Buses, bikes and pedestrians offer some alternative to the car driving. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council (KRCC) is working on the first phase of a county-wide Multi-Modal Transportation Plan.
A vision for island transportation By JESSICA HOCH For the Review
The automobile has been king of the road for most of a century but there are changes afoot. There is movement in the more progressive regions of the United States toward creating plans that will at least develop more of a share-the-road approach to allow other modes of transportation to be more than just second-class citizens dodging high-speed projectiles on America’s arterials. The Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council (KRCC) is undertaking the first phase of a county-wide Multi-Modal Transportation Plan, which is well-timed since state and federal legislative initiatives address the importance of active transportation. Meaning, there likely will be more grant funding for such an approach in the future. The plan has promise because it touches many positives for communities, including: • Public health – Safe opportunities for cycling and walking; • Safety – Facilities that consider the needs of all modes, which will reduce the frequency of acci-
dents and fatalities; • Economy – Integrating auto, freight, air, transit, bike and pedestrian modes into new transportation facilities; • Environment – Fewer emissions mean healthier citizens and a cleaner environment; • Mobility – Less congestion, leading to more efficiency in movement of goods and people; • Equity – Realistic alternatives to automobile trips provide independence for more vulnerable users, such as children and seniors; • Community – With walkable access and more livable neighborhoods, stronger connections socially and economically are developed. Bainbridge Island is a key element to the KRCC plan because of its location between two mainland counties (Kitsap and King) and its progressive residents, despited the fact it is currently dependent on the automobile and is dominated by roads that are generally unfriendly to bicyclists and pedestrians. The No. 1 headache, of courts, is the state highway (SR-305) that runs (north-south) right

Putting the highway aside for now, there is much to do to get the island more multi-modal. Don Willott, Bainbridge’s representative to KRCC, believes an important first step is getting the City of Bainbridge Island totally on board, beginning with revising its guidelines to ensure that plans involving facilities and roads are modernized so that they merge rather than stand separated as is often the case now. “For example, there’s a medical complex being built just south of the First Baptist Church and west of the 305,” he said. “They could easily connect the Sound to Olympics (STO) trail with a Kitsap Transit bus stop right there SEE TRANSPORTATION, A3
Half of the eight candidates seeking four City Council seats are now into their fifth month of campaigning, but it won’t get any easier down the homestretch. Islanders will begin receiving ballots in their mailboxes on Friday after the the Kitsap County Election Division sent them out on Wednesday. As incumbent Barry Peters put it on Thursday: “I’ve been standing at the ferry terminal to welcome commuters in the morning and I’ll be doing even more of that once the ballots are in their hands.” Peters has done this before and enjoys the process, while the other seven candidates are new to it but are also embracing it. They realize that on Bainbridge it’s all about meeting and greeting. They’re also attending numerous informal events in supporters’
homes, going to city meetings and candidate forums, knocking on doors and shaking hands in front of Safeway or other local businesses. “It’s time consuming,” said North Ward candidate Melanie Keenan, “but what’s encouraging is how many great people there are out there. We talk about not getting discouraged and getting involved because collectively I think this community has some great talent and together we can make a difference.” Dave Ward, who’s running against Joe Levan for the Central Ward seat, said he likes to stand at the ferry terminal with his Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. “People are more interested in the family dog,” he said, “but we get to talking and it can get very stimulating. People like to talk politics here and their responses are mostly positive and encouraging.” He added that he hasn’t run to SEE ELECTION, A11
Civil Service Commission posts remain abandoned By RICHARD D. OXLEY Staff Writer
The city Council voted to dismiss an Ethics Board complaint and a petition for removal of two Civil Service Commission members during Wednesday’s council meeting, finally putting to rest an ongoing controversy with the commission. The dismissals came after resignations from David Hand and George McKinney this week that has left the city commission unmanned. In light of the resignations, which included Robert Fernandez resigning on Oct. 10, Councilor Bob Scales made two motions during the council’s meeting. The first was to dismiss the petition for removal of Hand and McKinney from the commission since both have now resigned; it passed unanimously. Scales also presented a motion to dismiss a complaint to the
Ethics Board against Hand and McKinney. Both the petition and the complaint to the ethics board were made by former CSC Secretary/Chief Examiner Kim Hendrickson. Council members Bill Knobloch and Debbi Lester both voiced dissenting opinions over dismissing an Ethics Board complaint when they had not had an opportunity to view a decision on the matter made by the board on Monday. “I have no dog in this fight, but I would ask that you respect our Ethics Board,” said Lester. In contrast, others felt that since all commissioners have resigned, there are no further actions to be taken. “They have had to endure a constant onslaught,” Scales said. “They are no longer our commissioners so what is the purpose to continue with this? ... It’s moot.” SEE CIVIL SERVICE, A10

AROUND THE ISLAND Library seeks treasures In preparation to celebrate its 50th anniversary, the Bainbridge Public Library is seeking archival materials to visually represent its history. Photos, articles, documents, and memorabilia – old and more recent – will be digitally scanned and archived from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct. 22 in the Bainbridge Library meeting room. Volunteers will scan their items and document the information to be shared at two upcoming archiving events. You won’t have to part with the items.

YouTown in your town City Council member Debbie Lester hosted a presentation at city hall Wednesday for a new mobile method of communication between the city and Bainbridge Island residents. YouTown is a mobile app that connects governments with citizens. The app takes all information on a city from maps to a mayor’s twitter feed, or even up-todate 911 calls, and funnels it into a smart phone. YouTown founder Michael Reidyk and company representative Sid Burgess made a presentation of what they called a “one-stop government.” The app, which is free to both users and gov-

ernments, was launched in March and already has around 250 city and county governments using it, according to Reidyk. Lester is spearheading bringing YouTown to the city and introduced the app to the council at Wednesday’s meeting. The app is currently available for iPhone and Android operating systems. YouTown plans to release a version of the app for BlackBerrys soon.

Council discusses Shoreline Master Plan City council member Kirsten Hytopoulos addressed the Shoreline Master Plan at Wednesday’s council meeting, which the city’s Planning Commission
is expected to have ready by the end of the year. Hytopoulos proposed that the council formally
agree to step back and view the SMP in February after the new city council is in place. She also noted that
waiting until February gives the public time to view the draft of the SMP and would allow time for public meet-
ings on the issue. All present council members agreed to the proposal.

on 305. Planning needs to address those issues when building around roads, potential trails and intersections.” Willott believes many opportunities have been overlooked in the past, but the multi-modal approach is key because it makes communities, especially ones like Winslow with a large population of seniors, more livable because there is a large opportunity for an immense network of paths. “Really, it’s a very simple philosophy,” Willott said. “Islanders need to work with the county and state, especially when it comes to providing ingress and egress with the highway.” The big goal, of course, is building a 10-foot-wide trail that is

safely separated as it runs parallel to the highway. It is currently part of the Puget Sound Regional Council’s 2040 transportation plan. Willott and others are convinced that with good planning the money will eventually be found. “There are a lot of things you can do that don’t cost much money and sometimes are the best way to get started,” he said. “I believe we’re headed in the right direction because we will become more self-sufficient. If that happens, then our trails and transportation system will be built from the bottom up. The money will eventually come.”

Pedestrians, bikes and autos share the narrow Agate Pass Bridge between Bainbridge Island and Kitsap Peninsula. Kitsap Transit (KT) is in the process of retrofitting its fleet with more efficient vehicles, according to Richard Hayes, executive director of the transit system. “We are about 10 years behind the car world, but we are working on it,” said Hayes. KT is in the midst of “rightsizing” its fleets by using big buses as needed and smaller vehicles whenever possible. A new gizmo in buses today is tracking passengers to help
transit authorities determine the usability of routes and what can be reduced or eliminated to save money. Hayes estimated that double-decker buses will start heading down SR 305 in the next four to five years; the buses carry double the passengers while using roughly the same amount of gas, and also save room at the crowded Bainbridge Ferry Terminal. A hybrid bus project is also in the works.

As the popularity and technology of electric vehicles grow, the island’s main street is prepared with two new 220-volt Blink charging stations on Winslow Way. The stations were funded as part of a grant issued to the green technology company Ecotality, which was given a multi-million general grant to install recharging stations around Puget Sound and western Washington. The stations will be available at parking spots near Blackbird Bakery. Kate Ruffing, who volunteers with Sustainable Bainbridge, said she was inspired by the community transportation conversation enough to invest in an electric assist bike for day-to-day use on the island. “We use it as our alternative transportation and anything that needs to be done on the island gets done on the bike now,” said Ruffing. “It has been wonderful, but has really opened my eyes to areas of improvement needed to make this safer and a more convenient way to get around.”

“We would like to see an electric bus program that will take care of morning and evening rush hour service with a recharging station overnight and the midday opportunity charge,” said Hayes. “Parking buses on Bainbridge to use the natural charging site would allow us not to run back to Poulsbo at the end of the day. But it takes three to four years to even get the permits on Bainbridge to put the charging station on site.” Hayes encouraged the community to urge local lawmakers to speed up the process as it could also serve as an electric vehicle recharging station and carpool facility. “We move slow because we don’t have 300 engineers or $2 to $3 million to throw at a better bus,” said Hayes. KT created a new application for riders to track buses using GPS technology for Nokia phones, and they hope to expand that application to other carriers in the coming years. Another initiative is improvement to the park and ride at Day Road and the creation of more bike hubs along SR 305. By 2020, KT has a goal to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels and decrease annual fuel consumption by 18 percent.

