POULSBO — The third public hearing on a proposed school closure brought in just as many community members as the first. With the North Kitsap
School Board room filled to capacity, and people listening from the lobby, advocates for Wolfle Elementary School made their case for why the school should not be closed, during a public hearing Wednesday.
Public speakers included teachers and staff members, school volunteers, and those who have a stake in the school. Before the meeting, Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe Chairman Jeromy Sullivan
said his grandfather told him Wolfle can’t close. All S’Klallam children have attended Wofle, Sullivan told the school board. Sullivan then outlined examples of how the Tribe and school have worked together —
reading nights, summer school, helping build a culturally-relevant curriculum, and sharing Native art and music. “The [S’Klallam] Tribe See closure, Page A13

PORT GAMBLE — Pope Resources backed out of a mill site cleanup agreement it reached with the state Department of Ecology in October, hoping to keep future removal of two docks as leverage for a new dock proposed on Port Gamble’s northern shore. Because Pope Resources backed out of the agreement, called a Natural Resources Damages Agreement, $7 million in state funding allocated to meet Ecology’s end of the agreement — shoreline acquisition and other environmental improvements — could cease to be available. And Tim Nord, manager of Ecology’s Toxics Cleanup Program, said Pope could be forced to remove the docks anyway; he’s been directed to prepare an enforcement order, he said Wednesday. The $7 million is a big chunk of the $12 million that’s been raised from various sources for acquisition of North Kitsap land and shoreline that’s being sold by Pope Resources. The Kitsap Forest & Bay Project — a coalition that includes conservation groups, the county, Ecology, the state Department of Natural Resources, the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe and the Suquamish Tribe — want to buy the land and shoreline for

POULSBO — Two boxer-breed dogs attacked and killed a dog in Poulsbo and attacked a woman and dog in Winslow last weekend. One boxer is quarantined at the Kitsap Humane Society. The other is at home in Poulsbo with its 29-yearold owner, who must decide whether to surrender her dog or register it as a Potentially Dangerous Animal. She could face a charge in Kitsap County District Court of violating Poulsbo’s dangerous dog ordinance. The first attack was reported Feb.
Ivy, a 9-month-old bichon frise, was killed by two boxers when they escaped from their owner’s yard Feb. 15 in Poulsbo. The same dogs attacked another dog the next day on Bainbridge Island. Dan Malone / Contributed 15 about 10 p.m. on 15th Loop just off Hostmark Street in Poulsbo. A woman was walking her brother’s dog Ivy, a 9-month-old bichon frise, when two boxers and a beagle charged at them. The boxers, Chief and Oscar, attacked Ivy, according
to the Poulsbo Police report and witness statements. The beagle, Gorst, apparently did not attack, according to witness statements. The woman’s husband, Dale
Townsend is mayor’s choice for police chief; confirmation vote could come March 6 By RICHARD WALKER

POULSBO — Poulsbo Mayor Becky Erickson announced her choice for chief of police Wednesday: Alan Townsend, a Bangor resident who is currently the police chief of Port Orchard. The City Council will vote
either March 6 or 13 to confirm Townsend. Start date and salary were not discussed Wednesday, but the job was advertised with a base salary of $101,000 to $106,000 a year. Townsend, 47, has been Port Orchard’s chief of police since 1999 and earns $126,000 a year.
If confirmed, Townsend will succeed Dennis Swiney, who retired in January and returned to his hometown of Visalia, Calif. Deputy Chief Robert Wright has been acting chief. Prior to Port Orchard, Townsend was with the Lincoln, Neb., Police Department. He has a bachelor’s

Dog attack
Continued from page A1 Owen, said his wife visits Poulsbo every other weekend to visit her mother and brother, Dan Malone, who is their mother’s caregiver. Owen said Ivy was Malone’s “pride and joy” and was a “fun bundle of life.” “She was just the sweetest little thing in the world,” Malone said. “I’m staggered by all this.” Malone said his dog’s death has caused a “vacuum” in the home he shares with his mom, who has Alzheimer’s. Ivy was more than just a pet for Malone, she was an investment. Ivy was the pup of two national dog show champions, and Malone said he planned to breed and show Ivy. Malone paid $4,000 for her. He said the bill from the veterinarian for trying to save her life was about $2,300. Malone hinted that he might sue. “I would like to get that [money] returned to me. I don’t want it to all be about money, but it is in the end. I’d just like [the

boxer’s owner] to make it right, that’s all. I hope she doesn’t suffer too much either.” Chase Connolly, animal control and enforcement officer for KHS, said the boxers had leashes on but apparently broke out of their yard. According to the police report, a witness was able to pick up Ivy during the attack, but the dog had been bitten several times and was bleeding heavily. Veterinarians at the Poulsbo Animal Emergency Clinic were unable to save Ivy. The owner of the dogs took the boxers and beagle back to her residence nearby and she was interviewed by KHS animal control officers. The next day, the boxers again attacked a dog and its owner, this time at Madison Avenue and Wyatt Way on Bainbridge Island, about 8:45 a.m. According to the Bainbridge Police report, a woman was walking her small poodle, Buster, on Madison Avenue when two “boxer-type dogs” ran across the street toward her. One of the dogs began biting Buster, and when
Poulsbo man hospitalized with burns from gas fire POULSBO — A 79-yearold man was in stable condition at Harborview Medical Center this week, being treated for burns received in a tractor fire that spread to his barn Sunday. The man was refueling his tractor when the heat from the engine caused the gas to ignite, Poulsbo Fire Department spokeswoman Jody Matson reported. Firefighters from Poulsbo, Bainbridge Island, North Kitsap Fire and Rescue, and Navy Region Northwest went to the scene near Lincoln and Port Gamble roads with several
Poulsbo Animal Clinic
engines and water tenders at 3:30 p.m. Feb. 17. Crews found a 20- by 40-foot barn fully engulfed in flames and the man seriously injured. The man was first taken to Harrison Medical Center in Bremerton and then flown to Harborview's Burn Unit. The barn was located next to a shed and had several 55-gallon barrel "holding tanks" with fuel. Firefighters were able to keep the tanks doused with water to prevent an explosion> The fire spread to an attached shed. It took nearly an hour to completely extinguish the fire.

