said, that he lost 100 pounds so he could have

more time with them. He did it by walking and changing his diet. And his dedication and desire to live a healthy lifestyle filtered through to his family.

“We had an app on our phones that we could track each other’s steps,” she remembered. “We would challenge each other to see who could get more steps in a day.”

Keaton’s walking regimen was his primary exercise routine and he was a regular figure walking along Sidney Road in the early morning hours. Ploe said her father started dropping the pounds while her own family — her husband just retired from the Army, and their two daughters and a son — were living in California at the time.

“Every time he would come to visit us or we’d come home to visit, we’d see how drastic the changes were. We were always so proud of him and were so glad he was trying [to lose weight],” she said.

Such a tragic loss sometimes shines a light on a bittersweet discovery for a grief-stricken family, as it did for this one: the qualities that their dad, Pop-Pop and husband possessed, shined well beyond their own lives.

“We knew he was a great man, but after putting so much out on Facebook and getting so much support from the community, we hadn’t realized how great of a man he really was,” Ploe said. “I’m getting messages from people across the country who were impacted by my dad.

“We’re now finding out that on his walks, he would wave and smile, and so many people were touched by that.”

And while this greatly loved man is gone, Keaton has left a legacy for others to live up to.

That isn’t lost on Ploe: “I just hope my husband and I can teach our kids to be like Pop Pop and show compassion, show love, be supportive, be a good person and know a smile or a wave can have such an impact on someone’s life.”

to keep his weight down.

Walking and a change in diet had led him to a 100-pound weight loss over two years.

Ploe recounted her mother saying he knew they needed to be at Adventure of Faith Church to volunteer at Emmanuel’s Clothes Closet by 9. And, in any event, her dad was always home from his walk by about 7:45 a.m.

Preparing to pick up her 11-year-old daughter Emma, who had spent Friday night at her grandparents’ house, Ploe got a second call. It was from her daughter — there had been an accident and she needed to head to her mom’s house immediately. Grabbing her two younger kids and getting them in the car, she then got a third call, again from her daughter.

“I heard screaming and crying ‘No, no, no!’ Then the phone disconnected. My mom called back and she said, ‘Tawnie, it’s your dad.

He’s gone.’”

Arriving at the scene of the accident in South Kitsap, Ploe found her mom and her daughter by the side of the road in hysterics, screaming and crying.

Later, as the shell-shocked family members left for their vehicles, law enforcement officers were there to help comfort them.

“The police were so helpful at that moment,” Ploe said.

“They helped me get my mom to her car and secured.

I took my mom home — and just waited. At that moment, we knew it was him, there was no question it was him.”

Since then, Ploe and her sister Allison Wareham are keeping their mother, and each other, within reach.

Family members — mother, daughters and grandchildren — are struggling through the shock and pain even as they hold each other for comfort.

“We’re getting by,” Ploe said the Monday morning after the tragedy, before receiving

Caldier blasts opponent over legislative ethics charge

By BOB SMITH

Kitsap News Group

OLYMPIA — The Legislative Ethics Board has dismissed a complaint filed in March that alleged state Rep. Michelle Caldier violated legislative ethics laws by asking that $81,000 in state funding be directed to the nonprofit ARC of the Peninsulas, which is led by her fiance.

The nonprofit agency, which advocates for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, has as its CEO Caldier’s fiance, Chris Tibbs.

Caldier requested a capital budget appropriation during the 2017 legislative session for repairs to a building owned by the ARC of the Peninsulas.

The ethics board reported that Tibbs had requested the appropriation through the state legislator’s office.

In its order to dismiss the complaint, the legislative board ruled Caldier, a twoterm Republican, “did not receive any private financial gain” as a result of her actions.

Rep. Michelle Caldier The board stated that “introducing and lobbying for the passage of legislation is the heart of legislative activity” and is part of the “normal and regular” conduct of a legislator.

Robert Parker, a South Kitsap resident and community activist, filed the complaint alleging that because of Caldier’s personal connection with Tibbs, she violated the Ethics in Public Service Act, which includes provisions prohibiting elements of conflict of interest, special privileges and personal gain by state legislators and employees.

Caldier said Parker filed the complaint at the behest of her Republican primary candidate, Randy Boss, a contractor from Gig Harbor. “[The complaint] was filed by one of my opponent’s supporters,” Caldier said. “My opponent wrapped his entire campaign so far around the ethics complaint, putting out misleading flyers. There’s also a video put out through independent expenditures attacking me, as well.

“The taxpayers should be paid back for the false complaint that was put against me for political purposes. These shenanigans need to stop.”

Parker also alleged that by co-sponsoring legislation in 2015 and 2017 to repair the Turner Joy museum ship and create a passenger-only ferry from Bremerton to Seattle, Caldier had furthered the financial interests of Tibbs, who was a lobbyist with Westsound Strategic Partners.

In its findings of fact, however, the ethics board stated that Tibbs’ clients at

Westsound were Mason County and the Bremerton Historic Ships Association — but that he had never lobbied for Kitsap Transit, nor was the transit agency a client of Westsound’s. The board also found that while Tibbs lobbied on behalf of the historic ships association, he was not paid for his efforts.

