This rendering prepared by Langley’s Community Planning department shows one view impact of the proposed Langley Lift, a bridge and elevator connecting Wharf Street and South Whidbey Harbor to Cascade Avenue and the business district.

Langley looking at elevator, bridge view impact on Cascade By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Renderings of a bridge and elevator give a glimpse at what Cascade Avenue in Langley may look like. The city’s Community Planning department published the “Langley Lift” pictures showing the bridge and tower’s view impacts from Cascade Avenue. Public comment is being accepted in writing at the planning blog designlangley.org or at Langley City Hall. The overall assessment, which is not an official staff recommendation, is that the structure proposed by the recently-deceased Paul Schell will not “significantly” impact the primary scenic views of the Cascade Mountains, Puget

Sound, Saratoga Passage or Camano Island. Based on the view assessment renderings created by the city’s planning intern, Katy Hima, the most drastic view change is looking north on Cascade Avenue. Along the walkway, the once sweeping sight of Saratoga Passage and Camano Island is blocked by the bridge and elevator shaft. In an attempt to mitigate the view loss, architect and designer Eric Richmond of Flat Rock Productions changed the bridge to have a mesh or lattice covering that will allow people to see through it. A viewing platform was also added to the end of the bridge, which will wrap around the elevator tower with a 5-foot walkway. “There’s the issue of public views in rela-

tion to the regulations in our shoreline master plan,” said Langley Director of Community Planning Jeff Arango of the street view impact to one of the main arteries getting into the city. The project has gone through a few iterations. Under a different mayor, the idea for transporting people from South Whidbey Harbor on Wharf Street up to Cascade Avenue was embodied in a funicular, an enclosed pod that would track people up the bluff. The current project being reviewed is the Langley Lift so dubbed by Schell and Richmond. Schell came up with the idea as a way to create a skyline feature for the city and provide a connection from the water to the commercial area. Schell died July 27 after complications

An environmental review of the proposed Mukilteo ferry terminal is officially completed. With the Federal Transit Administration’s Record of Decision, the state Department of Transportation, Ferries Division can move on to the terminal’s design. Interim Ferries Division Assistant Secretary Capt. George Capacci heralded the federal OK this week as a major milestone for his department.

“We needed to get this Record of Decision, which signals the completion of the environmental review process, behind us,” said Capacci during a phone interview Thursday. Work is slated to begin with the demolition of the property’s defunct Air Force oil tank farm and pier by spring 2015. A call for bids is expected to go out in October. Ferries Division estimates the total cost for the project at about $129 million. While all of that money is slated to be spent on the Mukilteo-side of the ferry route, no money is marked

from a heart surgery, leaving his last project unfinished. Richmond said his plan is to see it through as far as he can with the support of Schell’s widow, Pam Schell. “It was something he wanted done, and this is how I can help out,” Richmond said. “The intention is to move forward and see it finished,” he added. “There’s no one person who’s going to slide in and take Paul’s place.” The elevator would land on the Schells’ property near the Drake’s Landing building by the marina. Next to the elevator, the Schells and Richmond were planning a multi-story building as an expansion for the Boatyard Inn with a restaurant at street level. Langley

Vehicles load onto the M/V Tokitae at the Mukilteo Ferry Terminal on Friday while a walk-on passenger waits to board. Recently, the Federal Transit Administration issued its Record of Decision on the proposed new terminal, signaling a major step in the process. for the other half of its run in Clinton. Highway 525 is connected from Snohomish to Island counties only by the ferry system, which transported an estimated 3.8 million riders in 2012. The route is projected to

transport 5.9 million riders by 2030. South Whidbey residents questioned state transportation officials about what can be done to mitigate traffic impacts on the Whidbey side SEE TERMINAL, A7

A former Whidbey Island resident made a name for himself this summer. They call him the Alabama Band Bandit. King County prosecutors charged Michael R. Hardesty Jr. last week with first-degree robbery for a July 11 heist at a Whidbey Island Bank in Seattle. He’s also the suspect in four other bank robberies in three counties during the month of July, court documents show.

