West Priest Lake Fire to ask for levy increase

General Election issue would raise levy rate by 16 cents per $1,000

PRIEST LAKE – The West Priest Lake Fire District is asking voters to approve a maintenance and operations levy rate increase on Novem-ber’s General Election ballot. The district will ask voters to increase the levy rate from 13 cents per $1,000 of valuation to 29 cents.

The district started as a group of volunteers in 1970s that used a telephone tree

to spread the word of fire. It became a taxing district in the mid-1980s. The levy rate then was 39 cents per $1,000 of valuation. Now it’s 13 cents per $1,000.

The protected value of property in the district has increased from $59 million in the 1980s to more than $330 million today.

Because the district can increase property taxes by only 3 percent per year, the levy rate has decreased as value has increased.

The Coolin/Cavanaugh Bay

Fire District has a levy rate of 89 cents per $1,000, and North of the Narrows’ rate is 55 cents.

The district now has a “state of the art” radio dispatch sys-tem through Bonner County 911, and three fire stations: at Lamb Creek, Kalispel Bay and Nordman, along with a substation at Grandview Resort in the summer. Each station has at least on Class 1 engine and a tanker of 1,500 to 4,000 gallons.

The district also has a fire

A group of swimmers take off to start the second annual Priest Lake Triathlon Saturday, Aug. 27 at Hill’s Resort. Participation more than doubled from last year’s event. Athletes took on an Olympic distance course or a sprint event, and some competed in teams with different people taking on the swimming, biking or running.

BY JANELLE ATYEOOF THE MINER

NORDMAN – More than 300 triathletes turned out for the second annual Priest Lake Triathlon, which took place at Hill’s Resort Saturday, Aug. 27.

There were 160 finishers in the Olympic distance race with Derek Garcia, 27, of Post Falls leading the pack with a 1 hour, 59.02 finish time. He did the 1,500-meter swim in 23 minutes, the 40K bike course in 56:37 and the 10K run in 37:20.

The top female finisher, Su-zanne Kaplan, 38, of Sandpoint finished in 2 hours, 24 minutes with a swim time of 26:54, bike 1:08:34, and run 44:56.

Library receives huge, wooden donation

Jay Osborne, left, donated this picnic table with his wife Sherri, to the Priest Lake Public Library. Pictured with him are librarians Sharon Miller, Anne Weitz, Jody Pettit and Lisa Riegel.

PRIEST LAKE – The Priest Lake Public Library now has a behemoth handmade picnic table for your outdoor enjoyment on the landscaped grounds donated by Jay and Sherri Osborne. The table is made out of lodgepole and spruce wood, and the bench seats are made from a full tree trunk cut in half.

The Osbornes have been volunteering at the library with the annual Summer Reading Program and helping with the landscaping.

“I wanted the picnic table to fit in with the history of logging at Priest Lake and the Little Log Library theme,” Jay Osborne said. “Hopefully, visitors to the library will enjoy the picnic table for many years to come.”

The Priest Lake Public Library is located near mile marker 28 on Highway 57. To see this impressive piece of art it is well worth the visit and would make a great photo op-portunity for the family, volunteers said.

County budget down $1 million

“An overwhelming number of citizens let the board know that further reductions in even non-essential services was not acceptable; and that they preferred to pay a slight increase in taxes for these services.”

Mike NielsenBonner County Commissioner

Taxes, salaries increaseBY MICHELLE NEDVEDOF THE MINER

SANDPOINT – The Bon-ner County commissioners approved a budget for 2012 Wednesday, Aug. 25 that is more than $1 million less than the 2011 budget. However, the budget also includes more than $1 million in property tax increases. Commis-sioners held two public hearings Monday, Aug. 23. The proposed budget totals $57,263,279.

While the overall budget is down, prop-erty taxes will increase by 5.94 percent, or $1,088,893, if the budget is approved, to achieve the short- and long-term goals of the county, commissioner Mike Nielsen wrote in his Position Paper on the budget. Nielsen said without the tax revenue increase they would have cut an additional 35 to 40 positions.

“An overwhelming num-ber of citizens let the board know that further reduc-tions in even non-essential services was not acceptable; and that they preferred to pay a slight increase in taxes for these services,” Nielsen said.

The county is able to increase taxes by up to 3 percent a year, as per state

law. The commissioners also used new construction and foregone taxes from last year (the difference between 3 percent and the actual amount they raised taxes last year) to reach the 5.94 percent.