Tibbs was hired as executive director by ARC of Kitsap and Jefferson (now named ARC of the Peninsulas) in January 2017. Later that month, he sent Caldier an email with a state budget request for the ARC capital project. Caldier subsequently submitted the $80,855 budget request to the House capital budget chair.

In the ethics board report findings, the state representative said she first heard about the ARC project from Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent, who wanted to use a portion of the ARC building as an emergency cooling/heating center. Without HVAC upgrades, the mayor noted, it could not be used as an emer-

gency center.

When asked by board staff why she made the facilities request for a building not in her district, Caldier said it provides services to people who live nearby in her district.

The budget request was included in the capital budget that passed in January 2018.

The ethics board found that Tibbs did not benefit monetarily from the appropriation action — he did not receive a salary increase or a bonus as a result. The board’s statement noted that the nonprofit agency has not yet received the appropriation.

Responding to the complaint that Caldier and Tibbs financially benefited as a result of their personal relationship, the ethics board wrote that the couple is not married, nor do they live together.

“Rep. Caldier’s actions appear to be those encompassing the ‘heart of legislative activity’ for which she did not receive any private financial gain.’”

Caldier said she was trou-

bled by the ethics allegation, particularly in its linkage to ARC of the Peninsulas. The state representative, who lived in foster care for a portion of her youth, related that she shared a room in the seventh and eighth grade with a severely autistic girl. Caldier said her roommate attended an ARC-sponsored dance each Friday, and still does some 30 years later.

“The ARC does a phenomenal job of serving individuals with developmental disabilities. When I learned the air conditioning went out [at the ARC facility], I think they should be able to jam out and be comfortable. There’s nothing wrong with that, regardless whether my fiance worked there. I would do everything I possibly could to help individuals with developmental disabilities.

“It’s sad they would take something so wonderful and twist it into something so horrible,” said of the ethics complaint. “It’s wrong.”

been down in the mid-30-percent range, so Gilmore is hedging her bet somewhat because of no-stamp change and the increase in options for voters to return their ballots.

Surprisingly to many, the county’s 22 ballot drop boxes are being used by almost 50 percent of Kitsap County’s approximately 166,000 registered voters who return their ballots. The number of ballot boxes is an increase of seven over a three-year period.

The county auditor believes one of the reasons voters use the boxes is that it doesn’t require a

stamp. And it is convenient for people who are on their way to work or running errands.

“I think having additional drop boxes out there has helped,” Gilmore said. “We’ve seen a real increase [in use] over the years. And it’s ticking up every year, so with the increased number of drop boxes in different areas, that could have an impact on the postage-paid issue, as well.”

The reason voters seem to say “meh” when it comes to voting in primary elections has to do with their marquee attraction.

“In a primary, you don’t have any of the state measures [on the ballot],” she said. “And there aren’t any hot topics out there this year.

“So, how are voters going to return their ballots? I think it’s great they have options to do that. So, it’s up to them.”

‘No-stamp needed ‘ elections ahead this year

By BOB SMITH

Kitsap News Group

PORT ORCHARD — When you return your primary election ballot through the mail to the Kitsap County Elections Division beginning this week, you’ll save yourself a 50-cent stamp — all election ballots this year will be postage-paid by the state.

Washington state Gov. Jay Inslee and Secretary of State Kim Wyman joined forces to secure funding last May so that voters who return their ballots by mail won’t have to pay postage for the primary and general elections this year.

But whether the practice becomes permanent isn’t certain. The state Legislature will need to pass legislation

next session that would make Washington state the first in the U.S. with permanent universal postage-paid voting by mail. Inslee and Wyman said they plan to work together to forge a passable bill with secure funding.

Primary election ballots should have arrived in mailboxes by Friday, July 20, said Steve Gardner of the Elections Division.

Delores Gilmore, Kitsap County’s auditor who oversees the election process, said she remembers only one other time when the county used postage-paid ballot envelopes: “There was a pick-a-party primary way back when, because the size of the ballot was so large, voters would have need-

ed two stamps on the return.”

In that case, Gilmore said the county Election Division didn’t see an increase in voter participation.

“We didn’t see that it made that much of a difference,” she said.

By what means voters intend to return their ballots — by mail, drop box or by voting in-person at the county’s Administration Building — Gilmore is hoping to see voter participation rise above the paltry 35 percent threshold of recent years.

The intent of postage-free envelopes, of course, is to make voting as easy an exercise as possible for voters. Whether the postage-paid envelopes make a significant difference

remains to be seen. Gilmore hopes that is the case.

“It could uptick a little bit,” Gilmore said.

“I’m hoping that in the midterm election, we can get back to a 40 to 45 percent turnout.”

The state’s top election official said even in a competitive, high-visibility 2016 presidential election year, just 35 percent of registered voters participated in the primary election process.

“That’s really low compared to past years, where we hovered around 45 percent turnout. Now, if all of a sudden, the numbers jump up this time around, we can say, well, maybe it is due to that. But it’s really hard to tell.”

Recent primary turnout has

New gun warning provision may be on state’s horizon THE PETRI DISH

By JERRY CORNFIELD

OLYMPIA — Back in 1965, with mounting evidence of the ill effects of smoking, Congress decided every pack of cigarettes should come with a few words of caution.

