Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley is out, but City Councilman Jim Campbell is in.

Dudley announced Tuesday that he will not seek re-election this fall, though he previously said there was a strong chance he would.

Campbell announced the same day that he has decided to run for mayor, partly because he didn’t want Councilman Bob Severns to run unopposed. Severns announced earlier this year that he is running for mayor.

Many people in the com-munity have asked him to throw his hat into the ring, Campbell said. As a former senior manager at Lockheed, he said he’s an experienced and profes-sional administrator.

“A good manager surrounds himself with good people and gets out of the way,” he said.

Dudley may be leaving city politics behind, but said he still has some fight in him. He said he believes he would win if he ran again, but it would be pointless if the same council members are in office.

POUNDING THE PAVEMENT

By JANIS REIDStaff reporter

A housing shortage on Whidbey Island this spring is causing Realtors to scramble and buyers to rush to purchase.

Industry insiders say that within the cur-rent “crazy” sales climate houses are moving quickly and staying on the market mere days in some cases.

“It’s a pretty busy market and there’s little

supply of homes,” said Hal Hovey, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Koetje. “It’s frustrating on the part of the home buyers who can’t find a home that meets their needs in their price range.”

This seller’s market is particularly evident in the $200,000 and less homes coveted by first-time homebuyers and military personnel.

But both for homes under and over

Oak Harbor teachers talking walkoutBy DEBRA VAUGHNStaff reporter

Oak Harbor Public School teachers are expected to join a growing number of area school districts that have voted to walk out of class for one day.

Teachers want to send a message to state lawmak-ers, who they say aren’t ade-quately funding state public schools.

In particular, teachers are concerned lawmakers are shortchanging teacher pay and benefits and pushing to increase class sizes. They also don’t like linking test scores to teacher evaluations, a policy they say isn’t based in research and doesn’t help students or teachers.

Members of the teach-er’s union, the Oak Harbor Education Association, were expected to vote Tuesday on whether they should walk out May 1.

The results of the vote came in too late for publi-cation, but association president Kathy Ridle said a preliminary vote last week indicated the union’s mem-bership strongly supports

An injured mature bald eagle will likely survive to soar another day over Whidbey Island thanks to the quick actions of a few Freeland residents.

Keith and Annette Jacobs, with the help of neighbor Sam Breyer, discovered the grounded avian near their homes Tuesday and were instrumental in getting it to a wildlife recovery center.

Unable to take flight with a bruised wing and severely emaciated, the bird may have starved had they not intervened.

“They kept eyes on him for at least 24 hours,” said Bob Drake, a volunteer with Wolf Hollow Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.

“This bird wouldn’t have lasted much longer.”

Located on San Juan Island, the nonprofit Wolf Hollow takes in injured and orphaned wildlife, providing them with medical care until they are healthy enough to be released back into their original habitat. Wolf Hollow also provides public educa-tion and conducts non-inva-sive research, according to

its website.The eagle, believed to be

a mature adult, was found by Annette Jacobs near her home above Double Bluff.

“He was just walking in the yard, this big, huge ol’ eagle,” she said. “I thought, ‘That’s not right.’ ”

Watching him struggle to reach a low fence, it became

immediately apparent that something was wrong. They decided to capture the bird and bring it to a vet. Keith Jacobs said he made a few comical attempts to do so — apparently the eagle was a faster hopper than him — before agreeing they needed reinforcements.

Getting help was harder than they expected, however. Efforts to reach experts on Whidbey were unsuccessful, and the state Department of Fish and Wildlife turned away. Keith Jacobs said he was told the agency didn’t have the resources to come and collect a single eagle.

Desperate to help the wounded bird, the lack of assistance was frustrating, he said.

“It was just rather disap-pointing to get that kind of response,” Keith Jacobs said.

Eventually, they contacted Wolf Hollow. The organiza-tion dispatched Bob Drake, an Oak Harbor-based volun-teer, to come and retrieve the eagle. He arrived Wednesday, and a short time later the bird was on its way to the rehabilitation center on San Juan Island.

Vicki Taylor, a Wolf Hollow staffer who helps with wild-life rehabilitation, said x-rays of the eagle revealed no broken bones. It does have some muscle damage that kept it grounded. The injury appears to be the result of blunt-force trauma, possibly from being hit by a car or striking a fixed object.

Taylor said it’s unclear whether the bird would have recovered on its own but also couldn’t say for sure whether it will survive. If it does, the organization will likely release it near Double Bluff, where it was captured.

This is the third eagle from the Freeland area the Wolf Hollow has taken in this year.

According to Taylor, inju-ries have been across board so there’s no single factor responsible.

“Freeland seems to be eagle center this year,” Drake agreed.

He added that the Jacobses were extraor-dinarily helpful in the res-cue, a compliment they took in stride. Migrating to Whidbey about 20 years ago from Southern California, they didn’t grow up with wildlife that’s so common in the Northwest and were happy to help.