IN OUR OPINION
Elect councilors whose agendas are left behind
T
here’s no doubt that people, especially those living in a small town whose populace has a high political IQ and loves a spirited power struggle, have a tendency to want to put neighbors in office who share their own political or consensus-building views. That makes sense, at least if it’s done on an individual basis and important personality traits such as morality, ethics, and honesty are also taken into account. The political process can become a little more contentious when three or four positions for a city council come up for election every two years – as occurs on Bainbridge Island. This year, there are four candidates and the “vote as a block” factions are out in full force. This is elemental Politics 101, of course, especially on an island where everyone has an opinion on everything. Fortunately for the politically inclined, biennially those who consider themselves in the driver’s seat and those who want to take over the wheel initially search for candidates with whom they are aligned. They may then attempt to sway those wishywashy islanders who generally have better things to do but will still cast a ballot each November. It’s the tried-and-true American way of elections, except that on this island there’s no omnipresent television or radio stations transmitting smiley faces and ostentatious messages. This is the preferred campaign mode at a time when superficiality and personal concealment often pay off at the polls. What happens here? Ask your neighbor or flip a coin? Not all islanders are so indifferent; some keep an open mind until they have learned enough about a candidate’s qualities to make a knowledgeable decision. It’s the old seek-and-thou-shallfind method, which appears to be rare these days since negativity is less of a hassle than thinking openly and impartially. SEE OPINION, A7

LETTERS SMP
Misinterpretations are often accepted as fact Decisions on the update of the Bainbridge Island Shoreline Master Program (SMP) must be based on facts and scientific interpretation. Unfortunately, statements, whose factual basis is suspect, have been made in some of our discussions. They have been successfully challenged but often have persisted. In order to make progress we must correct misinterpretations in order to design a SMP which is of uniformly high quality. I illustrate the problem by describing a recent example. I attended a meeting on Sept. 26, that was organized by the Bainbridge Shoreline Homeowners. One of the three speakers made reference to a publication he had seen on a visit to the city Planning Department. He could not identify the origin of the publication, but reported that the publication asserted that “protecting a house from erosion by armoring the shoreline is no longer allowed.” This statement understandably alarmed people who are concerned about assaults on rights to protect their property. I pointed out from the floor that recently the city has approved many bulkhead permits. In fact I have installed a bulkhead to prevent erosion of the roadway in front of my house. My comment was not responded to by the speakers. After the meeting, I asked Ryan Ericson, the city’s shoreline planner, if he knew where the quotation came from. He said the phrase, in quotes, was included in a Department of Ecology August 2010 publication of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
entitled, “Shoreline Master Program: Making sense of tough issues.” The phrase was used to illustrate a common public perception that is incorrect. The article went on to clarify the policy, which is as follows: “DOE views bulkheads as one possible acceptable strategy to reduce shoreline erosion.” By quoting only the provocative lead sentence and ignoring the accompanying policy statement, the speaker misled the audience. Whether this action was intentional or was simply sloppy I do not know. I describe this incident to alert the community to the importance of examining testimony they hear. False assertions should not go unchallenged. Even people with impressive credentials should be asked hard questions. If we adopt high standards in our discourse, the quality of the SMP update will benefit accordingly. Bruce Taft, PhD in oceanography South Beach
UAC
Vice chair not authorized to speak for committee Last week, Arlene Buetow circulated to our committee members an email attaching a “personal opinion piece” she submitted for publication in the Review. The piece deals with the divestiture of the city’s water utility. At the bottom of the piece she identified herself as the vice chair of the Utility Advisory Committee. As you also know, the UAC is in the middle of discussing the divestiture issue and, in all likelihood, I anticipate we will have a formal recommendation for the council within the next
week or two, but we have not yet made any decision on this issue. Arlene’s identification of herself as our vice chair at the bottom of her opinion piece is misleading and inaccurate because it falsely gives the impression to your readers that she is writing as an authorized representative of the UAC. Arlene has not been authorized to speak on behalf of the UAC and her position advocating in favor of divestiture is not the position of the UAC, as we have not yet voted on this issue.

Sports alumni dinner a huge success for BHS Our inaugural “We are Spartans” Sports Benefit Dinner was a huge success. We welcomed a sold-out crowd to the Wing Point Country Club on Oct. 8 to honor community leaders and support Bainbridge High School sports programs that are on the chopping block. We awarded long-time Bainbridge Island educators Tom and Lois Paski with the Spartan Way Award for their decades of high school sports support and dedication to BHS students. An enormous thank you to all our attendees. With their support, we reached our goal and are able to help fund the 2011-12 freshman sports teams, team bus transportation and much needed equipment repairs and replacements.

So why not just vote like the neighbor who thinks like you and pays more attention to politics? The other day, a person said she would rather vote for a lawyer than an engineer because, “what does an engineer know about running a city?” Hopefully her reasoning is more complicated than that, but it makes you wonder about our political process. At first glance, this year’s eight council candidates are excellent overall. They’re smart, committed and convinced that their individual skills are exactly what the city needs to provide the community the best leadership available. Hopefully, it’s that individuality that they won’t leave behind once they become councilors. One of the complications of democracy is that membership is odd-numbered in order to get things done. This tends to push people to one side or another, which often causes alignments to become rigid. Nothing new there, and Bainbridge is certainly no different in that regard. The worst-case scenario is when a candidate is obstinately aligned even before an election. Such candidates have pre-election agendas and are often easy to identify. This council, already divided, doesn’t need such members – whatever their political persuasion. They tend to protect the system rather than the community they serve. So when choosing candidates during the next few weeks, look for those with strong resolve and open minds. And most of all, candidates who want to discover what’s best for the island, not those who think they already know what’s best.

Some introverts can’t hide out even when it’s their mission The woman who is my wife and I have slightly different personality types when it comes to meeting new people. For example, when Wendy walks into a room full of people she doesn’t know, she becomes energized and acts as though everyone in the room is an old friend she is meeting for the first time. On the other hand, when I walk into a room full of people I don’t know, I assume they are all secretly plotting to steal my kidneys and leave me unconscious in a hotel bathtub filled with ice. You know, sort of like how it felt back in college going to a frat party. From this subtle difference in how we approach meeting strangers, one might conclude that I am an introvert and Wendy is an extrovert. I wouldn’t disagree with that diagnosis for Wendy, but I don’t think I’m an introvert. I see myself as just a normal person with a healthy regard for retaining his kidneys. In point of fact, I have a drawer full of Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator assessments on which I not only received passing grades, but on which I consistently showed an aptitude for such traditionally extrovert-oriented fields as sales and marketing, assuming I could find a job in sales or marketing that didn’t actually require me to sell or market anything to anybody. Respected psychologists and Wikipedia both say extroverts tend to be gregarious, assertive and interested in seeking out external stim-
THE LATTE GUY By TOM TYNER ulus while introverts tend to be introspective, quiet and less sociable. Extraverts tend to enjoy human interactions, are enthusiastic, talkative, and take pleasure in social gatherings, community activities, and asking complicated questions just as the tying run is coming to the plate in the bottom of the 9th inning of an important Mariners loss. They often go into teaching, politics or sales, and usually have lots of numbers on their cell phone speed dials. I have eight. Introverts, on the other hand, tend to be more reserved and less outspoken in groups. They enjoy solitary activities such as reading, writing and reading about writing. Introverts typically hate small talk and cell phones, and often become artists, writers, engineers and, occasionally, psychotic loners and/or postal workers. History is full of notable introverts. The solitude-loving Henry David Thoreau said that he would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to himself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. Winston Churchill said solitary trees, if they grow at all,
grow strong. Contrary to popular misconception, being an introvert is not the same thing as having a mental illness. And all introverts are not necessarily socially awkward or uncomfortable in large groups, although some of us are both socially awkward and uncomfortable in any group larger than one that can comfortably fit around a poker table. My own view is that most people exhibit tendencies of both extroversion and introversion at times depending on the circumstances, the available stimulants, and the proof and quantity involved. Some quiet people I know are inwardly outgoing, you might even say gregarious, at least on the cellular level. All of this is interesting food for thought, using the term “interesting” here in the loosest possible sense. I do know that most people who fit the profile of an introvert hope that, if there is a Heaven, it is very much like a large library or a cozy bookstore, while people like the extrovert who is my wife hope Heaven is like an endless free concert at the Grand Old Opry. I can deal with a Heaven like that. Provided I can sit in the back row, of course. Tom Tyner is an attorney for the Trust for Public Land.

LETTErs Election
City Council candidates should be unbiased from the beginning Last week’s Review contained a letter from a retiring City Council member presenting a slate of candidates to select for the council. The council member has worked hard for 10 years, so I don’t begrudge him his views. However, I am writing to urge islanders to reject the notion of a slate, whether it’s the four candidates the council member recommended or any of the other 16 possible combinations. Running a slate ranks up there with month-long January ice storms as a bad idea for the island. Slates encourage those elected to pick sides from the outset, rather than sorting out proposals and ideas on their merits, which is what they are selected to do. Certainly, partnerships and highly trusting relationships between individuals emerge, but the Bainbridge Island City Council will work best when any four of the seven members can and will emerge as the majority on an issue. Groups selected together tend to grumble together. Let’s elect the best candidates and get on with the ongoing task of seeking the most outstanding city we can get. David Harrison Arrow Point

UAC vice chair accused by colleague of distorting ‘many facts’ in column Your Oct. 14 edition contains a guest opinion piece by Arlene Buetow (“City needs to act in best interest of ratepayers”) recommending transfer of the city’s water utility to the Kitsap Public Utility District (KPUD). Although Ms. Buetow decries “campaign hyperbole” and “unending dialogue,” her piece contributes to more of the same by making unsubstantiated claims and offering serious distortions of many facts that have come out as the city’s Utility Advisory Committee (UAC) has deliberated on this matter. As a member of the UAC, I have attended public discussions on this since June 2010 and would like to correct facts that have been misrepresented in the article. Ms. Buetow says that the city “relies on utility monies to subsidize island-wide governmental responsibilities and to balance the city budget.” This is a serious charge unsubstantiated by any facts presented in her piece. The water utility is accounted separately from the remainder of city government. This is in accordance with state law and responsible municipal practice. COBI administration allocates staff time to the water utility based on time spent on water utility business. The UAC has received no infor-
GUEST COLUMN By RANDAL SAMSTAG mation substantiating Ms. Buetow’s claim. If she is referring to the recent loan of water utility reserve funds to the sewer utility, these funds were loaned in accordance with state law and have been returned to the water utility with interest. There does not appear to be any impropriety here. Ms. Buetow says that “the decision concerning the disposition of the water utility was delayed pending the city’s Utility Business Advisor’s (UBA) Report … (but) the Report … failed to address … many of these essential issues.” The city’s decision on transferring the utility was quite rightly delayed until after independent, highly experienced consultants had completed an analysis of the costs and consequences of such a transfer. This objective and expert report was requested by both the city administration and the UAC, and authorized by the City Council. It clarified that COBI can dramatically reduce rates based on current staffing levels with additional reductions in customer billings due to reductions in state and local taxes. This analysis has shown that the reduced rate would be comparable to rates that would be charged by alternative suppliers, including
KPUD. The report was essentially complete several months ago, but delay of a UAC recommendation on the issue was requested by then UAC Chair Dave Ward and Vice Chair Buetow. Minutes of these delay requests were not posted to the city’s web site as required by city code. Ms. Buetow says that the conclusions of the report are “fatally flawed because they include neither an implementation plan nor a budget under which the projected results could be achieved.” Actually, the report discusses implementation in considerable detail and presents budgets for two different strategies for reduced rates, corresponding to different levels of COBI staffing. The report is available on the city website for any interested citizen to read. She writes that “the city’s water utility is not competitive and has no credible plan to be so.” Actually, the UAC has recommended and the City Council has approved and staff is implementing a 34 percent rate reduction that will make average water rates very competitive. Ms. Buetow says that “ratepayers are assured a higher level of service for a lower monthly cost under the KPUD.” But the detailed analysis by the UBA and the UAC indicates that COBI rates could well be lower than
KPUD rates for low-volume water users and that the level of service would be similar. While both COBI and KPUD discourage high levels of consumption by higher, tiered consumption charges, the city rate is more punitive to large water users and less so to smaller users than the KPUD rate. In the last three years, the KPUD has increased its rates each year and these increases are scheduled to continue through 2014 (6 percent in 2013 and 3 percent in 2014). In the last three years, COBI rates have remained flat until the Council recently implemented a 34 percent reduction. I am reluctant to speak out on this until the UAC has been able to deliver a formal recommendation to the council, which the UAC is expected to do within the next two weeks. My concern, however, is that Ms. Buetow’s opinion piece, coupled with her encouragement of delay of this recommendation while vice chair of the UAC, may cause voters in this election season to vote for a candidate who has taken a position on this issue without considering all of these facts.