Thus was born the first Surgeon General’s Warning.

Its effectiveness in coaxing a smoker to quit or convince someone not to start is considered minimal these days. But those few words — enshrined in law — are a signature and abiding element of a multifaceted and multimillion-dollar campaign against the use of tobacco products.

Now a similar approach toward guns may be on the horizon in this country — and in front of Washington voters this fall.

Initiative 1639, which would impose new restrictions on gun owners and buyers, is awaiting certification by the Secretary of State for the Nov. 6 ballot.

Most of the attention is on its ban on sales of semiautomatic rifles to anyone under 21 and a requirement for background checks on buyers. It also requires owners to lock up their firearms or potentially face criminal charges if one of them is used to injure or kill someone.

There’s also a provision, in a vein similar to the Surgeon General’s Warning, to alert would-be buyers of dangers associated with firearms.

It calls for adding the following language to the application form that buyers must complete and sign at the time of purchase: CAUTION: The presence of

a firearm in the home has been associated with an increased risk of death to self and others, including an increased risk of suicide, death during domestic violence incidents, and unintentional deaths to children and others.

Drafters of I-1639 snared the verbiage from a law on the books in New York City. They want to make Washington the first place where it is employed statewide.

“This was really a common-sense approach for us,” said Renee Hopkins, chief executive officer of the Washington Alliance for Gun Responsibility, which is spearheading the ballot measure.

They hope that buyers, after reading the words, will be inclined to take steps to ensure their new weapon is locked up at home, she said.

“We believe most gun owners are responsible and want to do what is needed to keep their family safe,” she said. “This language is about ensuring they know and understand that having a gun in the home increases the risks.”

The purpose is not to deter anyone from making a purchase.

“It is about how you deal with firearms once you own them,” she said.

Certainly more than words on an application would be needed to change a buyer’s mind at the checkout counter. Adding a photo from a crime scene or a mass shooting to the paperwork might get them to pause.

That’s not the vision of those behind this year’s initiative, Hopkins said.

“Our intent is to be sure people are well-informed when they purchase a firearm,” she said. “It is a really modest approach.”

Initiative 1639, which would impose new restrictions on gun owners and buyers, is awaiting certification by the Secretary of State for the Nov. 6 ballot.

GE: A Dow powerhouse falls on hard times Last month, General Electric lost its place among our nation’s top 30 performing corporations. It was the last member of the original companies that composed the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

Since 1896, American investors have looked to the Dow to judge how the top performing companies’ stocks are trading each session. The Dow favors companies with excellent reputations for sustained growth and that have broad investor interest.

GE, once the world’s most valuable company, was replaced by Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc., the Deerfield, Illinois-based drugstore chain. GE stock slipped to $13 a share.

While the roots of GE’s problems go back to a series of bad acquisitions, the eviction was precipitated

by GE’s tumbling profits. In 2017 earnings dropped by 45 percent, while the Dow gained 25 percent.

Unfortunately, GE’s slide continued this year with profits dropping another 26 percent.

What happened?

Much of the focus is on GE’s

leadership and the bulk of the By DON BRUNELL blame has fallen on Jeff Immelt, CEO of the company from 2001 until last year, and on the GE board of directors that kept him on for so long. “Immelt has an impressive record for bone-headed and ill-timed acquisitions,” USA Today editorialized. Those actions drained GE’s cash and strained the company’s credit.

Immelt took GE into the subprime mortgage business in 2004, just as a credit bubble was getting ready to pop. In 2015, he bought the power generation division of heavily regulated French multinational named Alstom. In so doing, he expanded GE’s position in coal-fired turbines just as utilities were moving to natural gas and renewables.

“But there is more to the story than villainizing a corporate villain.

The fall of GE is at least in part a story of excess adulation of its erstwhile super CEO, Jack Welch,” USA Today added. He was chairman and CEO between 1981 and 2001.

During his tenure at GE, the company’s value rose 4,000 percent.

Heidi Pozzo, former CFO for Longview Fibre and business adviser based in Vancouver, Washington, has an interesting perspective.

“Under Welch, technology innovations, manufacturing capabilities and productivity gains slowed.”

Conglomerates are not successful over the long term, Pozzo wrote in her June 27 newsletter. Jack Welch did well in a strong economy, but any successor was set up to fail.

Welch created a complex organization that any successor would have difficulty leading and guiding through difficult economic times such as the severe recession starting in 2008.

a bit of a twist this primary election: diversity. Half of the 10 candidates running for the district’s three seats are women; a Latina and Latino are candidates and one is an African-American woman.

The legislative district, which includes a wide swath of South Kitsap County and portions of Pierce and Mason counties, was rocked during the candidate filing week in May involving the 26th District’s well-entrenched Republican state senator, Jan Angel.

The Port Orchard veteran legislator filed for reelection early in the week, then in a bit of political gamesmanship, she withdrew in the last hour on the last day of filing. That set the stage for radio talkshow host Marty McClendon’s entry at the last minute — preventing the sitting district representatives from switching

races and pre-empting other potential candidates from joining the race.