“We both have a sense of preservation and how important that is,” Keith Jacobs said.

A widow has dropped a legal challenge to the Island County coroner’s determina-tion in the manner of her hus-band’s death.

Rachel P. Anderson was seeking a judicial review of Island County Coroner Robert Bishop’s determina-tion that her husband, Martin Anderson, died as a result of suicide on South Whidbey on Oct. 17, 2011.

The family had a substan-tial life insurance policy that would not pay out in the event of suicide, according to Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks.

“We agreed strongly with Dr. Bishop,” Banks said, “that the principled and correct decisions of an elected official cannot be overturned merely to assist an individual in her claim against an insurance company, even in tragic cir-cumstances such as this.”

The case was scheduled to go before a jury May 5, but Rachel Anderson and her attorney, John Peick of Bellevue, dismissed the case after a week of depositions, Banks said.

“I’m relieved that we’re not going to have to spend any more county money to preserve the determination,” Bishop said.

Anderson’s petition claimed that Martin Anderson’s death “was caused by unlawful or unnatural means, to-wit, homicide, accident or unin-tended adverse drug interac-tions.”

In court papers, Peick describes Martin Anderson

as a happily married father of two with no financial chal-lenges.

“On October 17, 2011, Martin Anderson had every-thing to live for,” Peick wrote.

Martin Anderson, a Bothell resident, left his work early on the day of his death and went to the couple’s recre-ational home in Clinton, court papers say.

Martin Anderson’s broth-er-in-law called the sheriff’s office and asked for a deputy to check on him because fam-ily members were unable to reach him by phone and he was due back at his Bothell home hours prior.

A deputy with the Island County Sheriff’s Office dis-covered Martin Anderson’s body in the backyard of a Clinton home while conduct-ing a welfare check, accord-ing to court documents.

Martin Anderson was face-down in the backyard of the vacation home. A small red-handled knife and sheath were found nearby. A small incision was located on his neck.

Investigators found no evi-dence of a struggle or break-in at the house.

The petition, however, alleged that Bishop made the determination without adequate investigation.

Banks, however, said he stands by Bishop, whom he considers one of the top coro-ners in the state.

In fact, a forensic patholo-gist the county hired as an expert witness agreed not to charge for the hours of pre-trial preparation, “out of their respect for Dr. Bishop’s high quality work,” Banks wrote.

Legal challenge over death nixed

Oak Harbor High School’s state cham-pionship culinary arts team didn’t place in the top five at nationals Monday. The top spot was taken by a team from Kansas.

But their mentor said they cooked flaw-lessly and had the time of their lives com-peting against the top teams in the nation at the National ProStart Invitational at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim, Calif.

“Cooking is subjective,” said Scott Fraser, owner of Frasers Gourmet Hideaway and mentor to the Oak Harbor students. “There are so many good teams. This is the best of 6,000.”

“It’s quite an accomplishment to be in the top 50.”

Fraser said he’d heard less than a point separated the top 15 teams. As of Tuesday, only the top five teams had been announced.

“We did well. We thought it went per-fectly,” said Patrick Salgado, the culinary team’s captain.

Salgado was accepted into a prestigious culinary arts school and plans to make this his life’s work. He said he loves cooking because “it can reflect your emotions as an art form.”

The other members of the team are Dylan Crogan, Angela Cueto, Lance Garon

and Patrick Punch. All are seniors at Oak Harbor High School enrolled in a culinary arts program led by teacher and chef Mary Arthur.

The students have spent hours daily preparing for the competition. While they were disappointed they didn’t place in the top five, Salgado said they were taking it in stride.

“We just want to thank the Oak Harbor community for allowing this to happen and supporting us with fundraising,” he said.

The students were judged on knife skills and preparation, including how they pack-aged and transported all of their supplies. The team brought everything with them on the plane.

Monday they had one hour to cook a three-course meal using nothing but two butane burners set up on folding tables.

No running water, no refrigerators and no fancy stoves.

They prepared a Pacific Rim–inspired menu consisting of an appetizer of Korean pork bone soup containing shrimp noodles and a slow poached egg; a main entree fea-turing lamb loin encrusted with pistachio and cranberry sausage served with oxtail barley and creamed stinging nettles; and a flocked white chocolate peanut butter bar with a banana cream sauce and brulee

Student makes state academic team

As much as Kay Daniel loved her bookstore and hated the idea of closing it, no other ending seemed pos-sible until the day her son intervened two years ago.

Trying to keep up with the latest trends and con-sumer habits and competing with technology had worn down Daniel. She figured 2013 would be the last year of the Book Rack store she and her husband had owned since 1983.

That is, until their son Matt Daniel showed up at the store one Sunday in March 2013 with a fresh idea.

He told his mom he was interested in taking over the family business.

“I burst out crying,” Kay Daniel recalled. “I didn’t want to close the store. Not just for Oak Harbor, this was my baby.”

Since Jan. 1, 2014, the Book Rack on Midway Boulevard has been owned and operated by Matt Daniel, 40, a 1993 Oak Harbor High School graduate.