the owner reached down to get her dog away from the attack, the boxer bit her on the hand and on the calf. A man “came running and yelling at the dogs to stop,” according to the report, and he took the dogs back to his residence on Madison. The man said he was watching the dogs for a friend, and when he went to take the dogs outside to go potty, “Oscar got loose and ran off. When he went to run after Oscar, the other dog Chief also got loose,” according to the police report. The man said he saw one of the dogs biting the poodle. According to the Bainbridge report, the Poulsbo woman said she took the boxers to the man’s house on Madison Avenue to watch after the Poulsbo incident. After the second incident, one of the boxers was surrendered to KHS, Connolly said. The Poulsbo woman owns one
Page A3
of the boxers and her mother owns the other; Connolly said the mother freely surrendered the boxer. As of Thursday, the boxer’s owner had not notified KHS as to whether she would keep her dog, with restrictions, or surrender it, Connolly said. “After attacking two dogs, [the boxers] should be sequestered. They’ll just go after other animals,” he said. Once the dogs are in custody, Connolly said their fate is up to the behavior
team — the dogs could be retrained and adopted out, or euthanized. Owners of Potentially Dangerous Dogs must choose one or more of four options: re-train the dog; muzzle, leash and collar when in public or on the owner’s property; isolate the dog on the owner’s property; and/or remove the dog from the county. The owner must also post a sign warning a dangerous dog is on their property. Connolly said the boxers appeared to be about three
years old and home-trained. He said the investigation is ongoing. Owen expressed frustration with how animal crimes are handled. “There’s no accountability in our system. In our society, it’s a property crime,” Owen said. “We don’t value the lives of the dogs, we don’t hold the owner accountable. [Crimes like these are] the equivalent of damaging someone’s property or lawnmower.”

IN OUR OPINION
Pope must agree to cleanup plan it made with DOE O
lympic Property Group’s demand to the Department of Ecology that OPG be allowed to keep two docks at the old mill site until it gets permission to build a new dock on the north shore of Port Gamble, outside of the bay, seems to be little more than a strategic move to guarantee it gets the new dock it wants. Here’s OPG’s message: The state wants us to remove two old docks as part of the cleanup plan. We’ll remove the old docks, but only after we get permission to build a new dock. If we and the state can’t reach agreement on this, millions of dollars in legislative funding for shoreline acquisition and a variety of community amenities will go away. All of this comes one month before the expiration of an option agreement by which the Kitsap Forest & Bay Coalition is raising money to buy Pope Resources’ North Kitsap forestland for public open space and trails. Good timing. Let’s boil this down. One, Pope Resources, OPG’s parent company, must clean up the old mill site, remove old pilings and remove wood waste from the bay floor. Two, Pope Resources has submitted to the county a master plan for development of Port Gamble. Master plan approval will be decided by the county based on current zoning regulations, not on whether Pope completes a cleanup agreement with the state. Likewise, Pope’s proposed new dock is also unrelated to the cleanup. Three, OPG claims that the timing of the dock removal is important — that when it applies for a new dock, it must have something to remove in order to offset the environmental impacts of the new dock. Ecology is one of the agencies that would permit the new dock. Tim Nord, director of Ecology’s Toxics Cleanup Program, said removal of the old docks and approval of the new dock are not tied together. Ecology’s message is, the old docks must come down anyway. When the new dock is proposed, other restoration work can be considered for their mitigation value. Pope Resources entered the Department of Ecology’s Voluntary Clean-up Program 11 years ago, meaning cleanup would be cooperative, not enforced. According to OPG, Pope Resources has spent more than $10 million “remediating landfills, contaminated soils in town and on the millsite itself. Two woodwaste dredging projects were also performed in the Bay.” In a letter to conservation advocates, OPG President Jon Rose wrote, “We made it clear to DOE that once the clean-up was complete, Pope Resources intended to re-develop Port Gamble to the thriving town it once was.” But cleanup and redevelopment are not tied together. While Pope entered Ecology’s cleanup program voluntarily, there is nothing voluntary about the cleanup. The $10 million Pope Resources has invested in cleanup was going to be spent anyway. And cleanup is never a guarantee of future development. Washington’s shorelines are littered with sites where fortunes were made and environmental catastrophe was left behind. Look no further than the Duwamish River, which is a Superfund cleanup site. As this editorial is written, a contractor is removing 500 tons of soil contaminated with mercury from the former Georgia-Pacific pulp mill on the Bellingham waterfront. See EDITORIAL, Page A5
Owners don’t deserve to have a dog This letter is regards to the American Eskimo dog that was found — hungry, bloody feet, scared to death — under the Agate Pass Bridge back in January. The owners took the time to purchase this dog, give it a home for five years and microchip her, but declined to go pick her up from the Kitsap Humane Society when they were contacted. Instead, they told them to keep her; they would not pay the fees to pick her up and bring her back to the family that she loved unconditionally. You scumbags. You should be brought up on charges of abandonment. If she was a human being, you would be in jail. Something is mentally wrong with you people. She is in a loving home now. You do not deserve such a sweet animal. Deborah Bowers Sequim
Opposed to proposed tax on millionaires I read with interest the latest scheme by the folks in Olympia to levy a special tax on “millionaires” (Feb. 8 North Kitsap Herald, page A1). First, many of these “millionaires” are small-business persons whose sales are usually at the $1 million mark. Take out such things as expenses and taxes, and many of these “millionaires” are lucky to be left with a shiny new nickel for themselves. Second, punishing success is not the way to go. Remember that it’s from these “millionaires” that jobs are created. And, with private sector jobs shrinking, why kill the goose that lays the golden eggs? Government is shrinking as well because of declining revenues, so Washington may as well stop relying on the federal government for its sustenance from the bases. If “millionaires” decide to leave, just as they’ve left California, there will be a massive economic contrac-
tion. But then, go ahead, have your “class warfare.” With this “millionaire,” it’s hasta la vista, baby! Walter Jacque, MBA Poulsbo
Tribes should cede authority over fireworks Recent articles in the Herald urge the empowerment of Tribal governments to assume domesticviolence criminal jurisdiction over non-Tribal residents. The U.S. Supreme Court decision Oliphant v. Suquamish Tribe 1978 was a landmark de facto “treaty right,” affirming clearly defined legal status for non-Tribal persons. I am in total agreement that domestic violence offenders should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Every July 4 and at various times throughout the year, non-Tribal residents of the Port Madison Reservation are subjected to intense domestic tranquility violence. These high-explosive fireworks rattle windows, terrify domestic pets, and may well cause hearing damage to young children. Tribal governments exercise their sovereign authority over the sale and discharge of these dangerous explosive devices. Tribal leaders speak so eloquently of government-to-government relationships, so I suggest they enter into an agreement in which the non-Tribal community