LETTErS Wilkes Elementary
BSF continues to be our school’s best friend At Wilkes Elementary School this fall, a favorite activity for students and staff is to watch the construction of the new school. We’ve already observed an evolution from the “big dig” to the raising of the walls for the gym and cafeteria. We’re looking forward to watching the transformation to a new space we can call ours. As that work proceeds up on the hill, we continue the work of building minds in the campus below. A vibrant school community also requires skills, tools and materials. Increasingly we have asked leaders of the Bainbridge Schools Foundation to help us provide these essential components of a healthy educational program. They have supported staff development workshops that help keep us skilled with the best practices in education. We have looked to them to fund teaching positions lost in the wake of the state budget woes, helping keep class size manageable. Their generous classroom enrichment grants have provided teachers with the materials to enhance and integrate their curriculum using resources not otherwise affordable. We’d like to thank BSF and all who have contributed for helping us build a solid education for the students of Wilkes. Bill Covert 4th grade teacher Capt. Charles Wilkes Elementary

Julie Duke adds fresh vibe what’s happening to Island Music Center
Halloween events
By Connie Mears Staff Writer
After cuts to funding led to Dave Bristow’s departure as head of Island Music Center in spring, board members stepped in to steer the ship as best they could. On Sept. 19 blues songstress Julie Duke was hired on a part-time basis to handle administration and help invigorate the center. She’ll be strengthening partnerships with local schools and booking a variety of concerts to fill the IMC stage on a more regular basis. There’s talk of starting an open mic night that can accommodate bands. Duke combines her background in nonprofit management with a love of music. As the lead vocals of Bainbridgebased “The Julie Duke Band,” Duke reaches deep into the heart of blues, counting Etta James, Koko Taylor and Bettye Lovett as her influences. She will perform, along with the band – Brain Barta on guitar, John Lester on drums and Jim Londay on bass – at

Fixing the problems Scales also submitted a draft ordinance to change the structure of the CSC. The draft includes three alterations to the commission, beginning with an increase to the number of members from three to five. The purpose, Scales said, would be to allow a minority number of commission members to meet without violating the state’s Open Public Meetings Act (OPMA). It would also eliminate the requirement of commission members to be residents of Bainbridge Island for three years. The ordinance also would stagger the terms of the commissioners with two of them serving three-year terms and three serving four-year terms. The ordinance would also specify the role of the Secretary/Chief Examiner of the CSC, stating that the position should be held by a city employee. The city is now seeking to fill the empty committee, which by law it is required to have. “I think we are all losers as a result of this process,” said council member Barry Peters. “I hope this will not prevent others from coming forward for service in the future.” The resignation came in the wake of a lengthy dispute
over the city’s ethics code and the OMPA. Hand, the commission’s chair, resigned Tuesday – a day after McKinney announced his resignation. The final member of the commission, Robert Fernandez, resigned earlier this month on Oct. 10. He had cited that the decision to have the secretary/chief examiner role carried out by a city employee indicated the city was not interested in keeping the commission “a truly independent body per the Revised Code of Washington.” Hand and McKinney had different reasons for resigning. “Now I believe that I can no longer be of effective service to the city in an atmosphere so charged with allegations and acrimony, so poisoned with innuendo, half-truths, and falsehood,” Hand said in his resignation letter. McKinney resigned from his position of 10 years on the commission on Oct. 17. He preferred to facilitate a smoother exit but the current atmosphere within the commission influenced his abrupt exit. “Dave (Hand) and I have just had it so we resigned,” said McKinney. “It’s a very toxic situation – the whole adversarial thing that it has become.”

UAC recommends utility remain with the city Possible 45 percent reduction in rates. By RICHARD D. OXLEY Staff Writer
Winslow's residents saw a 34 percent drop in their water rates, and now they may be looking toward yet another reduction. The Utility Advisory Committee voted 5-3 Tuesday in favor of recommending to the City Council that the city keep the water utility under the its purview. The city has been considering handing the utility off to another party such as the Kitsap Public Utility District (KPUD) — an option that has stirred a heated local debate over the future of Winslow's water utility. During Wednesday's council meeting, UAC Chair Dan Mallove presented the results of the UAC's vote and its recommendation. "We tried to get the rates to a point where we could compare apples-to-apples in terms of the city's proposed rates at 4.5 FTE (full-time equivalent) versus the rates that were quoted by the KPUD," said Mallove.

ing Hendrickson, who filed an ethics complaint with the city on Sept. 9 accusing Hand and McKinney of attending meetings with City Manager Brenda Bauer and City Attorney Jack Johnson without sufficient public notice — meetings which she asserts violate both OMPA and the city’s code of ethics. “After much thought and serious consideration, I have decided that I have had enough. I have submitted a response to the Ethics Board, but that will be the end of my efforts to defend myself against the charges leveled against me by Ms. Hendrickson,” Hand said in his resignation letter. Fernandez was not included in Hendrickson’s ethics complaint despite also attending the meetings in question. Hendrickson submitted the petition on Sept. 12 to have Hand and McKinney recalled, charging the commissioners with malfeasance in office and dereliction of duty. The petition ultimately made its way to the state Attorney General’s Office, where Assistant Attorney General Tim Ford recommended that the city simply rewind and “redo” any meetings that were not open to the public. With the council’s decision to dismiss Hendrickson’s complaint and petition, a redo or any further proceedings regarding the matter are unlikely.

GE NE RAL ELECTION
November 8, 2011 • City of Bainbridge Island
Willie Wenzlau/For the Review
Several candidates’ forums were held during the last few months for the four City Council seats up for election this year, including two sponsored by the League of Women Voters. The one above, held earlier this month for the eight remaining general election candidates, was the least popular of the others and had many people leaving long before the two-and-half -hour event ended.
Island voters have many decisions to make with four contested council seats and the Port of Bainbridge Island because it allows him to connect with fellow islanders. “I’m learning about their concerns with working with the city and listening to them about their own situations,” he said. “Most of the situations I’m involved in are in people’s homes and meetings, but I’m trying to be available for different events. It’s been a long campaign, but I’ve been

involved with cities for a long time and I’m used to it to some degree.” Sarah Blossom, whose family has lived on the island for five generations, said she doesn’t feel comfortable asking for support in her quest to win the South Ward seat. “I don’t like to impose on people,” she said, “but I approach people I know and
come across in my daily life. But I’m enjoying running. I’ve always been kind of reserved and quiet, but over the years I’ve started to enjoy meeting and talking to people.” She said that whether she wins or loses, “I’m glad I decided to run because it has helped me as a person.” And then there’s Steve Bonkowski, who is running
against Peters. “I’m really beginning to enjoy everything about it,” he said. “It has really opened my eyes as to how great of a community this is.” The ballot also includes a proposition that would create a Port of Bainbridge Island and, just in case voters approve the resolution, elect five commissioners to run
the new junior taxing agency. Twelve candidates are seeking votes. (The issue will be featured in next week’s edition of the Review.) There are two other contested races: Position 5 of the Bainbridge Island Park & Recreation District Board and Position 2 of Kitsap County Sewer District 7.

I have an MBA from UC Berkeley. My community service includes: Bainbridge Island Little League; girls youth basketball coach; BHS softball; Rotary Auction volunteer; member of Bainbridge Island Land Trust. Statement: My focus as commissioner will continue to be: prudent management of our budget; accountability to the community; cooperative working relations with other island jurisdictions; sustainable stewardship of our parks, open space, and facilities, particularly as we integrate new parks into our system; and development and delivery of innovative recreation and cultural opportunities. Islanders value our parks, open
space and the opportunities provided by an outstanding recreation program. I share those values and promise to keep working to make our system one of which we will always be proud.
ron LUKe Phone: 206-842-9910 Email: luker4parks@gmail.com Biography: I had a 26-year financial services industry career; 21 years as a regional marketing director who managed a $100,000 annual budget and two independent contractors. I served as: a Ron Luke Seattle Block Grant Program coordinator; International Association of Financial Planners board member. My community service includes Northshore Recreation karate instructor; youth coach for baseball, soccer and basketball; Brownie, Cub and Scout troop assistant; Bainbridge American Legion Post former commander; Boys/Girls State committee; and community veterans activities. Statement: My grandfather, a Chinese merchant, founded Luke House Associates during the 1890s in Seattle. My father served during WWII working in a steel plant and became an American citizen after the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was repealed
in 1943. When I became a Fort Ward property owner 30 years ago, Bainbridge had one-third fewer residents. Now thousands of homes access 26 parks, more than 1,600 acres and 5,000 feet of shoreline. After six years, commissioners face tough choices as $30 million has been depleted and property values continue to decline. I will collaborate fresh perspectives in prioritizing budget realities.

Statement: My top priority for the district is to maintain fiscal responsibility. I want to keep service rates low and ensure that the district maintains adequate reserves to cover maintenance and has funds available for future equipment replacement. Every dollar counts in this small district, therefore I don’t accept compensation for work as commissioner, helping us keep our monthly sewer rate at about half that of the City of Bainbridge Island’s rate. I hope to continue to serve our community.

A: The issue that sets me apart from my opponent is that I believe in self-determination. I am resolved to have this community control its own destiny as much as possible and not to cede authority over our water utility (to KPUD) or any other essential facility or service unless there is a very compelling reason to do so. We became an all-island city and voted to change our form of government to a council-city manager form for good reason. Our city government can do much better, but it’s about effective management and council leadership, not farming out essential functions to others to whom there is a lack of accountability to Bainbridge citizens. I am looking to the future and my opponent seems to be focused primarily on city transgressions of the past, some of which have nothing to do with the current city administration. Let’s be the change we seek.

CITY COUNCIL NORTH wARd, Pos. 2 ANNE s. BLAIR Phone: 842-6722 Email: blair@blair4bainbridge.com Website: www.blair4bainbridge.com Biography: Throughout my life and professional career I have acted on the aphorism, “Let your life speak.” While my life has been speaking, I have listened and I have learned. That’s why my B.A. degree from the University of Washington and my more than 30 years experience as an Anne S. Blair executive director and board member in organizations as diverse as Puget Sound Water Quality Authority, Children’s Hospital, Olympic College, Leadership Kitsap, Bainbridge Public Library, Bainbridge Community Foundation and the Kitsap Public Facilities District have prepared me to serve as a member of our City Council. Q: Which issue, perhaps the one you consider most important to the city’s future, sets you apart from your opponent? And why? A: While my opponent and I share a commitment to making changes in our city government, the changes I envision are substantive, specific and emerge from clearly stated goals. Effective local government is a realistic goal for Bainbridge Island. Changing City Hall’s attitude to one of service to the community is an essential first step. We also must reverse community distrust of city government. Sensible, transparent decision-making and conscientious budget oversight that reflects Island priorities will begin rebuilding that trust. Updating the city’s website is an obvious way to enhance transparency, while dramatically improving our local government’s approach to external communication. My opponent and I also differ because I have more than 30 years relevant experience leading and implementing long-term institutional changes. Those experiences taught me that by working collaboratively within a community and in partnership with staff, turning an organization into an efficient and effective entity is do-able and energizing.