He grew up at the store during his teens and was even savvy enough in the collectables trade to pay for a chunk of his college edu-cation from the sale of rare comic books.

He decided to put his wisdom, education from Humboldt State University and institutional knowledge from his days at the book-store to the test.

“I saw the potential of the

store,” Matt Daniel said. “I still do.”

Using a fresh set of eyes, Daniel set out transforming the store and installing his own personal touches and ideas, initially with some resistance from his mother, who now works for her son.

He put in a new section of nonfiction books, some-thing the store didn’t previ-ously sell, and carries new releases from the New York Times’ best-seller list, which he frequently updates.

He added a selection of about 100 classics in litera-ture, which he’s found are still in demand, even from his young customers.

“They still sell,” Matt Daniel said.

Daniel also amended the store’s policy on book trades to allow a portion of the credit from used books to go toward the purchase of new ones.

The changes have helped business with sales doubling since he took over.

It didn’t take long for his mother to trust her son’s instincts.

“He knew I couldn’t keep up with it anymore,” she said. “I had it so long, things had gotten stale. He’s given it the respect it’s really need-ed — the kind of fresh blood that was needed to turn it around.

“I can’t believe what he’s done.”

Books are only about a third of the business equa-

tion at his store, Matt Daniel said, with another third devoted to the comic books and another to the sale of miscellaneous items such as card games and toys.

All of it requires Daniel to be tuned into trends and the marketplace.

Daniel carries a wide selection of comic books, including those with variant covers that collectors seek.

He remembers well the comic book craze of the 1990s when collectors came seeking a particular brand that seemed to grow in value almost overnight.

“We ordered thousands of comic books a week,” Daniel said.

“We’d have lines waiting for us to open.”

Sales have normalized since then and the store now orders a few hundred comic books a week.

Daniel said he recently sold in bulk a large num-ber of comic books left over from the 1990s glut to one collector.

“I got tired of looking at

them,” he said.He’d rather look at

Funkos, a toy figure that originated in Everett that has exploded in popularity. His store carries many varieties from Iron Man to a Seattle Seahawks player.

The Book Rack is a national chain of individually owned and operated fran-chises. Oak Harbor’s store, located at 551 NE Midway Blvd., is the only one in the Pacific Northwest.

On May 2, the store will celebrate Free Comic Book Day, which will include an appearance by the Whidbey Island Rollergirls and a per-son dressed as Spider Man.

Keeping things fresh is as important to Matt Daniel as is getting to know his customers and providing the best service possible.

“Everything we sell you can get somewhere cheaper online,” he said. “We pride ourselves in giving people really good service. We know their names and what they want.”


RIBBON CUTTING: NW Bookkeeping Services, LLC will hold a ribbon-cutting for its new location 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday, April 28, at 270 SE Pioneer Way. The Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce will conduct the ribbon-cutting. Snacks and refreshments will be provided. BUSINESS

For Debra Vaughn, mov-ing back to Oak Harbor is like slipping on com-fortable shoes.

The Whidbey News-Times’ newest staff member is also an Oak Harbor High School gradu-ate who has moved back home with her two children to be close to family and to continue her career in jour-nalism.

“I loved growing up here, and it doesn’t feel that differ-ent 20 years later, although that one-way road downtown is throwing me off,” Vaughn said. “And so is the kraken.”

Vaughn pointed out there have been many changes to Oak Harbor since she was a child.

“When I was a kid, there was no Walmart and no Starbucks, but there was Chris’s Bakery,” Vaughn said.

“I wasted a lot of my allow-ance on candy at Masten’s Variety Store.”

And while things have changed, Vaughn’s life is also making a full circle. In high school, her journalism teacher was Jim Waller, the Whidbey News-Times’ current sports editor.

“How cool is it I get to work with him now in a newsroom?” Vaughn said. “I do blame him for getting me involved in newspapers. It’s a tough habit to break.”

“It’s also tough for me to call him anything but Mr. Waller.”

Since that time, Vaughn has amassed a decade of daily newspaper experi-ence, most of it at The Daily Herald in Everett.

“Debra was an outstand-ing student in high school, and I am not surprised she has built a successful career in journalism,” Waller said.

Vaughn said she looks forward to reacquainting herself with Oak Harbor and its residents.

Matt Daniel is owner of the Book Rack on Midway Boulevard, a business started by his parents in 1983. Daniel, a Class of ‘93 Oak Harbor High School graduate, took over last year and is adding modern touches to the store.

$200,000, statistics show that the inventory has gradually declined over the last year and the number of pending sales has spiked over the last three months, accord-ing to data provided by Windermere.

What is available is sell-ing very fast and without a lot of new construction, and demand is starting to exceed the inventory, Hovey said.

The number of new home permits issued from the City of Oak Harbor has increased slightly over the last few years, but not substantially, according to city staff.

