One killed, five injured in crash By JESSIE STENSLAND

jstensland@whidbeynewsgroup.com

An Oak Harbor man is dead, five people were injured and a woman is in jail following a Saturday afternoon collision on North Whidbey, according to the Washington State Patrol. The State Patrol reports that Oak Harbor

resident Cindy L. Wilson, 57, was driving a 2009 Jeep Wrangler SUV west on Frostad Road and failed to yield at the stop sign at the intersection with the highway. Wilson’s Jeep collided with a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV driven by Reed Hall, 53, of Oak Harbor, that was headed south on the highway.

Steven M. Parson, 50, of Oak Harbor was a back-seat passenger in Wilson’s Jeep Wrangler and was ejected from the vehicle. He was pronounced dead at the scene, according to a State Patrol spokesperson. Wilson was injured and transported to Island Hospital in Anacortes. She was SEE CRASH, A2

The largest civilian employer on Whidbey Island builds and fixes giant vessels of steel or aluminum, but the company somehow manages to keep a relatively low profile. Yet officials at the boat-building company are hoping to garner more attention, especially from local job seekers, as a rising tide of work is about to converge on the boatyard. The company currently has about 220 employees and an additional 10 people work there through a labor contractor. Officials are planning on hiring as many as 80 more people as projects gear up. The company has contracts that will keep it busy through 2021. About 85 percent of the company’s employees live on island, and it’s not uncommon

County to disperse human biosolids on its own property By JESSIE STENSLAND

jstensland@whidbeynewsgroup.com

For decades, Island County has been treating the watery brown stuff that’s pumped out of thousands of septic systems in incorporated areas and then partnering with farmers to spray it onto fields.

But the stigma attached to fertilizing with human-made biosolids has caused the county to look at other options for disposal. One option is for the county to use its own property. As a result, the county is in the process of purchasing a field on • • • • • • • • • •

have been reduced to 95-99 percent. Plants with edible parts that do not make contact with the soil when harvested, such as wheat, barley, and alfalfa, can be harvested 30 days after the last biosolids application, according to the state. A Central Whidbey farmer

craft,” Gibbon said. Goebel graduated from Texas Tech University with an elementary education degree and specialty in reading. In Oak Harbor, she’s taught third, fourth and sixth grade. During her time with the district, she also coached teachers on how to teach reading before she went to her position at Broadview. She understands why some children struggle to learn to read, she said. “Our language is crazy,” Goebel said. Typical rules for sounding out words only work for about half the words people see, she

Learning the others comes from repetition. “Every child’s brain works dif ferently,” Goebel said. “You have to have a bag of tricks.” She recalled a girl she worked with from second through fourth grade that didn’t know how to spell her name. After fourth grade, Goebel and another teacher shared that the student had passed her test. “She was screaming and jumping up and down,” Goebel said with a smile. “She had never passed anything.” Sometimes, everything Goebel could do wasn’t necessarily enough. She said she’d get attached to students and learn their stories. Some didn’t have good home lives or had other issues outside the classroom. She learned to

HIRING

CONTINUED FROM A1 for generations of families to work in the yard. The boat builder’s apprenticeship program will be an important part of filling jobs, according to Kevin Corrigan, human resources director. He said apprentices earn a “living wage” as they get on-the-job training, which is supplemented by off-theclock classes. If everything works out, they became certified as journeymen — and earn a very nice living — in three years. The company invested in virtual reality training, including a welding apparatus that incorporates real welding with virtual welding. “We’re building the next generation of boat builders,” Corrigan said. Pete Sinclair, director of planning, is very busy these days dealing with the influx and diversity of work, which includes a combination of custom boat building and the refurbishment of older vessels, as well as the unique aspects of steel and aluminum work. “The industry tends to be cyclic,” he explained, “but right now we’re seeing an uptick nearly across the board.” Nichols Brothers has a contract with Foss to build four new class ASD 90 tug boats, with an option for an additional six. The 100foot tugs were designed by Jensen Maritime Consultants of Seattle. The delivery of the first four vessels will begin in the winter of 2020. An upside-down, aluminum skeleton at the boatyard is the first of two 140foot high-speed passenger