I serve as a county commissioner-appointed vice chair of the Kitsap Food & Farm Policy Council,
Q: Which issue, perhaps the one you consider most important to the city’s future, sets you apart from your opponent? And why? A: We must renew our efforts to change the “culture” of City Hall as we continue the change of government. With my geologic and project management experience, I represent a fresh and different viewpoint regarding our island resources and financial priorities. Together we can steward community talents toward developing a sustainable future. I offer a comprehensive fiscal understanding as a result of years of direct volunteer involvement with our municipal business, contributing to ongoing projects while attending city meetings. My efforts and input have already resulted in a better outcome for our island. I recognize first hand that citizens deserve a valid process that is truly inclusive of community concerns and provides for equitable enforcement of the codes and law. We can improve our business climate for a healthy tax base to promote what makes Bainbridge such a great place to life. If elected, I will collaborate with council on these priorities.
CENTRAL wARd, Pos. 4 JOE LEvAN Phone: 206-819-5418 Email: electjoelevan@gmail.com Website: www.electjoelevan.com Biography: My commitment to working for effective city government runs deep. I have been a municipal attorney for over 10 years, including currently as a legal consultant for a nonprofit that Joe Levan provides legal and policy assistance to local governments throughout the state. Previously, I served as an in-house city attorney, in private practice for two municipal law firms providing litigation and other services, and as an attorney for Sound Transit. I have also served cities as an interim assistant city manager, a crime analyst and a recycling coordinator. Prior to that, I was an aide for three members of the U.S. Congress.

dAvE wARd Phone: 855-0910 Email:Davidwardforcitycouncil@gmail.com Website: wwwdavidwardforcitycouncil.com Biography: In addition to being a long-term (21 years) island resident, I believe that I offer the broadest range of relevant experiences. During these years, I’ve served on many boards and Dave Ward committees, including The Port Blakely Harbor Citizens Advisory Committee, Housing Resources Board (two projects), COBI Forestry Committee, BI Rowing (Waterfront Park facility), chair of Cave Neighborhood Community Council and chair of the city’s Utility Advisory Committee. These community experiences combined with my education, including two master’s degrees, along with 25 years of business experience, have prepared me well to serve on the council. Q: Which issue, perhaps the one you consider most important to the city’s future, sets you apart from your opponent? And why? A: I am clearly separated from my opponent by my level of experience with projects and programs at the City of Bainbridge Island. I have gained this experience by years of participation in various volunteer committees. Most recently I have served on the Utility Advisory Committee and spent the last year as chair. I have extensive hands-on knowledge of the workings of the three City utilities, where many of the current problems exist. I combine this knowledge with 30 years of solid business experience. I am used to working with small teams to solve complex problems and manage complicated projects. I am accustomed to measuring performance in activities, and I strongly advocate this approach for all city activities and managers. Only by measuring performance can we determine the value we are receiving for our tax dollars. We absolutely need a business-

I have experience dealing with employees, budgets, unions, and local, state and federal laws, regulations and agencies.

My education includes a M.S. in aerospace engineering from the University of Southern California. My community involvement includes Rolling Bay Presbyterian Church, Bainbridge Island Rotary Club and the Island Music Center. Q: Which issue, perhaps the one you consider most important to the city’s future, sets you apart from your opponent? And why? A: I view city finances differently than my opponent. His leadership as head of the former Finance Committee on City Council has resulted in a damaged Winslow Way business sector; a low percentage of taxes collected that are actually used to repair and maintain roads; an upcoming 4-Year Capital Plan that’s dominated by voter-approved bonds (rather than a healthy balance of reserves and tax revenues); and an ever-escalating cost of city benefit payouts – one of the highest in our state. Instead, I would reduce the drag on taxes by significantly changing city overhead, institute real incentives for business growth and implement new and less expensive ways of providing necessary services. My experience in restructuring and streamlining organizations will bring a different skill-set to the City Council. My expertise and my proven leadership will help achieve true financial health and long-term sustainability for Bainbridge Island.

helped achieve careful City downsizing from 152 to 111 employees, but preserved 75 percent of our human safety-net dollars for our community’s neediest families. I voted to improve roads and shoreline parks with grant dollars – reducing city taxpayer cost – and helped shape a 2011 budget achieving a big surplus for reserves. My professional experience includes serving as a consultant to employers nationally on responsible governance when entrusted with other people’s money. I was an employee benefits and business attorney for 20 years. My community service: Volunteer mediator includes Kitsap Dispute Resolution Center and cofounder of Sustainable Bainbridge. Q: Which issue, perhaps the one you consider most important to the city’s future, sets you apart from your opponent? And why? Like my opponent, I have extensive business experience with a large business - in my case 15 years with Verizon (including years in senior management). And Steve has similar experience with a big defense contractor. But my career also includes experience with a small community-based nonprofit, supervising a staff of 12, and writing a dozen grant proposals for funding. Furthermore, I’ve worked four years with a University. I’m now a volunteer mediator with Kitsap Dispute Resolution Center. And, before serving on Council, I devoted many years as a co-founder of Sustainable Bainbridge and serving as its first president
-- an organization focused on sustaining the community, the environment and the local economy. I feel that my background enables me to be responsive to a more diverse crosssection of the Bainbridge community.
SoUTH ward SaraH bLoSSom Phone: 842-4431 Email: blossoms49@hotmail.com Biography: I have lived on Bainbridge for 34 years, having been born and raised here. I am an attorney and recently opened a new practice on Bainbridge with my older brother. I earned Sarah Blossom a bachelors degree in business administration, with a major in accounting, from Seattle University in 2000. I graduated from Seattle University School of Law in 2003. As a fifth generation islander on both sides of my family I have deep, historical and emotional ties the Island. I have lived through many changes here and know that we can accommodate further growth without jeopardizing those characteristics that we love. Q: Which issue, perhaps the one you consider most important to the city’s future, sets you apart from your opponent? And why? The key to our government’s future lies in its commitment to the belief that the government exists to serve our community and
that our community deserves a government that will respond efficiently and effectively to its needs. When our city makes output and efficiency a priority and recognizes the true cost of doing business many of our community’s concerns can be resolved. Taxpayers and ratepayers deserve value for the taxes and fees they pay and a government that will live within its means and deliver on promises made at City Hall. When we have an organization that puts the interests of our community first, we will have an organization that prioritizes the actual delivery of services, such as safe roads. Our community deserves a government that heeds our concerns, is transparent in its process, and has greater accountability for how our money is spent.

Attended hundreds of City of Bainbridge Island meetings and have extensive city government knowledge, including financials, utilities, housing, roads, currently focusing on stormwater and low-impact development. Q: Which issue, perhaps the one you consider most important to the city’s future, sets you apart from your opponent? And why? A: Although my opponent and I seem to both agree city finances continue to remain the dominant issue for the city, we are very distinguishable not by how we intended to solve the city’s financial issues, but by the organization and future implications backing this election effort. I am strictly independent, self-financed, accepting no political contributions, not wanting to owe any individual or organization any future political vote. My opponent is backed by the Ratepayer’s Alliance, which has filed a multi-issue lawsuit against the city that has cost ratepayers and taxpayers in the range of $450,000 to date. If the Ratepayer’s Alliance latest storm water funding legal move is successful in the courts, more than $3 million of the existing city general funds will have to be transferred over to the storm water fund. That single act alone could set the general fund back almost two years and immensely complicate an already difficult city financial situation.

LETTERS OF ENDORSEMENT CITY COUNCIL NORTh WaRD Anne Blair
A positive voice for reason I am writing to express my support for Anne Blair for Bainbridge Island City Council. For decades, Anne has generously given her time and wisdom to numerous boards and commissions – both public and private – including Kitsap Public Facilities District, Bainbridge Public Library and Bainbridge Community Foundation. I have personally known Anne for almost 20 years, and it was my pleasure to observe her leadership skills on a very local level as a founding member of Cedar Lane Park, a neighborhood group formed to purchase and preserve a nearby waterfront parcel. Without a doubt, I can say that Anne will be a great addition to the council. She always comes to the table with an open mind, ready to listen and cooperate with colleagues and community members. She is never combative or driven by a pre-set agenda. Instead, she works collaboratively forpractical consensus-based solutions. The City Council desperately needs Anne’s reasoned intellect, her open-minded creativity and her collaborative spirit. Please join me and many others voting for Anne Blair – a voice for reason and consensus. Bruce Weiland Bainbridge Island
A consensus builder is needed We enthusiastically endorse Anne Blair for City Council. We have known Anne for 33 years, ever since our children first played soccer together. We have served with her on various boards, have witnessed her giving of time and talent to our community, and firmly believe she possesses the skill set necessary to bring effective and efficient government to Bainbridge. Anne is: • an active listener, open-minded and evaluates information fairly; • a consensus builder who works collaboratively and is not driven by a personal agenda; • a leader and is not hesitant to take action to get things done; • a strategic thinker and consummate problem solver; • quick to understand complex issues, but doesn’t jump to false or erroneous conclusions; • knows our greater community, having served on nearly a dozen local boards. We are very fortunate to have someone with Anne’s talents willing to work for us, and work she will. Peter and Wendy O’Connor Crystal Springs
A trusted, complete leader When I make choices, I consider my personal experiences, check out reviews, talk to friends, and look for objective information. That process leads me to choose to vote for Anne Blair for City Council. I have worked with Anne over a period of
34 years on a host of community projects. Our first shared interest was the Bainbridge Public Library where Anne was a leader on the team to plan and raise funds for the first library remodeling project. We have also worked together as parent volunteers on numerous Bainbridge Island school projects and enrichment programs where Anne was always a stalwart organizer and a consummate problem solver. She’s been a board member of so many community groups that it’s hard to think of them all. It’s impossible not to be impressed when you read the reviews of Anne’s achievements. I’m not alone in my admiration of Anne’s executive qualities. There is a long and growing list of community members who have endorsed Anne to make important decisions for our island home. Finally, Anne’s record of results is an objective accounting of projects completed and organizations strengthened through her hard work and ability to put people and ideas together to make good things happen.

