4 - 7 p.m. Port of Everett Blue Heron Room 1205 Craftsman Way Everett, WA 98201 SEA THE FUTURE WITH US! The Port is updating its Strategic Plan, creating a new roadmap for its next decade of service. Join us for an open house to explore and provide feedback on the Draft Strategic Plan that incorporates input received during a nearly two-year stakeholder engagement process. The Draft Strategic Plan: • Reflects the values and character of our community; • Promotes and protects a balanced waterfront (see right); • Considers the needs of thousands of people who make their living through the Port; • Emphasizes an ever-changing economic climate as well as local and international market opportunities; and • Observes the highest levels of environmental stewardship and recreational access.
Put simply, an urban deep-water port is a rare and irreplaceable asset in the United States. Everett is the only city in Snohomish County with an urban deep-water international seaport. With 60% of County jobs tied to trade, particularly in aerospace, and the third largest employer in the state being the U.S. Navy, protecting this deep-water asset from urban gentrification is a must for our region’s ongoing and future success. It is for this reason, the Port has been strategically investing in a balanced waterfront that fosters maritime, trade and national defense interests from the Navy base south, while using the revenues generated from this working waterfront to create recreational opportunities and a vibrant mixed-use and light industrial development from the Navy base north.

But, tip the scale one way or the other, and the complementary concept quickly dissolves. The working waterfront, which includes the Port’s international shipping terminals, the former Kimberly-Clark mill site and Naval Station Everett, is a robust maritime complex that supports 42,000 family-wage jobs and contributes $383 million to state and local taxes. Operations here support national security and the movement of between $21-30 billion in imports and exports annually. The annual average wage earned at the waterfront is $86,000. With the development plans at the Port, opportunities at K-C and support of additional vessels at Naval Station Everett, this area is expected to grow in prominence and importance. While located within the City of Everett, this working waterfront supports the economic and commerce needs of all of Snohomish County. This is the side of the waterfront that generates the revenue enabling the Port to create and maintain an expansive, thriving recreation hub to the north. On the recreational side of the waterfront, the Port provides access and amenities for pleasure boaters at the largest public marina on the West Coast. It provides more than 1,500 acres of public access
including Jetty Island, a 4-mile waterfront trail system, parks, plazas and special events, all situated along a clean shoreline home to diverse wildlife. It also represents the 65-acres of former mill property the Port is redeveloping into Waterfront Place bringing new housing, hospitality, restaurant and retail opportunities to the area. The Port has invested more than $26 million in public access here since 2006. This would not be possible without a successful and supported working waterfront. The unwavering commitment to this vision of a balanced waterfront allows the Port to continue delivering its mission of creating economic opportunities and quality jobs, expanding tax base and supporting an inviting quality of life for District residents, businesses and visitors. Balancing industry and recreation to create a vibrant community where people can live, work, play and thrive Working waterfront provides revenue base to invest in a clean destination waterfront with a diversity of uses

This month’s focus: Women in business By Janice Podsada Herald Writer
This month’s Herald Business Journal shines the spotlight on women in business. Here are some reasons to celebrate: the centuryold Port of Everett welcomes its first female CEO this month. Everett Community College received a $412,000 National Science Foundation grant that aims to lift the number of women in aviation technician programs to new heights. And topping it off, October is National Women’s Small Business Month. Kathy Coffey, executive director of Leadership Snohomish County, has been tracking women in top leadership positions around the county and sees the numbers continue to rise. The nonprofit has been fostering the county’s future leaders since 1998. “In 2019, it is inspiring to see Lisa Lefeber with the Port of Everett, Dr. Daria Willis at Everett CC and Lois Langer Thompson — the executive director for Sno-Isle Libraries take key leadership roles in our region — the trend is exciting to see in our county,” Coffey said. “Our greatest work ahead is to promote equitable hiring practices in

all of our systems and assure that women of color are being considered for new and existing opportunities,” she said. In Washington state, there are an estimated 215,000 women-owned firms, up 4% since last year’s figure of 207,000, according to the State of Women-Owned Businesses Report, commissioned by American Express. Together, the state’s women-owned businesses employ 203,000 workers, not counting
their owners. In Lynnwood, Silver Hernandez, the owner of Angel’s Cleaning Service, is preparing to bump up that total with the addition of employees. At the national level, women of color are leading the business creation charge, the report said. In fact, they account for half of all the women-owned firms in the United States. But there’s a worrisome trend — sinking revenues. The average annual revenue for minorityowned businesses in 2019 was $66,000, down from $68,000 in 2014, the report said. Said Coffey, “Our greatest work ahead is to promote equitable hiring practices in all of our systems and assure that women of color are being considered for new and existing opportunities.” Here’s a thought: Take your daughter, niece or neighbor to Boeing STEM Night, a free family event for students K-12, from 4 to 8 p.m. Oct. 10 at the Boeing Future of Flight, 8415 Paine Field Blvd., in Mukilteo.