Longtime school board member O’Neal resigns By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record Fred O’Neal, a longtime South Whidbey School District board member, handed in his resignation at the school board meeting Wednesday night. O’Neal distributed his typed letters to each of the board members while playfully reciting the Lewis Carroll poem “The Walrus and the Carpenter.” “The time has come,” O’Neal said. Board member Steve Scoles, who has served on the school board with O’Neal since early 2007 and who has known O’Neal for about 23 years, said that, to him, O’Neal’s resignation was no surprise. “It was time for him to move on and spend more time with family who are out of the state,” he said. In his letter, O’Neal, who served on the board for four years in the 1990s and for the past seven years, cited “family circumstances” as the reason for his resignation, specifying that his resignation may be made effective at any time between Aug. 28 and Oct. 21, dependent upon when Board Chairwoman Linda Racicot deems an appropriate date. In a phone conversation Friday morning, O’Neal explained that his daughter, whose husband is a military doctor, recently moved to Niceville, Fla. when her husband was given orders to relocate to Eglin Airforce Base. O’Neal said the frequent school board meetings would impair his ability to visit his daughter and grand-

kids as often as he would like. Superintendent Jo Moccia said the board will seek candidates who reside in the Freeland area to fill the vacancy by a majority board appointment. The interim school director will serve until the next election in November 2015. Throughout his term, O’Neal was a steadfast supporter of innovative and new teaching techniques and of implementing technology in the classroom. “He has worked harder than anyone on the board to move away from the standard of ‘seat time’ education towards one of ‘mastering skills and knowledge,’ ” Scoles said. Scoles added that “it has been a pleasure” to work with O’Neal. “He is an inspiration and mentor to all of us, I think,” he said. “His shoes will be hard to fill.” O’Neal was a legislative representative for the board, working as liaison with the Washington State School Directors’ Association Legislative Assembly, and had been working in education for over 40 years. When he joined the school board seven years ago, O’Neal said, the largest hurdle for the district was finding the right superintendent, someone who could improve student success rates and

combat the problems associated with declining enrollment. Selecting Jo Moccia, O’Neal said, was one of the best decisions he took part in for the district. “Moccia is everything we wished for and we are making really good progress,” said O’Neal. He added that, despite the continued declining enrollment — which he said is due in part to the influx of wealthy retirees on South Whidbey and the financial difficulty for young families to afford life on the island — student success rates have improved, something the board members did not necessarily think was possible. “As we’ve gotten smaller, we’ve gotten better,” he said. The largest hurdle for the district in coming years, he

participation in the business of the district, I intend to remain involved to the extent my changing circumstances allow.” Linda Racicot said the notice was “received with

sadness” during the board meeting and thanked him for his long service. Damian Greene, who read O’Neal’s resignation letter aloud, concurred that “many accolades” are due O’Neal.

said, is finding experienced staff to replace the teachers who will soon retire. With declining enrollment came the necessity for staff cuts over the years, he said, and like most school districts state-wide, layoff decisions were based upon seniority. “As a result we have a very experienced senior teaching staff, but the downside of that is they are going to start retiring. Our biggest challenge is replacing those positions with really talented people,” he said. O’Neal said that although he may be resigning from his voting position with the board, he still plans to volunteer and attend workshops when possible. “I have found my service on the board and my interactions with the board members, staff, students and public [in that activity] to be satisfying and enlightening and I leave with some regret,” wrote O’Neal in his letter which was read aloud at the meeting by Damian Greene. “However, freed from the responsibility of scheduled meeting attendance and

DockStock draws 40-plus boats Langley hosted 44 boats, ranging from 20-foot pleasure crafts to 66-foot yachts for the sixth annual DockStock at South Whidbey Harbor. This year marked the first time the Langley marina had its expanded dock, which allowed more boats and boaters to visit for the weekend. Harbormaster Duncan McPhee, an employee of the Port of South Whidbey, reflected on the history of the weekendlong event of music, food and boats. “It was conceived as a thank-you to boaters at the end of the boating season for their visits and patronage,” he said. Former harbormaster Rick Brewer, who died in July 2012, was the original creator of DockStock. It grew to eventually draw

a sizable crowd that McPhee said was near the harbor’s capacity. The Tyee Yacht Club, based in Seattle, had a large group visit Langley.

