Whooping cough spike on BI Land swap could allow Kitsap typically has 14 cases for 32-unit housing project a19year, but there have been cases in January alone. A parks department parcel at Madison and Wyatt may change hands. By TAD SOOTER FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
Developers hope to build a cluster of small homes on a Bainbridge Island corner that has long eluded development. The proposed project, now in the pre-permit application phase, would add 32 residential units to the northeast corner of Wyatt Way and Madison Avenue, not far from City Hall. Plans for the development include a possible land swap with Bainbridge Island park district that would relocate a public playground closer to the intersection. Developers James Laughlin and Michael Burns are partnering on the Wyatt and Madison project. Laughlin acknowledged that several plans have been approved for the corner over the years and never materialized. With the economy improving, Laughlin believes their project will succeed where others fizzled. “We saw the market revived a little bit,” Laughlin said Friday. “It seemed like an opportune time to jump.” Preliminary site plans for the Wyatt Way development were submitted to planners in early January. The city’s advisory Design Review Board will review the plans at its Feb. 23 meeting. Burns and Laughlin patched together the property needed for the development this winter. According to assessor’s documents, a company headed by Burns bought a 1.4-acre, L-shaped parcel on the corner of Wyatt Way and Madison Avenue
MEETING The Bainbridge Island Design Review Board is scheduled to review preliminary plans proposed for the Wyatt Way development at 2 p.m. Feb. 23 in the City Council conference room.
in December for $1.3 million. The company closed on a property farther north on Madison in January that’s home to the historical Oliver House (the sale price isn’t yet available). The two parcels are separated by Madison Tot Lot, a small playground owned by the park district. As part of the development proposal, the park district would essentially swap the existing playground parcel for a parcel on the corner of Madison Avenue and Wyatt Way. Laughlin said the trade would allow for a continuous housing development, while giving the park a more desirable location. The existing playground is tucked at the end of a driveway off Madison. Park district Executive Director Terry Lande stressed the land swap is still an option being weighed. The district will hold public meetings on the proposal before any decision is made, he said. “We’re running a flag up a pole to see if it’s doable,” Lande said. Early site plans for the Wyatt Way development show small, detached houses arranged in a C shape around an adjacent apartment complex on Madison Avenue. The homes would include a mix of one- and two-bedroom units. Most would be two-story. Laughlin said each home
will have its own private yard. South-facing shed roofs will provide space for solar panels. The development would be accessed from a oneway street running north from Wyatt Way and curving west to meet Madison Avenue. Laughlin said the Oliver House will be kept intact as an office rental. It may be shifted slightly to the southwest. Plans call for an outbuilding behind the house to be demolished. Previous proposals for the corner of Madison and Wyatt stirred controversy. In 2007, a water tower built by one of the island’s early settlers was removed from the property to make way for a mixeduse development. (The tower now rests on a Day Road farm). The development met opposition from a group of islanders who wanted to preserve a row of old trees along Wyatt Way. A hearing examiner gave the project the go-ahead, but developers later withdrew permit applications. The corner remained vacant. Laughlin said the new proposal for the property would preserve a large maple near the intersection and a large willow on Wyatt Way. The black locust trees along Wyatt appear to be nearing the end of their life span, he said, and need to come down. Laughlin is well aware of how sensitive the topic is. “People feel very strongly about those trees,” he said. The Bainbridge Island Design Review Board is scheduled to review preliminary plans proposed for the Wyatt Way development at 2 p.m. Feb. 23 in the City Council conference room.

Kitsap Public Health District officials are monitoring an outbreak of pertussis affecting Bainbridge Island and North Kitsap. According to the district, 55 cases of pertussis, commonly called whooping cough, have been reported in Kitsap County since June. Nineteen people have been sick with pertussis in January alone. Kitsap typically sees about 14 cases per year. Though rarely fatal, the disease poses a serious risk to infants, pregnant women and people with compromised immune systems. “We’re concerned about continued spread and wider exposure to the com-
munity,” District Health Officer Dr. Susan Turner said. The majority of cases occurring in December and January were on Bainbridge, with the rest in North Kitsap. Most of the people infected were school-age children. Turner said every person who is known to be sick has been advised to stay home from school or work. Pertussis typically is spread through close contact, usually between family members, classmates or co-workers, who spend long periods of time together. Early symptoms are similar to a common cold. Children suffering from pertussis often develop coughing fits punctuated by high-pitched “whoop” sounds. Pertussis is generally treated with antibiotics. According to the district, vaccination is the most effective method of preventing pertussis, and vaccines are especially important for pregnant women. Detailed recommendations are available online at www.kitsappublichealth.org and by calling 360-337-5235.

Police to hire new resource officer By RACHEL ANNE SEYMOUR FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
Bainbridge Island Police Department is looking to improve its relationship with residents through a designated community resource officer. “When you have that good relationship of trust between officers and the community, we’re more effective,” said Police Chief Matthew Hamner. The city council unanimously gave the department the go-ahead to apply for a federal grant that would cover 75 percent of the $100,000 annual salary and benefits of the community resource officer for three years. The department would cover the full cost the fourth year. The community resource officer would be responsible for community related events and programs with the department, such as the citizen police academy, neighborhood watches and the police youth advisory group. The officer would be a liaison for the island schools, although it would be up to the schools how often he meets with students. While the district has been without a school resource officer for more than a decade, there might not be a great demand for one just yet. The district recently determined students and parents felt safe at the schools based on surveys and meetings with the police department, said
Galen Crawford, communications specialist with Bainbridge Island School District. Although residents don’t have a safety concern for the schools, community trust in the police department was waning and the City Council was split on whether to support a school resource officer before Hamner became chief in June 2013. In May 2011, the council stalled in a 3-3 vote to apply for a school resource officer grant. Without a majority, the police department didn’t apply. The city manager at the time, Brenda Bauer, blamed a Facebook post by Officer Michelle Vollmer for turning the council against the grant, a post Vollmer said was a joke. Vollmer resigned in November 2011, and the city council fired Bauer in March 2012. Although there was no public mention of Vollmer’s Facebook comment during the May 2011 meeting, then Councilwoman Debbi Lester said she would not support an increase in police staffing — even if it was largely grant funded — until there was an extensive review of the department and officers learned better ways to interact with the public. Vollmer’s Facebook comment was one of a string of issues the Bainbridge Island Police faced. In October 2010, a Bainbridge officer shot and killed a mentally ill man during a welfare check, ending in a