Miracle Bowl raises money for miracles The Miss West Sound Scholarship Program held its Miracle Bowl fundraiser on Feb. 10 at the All Star Lanes in Silverdale. We raised more than $3,000 to split between the Children’s Miracle Network, the Caring for Carmen Fund for Carmen Garringer, and the Miss West Sound Scholarship Program. The number of individuals who came out in support of these three organizations was extraordinary. Approximately 50 teams of enthusiastic bowlers filled the bowling alley over the course of six hours. Gift cards, candy and other prizes, donated by individuals and businesses in Kitsap County, were awarded for the most spirited team, the team with the highest total score at the end of each session, gutter balls, strikes, and spares. Participants had the opportunity to purchase Caring for Carmen bracelets and T-shirts and, See LETTERS, Page A5 CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING (800) 388-2527 classified@soundpublishing.com

Kingston could be ‘the’ place to live An aerial view of the Puget Sound provides an important understanding that the east side is developed to its max. Knowing a little about what’s up on Bainbridge Island instructs that “the 2 percent” will soon own all properties and relish in its exclusivity. Accepting the culture of Bremerton presents a clear choice of lifestyle and commitment. All of this will lead to Kingston’s possible future, or a vision thereof. Someday these awful wars will end and the USA will need to convert its wartime economy into one that only maintains a solid defensive military posture that supports a normalsized military. So, Kingston
we appreciate the efforts that are going into making Port Gamble a viable town. But we have a right too — to not live with the environmental impacts of 142 years of industrial use on the shoreline. Pope Resources should do the right thing and sign the plan — an agreement it reached in October with Ecology — and pursue its new dock during the master plan process for redevelopment of Port Gamble.
With the looming fear of living in her car or a shelter, Ms. Smith visited Fishline for answers. She was introduced to the Home Share Program, which offered her what seemed to be a small miracle. Her landlord approved a second individual in the home and a roommate was located and screened. The roommate paid half the rent and utilities. Ms. Smith was able to stay in her rental, keep her pets, and the roommate was equally as happy to have found a secure and affordable housing option for herself and her cat. In these trying financial times, it takes very little
to upset the stability we have come to rely upon. An illness, loss of job or a family crisis can quickly lead to homelessness for the most unlikely of people. While we cannot solve all the housing issues of our economic times, we have created a “housing bridge” to link home providers and home seekers to a temporary solution for an immediate and urgent problem. Each and every Home Share situation is unique and should be considered a viable option for anyone seeking affordable housing options. Home owners at risk of foreclosure can access the Home Share
Program to place a renter in the home and supplement the house payment. Individuals and couples with limited incomes can access the Home Share Program to find a room for rent, making life a bit easier until their income improves or they are able to get into low income housing. Anyone interested in applying for the Home Share Program should contact North Kitsap Fishline at 779-5190. — Rae Rodriguez is client services manager for North Kitsap Fishline.

might do well to dream ahead. What surely will come about is a more diverse economy that offers more transportable information/ consulting/coordinating types of employment that will allow families to have more flexibility as to where they can live and raise a family in a more peaceful world. With the new high school — and parents, educators and coaches dedicated to education — as well as arts, sports and a fair dose of international educational opportunities, Kingston can be the first in line to attract middle- and high-middle-income homebuyers who want out of all the constrictions, materialism and conflicts existing in the areas noted above. These future families may want into what Kingston — Puget Sound’s “Port of Peace” — has to offer to these potential future residents. Kingston is a very special town. I hail from the region in Massachusetts where middle-school students were
supported in their quest for a better world. (Google “pagesforpeace.org” and check out what the students, teachers and parents in that community did.) Somewhere around Puget Sound, a similar township will think ahead, plan for a more peaceful community, and open its arms to peace seeking people. Kingston might be it!

SB 5328 will do nothing to improve the status quo By James U. Behrend
R
egarding Senate Bill 5328: In war, the generals and political leader are held responsible for success or failure of a battle. Nobody would blame the troops for a Waterloo, Stalingrad, or Dien Bien Phu. However, in education, the teachers fighting in the trenches of learning are always and
exclusively blamed for a student’s failure. And, if Senate Bill 5328 passes, an “accountability index” will award “non-performing” schools and teachers a big scarlet letter “A”. SB 5328 plans to establish a “School Grading Program” based on the progress a school makes. This seems like a sensible idea. Students should oper-
ate and test on their grade level, and teachers, just like the politicians, should represent the cream of the crop. The reality, however, is different. Teachers, already working 60 to 70 hours, must educate 150 highly individual teenagers of dissimilar academic abilities and interests. According to state Sen.
Steve Litzow, R-Mercer Island, only 76 percent of our students graduate (The Seattle Times, Feb. 8). Who was teaching these 76 percent? And what were the other 24 percent doing while obviously some teaching and learning was going on? The problem with SB 5328 is that the sponsors apply a business approach
of measurable productivity to teaching. However, while there are incompetent teachers and administrators, the system’s deficiency is not the teachers’ fault. SB 5328 sees a student as some object that can be shaped into usefulness, like a tree into 2 by 4s. SB 5328 expects teachers to do the shaping, even if the “raw
material” does not cooperate, lacks essential ingredients, or may not even be present to participate in the shaping. Senators, the essence of a human being is different from an inorganic substance. A child has a soul, and potential, and some strong non-conformist genes. Have you ever tried See BEHREND, Page A7

No place for apathy in today’s America As a female, native Washingtonian and long -time resident of Kitsap County, I would like to encourage my neighbors to examine the various ways in which our American Constitution is currently under attack. As a well-educated populous, many of us are well aware that this attack has been ongoing for decades, throughout many administrations. It just happens to have been accelerating at a truly alarming rate within the past few years; and the speed at which our rights are being infringed upon is mind boggling at this
European and Asian students test higher than U.S. students. Why not find out why and how and what they are doing and borrow their best ideas? Many European countries offer their students a several-track high school experience, including night high school. President Obama, in his 2013 State of the Union address, praised the German vocational high school system consisting of several tracks. The state of Lower Saxony has, like Washington, some 7 million population, but it is divided into only four school districts; we have 295. Is that sensible from an educational and financial point of view? (The perstudent cost in Germany is $4,682; in the U.S., $7,743). Our legislators don’t really have a clue what’s going on in today’s classroom. I, too, had no idea either when I switched from being a business owner to teach-

What I faced was a bit like Plato’s two realities: my World of Ideas clashed with the school’s World of Reality. In my first year of teaching, I had 11 sophomores who did not finish junior high school (they tested on a fifth- to seventh-grade level). One student came with his own parole officer. One student went hunting for 10 days right after school began. Two students spoke no English. Ten percent of students were always missing school (more than 100 per day). Some 20 percent did not bother with homework. In my last year of teaching, our classes were “mainstreamed.” I had special education students and AP kids in one room, to practice “Differentiated Instruction,” OSPI’s thenlatest folly to raise productivity.