popular reality TV show “Deadliest Catch” about commercial crabbers in the Bering Sea. Tina Taylor’s crab papaya salad won the specialty category, which came with $100 and a one-night stay at the Boatyard Inn. Other winners were Monica McDaniel for her Saratoga artichoke crab dip; Elena Cowperthwaite’s crab cake bites; and Charles Busteed’s Charlie’s crab soup delight. They were given wood-carved bears created by Dexter Lewis. One of the true treats was an exotic seafood dish shared by Pam Schell, who owns a home near the harbor. She brought edible Goose barnacles that were imported from Portugal and Spain, where they are considered a delicacy called percebes. “It was quite a treat,” McPhee said. “It was an adventure just eating them.” The marina’s expansion was completed earlier this year. One of its major concerns was and remains parking, which is limited

between the water and a bluff. That was circumvented with the help of the Langley Main Street Association which operates a golf cart to take visitors around town in a loop that included the South Whidbey Harbor. McPhee said he also had an employee keep an eye on the lower parking lot to direct visitors to other lots in Langley at the Island Church of Whidbey and the United Methodist Church. Next year’s DockStock may become a Whidbeywide party. McPhee said the Port of South Whidbey is considering opening up and announcing the festivities to the general public, in addition to the boating community. He hinted at other changes, but said the port is in the initial planning phase and that he didn’t want to announce anything prematurely. “We’re thinking about expanding and adding more components next year,” he said.

Publisher’s column Opinion page meant for variety of views By KEVEN GRAVES

Funny thing about opinions — we don’t always have to agree with them. Such is the case with letters to the editor and editorial cartoons. I received a letter last week from a newer Whidbey News-Times reader who didn’t like recent letters critical of President Obama. He said the writers’ comments were “tired” and “cliché.” Valid opinions. But he also urged omitting such letters in favor of more interesting viewpoints. As I explained to the letter writer in an email response, I don’t assign topics of discussion to letter writers. Any letters that we receive are unsolicited and placed in our letters queue, unless they fail to abide by the letters policy. I’d much rather publish letters to the editor that speak to an issue or express an opinion than publish one that includes a long list of “thank yous.” The opinion page of any newspaper is valuable real estate reserved for an open and frank exchange of ideas. Some “thank yous” do slip through when there aren’t a lot of letters awaiting publication, but that is the exception rather than the rule. Letters that exceed our suggested 350 words or fewer policy also slip through when we have space. I find it impossible to have a one-size-fits-all rule on letters. I know some newspapers can do it, but I prefer to run as many as we can get on any subject. It shows that we have an engaged readership, a community of people who care about what’s going on in their world. To have unbendable rules on letters is far less desirable than allowing people to speak their minds — as long as we have the space to bend those rules. During election time, the volume of letters increases greatly, and we strive to get everything into the paper. Sometimes a letter is left out if it treads on nearly identical territory as another letter, or is submitted by someone who isn’t local. Whether I agree with the opinion expressed in any letter doesn’t matter, and isn’t a criteria for selection. If you send a letter, abide by the policies and sign it with your name, it will be published. The policy for cartoons is similar. A cartoon isn’t necessarily representative of my or any other editor’s views. It is an opinion and will hopefully inspire some thought or a dialogue. The opinion page isn’t reserved for any one viewpoint, nor should it be. We welcome your thoughts. Keep sending us your letters to the editor.

Petrish is in the running for state Legislature Editor, In case you hadn’t noticed, there is a newcomer to the state political scene who finished second in the primary race for state representative in the 10th Legislative District. His name is Nick Petrish. Petrish is a third generation activist who grew up in Anacortes and now lives on Big Lake. He is a pro-labor Democrat who is a hunter, believes in responsible gun ownership, and has many new and creative ideas on how to deal with the problems facing our state. Petrish believes that people who work hard and play by the rules deserve a fair shot at the American dream. Nick’s concrete proposals are in stark contrast to the tepid record of his incumbent opponent Dave Hayes. Further highlighting this difference, Petrish has been endorsed by his other Republican opponent, Brian Lillquist. In his endorsement, Mr.