$1.4 million lawsuit settlement and a federal jury finding the city and then Police Chief Jon Fehlman at fault for not providing enough training for handling situations with mentally ill residents. Another officer — president of the Bainbridge police guild at the time — was accused of harassing city council members the same month as the fatal shooting. During the summer of 2011, the department hired a volunteer reserve officer — giving him a badge and the authority to carry a gun — who had a criminal history, including a misdemeanor assault charge and a weapons charge. City Council learned about the reserve officer’s background a couple months after he was hired, and he was asked to resign. Fehlman was the Bainbridge Island police chief during each of these issues. He resigned in September 2012. Public support the police department has been increasing, Hamner said, citing the council’s approval for a community resource officer and the police department having more residents apply for the citizen police academy than there were spots available. “I think the chief has shown he has the best interest of this community and our children at hand time and time again,” said resident Dominique Cantwell, a former board member of the Bainbridge Youth Services.

A library project provides searchable resources from newspapers decades ago. By RACHEL ANNE SEYMOUR FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
T
he Kitsap Regional Library has completed one of its most extensive online access projects, making 1940s articles from the island’s weekly searchable, including coverage of the Japanese-American internment camps during World War II. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, more than 200 Bainbridge Islanders were the first of 100,000 Japanese-Americans sent to internment camps using the presidential exclusion order for the duration of World War II. Walt and Milly Woodward, owners of the Bainbridge Review during World War II, openly opposed the internment and published articles written by internees while they were in camps. The newspaper articles had been only available as images on microfilm and could not be searched using keywords. Starting Feb. 14, articles in the Review from 1941 through 1946 will be available online in a searchable archive. The project to make the articles searchable took more than three years and 50 volunteers, said Rebecca Judd, Bainbridge Island Library branch manager. It was to preserve history and make information easier to access for everyone. “It’s not like history is left to the library or the historical museum or to another entity to be in charge of. Everybody is in charge of our local history,” Judd said. Without making articles

Bainbridge man pleads guilty for $1.5 million theft The tax preparer spent investment money on cars and travel. By ANDREW BINION FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
A tax preparer from Bainbridge Island whose Ponzi scheme scammed $1.5 million from 25 would-be investors, including $730,000 from a Bainbridge woman, pleaded guilty Monday to 14 counts of theft. Patrick Leonard, 67, who went by Patrick Michael Snetsinger, presented himself as a savvy financial adviser to people who
hired him to prepare taxes. From 2007 to 2011 he took money from people with promises of making them a solid profit through an investment or a loan, according to court documents. Instead, King County prosecutors allege he blew through the money to finance a lavish lifestyle that included BMWs, exotic vacations as well as playing an arts patron. In the meantime, he used money from new victims to make minimal payments to earlier victims. The 53-year-old Bainbridge woman who lost $730,000 was the victim who lost the most. She had received a large sum in
a divorce, and Leonard offered to manage and invest the money. Four other Kitsap residents were caught up in the scam. A Mason County woman lost $175,000. Most of Leonard’s victims lived in King County. Leonard is scheduled to be sentenced March 6 in King County Superior Court. Prosecutors are recommending a sentence of about five years in prison, office spokesman Dan Donohoe said. When testifying during an investigation in 2011, Leonard said he was trying to make investors “happy” while at the same time hoping to make enough money during tax season to pay them off.
During the period in question, the real estate bubble was growing and crashed, and among Leonard’s fictitious investments were “flipping” and “short-selling” real estate as well as selling off the assets of bankrupt businesses. During the period, he paid back $265,000 to eight of the 25 victims whom investigators named. Leonard entered treatment for alcohol abuse, according to documents, and in 2011 sent emails admitting he had lied. In one, to his girlfriend, he said he owed “too many people too much money” and admitted that he was a pathological liar.

Bainbridge mountain bike coach Jay Abbott died Thursday, Jan. 29, four days after suffering crippling injuries during a training ride in Bainbridge’s Grand Forest Park. A statement released by his wife, Darlene Kordonowy, noted that Abbott “peacefully departed this world for uncharted trails” at dusk while in the company of friends and family. Abbott was the founder and head coach of the Gear Jay Grinders middle school Abbott mountain bike team. He fell during a training ride with members of his team on Jan. 25. It is believed he landed on his head or neck, causing severe damage to his spinal cord and cervical nerves. He appeared paralyzed in his arms and legs and remained unconscious and required a ventilator to breathe. Doctors at Harborview Medical Center in Se-
attle later determined that he had suffered brain damage and would not recover to move, swallow or breathe on his own. Abbott died surrounded by mementos from a life spent enjoying the outdoors. “His ‘best oldest’ red jacket, with dog biscuits and riding glasses in the pocket, was tucked around him for the journey,” Kordonowy’s statement said. Abbott, a longtime Bainbridge resident, recently retired after a career with Boeing. He coached a youth sailing team and remained an avid skier and cyclist, even working as a part-time bike mechanic at an island bike shop. The Gear Grinders club has pledged to keep his 22-member team going. In a post on an online memorial page, one of the young cyclists he coached promised to “keep biking, with all the enthusiasm and fun I can.” “No one will ever replace Jay’s amazing support on the team,” she wrote. “But we will keep on rolling.” Abbott’s family plans to announce a celebration of Abbott’s life soon.