She has the energy to take the time to listen to and prioritize citizens’
concerns, and work effectively with other councilors to make progress. Melanie’s scientific training as a hydrogeologist will be a useful complement to the professional expertise already on council, and her training is also needed because there is no one currently on city staff with her background. Over the last several years, she has taken an active role in the island’s management of our water resources and farming policies. She is keenly aware of the challenges we face, and can provide an informed and reasonable opinion. Please join me in supporting a fresh voice on our city council. Jim Wilford Fletcher Bay

She brings a trained eye and relentless effort to her investigations. If elected she is committed to represent citizens and work closely with other council members to make our island government more effective and responsive. Please join me in voting for Melanie Keenan for City Council. Glenna Teti Bainbridge Island
Devoted to serving islanders Unlike anyone running for or serving on council, Melanie Keenan is a registered hydrogeologist with regulatory compliance experience on behalf of Fortune 500 companies and Western Washington municipalities. Her scientific background, tenacity in learning the facts on each issue, and willingness to make decisions that will benefit the majority of islanders, sets her apart from her opponent. She is committed to being responsive to islanders’ priorities and will devote her full attention to this position. There are fundamental problems with how our island is being managed. In fiscal year 2011, approximately $12 million of our city’s $15.6 million in revenues were spent
on paying for our staff of 111. We should be spending a minimum of 1.3 million just to maintain our roads; instead, only $400,000 was spent in 2011, and only $600,000 is proposed for next year on this neglected function. The proposed 2012 budget outlines expenditures of $12.9 million on staff against our declining revenues of $15.4 million with an additional $4.5 million needed for debt service. These numbers are not sustainable. Melanie is willing to work with council to realistically address these issues and change the present state of affairs. Our family stands behind my wife Melanie and her dedication to represent and work with fellow citizens for the betterment of our island. Malcolm Gander Bainbridge Island

decide: are we so inept and so incapable of managing our affairs that we need to privatize and outsource our essential services to the folks in Kitsap County and Poulsbo, where presumable things are done better and citizens are smarter? This is not the government I want for our community. I want positive local government reflective of the wonderful and intelligent community we live in. The folks running for the council whose plan is to make our community better by trashing city government and cutting to the bone services, including those to the vulnerable, need to think again. Do they really believe their mission is to take apart this community’s ability to manage its future through a small government, small community and small ideas design? Leadership is about hope and positive ideas and direction. I believe Joe Levan will help move us in that direction and I urge you to vote for him

I decided to vote for Joe Levan when he declined to give a letter grade to the city manager at a recent candidate forum. What I see in Joe is a person who would want to evaluate carefully the city’s CEO as part of an informed review process by the council to whom she reports. The letter grades others gave to candidates smacked me of scoring political points, and pandering to the idea that city staff members are a problem rather than problem solvers I have found them to be. In the end, this community has to
Dedicated to learning issues I was privileged to sit on a panel that interviewed all of the candidates running for Bainbridge Island City Council. This opportunity left me with a profound sense of how important it is for us voters to make informed decisions about who we choose to represent us, especially with the new manager/council form of government. To me, David Ward rose above the other candidates as the one most ready to serve we the people. He has dedicated himself
to learning the issues inside and out, with emphasis during these lean times on covering basic needs such as roads, police, efficient water and storm water management, and a more professional and neighborhoodfriendly city planning program. Dave has served on the city’s Forestry Committee, chaired the Utility Advisory Committee, and is president of his neighborhood’s community council. As a retired state park director, I worked for years with elected officials and know what it takes to be an effective lawmaker. Dave fits the mold as the best we have: educated, engaged, mature, thinking and a totally fair candidate. Learn more at wwwdavidwardforcitycouncil.com. neil C. Johannsen Winslow

Sarah’s a volunteer in many sectors, business woman, lawyer, Guardian ad Litem and, most importantly, she is a great listener. Before she forms an opinion she truly listens to all aspects of an issue and then forms an honest, educated and accountable opinion. My wife and I are very proud to cast our votes for Sarah.

Robert Dashiell
Analytical and will speak out Having known Robert Dashiell for eight years, we have witnessed his dedication and active participation in island politics, whether filming City Council meetings for public access viewing, writing thoughtful letters on controversial issues or offering insightful comment at council meetings on community concerns. In the last eight years, he has probably attended more council meetings than any other islander. He listens analytically to all points of view and tirelessly researches issues before forming an opinion. As a retired senior U.S. Navy procurement officer, he understands budgets, project management, and fiscal responsibility. Robert speaks out for what he believes even when his opinions may run counter to the general consensus. He is in favor of slowing down our population growth, which helps to preserve the special small-town feel of our Island. Most people have moved to Bainbridge Island because they like it as it is. We feel Robert Dashiell offers a refreshing perspective on island issues and would be a friendly, accessible and effective City Council member. We encourage you to vote for him. Penelope Wood Rob Wagoner
I appreciate City Council candidate Steve Bonkowski’s research on what’s going on with our roads on Bainbridge Island, and his proposed solutions. As a former high-level manager, Steve understands creative problem solving, and he believes that the concept of voter bonds for repairs is not a viable solution to this recurring city expense. Steve has recently uncovered the following: In 2011 the city’s road fund was $2.8 million; the fund’s overhead was $1.2 million, leaving only $1.6 million to perform actual road work; the city sealed only four miles of road, at a cost of $100,000 per mile. Steve understands that we need to resurface a greater percentage of our island’s 140 miles of roadway in a year. According to his research, other cities chip seal their roads for as little as $30,000 per mile, which is 66 percent lower than what COBI paid this year. When he is elected, Steve will work on ways to allow the city to experience similar cost-savings, and get the job done. Personally, I believe we need a problem solver as our at-large council member not a representative who repeatedly requests increased fees and the sale of city bonds. I hope you’ll join me in voting for Steve Bonkowski for the at-large council seat. Jan gleason Bainbridge Island
Barry Peters
Seeks solutions, collaboration We are fortunate to have a spirited participatory democracy on Bainbridge. Sometimes, however, it seems like the only thing we do is grumble, especially at our City Council and staff. Occasionally, I think we need to take stock and feel grateful for what we have and what we’ve accomplished. I believe that both our council and staff deserve credit for their hard work in creating a more vital and sustainable community. In a time of big economic challenges, they have made great progress in bringing
Page A17
our financial house into order. They have provided a vision and a plan for our community to sustain our unique assets—vital businesses, vibrant community and protection of our natural resources. That’s why it’s so important to re-elect Barry Peters as our at-large representative. In a time of political discord and economic stress locally and nationally, Barry is a voice of reason, cooperation and civility. Barry is a very smart guy who has always worked for positive solutions through collaboration with fellow council members, the city manager and other community leaders. When I go downtown, I see a vibrant, hustling and bustling community. The pedestrian-friendly reconstruction will enhance our connectedness, as well as make us more economically successful. Too many other towns without a vision, are “dead and dying,” the streets empty, with shoppers in nearby big box stores. We can thank our city leaders for helping make our community a great place to live. For four years, Barry has listened to his constituents and worked hard to dig into city issues to find solutions. A vote to re-elect Barry is a vote for stewardship, foresight and leadership for our community. Vicki Johnson Bainbridge Island
Works for common good In the upcoming election, we have a chance to elect a Bainbridge Island City Council that actually works together to solve the city’s substantial problems. The ability to work together for the common good, listen to community inputs and incorporate the best ideas and practices into codes, budgets and laws is a skill set that is mandatory for our council members to be successful. Barry Peters has that skill set. I know Barry as a friend and fellow volunteer mediator and have seen Barry’s skills as a good listener and facilitator. He is skillful at hearing all points of view in a dispute and in facilitating solutions that actually work for the parties in “fixing” the conflict. He brings those same skills to the Council. He also has the intellectual skills to understand the problems, and the creativity to offer solutions, and he has the skills to seek consensus with his fellow council members
that can translate ideas into action. One council member is not enough to solve any problem. It takes the community and a council member that can work with others. Barry is that guy. Barry has strong commitments to the environment and to the financial well-being of our city. He has worked successfully and diligently with others to put Bainbridge Island on a firm financial footing, which was missing when he took office. He made the tough decisions to reduce spending and he understood the trade-offs that were necessary to balance a budget and provide services needed by the citizens. This was hands on, sometimes painful, onthe-job experience. He brings that experience and judgment to every council meeting. He has a positive outlook and is committed to working for all of the citizens of Bainbridge Island. We need his experience and judgment on the council and I enthusiastically support his re-election to the council. Charles Branham Bainbridge Island
Council needs his experience It’s tough to be an incumbent when the economy is forcing difficult choices on governments at all levels. But some incumbents are able to be pragmatic in this moment and visionary for the future. We think Barry Peters is exactly that kind of incumbent. Barry joined with colleague Hilary Franz in helping to win a $5 million grant for our island’s Repower Bainbridge program; he’s helped move forward an award-winning program to encourage green and affordable housing in Winslow; and has helped support our main street and island businesses by serving as the council’s liaison to our Chamber of Commerce. We have been friends with Barry since he and his wife first moved to Bainbridge. We encouraged him to run for office and have been delighted with his combination of pragmatism and idealism. We admire how accessible Barry is to one and all – always open to discuss community members’ hopes and concerns. Our community needs an experienced person on our council. We think Barry has the values, the vision, experience and the love for our community to help lead our beloved island into a sustainable and joyful future. David and Frances Korten Bainbridge Island

2011 GENERAL ELECTION • www.bainbridgErEViEw.Com
Multiple endorseMents Elect candidates who are open minded, responsive Everyone knows we are on the verge of another Bainbridge Island local election. The last election brought us a change in government along with two “new” council members. Unfortunately that wasn’t enough to affect a change in the political culture at City Hall. We have watched the continued dismal mismanagement of the Winslow Way reconstruction project; the inexcusable for dragging on the transfer of the water utility to a private contractor; and currently the council’s shameless attempt to minimize the alleged open meetings violations by the Civil Service Commission. When is enough enough? As one of the committee members who supported and campaigned for the change of government, I want to make it very clear that I am dissatisfied with the current actions of our City Council. We still seem to be dealing with that “circle the wagons” mentality evidenced by the preponderance of four to three votes. Looking at the four members of council that make up the voting block it is significant that one is leaving the council and the another is running for reelection. If you wish to see a change in council’s voting patterns as I do, then it is necessary to look carefully at the candidates and vote for those who will offer a more open minded and responsive community council. That is why I am casting my vote for Steve Bonkowski, David Ward and Sarah
Blossom and I sincerely hope that you will consider them also.
tom Kilbane Bainbridge island
Team players deserve our vote over the small, vocal minority During this period of divisiveness and rancor on the island caused by a very small but vocal group, we need to vote for astute people who are team players and who are thoughtful, collaborative, consensus-builders who want to strengthen our community and hone in on what makes this a unique place. I am getting weary of the naysayers and the people who scream at our City Council members and staff during meetings. I am casting my vote for Anne Blair for council – she is a tough, experienced, and smart woman. I worked with Anne years ago on a strategic plan. At that time, I did not know who she was. But when she spoke, I sat up and paid attention. She was able to cut through the chaff and get to the grain in a polite and civil manner. We need her voice on the council. I am giving Robert Dashiell my vote also. He has been involved with the city for years as a watchdog and an honest presenter of his research and findings. He is a direct and reasoned voice. Joe Levan will get my vote: his work experience should benefit the council and he brings no agenda with him. As for County Commissioner, I am voting for Rob Gelder. I work with him so I have seen him in action. His intelligence balances well with his compassion. With his service-to-the-people attitude that he brings to the table, he listens and moves projects forward. linda owens Bainbridge island
Friday, October 21, 2011 • Bainbridge Island Review
Vote for candidates with strong leadership qualities Most endorsement letters highlight professional expertise and notable achievements as qualifications for City Council. Current and previous city councils include remarkably accomplished individuals. This election’s candidates are no exception. My perspective goes beyond the usual. A former council member who worked for years to bring accord and teamwork to the council, my efforts to help change our form of government were successful. People say they don’t see change … they don’t want more status quo; same politicos running City Hall, little interest in listening or cooperating with anyone else. Then stop voting status quo. Change begins with the community. If you elect people based on their professions, politics, or personal “plans,” instead of electing people on their ability to cooperate and work with others, you will continue to feel shut out of your government. If they can’t work together, how are they going to work with the community? They aren’t. If you elect someone who already has all the answers, why will they listen to anyone else? They won’t. How can voters choose a city council that will have the ability to bring us the kind of government we voted for in 2009? Step one: Choose cooperative people. Step two: They will listen and work together with the community, because it’s how they work on everything. Step three: Things will be different than they are now: no more status quo. Instead of a “panel of experts,” whose tendencies might be to “out perform” one another, choose demonstrated personal traits of leadership built on teamwork.
Bainbridge isn’t “the other Washington.” Being “in charge” is not leadership. Leadership is the ability to bring people together for a common cause, it does not divide them. An old-time islander once told me, “I don’t vote for anybody I don’t know.” Get to know these candidates; join me voting for them, because each has demonstrated the traits of real leadership over and over again. Please vote for Sarah Blossom, Steve Bonkowski, David Ward, and Anne Blair. debbie Vancil City Council, 2001-2009
Council members should serve community first, not agenda I’ve been thinking a lot over the last few months about what motivates our City Council members. I conclude there are two types of people on council: those whose primary instinct is to serve city government and those whose primary instinct is to serve community interests. I appreciate both tendencies – government needs to look inward and outward to function. But council members who are too quick to defend city management from criticism and too prone to substitute technical arguments for policy positions do us all a disservice. We put council members on the dais to listen and to lead, not (just) to protect the city from embarrassment and litigation. When I receive my ballot, I will vote for candidates who are not inclined to further the council’s self-protective tendencies, since these tendencies are getting in the way of good decision making. I endorse: SEE HEndriCKSon, a21