Commissioner Cornel Rasor said in many cases,

depart-ment heads brought the commission-ers budgets that were lower than last year’s.

“We often reduced them further line item by line item,” Rasor said. Items were reduced because historical

expenditures did not war-rant the previously budgeted amount.

Seven county positions have been eliminated. Single positions were eliminated in recording, 911 and the De-partment of Motor Vehicles, as well as 1.5 positions in the sheriff’s office, a half of a position in human resources and two positions in plan-ning and zoning.

Most county employees and elected officials received a 3 percent cost of living increase (COLA), except for commissioners Rasor and Nielsen and assessor Jerry Clemons. They declined to take the increase.

Rasor said the COLAs are to offset the three years of re-

Wolf hunting seasons open in Idaho

BOISE – The wolf hunting season opened in Idaho Tues-day, Aug. 30.

Wolf seasons run through Dec. 31 in Island Park and Beaverhead wolf manage-ment zones, through June 30 in the Lolo and Selway zones, and through March 31 in the remaining nine of the state’s13 wolf management zones, in-cluding the Panhandle.

Licensed hunters may buy two tags per calendar year. Wolf tags cost $11.50 for resident hunters, and $31.75 for nonresidents. The reduced

nonresident tag price is retro-active – hunters who already have bought tags at the higher previous price are eligible for a refund. Details of the refund policy are forthcoming.

Harvest limits are set in five zones – 40 in the Salmon, 60 in the Sawtooth, 25 in the Southern Mountains, 10 in the Beaverhead and 30 in the Island Park zones – to preserve connectivity with populations in other states.

Fish and Game will monitor

County considers development north of Thorofare

BY MICHELLE NEDVEDOF THE MINER

SANDPOINT – The Bonner County commissioners will consider a large-scale, mixed use planned unit develop-ment north of the Priest Lake Thoroughfare at a public meeting Wednesday, Sept. 7, at 1:30 p.m. The Bonner County Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the development at its meeting Aug. 2.

The development is some-what controversial, as the Kootenai Environmental Alliance (KEA) states in an online blog that it would dam-age endangered wildlife in the area.

The applicant, Janet S. Bailey, wants preliminary plat approval to subdivide 71.87 acres into 14 lots ranging in size from 15,066 square feet to 1.08 acres, with 56.94 acres of common, open space. The site is zoned Rural 5, and is located off Sandpiper Shores Road, in Section 10, Town-ship 62 North, Range 4 West, B.M.

The property is about 35 miles north of Priest River and north of the Priest Lake Thorofare, the strip of water

that connects Priest Lake with Upper Priest Lake.

According to the planning department’s staff report, the property site contains 56.29 acres of wet-lands. It does not contain prime agri-cultural soils, but does con-tain moose range and white-tailed door winter-ing habitat, according to the Bonner County compre-hensive plan.

A letter from the Idaho Department of Fish and Game states that black and grizzly bears are also present in the area, and that further devel-opment increases potential for wildlife-human conflicts. IDFG recommends, at a minimum, that the developer enacts covenants that require use of bear-proof dumpsters, limits feeding of wildlife and controls attractants.

The KEA said this finding is significant because grizzly bears are federally listed as threatened under the Endan-gered Species Act.

IDFG further states that

reserving 56.94 acres of wetland open space will not mitigate habitat loss and dis-turbance associated with the development.

That, com-bined with the assertion that the soil at the site is poorly suited for recreational and home site development, the IDFG suggested the site wasn’t

well suited for the proposed development.

The planning staff noted that if the developer shows they can provide for neces-sary standards, such as water

and sewer, access and fire protection, concerns about the suitability of the soil do not affect approval of the development.

IDFG sent another let-ter Aug. 1, stating that the development may alter the movement of some individual animals, but wouldn’t create a barrier for those animals.

IDFG also suggests that mo-torized vehicles be prohibited from the proposed 8-foot wide board walk.

The public can send com-ments on the proposal to the Bonner County Planning De-partment, at 1500 Highway 2, Suite 208, Sandpoint ID 83864; fax them to 208-265-1463 or e-mail [email protected].

Plane crashes at Priest Lake

This small plane crashed at the Cavanaugh Bay airstrip Tuesday morning.