“I’ve been telling people what I thought they wanted to hear for so many years, I don’t know what the truth looks like,” Leonard wrote. Court records show Leonard spent the money on everyday expenses such as ferry fares and student loans, as well as fine clothes, multiple BMWs, two attempts to summit Mount Rainier and a six-week Mediterranean cruise. He also spent about $237,000 on a Bainbridge arts education center, Return to Creativity, which closed after two years, and more than $95,000 on his girlfriend’s art studio in Port Townsend.

Island WSF ridership remains busy Washington State Ferries ridership has bottomed out and is headed back up.
BAINBRIDGEISLANDER.COM The agency last Friday released numbers that showed the largest rider jump — 2.7 percent — in at least 14 years. That’s when it lost license tab revenues, and started jacking up ticket prices and trimming service. The 2.7 percent calculates to 650,000 riders, enough to fill 260 of its largest ferries. Total 2014 ridership was 23,193,660, nowhere near the 1999 peak of 26.8 million but moving in that direction. It’s the second straight gain (1.5 percent last year) after 13 years of declines. Drivers were up 1.3 percent and passengers 3.9 percent. Bremerton led the way with a whopping 10 percent gain. Passengers were up 12.6 percent and vehicles 3.2 percent. Bainbridge rose just half a percent, but remained the busiest route at 6.3 million riders. EdmondsKingston and MukilteoClinton continued their annual duel for second. Kingston, boosted by a 3.6 percent gain, edged Mukilteo in 2014, 4 million to 3.9 million. Traffic picked up less than 1 percent at Mukilteo-Clinton. Mukilteo, however, led the system with 2,151,070 vehicles, followed by Kingston at 2,098,533 and Bainbridge with 1,953,466. Two-thirds of Bainbridge and Bremerton riders were passengers.

State parks funding may bounce back By TRISTAN BAURICK FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
There’s a growing sense at Washington State Parks that 2015 is the year things turn around. After years of deep budget cuts and the advent of the much-reviled Discover Pass, park officials say they’re getting strong support from the governor and indications that the Legislature has warmed to the idea of a better-funded park system. “The tide is turning,” Washington State Parks Commission Chairwoman Pat Lantz said. Gov. Jay Inslee wants to make a $28.4 million general fund contribution to state parks in the 20152017 budget. That’s almost $10 million more than he proposed during the last biennium. “It’s a big jump forward but it’s an appropriate jump,” Inslee said during a park commission meeting in Tumwater on Thursday. Inslee’s $28.4 million proposal is aimed at enhancing operations and maintenance with 91 more employees, boosting building preservation and improving camping facilities. He said the 124 state parks are the “crown jewels” of Washington’s growing outdoor recreation economy. A recent study commissioned by the Legislature found that about $21.6 billion is generated from outdoor recreation trips and equipment each year in Washington. A report by Inslee’s Blue Ribbon Parks & Outdoor Recreation Task Force also emphasized the economic benefits, noting that outdoor recreation supports 227,000 jobs and generates more than $1.5 billion in state and local tax revenue. “It’s no longer a secret that this is an economic engine, and the credit is yours,” Lantz said to Inslee. Inslee said his love for the state’s parks goes back to his childhood.
“Going to Twanoh State Park with my family — those were the best days,” he said, naming a popular park on Hood Canal. Giving families the opportunity to visit places like Twanoh is “one of the best duties” of state government. The governor’s budget proposal is one thing, but what the Legislature does with it is another. Despite Inslee’s proposal to spend $18.7 million from the general fund in the 2013-15 budget, the Legislature settled on $8.7 million and urged park leaders to keep coming up with fees and other revenue boosters to make up the difference. Parks commission mem-
bers have been meeting with legislators to gauge their support for Inslee’s budget request. They came away more optimistic than in years past. “We’re not having to play defense anymore,” commission member Mark Brown said. “We don’t have to defend our ask.” State parks spokeswoman Virginia Painter said park leaders have worked hard to cut costs since 2008. The good and the bad of those cost-cutting measures are now widely apparent. Visitors see fewer rangers and find fewer programs and events. “They know our bathrooms aren’t being cleaned
as often and the grounds are a little ragged,” Painter said. “And yet we’re asking them to pay to come in.” In 2011, state parks began requiring a Discover Pass, which costs an annual $30 or $10 per day. Its revenues were supposed to fill the park system’s budget gaps. “But of course that didn’t happen,” Painter said. Discover Pass revenues make up just over a quarter of the park system’s budget. That’s not likely to rise if the quality of parks continues to erode. “We have to respond to the love people have had for state parks with the proper investment,” Inslee said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Vote for priorities other than parks To the Editor: I love parks. As an open space activist I have worked hard to both save threatened parks and create new ones. But I will be voting “no” on Bainbridge Island’s Parks Proposition 1. Here’s why: 1. The proposition is not “vetted.” The public is being asked to vote on land that is more than $350,000 per acre yet has not been inspected for environmental issues. 2. The park district’s plan for this site is not transparent. We are being told we’ll all get together after the vote and figure out what to do. It is clear that some folks already know what they want to build there. So if the public process is really just theater: just what about the planned use of this land would pass the public smell test? 3. We all only get one tax bill. Each of us get just one tax bill. And that bill is getting hefty. When does yet another ‘latte a day’ tax hit add up to an aggregate ‘bottle of Champagne’ a day in added taxes? 4. Vote no: BI has more urgent priorities. We have 41 parks, 2,600 acres in our parks and BI Land Trust inventory. We are challenged to fund a new police building, fire department needs, school levies, road repair and existing parks maintenance and operations. Say yes to other BI tax priorities — vote no on Proposition 1. Sharon Gilpin FORT WARD