McClendon is perhaps best known in the political arena for running, and losing, three campaigns for office, including the lieutenant governor’s race in 2016. He also served as chair of the Pierce County Republican Party and is a Gig Harbor real estate broker in addition to his radio gig.

McClendon is light on specifics about what he would do in Olympia if elected. Judging by broad statements he’s made over the past several years, the Republican said he is opposed to taxes and “stifling regulations” on local businesses.

A solid conservative who adheres to Christian right policies, if previous campaigns are any indication, McClendon has sent out mailers admonishing district voters to beware of “extreme Seattle-style politics” that he said wouldn’t work in the 26th District — a jab at Democratic challenger Emily Randall. She’s a new-

comer to politics, was raised in Port Orchard and lives in Bremerton. Randall said she returned to the area to be with her family, but the campaign has kept her walking throughout district neighborhoods to meet voters.

Randall is advocating expanding access to educational opportunities and affordable healthcare. The Wellesley College graduate worked in the healthcare field with Planned Parenthood, Children’s Hospital and her alma mater.

The 32-year-old Latina was raised in a union household and was the first in her family to attend college.

Adding a dash more drama to the state senate race is Bill Scheidler, who is running as an independent. The “thorn-inthe-side” candidate, who has run for office unsuccessfully previously, has railed against what he says is widespread corruption in government.

In that regard, Scheidler has alleged that the district’s current representatives have

replace the skills of the people who have left. But many times, succession planning does not focus enough on how to develop a team with all of the skills needed.”

That seems to be a key flaw at General Electric.

There are no easy fixes for GE’s woes. It is downsizing and spinning off major divisions. Hopefully, what units remain with GE will be more competitive and profitable.

That is reassuring news for Boeing, which powers many of its aircraft with GE engines.

Reuters reported: “The

changes in GE unlock, if anything, more capability out of GE Aviation. I don’t feel any constraints relative to what has happened in the past year — in fact, I feel the very opposite,” said David Joyce, CEO of GE Aviation.

Hopefully, Joyce is correct.

State Representative, Position 2 Incumbent Republican Rep. Michelle Caldier is making a bid for re-election by touting her bipartisanship approach in solving district problems.

She referenced her collaboration with Democratic state Sen. Ruth Kagi on foster care (Caldier was a foster child for a portion of her youth) and Sen. Patty Kuderer, also a Democrat, on a bill to curb excessive executive and board pay at nonprofit insurance companies. The legislator also has been involved in working to close gaps in the state’s mental health system.

Caldier has engaged in some scraps with her fellow GOP primary challenger, Randy Boss, during the campaign. The general contractor from Gig Harbor, 69, has battled with Caldier over a complaint filed by one of his supporters with the Legislative Ethics Board. The board dismissed the complaint, but that hasn’t quieted the noise from Boss’ camp. He’s been a reliable firebrand for the conservative right and has fought against numerous school bond measures and taxes.

Boss said he’s in favor of “fresh approaches” to the state’s problems in Olympia, but stated in the voters’ pamphlet that he’s against “throwing more tax dollars into a broken system.”

Joy Stanford, a Democrat running her first campaign for office, has a platform dominated by the issues of education, healthcare and state’s infrastructure. Stanford, who is a substitute teacher in the Peninsula School District, said she will institute common-sense approaches in the Legislature if elected.

Marco Padilla, who is running with the People Over Party affiliation, is campaigning as an independent voice in Olympia. He said his approach in the Legislature would be to “put people over party.” The Navy veteran has been active in veteran causes and is the founder of Latino Veterans In Action.

health care. I believe you can adhere to your core values while working on common goals. I am passionate about reaching commonsense solutions for the residents of the 26th LD and the state of Washington.

3. According to the Washington State Supreme Court, it was a suitable solution.

4. The state Legislature should give guidance as to the resources available in order to start addressing this growing problem that is multifaceted, including drug addiction, mental health issues, job loss and choice.

The state can coordinate triage centers that can get people on the right track for their situation.

5. My pet peeve is that the state Legislature has not been able to find compromise on critical issues like education, homelessness and support for small business.

I will work tirelessly with all who are willing to find and implement commonsense solutions for these issues and others.

Emily Randall Democrat 1. My neighbors care, like I do, about being able to afford healthcare without breaking the bank; providing all kids an equal shot at a good education and a bright future; and growing good jobs and an economy that works for working people here at home. For over a decade, I have worked to expand access to healthcare and education for women, kids and the LGBTQ community.

I have been an advocate and a capacity builder, a voice for change. As a senator, I will continue to put people first.

2. To me, the most important work a legislator can do is to put the needs of their neighbors and constituents first.

Serving real people — not big corporations or partisan games — is the foundation of my political ideology. I will work with anyone who will work in service of our community and the people of Washington.

3. We have made tremendous strides. Still, our children are facing issues of equity. Special education continues to face a shortfall, and we can all agree that our highest-need students deserve an equal shot at a good education. Additionally, we

are facing huge disparities in student learning environments.

Districts that are able to pass bonds can construct new schools, make much-needed repairs and safety upgrades, manage class sizes. Meanwhile, districts like South Kitsap and Peninsula are crowding more and more portables onto lawns and playfields. We can — and must — do better.