Redbird, Reece are wrestling champs TACOMA — Up until Feb. 15, Kingston High School senior Sonya Redbird had never wrestled at the Mat Classic. Redbird, who began wrestling five years ago, didn’t seem to be bothered by that. Redbird, a senior, pinned Todd Beamer’s Vanessa Dixon with less than 20 seconds left in the match, becoming the champion in the 145-pound division on Feb. 16. Bobby Reece, her coach for the majority of her high school wrestling career, said Redbird came from behind in almost all her matches. “For anybody to show up the first time and win it … It’s really unbelievable,” he said. “She was shocked.” Redbird took second at the district tournament earlier in the season. She was the regional champion in the 145pound division. Reece said “something clicked” during Regionals, which put her on track to go to and be successful at State. And though some athletes settle for going to State, Redbird kept pushing, he said. “She was so determined,” Reece said. “It didn’t matter what was in front of her.” Redbird was down 3-2 against Dixon when her hips dropped at a critical moment. Reece said he’s told Redbird for years to keep her hips off the mat. That’s when Redbird See Titles, Page A9

Though winning his fourth title was in the back of his mind all season, he said he focused on how to finish the match. It was a close match against Reddaway, but Velarde said he was content with how he was wrestling. As the match neared its end, Velarde could tell Reddaway was getting tired, his feet were getting heavy, he said. “I was a little worried, just because there was a lot there to lose,” Velarde said. But Velarde was confident he could get the take-
down. And he did, ending the tie with a takedown that scored him the two points he needed to win. Prior to the championship, Velarde defeated Colville’s Ian Cox (6-3), Sumner’s Jeremy Jackson (16-1), and Orting’s Mike Moniz (6-1). The win for Velarde marks the end of his high school wrestling career — and the beginning of his college career. He will attend, and wrestle for, Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Va. His only goal right now is to improve his wrestling.

the Department of Ecology’s Voluntary Cleanup Program 11 years ago, meaning cleanup of the mill site would be cooperative, not forced. Jon Rose, president of Olympic Property Group, Pope’s real estate arm, said Pope has spent $10 million on upland and mill site cleanup since then.
In 2011, Nord requested and received a request for funds for land acquisition — enough to buy the 564acre shoreline block, to be owned by the county; five acres of mill site for a marine science center, to be operated by Western Washington University; and another eight acres of
mill site, to be owned by the Department of Natural Resources. Remaining funds would be used to close a wastewater outfall that is contaminating a geoduck bed. But that acquisition was tied to the cleanup and restoration agreement. “I wanted to protect the bay and shoreline for gen-

erations, and the best way to do that was to buy land,” Nord said. In the agreement, also known as an NRD, Pope Resources agreed to extend utilities to the marine science center, at a cost of approximately $250,000; commit $600,000 in start-up funds to the center; and give $175,000 to Kitsap County to assist in the cost of stewardship for the shoreline block. In addition, according to Rose, Pope Resources is donating approximately 25 acres and 1.1 miles of tidelands to the state. Its cleanup responsibility includes removal of 1,800 pilings and all overwater structures, including those two docks; removal of wood waste from the bay floor; and the planting of riparian buffers. “In October, Pope said ‘We agree with the agreement and we have a NRD settlement,’” Nord said. “In late fall/early winter, they said, ‘Hey, we want to [remove] these docks from the agreement.’ I said, no, you can’t do that. We’re not going to leave an island of contamination after we clean up the sea. They want to use these docks as leverage for an unrelated activity. That issue is their responsibility. Pope is the one that is drawing this out for an unrelated issue.” The new dock is part of Pope Resources’ master plan for the redevelopment in the Port Gamble township. The master plan was submitted to the county in January. Rose said Pope Resources agreed “on the big pieces,” but not on all of the details. “We agreed to take out all creosote[d] pilings. We didn’t agree if we would lose legal access to the water,” he said. In a letter he wrote to conservation advocates, Rose said he wants to remove the old docks after he applies for a new dock. He said the removal of the old docks will mitigate, or offset, any environmental impacts a new dock would pose. But if the old docks are removed now, he won’t have anything to offer for mitigation, he said. “[W]henever a new dock is built, local, state and federal agencies all require that the applicant show there is ‘no net loss of habitat,’” Rose wrote. “In order to do so, we must be able to remove the old docks after the date of application … [R]emoval of the docks in the nearby vicinity of the new dock gives us our best hope of ever getting an

approval.” Nord said the docks have to be removed because they have creosoted pilings and there are “massive amounts of wood waste under those structures.” After the cleanup, “Pope has the ability to work with the county to rebuild those docks,” Nord said. “We’re not taking away any wateraccess rights from Pope.” Of the money for land and shoreline acquisition that would be lost, Nord said, “We were the only game in town. We had a whole bunch of money to buy land and they’re putting that in jeopardy.” The marine science center would include an educational component about the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe; the marine science and cultural center was negotiated by Ecology. “We certainly have been in discussion with Ecology about an education center at the mill site,” said Port Gamble S’Klallam Chairman Jeromy Sullivan, whose people originally lived at what is now the Port Gamble township before the arrival of Pope & Talbot. “We’ve talked about a presence in Port Gamble that is lacking right now. We certainly would support something like that.” As of Feb. 20, it was still not too late to save the NRD and the funding. “We had an agreement,” Nord said. “That agreement was for cleanup and land acquisition. All we have ever wanted to do was honor that agreement. If Pope came to us and said, ‘We misunderstood, mea culpa,’ the NRD would still be in effect. “Once we issue that enforcement order, it’s a different ballgame.”

Townsend
Continued from page A1 University, and is a graduate of the FBI National Academy. Townsend emerged Feb. 5 as a surprise candidate for Poulsbo police chief; he had served on a panel that interviewed other contenders for the job. Those candidates met the public in an open house Jan. 30 at City Hall. On Feb. 5, Erickson issued a press release announcing that Townsend was now a candidate and that an open house would be scheduled for the next day in City Hall so residents could meet him. On Feb. 7, she admitted she was leaning toward Townsend and hoped to make a decision by the weekend. She had to hold off on making an announcement until completion of background checks, which she said took longer than she thought. Townsend, who lives near Bangor, said that while participating as a panelist “I was really impressed with City Hall and how it operates. There was an opportunity there and I decided to give it a try. It would be a new challenge for me.” He said in an interview at the time, “I had a conversation with the mayor and she