REMEMBER TO VOTE Bainbridge Island voters will determine three ballot measures on Feb. 10: w A Parks and Open Space bond would approve borrowing $5.9 million to finance the purchase of nearly 23 acres off Madison Avenue, except for a one-acre parcel the Sakai family would retain for a period of years. The 20-year bond’s cost is estimated at 8 cents per $1,000 in property value, or about $36 per year on a $450,000 home. w A six-year levy lid lift for fire and emergency medical services, requested by Bainbridge Island Fire District. It would allow a tax rate of 95 cents per $1,000 of property value, which is an 8-cent increase or an extra $45 per year on a $500,000 home. The revenue is earmarked to add firefighters and EMTs with the aim of fully staffing a north end station. w A bond proposal from the fire district, requesting $16 million, paid back over the next 20 years, at a rate that averages about $80 per year for the same estimated home value, primarily to replace two fire stations and renovate a third.
hope you will join me on voting yes for the purchase of the Sakai property. Right by the library and several schools, the Sakai property is big (23 acres) enough to host a wide range of activities, from P Patches to play places, and offers a little bit of wilderness for wildlife too. The 2acre pond can be stocked for young fisher folk, and I can imagine a living gardening book there; edible landscaping for all to share. Winslow is packed with people but short on recreational green spaces and this historic property offers breathing room for future generations, who will doubtless be even more crowded than we are today. The selling price is totally reasonable, as established by the price paid for the property the new Harrison Clinic is on, nearby and zoned the same way. What about taxes? Personally, I rather like to pay my local taxes, which support
so many services and amenities that benefit my family, myself and the entire island community. The tax burden will be light (about the same as a take-out dinner for two) and will simply replace expiring taxes of similar amounts.

Contact legislators on reproductive bills To the Editor: In the wake of 57 million U.S. abortions in the 42 years since Roe v. Wade (1973), our local and national annual March for Life calls for respect for all life, religious tolerance
and human rights for the most defenseless among us — the unborn. Last week, 5,000 concerned citizens gathered on the steps of our Washington State Capitol Building and Temple of Justice, inviting all legislators to stand with them in solidarity. Once again, our 23rd District legislative delegation (Sen. Rolfes, Reps. Appleton and Hansen) was AWOL, at work but too busy legislating to give an hour. I have contacted all three legislators by legislative hotline (1-800-562-6000) and emailed them, requesting they break ranks with the Senate Democratic caucus on Senate Bill 5026, an upgraded version of the Reproductive Parity Act that failed in 2014, requiring coverage for abortion services in employer-provided health plans. Respect for constitutional freedom of religion will doom this bill again in 2015. In addition, I challenge each 23rd District legislator to support Senate Bill 5289, aka “daughters’ bill,” requiring notification to parents or guardians in cases of abortion, which was introduced by Sen. Mike Padden, R-Spokane Valley, on Jan. 19. Our legislators and I share commonality with daughters who deserve nothing less than compassionate concern outlined in SB 5289. Call, write or visit Olympia to share your thoughts on the daughters’ bill and what respect for religious freedom really means to constituents. James M. Olsen BAINBRIDGE ISLAND
countywide effort involving an estimated 1,500 hours of work from volunteers around Kitsap County. The library also went beyond making the articles word searchable, adding categories to individual stories to link them together so people could read multiple stories on one topic. “We wanted to pull together some subjects to make browsing easier,” Judd said. That involved tagging each article with up to 12 subject terms, including religion, agriculture, education and the exclusion. “There were articles that

A fire at the Bainbridge Review destroyed 11 editions of the 1940s newspaper decades ago. The most significant missing paper is a special edition printed about the news of the Pearl Harbor attack and the regular edition from Dec. 12, 1941, Kitsap Regional Library said in a news release. If copies can be found, they will be added to the online resource. “We still have hope that someone might have these issues in a scrapbook or in an attic,” Judd said.

Nicole Hebner, right, girls basketball coach for Bainbridge, is also an assistant for Liz McCloskey, left, the head coach of the Spartans’ softball team in the spring. The two have been good friends since their high school days on the island.
Longtime Bainbridge friends excelling as Spartan coaches By ANNETTE GRIFFUS FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
T
here’s not too many careers out there where you can spend most of your time with your best friend. I know if I worked with my best partnerin-crime, well, we probably wouldn’t get much actual work done. For Liz McCloskey and Nicole Hebner, their lifelong friendship dates back to when they played basketball for Bainbridge under then-coach Penny Gienger. McCloskey and Hebner were on the 1999 state championship team and never dreamed then they would coach side by side. Hebner is in her third year as head girls basketball coach. McCloskey is an assistant coach. That changes come the spring season when McCloskey enters her 11th season as head coach of the Spartans’ softball team. Hebner is her assistant. That means they spend about six months as coaches during the high school seasons and even more time off of it — heck, even their players joke that they spend entirely too much time together. They even vacation together. Was the coaching scenario something McCloskey and Hebner hoped would happen? It really wasn’t on their radar, they said.
It was certainly never planned. McCloskey asked Hebner to be her assistant softball coach eight years ago. Hebner likes to joke that was the same time Bainbridge started its annual pilgrimage to the state tournament. “You always want to pair yourself with somebody you know and trust and take what they have to say to you,” McCloskey said. “It’s definitely a positive.” “Liz and I have never fought and that’s one thing that makes it nice,” Hebner said. “We pretty much agree on 90 percent (of) things brought up.” So how does the dynamic work for someone who is used to being a head coach to step back and take on the role of assistant? “For us it’s the best of both worlds,” McCloskey said. “I’m the final decision-maker in the spring and she’s the final decision-maker in the winter.” Hebner said they joke often about how one gets to be the nice, easy-going coach all the players love for a season before switching roles. They recognize the strengths of each other as head coaches and will defer to their knowledge while adding their own pearls of wisdom. It’s also nice they both SEE COACHES | 15