4. Our neighbors are struggling to afford the rising cost of living, and we need to take action. I’ve been in conversation with Housing Kitsap, Bremerton Housing Authority, Homes for All, homeless activists and allies to think about solutions that are right for our community. Each person’s situation is different, and we need a multitude of solutions to fix our housing crisis. Legislators must listen to those service providers on the ground, in our communities, who truly understand the problem, not pass a one-size-fits-all package that may work for Seattle or Spokane, but isn’t right for Bremerton or Port Orchard.

5. Too often we send legislators to Olympia who forget their roots. They forget their neighbors in their home district sent them to the capital to work for “we the people,”

find the solution to that issue.

3. It has good and bad points, but as a whole, I think it was a good collaborative effort from both sides of the aisle to fix an issue that has impacted our state for quite some time. There are certain things I would like to work on, such as better funding formulas for special education and working on how our state helps fund capital projects.

As an elected school board member for Bremerton, I have first-hand experience in how some of these issues need to be addressed.

4. This is a complex issue, but one main point I believe needs addressing is the housing shortage and extreme rent prices due to a desperate need to reform the Growth Management Act, reduce unnecessary regulations, zoning, building permits and fees so we can build the homes we need and stabilize market supply and demand. My husband has worked in construction for 20 years and I have seen how building has become overly regulated and costly upon builders, who pass those costs on to buyers/renters.

5. My biggest pet peeve in the state Legislature is the partisan fingerpointing. I have greatly appreciated working on a nonpartisan elected school board and although we may have passionate discussions about issues, our focus remains on representing and fighting for our constituents. Our nation is greatly divided right now, and I would like to set a strong example of ethical and effective leadership that bridges partisan division, while still fighting for issues as a conservative. I believe that with the right leadership, we can collaborate on issues and find common good.

Connie FitzPatrick Democrat 1. As a veteran, small business owners and PTA mom, I have a deeply rooted understanding of my community’s needs. My top priorities are education, infrastructure and demanding more from our leaders. Education: We can stand up for our students, veterans and families by fully funding education and increasing access to affordable higher education, including trade schools and apprenticeship programs. Infrastructure: Each day, locals in the 26th District face declining infrastructure and high transportation costs, potentially driving away business and threatening our local economy. While there are a number of issues I want to address, it’s important to understand their common thread: we have not demanded enough from our leaders. My opponent has taken extreme votes against children and our SEE QUESTIONS, PAGE 7

economy and was investigated and fined for inappropriate behavior in his office. I want to restore the moral standards and put the needs of families over partisan political gain.

2. I am a firm believer in reaching across the aisle and working with others to reach a common goal, despite the obstacles. Although this is a part of who I am, I will never — and would never — compromise my personal values or morals for the sake of reaching an agreement.

3. We may be in compliance, but we haven’t done enough. I will fight to ensure class sizes at every grade level are lower and secure more funding for early learning and special programs.

4. Homelessness is a critical issue. To address it, we must prioritize affordable housing, mental health care and job training, among other things. I will speak up for such policies instead of criminalizing people experiencing homelessness.

5. Time and time again, I have been disappointed by the intolerable behavior of my opponent and the system that allows him to get away with it.

Not only has he consistently voted against school funding, infrastructure improvements, veterans and those struggling with mental illness and addiction, he recently was barred from employing legislative staff members by the Legislature because of his pattern of abusive behavior toward women in his office. Such a man should not serve the people of Washington. If elected, I will hold our government and

communities to a higher standard, and advocate for every voice in Washington.

Jesse L. Young Republican Jesse L. Young did not respond to our request for answers to our questions.

STATE REPRESENTATIVE POSITION 2 Michelle Caldier Republican 1. It is difficult to limit my constituents’ issues to only three, but the most common concerns I hear are: how we fund school construction, gaps in mental health services and transportation issues.

2. You can still adhere to your ideological principles and cross party lines for a compromise. It is important to put your differences aside and focus on common ground.

For example, Rep. Sherry Appleton (D-Poulsbo) and I worked together to fight CHI Franciscan/Harrison Hospital when they were overcharging Kitsap County residents on medical care. During that process, there were some issues that came up that were very partisan, but we decided to set those differences aside and work together to fight for our constituents.

3. What we passed in the Legislature was far from perfect, but it did fix most of the inequities between school districts in our state. In addition, it put parameters around levy dollars to require they are spent only on what voters approved. Another important piece of the legislation was fixing health care for educators. Residents in South Kitsap School District will benefit

KitsapDailyNews.com

greatly from the McCleary solution that was passed.

4. We need to make changes to the Growth Management Act, which has prevented construction to keep up with population growth. This has resulted in increased costs of housing that many families are unable to keep up with. We also need to provide a continuum of services to the mentally ill and individuals who are substance abusers.

5. My pet peeve in the state Legislature is that many legislators do not have an open-door policy. I came to Olympia as a citizen several years ago and was frustrated with how many refused to meet with me. As a result, when I was sworn into office, I made a decision to personally answer every email and phone call, and meet with anyone who requested a meeting, even if they didn’t have an appointment. One day, over 50 people arrived in Olympia without a meeting. It was difficult, but we managed to fit everyone in that day. I promise you to continue to have an open-door policy in Olympia, regardless of where you stand on the political spectrum.