COOLIN – A small plane crashed while the pilot was attempting to land at the Cavanaugh Bay airstrip near Priest Lake Tuesday morning, Aug. 23, according to a news release from the Bonner County Sheriff’s Office.

The pilot, Dr. John Hershey, 85, of Chattaroy, was transported by heli-copter to Kootenai Medical Center in Coeur d’Alene, where he was still in the emergency room when The Miner went to press. He was listed in critical condition. He was the only one in the plane.

Hershey was attempting to land a 152 Cessna when he had trouble on the final approach, according to the sheriff’s office. The plane veered off the runway and crashed.

Emergency personnel located the wreck and found Hershey, who was conscious. According to news reports, he appeared to have a head injury.

The Federal Aviation Administration will investigate the crash.

ductions in pay due to requiring employ-ees to pay a larger share of their benefits.

The sheriff’s office budget increased by $408,765, due to a reworked com-pensation plan, Rasor said. The Sheriff’s Office Guild argued for retaining trained personnel in a series of meetings with commissioners over the last few months. About 71 percent of the sheriff’s office and the jail staff received some increase in pay. Increases ranged from less than 50 cents an hour to nearly $4 an hour for sworn deputies and some other personnel, Rasor said.

“It was not an across the board in-crease,” he said. “In fact, about 29 percent of the sheriff’s office will receive no increase at all.”

The treasurer’s office salary budget increased by about $5,000 for a part-time position added to help during very busy times, Rasor said.

The treasurer also needed more funding

for Tax Deed Sales advertising and legal work that has to be done. This increased by $15,000.

The coroner received a $4,000 salary increase, funded by the two commission-ers and the assessor not taking the increase.

The Buildings and Grounds budget in-creased from $232,849 to $247,983 because of the 3 percent COLA, increase in fuel costs from $3.50 per gallon to $4, a $1,500 in-crease in snow removal contracts, and an increase in contracted cleaning for the administration building.

The clerk’s salary is down because of the removal of an unfilled employee slot, Rasor said.

While the road and bridge budget appears to have been reduced from $7,181,937 in 2011 to $6,782,033 in 2012, it has actually increased overall, Rasor

said. The original road and bridge budget was set at $6,505,952 in 2011. Through the year, however, the county moved more than a half million dollars from reserves into the road and bridge fund to

take advantage of good prices on materials, and to move faster on the maintenance program.

“This budget is one that has substantial reserves because it is one of the more volatile and changeable budgets depending on the vicis-situdes of the weather

and material costs,” Rasor said. Budgets for District Court, Emergency

Management and the prosecutor’s office are all down for 2012 because of line item decreases based on history of expendi-tures, Rasor said. The 911 budget is down because of reduced travel expenses, other line item reductions and the removal of one paid position.

Triathlon collects funds for search and rescue

NORDMAN – Organizers of the Priest Lake Triathlon, held Aug. 27 at Hill’s Resort, donated $2,500 to Priest Lake Search and Rescue.

The volunteer group has helped find lost children, snowmobilers, skiers and motorist in the wilderness areas of Bonner County. They provided support on the course during the race.

“I am continually impressed by the dedication and skill the team brings to the table to support the community for events such as this, or be ready to help those in trouble,” race organizer Ken Eldore said. “They are truly an asset to our area and put in many hours of training and preparation. (They) are supported by a very dedicated group of people who give a lot of personal time to

help others when they need it.” The second annual Priest

Lake Triathlon drew just over 400 participants, from first-time triathletes to seasoned elite competitors. The event of-fered two courses, an Olympic distance road bike course and a sprint distance mountain bike course. Find results at milliseconds.com.

“The biggest reward I get at the end of the event is seeing smiles on the faces of people who just accomplished some-thing they are proud of, and it’s fun to be able to share our area with them,” Eldore said.

In September, he will be hosting the second annual Priest Lake Marathon, half marathon, 50K ultramara-thon, and 5K family fun run. Event information can be found at priestlakerace.com.

Fire commissioners said they desperately need to up-grade turnouts and breath-ing apparatuses for the 20 active volunteers.

Jim Perone, a resident of Priest Lake who was a fire commissioner in Spokane

County for 18 years, said the district should have a paid fire chief and offer a small stipend for volunteers, to cover the cost of training.

He believes that could de-crease the fire rating of the district, possibly saving resi-dents more on their home-owners insurance than the levy increase would cost.