Port’s new director looks ahead to ongoing waterfront revival
Incoming Port of Everett CEO Lisa Lefeber meets with attorney Brad Cattle at port headquarters. She will take over as the port’s top officer Oct. 16.
By Janice Podsada Herald Writer
EVERETT — Lisa Lefeber, the Port of Everett’s deputy executive director, likes to describe the port from stem to stern. Her narrative starts at the Mount Baker terminal in Mukilteo, continues north to the seaport and working waterfront, then continues to Waterfront Place near 13th Street and West Marine
View Drive, and the Riverside Business Park on the Snohomish River. After nearly 15 years with the port, it’s a trajectory Lefeber knows well. At every point, there’s something new: new cargo cranes, new lodgings, new restaurant, new Grand Avenue Park pedestrian bridge and new tenants, including Amazon, the online-retailer. Lefeber, who holds the No. 2 position at the port,

is about to assume the top leadership post. This month, she’ll take over for CEO Les Reardanz, who is stepping down to focus on caring for his aging parents and greater military duties. It’s a milestone for the 101-year-old port. When Lefeber takes the helm on Oct. 16 she’ll become its See NEXT PAGE

Lisa Lefebere says she’ll help build “a balanced waterfront” with jobs, Navy operations and recreation. From PREVIOUS PAGE first female CEO. Her promotion was unanimously approved by the port’s threemember commission this summer. She’ll earn an annual salary of $193,000, the same as Reardanz. It’s an honor to lead “in a community that has become home to me,” Lefeber said. “I look forward to continuing in my predecessors’ footsteps of building a balanced waterfront that supports commerce, Navy operations, jobs, recreation and creates a destination on the beautiful Everett waterfront,” she said. The port is a major economic partner, said Mayor Cassie Franklin. “I’m thrilled to know (the port) will continue with strong leadership. Lisa has proven she is a driven, forward thinking and strategic leader,” Franklin said. A former journalist who graduated from Western Washington University in Bellingham, Lefeber began her port career as its spokeswoman in 2005. It was a new position. The port wanted to keep people better informed about a growing list of projects, she said, including the North Marina development and an effort to take possession of the
Mukilteo (fuel) Tank Farm from the Air Force. In 2010, Lefeber earned a master’s degree in public administration from Seattle University. Through the years, she took on roles of increasing responsibility, including a stretch as the port’s acting CEO. In 2018, she served as acting CEO for nine months while Reardanz, a captain in the Navy Reserves, was deployed in Afghanistan. Lefeber, 38, grew up in Auburn. “My dad put up billboards and my mom drove a school bus,” she said. “I spent a ton of time on the water. My aunt worked at Foss (Maritime).” Lefeber credits her hardworking family with her work ethic and fortitude. “My dad used to say I never took ‘no’ for an answer,” she said. Lefeber’s advice to young women and young men is be flexible: “You never know where life is going to take you,” she said. “It’s good to plan and be prepared but don’t be so fixed in your career path that you forget to live.” Lefeber lives in Bothell with her husband Scott Lefeber and their two sons, ages 7 and 9.
Her mentors include John Mohr, the port’s former executive director, Connie Niva, a former Port Commissioner, and Les Reardanz — “three people that really supported me over the years,” she said. The Port of Everett is the third-largest container port in Washington, after the ports of Seattle and Tacoma. By value, the port supports the shipment of between $21 billion and $30 billion in imports and exports each year. The seaport’s revenues drive the development of the recreational waterfront, Lefeber said. For the past decade, the seaport has contributed the lion’s share of revenue — 65 percent — derived from the Port of Everett’s three business segments: shipping, the marina and waterside real estate. It specializes in moving high-value, oversized cargo, including all the oceanshipped parts for the Boeing 747, 767 and 777 production lines, and serves ships from all over the world. A $57 million modernization project at the seaport’s South Terminal dock, underway since 2015, is scheduled to be completed this year, Lefeber said.
Lefeber was the driver behind securing $22 million in state and federal grants and loans for the project, port officials said. Structural improvements will allow the dock to more efficiently handle oversized containers carrying aerospace parts and other heavy cargo. Although the port can accept those components now, the larger ships carrying them often jut out into the waterway. Other renovations will allow ships to plug into shore power and turn off their diesel engines. Next year, two larger cranes with a greater load capacity than
When Lefeber takes the helm on Oct. 16, she’ll become its first female CEO. the existing cranes at Pacific Terminal will be installed at the South Terminal. “We’re working on recruiting a shipyard,” Lefeber said. Shipyard operations ceased in 2017, when
Vigor Marine left. Any new operation would occupy the former shipyard’s footprint, located on the seaport’s northern edge. The port also celebrates a new federal Marine Highway designation this year. The Marine Highway concept, a U.S. Department of Transportation initiative, is aimed at increasing the use of the nation’s waterways to transport goods, thus reducing the number of trucks on the highways. The federal designation allows the port to expand its barge service between Everett and the ports of Seattle and Tacoma. That service could take hundreds of trucks off Interstate 5 each month — one of the most gridlocked corridors in the nation. Barges are slowmoving, low-impact and low emission, said Lefeber. The rule of thumb? “Every container equals one truck,” she said. Hotel Indigo, a 142-room hotel that overlooks Port Gardner, officially opens this month. The hotel at 1028 13th St. is a key feature of the port district’s Waterfront Place development, a multimillion dollar makeover. The hotel also brings with it a new restaurant, the Jetty Bar &
Grille. Located on the building’s southeast side, the restaurant overlooks the new Pacific Rim Park and splash fountain. The park, which celebrates the port’s global trade mission, opened this summer. Slightly east of the new hotel, SeaLevel Properties and Gracorp have broken ground on the new Waterfront Place Apartments at 1300 and 1400 West Marine View Drive. Last monthy, they secured a $67 million construction loan. Two, fourstory buildings with 266 apartments are planned. The north building, with 135 units, is targeted for completion in spring 2021. The 131-unit south building is expected to follow in summer 2021. “The project will bring housing to the Everett waterfront for the first time,” Lefeber said. The port’s Riverside Business Park — an 86-acre business park — also welcomed a new tenant this summer: Amazon. The Seattlebased online retail giant is opening a new distribution center at the industrial center along the Snohomish River in northeast Everett near BNSF Railway Co.’s Delta Yard.