I’ve known Ron Luke for several years, having become acquainted through community events and campaign volunteerism. He’s what I call a straight arrow. Ron, upon deciding he would look into improving access to our various recreational areas, really started work as our unpaid investigative staffer early this year. Indefatigable in his pursuits of the fate of the many millions budgeted and spent with meager visible results, he decided to run for Bainbridge Island Parks Commissioner, Pos. 5.

Ports have been very helpful to the environment of their local areas. The Port of Anacortes has just completed phase three of an extensive cleanup of their waterfront. The first two were removal of debris and sediments, and the third is upland restoration. More than a million salmon have been reared during the past decade by the Port of Grays Harbor. With the help of the Port of Kalama on the Columbia River, a high school marine sciences class created a two-acre wetland by planting native materials beneficial to fish and animal life. And there are many more examples. The economies of both Poulsbo and Kingston benefit greatly from their ports. In 2010, the Port of Kingston sold 160,000 gallons of marine fuel, with a profit margin of 12 percent. With its 45 guest slips, the port had 2,100 boater nights. Each boat spent $340 per boat per night. The result was $714,000 infused into the local economy. Poulsbo has 120 guests slips that were used for 6,001 nights in 2010. Average spent per boater day was $292. Average guest moorage fee was $36. Average daily fuel purchase was $173. Total daily expenditure per boat per day was $501. The result was more $3 million added to the economy. Where do Seattle boaters go for a weekend? In addition to the guest slips in Poulsbo and Kingston, there are 70 in Port Orchard, 60 in Port Ludlow, 55 in Bremerton and 25 in Brownsville. All except Bremerton offer fuel, water and power. For Bremerton, the Port Orchard fuel dock is just across the harbor. We have a 400-foot dock with no gas, no water and no power that, maybe, could dock six boats but not on low tide because only 100 feet of it is accessible. It is not ADA

compliant. Ports can and do stimulate business. Can you spare a “latte a month” to help our local businesses? We all know they need it. Please consider voting yes for the Port of Bainbridge Island? For more info www. portofbainbridgeisland.org
Proponents of creating a Port of Bainbridge Island describe it as a potential cornucopia of good things. It would be an engine of economic development, create jobs, build new bike trails, rebuild the city dock complete with fuel pumps, create a marina with boat haul out capability, install multiple kayak launching facilities, improve road end access to the beaches. One runs out of breath listing its benefits. And we can have all this, we’re told, for the price of “a latte a month.” If you believe we can get all this for the price of “a latte a month” you probably would have been a good candidate for Bernie Madoff ’s financial services. The port’s advocates tell us they’ll “recommend” to the new commissioners a tax rate of 11 cents per thousand of home value. That’s easy enough for the first year or so, as the commissioners hire an executive director and staff; decide what they’re going to do about inevitable union issues; obtain, furnish and equip – maybe build – office space; decide what to pay themselves; squabble over an ethics manual; and set up something that looks like a mini-version of the City of Bainbridge Island government. All this before they get around to economic development, jobs, kayaks, fuel pumps, etc. What the proponents don’t emphasize is that the port’s charter would allow it to condemn and seize land, contract debt and go up to a 45 cents per $1,000 tax rate whenever the commissioners feel like it. Once past the organizational stage, forget the 11 cent tax rate. We’ll not be in latteland anymore. I’m an avid boater and I’d love to have a gas dock here. But all I want is the fuel; I don’t want to invest in the thing. Maybe the proponents can pool their money and put in a fuel station themselves. I’m sure it would make them tons of money.

With your vote we can come up with a three-year plan to finally give our local boaters their needs of local fuel, decent waste disposal facility and haul-out facility so they can get their needs locally. More important they will be providing jobs, cash and taxes for our financially impaired City of Bainbridge Island at a very low cost to form a new taxing district. And do not forget the $2 million legal fee that WSF paid to the city to avoid two long-standing legal issues over providing a community ship maintenance facility on the WSF Maintenance Facility on Eagle Harbor. I had to quit being a boater because of my growing age I had boats for at least 50 years with 25 of those years being located on Bainbridge Island. I know how much Bainbridge boaters’ cash goes just for fuel
and maintenance to locations as Seattle, Kingston, Brownsville, Port Townsend, Edmonds, Port Orchard, etc. If we had decent facilities here all the cash and maintenance costs could stay on Bainbridge Island and create a lot of local jobs. Now if we had decent facilities for visiting boats like Poulsbo, we could attract a lot of boaters who would leave their visiting dollars to our local business My information is that Poulsbo last year attracted 6,000 visiting overnight boaters who, it is estimated that they spent an estimated $300 per day to local Poulsbo businesses. They also sold $173 daily fuel purchases. Poulsbo is not the only community that gets a lot of cash from boaters both local and visitors. Check out Kingston’s Port District’s great facilities for fuel and visitor moorings. With fuel prices continuing to go up and with decent visitor facilities we should be able to get a lot of the Seattle boaters’ attention. This community needs financial help and create badly needed jobs that the city cannon provide. I have yet to mention the needs for a local boat haul-out facility and its associated maintenance capabilities that will provide local jobs. Bainbridge boaters can win this election and provide jobs and bring some outside cash to our City and businesses. The cost per year for the first two to three years when the new Port District operating commission is drawing up a plan is about a latte per month per average tax parcel.

Con
Bond issue is a better solution Some islanders desire to have water-related amenities that the city is not able to supply, due primarily to a lack of funds. The answer, in my opinion, is not to add more overhead (office space, management, staff) with a Port District. Instead, put to a vote of Bainbridge Island citizens, a bond, which proposes to authorize specific funds, to be managed by one of our existing governmental authorities. The city, for example, did a great job of securing open space, mostly at bargain values, after we passed an $8 million Open Space Bond issue in 2001. If the promoters of a Port District value the amenities it could provide, and not merely the thrill of running a new organization, I urge them to meet with either the City Council or Park District Board, or both, and ask them to put a bond issue on the ballot next year. It will certainly be a less expensive and more efficient means to fulfill their indicated end result. In the meantime, I urge my fellow voters to reject the proposed Port District formation.

Pro
Port facts voters should know Before you vote on the Port of Bainbridge Island issue, these facts should be considered by everyone. In 1911, the Legislature enacted laws that allowed people to establish port districts. Ports are municipal corporations of the state and
classified as especial purpose districts. They are legally separate and fiscally independent of other state or local governments. They can build and operate marinas, airports, railroads, industrial sites, park and recreational facilities and marine shipping terminals. They can facilitate trade and economic development and promote tourism. They range in size to very small to very large. Port of South Whidbey operates a recreational pier, boat launch ramps and recreational parks with two employees. Port of Seattle generates about 111,000 jobs. Port boundaries are defined by the voters who form the district, and port boundaries cannot overlap. There are 75 ports in Washington, located in 33 of 39 of Washington’s counties. About one-third are not on water. Kitsap County has the most ports with 12. It is the largest locally controlled public port system in the world. The state has 2 percent of the U.S. population and its ports handle 7 percent of U.S. exports and 6 percent of imports. All ports are governed by the same state laws; each is locally controlled and focused on local priorities. Washington’s port system is the largest locally controlled port system in the world. Voters are elected and are directly accountable to the public. There are a large number of powers granted by the state Legislature to the individual ports. There are many things a Port Authority can do for Bainbridge Island. And with minimal funds focused on just this one thing – how to improve the uses and access to our waters. After all, we are surrounded by them. Elizabeth Murray A candidate for Port Commission

Team Ray poised to make a state title run By WILLIE WENZLAU For the Review
For Team Ray, the 2011 water polo season has been a highly successful one with many great victories against some of the top teams in Washington. As the season comes to a close and the state tournament approaches, the Spartans find themselves true contenders for their first state title. Currently, the team stands fourth in its league and seventh in state. On Oct. 3, the Spartans challenged Newport, the topranked team in Washington, before losing 15-14. This past week, Ray went up against the second- and fourth-ranked teams in the state. Monday’s match against second-ranked Roosevelt resulted in a 11-9 loss at home, and Tuesday’s spirited game against fourth-ranked Curtis ended with Ray winning 14-12 on the road. Head coach Kristin Swanson believes that the end of the season could be quite promising for the team. “The team is doing amazingly,” said Swanson, “I feel that this is our year, and come Monday, we’ll find out how badly we want it.” BHS will play Bellevue

BHS water polo player Grant Dunaway (middle) fights off three Roosevelt defenders to take a shot during Monday’s game at Ray Williamson Pool. Monday in a league qualifying match. The top three teams in the league qualify for the state tournament, which would require a victory by the Ray over third-ranked Bellevue. The time and place were still undecided at deadline. The state tournament will be held Nov. 4-5 at Rogers High School in Puyallup. According to Swanson, the team has come a long way from previous years. On Oct.
Legal Notices CITY OF BAINBRIDGE ISLAND PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE November 3, 2011 6:30 p.m., City Council Chambers, Bainbridge Island City Hall 280 Madison Avenue, Bainbridge Island, Washington YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that the City of Bainbridge Island Planning Commission will conduct Public Hearings on the following ordinance: Ordinance 2011-17: Amending the Permitted Use Table for the Mixed Use Town Center, High School Road, and Neighborhood Service Center zone districts, Bainbridge Island Municipal Code (BIMC) Section 18.09.020, to allow an “Inn” as a permitted use. The Ordinance also amends BIMC 18.15.020 (Parking) to require an Inn to have the same amount
of parking as required for a hotel. The Ordinance also amends BIMC 18.36.030 (Definitions) to add a definition for “Inn” and to modify the definitions of hotel and bed and breakfast. YOU ARE INVITED to attend this hearing and to provide oral and written comments. If you are unable to attend, written comments may be submitted prior to the hearing date.

