Justin Burnett / The RecordJ. Glenn Mutti-Driscoll, a hydrogeologist with Seattle-based Pacific Groundwater Group, looks at a core sample dug on a 24-acre property in Freeland Monday. The firm was hired by the Freeland Water and Sewer District to examine the property, which is owned by Jerry Stonebridge, to determine if it is suitable as the future location of a sewer treatment plant. The facility would treat water for the commercial core, and poten-tially additional parts of Freeland in the future. Monday’s testing will go on through the week, and involves removing core samples from depths of up to 105 feet. So far cores showed sandy, porous materials which are good for drainage. “It’s making me happy,” said Andy Campbell, district manager. This was the second phase of testing; the first phase include digging shallow trenches, and the latest will involve actual water filtration tests. If all goes well, district commissioners will likely agree to purchase the site at a predetermined price of $800,000.

South End teachers plan protest walk out

Attorney squabble may lead to High Court

By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record

South Whidbey School District teachers will hold a walk-out next week in protest of the state’s lack of funding for public schools.

The walkout is Wednesday, May 6, but because it was already scheduled as a half-day for students, classes will not be impacted and no end-of-year make up will be required. The afternoon was scheduled as teacher-direct-ed work time, and teach-ers will make up this time, Superintendent Jo Moccia explained via email.

The teachers will join thou-sands of other Washington State educators who have staged walkout protests over the past week.

“By staging a walkout, we add our voices to all the other districts and communities around Washington State say-ing our students and teach-ers deserve better,” wrote Val Brown, spokesperson of the South Whidbey Education Association in an email to The Record. “We want to send a strong message to Olympia: Fund education now.”

Teachers in at least 12 Washington school districts have either already walked out or proclaimed their intent to do so. Others, such as Seattle, Spokane and Everett are considering the action.

Teachers in Bellingham, Ferndale, Blaine, Mount Vernon, Conway and Anacortes walked out on Friday, April 24.

School was closed in Lakewood and Stanwood-Camano school districts Wednesday, April 22.

The Island County prose-cutor, county commissioners and a land-use attorney may be headed for a constitutional showdown. In addition, the deputy prosecutor’s union is exploring the possibility of fil-ing a grievance against the board.

The kerfuffle follows the commissioners’ decision Tuesday to hire Kirkland attorney Susan Drummond as special counsel to advise the board on the ongo-ing update to the county’s comprehensive plan, which guides growth and develop-ment in the county.

Maximum fees for up to two years of work are lim-ited to $120,000, or $4,000 per month, without further authorization. In an added wrinkle, the contract indem-nifies Drummond against any lawsuit that the county pros-ecutor may file against her.

Vickie Churchill and Alan Hancock, the county’s Superior Court judges, approved the contract for special attorney services in a letter that addressed and brushed aside concerns raised by Prosecutor Greg Banks. They wrote that his objection — and threat of a lawsuit — are puzzling.

“Such special counsel will actually aid his own office in carrying out its duties,” the letter said, “and is being appointed because, among other things, the prosecu-tor is apparently unwilling or unable to provide some of the

Clinton Council ponders better days with roundabout, vision

By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record

Getting help from the state to better control traffic and from the county to craft a vision were the top priorities discussed by the Clinton Community Council during a monthly meeting Monday.

Eight volunteer members of the council’s board, led by Jack Lynch as president, met at the Clinton Community Hall to discuss their ongoing projects. Most of the larger items covered are years away from becoming reality, among them a roundabout at the intersection of Deer Lake Road and Highway 525, and getting vast input from the Clinton community to help create a vision for what the area should look like in the Island County Comprehensive

Plan update. “As it is, the existing plan doesn’t have a whole lot about

Clinton in it,” Lynch said in an interview prior to the meet-ing.

The comprehensive plan is the guiding document for planning and growth. It regulates zoning and development. Periodic and state required updates are opportunities for citizens and governments to make course corrections based on population growth and projections, as well as changing environmental codes. Now, it’s Clinton’s time to better determine where it will head in the next 20 years.

The South Whidbey Homeless Coalition hosted a housewarming

event and dedication ceremony for the new House of Hospitality from

1-5 p.m. Saturday, April 18.

The house, which is

expected to open May 1, will provide a temporary living space for families and vulnerable adults who lack permanent housing.

A number of Whidbey non-profit organizations have operated within the space, previously known as the House of Hope.

According to South Whidbey Homeless Coalition Chairwoman Judy Thorslund, about 175 guests attended the housewarming event, which featured music by Beverly Graham of Operation Sack Lunch and violinist Gloria Ferry-Brennan.

Thorslund said that a number of community leaders were present, including Helen Price Johnson, Margaret Andersen of Whidbey Island Nourishes and Joanne Pelant, Island County housing special-ist.

Nigel Taber-Hamilton, pastor of St. Augustine’s in-the-Woods Episcopal Church, performed the dedication.