EvCC seeks more women for aerospace programs The college gets a grant to partner with Boeing and three Snohomish County school districts By Janice Podsada Herald Writer
EVERETT — Are we sending a message to girls and women that they shouldn’t get their hands dirty? If so, we may be cheating them out of thousands of high-paying jobs and hundreds of thousands of dollars. It’s a question educators at Everett Community College and local school districts are asking. Regionally, the median salary — half make more and half make less — for aviation mechanics is $70,620, according to the Washington State Employment Security Department. But it’s not uncommon for mechanics to earn $100,000 or more, said Rob Prosch, interim Dean of Aerospace and Advanced Manufacturing Careers at EvCC. “Our young women are not aware this job exists and the salaries they can make,” Prosch said. It takes plenty of people on the ground to keep the airplanes aloft, and there’s a nationwide shortage of aircraft mechanics. “If we’re telling young men you can do this, but not telling our young women you can do this, we’re failing them,” said Prosch. There may be no better

place to pose the question. Nearly half of the state’s aerospace jobs are located in Snohomish County— so where are the women? Less than 3% of the aviation maintenance industry is female, Prosch said. Now with the help of a federal grant, Prosch and others hope to identify and knock down the barriers that are leaving girls and women on the sidelines. EvCC will receive a three-year $412,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to boost the
number of women in aerospace technician programs. The college will partner with the Everett, Marysville and Mukilteo school districts. On the industry side, Boeing, Delta Air Lines and Glasair Aviation in Arlington will join in. Participating schools hope to see a 30% increase in female student enrollment in aerospace career and technical classes at EvCC at the end of three years. Most of the grant money will support professional development for middle and high school teachers,
community college faculty and career counselors. “We want to ensure that the teaching methods that we’re using at all levels is inclusive of women and young men of color,” Prosch said. Young women and young men of color will be recruited to participate in STEM opportunities and invited to learn more about aviation maintenance and technologies. Ana Naulivou is one of a handful of female students at EvCC’s Aviation Maintenance Technology program, a two-year program.
She also works full-time at Boeing. The aerospace company is paying her tuition — a perk some employers offer, Prosch said. “My dad wanted me to be a pilot. But I always wanted to know how things fly — even butterflies,” said Naulivou, a second-year student. In 2017, she was one of the first of 10 students to enroll in a new avionics program at EvCC. Avionic students learn to repair and maintain an aircraft’s electronic systems. Here and there, though, Naulivou has had to stand
her ground. “I tell the guys — you know the reality is we’re all human. We have two arms and two legs. Why shouldn’t women have the opportunity to do this job?” Naulivou said. “When I talk to parents and girls and tell them this is what I do — they get excited. They realize there’s a world for women in aviation.” Getting more young women and students of color interested in the aerospace industry means working directly with See NEXT PAGE

Aviation mechanics? Oh, you don’t want to get dirty doing that.” “The young women that are in our program love to get their hands dirty. They’re just go-getters and know exactly what they want,” Prosch said. Graduates of the two-year program are scooped up by local aerospace companies with the potential to earn sixfigure salaries.