In 2012, 40 permits were issued; in 2013, 54 permits issued; and in 2014, 61 per-mits issued, according to the city.

As a result, brokers are reporting that houses are sitting on the market 20 days or less in many cases.

“Every spring the market tends to pick up,” said Patty Fakema with Land Title. “Sales have increased but then there’s no inventory. It’s busier and there’s more back log because everyone wants everything yester-day.”

“It’s going to be an inter-esting year,” Fakema said.

Eric Mitten, owner of Windermere Real Estate offices in Coupeville and Oak Harbor, said he’s been “really surprised” by this year’s mar-ket.

“As of the end of March, availability of homes is the

lowest in my 14 years of own-ership,” Mitten said.

Mitten said the shortage was likely caused by the economic downturn in 2009 when builders stop build-ings, “creating a pent up demand.”

A healthy market tends to have six months’ worth of available inventory on the market, but this year the inventory is down to about two months worth, Mitten said.

“We’re kind of already extremely tight,” Mitten said.

While the market tends to pick up in the spring, Mitten said sales increased by 30 percent during the first three months of the year.

“It’s causing me to be more busy,” said Kathy Collantes with Go Realty. “You have to work so hard to find some-thing.”

“We’re going to deplete our inventory very quickly.”

To meet the demand, Collantes said she’s been reaching out to people who’ve given the slightest inkling they might sell their home to tell them “now’s the time.”

The good news, at least for now, is that prices are staying relatively static, something that might change later in the year, Mitten said.

“Prices are holding, mar-ket times are considerably down from this time last year and we are experiencing our lowest inventory since 2007-2008,” said Jason McFadyen,

president of the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce. “Multiple offers are becom-ing more common again.”

The lack of available homes for sale is also spilling into the rental market.

“And it’s not just the sales market,” said McFadyen, a Realtor who specializes in rentals and property manage-ment. “We are seeing vacan-cy rates close to 1 percent in our office. People are calling and saying, ‘I’ll take that one (rental) because they have missed out on other homes in Oak Harbor.”

Mitten also said that build-ers are becoming increasing-

ly more active which means that more houses will hope-

fully become available in the coming years.

Earth Day

Refuse to pass down a planet in perilEditor,

It hit the news last week that there is only one remaining male northern white rhinoceros left in the world. A population that numbered more than 2,000 in 1960 is now down to exactly five. Hippy environmentalists of the 1960s could afford the luxury of senti-mentalism toward rhinos and sunshine and trees, but today’s more urgent environmentalism is rooted in the prac-tical and mature recognition that we’re simply running out of time. Meeting our shared responsibility toward other people means proceeding much more lightly on the planet than we have been.

Americans first celebrated Earth Day in 1970 after media coverage of a Cuyahoga River fire focused attention on factory dumping of toxic chemicals. The event helped usher in a wave of state and federal legislation such as the Clean Water Act and the cre-ation of the Environmental Protection Administration. These institutions suc-cessfully attacked some of America’s worst pollution, and we should be grateful that our grandparents acted strongly to protect us in these ways.

Forward 45 years. The human popu-lation has roughly doubled and will increase another 400 in the few minutes you spend reading this. The footprint of each individual has also increased as standards of living rise worldwide.

The impacts of today’s 7.3 billion people add up unremittingly, enough that they now match the planet’s capacity to absorb them. The journal “Science” described the situation in a January paper that assessed that we have exceeded the Earth’s capac-ity for sustainable living in four of nine important measures, including extinc-tion rate, nitrogen and phosphorous loads on the ocean, deforestation, and atmospheric carbon dioxide level.

As a result, today’s world is one with alarm bells going off everywhere. Ocean acidification, dead zones, cli-mate change, groundwater contamina-tion, declining biodiversity: These are preventable problems. Today’s envi-ronmentalist answers the alarm bells because ignoring them means unques-tionably reducing the quality of life for our next generation, and that’s not our way.

Today’s environmentalist acknowl-edges that we will choose between a world with rhinos and a world without. Because our way is to leave things bet-ter for the next generation, not worse, I ask you to join me in refusing to pass down a planet in peril. Refuse to ask

your kids and grandkids to adapt to a climate that no humans have ever lived in. Take a stand against the carbon pollution that causes ocean acidifica-tion. Refuse to accede to irreversible extinctions.

Earth Day: It’s not really about the Earth.

Environment

Estuaries important to salmon survivalEditor,

William Burnett wrote a scathing criticism of former commissioner Angie Homola’s environmental efforts. Certainly Angie was and continues to be a dedicated environmentalist. But is she over the top and unreasonable as Mr. Burnett insists as he points out her interest in converting Swan (or Bos) Lake to a salmon rearing estuary?

Natural estuaries for rearing salmon fry have been disappearing with urban development, and the more we can get, the better. No one seems to know that better than our local native tribes who have depended on the salmon for centuries.

I was asked four years ago to run for mayor of the City of Oak Harbor since our existing mayor and city council were not listening to the citizens of Oak Harbor during the Pioneer Way project. I did run for mayor and was overwhelm-ingly elected.