NotableSouth Whidbey Homeless Coalition dedicates new House of Hospitality in Langley

By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record

Langley paid $1,000 and agreed to disclose documents to settle a lawsuit by a Clinton man earlier this month.

Eric Hood, a former South Whidbey School District teacher, sued Langley for allegedly violating the Public Records Act in January. He filed a request in December 2013 for any records and cor-respondences that mentioned his name. His lawsuit claimed the city withheld documents from his request.

Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy was the school superintendent when Hood’s teaching contract was not renewed. Hood is currently in litigation with the school district.

The settlement agreement, obtained through a records request, included a stipu-lation that neither the city nor Hood speak to the news media. Only the statement: “The parties have reached an amicable settlement,” was allowed under the agree-ment.

Hood did not respond

to a request for comment. McCarthy said only that he was not able to speak about the deal.

“I’m not at liberty to say much about the Hood settle-ment,” McCarthy said. “Part of the agreement was to only say we reached an amicable settlement.”

In Hood’s lawsuit, he claimed the mayor kept a “secure confidential file” that was discussed via email to

the city council. As part of the deal, the city maintained it had previously disclosed all of the records contained in that file.

The ninth stipulation was that Hood would not make further public record requests concerning person-nel matters related to him-self, concerning McCarthy or himself for as long as the mayor serves, up to five years.

Island County judge sets bail at $125,000

By JESSIE STENSLANDSouth Whidbey Record

A Langley man who ran a public rela-tions firm on South Whidbey turned him-self in Monday after being charged with several sex crimes.

Prosecutors charged Jonathan Sage, 32, in Island County Superior Court April 13 with four counts of rape of a child in the second degree.

Sage is accused of raping two boys numerous times in 2010 and 2013, when the victims were 12 to 13 years old, according to Island County court docu-ments.

In March 2014, Detective Ricky Felici, with the Island County Sheriff’s Office, met with the two boys after they had dis-closed to their father what had allegedly occurred, according to Felici’s report.

The boys now live in another county.The boys reported that abuse started

after they drank alcohol with Sage and that the assaults occurred regularly for years, Felici said in his report.

The boys’ father confronted Sage, who allegedly asked him not to report the mat-ter to police and “promised that the family would not hear from him anymore.”

After the alleged victims came forward, Felici and patrol deputies attempted to contact Sage several times, but his resi-dence looked vacant and his business appeared to be shut down, the report said.

A judge set bail for Sage at $125,000 on April 13. The sheriff’s office posted his photo and information about him on Facebook Monday. He turned himself in at the South Precinct a little over an hour after the information was posted.

Sage owned a company called Northwest Public Relations, which cre-ated promotional videos for businesses and nonprofit organizations, among them Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation and Whidbey and Camano Islands Tourism.

If convicted on the charges filed against him, Sage faces up to 23 years in prison under the standard sentencing range.

Transportation efficiency jumps

South Whidbey School District’s transporta-tion department has earned a 96.3 percent efficiency rating from the state Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction.

The rating indicates how well the department uses its assets, equity and inventory and repays its liabilities.

Superintendent Jo Moccia applauded Assistant Superintendent of Business and Operations Dan Poolman’s work, not-ing that when he took

over the transportation department two years ago, the district had a 70 percent efficiency rating.

Within his first year, she said, Poolman increased the efficiency to 82 per-cent.

“He’s an unsung hero,” she said.

Ferry Dock Road work sought

The Clinton Community Council wants a better place for dropoffs and pickups on Ferry Dock Road.

During a monthly meeting Monday, the council’s presi-

dent, Jack Lynch, said the Washington State Department of Transportation agreed to make some improve-ments to the narrow road and 20-minute parking area between Highway 525 and Berg Road. He said gravel would be laid between the street and bluff; the area becomes wet and muddy with little room for people to get in and out of a car’s passenger side. Hillside brush would also be cleared, and hash marks would be painted to demarcate where the 20-minute area ended.

“A little bit of lip-stick on the pig just for now is not always bad,” said Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson, a member of the volunteer-led com-munity council.

A lingering issue, council members said, is people parking there much longer than the 20-minute limit. Island County law enforcement has been asked to check the area, Price Johnson said, but more help from the state would be appreciated because it is the state’s right of way.

Public works to upgrade radios

Radio communications among Island County Public Works staff will improve thanks to an interlocal agreement approved Tuesday.

The agreement between Island County and ICOM — the county’s

9-1-1 dispatch service — will increase the number of radio trans-mission “towers” from two to seven, allowing additional clarity and range, according to Matt Nienhuis, Island County Public Works ER&R man-ager.

The five additional “towers” will not involve new construction, Nienhuis said, only new equipment attached to existing structures.

The upgraded radio technology is similar to that used by Island Transit and emergency services, and will serve as a backup network for the Island County Sheriff’s Office, Nienhuis said.

With only two towers available and spotty cell service, Public Works has had limited communica-tion abilities.

“It will improve the day to day communications because of the clarity,” Nienhuis said. “It’s also important in an emer-gency — if a tower goes down there’s more to rely upon.”