asked if I’d be interested in [applying]. It was a mutual thing. Both of us saw there was some interest. I was highly impressed with what I saw, the way the council and mayor and department heads interacted. It was refreshing.” City Clerk Jill Boltz said Townsend applied for the job through The Prothman Company, the recruitment firm retained by the city, and underwent the same scrutiny as the other candidates. “It’s a very thorough process … We are definitely doing our due diligence,” she said in an earlier interview. At the time she announced Townsend’s candidacy, Erickson talked of the advantages to hiring him. “It would be a seamless transition,” she said. “He knows a lot of things about our community, he lives in Bangor, six or seven minutes from Poulsbo. He’s really a remarkable man and a great police chief.” The other candidates considered for chief: Robert Griffiths, former police chief of Cordova, Alaska; Stephen MacKinnon, former police chief of Santa Paula, Calif.; Stephen Mauer, a lieutenant with the Lakewood Police Department; Julius “Phil” Schenck, acting police chief of Sunnyside; and

to people very well. As a law enforcement officer, that’s a critical piece that’s often overlooked.” After Townsend’s candidacy was announced, Port Orchard Mayor Tim Matthes issued a statement about his police chief’s interest in leaving for Poulsbo. “Chief Alan Townsend is well respected in our community. I have had a great working relationship these past 12 months with him,” Matthes said. “I am very impressed with his professionalism and dedication to our police department. I am not surprised that he is on the short list of qualified candidates for Poulsbo police chief. If he is selected and
Page A11
accepts that position, he will be close to his home and family. There is no doubt he will be hard for Port Orchard to replace. ” In a post on the North Kitsap Herald’s Facebook page, former Port Orchard mayor Lary Coppola called Townsend a consummate professional, a terrific administrator, and a by-thebook lawman who was wellliked and highly respected both in the community, and more importantly, by his troops and his peers.” “When given the tools he asked for, and administrative interference from above was eliminated, crime in Port Orchard went down 60 percent and, more importantly, violent crime was reduced by 45 percent.
Not many police departments can say that — and Al Townsend’s leadership was the main reason it happened. “Mayor Erickson should be commended for taking the out-of-the-box initiative to recruit Chief Townsend … [S]he should be applauded for having the courage to go after the absolute best lawman available, who will prove to be an asset to Poulsbo, while Port Orchard chases off yet one more highly qualified administrator.” Boltz said she worked with Townsend in Port Orchard when she was interim deputy clerk there. “He’s well rounded, well educated, and very easy to work with.”

The incident occurred at Liberty Bay Assisted Living on Viking Avenue, where the alleged victim and suspect work, on Feb. 16.

Closure
The selected school will be closed beginning in the 2013-14 school year. A special meeting at 6 p.m., Feb. 27 in the Poulsbo Middle School Gymnasium, 2003, NE Hostmark St., will give the public one last opportunity to comment on the school closure. The decision to close a school follows a continued decrease in student enrollment in the district. The district began the 2012-13 year with 5,947.14 fulltime equivalent students. Administration expected 5,979 students for 201213. Student enrollment could drop by more than 80 students for the 201314 school year. The district receives more than $6,000 per student from the state, and more from federal and other sources. Third-grade teacher Nancy Meyer told the board Wolfle is expected to increase enrollment by up to 100 students within a few years. “It would not make sense to close Wolfle due to enrollment projections,” she said. The three schools on the closure list each have three
empty classrooms. The district has the open student capacity to close a school. Closing a school is not the only step the district will take to save money, but it is a “big piece of the pie,” Page said in a previous interview. Having cut about $2.8 million from the 2012-13 budget, “we need to be fiscally sound in what we do on the long haul,” Page said. Public speakers during the hearing also spoke of Wolfle’s track record of having a high number of students from low-income housing, with continuing improvement in test scores. Wolfle’s enrollment as of October 2012 was 319 students, according to district documents. The number of students on free- or reduced-meals in May 2012 was 53 percent. Richard Osborne, a volunteer at Wolfle, previously taught in Detroit. He said schools there with a high percentage of low-income students would almost guarantee a dropout rate of at least 40 percent. Wolfle had an unexcused
absence rate of .2 percent in 2011-12. “You have an exceptional school outperforming,”
Osborne said of expectations. “I expect this board … to make a rational decision base on visible criteria
— why they did what they did.”
Continued from page A1 and Wolfle have built a bond … and shared experiences for multiple generations,” Sullivan said. If Wolfle were to close, Sullivan said it could be more difficult for the Tribe to work as closely with another school. The other schools on the closure list are Breidablik and Gordon. Depending on which school the board decides to close, attendance boundaries will change. Superintendent Patty Page outlined where the majority of students would most likely attend with the three different school closure outcomes. If Breidablik closes, students would be transferred to Vinland or Wolfle — and maybe a few to Poulsbo. If Wolfle closes, most students would go to Breidablik and Gordon. If Gordon closes, students would attend Wolfle or Suquamish. The school board will make a decision on school closure Feb. 28 during the regular board meeting.

They won’t try that again anytime soon Proponents say future attempts to incorporate Silverdale are years off By LESLIE KELLY
Central Kitsap Reporter
SILVERDALE — Randy Biegenwald predicted it will be years before another attempt will be made at incorporating Silverdale. “It will be a long time,” said Biegenwald, who chaired the Silverdale cityhood campaign. “Especially with the heavy lopsided vote we had this time.” Voters overwhelmingly rejected a measure to make Silverdale a city Feb. 12. Of 9,696 registered voters within the proposed city boundaries, unofficial election results showed 4,295 ballots were cast — 3,026 opposed, 1,269 in favor. Biegenwald attributed the loss to “not getting the message out.” “As recently as [Election Day], I was talking to people who still didn’t understand the issues,” he said. “There was a disconnect between what we were saying and

But those opposed to incorporation said the organizers of the effort, Citizens United for Silverdale, failed to get public opinion from the start. “Those wanting to incorporate didn’t get the opinions of residents,” said Joyce Merkel, who led the “No” campaign. “They just listened to the (Silverdale) Chamber of Commerce and went forward with this thing. Nobody wants
more tax money. “They assumed that incorporating and being a city would mean higher taxes,” he said. “They were worried about the economy. And even after hearing from other places where incorporation happened, they still didn’t understand. That was their assumption and it’s just not correct.” Kathleen Knuckey, executive director of the Silverdale Chamber of Commerce, said the chamber did not endorse incorporation because it did not have time to poll all its members.