Marco Padilla People Over Party 1. Competitive industries to provide jobs and opportunities, affordable housing/ development in our region, and finding an equitable sustaining funding for education, especially capital projects. As the only post-9/11 veteran, I want to implement veteran initiatives that will provide them with the tools necessary for retention and success in our region.

2. My campaign is the only one with the drive to

Page 7

put “People Over Party.” I am tired of the divisive politics and rhetoric that currently has a grip on our society. I understand that we need a fresh approach to finding solutions for District 26, instead of differences. This is why I do not represent any specific party agenda. In addition, in Olympia, we must represent everyone, not only a specific few.

3. That is not enough. All of our current legislators have failed our children and that alone is grounds to get fired.

The major reason why we cannot find a suitable solution is because of party politics in Olympia. Without raising taxes, I propose an equitable, sustainable funding through cannabis revenue that sits in the state at the moment.

4. We need to attract and retrain green collar industries so that we can provide competitive jobs and quality salaries in our district. In addition, we need to eliminate the red tape, work with local developers who are truly invested in our community, like Sound West, for example, to find equitable solutions to affordable housing. Collaborate with local government and nonprofits so that we can build “tiny homes” projects in our region. Finally, incentivize local business owners to participate in retraining programs that will allow indigents the ability to work at these businesses for six to 12 months while they transition into a better future.

5. Our current legislators have no leverage. We need to reshape and reform politics in Olympia. Because of the close majority margin, party members vote party lines

always. We need a voice that will not caucus with any major party. Giving my “swing vote” the power to focus on our district needs. Through unity and civility, we can implement common-sense policies in Olympia and together accomplish more.

Joy Stanford Democrat 1. The issues I’m focused on are formed by the conversations I’ve had knocking on doors and talking to actual residents of the 26th District.

(They are) transportation, education and taxes. Folks want better, more affordable and robust options for getting to work. They want fully funded, high-quality education for all children, including smaller class sizes and dedicated resources for special education.

Lastly, I’ll fight to lower property taxes. People shouldn’t have to worry about being taxed out of their homes.

2. I believe it is essential to look for bipartisan solutions that really create results. I’m not a politician, and it’s not natural for me to retreat to partisan politics like many in our Legislature do. In my career, I’ve succeeded by collaborating and finding common ground to develop solutions that work. That’s the same approach I’ll bring to Olympia for the people in our district.

3. While the Legislature’s fix did add money to K-12 education, it failed to fund other aspects of our education system that I consider basic.

Champagne, anyone?

The Port Orchard Marina once again hosted the Chris Craft Rendezvous wooden boats show, this one the 29th annual event on July 12-15. Between 60 and 80 of the classic, elegant boats were expected to take part in the popular show.

Chris Craft wooden boats bring elegance to Port Orchard Marina

By BOB SMITH

Kitsap News Group

PORT ORCHARD — Like refined, elegant royalty taking a respite from their obligations, the wooden boats docked at the Port Orchard Marina for the 29th annual Chris Craft Rendezvous boat show July 12-15 exuded a certain sense of waterborne dignity.

While the exact count wasn’t available, organizers of the event expected between 60 and 80 boats to show up at the marina.

For the Chris Craft boat owners and their families — which includes plenty of boating “commoners” — the Rendezvous is their chance to gather and share their latest adventures on the water. The show was open to all Chris Craft wooden boats, regardless of size, age or condition.

Port Orchard zoning code changes to encourage affordable housing

By ZACH JABLONSKI Kitsap News Group

PORT ORCHARD — The Department of Community Development presented the start of a new housing plan July 17 to the city’s homelessness committee that is focused on making development laws easier to adhere to and with a heavy focus on affordable housing.

The plan is being drafted

by Community Development Director Nick Bond as a way to combat the growing homeless population in Port Orchard.

According to Port Orchard Mayor Rob Putaansuu, the average household size has been shrinking, but the square footage of new homes being built does

kitsapkubota.com

not reflect that drop, and so prices are rising per person.

Current housing projects have been focused on large houses and apartment buildings in areas not close to public transportation, rather than making them affordable and meet the needs of the area.

Putaannsuu described how the ratio of jobs-to-houses in Kitsap County and how it has affected Port Orchard.

“For the last two years, [for] every hour, seven jobs have been created,” Putaansuu said.

“But every hour, three houses have been built.”

This influx has caused the cramped housing crisis that Kitsap County is facing and

for which Port Orchard is starting to suffer.

Bond said an avenue that developers haven’t been using is with alternative building styles. Bond’s plan would encourage more multi-family homes —such as duplexes, townhouses, or affordable apartments.

Currently, building codes are geared toward single-family homes, as Bond described, but the new plan would help encourage contractors to maximize the opportunities for multi-family buildings.

cussed and homeless committee members heard about how tiny homes will fit into the new codes.

According to Putaansuu, this style of homes will be added to the plan at a later date after the city is finished revising building codes. The mayor said a different permit process will be needed, but they will not know what that entail until the new codes are in place.