Examiner OKs Upper Langley

Langley’s newest affordable housing and intentional community is set to break ground with the development’s recent approval by hearing examiner Ted Hunter.

In a news release, the group behind Upper Langley celebrated the news that the South Whidbey city’s first Innovative Permanently Affordable Program for housing is closer to real-ity.

“We are deeply grateful to the many supporters and helpers along the road to this milestone in our destination,” the release said.

The next steps for the project are to have a road paved to replace the gravel currently along the stretch of Al Anderson Avenue, south of Fairgrounds Road and the Langley Community Garden. It will be located across the road from the Langley-Woodmen Cemetery.

Langley Director of Community Planning Michael Davolio credited the project for its innova-tion.

“I am happy to have been a part of this pro-cess, as I believe that Upper Langley will pro-vide a great example of what housing affordabil-ity can look like,” he said, adding that he was one of three planning direc-tors to work on the devel-opment over the past few years. “We will all be closely tracking the prog-ress of this project, to see if there are ways to make this “demonstration proj-ect” a more permanent part of the city’s afford-able housing strategy.”

Deftly moving from branch to branch of the old oak tree, Jesse Brighten put on a performance in Langley this past week that was part trapeze artist, part mountain climber.

The International Society of Arboriculture certified arborist with 10 years of experience practicing on Whidbey Island was in town Friday to remove broken string lights and prune dead branches from the iconic tree at Whale Bell Park. He was hired by the Langley Main Street Association, which originally placed the lights in the tree to brighten the dark

fall and winter nights in town. Brighten not only quickly

completed the work, at times 40 feet up in the tree, but brought with him a presenta-tion packed with information in honor of Arbor Day. As he swung high above, secured

by climbing ropes and har-ness, Elliott Menashe of Greenbelt Consulting was the eyes and partner on the ground watching for pedes-trians and offering ample information for the curious folks that gathered.

Trees provide numer-ous benefits, according to Menashe, from providing shade, privacy, and wind block to improving air qual-ity, conserving water and harboring wildlife. Trees, long enduring and beautiful, can also become part of a community, he said. There have been many past efforts to save particularly large or historic trees on South Whidbey, such as along Surface Road, Andreason Road and the old growth for-est at South Whidbey State Park. Trees are an invest-ment, long living and quickly growing to a size that may require help from a profes-sional, he said.

Brighten brought along several displays that high-lighted tree problems, and offered educational tips to observers, from pruning to what to look for when hiring an arborist.

He added there are better ways to add brighten up a tree than with light strands

— they can constrict and be swallowed by a growing tree. Instead, use lighted globes

with wide straps, a tip Main Street officials said they will consider.

ResponseBluff’s stability, liability needs re-examinationEditor,

If we don’t build a funicular/elevator, would we have to return the money? One of the grant’s original purposes was to widen Wharf Street and make the bluff safer. After all, improvements to the marina will be wasted if Wharf Street is damaged or destroyed. Private property owners might be reluctant to invest in new development if Wharf Street is not improved to accommodate more traffic and reduce the likelihood a slide will occur.

One critical improve-ment that remains undone is barriers to trap slide debris before it hits the road or homes, as recom-mended by engineers in 2013. The system would help protect the public from “shallow slides that will be difficult to con-trol over the long term.” A “shallow slide” means that less than 5 feet of the bluff face collapses. That can still be a heck of a lot of dirt — very destruc-tive and dangerous. The report recommends either a retaining wall or special mesh fencing.

When you think about it, it’s a miracle that no one was hurt in the 2013 slide. With the city’s intention to increase marina use, the risk will only grow. If some-one were injured by slide debris and it were known that the city had ignored advice to install a debris trapping system, how would the family, council, and all of us feel? What would be the liability impli-

cations?Additionally, the mayor

has stated that at least $90,000 has been spent so far to improve the drain-age on Cascade Avenue. This was what the original grant was supposed to pay for. Couldn’t the city ask for the grant to repay the citizens for that cost?

No doubt there are other good appropriate uses for the grant, but return-ing some of the money wouldn’t be the end of the world.

SHARON EMERSON Langley

Keep politics out of Langley marina project’s futureEditor,

South island is generally liberal with numerous con-testing agendas, a healthy condition minus a few nas-ties. Let us not use the lift as a political football, instead work together to strengthen downtown, the marina and resort district. How?

Wharf Street has five components: the marina,

inn, waterfront “houses,” the Drake and vacation rentals. This district can add environmentally sound revenue and design qual-ity to Langley. Support the development of the remain-ing parcels (Drake and vacation homes) in their time with reliable people access. I support the late Paul Schell’s vision for the Drake (Inn at Langley annex with cafe) as it’s key to the district.

The port is expand-ing the marina for larger boats, sight-seeing vessels and recreational boaters. Downtown’s economy as local retail/services, sec-ond home/weekend resi-dent/general tourism, is adding event facilities and entertainment retail, such as Ott and Murphy, Second Street Wine Store (yes, I like wine!); the Dog House renovation with restaurant and lower level event space (owner); Edgecliff event space potential; Pizzeria expansion, new/existing restaurants, fairground diversity, etc. — solid low-er-impact economy.