this. This is the fourth time they’ve tried this and at $35,000 a pop it’s a big waste of taxpayers’ money.” Merkel referred to the cost of the mail-in election, estimated by county election officials to be $35,000. That cost will be borne by the county. “People didn’t want more taxes,” said Ed Berg, who also opposed the measure. He has been a resident of the Silverdale area for 64 years. “And no matter what anybody says, it would be inevitable. Becoming a city would cost us more.” Sam Foster, a retired shipyard planner, said he was glad to see the measure defeated. “I’m happy voters could see through the guise that [supporters of incorporation] were putting out there,” Foster said. “They were trying to pull the wool over our eyes.” He said the measure failed because proponents “didn’t have an agenda that appealed to people.” “They had no direction,” he said. “They didn’t get their points across very well.” Incorporation has been a hot issue in Silverdale for the last few decades. Beginning in the mid 1980s, efforts surfaced to make the Silverdale area its own city. In November 1999, an incorporation measure failed by five votes. In a revote the following February, the measure lost by a wider margin: 2,574 opposed, 1,788 in favor. During the latest campaign, opponents and proponents argued whether Silverdale needed to be a city for the sake of getting better services. Proponents said incorporation would mean local

control of tax dollars generated in Silverdale, and local control of planning, zoning and other issues related to quality of community life. Opponents said services provided by the county were quality services and that if Silverdale became a city, the loss of sales tax revenue to the county would be so great that services in the remaining unincorporated areas would be negatively impacted. They also said that the proposed city boundaries included areas that are rural in nature and should remain in the county. Even though she does not live within the proposed city boundaries, Karen Best campaigned against incorporation. “I was concerned about how this would affect people who live in the county,” she said. “You can’t take that much (sales) tax revenue away and not feel an impact.

Cityhood would have come with benefits, and costs Silverdale would have taken responsibility for millions in infrastructure improvements SILVERDALE — If incorporated, Silverdale would have been Kitsap County’s third-largest city, with approximately 19,140 residents. Bremerton is the largest city, with 39,051 residents; Bainbridge is the second-largest, 23,025. Here’s how Silverdale’s incorporation would have
impacted the county, according to a study by the County Commissioners office. n Incorporation would have reduced the amount of retail sales tax received by Kitsap County by more than $7 million, or roughly 8.7 percent of the General Fund.
n Incorporation would have reduced the amount of road tax revenues received by Kitsap County by up to $3.5 million, or 13 percent of the Road Fund. n Incorporation would have reduced the amount of stormwater fees received by Kitsap County by $658,000, or 8 percent of the funds used to maintain and build stormwater facilities countywide. Those impacts would have been offset by the new

just didn’t vote.” Biegenwald said Citizens United for Silverdale will cease to exist for now and he doesn’t plan another campaign anytime soon. By state law, there must be a three-year waiting period between efforts if the measure receives less than 40 percent in favor of incorporation. Merkel said if proponents of incorporation try again, she would advise them to talk to people first.
“Hold meetings and hear people out,” she said. “Spend time getting a feel for what people really want. Don’t just tell us what you want. People don’t react well to ‘top down’ measures. They want to be a part of the planning and have a voice.” Incorporation proponent Marcus Hoffman said he has worked over the years on five successful statewide initiatives and that successful campaigns require

city taking responsibility for, or contracting with the county for, improvements to parks, roads, sewer and stormwater systems. Within the proposed city boundaries are 241,000 feet of stormwater pipe, 3,200 feet of swales, 2,376 catch basins, 13 retention facilities, and 41 detention facilities. All of this infrastructure requires annual monitoring and maintenance. Kitsap County has projected the need for seven
sewer conveyance projects in Silverdale, including pipeline and pump station upgrades along Anderson Hill Road, Silverdale Way and Bayshore Drive. The estimated cost of these projects is just over $21.1 million. Kitsap County has projected the need for four stormwater projects in Silverdale, including stormwater detention and water quality improvements near Ridgetop Boulevard,
Strawberry Creek and Silverdale Way at a cost of $3.45 million. Kitsap County has projected the need for 11 major road improvement projects in Silverdale, including road widening, bridge replacement and signal improvements on Bucklin Hill Road, Ridgetop Boulevard, Silverdale Way, Anderson Hill Road and Myhre Road at a cost of more than $33.7 million.
enough time to get the message out in order for it to resonate with voters. “It’s a governance issue and it’s hard to explain,” he said of incorporation. “It’s not a soundbite. When you have to explain a complex issue and answer a lot of questions, that takes a year, not 30 days. If you pres-
ent people with the information, they’ll make good decisions. We just didn’t present people with good information. If people don’t know, they’ll vote ‘No.’ ” At an Election Day gathering of incorporation supporters, John Taylor was surprised the measure went down.
“I thought we were gonna win it,” he said. “I really did. It’s what’s best for the community.” Rob MacDermid, a member of Citizens United for Silverdale, added, “I’m not particularly surprised that it lost, but I am surprised by the margin.”

Residents worried about self-help homes They say rentals in Housing Kitsap neighborhood may impact area values By MEGAN STEPHENSON
mstephenson@northkitsapherald.com
POULSBO — Residents of Chateau Ridge and Snowberry Bungalows are left without much remedy to their concerns about the newest self-help housing development by Housing Kitsap. The 20-lot subdivision, called Talon Glen, was given final plat approval by the Poulsbo City Council and is located right in between Chateau Ridge and Snowberry Bungalows on Caldart Avenue. Homeowners of the two neighborhoods gathered at the City Council meeting Wednesday, when the council approved Talon Glen’s final plat application. Talon Glen was originally applied for in 2006 and approved by the Kitsap County Hearing Examiner in 2007 — all public hearing and input processes stopped then. However, the neighborhoods of Chateau Ridge and Snowberry Bungalows had not been developed yet, and homeowners there are concerned about the impact the new neighborhood will have on their neighborhood and home values.
The neighbors of Talon Glen said their main concern was the possibility of rentals. “This is not about the process, this is about the right fit, and I do not believe that this is the right fit,” said James Lee, a Snowberry homeowner. Other residents, citing their own previous experience in other neighborhoods, implied that low-income housing neighborhoods don’t adhere to neighborhood standards, and certain activity will devalue their homes. Jack Archer, who lives in Chateau Ridge, said he thinks the Housing Kitsap program is “fantastic,” and he may volunteer his time helping these families build their homes. But he was concerned about what happens to the area’s value if the houses become rentals or if mortgages default. “All of us are afraid of the unknown,” Archer said. “I’d be interested to see what percentage of these self-help houses become rentals.” Archer said he was also troubled by the location. “As soon as the [plat] was approved, it cost me $25,000, because that’s what I paid for my view. They didn’t,” Archer said. Mayor Becky Erickson and Housing Kitsap staff said they are hearing the concerns and are willing
Housing Kitsap recently completed a self-help housing neighborhood in Silverdale called Caitlin Heights. Similar style homes are set to be built at Caldart Avenue and Nutkana Way in Poulsbo. Julie Graves / Housing Kitsap to tailor the neighborhood’s Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, or CC&Rs, to reflect the standards of the surrounding neighborhood. Erickson is chairwoman of the Housing Kitsap board. “I understand their worry. We’ll figure out ways we might mitigate this,” Erickson said. “We’ll make sure we get some reassurance to these people.” Julie Graves, director of asset management for Housing Kitsap, said she and the staff are discussing amending the CC&Rs to address some of the neighbors’ concerns. One idea is to allow only 15 percent of Talon Glen homeowners to rent
out their home if needed. Another idea Graves presented was to allow only the original owner/builder to rent out their home, but not the next buyers if they sell. “The reality is, we know how much these owner/ builders love their homes,” Graves said; it’s uncommon for an owner/builder to turn around and sell their home. Housing Kitsap Executive Director Tony Caldwell said the USDA has no guidelines that restrict a homeowner/ builder’s ability to sell or rent the home if and when they choose. “[Builder/owners] certainly have an attachment to what they’re doing,”