Lillquist emphasized the importance of having a representative who will actually do something. I urge you to check out Nick Petrish (nickpetrish.org), and regardless of your political party, consider voting for him as someone who will work for the people of the 10th Legislative District. Thank you for your consideration, ART HUFFINE Oak Harbor

But we would also like to take this opportunity to recognize some of the businesses in our community that financially sponsor many of the great activities experienced by fair-goers. Every year, each barn must raise

the funds needed to cover everything from trophies for the participating 4-H youth to travel expenses for the contest judges who come from all over the state. This year the Whidbey Homesteaders Goat 4-H group took up the cause and solicited area businesses for their support in helping the goat division put on some great fair events. We would like to publicly thank the following community-spirited businesses for their sponsorship of our 4-H youth: Ace Hardware, Blackberry Moon Farm, Half-Link Bicycle Shop, Hanson’s Building Supply, Island Wellness & Massage, Pets & Co., and Sebo’s Hardware. Please remember the good these folks have done with their business dollars as you spread your local shopping dollars around! They are truly a part of what makes living on this island special. Gratefully, KIM LARSON MOLLY JACOBSON co-leaders, Whidbey Homesteaders 4-H goat division superintendents

Nicole McIntosh, Ferries Division engineering design manager for terminals, said the ridership number can be misleading because people may assume ridership equals vehicles. A large percent of the increase in ridership is based on walk-on passengers, she explained.

Taking the ferry transfer span out of a general traffic area was especially important, Capacci said, with traffic at the nearby Lighthouse Park and restaurants often at odds with the ferry’s loading/unloading procedures. Work for the Mukilteo site includes demolition of the oil tank farm and its pier, rerouting traffic from the Highway

525 bridge over the railroad to First Street, building the new vehicle holding lot and the terminal with overhead walk-on access. Ferries will finish its design of the new terminal, which Capacci said is about 15 percent completed, and is waiting on permits from the Army Corps of Engineers before construction can begin sometime in 2017. The new terminal is scheduled to go into use by 2019.

Whidbey woodworkers show at Woodpalooza By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record

If a tree falls in a Whidbey forest, Pat McVay will hear it. The felled wood will beckon McVay, and his chainsaw, to its side. It will confer with him as to what shape it would like to take: a comical piece depicting a truck full of farmers and their swine; a roaring, leaping lion; a functional yet intricately carved bench; a larger-than-life baseball mitt, bat and ball. “I hate to see a tree cut down,” said McVay, who began working with wood as a furniture repairer in 1971, explaining the reasons he prefers using found or salvaged wood. At times, he said, he is asked to “make something special” from a customer’s tree, perhaps one planted by a deceased loved one or that the individual simply wishes to use for more than firewood. He also constructs pieces for public spaces, such as a collection of giant baseball-themed work called “Slugger,” inspired by the beat-up equipment he used to find around the baseball fields as a kid, which was purchased for Hidden Valley Park in Bellevue. He made a duplicate set, part of which is at South Whidbey Community Park. “People always keep me busy making things so I don’t have to wash dishes for a living,” he said with a

chuckle. “The process [of woodworking] is a total immersion, like a meditation almost,” he said. McVay is one of the members of the Whidbey Island Woodworkers Guild, a band of professional and amateur woodworkers — including furniture-makers, architectural woodworkers, turners, clock-makers, sawyers, restorers, musical instrument makers, boat builders, refinishers and more — who meet monthly to exchange ideas and techniques and assist one another with their respective projects. The guild also aims to educate aspiring or beginning woodworkers, and welcomes willing apprentices. From noon-5 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 30 through Monday, Sept. 1 at Zech Hall at Whidbey Island Center for the Arts, the guild will hold its 11th annual Woodpalooza, a showcase of Whidbey artisans’ best works. Gary Leake, a guild member who restores antiques and crafts wooden furniture into various forms, typically using antique woodworking tools, said the guild was formed 11 years ago as a method to unite local woodworkers, most of whom operate one or two-person shops and who would otherwise rarely have the opportunity to interact with peers and exchange ideas and local services.