Paul wanted to combine an elevator for his annex

that also served as a pub-lic conveyance up the hill; we discussed options for the bridge to terminate at a lower topography with level trail that connected to First Street, protecting views — design resolu-tions. Previous developers funicular entered the sec-ond level of a mixed use Drake site.

The point? Support, not hinder ben-

eficial quality additions to our economic resources. Work with city, port and owners to set the stage for a quality district over time.

Volunteerism sounds great but does not work long term — it’s not reli-able, consistent or conve-nient. The elevator/funicu-lar options are on call from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. for locals and visitors alike, making for reliable, consistent, convenient, low mainte-nance service. Keep our healthy politics for other arenas and work as a com-munity to benefit our com-mon future.

A rebirth for Clinton?Editor’s column

I thought with regular exercise one is supposed to lose weight. What a crock.

Six pounds. Six. Pounds. That’s what I’ve gained since Mr. Spock and I began our daily after-work wanderings across South Whidbey more than a month ago. And these aren’t five-minute jaunts to the mailbox, mind you, but expedition-length treks through forests and along many miles of shoreline. So you can imagine my outrage after that first trip to the scale.

My only consolation is that I’ve become a discoverer. Not the likes of Christopher Columbus, though in some ways just as much of a fraud. Like the man who “found” North America, I recently located what I believe to be the largest tree on South Whidbey, or what remains of it anyway. Within sight distance of the Fern Gully Trail in South Whidbey State Park is a behemoth, a tree with bark nearly a foot thick and a circumference so large it puts even my belt to shame.

Sometime within the past few decades, this silent sentinel succumbed to fate and all but about 50 feet of it now rests on the forest floor. As I walked along its fallen trunk I was hum-bled with the realization that for hundreds or even a thousand years this incredible tree towered toward the sky and that it was only in this tiny and final snapshot of its total existence that such a feat was possible.

My wonder was lost on Mr. Spock, my three-month-old blue heeler, but the marvel stuck with me and has remained in the corner of my mind. I hate to say it, but I thought of it again Monday while eating dinner at Cozy’s in Clinton — I had a BLT, no fries, by the way. That very night the com-munity council was meeting to once again ponder the area’s future. Included was a discussion about the installation of a roundabout on Highway 525, a traffic light alternative that some hope will slow ferry traffic as it rockets out of town. One might wonder, however, what’s left to stop for? A banana split at Dairy Queen? A U-Haul, a used car?

Of course the downtown business district has more to offer than just that, and the community council has made strides to bring people to town in recent years. They’re true Clinton warriors. But the northward migration of key businesses to places like Ken’s Korner have taken a hefty toll, and it’s hard not to think of Clinton as that fallen tree, something great that once thrived but at some point suffered a deathblow from which it cannot recover.

The enthusiasm and perseverance of the community coun-cil may yet pay off and members will come up with a magic recipe to turn things around. Or perhaps not, and downtown Clinton has simply seen its day.

Personally, I’m not ready for that, and so choose to remain optimistic. I’m also willing to do my part, which I guess means I’ll be buying a few more of those tasty BLTs. Oh well, we all have to do our part, and I’m ready to make the sacri-fice. My waist line be damned. It was a lofty goal anyway.

LIGHTINGImagine working two jobs, in

two different locations, with one job providing excellent earnings while the other pays nothing? Which job would get the bulk of your attention?

Homeowners sometimes place themselves in such a situation when they plant a “For Sale By Owner” sign. To successfully market a home, it is necessary to be available at all hours — seven days a week. The home must be kept in model condition, ready for showings — sometimes with only 30 minutes notice.

Research must be done to de-termine recent sale prices on comparable homes. A market-ing campaign must be planned and implemented. Mortgage loans must be arranged, apprais-als and inspections coordinated, and... well... you get the picture.

Real estate specialists work full-time. Period. They under-stand the complexities of mar-keting a home, and are 100% committed to the achievement of your objectives. Amazingly, they get paid only after suc-cessfully selling each home. Thinking of trying it as a “By Owner?” Think again!

plan update.’ Well, the time is here,” said Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson, a council member and Clinton resident.

The council has long derid-ed the highway as essentially splitting Clinton’s commer-cial area in two. Crossing the lanes on foot, bike or car is

rarely a simple jaunt and the community council wants to improve safety and access with a roundabout.

The problem, as is usu-ally the case, is funding. Curt Gordon, a Port of South Whidbey commissioner and community council mem-ber, said the Washington State Department of Transportation can build a roundabout for around $300,000, but the funding just

isn’t there for Clinton. To help ease the burden,

council member Doug Hofius designed a roundabout to show how it can be built.

“We think it would accom-plish several things, not just certainly slowing traffic,” said Lynch, a retired community planner. “It would provide a safer haven for pedestrians crossing the road. It could also have some landscap-ing as part of our hope for improvement.”