I have not forgotten who I work for and whose money it is we are spending. I continue to give back 20 percent of my salary as promised and continue to focus

on the priorities I ran on, which are public safety, economic development, and a more open and transparent government. I am proud of what I have been able to accomplish with such an adversarial city council.

It is because of that city council and the outlook of it not changing that I am choosing not to run again for the position of mayor. I have no desire to put myself through another four years of trying to work with a city council that has acted like children and has done everything in its power to undermine any authority that I have had.

The one bright spot on the city council continues to be Councilman Jim Campbell. He continues to meet and listen to the citizens of Oak Harbor. He questions our actions to ensure that what we are doing is in the best interest of Oak Harbor.

I would strongly suggest that the residents of Oak Harbor vote for and elect individuals to the city council and mayor’s office that have their best interests in mind, not those that come from the same group of friends who have consistently made bad decisions and are thus hurting our citizens. We need individuals on our council that represent the citizens not the same old power structure that has brought those bad decisions to our city.

The City of Oak Harbor is about to make at least $113 mil-lion mistake with our new wastewater treatment facility, which will unnecessarily burden our citizens for the rest of their lives. The existing city council will push this project through no matter what the cost is. The citizens of Oak Harbor are still paying on a monthly basis for our last mistake, the Pioneer Way project, and now are about to see their wastewater rates be one of the highest in Washington as well as see our main park, Windjammer Park, lose space due to an ever-increasing size of a new wastewater treatment plant. I have no desire to be associated with such a mistake.

I have learned quite a bit since taking office. I have learned the importance of patience and developed thicker skin. I thank the citizens of Oak Harbor for allowing me to represent them over the last four years.

n Scott Dudley is mayor for the City of Oak Harbor.

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.

LOOKING BACK: 125 YEARSStork brings tripletsto Oak Harbor couple

Here’s what was happening in the news this week:

100 years ago n In advocating the incorporation of the town of Oak Harbor,

the editor of the News relied on more than 30 years’ experience in this state and Oregon in which he had taken a hand in push-ing forward a number of former small towns. The editor asked all voters to look at this matter form a reasonable, unprejudiced standpoint.

n The long, drawn-out case of Holloway vs. Geck came to a close in Superior Court in Coupeville. This was a case in which Holloway sued for an injunction to restrain Geck from draining his lands by a system of ditches which flowed onto the premises of the plaintiff. It was believed by many that this case was in the nature of a test of a long-mooted question and would result per-haps in the organization of drainage districts where necessary.

75 years agon The free public auction to be held next week would be the

biggest affair of its kind ever to be held in Oak Harbor. Judging from the variety and number of offerings available and sched-uled to be sold at the auction, just about everything under the sun would be offered by North Whidby persons.

n The stork was traveling as regular a schedule over Coupeville as was the Seattle-Vancouver airliner. The only dif-ference was that the stork stopped three times in as many days. The long-billed assistant to the census taker delivered three bundles to Harpole Maternity Home. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Kester of Oak Harbor had three babies, two girls and one boy.

50 years agon The ambulance operator serving North Whidbey, Homer

Bakker, was forced to quit business because of economic necessity. Bakker said he was forced to sell his car, get a loan and sometimes go without eating to stay in business.

n Lt. Michael Pierce told an audience of Rotarians that the importance of Viet Nam is inestimable, and that it would be a mistake to pull out now.

n There would no longer be a Miss Firecracker at the July Fourth celebration. Her name was changed to Miss Fourth of July. The chairman of the events said the new name would make the title a little more important and dignified.

25 years agon Shipping garbage to a landfill out-of-county was the cheap-

est and most flexible way to manage county waste, Island County commissioners decided. The commissioners unani-mously adopted recommendations of the county’s solid waste advisory committee to transport wastes to a regional landfill, reduce the source of wastes and encourage recycling.

n The newly completed Hal Ramaley Memorial Park near City Beach Park was given a final weeding, cultivating and cleanup when Oak Harbor Rotarians took over the job. The dedication ceremonies would take place the Friday of Holland Happening, followed by an open house at City Hall, honoring the city’s 75th anniversary as an incorporated city.

n Looking Back is compiled from the Whidbey News-Times’ archives as the newspaper celebrates 125 years in business and the City of Oak Harbor its 100th anniversary of incorpora-tion.

Mayor Scott Dudley recently commented in the Whidbey News-Times that he has some cost-cutting ideas on the pro-posed wastewater treatment plant. I am delighted to hear that and am

looking forward to his presentation. One idea that he has suggested was to consider another site, more specifically the Freund site.

Initially, the public considered more than 30 possible sites and the Freund site was included. Upon becoming mayor, Mr. Dudley directed staff to reconsider the site again, and a geotechnical report was provided in November 2012. The geotechnical report revealed that a minimum of 53-foot pilings would be required. In addition, the site would have to be raised to an elevation of seven feet above the flood plain. This is required to be eligible for federal funding.