The official comprehensive update to the zoning codes is proposed to begin this fall. As part of that effort, a survey of public interest was completed July 20, providing the public an opportunity to weigh in on housing affordability and availability issues.

Kitsap County seeking more space for homeless shelters

By TYLER SHUEY

“There is just not enough places for everyone to live.”

Kitsap News Group

BREMERTON — The Kitsap County Board of Commissioners recently approved a crisis response to homelessness.

The response aims to make homelessness a rare, brief and one-time occurrence in Kitsap County and seeks to ensure that affordable housing is accessible to all residents who need it. The program partners with many social service providers and affordable housing developers.

Kirsten Jewell, Housing and Homelessness Division coordinator for the county, gave a presentation about the plan last week at a Bremerton City Council meeting.

“There is just not enough places for everyone to live,” Jewell said. “Great demand for small supply equates to an increase in rent.”

A big emphasis of the plan is to identify the most vulnerable people. Other proposed plans include adding 120 shelter beds throughout the county, adding 15 respite care shelter beds for people with medical needs and adding 60-80 permanent supportive housing units for people with

The added beds should

help those already homeless.

Kitsap Rescue Mission is one of a few homeless shelters in Bremerton. Sonny Zubia, a

Bremerton resident, became homeless last year and has been going to the shelter ever since.

“Being homeless isn’t just being homeless; it’s being ignored and talked bad about.

We have nothing to look

forward to. The word ‘no’ has become a big part of our life,” he said. “I’ve never slept here before because there’s not enough beds. I have to hide to sleep. Being in Bremerton is the toughest I’ve ever seen.”

According to the 2018 Point In Time Homeless Count, there are estimated to be more than 450 people living on the streets, in vehicles, in the woods, in shelters and in transitional housing throughout the county.

For Zubia, having a place to go would be a big help.

“Being homeless in Bremerton is very, very tough because it is illegal,” Zubia said. “We can’t be outside because it’s loitering.

Everywhere we are is bad because we are not working and don’t have a home. It’s a hard life.”

Adventure of a lifetime: Area man plans 1,250-mile kayak trip Trek made to inspire children to explore outdoors

By MARK KRULISH Kitsap News Group

PORT GAMBLE — John Kuntz is getting ready to embark on the adventure of a lifetime.

On Aug. 1, Kuntz will take a 1,250-mile kayaking journey over the course of two and a half months on the Columbia River from the “source” to the “sea.”

He will begin on Columbia Lake in British Columbia and follow the river all the way to the Pacific Ocean, landing at Clatsop Spit Astoria, Ore, the same place Lewis and Clark’s famous westward expedition ended.

And it’s all in the name of inspiring young people to get outdoors and learn the art of adventure.

Kuntz, 61, is undertaking the trip in honor of Erica Reith, the 19-year-old daugh-

encourages young people to get outside and works with school teachers to create an educational component to adventure.

Erica’s mother, Diane Conmy, is a co-worker of Kuntz’s brother, Matt; through the two of them, Kuntz hopes to bring his adventure into classrooms everywhere.

“I’m just encouraging people to get out and experience life,” Kuntz said.

“Younger kids today are self-absorbed into electronics, and I think they’re missing the boat here. I think what they will find and experience out there is better than anything on their phones.”

The journey will be a big step up in mileage for Kuntz, who is the owner of Outdoor Olympic Center in Port Gamble, which also has rental locations in Poulsbo and

Kuntz hopes to raise awareness and money for “Eri’s Adventure Project,” which

Silverdale.

He has completed kayaking trips of 200 and 250 miles over the past two years. In 2016, he traveled from Golden, British Columbia to Revelstone,

British Columbia. Last year, he completed a trek from Revelstone to Kettle Falls.

Calling a 21-inch-wide, 18-feet-long kayak home for 10 weeks will be quite the challenge.

Kuntz said he’ll be loaded up with about 100 pounds of food, and camping and cooking gear. He will make stops at various towns along the way, including Wenatchee and the Tri-Cities.

“Logistically, it’s a challenge, for sure,” Kuntz said, “but not impossible.”

Kuntz will also have to adapt to changing water and weather conditions along the way. While conditions are generally mild during late summer, wildfires will be an ever-present threat.

Last year, a large number of them broke out in British Columbia, which caused ash to fall and smoky, hazy skies in western Washington. It was the largest fire season on record in the Canadian province in terms of burnt area and also featured the largest single fire ever.

Kuntz estimated that it will take him “about a month” to get out of Canada, which means he’ll be heading for the Pacific Ocean as September storms begin to roll in. And the trip is not entirely made up of calm waters. Kuntz will

have to navigate some whitewater rapids as well.

“I’ll handle it when it comes,” Kuntz said. “That’s the plan.”

The element of danger is not a deterrent for Kuntz, who

believes it is OK “to take risks safely to gain the reward of a lifetime.”

“I’ve been in the kayak business for 35 years,” Kuntz said.

“I hear all the time from people about a lot of ‘what ifs’ and

‘should have beens.’ There’s no time like the present.”

Kitsap Community Food Co-Op gets new a home — finally Kitsap News Group

BREMERTON — The Kitsap Community Food Co-Op will finally have a home to call its own.