Some businesses near the ferry have struggled. Several “for lease” and “for sale” signs dot either side of the highway. The council sees the comprehensive plan update as a means to eventu-ally spark revitalization in the area in a “if you build it, they will come” mentality.

One of the council’s pet projects, the Clinton Food Shed, appears to be adrift. Created in a partnership with the Clinton Progressive Association, the shed was envisioned as a cafe, produce market and gathering place to be an anchor in the area and a draw for locals and visitors. The struggle was finding a location, despite numerous vacancies, with a suitable commercial kitchen and parking, and funding. Donations were taken, but a possible procedural problem with the board led member Hal Schlomann to resign and ask that the money be returned to donors and the account closed. About $1,700 was in the account.

“At the moment, I guess we’re in hiatus,” Lynch said.

“I think the feeling was things could move faster than they really can,” he added.

A market study of Clinton, commissioned by the Port of South Whidbey, may help greatly in determining what its assets and allure are for business owners and resi-dents. Gordon said the port district, charged with eco-nomic development, should have a request for quotes issued in the next two weeks and that the information would ideally be available before the year’s end.

Some of the big events ahead for Clinton include May Day on May 30 and the second annual Clinton Town Picnic in September. Events may be the future fundraisers for the council’s endeavors. Its bankroll has sat at about

$700, said Lynch, with $300 for website development and $400 for the non-profit sta-tus application. That money came from $50 membership dues by the council mem-bers, and Lynch asked the council to again pony up $50 to help cover some promo-tional costs.

“Short of Clinton’s own Choochokam, we need some seed money,” Gordon said, referring to the annual arts and music festival in Langley.

The community council meets the last Monday of every month and the meet-ings at Clinton Community Hall are open to the public. The next meeting is sched-uled for Tuesday, May 26 because that Monday is a holiday.

Six yellow cards were issued in a rough-and-tumble boys soccer match between Cascade Conference rivals South Whidbey and King’s on Friday.

South Whidbey rallied from an early 1-0 deficit and survived a host of penal-ties called on King’s to win 2-1.

“It was an intense game, one of the most intense games we’ve played,” said Falcon head coach Emerson “Skip” Robbins.

Players were pushing and shov-ing, coaches yelled at each other and Robbins said attitudes soured to the point he thought the team’s benches might clear — a more common occur-rence in baseball than fútbol.

“It was ugly,” Robbins said. King’s took a 1-0 lead early in the

match. Knight senior Svenn Helleren booted in a goal on an assist by Nii Engmann in the fifth minute.

“I think our center backs got caught on the same line and weren’t in a diago-nal,” Robbins said.

South Whidbey answered midway through the first half. Falcon senior Davin Kesler sent the ball to junior Lucas Leiberman who booted it in from

the left side to tie the match. Late in the second half, South

Whidbey got its go-ahead goal on a penalty kick by senior Jeff Meier. A handball in the goalie’s box by King’s put the ball 12 yards away from the goal with just Meier and the Knight keeper, and Meier’s leg won the battle.

“There’s no quit in them. They don’t get down, they don’t feel sorry for them-selves,” Robbins said.

The win secured a potential tiebreak-er for playoff position in the 1A District 1 tournament because South Whidbey beat King’s both times.

Three teams were tied for second place: South Whidbey, King’s and Cedarcrest. Beating King’s for a second time kept South Whidbey in the hunt for the top berth from the Cascade Conference in the district tournament. But the win did not come easily.

The Falcons, however, had more challenges ahead when they faced the Cedarcrest Red Wolves in Duvall on Monday. After falling to the Red Wolves 2-1 at Waterman’s Field earlier this sea-son, the Falcons reversed their roles and won 2-1 in Duvall, spoiling Cedarcrest’s senior night and final league home game.

“They completely outplayed us and

we wound up winning,” Robbins said. “They out-possessed us, they outshot us, and the guys found a way to win.”

South Whidbey took the lead on a goal by Meier, who lofted the ball over the Cedarcrest goalie for his 21st goal of the season.

Cedarcrest tied the score on a free kick that rolled past the scrum in the South Whidbey goalie box and by keep-er Charley Stelling.

“It came through everybody and went through the low-post corner,” Robbins said. “I think Charley was just blocked out from seeing it.”

A deflected shot by junior Jordan Henriot found its way to junior Lucas Leiberman who booted it in for the go-ahead goal.

The win kept South Whidbey (9-3-0 Cascade Conference, 11-3-0 overall) on par with King’s in second place in the league standings. King’s has to face undefeated Archbishop Murphy and Cedar Park Christian later this week. South Whidbey hosts winless Lakewood on Wednesday for its final regular-season home game and travels to Sultan (4-7-0 conference, 5-7-1 overall) on Friday to close out league play.

South Whidbey baseball took the series opener 3-1 against King’s on Monday in Shoreline.