ANN LOVEJOY | SUSTAINABLE GARDENING
Indoor gardens help freshen air and brighten rooms M y mother, now in her 90s, has been a lifelong gardener. Though aging involves numerous indignities and losses, no longer being able to garden is an abiding grief for her. To soften that loss, I assemble seasonal container plantings on her tiny patio. That helps, but her indoor garden seems even more beneficial to her spirit. She is blessed with large, west-facing windows that let in plenty of indirect daylight. Unblocked west light can fry plants that can’t take scorching summer sun, but strong filtered light suits many houseplants down to the ground. A hot-red hibiscus that bloomed all summer is still producing the
odd blossom, and her jaunty florists’ cyclamen bloom all winter. Mom loves showboat begonias as well, from the stained glass angel wings to the spiraling Escargots. As a family, begonias are hard to beat for indoor gardens. Easy to please and eager to bloom, they will putt along for years on water alone. Pot them up into larger quarters with fresh soil every few years and they double in girth seemingly overnight. Some even reach for the sky, exceeding 10 feet in height. My mom’s apartment holds the remains of her once-full life and there’s no space for plants with take-over tendencies. Thus, the begonias we pick tend to be under 2 feet tall and wide. One of the loveliest is B. elatior Vermillion
Red, compact and shapely, with ruffled, rounded foliage and doubled rosette blooms of intense, smoky red. It’s been cranking out the blossoms for months and the buds just keep on coming. Crackling Fire Red has tidy little angel wing leaves and starbursts of fiery red flowers that bloomed outside all summer and fall and are continuing the show indoors. Mom likes red flowers, which are easy for her to see, but there are plenty of exciting nonstop begonias in other sunset colors to choose from, from cloud white through lemon and peach to coral, salmon, and flaming orange. We always have an azalea or two indoors as well, where they rebloom reliably if fed with halfstrength fertilizer every month. To keep these shallow rooted shrublets in prime condition, pot
them up into bigger quarters every other year as well. Mom’s indoor garden is in her dining area, which she can also see from her favorite reading spot. We made room for her plants by swapping out her dining table with a smaller round one and adding several plant stands along the windows. At any given time, several dozen plants beautify Mom’s home and refresh the apartment air. That’s always a good thing when folks don’t get out much, and happily, several common houseplants do a terrific job of removing pollutants from indoor air. The hardest working air cleaners are foliage plants that set off the flowers with lustrous leaves. Many do a good job, and in 2002, a World Health Organization report concluded that any combination of common ornamental
plants can significantly improve indoor air quality. Thus you can take your pick, hopefully including a few of the top ranked pollution-removers, such as asparagus fern, wax plant (Hoja carnosa), and purple waffle plant (Hemigraphis alternata). Tough, adaptable rubber plant (Ficus robusta) and purple heart (Tradescantia pallida), sword plant (Draceaena deremensis), peperomia, Boston fern (Nephrolepis exaltata “Bostoniensis”), peace lily (Spathiphyllum species) and spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum) are also good air cleaners that can thrive indoors for many years with little care.

WESLEY SCHULTZ | FROM THE CONDUCTOR
Orchestra builds community with spring performance O
ne of my favorite aspects of Bainbridge Island is the sense of community and togetherness, especially with respect to art and culture. For a small town, Bainbridge Island has a remarkable number of musical groups, theater troupes, visual artists, and more. At the Bainbridge Symphony Orchestra we have made it a core part of our mission to collaborate with as many of these arts organizations as we can. This year, we look forward to performing with the Shakespeare Society, the Bainbridge Island Youth Orchestra, the winner of the Young Artist Competition, and in late February, the Amabile Choir led by Anne Pell. Our concerts on Feb. 28 and March 1 are very special for the Bainbridge Symphony Orchestra. These performances celebrate the incredible gift of a new set
of Yamaha timpani funded by the Fletcher Bay Foundation, a long-time supporter of the orchestra. The cornerstone of the program is Michael Daugherty’s timpani concerto entitled “Raise the Roof!” in which the new set of timpani will be showcased with Gunnar Folsom serving as soloist. The work was commissioned and premiered by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra in 2003 to commemorate the opening of the Max Fisher Music Center. A rare instrument to be featured as a concerto soloist, this work will highlight the timpani both as an expressive, melodic instrument as well as a tour de force of passion and rhythmic energy. This work lives up to its name, I promise; so don’t be surprised if the roof of BPA is slightly ajar after these performances! The remainder of the program continues to
highlight the timpani but will also present works by some of America’s greatest composers. We will perform two short works by Aaron Copland including his Variations on a Shaker Melody, a powerful opening number by Pulitzer Prize winner Kevin Puts called Millennium Canons and Dvo ák’s American Suite, which was written during an extended stay of his in the United States in 1894. The final work on the program is Ludwig van Beethoven’s Choral Fantasy featuring Mark Salman on piano and Anne Pell and the Amabile Choir. I selected this work thoughtfully — envisioning it as the ideal finale for a program conceived from the idea of community spirit. As an orchestra we are grateful to all of our supporters: sponsors, grant foundations, donors, volunteers, musicians, and especially our audience. Beethoven’s grand homage to music brings to-
gether an army of musicians (orchestra, pianist, and chorus) in unity and strength. Bainbridge Island is an incredible place to make music, and this program is our gift to you. Wesley Schultz is music director and conductor of the Bainbridge Symphony Orchestra.