As a result of the geotechnical report, this site was determined to be a higher risk than other sites and was therefore rejected. Since 2012, no new informa-tion has been presented to change that decision. Perhaps the mayor has

discovered new information. If he has new information, let’s add it to the preliminary design and cost-estimating process (30,60,90 percent) to see how it tests out financially.

Information regarding the pre-liminary review process is available through the city’s webpage at www.oakharborcleanwater.org

Preliminary designs and estimates are functions of decision-making progressions to get to the final cost estimate on large projects. They are not final prices for construction.

During the past two years, the staff has been processing the necessary permitting paperwork through no fewer than 22 federal, state, local and tribal agencies. This is time-consuming and no small task. In addition, the State Department of Ecology (DOE) permit expires in August 2016 for the existing plant, and the new treatment plant is required to be in operation by December 2017. The DOE also has the authority to impose a sewer connection moratorium and/or fines for regulatory non-compliance. A delay could also sub-ject this project to construction inflation-ary costs that will cause every aspect of the project to escalate financially.

To date, approximately $4 million has been spent to get to where we are. This cost is not a result of loose spending practices; this is a large and compli-cated facility requiring more than just a shopping center approach. Walking away from $4 million of work product

and restarting it at a later date will cost millions more than to finish the project by 2017.

The replacement of the existing plant is not optional. This project is not elective surgery, it is required. A late delivery of this facility will result in the loss of currently approved government low interest loans for millions of dollars. There will also be a lost opportunity to obtain historically low bond interest rates where government funding is not available.

If the mayor has a strategy to sup-port his cost-cutting comments, I am willing to consider any viable option to help keep our utility rates affordable. He has the authority to present a well-thought-out plan and the sooner the better. Time is of the essence.

The city has a skilled team admin-istering this project and is supported by experienced consulting groups who have completed multi-million dollar treatment plants. They have the skill and knowledge to successfully manage this project at the most affordable cost possible to our rate payers.

For accurate and up-to-date informa-tion, I encourage our citizens to get involved, follow the project’s progress on the city’s webpage, www.oakharbor cleanwater.org, and to attend our public meetings. Knowledge is powerful.

MORE LETTERS TO THE EDITORSome think environmen-

talists are off their rockers for pointing out global warm-ing and its effects on salmon survival.

The destructive effects of warm water on young salmon have been documented.

Our island has been blessed with some excellent

local historians. Pictorial histories by both Peggy Darst Townsdin and the late Dorothy Neil have win-tertime photos of people ice skating in the Oak Harbor area.

Our late former Sheriff Arnie Freund told me that in his youth he used to take his car out on the ice of Cranberry Lake for winter-

time fun. How long has it been since

we’ve had winter weather like that? It makes it hard to argue against global warming.

If we want to preserve one of the most impor-tant features of our Pacific Northwest, we need to give estuary-improvement mea-sures consideration.

Projects to increase

salmon-rearing estuaries will be presented to the county’s Water Resources Advisory Committee 2:30-6 p.m. Thursday, May 7, at the Heller Road Fire Station in Oak Harbor. It is open to the public. Come and share your views.

Female students from across Whidbey Island were honored with scholarships and financial stipends April 14 by the American Association of University Women.

AAUW works throughout the year to raise funds to give $2,000 scholarships to each of the three public high schools and stipends to junior girls selected by their teachers as outstanding students in math, science and technology.

Purpose of the scholarships and awards is to support girls with an inter-est and strong motivation for higher education to be able to attend colleges and especially to foster those who show a talent with STEM subjects, according to the association.

Three $2,000 scholarships were awarded to:

n Amanda Hoesman-Foley, Coupeville High School, who wants to be an elementary school teacher. She is eligible for the Presidential Scholarship Award, which shows her love of academ-ics. She has been a student body officer throughout high school. She has par-ticipated in People to People programs, learning about other cultures.

n Isla Dubendorf, South Whidbey High School, who is also a Washington Scholars Award winner. She is interested in veterinary medicine and was admitted as one of the select group of honors research students in Washington state.

n Eri Horikawa, Oak Harbor High School, who showed commitment to others by volunteering at Whidbey

General Hospital and hopes to be a speech therapist after attending the University of Washington.

The association also awarded stipends for students to attend a new program called Tech Trek, launched last year to provide middle school girls with a camp experience while immersing them in sci-ence, math, engineering and technology.

Jessica Koeberle, who started the Tech Trek program, introduced the fol-lowing middle school awardees: Hannah Samuels, North Whidbey Middle School; Ayla Randolph, Oak Harbor Middle School; Emma Smith, Home Connection; Anna Dion, Coupeville Middle School; and Arianna Marshall, Langley Middle School.

Teachers also nominated junior girls in high school to receive small stipends

for being leading achievers in science, math and technology. The three sci-ence winners were Patricia Sabian, Oak Harbor High School; Makana Stone, Coupeville High School; and Amara Garibyan, South Whidbey High School.