For Leake and other guild members, it was essential to make the public aware that woodworking service — from creative projects to restoration and repairs — are available locally from professional artisans. Leake noted that the artists whose work will be displayed at Woodpalooza run the gamut in terms of style and technique. “I always love to see the new work from artists who stretch their horizons,” said Leake. At 5 years old, Leake recalled, he watched his grandfather work making cabinets and restoring antiques. He was enamored with the craft, the smell and touch of wood. When Leake’s wife was pregnant with their first son, he said, he made his first hand-made piece, a rocking chair. “[My grandfather] would be proud that I’m not cutting everything up in to a rectangle,” Leake said. “I take a lot of time to listen to the wood.” Leake said he delights in the moment when he is able to witness a person’s realization that there are affordable furniture options outside of Ikea. “When people look and discover that there is an alternative that is affordable and that pieces like this will last for generations, that’s an enlightening moment that is fun to share,” said Leake, adding that he hopes Woodpalooza will help younger generations to be inspired to take up the profession. Another guild member, Joseph Albert, primarily creates Pacific Northwest coast, First Nations-style carvings emulating the Kwakwaka’wakw, who primarily reside in British Columbia, and Tlingit using yellow and red cedar and

The bold lines of the Kwakwaka’wakw and their use of a wide color spectrum appeal to Albert, as do the more subdued forms and mostly red and blue hued colors of the Tlingit. “Sometimes I look at a

piece of wood and it tells me what it wants to be,” he said. “I just love working in wood. Of all the things I’ve worked in — I’ve worked in some stone, glass, metal, I’ve tried painting — I just like wood. I like the smell of it. I like the feel of it as I carve it. I like to see something come out of the block of wood. It is just inspirational…I love the

smell of sawdust; I like the look of chips of wood on the studio floor; I love the sound of a good sharp knife cutting through a good piece.” For more information on Woodpalooza and the artists, visit woodpalooza.com. Admission to Woodpalooza is free and artists’ works will be available for purchase.

THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: PISCES, ARIES, AND TAURUS.

Week of August 31 to September 6, 2014 ARIES

Expect your boss to ask you to attend a training session; it might open the door to a more interesting job. A trip is brewing on the horizon.

TAURUS

For you, September is synonymous with renewal. Take advantage of this time to carefully re-examine the rhythm of your life.

GEMINI

You don’t necessarily feel at ease in large crowds. However, you are given the responsibility of gathering together quite a lot of people for a large scale event.

CANCER

You are faced with a lot of work, mainly small details that have to be settled urgently. At home, don’t hesitate to ask other family members to give you a helping hand.

LEO

Some of your loved ones might invite you to sign up for a special weekly activity that will help you to stay fit over the winter months.

VIRGO

Your friends might find it a bit hard to draw you out of the house. You take the time to organize your little love nest to your liking by using all necessary means.

LIBRA

You might be required to travel more often than usual. What’s more, you spend a lot of time on the phone or on social media. You feel particularly curious.

SCORPIO

You find yourself faced with a mountain of files to deal with at work. Even though it is a rather stressful situation, you enjoy some extra income as a result.

SAGITTARIUS

You are fairly dynamic, and there’s a good chance that you will find a way to really spoil yourself. Your friends convince you to participate in some interesting activities.

CAPRICORN

Stress is truly the plague of this century. It is important to take a step back occasionally in order to relax and see things from a better perspective.

AQUARIUS

Your friends could very well drag you out for a relaxing weekend. Or maybe your life partner will suggest a romantic getaway. In other words, some form of down-time is on the horizon.