Caldwell said. He said he’s never come across this level of concern from a neighboring community, but understands “the people who already live there have a vested interest in seeing their neighborhood [remain] stable.” Housing Kitsap bought the development between six and nine months ago, Caldwell said, after the plat languished for many years. “When you move in, you have no idea the status of the other homes around you. This is no different than every other [development] situation,” Caldwell said. Housing Kitsap, founded in 1972, is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s rural development program. “During that time, we have helped over 1,300 families achieve their dream of homeownership through this self-help program,” Graves said. She and Dean Nail, construction manager, addressed the council and the gathered neighbors at Wednesday’s meeting. The USDA provides funding and technical assistance to the housing authority, as well as the mortgages. Those who qualify must have an income that is 80 percent of the area's median income; in Kitsap County, that is $60,000 a year for a family of four. The families that qualify put in 65 percent of the labor, Nail said — 30 hours a week for about a year. The Talon Glen development has 12 families signed up so far — small business owners, folks that work
in healthcare and at the Clearwater Casino. “Quite honestly, many of them are single mothers looking to provide a safe home for their families,” Nail said. The development will consist of 20 single-family homes. Infrastructure — power and sewer lines — have been completed, according to the city’s engineering department. Construction will be split into two groups of 10, and those groups of owner/ builders will work on their homes together and move in at the same time. The city does not require design review for standard subdivision plats, a concern for homeowners in Chateau Ridge and Snowberry Bungalows as their neighborhoods have strict design standards. However, Caldwell said Housing Kitsap was awarded Green Builder of the Year in the Pacific Northwest from Energy Star in 2011, and in general low-income housing developments has improved its minimum design standards. “I know there are concerns but it is also a bit of an inspiration,” Councilwoman Linda Berry-Maraist said. Housing Kitsap is “giving people a chance at homeownership, and most are long-term members of our community that might not otherwise afford it. “And I think it’s great the housing authority has upgraded some of their design standards,” she said, adding that earlier standards called for homes to be “austere and simple.” Now, Housing Kitsap is taking steps to make its houses “nicer on the outside, both for the neighbors and the community.”

INDIANOLA — The Port of Indianola may have to raise property taxes to pay for improvements to the Indianola dock, depending on the outcome of an
assessment of the dock. The assessment, being done by an engineering firm, is about 75 percent complete, Port Commissioner Judith Frank said Wednesday. Some of the dock’s pil-

ings, for example, are close to 100 years old, Frank said. Pilings have been repaired or replaced as needed. There are other pilings that still need attention. There is no present risk to people on or around the dock. However, there is concern over how well the aging pilings will hold up against severe storms, she said.
Almost all of the dock’s pilings are creosoted as well. There are two metal pilings holding the swim float in place. New pilings will be non-creosoted, Frank said. The port has options to pay for piling replacement, which include raising taxes and finding grants. Property levies, Frank said, will be the first option considered. “If we’re going to keep
this wonderful icon … we’re going to have to have the funding for it,” Frank said. The 775-foot dock was built when the Mosquito Fleet supplied the majority of transportation on Puget Sound in the first half of the 20th century. It is a local landmark and juts hundreds of feet out over the water. The Port of Indianola
collects the fourth-lowest amount of taxes in Kitsap County, behind ports of Eglon, Tracyton and Keyport. The port will collect $42,103 in taxes in 2013. The Port of Bremerton will collect $3,410,403 in 2013, the most out of Kitsap’s ports. The Port of Indianola See dock, Page A22

collects 15 cents for every $1,000 of assessed property value. If property taxes are raised, the lowest-increment increase could be to 20 cents per $1,000. The commissioners are considering increasing the levy enough to get about $14,000 more in property taxes, Frank said. An assessment of the dock has not been done in years, Frank said; port commissioners do not remember the last time one was completed, she said. The assessment will show what work needs to be done to the dock and the priority of that work. Port commissioners will focus their energy on the assessment, permitting and funding this year. For now, however, commissioners are playing a waiting game. The engineering assessment will not be done until the tide is far enough out to finish, which will be a few months out. The dock assessment is part of the port’s Comprehensive Scheme’s Capital Improvement Plan. The scheme was approved Feb. 8. The scheme outlines other capital improvement projects and port goals. Included in the capital projects are enhancing current and building new boat and kayak storage, upgrading electrical utilities to the dock and adding lighting at the end, and helping to pro-

INDIANOLA — The 3:40 p.m. weekday departure of the No. 91 Kingston/ Bainbridge bus from the Bainbridge Island Ferry will no longer serve Indianola, effective March 3. According to a notice issued by Kitsap Transit: “The bus is unable to serve Suquamish, Indianola and Kingston and still return to the ferry in time to pick up riders from the next arrival. Because Indianola has the fewest riders, it will be eliminated from this trip.” The bus will continue to stop on Miller Bay Road near Indianola Road, according to Kitsap Transit. Or riders can catch the bus at the Suquamish or George’s Corner Park & Ride lots. Go to www.kitsaptransit. com/bus91eff3-3-13.html to view the revised schedule.