Playing on the new turf at Shorewood High School, South Whidbey took a 3-0 lead going into the final inning when King’s scored a run off a deep pop fly into the outfield that got lost in the sun for the Knights’ only run.

Other than the “sun ball” blemish, Falcon head coach Tom Fallon said his team played brilliant baseball.

“It was a real tight, nail-biter game,” he said. “It felt like I was stealing a win,” he added. Falcon sophomore Will Simms threw a complete game

and got several Knight batters to ground out, including a pair of double plays.

South Whidbey junior Charlie Patterson scored in the fifth inning on Simms’ fly ball to right field that glanced off the fielder’s glove. The Falcons added a pair of runs off aggressive base running in the sixth. Connor Antich, a sophomore, reached base on a single. After stealing sec-ond and taking third on a passed ball, Piehler was walked. Piehler stole second and Antich scored on a passed ball.

South Whidbey hosts King’s for its final Cascade Conference home game this season and a ceremony to honor the teams five seniors will begin before the game around 3:45 p.m.

The Falcons have another home game scheduled in a non-league competition against Lynden on Tuesday, May 5.

CLINTONCONTINUED FROM A1

By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record

Most consider landscaping to be a chore, but for Masa Mizuno it is a work of art.

While others heave prun-ing shears into the garden to take a whack at unruly shrubberies, Mizuno calmly contemplates the space, the inherent shape of the foliage, the delicate balance of forms and lines of sight.

Mizuno is a Portland-based master gardener responsible for the establish-ment and upkeep of numer-ous traditional Japanese gardens throughout the Pacific Northwest, Canada and Japan including the Nikka Yuko Japanese garden of Lethbridge, Canada which he has maintained since 1990 and the Portland Japanese Garden. He has also worked with landscape architect Koichi Kobayashi in the Seattle Japanese Garden.

Northwest Language Academy and Cultural Center will host its annual Japanese horticulture work-shop and luncheon from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Saturday, May 2 at a private residence in Clinton.

Mizuno will demonstrate techniques, answer ques-tions and lead a tour of the residential garden. Lunch will also be served.

The event costs $75. To register, contact the NWLA office at 360-321-2101, email programs@nwlanguageacad-emy.com or visit nwlan-guageacademy.com.

While attending school in Japan, Mizuno had the choice of attending college or learning a craft.

“I couldn’t study in the classroom; I’d get sleepy all the time,” Mizuno said with a grin.

He opted to take up land-scape architecture, which he studied for three years.

After graduation, Mizuno landed a job with a landscap-ing firm in Osaka before moving to Tokyo to join another, larger company. In Tokyo, he received training from elder gardeners and worked to maintain and establish residential and his-torical, public gardens.

Historically, gardens built for emperors and nobility

were designed for aesthetic pleasure while those built for Buddhist temples were designed for meditation and contemplation. The earli-est Japanese gardens were established in the first cen-tury CE.

Types of gardens include karesansui, rock gardens or Zen gardens where white sand takes the place of water; roji, which include teahouses where tea ceremonies are conducted; kaiyu-shiki-teien, designed to allow visitors to stroll along a path to admire landscapes; and tsubo-niwa, small courtyard gardens.

In the 1980s, Mizuno developed his own firm, Masa and Associates. He relocated to the United States in 2000 and began work at the Portland

Japanese Garden as land-scape director. He has also established and maintained a number of sites in the region, including several on Whidbey.

Friend and client Norm Bodine, a Clinton resident, began working with Mizuno in 2000 after the two met at a meeting in Seattle.

“It was one of those lucky coincidences,” said Bodine. “It’s similar to how I met my

wife, a total accident, total luck.”

Bodine, an avid gardener himself, had purchased a plot of land specifically intended for the installation of a Japanese garden.

Mizuno transformed the space, which includes rho-dodendrons, a stream and gazebo as well as a variety of trees and other complement-ing elements.

During a recent interview

at Bodine’s home, Mizuno discussed his work.

He said that it is essential to pay close attention to each part of the plant, its growth potential and inherent shape.

“The pruning is just help-ing their natural progres-sion,” Mizuno said.

Trimming the plants brings them to scale in pro-portion with the rest of the garden. It’s also essential for the plant’s growth, Mizuno said.

Most of the plants Mizuno uses are already on site. Native species protect more traditional plants such as

rhododendrons, azaleas and Japanese maples.

Bodine’s garden, Mizuno said, is dominated by coni-fers and Western red cedars, which contrast with Japanese maples he planted. They also help to shield the smaller maples from the elements.

Traditional Japanese gardens feature miniature, idealized landscapes, typi-cally with an abstract design, and most often feature asym-metrical shapes.

“You don’t want it to be symmetrical,” Bodine said.

“It reflects the nature that has developed in this particu-lar site,” Mizuno said.

The idea is not to change the history or natural charac-teristics of the site, he said. Although it would be pos-sible to change it, doing so would require an “enormous amount of time and energy.”

In addition, Mizuno pays careful attention to lines of sight, ensuring that visitors’ view is not obstructed.