Mathematics winners were Mallorie Mitchum, South Whidbey High School; Destiny Cleary, Coupeville High School; and Helena Webster, Oak Harbor High School. In technology these girls excelled: McKenzie Bailey, Coupeville High School; Katherine Matazzoni, Oak Harbor High School; and Lucy Clements, South Whidbey High School.

The girls showed a range of inter-ests, combining humanitarian purposes with environmental and architectural interests as well as a knack for graphic design and yearbook innovations.

The waters of Penn Cove will be dotted with a fleet of sailboats this weekend as the Oak Harbor High School sail-ing team hosts the Northwest Interscholastic Sailing Association Double Handed District Championships Friday through Sunday, April 24-26.

The Coupeville Wharf will be the launching point for the tournament, which will fea-ture about 160 sailors from more than 20 schools. The boat launch will be closed to the public during the regatta.

Practice races will be held Friday, then the competition runs from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Saturday and 9:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. Sunday.

The NWISA champion-ship is the final fleet race of the season for the district

(one of seven in the United States). The winners of the district regatta will qualify to represent the NWISA at the national championships at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md., May 8-10.

This weekend, each school will have two two-man (skip-per and crew) boats, A divi-sion and B division. The A division pair will race twice, and then the B division will sail the next two races. Rotations continue through-out the regatta; the two boats’ scores are combined to determine the team score.

Varsity and junior varsity teams will be racing simulta-neously during the regatta.

The Oak Harbor High School sailing team, coached by Erik Mann, put together a solid season heading into the district championship.

Oak Harbor’s best finish

this season was March 21 and 22 at the combined divi-sion regatta at Sand Point in Seattle, where it placed fourth out of 19 teams.

Junior skipper Max Van Dam and crew freshman Dylan Angell guided the A division boat to six top-10 finishes (including a second, two thirds and a fourth) in eight races.

In the Islands Cup in Anacortes April 11 and 12, Oak Harbor finished 17th out of 32 teams. Freshman skip-per Jordan Wood-Pina and crew junior Matt Hallahan tied for 10th with several top-10 finishes.

Van Dam and Angell also finished in the top 10 several times and placed in the upper half of the fleet.

“On Saturday in some of the windiest and toughest conditions we have seen all

season, the team had a tre-mendous day, sailing very consistently and ending the first day of the regatta tied for fifth place,” Mann said.

Oak Harbor placed 16th

out of 29 teams at the Mount Baker Rowing and Sailing Center March 28. Van Dam and crew Luca Fellows tied for 12th in the individual standings. Fellows, who is

from South Whidbey High School, served as a guest crew member.

South Whidbey is attempt-ing to form its own team, Mann said.

Al Koetje donned a Dutch hat Tuesday, offering a preview of what’s in store for Holland Happening paradegoers Saturday.

Koetje borrowed the hat from a good friend and found it fits nice and snug.

He figures it will be a good touch while he rides in a sleek yel-low convertible as grand marshal of the Holland Happening parade, which begins at 11 a.m.

“This one’s pretty comfortable,” Koetje said. “It’s sure better than having to walk with wooden shoes. I’ve done that a few times. You put on a couple pair of socks so you can fit into the Dutch shoes then go klompen down the street.”

This is the first time for Koetje to be recognized in such a way during Oak Harbor’s annual cel-ebration of Dutch heritage.

Oak Harbor’s mayor from 1972-96, Koetje was touched by the honor in a city he’s called home for 57 years.

“He was very humbled to be asked,” said Christine Cribb, executive director of the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce, which runs the event that signals the start of Oak Harbor’s festival season.

Holland Happening commences at 5:30 p.m. Friday with the authentic Dutch Dinner at the First Reformed Church and wraps up Sunday.

The carnival starts Thursday.Koetje has been around to see a

lot of Holland Happenings. At 84, he owns a pretty good perspective of the city landscape and still fol-lows local politics with a watchful eye.

“I miss the opportunity to work with the people,” he said.

A Holland Happening committee selected Koetje as grand marshal. He is from Dutch descent with his last name translating to “cow.” He’s also widely known for the real estate company that bears his name that he and his brother founded.

“He is Oak Harbor,” Cribb said.Koetje is proud of his Dutch

heritage and his city.“Oak Harbor is a wonderful

place to live,” he said. “The Dutch contributions that have been made in Oak Harbor in the schools and churches and in business and government and medicine are all part of the Dutch heritage and I’m thankful that I was able to partici-pate in a small way.”

The Holland Happening grand parade will feature at least 65 entries.

It will start on Pioneer Way and continue on to Bayshore Drive and back to Pioneer, ending near the

Ace Hardware store.The street fair has increased

to nearly 90 vendors this year, up from 64 in 2014.

Among the vendors will be Patrick Christensen, who is work-ing to bring his family’s Chris’ Bakery business back to Oak Harbor.

The Dutch Stroopwafel Company also will be serving Dutch treats.