PFD’s bond re-fi will save $56,000
POULSBO — Kitsap County Fire District No. 18 took advantage of historically low interest rates in the municipal bond market and refinanced its 2002 General Obligation Bonds. The refinancing will reduce debt repayment costs by approximately $50,000 in 2013 and another $6,000 thereafter, district spokeswoman Jody Matson reported. These original bond proceeds were used to finance the construction of a fire station and training facility. Working with Martin Nelson and Company, the district — commonly known as the Poulsbo Fire Department — was able to replace the 4.9 percent average interest rate currently paid on its outstanding 2002 debt with a new rate of 1.78 percent. The district bonded for $2 million in 2002 to build Station 77 (1305 NW Pioneer Hill Road, Poulsbo) and the training tower there, Administrative Services Manager Lise Alkire said. The district owes $865,000. The loan will be paid off in June 2017, Alkire said. In addition to the low interest rate, the district achieved its refinance without the use of a credit rating from Standard and Poor’s. The district’s debt is currently rated “A+” by S&P, but the department was able to forego the cost of rating the new replacement debt and still achieve “A+”level interest rates. “We know our residents are concerned about the economy and we felt these cost-reduction efforts were important,” Fire Chief Jeff Griffin said. “The district chose to enter the bond market now so that taxpayer savings could be achieved while interest rates are still at generational lows.” The refinancing opportunity surfaced in January after the 2002 bonds became callable. “We felt that completing the project now before the savings eroded with any principal paid in future periods, would be very timely and provide the community the highest possible savings,” Alkire said.

From left, “The Strong People: A History of the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe,” is the product of more than four decades of interviews and five years of curating. “Necromancing the Stone” is Lish McBride’s follow-up to her award-winning debut novel, “Hold Me Closer, Necromancer.” Marissa Meyer’s latest young adult novel is “Scarlet.” Courtesy of the authors
collaboration between the Kitsap Regional Library system and area independent bookstores, is hosting presentations by three authors of books for young readers. Tacoma’s best-selling Marissa Meyer and Seattle’s Lish McBride will read from their most recent books March 5, 6:30 p.m., at the Poulsbo library, 700 NE Lincoln Road, Poulsbo. Meyer’s latest, “Scarlet,” is the sequel to her blockbuster “Cinder” and the second in her Lunar Chronicle series. Both books use fairy tales — Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood — as starting points for terrific reads set in a dystopian future. In “Scarlet,” title character Scarlet Benoit and Wolf, a street fighter who may have information about her missing grandmother, join forces with the cyborg Cinder as they try to stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen Levana.
Publisher’s Weekly writes: “Returning fans of Meyer’s ‘Cinder’ will gladly sink their teeth into this ambitious, wholly satisfying sequel.” McBride’s “Necromancing the Stone” is a followup to her award-winning debut novel “Hold Me Closer, Necromancer.” With witty dialogue and a wicked sense of humor, McBride’s stories have been described as Mad magazine meets “Twilight.” Kirkus Reviews writes: “A slacker wrangles zombies, werewolves, gnomes and gods in this amiable second entry in a humorhorror mash-up series ... Sam’s marvelously witty, self-deprecating narration carries readers along effortlessly to the very end.” This event is free and open to the public. Readers who buy copies of either books at Liberty Bay Books in Poulsbo and Eagle Harbor Book Company on Bainbridge Island will be seated in the reserved section.

March 12, 6:30 p.m. at the Bainbridge Cinemas at the Pavilion, 403 Madison Ave. N, Bainbridge Island. Hunter is actually four writers who chose a single pseudonym to avoid confusing readers of the series for middle-readers (ages 8-12). Hunter began this popular series in 2003 and has produced five series, six “super editions,” field guides, and a manga series. The most recent novel in the series is “Warrior: Dawn of the Clans: The Sun Trail.” This event is free and open to the public. Because seating is limited, customers who receive tickets at Eagle Harbor Book Company or Liberty Bay Books will be seated first. Tickets will be issued to customers who buy “The Sun Trail” from either book store. Books (and tickets) will be available at the stores or on their websites. Customers can pre-order the book, which is due out March 5. This will be Hunter’s only regional appearance. It’s not known which “Hunter” will attend.

The Millers cropped their Black Rock Creek vineyard to 5 tons per acre for a wine that opens with aromas of lemon zest, Asian pear, starfruit, white pepper and river rock. The approach to the palate is dry yet fruitful with pear, Honeycrisp apple and more starfruit. n Chateau Ste. Michelle 2011 Sauvignon Blanc, Columbia Valley, $13: Chateau Ste.

Charles Smith of Walla Walla created House Wine less than a decade ago, and it has become one of the region’s remarkable success stories. The operation is now owned by Precept Wine, which is able to take the concept to new levels. It opens with exotic and perfumy aromas of lime juice, melon, orange and gooseberry, followed by bright, clean flavors of lemon zest, honeydew, grapefruit and slate, all backed with quenching tartness. n Waterbrook 2011 Pinot Gris, Columbia Valley, $12: This brisk and steely Pinot Gris carries aromas of lemongrass, Golden Delicious apple, honeysuckle and fresh-cut celery. Ripe apple and fresh-squeezed lemon lead the flavors, backed by celery leaf and a scrape of flint. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman run Great Northwest Wine, a news and information website.

s Northwest wineries begin bottling some of their 2012 white wines, there still are plenty of 2011s left on store and winery shelves that can be found at good prices. This week, we take a look at white wines priced $15 and under that we have tasted recently. All but one of the six wines reviewed here are made by the Northwest’s two largest wine producers: Ste. Michelle Wine Estates in Woodinville, Wash., and Precept Wine in Seattle. Both make wine in such large amounts that they are able to take advantage of economies of scale. While some white wines will age, most made these days are meant to be consumed quickly. A few varieties, especially Riesling and Semillon, can be stored for years and gain fascinating complexities. However, there is little need to consider that with nearly every white wine produced. In fact, if you have any white wines older than 2009, it’s time to drink them. Today, we look at two varieties: Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc. Both tend to be bright, crisp wines that pair beautifully with a wide range of cuisines, including seafood, chicken, curries, Mexican

Frannie Garcia of Kingston is one of 16 local cooks conributing to ‘Just A Pinch’ KINGSTON — Frannie Garcia’s Almond Pastry recipe has been awarded a blue ribbon from Just A Pinch Recipes, a recipe and coupon social network for home cooks at www. justapinch.com. Garcia’s Almond Pastry was named a blue ribbon winner by Just A Pinch Food Editor Janet Tharpe. To land the award, Garcia served up a fullflavored dish that Tharpe described as tasty and easy to prepare. “I’ve always told people that this is an old family recipe that I got from my aunt that I have been making for decades. It is truly loved by everyone and often requested for family gatherings,” Garcia said in an announcement of the award. “The funny thing is that I remember getting it from my aunt, but when I made it for her, she told me it’s nothing like her recipe. She did love it, though.” Garcia is one of 16 Kingston residents sharing recipes with the social network, which in just two years has become the largest database of user-posted recipes. Just A Pinch Recipes is based in Franklin, Tenn. On the site, users can post their own “family tested and approved” recipes and try recipes