Mizuno will touch upon these and other principles of the craft, during the work-shop.

“The people who come understand the value of this,” said Bodine. “It’s important for people to understand that it’s a very rare opportunity to observe and to ask ques-tions.”

Knowledge of horticulture is not necessary to learn the craft, said Mizuno, though an artistic eye is extremely helpful.

Niki Greene, age 14, is brimming with excitement as she talks about her upcoming performance with the Island Dance Performing Team.

Greene has been with the school since the age of five; this is her first year on the team, an opportunity she’s had her sights on for over two years.

“Everything fell into place,” she said.

Greene will be join-ing fellow Island Dance Performing Team members and guests at the upcoming annual Other Moves dance showcase, which features a variety of dance styles rang-ing from hip hop to lyrical, jazz and contemporary.

Performances will take place at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 21 at the South Whidbey High School Auditorium Theater.

In addition to it being a venue for community members and Island Dance performers to take to the stage to demonstrate their artistry, the showcase is a major fundraiser for the per-forming team.

Funds raised from the

event will be used to offset the costs of competitions throughout the year. They include travel expenses, entrance fees and costumes.

Jamee Pitts, artistic director and choreographer, stressed that the team is less focused on winning competitions and more upon building the dancers’ skill sets and showcasing their teamwork, tenacity and passion.

“We aren’t going there and saying, ‘I’m going to win first place; I’m going to win double-platinum,’ ” Pitts said. “We’re going and saying, ‘I’m going to share my gift and my love for dance; and I’m going to share my story with the audience; and I can’t wait to get the judges’ critique to better myself.’ ”

The team was created by Susan Vanderwood as a means for intermediate dancers who were not quite ready to join the profession-al Whidbey Island Dance Theater company to get a lit-tle more out of the school, a sort of “next edge,” towards a dance career.

Competition was never really the focus, which Pitts says is somewhat unique to Island Dance due to it being home to a school, profession-

al dance company and per-formance team rather than one of these alone.

Pitts has been dancing since age three, and has been the director of the per-formance team for five years.

Her teaching style and philosophy are indicative of her emphasis upon educa-tion and artistry, as is her bond with the girls.

“She’s not like any ordi-nary teacher,” said Chyler White, age 11. White explained that Pitts’ patience and sense of humor are two

of the qualities which make her a good teacher.

White has been dancing with the school since age three, and joined the team two years ago.

Thus far, she estimates she’s been in about seven competitions, including nationals in 2014.

“It was really exciting, and really fun,” she said of the nationals competition. “We got to go to California, and I got to share that experience with the whole team.”

It was the first time Pitts

had taken the team to a national competition.

“It was definitely an expe-rience,” said Pitts, explaining that if she is to take the team to a future national event, she will likely choose one less competition centric, a more educational and “con-vention-based” event.

Tickets cost $12 in advance and $15 at the door and can be purchased in advance at Island Dance and Gymnastics by calling 360-341-1282 or at the office at 714 Camano Ave.

By JUSTIN BURNETTSouth Whidbey Record

Meet Melene Thompson. She’s already well-known to people on South Whidbey, but will likely become even more familiar over the next 12 months.

She’s the fairground’s new prop-erty manager, and the woman the Port of South Whidbey recently hired to figure out if running the facility over the long-term is eco-nomically feasible. The job means she’ll be spending the next year running the daily affairs of the fair-grounds, such as it is, and connect-ing with the public and user groups during a series of meetings.

“I’ll be working a lot of week-ends,” said Thompson with smile, during a recent interview with The Record.

Thompson’s first day was Saturday, and she comes to the table with a background in radio sales and management, and recent-ly four years as Whidbey Telecom’s business account manager. She’s served on the board of directors for

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts, the Langley Chamber of Commerce and the Whidbey Island Animals’ Improvement Foundation, accord-ing to her resume.

Summed up, she’s just right for the job, said Angi Mozer, executive director for the port.

“She’s great,” Mozer said. “I think

she’s going to be awesome.”The job is a contract position,

rather than a port employee. Hired to accomplish specific objectives, she manages her own time and the contract is only for one year. The position pays $50,000, the funding for which came from county grant funds.

Thompson has two primary objectives: to perform due diligence research that will ascertain whether managing and renovating the fair-grounds for the county is economi-cally sustainable, including identify-ing just what the public wants to do with the facility, and the actual management and recruitment of tenants.

The job was formerly in the hands of the Island County Fair Association, but financial difficulties in maintaining the county-owned property ultimately led to the group stepping away from the role. It still retains the responsibility of putting on the fair, but management has been passed to the port.

Both jobs, grounds management and fair administration, were for-merly led by longtime volunteer and employee Sandey Brandon. According to Mozer, she retired before the port took over in April and did not submit an application for the new management position.

Brandon was recently named “Citizen of the Year” by the Deer Lagoon Grange for her 23 years of

continuous service to the fair. In a Grange news release, Brandon was reported as saying her long efforts had nothing to do with a paycheck.