Police records advocate helps departments comply Tim Clemans is working on a process to allow police departments to automatically post 95 percent of their footage. By ANDREW BINION FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
A self-taught computer programmer from Seattle who flummoxed police departments across the state with bulk requests for body camera footage — the Poulsbo Police Department in particular — is set to be the department’s newest volunteer. Tim Clemans, who has gone by monikers like “the requester” or “anon anon” when requesting all the footage gathered by body cameras worn by police, met last week with Poulsbo Chief Al Townsend and other city officials. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss how Clemans is helping other departments automate redaction processes as well as automatically post videos and other government documents. The departments he has worked with include Seattle, Bellingham, Yakima and others. The Poulsbo meeting ended with the promise to meet in February with the body camera company with which the department contracts, Evidence. com. Body cameras have been proposed as a way to help prosecute cases and a way to help clear up accusations of misconduct. Clemans sees himself as an activist pushing departments to consider the ramifications of new technology, be it body camera footage or emails, in a state where the public has a right to see almost all of the documents the government produces. He also wants to help them
find solutions. He does not charge for his services but said that one day it might turn into a consulting job. And considering how much work the department would have had to put in to fulfill a request for all of its footage, Clemans said his intent is not to keep police officers like Poulsbo Sgt. Andy Pate off the road. Pate has been tasked with reviewing each video, from start to finish. “What we’re trying to do is be transparent and keep you on your motorcycle,” Clemans said. Clemans’ first request to Poulsbo, made late last year, had the department putting in 20 to 40 hours just to estimate it would take four years to fill the request with Pate working an hour a day, every day, reviewing video to determine whether faces or names or numbers had to be redacted. And that is just counting the video the department had on hand at the time of the arrest. At this point, it has about 2,000 videos in its computer system, Pate said. Clemans canceled the request after the department said it was going to attempt to find those shown in the footage and allow them to ask a judge to prevent its release, which is part of state law. Clemans said Poulsbo was the only department to take that step, a sign that it respected the privacy of those officers had filmed. However, the meeting Thursday was prompted by a second “mega request” for all of the department’s footage. Clem-
ans agreed to cancel that request, and the city will work on posting 10 sample videos for public view on the city website. He also has been working on a process for departments to automatically post 95 percent of their footage — about the percentage of footage that does not require heavy redactions because it deals with sexual assaults or other sensitive issues. “This is very easy technology to develop,” Clemans said. “It’s already at a point that it could be used now.” Footage requested through the Public Document Act could go through another automated program designed to remove certain names or numbers or faces, if need be. “The more labor-intensive it is for us, the less lively it will work,” Townsend said. Clemans takes exceptions to suggestions that his intent was to gather footage for commercial gain. The process Clemans is proposing would strip audio from the footage, convert it to black and white and blur the image enough so that residents could tell what was happening, but not identify the people shown. The footage would then be posted to a public video website, like YouTube. com. “These are not going to be watched for entertainment purposes,” he said. Since viewing the videos, Clemans said he has gained a new respect for law enforcement, and he believes if the public could see the sometimes boring, sometimes dangerous parts of their jobs, they would, too. “To me, I thought a DUI arrest would be boring,” Clemans said. “But that is not the case.”
COACH E S | F ROM 11
have a sounding board when times are tough. “She’s an extra ear for me to vent to and throw ideas at in the spring and in the wintertime, I’m the same for her,” McCloskey said. But what really makes this coach pairing work is they share the same philosophy. McCloskey said the players come first and it’s the coaches’ job to make those players better people first and better athletes second. “Our three main things are family, school and that sport you’re playing right now,” McCloskey said. “I think that we provide that balance for the kids.” Of course, having your best bud at your side also means you have an advocate, if needed. And yes, that has happened. McCloskey remembered an instance after a game when she was railed on by a parent. Her rule has always been for a player to talk to the coaches first to
iron out any issues. McCloskey figured it was settled after talking to the player. Not so fast. Following a lopsided win, McCloskey and Hebner were walking to their cars when the player’s mother raced her SUV right in front of the two women, rolled down her window, and started to berate McCloskey. The daughter was in the front row and mortified over her mother’s behavior. “She’s going nuts. I couldn’t get a word in,” McCloskey said. She didn’t need to. Hebner stepped in and defended her friend. The mother rolled up her window and left. “People can’t just attack a good friend of mine and someone I have a ton of respect for,” Hebner said. Thankfully, those instances have been few and far between. McCloskey has had success on the softball diamond, including a state-tournament streak that started in 200607. McCloskey and Hebner were together when the
Spartans won the Class 3A state title in 2009. Hebner is continuing to build the girls program — they also coach fifth-sixth grade girls basketball for the Roots program on the island and like the talent coming up — in a tough Metro League. Hebner said folks on the island have been understanding about just how competitive the league is and letting her do her job. “When it comes to patience, I think the parents and kids are realistic,” Hebner said, adding she doesn’t want to use the talent of the league as an excuse not to succeed. “Ultimately, the goal is we want to be successful.” It’s no surprise then that Hebner credits her good friend with starting her on her coaching journey. And when the coaching circle means you spend quality time with someone you cherish, there’s not much that can surpass that. “We’re very fortunate,” Hebner said. “It’s been a blast.”