After operating for about eight months as a pop-up market inside the Sweet & Smokey Diner, the co-op is moving next door to 421 Park Ave. ,the former home of Park Avenue Pets.

“We’re very, very excited,” said Erin Falcone, the co-op president.

“It’s going to be a ton of work and an intense next few months, but it’s so nice to have that clear path forward to our own store.”

The food co-op will be closed briefly; it closed up shop in the diner on July 15 and is expected to partially reopen later this summer, possibly mid-August. The pop-up

market will be twice the size of its space at Sweet & Smokey and partitioned off while renovations continue on the rest of the interior. A capital campaign will then be undertaken for a full build-out of the 1,300-square foot space.

The move toward a full-service store has been a long journey. The co-op was incorporated 10 years ago but struggled to get off the ground under the guidance of its national orga-

nization.

The drive toward opening a huge 10,000-square-foot bigbox store made fundraising difficult, especially when the need was more concentrated in downtown Bremerton, which qualified as an urban food desert — meaning a certain percentage of people lived more than one mile from a grocery store.

Taking inspiration from a co-op on Orcas Island, they opened up their spot at Sweet & Smokey, and things grew quickly from there.

“We finally had a face and a place to explain to people how

we got to where we’re going,” Falcone said. “Starting small can work.”

When the new space opens, it will feature a wider selection of dry goods and bulk items, and there will be space for commercial-grade refrigeration units to stock produce and frozen goods.

In the meantime, the co-op is looking for donors and volunteers to help make fresh, affordable, healthy food in downtown Bremerton a reality.

“Every little investment makes a difference toward rebuilding this local food system,” Falcone said.

Dragonfly Cinema | ’The King’ continues to fascinate America

By NICK TAYLOR Dragonfly Cinema

Nick Taylor is the owner and operator of Dragonfly Cinema, Port Orchard’s independent theater on Bay Street downtown. He on occasion offers readers a look at interesting offerings coming up. This issue: “The King.”

Coming to the Dragonfly Cinema on Friday, July 20 is the thought-provoking Elvis Presley documentary “The King,” a meditation on the rise and fall of one of the country’s most iconic figures, and how his legacy relates to modern America.

“The King” is a sprawling, sometimes overreaching, film but always an engaging and affecting travelogue. Awardwinning filmmaker Eugene Jarecki frames the story by firing up Presley’s 1963 Rolls Royce and driving it from coast to coast, stopping in cities that were pivotal in Elvis’s story and also factor signifi-

Elvis Presley — “The King” — and his influence on America is the subject of this ambitious documentary opening Friday, July 20, at the Dragonfly Cinema in Port Orchard. cantly in the modern history of the U.S. Along the way, they stop and pick up many famous faces (Alec Baldwin, James Carville and Ethan Hawke, to name a few) to speak about their relationship to the artist and icon, some personal and some as an observer. With each guest and stop (sometimes forced by the Rolls

breaking down), the scope of the film widens to encompass Elvis’s spreading impact and influence.

At its conclusion, it has asked more questions than it answers, but the best art usually does.

Putaansuu elected to AWC board

By ZACH JABLONSKI Kitsap News Group

OLYMPIA — Port Orchard Mayor Rob Putaansuu was elected to the Association of Washington Cities board of directors on June 28.

According to a notice from the City of Port Orchard, Putaansuu was elected to the District 12 Putaansuu position — one of the 23 positions held by city mayors and councilmembers — which includes 21 cities and towns in Clallam, Grays Harbor, Jefferson,

QUESTIONS

As a substitute teacher in the Peninsula School District, I have a strong understanding of what kids across our district need to succeed. This new “fix” does not comprehensively fund special education and it doesn’t add new classrooms, even after school districts were mandated to lower class sizes.

We still have work to do, and I’ll make it my job to ensure our education system here in Washington is the best that it can be.

4. Homelessness is a tough

“Washington cities have a unique opportunity to work together through AWC.” — Mayor Rob Putaansuu

Kitsap, Mason, Pacific and Wahkiakum counties.

The AWC was founded in 1933 and represents Washington’s cities and towns before the state Legislature and the governor’s office, as well as state regulatory agencies. The AWC board of directors is the association’s governing body.

Putaansuu said he is pleased to be elected to the position.

“I look forward to serving

on the AWC’s board of directors, Putaansuu said.

“Washington cities have a unique opportunity to work together through AWC. I look forward to being a passionate ambassador and advocate for our members’ priorities.”

In addition to the 23 mayors and councilmembers on the board, two non-elected city officials serve as president and past president of the Washington City/County Management Association.

problem. There isn’t just one solution or program that will solve homelessness for all.

Instead of trying to micromanage the problem, we need to get to the root of the issue.

Here is the 26th District, we have veterans, families and students who are homeless. The reason wildly varies — mental health struggles, drug addiction and affordability. The state needs to better understand what’s driving people to homelessness and work regionally with cities and counties to better serve those in need.

5. My biggest pet peeve is the negative rhetoric and talk from one party to another.

Whether in the Legislature or throughout the campaign, we’re faced with a neverending barrage of partisan attacks.

Voters don’t elect leaders to squabble and whine over party talking points, they elect them to lead. If I’m elected, I’ll create real change by working for the people of our district and our state.