“Work has never been about money for me, but about making a difference and giving my personal best,” Brandon said, according to the news release. “I love using my talents to benefit small businesses, clubs, individuals and organizations by promoting positive images and providing professional marketing materials to showcase their various passions.”

As for Thompson, she said the next few months will be busy. She plans to hold two to three pub-lic meetings a month beginning in May, as much of the due diligence work is due in September. She’s also looking at several means of shining a light on the fairgrounds, from bringing in new tenants to putting together seasonal events, such as a Victorian country Christmas.

Dates and times for the pending community meetings are not yet set.

Wednesday, April 29, 2015, Whidbey Classified, PAGE 19

In Arlington, regular class-es were held Wednesday morning but the day ended early for a teachers rally in the afternoon of April 22.

Oak Harbor teachers plan to walk out on Friday, May 1.

Other schools who have scheduled walkouts include Lake Washington and Sedro-Woolley.

South Whidbey Education Association polled its mem-

bers last week to determine if a walkout would occur. Brown wrote that teachers had voted to do so.

“Preliminary budgets pro-posed by both the (state) Senate and the House of Representatives fall woefully short of fully funding educa-tion,” Brown wrote.

She added that the state Supreme Court has ordered the Legislature to make fund-ing education its “paramount duty.”

The Legislature is current-ly being held in contempt for

not complying. In addition, Washington

State voters passed Initiative 1351 in November in favor of reducing K-12 class sizes and adding support staff. The budgets distributed by the Senate, House, governor and state superintendent “ignore” addressing lowering class sizes in grades 4-12, wrote Brown, and only address low-ering class sizes in grades K-3.

She added that Washington is currently ranked 43rd in the nation for class size.

She added that fully fund-ing education includes rein-stating the cost of living adjust-ment (or COLA) to teachers’ salaries. Washington State residents voted in favor of this with Initiative I-732, but it has been suspended for the past six years.

These combined factors, along with high stakes test-ing, has prompted teachers to take action in protest.

Rich Wood, communi-cations organizer for the Washington Education Association, could not be

reached for comment. “Many teachers across

our state have decided on a method to take action to dem-onstrate that the children of the state are not being served and to call attention to the Legislature, governor, etc., that the budgets are not in line with the needs of students,” Superintendent Moccia wrote in an email to parents and school adminis-trators last week. “That is the one day walk-out.”

legal advice and services that the board is requesting, and has every right to request.”

Banks asked the commissioners not to hire the outside attorney, laying out two general concerns about the contract. He argued that hiring outside counsel over the objection of the prosecutor is unconstitutional. He contends that the action amounts to hiring someone else to do the job of an elected official, which is contrary to the state constitution.

The commissioners, he said, are relying on a statute — RCW 36.32.200 — which he believes is unconstitutional, but untested in court.

Banks said his office is capable of and has been preparing to work on the comprehensive plan update. He said he has two talented land-use attorneys on staff and that the outside expen-diture is a waste of taxpayer money.

He criticized the commissioners for quietly squirreling away hundreds of thousands of dollars for the comprehensive plan update while denying his office a “modest increase” in mov-ing a half-time paralegal to full time. Then the commissioners asserted that his office was under-resourced as a justification for not hiring outside counsel, he said.

Deputy Prosecutor Chris Anderson, head of the deputy prosecutor’s union, said that the members also aren’t happy with the hiring of outside counsel. He said the action basically amounts to hiring someone to do their job.

Anderson said the union is exploring its options, which may include filing a grievance.

“Ideally, it would result in the work coming back to the office,” he said.

Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson said one of the reasons she sought outside legal help is that Banks told the board that he can’t give them “strategic legal advice.”

The judges also criticized Banks for refusing to provide stra-tegic advice to the board.

“This is troubling,” the judges wrote, “because at their best, legal services represent, figuratively speaking, not only the ambulance providing services to someone who has fallen off a cliff, but also the guardrail preventing someone from falling off the cliff in the first place.”

Banks said it’s simply not the case that he’s unwilling to pro-vide strategic advice. In a meeting with the commissioners, he questioned what “strategic advice” means and asked what the commissioners want from his office that they are not getting; the issue was not resolved.

He also said it was puzzling to him that the judges were rely-ing on “the commissioners’ false claims” about his office.

Price Johnson said this week that the hiring of Drummond should be seen as an opportunity.

“I will continue to reach out to Greg Banks,” she said, “and hope he will work collaboratively with the commissioners to achieve the best possible outcome for the community.”

Banks previously said he may file a lawsuit against Drummond if the contract is approved.

Banks said he hasn’t decided what he’ll do, but he hasn’t ruled that out. If he does sue, the county will pay Drummond’s legal fees because the commissioners indemnified her in the contract. There is a chance, he said, that the case could end up in the Supreme Court in order to settle the constitutionality of RCW 36.32.200.

In their letter, the judges opined that they believe a court of competent jurisdiction would find the statute constitutional, but Banks is not so sure.

“At least we would get a final answer,” he said, “one way or the other.”