focus on the support and care she could provide while the students were with her. “You always have a kid you’re most worried about,” she said. “… You have a tear in your eye when they leave for summer.” Although she technically retired from the school district, her work there isn’t done. In November, Goebel is running unopposed for the school board. She’s also gearing up to work as a consultant to help other schools improve their literacy education. A leisurely retirement was never really in the cards for Goebel. “I’m passionate about doing things,” she said. “I’m always willing to learn new things.” ferries the company is building for Kitsap Transit. The catamarans will someday move passengers at a maximum speed of 36 knots. Nichols Brothers is continuing its work with the Golden Gate Bridge Highway and Transportation District, which has overseen dramatic ferr y ridership growth in the San Francisco Bay area. The Sonoma, built in 1976, will soon be en route to Whidbey Island to be completely refurbished. Jeff Giese, director of manufacturing, said an entirely new boat could have been built for the amount of money it will take to strip and rebuild the Sonoma, a foot ferry with a retro style. “There’s something about the styling, the feel of the boat that they like,” he said. In addition, the boatyard continues to see a steady stream of service and repair jobs, including work for the Navy. A large barge in the water had recently stopped by for “a shave and a haircut,” Corrigan said. The company made changes to the facility this year. Concrete was poured over a large area to allow for more work. A green sound wall was completed to soften the impact of the work on neighbors. And as usual, the boat builders will supply the pyrotechnical barge for Freeland’s famous Celebrate America fireworks show on July 3. • Those interested in working for Nichols Brothers can see job postings and information about the apprenticeship program at the company’s website, www.nicholsboats.com

significantly more expensive, according to county Solid Waste Manager Joantha Guthrie. The county has been going through a SEPA process to find an appropriate field for biosolids. Residents in the Scenic Heights area became alarmed to see a notice about biosolids spreading in their neighborhood, but Guthrie said the field is not being considered.

Finding the right place can be tricky and can take awhile; the state Department of Ecology oversees the permitting and monitoring. When it comes to finding the right piece of land, Guthrie said, the county has to consider soil type, surface water, wetlands and other issues. “It has to be an actively farmed or grazed piece of property,” she said. The Zylstra Road property will help the situation, but it’s not big enough to take the entire 2 million gallons of biosolids that come out of the county’s treatment plant each year.

Apparent effort to silence opposition ‘anti-Amarican’ Editor, To whomever has been stealing the antiGrowler yards signs in Coupeville, your petty thefts are pretty pathetic. Do you really think that by stealing our signs you will silence us? The signs cost us $3 each; you aren’t putting any financial pinch on us. We can afford to keep putting them up, and we will. Mine is already back up. But think about how small and impotent this makes you look. You can delude yourself into thinking that by trying to silence the opposition you are being patriotic and a good Navy supporter. In reality, you are being anti-American. The First Amendment to the Constitution guarantees free speech for all, not just Navy supporters. America was built on the basic premise that ideas should be free to compete and that the best ideas shall prevail. Childishly yanking your neighbors’ yard signs out of the ground doesn’t enhance your position, it weakens it. It shows that you are afraid to debate the Growler noise issue face to face and instead have to slink around in the dark of night to do your mischief. Shameful. Your neighbors on the other side of the issue never went around stealing your proOLF signs. We make our arguments in the light of day. What are you so afraid of? If you love the “Sound of Freedom” so much you should also support the “Signs of Freedom.” Paula Spina Coupeville

on purchase price and inflation increases, my current assessment would be almost the same as one conjured up by a legion of tax assessors on the public payroll. Also, folks wouldn’t ever get sticker shock year to year and be able to predict their future taxes better, and counties would have a more reliable stream of revenue year to year to plan budgets. It is food for thought; and if you like the idea, then contact your legislators and let them know. If not, well you can wait for that surprise in your mail every year. Thomas Kosloske Oak Harbor

State should use taxation Pioneer Way system akin to California’s Downtown merchants will Editor, benefit from LIHI housing On Proposition 13, the California property tax revolt of 1978 — Paul Gann, a conservative legislator in California in the 1970s, put forward an initiative on the ballot called proposition 13. It basically declared “property taxes were to be assessed their 1976 value and restricted annual increases of the tax to an inflation factor, not to exceed 2 percent per year. A reassessment of the property tax can only be made a) when the property ownership changes or b) there is construction done.” Folks in California were tired of the assessment process that was similar to the one currently used in the state of Washington. It was mainly because the tax increases were pricing many older folks out of their homes. The current system in our state requires a legion of tax assessors and appeal processors to be paid by the taxpayer. Under a system that bases taxes on the purchase price of the home plus 2 percent a year maximum for inflation — that would eliminate all these employees and save counties countless thousands. The kicker is that under a system based