The Lynden Bakery is not com-ing to Oak Harbor this year, said River Powers, the festival’s event coordinator.

Entertainment includes the tra-ditional Klompen Canal Races.

have been at odds over a long series of issues, from his decision to fire a number of department managers and his effort to cut elected officials’ ben-efits, to his proposal to divert chamber of commerce funding, and even the construction of a crosswalk.

“We have a council that continues to fight me every step of the way,” he said, adding that Campbell is the one council member who put the commu-nity ahead of politics.

“What will it matter if I’m in office if we continue to have Councilman Almberg, Councilwoman Munns and Councilwoman Tara Hizon on the council?” he asked rhetorically.

Rick Almberg, Beth Munns and Tara Hizon are all seeking re-election.

Tuesday, Almberg faulted Dudley’s lack of leadership for the friction between the mayor and council.

“This mayor is very good at tearing things down, but he never has a solu-tion for putting things back together,” he said.

Dudley said his main source of con-sternation is the skyrocketing costs of the sewage treatment plant; he has proposed that the council take a step back to consider another location. But, he said, he believes the council is going to move forward with the project no matter what and he doesn’t want to be associated with such a huge mistake.

Dudley conceded that it’s been a tumultuous three-plus years since he was elected, but he points to the coun-cil as the cause. He said they are

essentially a group of friends that want to preserve a traditional power struc-ture in the city.

Campbell agrees that he may be going up against “the good ol’ boys’ club,” but he said he’s buoyed by the sheer number of people who asked him to run.

He said there’s a perception that he was the one councilman aligned with Dudley, but he stresses that he’s his own man and thinks for himself. He said he was supportive of the former mayors Jim Slowik and Patty Cohen.

“I guess I have a reputation for sup-porting the mayor,” he said. “That’s OK. I support the system when it’s doing the right thing.”

In what will likely be the biggest campaign issue, Campbell said he agrees with Dudley that it would be smart to re-look at the sewage treat-ment plant project; the estimated cost of construction alone has ballooned from $60 million to either $98 million or $113 million, depending on which contractor one considers.

Campbell said there might be con-sequences for a delay in the project, but it would be worth it to ensure that it’s done right.

Campbell said he has a different management style than Dudley. He said there is a morale problem among staff members, which he said began when Dudley came into office and fired a people in management positions.

Campbell said it might not make sense for regular staff members to fear for their jobs, as the mayor only has regular contact with department managers. Nevertheless, Campbell said he can bring peace to the cul-ture of fear through strong, supportive

leadership.Campbell said he doesn’t fault Dudley

for his straightforward, confrontational style, but he describes his own manage-ment style as “professional.”

After retiring as a Navy chief petty officer, Campbell had a 24-year career with Lockheed Missiles and Space. His last assignment was as a senior manager serving as a liaison to the Royal Navy Trident Program in Scotland.

Campbell previously ran for Island County commissioner as a Republican, but was knocked out of the race in the 2012 primary.

As a councilman, Campbell was the city’s representative on the Island Transit board. He resigned last October after financial problems came to light and urged all the other mem-bers to follow suit.

Dudley said he will be glad to endorse Campbell for mayor. He claimed the best way for citizens to keep their sewage rates under control is to vote for Campbell.

Tuesday, Severns said he welcomes Campbell into the race; he said the citizens deserve to have a choice in their leadership.

“I wish the best for Scott in what-ever his future holds,” he added.

Both Severns and Almberg said they would be willing to listen to any thoughtful proposal Dudley may have for changes to the wastewater treat-ment plant project.

Next year, all three municipalities on Whidbey Island will have new mayors.

In addition to Dudley, Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard and Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy have announced they won’t seek re-election.

the walk out.If teachers do approve the

walk out, the school district will likely handle it like a snow day and cancel school, said Oak Harbor Public Schools spokeswoman Kellie Tormey. Parents would be informed in advance and need to keep stu-dents home.

The day would be made up May 26, a day that was already set aside as an emergency clo-sure make-up day.

On May 1, all evening events and athletic activities will be held as scheduled.

Tormey emphasized this decision comes from teachers, not from the district adminis-tration and had no other com-ment.

Teachers will spend the walk out day writing state law-makers and picketing to let the community know the reasons

for the walk out. They also may send a team of teachers to Olympia to talk with legisla-tors.

“This isn’t about Oak Harbor,” Ridle said. “We’re doing this because we’re unhappy with Olympia and we appreciate the community’s support.”

The teacher’s union wants to cause as little disruption to students and their families, Ridle said. They picked the May 1 date because it gives the district adequate time to alert parents and doesn’t disrupt state standardized tests being administered this week.

Other districts that have voted to walk out include Arlington, Lakewood, Stanwood-Camano, Mount Vernon, Blaine and Sedro-Woolley. Thousands of educa-tors plan to rally on the steps of the state capitol Saturday, a day before the regular legisla-tive session ends, according to a prepared statement from the union.