12 the Spartans easily earned a 18-6 victory over Mercer Island, a team the Ray they had not defeated for a number of years. Team Ray is led by four talented captains, Swanson, and benefits from having nine senior players. The captains “create a perfect balance of leadership,” she said. “Grant Dunaway is an amazing player and a very big offensive threat,” she said.
“Jared Bell leads by example and inspiration, Alex Nowjack is our defensive standout, and Alex Gorman is a motivational leader and great defensive player with a precise shot.” This season, the team has been working to develop different ways to open up Dunaway, who many teams often double or even triple team. “Dunaway is a force in the water,” said Swanson. “On average he’ll score about five
goals a game.” Defensively, Team Ray depends on playing as a team, and the players have been focusing on bringing that level of teamwork to their offensive game as well. “Offense in the past few weeks has been a little disconnected,” said Swanson. However, the team came together against Curtis on Tuesday and the entire game was a “team effort,” Swanson said. Team Ray has come close to reaching their potential many times during the 2011 season, having lost by only one point to each of the top three teams in the state. With the goal of making it to the state championship and ultimately bringing the trophy home to Bainbridge, Team Ray’s strategy to play to their utmost potential is to focus solely on teamwork. “We’ve found that when we work separately we are beatable, but when we play as one unit with one goal in mind, we are unstoppable,” said Swanson. Swanson said the team’s goal is to remain focused, have fun, and simply play the game that they love, “because that’s when the greatest moments occur.”

NORTH KITSAP METAL RECYCLING Four years ago, owners Beth & Dennis Kommer weren’t happy with how much metal was ending up in landfills, so with a dream and a plan, they started a small home-based metal recycling business out of their shop. As demand grew, so did their business and just recently they began leasing property adjacent to the Hansville Garbage Center. From the little tin of Altoids that was dropped off to the big truck loads that come in, they take it all, big & small!

Port Gamble Ghost Conference to discuss things that go bump in the night
BY ERIN JENNINGS Kitsap Week
T
he historic town of Port Gamble, with its pristine grounds and buildings, looks as if it is a movie set. But exactly what type of movie? Perhaps the ghostly variety. “In historical sites that are well maintained, ghosts tend to be well kept too,” said Neil McNeill, a Seattlebased paranormal researcher and educator. McNeill is among the seven lecturers speaking at the second annual Port Gamble Ghost Conference held during the last weekend of October. The conference, which began as an offshoot of the popular Port Gamble Ghost Walks, allows people to explore and dig deeper into the paranormal. Founded in 1853, the
mill town of Port Gamble has a history of unexplained happenings that take place throughout the small town. In the community center (where the town morgue was housed in the basement), people have reported hearing voices and footsteps above them —when no one is on the top floor. In the old service station, which is now Mike's Four Star BBQ, Pete Orbea was working in the back room when he said a tool flew six feet, banged against the wall and crashed to the ground. Scary? Yes. The event was even more frightening considering Orbea was the only person in the room. When a worker was fixing some pipes underneath one house in town, he stumbled upon an old doll. Thinking it was intriguing; he took the doll and then later realized his cell phone was missing. Believing
The attic of the Walker-Ames house has large picture windows covered with gauze curtains. The effect is an eerie glow which causes one’s imagination to wander. Erin Jennings / Kitsap Week that the two events were somehow connected, he brought the doll back to where he found it and the next day his cell phone was sitting on the front porch of the house.
But perhaps the most bone chilling, goose bump producing building in Port Gamble is the Walker-Ames house. Built in 1888, the Walker-Ames is a prominent building on the main street of town. With its
Victorian architecture and delightful paint colors, it’s hard to believe from the outside that scary things have been reported on the inside. Port Gamble employee Kayla McAfee said the Walker-Ames is the only property in town that makes her uncomfortable. On a recent tour of the house, McAfee said, “I always get achy in this house.” The grand staircase, stained glass windows and ornate woodwork in the house is juxtaposed with peeling wallpaper, a stained bathtub and a basement that could frighten Stephen King. “The Walker-Ames house is one of, if not the most haunted locations in Western Washington,” McNeill said. According to McAfee, it's believed that a male spirit haunts the basement. The rumor is a boy once lived in the Walker-Ames house
“The WalkerAmes house is one of, if not the most haunted locations in Western Washington.” Neil McNeill
and suffered from a mental illness. His mother didn't know how to care for him and kept him locked in the basement. Because of that, he isn't fond of females and has been known to pull women's hair. Camera and cell phone batteries that are fully charged have been said to completely drain when brought into the basement. See GHOST CONFERENCE, Page 3

Ghost Conference Continued from page 2
The town’s general store is next door to the WalkerAmes house and witnesses report seeing a woman and child in the upstairs windows —and the house has been vacant for years. Different paranormal investigating groups have spent the night in the house and often try to lure the spirits with candy, crayons and toys, but always try to be respectful. A topic covered at the conference is investigation protocol and how to be respectful and ask for permission of the spirits. Inside the WalkerAmes house there are designated areas marked with yellow caution tape where the ghosts can seek refuge —and investigators are not allowed in those areas. At the conference, McNeill will discuss the notion of mind over matter in his lecture “Exhibit X: The proof and problem of paranormal evidence.” He believes that some investigators create evidence of ghosts —such as images on film, sound recordings and electrical disturbances
Friday, October 21, 2011 —unintentionally. “It’s a radical idea but one generally thought to be what happens with a poltergeist,” he said. The theory goes that stress-induced feelings manifest in energy that cause doors to slam and books to fall. And often the blame is placed on ghosts when it should actually be directed towards humans. “The idea of parapsychology is really spooky and interesting in itself,” McNeill said. Among other topics discussed at the conference are “Haunts of the Pacific Northwest” and “Are all churches ‘against’ the paranormal?” Authors Gregg Olsen and Karen Frazier discuss the paranormal in their writing. The conference includes a Ghost Walk on Friday night and optional ghost investigations on Saturday evening. “Anyone with a remote interest in ghosts, or just wants to get in the mood for Halloween should attend,” McNeill said. “They’ll learn, have fun and get the chance to explore a real haunted house.”

NW WINES
Questions of my own
Unique and unusual wines from our region BY ANDY PERDUE AND ERIC DEGERMAN
T
Wine Press Northwest
hroughout its history, the Pacific Northwest has been about exploration, and we continue that tradition with our wines. We are not a region that drinks just Chardonnay, Riesling and Pinot Gris. We are a region that embraces new and unusual grape varieties. In the Pacific Northwest, we have so many smallproduction varieties to try. Muscat in its various forms has been grown here for more than a half-century, and many newer German grapes developed in the past 100 years have been planted in some quantity in British Columbia. Today, we look at some of the unusual varieties, and we encourage you to search them out and see what you think. Almost all of these will need to be purchased directly from the winery, though check with your favorite wine merchant to see if they can order them for you. ■ JoieFarm 2010 Muscat, Okanagan Valley, $28 CDN: Dry Muscats are rare to find; simply put, they just aren’t made. And dry Muscats this delicious are a treasure, but we come to expect greatness from Heidi Noble and Michael Dinn, who make some of the most beautiful wines anywhere. This wine, made with the rare Yellow Muscat grape, opens with amazing aromas of delicate orange blossoms
and rosewater, followed by dramatic flavors of oranges and lemons. The acidity is simply stunning, and everything about this wine is balanced and beautiful. ■ Barnard Griffin 2010 Orange Muscat, Columbia Valley, $17: Muscat is actually a family of grapes, of which there are more than a half-dozen different varieties. Orange Muscat, which reveals orange aromas and flavors, is one of the rarest. Barnard Griffin in Richland, Wash., has made an Orange Muscat for a few years with great success. This opens with tell-tale aromas of orange blossoms, as well as cloves, rosewater and baklava. On the palate, it offers flavors of orange zest and strawberries. It’s an off-dry wine that is delicious and well balanced. ■ Abacela Vineyards & Winery 2010 Estate Albariño, Umpqua Valley, $18: This racy white wine is
dip.
at home on the Iberian Peninsula, perhaps most famously in Spain. Abacela owner Earl Jones is helping to bring it to prominence in the Pacific Northwest, and his latest vintage is another beauty. It is clean, crisp and inviting on the nose, with refreshing aromas of honeydew melons, lemons, pineapples and cucumbers. On the palate, the acidity is simply dazzling with amazing brightness and flavors of limes and quince. This is a beautiful food wine, and we can easily imagine it with oysters or a crab
■ Carpenter Creek 2009 Late Harvest Siegerrebe, Puget Sound, $24: This variety, created in 1929 in Germany, is a cross of Madeleine Angevine and Gewürztraminer, and its name means “victory wine.” Purportedly, the grape was brought into North America by the owners of Bainbridge Island Winery west of Seattle, so its history in the Puget Sound region is lengthy. This version is superb, revealing aromas of limes and apples, followed
by sweet, ripe flavors of orchard and stone fruit, all backed with bright acidity. ■ Montinore Estate 2010 Organic Estate MüllerThurgau, Willamette Valley, $12: This variety was created in 1882 by Dr. Hermann Müller in the Swiss canton of Thurgau, who crossed Riesling with Madeleine Royale. It is Germany’s second-most-planted grape (after Riesling) and a fair bit is grown in Oregon and Washington west of the Cascade Mountains. This version opens with aromas of apples, limes and minerals, followed by round, plump flavors of ripe peaches and sweet apples. It’s a fun, tasty wine. ■ 3 Horse Ranch Vineyards 2008 Estate Roussanne, Snake River Valley, $19: Viticulturists in the emerging Snake River Valley are experimenting with new varieties to see what will grow in their highaltitude volcanic soils. This Roussanne offers aromas of lemons, oranges and grapefruits, followed by rich flavors of bold, delicious lemons. It’s a lovely wine. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest magazine. For more reviews, go to www.winepressnw. com/freshpress.
From hiccups to flies, I need answers
Y
ou know me as Ask Erin, but I have questions of my own that need answering. I'm turning the tables this week and asking for your help. 1. Why do I keep seeing multiple shoes on the side of the road? I think I’ve figured out the answer for children’s shoes: an open car window, plus bored toddler, equals By ERIN lost shoes. But explain the men’s dress loafer I saw, or the flip-flop. Do that many people leave their shoes on top of their car and drive away? Just last week I saw five shoes alongside the road during my 10-mile drive to the office. 2. Why hasn’t anyone created a dog food that turns dog waste into a bright neon color, rather than its current camouflage color of “wet-leaf brown”? 3. Do fire alarm manufacturers deliberately make their alarms so they start “chirping” after midnight? 4. What’s with the new kale fascination, and what are some tasty ways to prepare it? 5. Why do some British singers lose their accents when they sing? Current pop-sensation ADELE sounds like she hails from the middle of America when she sings, not her
native London, England. Does she purposely drop her accent to Americanize her voice? 6. After I watch a scary movie, why do my dogs bark incessantly at my closet door or whimper at the window? How do they know I’m on edge? 7. Why do I often get a bad case of the hiccups after eatJENNINGS ing raw carrots? 8. How do I handle the current fly infestation in my house? I’m no Mr. Clean, but I do a fair job of keeping my house decent. Where are the flies coming from and how do I get rid of them? They are smart and disappear when I have a fly swatter in hand. So there you have it. Those are the questions that keep me awake at night. And as always, if you have questions of your own—from the practical to the absurd, send them my way and I’ll do my best to answer them. Meanwhile, my hiccups and I await your reply. — Ask Erin is a feature of Kitsap Week. Have a question? Write Ask Erin, Kitsap Week, P.O.