New transit center moving forward Traffic fixes coming By ED FRIEDRICH FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
Kitsap Transit finally will break ground on a new north base that will include a transfer center and 269stall park-and-ride lot, but no bus fueling and washing facilities. The transit board Tuesday approved a $9.4 million award to Ceccanti Inc., for the project near the intersection of Highway 305 and Viking Road. The Tacoma firm’s low bid of $12.7 million included options for the fueling and washing buildings, which was more than Kitsap Transit had budgeted. Kitsap Transit’s engineer estimated the cost, when contractors were hungrier for work, at $8.5 million to $10.5 million. The agency needs about $3 million more, said Steffani
Lillie, service and capital development director. Kitsap Transit is exploring means to build the fueling and washing stations later. They include: w Using some of the $10 million in reserves. w Long-term financing. w Short-term line of credit. w Fuel hedging. It budgeted fuel for 2015 at $3.75 per gallon. If it can lock in the cost at the current $1.75, the difference would be hundreds of thousands of dollars. Last year, when it also budgeted $3.75 but spent an average of $2.89, it saved about $550,000, said finance director Paul Shinners. w Carry over to the 2016 budget. Other variables further scramble the puzzle. Several grants are involved and all have been extended as long as they can. Kitsap Tran-
sit, which started planning the north base in 2006, can’t buy any more time. The grants for the base project and two options are intertwined. If the agency doesn’t go forward with the fueling and washing facilities, it’ll lose $3 million to $6 million in grants. “We would be going ahead with the expectation that we’re going to exercise those options,” said executive director John Clauson. If Kitsap Transit doesn’t go ahead with the options now, it not only will lose the grant money but the facilities will cost more later, with inflation, and the contractor having to mobilize and demobilize a second time. Construction on the project will begin in late March and be completed by the end of the year, Lillie said.
‘Friendlier’ approach to bulkhead removal New county program intended to help owners remove barriers. By TRISTAN BAURICK FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
Kitsap County is using friendly faces, free advice and little money to encourage shoreline property owners to tear out their bulkheads. Thanks to a $366,000 grant from the state Department of Fish and Wildlife, the county will soon initiate a program that provides incentives for property owners to remove bulkheads and other forms of shore armoring that are considered harmful to marine habitats. Bulkheads have been a target for marine ecologists for years, but talk of removing them typically raises the ire of owners. “So we want to take a friendly approach,” said Kathy Peters, the county’s habitat biologist. The grant will help start a “shore friendly ambassador” program that enlists
volunteers who will make initial contact with property owners. “We’ve found that the first contact should not be from anybody regulatory,” Peters said. Trained by the Kitsap branch of the Washington State University Extension service, the volunteers and their neighborly approach are expected to ease property owners into the idea of bulkhead removal. Then comes the incentives. The county plans to offer free geotechnical engineering assessments to give owners an idea of how bulkhead removal might affect their properties. The county also might offer financial assistance for permitting costs and a more streamlined permitting process. Surveys of shoreline property owners indicate that the high cost of bulkhead removal and permitting hassles are the biggest barriers to voluntary
bulkhead removal, Peters said. The county hopes to use the program to remove bulkheads from five and 20 properties. Bulkheads and rock walls are installed to reduce erosion caused by waves. But by deflecting wave energy, sand and sediments are scoured from the shore, leaving bedrock or cobble beaches. This leaves little sediment or marine vegetation for herring and other fish to spawn or habitat for small fish that serve as food for larger animals. “Salmon are beneficiaries, as well as orcas, if you
have a healthy beach,” Peters said. Kitsap’s grant is a portion of $1.6 million Fish and Wildlife divided among five applicants this month. Other beneficiaries included the Mason County Conservation District, which is getting $315,000, and Northwest Straits Foundation, which plans to use its $312,000 grant to encourage bulkhead removal in Jefferson and Clallam counties. The money comes from a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency fund that supports actions to improve the health of Puget Sound.
across Agate Pass By ED FRIEDRICH FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
Suquamish Clearwater Casino has agreed to share its parking garage with Kitsap Transit riders, sparing the agency from having to build a new park-and-ride lot and freeing money to improve the Highway 305-Suquamish Way intersection. The transit agency, which had received a regional mobility grant, agreed Tuesday to let the Department of Transportation use $2.3 million to design and build the project, with transit input. Improvements will include removing the parkand-ride lot from the north side of the highway and building a separated rightturn lane to Suquamish Way ($1.2 million), adding a right-in, right-out driveway to the casino near Agate Pass Bridge ($400,000), and installing bicycle-onbridge lights ($100,000). Design should be completed in about a month, said Steffani Lillie, Kitsap Transit’s service and capital development director. The project is expected to go to bid this summer, said DOT project engineer Michele Britton. Transit board members said Tuesday that this is just a start, but an important one. “Unfortunately, we don’t have the funding to bet-
ter address the issues of that intersection, but this is a necessary first step,” transit board member and County Commissioner Rob Gelder said. “It’s a Band-Aid at best, but it’s a necessary Band-Aid.” Transit board member and Poulsbo Mayor Becky Erickson said it’s the most congested area in the county. “This is going to go a long, long way to help it,” she said. “It’s a step in the right direction.” Westbound buses will get their own right lane to drop and pick up passengers at the intersection, then have an early green light to beat other traffic off the line, called queue jumping. State Sen. Christine Rolfes, D-Bainbridge Island, headed an effort to get $750,000 from the 2012 Legislature to identify a solution. Alternatives were trimmed to three for further study. They were: w Extending the westbound Highway 305 rightturn lane. w Building a separated right-turn lane on westbound Highway 305. w Building a custom-designed roundabout in the intersection. The roundabout was too expensive. DOT concluded that the separated rightturn lane provided the best potential for gaining public support and construction funding in the near term.