PISCES

You are confronted with some big responsibilities, but they will have the benefit of giving you a better perspective on your career. A few hours of overtime are also to be expected.

said Hardesty will likely be charged in federal court next week. Hardesty didn’t go into the banks guns a-blazing, but used what King County prosecutors called the “note job” technique, according to

court documents. He passed demand notes to the tellers and followed up with verbal warnings. Hardesty made a daring escape from Burlington police officers last week, but was later caught when he tried to swap cars in Snohomish County, according to court documents. Island County Detective Rick Felici, who provided the FBI a tidbit of information during the hunt for Hardesty, explained that federal agents dubbed Hardesty the “Alabama Band Bandit” because he wore a T-shirt of the Southern rock band Alabama during one of the robberies. Hardesty is well known to law enforcement on Whidbey, according to the Island County Sheriff’s Office. In 2010, he was accused of selling meth out of a house next to the Sheriff’s Office in Coupeville, according to

court records. In 2005, Oak Harbor police locked down Oak Harbor Elementary after doing a traffic stop on Hardesty’s vehicle. He was wanted on felony drug warrants out of Bellingham. Before that, he was charged with possessing methamphetamine in one case and burglary in another in which he crashed an Oak Harbor party and attacked his ex-girlfriend and the man she was with, court documents state. In addition, Hardesty was convicted on a federal gun charge and is currently on federal probation, according to the King County Prosecutor’s Office. Court documents show that Hardesty has lived in Coupeville, on South Whidbey and in Bellingham over the last decade. The probable cause statement says that Hardesty “was

deeply in the methamphetamine lifestyle in Island and Skagit counties.” Hardesty is accused of robbing two banks in Lynnwood, one in Shoreline and two in Bellingham. An anonymous tipster identified Hardesty as the Alabama Band Bandit after the FBI offered a $5,000 reward on the case and broadcast photos from bank surveillance video of the suspect and the getaway SUV. A task force of detectives from King, Snohomish and Skagit counties, a U.S. Marshal’s Office task force and the FBI were all involved in the manhunt that started Aug. 12. The story of Hardesty’s capture told in the probable cause statement is the stuff of movie scripts. Five days after the search began, detectives learned from the bandit’s associates that he was motel-hopping

Funding for the project, in whatever form it takes, was approved several years ago by the Island County Council of Governments. The grant funding totals $500,000, and that’s the budget for which Richmond is designing, despite an earlier statement by Paul Schell at the July 21 Langley City Council meeting that he would cover costs over that amount. Several steps remain before the city makes a move on the elevator. Arango said he would inform the council of governments about changes to the plan, including the bridge platform, and that he would make an official recommendation to the city council within two months. Meanwhile, Richmond and Pam Schell are waiting on feedback from residents and the city before theywcan firmm on Why a i tgettomore s ave cost estimates to propose to the city. n i g h t for a f re e qu o te o Power lines that currently cross the Schells’ property would need to be moved underground — which Arango said may be covered by the city, Puget Sound Energy and the Schells.

could not locate him.” Hardesty’s girlfriend told the detectives that she didn’t know he was robbing banks. She told them that he had a Cadillac that was parked at a gas station in south Snohomish County. The officers put a stakeout on the car and saw Hardesty as he arrived a couple of hours later. He ran as police swooped in, but was caught with the help of a police dog that bit him. Court documents say that Hardesty dropped a gun while he was running and left another at the motel, but he denied being armed and there was apparently no evidence that he was during the robberies. Hardesty allegedly admitted to investigators that he committed the five bank robberies. He is being held in King County jail on $500,000 bail and is scheduled to be arraigned Sept. 4.

with his 28-year-old girlfriend and her three young children. They learned that they were driving a 1999 MercedesBenz. On Aug. 19, Burlington police officers located the car at a motel in the city. As the task force detectives and the U.S. Marshal’s Office were en route, Hardesty exited his room and spotted the marked police cars. He went back to his room, came out seconds later with the woman and three kids and headed to the car. Hardesty abandoned the woman and kids, as police closed in, and drove away in the car. “Despite being at gunpoint and being ordered to stop by Burlington PD officers, Hardesty drove off in the vehicle and was quickly lost in traffic,” the prosecutor wrote in the certification for determination of probable case. “Burlington PD officers