aroundkitsap BainBridge island review Frisky cast strong in BPA’s ‘CATS’: Following on the heels of staging the blockbuster “Chicago,” Bainbridge Performing Arts is presenting Broadway’s second-longest running musical, “CATS.” “It’s a difficult show to do – with no lines, just the music,” Director Steven Fogell said. Starting with the imaginative play by Andew Lloyd Webber based on T.S. Eliot’s poetry, the BPA version puts a contemporary twist on the classic. Casting turned up quite a few new faces, as well as mainstays from Bainbridge’s formidable talent pool. Powerful vocals abound – notably opera-trained Lisa Mandelkorn who performs an aria with Bainbridge vocal coach Mark Power – and Shelli Shelton, singing Grizabella’s memorable tune “Memories.” Chris Kolbegger provides vocal direction.— BainbridgeReview.com. BremertOn PatriOt For the love of baking — Charleston bakery owner is on 30 years of baking pink champagne cakes: A woman walked into the bakery on Callow Avenue and burst into tears. She had moved away from Bremerton and had not been to McGavin’s Bakery in 25 years. To her, everything looked the same and she
took a pink champagne cake to celebrate the reunion. “She came to see if it was still here,” said Deloris Lichter, who has worked at the Charleston bakery since December 2007. “It’s a real tradition.” Bill Sheldon has owned the bakery, known for its pink champagne cake, since 1981. He came from a bakery in Tacoma and bought McGavin’s because of the location and the longstanding history of the pink champagne cake there. “This was the place to be and I’ve been here ever since,” he said Tuesday. Sheldon said it’s up for debate as to exactly how long McGavin’s Bakery has been around. He said it has a history of about 74 years. “The historical society has taken a couple shots, but I don’t know if anyone can agree on it,” he said. — BremertonPatriot.com. central kitsaP rePOrter Going mobile — Silverdale mechanic starts mobile service and becomes personal mechanic to many: Two years ago Silverdale resident Colin Shaughnessy conducted a little business experiment to see if he could start and run a mobile auto repair service as a successful small business.

One year into the bad economy, the shrinking amount of work coming into Shaughnessy’s employer’s shop got him thinking about other approaches to his working life and how he might better support his family. Being a mechanic is what Shaughnessy does. Leaving the industry he loves wasn’t part of the process. “It’s his gift,” said Jennifer Shaughnessy, Colin’s wife. The idea to take the full services of a garage to the customer’s house in the way that doctors used to make house calls was not Colin Shaughnessy’s originally.

Headed to the ‘Sundance’ of horror films Poulsbo native Bruce Wood’s new film stars Academy Award winner Louise Fletcher
BY RICHARD WALKER Kitsap Week
T
here was a time when screenwriter Bruce Wood thought he wanted to be a dentist. “After a job shadow, I knew I couldn’t drill on people’s teeth,” he said. That forced him onto a circuitous route that ultimately led to Hollywood, where his supernatural thriller, “Cassadaga,” premieres Oct. 22 at the Screamfest Horror Film Festival, referred to in the industry as the “Sundance of Horror.” Wood, whose film career includes grip on the short drama/horror “The Fury's Prey” (2006) and writer of the award-winning short drama “Interconnected” (2007), said “Cassadaga” is his new calling card — the cast of the full-length feature film includes Academy Award winner Louise Fletcher (“One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,” 1975). The cast also stars Kelen Coleman (“Children of the Corn: Genesis”), and Kevin Alejandro (“True Blood,” “Southland”). “Cassadaga” is directed by Anthony DiBlasi (“Dread,” “Midnight Meat Train”). Devastated by the death of her younger sister, Lily Morel seeks solace at the spiritualist community of Cassadaga. But instead of finding closure during a seance, she contacts some-
thing else — the vengeful ghost of a murdered young woman. With her life crumbling all around her, Lily races to unravel the mysterious circumstances surrounding the woman’s death – a task that will bring her face-to-face with a sadistic serial killer known only as “Geppetto.” Wood, 35, graduated from North Kitsap High School in 1994. He is the son of Michael and Valerie Wood of Poulsbo; his father is a Merchant Marine captain, his mother owns Material Girls Quilts in Silverdale. Wood earned a biology degree at Eastern Washington University, then, after dabbling in some chiropractic studies, pursued a graduate degree in screenwriting at the University of Miami. While at Miami, he wrote the short film, “Interconnected,” which won Best Picture, Best Director and Best Editing at the Canes Film Festival in Miami. The film was a semifinalist in the American Gem Screenwriting Competition and toured Europe as part of the Marbella International Film Festival. He then co-wrote a romantic comedy set on Easter Island, but he and his co-writer could only raise half of the $4 million needed to produce the film. “I always enjoyed science fiction and horror films,
“I always enjoyed science fiction and horror films, and I thought we had an untapped resource here in Cassadaga.” Bruce Wood
and I thought we had an untapped resource here in Cassadaga,” Wood said. Cassadaga, Fla., is home to the Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp, founded in 1895. Its website tells of its “unusual architecture, and the spirit activity that still goes on within the homes of present day mediums … Hear how seances and other physical phenomena are performed and taught here at the Camp.” Wood, who lives midway between Cassadaga and Orlando, successfully pitched the story to a group of investors. He began writing “Cassadaga” in October 2009; shooting began in October 2010. His co-writer is Scott Poiley, his partner in PoileyWood Entertainment. Wood is looking forward
to his film premiere “with a mix of excitement and anxiety.” Shortly after the premiere, shooting starts on Wood’s drama/thriller, tentatively titled “Missionary.”
Wood said he wants to someday teach film and writing on the college level. He’s been in front of the camera as an extra; is acting in his future? “No. I don’t think I’m a
very good actor,” he said. You can follow “Cassadaga” at www.facebook. com/cassadagafilm, and on Twitter at www.twitter. com/#!/CassadagaFilm.

We’d like to find them a home together but each is available separately also. They will be at the Poulsbo Petco this week hoping to meet their new family.

Turning art into funds for scholarships
Immediately after graduating high school, Janet Cramer attended The American Academy of Art in Chicago and then became a successful fashion model in New York City — which led to a career as special assistant to Hattie Carnegie. She then opened and ran her own thriving women’s designer clothing store for 24 years. After selling her store, she went back to her first love — painting. Cramer was a juried member of the Arizona Watercolor Association and an associate member of the American Watercolor Society. Her work has been featured in many gallery shows, including special exhibits
and magazines, and her paintings are part of many private and public collections. Since her death in 2009, her two daughters have been trying to find meaningful ways to continue to share her art with the world. Her daughters often heard their mother tell the story of how Cramer’s parents scrimped and saved so they could send her to art school in the 1930’s. They knew it was her passion and wanted her to fulfill her dream. Now her daughters are selling their mother’s paintings as a way to raise funds for local art students. “The whole idea that
her paintings now might help someone fulfill their dream would make her very happy,” daughter Nancy Heckler wrote.
JANET CRAMER NCA SCHOLARSHIP Cramer’s art is for sale at the Artists’ Edge, 18723 State Route 305, Poulsbo. There will be a reception Oct. 21 from 3-8 p.m. at the store. For more information, visit www.artistsedge. com.
Janet Cramer died in 2009, leaving behind many paintings she created. Her daughters are selling the paintings to raise money for a scholarship fund for local art students. Courtesy photos

“McBane Family’s Remains Found in Abandoned Barn at Fairgrounds.” This year, Lester and Otis are having a family reunion! It has been 23 years since the family disappeared, and the murders are still unsolved. It has been rumored that Otis and Lester are cannibals; that Lester finds potential victims through his work at the carnival. Otis is the one who captures and butchers the selected few. The sheriff is looking for volunteers to go to the abandoned barn where the McBane family was first found. He thinks that evidence may be found and believes that the only way to do this is to rely on strength in numbers, feeling that Otis and Lester wouldn’t dare take on hundreds of people at once. There are not very many brave enough to volunteer to go…are you?

A satisfying way to spend a gallon As prices at the pump remain high, it’s making other things look downright cheap. One of them is interior painting — the cost of painting a room is now about the same as the cost of a fill-up. According to Debbie Zimmer, spokesperson for the Paint Quality Institute, “Even the highest quality interior paint can be purchased for about $50 a gallon, which is often enough to paint a goodsized room, or even apply two coats to a small one. Throw in a brush, roller and paint pan, and the cost is still well under $100 – or roughly the cost of gassing up a minivan.” The affordability of
interior painting has not escaped the attention of consumers, especially in relation to other home projects. In a recent Institute survey, 92 percent of the respondents said they were more likely to paint, rather than do other types of remodeling, given the current economic environment. “Clearly, low cost is part of the appeal of interior painting, particularly at this point in time, but consumers also know that a fresh coat of paint can greatly beautify a room,” Zimmer said. “That’s the real secret to the popularity of painting — the ability to completely transform a space with minimal cost and effort.”

Zimthe new mer offers paint. some advice. “It’s also “Good wise to paint perforuse only mance deTransform a room with a gal- high qualpends on good lon of paint. File photo ity brushes paint adheand rollers,” sion, and paint adheres best to surfaces that are clean and sound,” she says. Before painting, remove dust and dirt from walls and other surfaces with a detergent-water solution. Rinse and allow to dry. Fill cracks and holes with spackling compound and sand them smooth after the compound dries. Prime
Zimmer said. “They apply the paint more evenly and make application almost effortless.” When applying any latex paint, make sure the brushes and rollers have bristles and covers made of a synthetic material like polyester; they’ll hold up better when exposed to water-based paint. Most importantly, Zimmer recommends that consumers use top quality paints in order to make the work easier and to get the best long-term performance.

“In terms of application, top quality paints spatter less, go on more easily, and tend not to show brush and roller marks,” she said. “They also tend to cover the old color in fewer coats, which can save a lot of time, effort and money.” So, if the cost of gas has you perturbed, purchase some paint instead. You’ll get a lot of mileage out of just a single gallon — very likely, enough to completely transform the appearance of a room in your home.