Editor, Now that both the city planning staff and the hearing examiner have recommended approval, I encourage the Oak Harbor City Council to step forward and approve the LIHI application for affordable housing on Pioneer Way. It has been encouraging to witness the community’s realization that the LIHI apartments are affordable housing for our local workforce and veterans, not a homeless shelter. I believe that downtown merchants will be the benefactors of the addition of new working residents on Pioneer Way. I also believe property values will increase in the downtown core with the addition of more residents in this district. It has been shown that well-designed affordable housing often leads district reinvestment, and I believe that this project on long-vacant land will attract others who will build market-rate development that our community needs. I ask the men and women on city council

to favorably consider the LIHI application and vote to approve it.

Growlers

George Saul Oak Harbor

Shocked to have to say that artists are not the ‘enemy’ Editor, From 5-6:30 p.m. June 26, there was a meeting of the annual Summer Open Studio Tour of Whidbey Working Artists. The studio and residence are on Burchell Road. When the meeting started, we could all hear the Growlers doing their exercises at the OLF Coupeville. But, as the gathering continued, the planes grew closer and louder. It became overwhelming. The Growler flights went right over us at lower altitudes, as if deliberately menacing and disruptive. We weren’t able to talk with one another at increasingly long intervals. People covered their ears and grimaced. I, too, covered my ears and felt a mixture of horror, confusion and deep sorrow. We wondered, were the pilots enjoying this act of dominance over the local population? This was a shocking display by the Navy, one that seems growing in intensity. The random flight paths and lower altitudes of the Growlers would not reflect an essential part of the actual training exercises. What seems to be unfolding is a clear message that people, communities and livelihoods don’t matter, and that the environmental impacts of this flight activity are blatantly disregarded. This display of military dominance is totally out of balance. It contradicts a responsibility and duty to protect our people and land. We are not the enemy. I am shocked to even write that. I have always considered myself deeply patriotic. However, I now fear for our country when the military seems to be sending a threatening message to its own citizens. Teri Jo Summer Coupeville

CW falls at state tournament Steckman sails to 2nd By JIM WALLER

jwaller@whidbeynewsgroup.com

The stay was short, but they should be back. The Central Whidbey Little League major softball team (ages 10-12) lost its first two games at the state tournament in Poulsbo over the weekend and was eliminated. The Hammerheads fell 13-1 to host North Kitsap Saturday and 13-2 to Northeast Seattle Sunday. “This group will be so fun to watch these next six years, and I have a good feeling they’ll be back at the Little League state tournament a couple more times before they start their high school campaign,” coach Fred

Farris said. “The girls really fought hard and did really have a tough draw, facing two of the top four teams in the tournament. “Nerves definitely showed in their first experience at the state tournament, but they never stopped fighting. Their sportsmanship shined throughout the tournament and I really couldn’t be prouder.” Central Whidbey, unlike the other teams in the tournament, draws its players from one team. The other clubs at state are allstar squads made up of players from multiple-team leagues. The Hammerheads surrendered nine unearned runs and

failed to collect a hit in the loss to North Kitsap. Savina Wells walked twice and stole two bases. Wells led off the second game with a triple and scored on Mia Farris’ ground out. Wells’ rap, however, would be the only hit for the Hammerheads in the game. Chloe Marzocca reached on an error, stole a base and scored on a passed ball. Central Whidbey put the ball in play, striking out only four times, but couldn’t find any holes. “Seattle made some amazing defensive plays that really put a damper on any potential rallies,” coach Farris said.

Put them into a saucepan with the sugar, water and lemon juice, and simmer for about 7 minutes or until the berries are soft and there is a lot of juice. Put in blender and puree. Pour the mixture in a metal bowl and cool the mixture down until at or below room temperature. You can hurry this along by putting ice and water into a bigger bowl and placing the bowl containing the strawberry mixture into that ice water and stirring. Mix the yogurt, cream and strawberry mixture together. Have your ice cream maker ready and pour the mixture in. Churning: Start it up and let the ice cream maker do its work. If yours is a good one, it will go until the mixture is quite firm with little ice crystals. That is what you want – your mixture converted into lots of tiny ice crystals. Then put into another container for finishing off the freezing in your freezer. For some serving ideas, try serving with a fresh strawberry or two on top, or a couple of mint leaves.