Schools learning to deal with community trauma By CHRIS HENRY FOR BAINBRIDGE ISLANDER
It’s been a tough year for schools in Kitsap County. In Central Kitsap, there was the recent traffic death of three Olympic High School teens; the driver, 17, was charged with vehicular homicide. And in August, incoming Oly senior Gabe Gaeta, a member of the school’s wrestling team, was arrested on suspicion of raping and murdering his 6-year-old neighbor Jenise Wright. In North Kitsap, word of a middle school student’s suicide in January spread quickly on social media and was the subject of public comments at a recent school board meeting. And on Bainbridge Island, two teachers and a retired teacher died of various causes during 2014. On Thursday, mountain bike coach Jay Abbott died four days after suffering crippling injuries in a biking fall. Even when traumatic events happen outside of school grounds, schools become the center of students’ reaction to upsetting events. Local experts on youth and emotional trauma say school counselors, teachers and other staff increasingly are the first line of response to students’ collective grief. Districts have always dealt with traumatic death. But with social media, they’re now often a step behind the information (and misinformation) being shared online. School officials are keenly aware of online forums as a virtual gathering place when trauma occurs, and that’s changing how they respond. “We realize the web of connection is much larger, and that has caused us to think more about community groups and schools,” said Franklyn Mackenzie, CKSD’s director of secondary education. “I also think you have to react
THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT SUICIDE
w Suicide is the second leading cause of death among high school age youth. w Risk factors include mental illness, substance abuse, previous attempts, firearms in household, nonsuicidal self-injury, exposure to friends’ or families’ suicidal behavior and low self-esteem. w Warning signs include feelings of helplessness, anxiety, no sense of purpose in life, sense of feeling “trapped,” increased alcohol or drug use, withdrawal, anger, recklessness, mood changes, giving away prized possessions. — National Center for the Prevention of Youth Suicide
Suicide prevention resources w Kitsap Mental Health, offers support services and “mental health first aid” training, www.kitsapmentalhealth.org, 360-3735031 (main line), 360-373-3425 (24-hour emergency response). w National Child Traumatic Stress Network, nctsnet.org. w Suicide Prevention Resource Center, www.sprc.org. w National Center for the Prevention of Youth Suicide, www.suicidology.org. w Teen Link, 866-833-6546, 6 to 10 p.m. daily including holidays, 866teenlink.org, or email teenlink@crisisclinic.org.
more quickly, because the information gets out there so quickly.” That was apparent at Bremerton High School following the traffic collision in Seabeck that took the lives of Jenna Farley, 14, of Bremerton, Kassidy Clark, 16, of East Bremerton, and Luther Stoudermire, 18, of East Bremerton, all of whom attended Olympic High. The Monday after the crash, “We were slammed. We had lines out the door,” said Lisa LeSueur, a Bremerton School District ninthgrade counselor. “They’re so interconnected, our two schools.” Even for students who didn’t know the “Oly 3,” their deaths stirred up sadness from loss in their own lives, a common reaction to traumatic events. “Kids who are living in grief and chaos, even if they didn’t know the student, it is just very impactful on their lives,” LeSueur said. Social media “does make it hard to contain information; it’s just in everyone’s face,” she said. Schools are bound by student privacy regulations and, in the case of suicide, concerns about increasing the risk among
students who already have suicidal thoughts. Thinking on that has changed, especially with the proliferation of social media, according to Kristin Schutte, director of Olympic Educational Service District, which assists schools with managing mental health issues. According to Schutte, current best practices call for schools to share basic information about traumatic incidents with students and families, along with resources for support. The Kitsap County Department of Emergency Management in 2008 contracted with the Olympic Educational Service District to develop an emergency response manual for schools, including a section on traumatic events. Schutte, in the manual, cites practices vetted by the National Child Traumatic Stress Network and the Suicide Prevention Resource Center among others. The manual includes sample statements for different grade levels that a teacher or other staff member could use to tell a class about the death of a student or other traumatic incident. The sample statements are mat-
ter-of-fact and detailed enough to curtail rumors, while showing sensitivity to families of students involved. According to LeSueur, schools have become more methodical and proactive over the past decade in preparing for the community traumas that sadly seem to be inevitable, although many are preventable. In Kitsap County, a big part of that is training provided by the Olympic Educational Service District. Schutte oversees training of school counselors, nurses and school psychologists at each district, who in turn train fellow staff members in recognizing and responding to students’ mental distress. These staff members are the first responders when a crisis arises. In CKSD and NKSD, as in other districts, staff meet periodically to review and update plans for different scenarios. When a student’s death or other trauma occurs, the first responders meet as soon as possible, even on weekends, to make a plan and communicate it to other staff. “We have an all-handson-deck mentality,” said Jeff Sweeney, NKSD’s director of secondary education. One of the first things school officials consider is, “Who are the students most heavily impacted by the news?” This often includes siblings in other schools and friends in neighboring districts. The needs of staff members who might be hit hard by the loss also are taken into account, and substitutes are made available to relieve them as needed. Schutte coordinates with districts and is able to draw in trained counselors from other districts or, if circumstances dictate, outside child trauma specialists. Schools make counselors available to grieving stu-
dents. While classes continue to the extent possible, a certain degree of schedule disruption is accepted. The trauma team debriefs daily during the peak of the crisis to plan the next day’s response. Sometimes parent meetings or class presentations from grief experts are called for, according to the trauma manual. As for spontaneous or planned memorials like those for the Oly 3, “we don’t really have a protocol,” MacKenzie said. “We just try to let them happen as best we can, because that’s part of the grieving. We really try to respond to that.” The recent youth suicide in North Kitsap has sparked a discussion within the community and heightened a focus on suicide prevention. Maddie Roszak, a North Kitsap
student now in Running Start at Olympic College, spoke to the school board shortly afterward calling for more widespread training of junior high and high school students in recognizing signs a friend might be feeling suicidal and where to get help. The district, like others, lists resources on its website, but Roszak said it needs to be easier to find. North Kitsap High School has two studentrun youth suicide prevention groups, according to Sweeney, who added that district officials debrief after every event to try to improve their response. “We are a learning organization, and we are constantly looking for ways to become more efficient and proficient,” he said. “This has heightened our awareness, and we continue to look to grow.”