Greater outreach has been key to attracting more female students, Holt said, especially since aviation maintenance is one of the aerospace industry’s hidden occupations. The mechanics who tend to the plane when it’s on the ground aren’t as visible as the pilots, Prosch said. The number of people needed to perform aircraft inspections, routine maintenance and repairs is outpacing the number of students in aviation maintenance programs. The nation’s aerospace industry is facing a shortage of skilled workers, and by extension, the state’s and county’s aerospace companies. Between 2021 and 2026, job openings in the state’s aerospace sector are expected to surpass 6,000 per year, but nearly

In short, the aerospace industry can’t hope to fill those jobs without bringing women and other underrepresented workers to the table. “The only way we can come close to filling that is increasing the number of women,” Prosch said.

Mentors can help small businesses adapt to demands of growth By Janice Podsada Herald Writer
LYNNWOOD — Angel’s Cleaning Service, a small two-person business, got a big new client this spring — a contractor for Sound Transit’s light rail Lynnwood Link Extension. It took the owner of Angel’s Cleaning, Silver Hernandez, by surprise. “I wasn’t going out and looking for business,” she said. “They found us on Yelp.” For the last few years, it’s been Hernandez and her husband, Cesar Lopez, earning enough to take care of the family, she said.
Then the contractor invited Hernandez to submit a bid, and she was awarded the contract to clean their new office. The firm moved into the lower level of a former Sears store in Shoreline this spring. About 180 workers, including engineers and planners, are based there. “It’s a busy office during the day, so we clean it at night,” said Hernandez, 37. Moving from a one or two-person family business to a business with employees is challenging, no matter what kind of operation you run, small business experts say.
Instead of viewing it as an onerous task, focus instead on how hiring “can open up a range of possibilities for your business. You’ll be able to grow your revenue, take your company in new directions, and maybe even enjoy your work more than ever,” according to a recent business. com article. “It’s scary and exciting to have this new customer,” Hernandez said. “We clean from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.,”she said. “We go home to eat dinner and then we go back to work until 9 p.m.” “I am going at a rate that

“I wasn’t going out and looking for business,” Hernandez said. “They found us on Yelp.” I never expected,” said Hernandez, who founded her cleaning business four years ago. The stepped-up pace prompted her to reach out to the Small Business Administration. The SBA referred her to Alicia Marselina, project coordinator and financial analyst with Economic Alliance Snohomish County. “Alicia is helping me with how to do my books — things are going to grow,” Hernandez said. Marselina helped connect Hernandez to SCORE, a national volunteer network of business experts and mentors. Said Marselina, “Having a good accounting system

She did residential, apartment moveouts and janitorial help.” Hernandez, who attended Mariner High School, worked in retail businesses and then for a Bellevue cleaning company. In her mid-20s,
she rejoined her mother’s business. “We worked together until four years ago when my mom got sick,” Hernandez said. Overnight, it became hers — the business that her mom started 25 years ago. “I never knew the whole business side, the office side, the scheduling, the accounting,” Hernandez said. “My mom tried to teach me some of the business side. A lot I learned, but through trial and error.” The first year was rocky. “I don’t know how I survived,” she said. If she had it to do all over again, Hernandez wouldn’t change the name of her mom’s business. “I wanted to start over at that point,” she said. Now, she recognizes the value of a legacy business and its
reputation. “We learn by our mistakes,” she said. Recently, a supervisor at the Shoreline office asked Hernandez if she would consider cleaning the contractor’s Bellevue offices. The offer has provided “some reassurance that they like us and want to work with us in the future,” Hernandez said. Whatever happens, she feels prepared to take the next step. “There’s great sources of education and help for the small business,” Hernandez said. “I really wish I had known about that when I started this.

Leadership awards recognize economic, community efforts When the real awards were lost, Leadership Snohomish County gave away rubber ducks. By Janice Podsada Herald Writer
EVERETT —Leadership Snohomish County recognized Lisa Lefeber, the Port of Everett’s incoming CEO, for her efforts to boost economic growth with a rubber duck. You read that right — a rubber duck. Leadership, a nonprofit group that trains future leaders, held its annual awards ceremony last month at the Angel of the Winds Arena in Everett. When the “real” awards were lost in transit, executive director Kathy Coffey had to think on the fly. “I decided to present large rubber ducks. They can’t be crushed, they are bright and they always rise to the top even when held under water,” Coffey said. The description can also apply to
leaders who must be “adaptable and think out of the box when life does not go their way,” she said. “Lisa Lefeber loved it,” Coffey said. “She said we can get rid of the awards and just give the ducks with a plaque every year because people loved the symbolism and whimsy so much,” she said. On Oct. 16 Lefeber will become the 101-year-old port’s first female CEO. Lefeber received the Deborah Knutson Women in Leadership award. Named for the late leader of the Snohomish County Economic Development Council, the award recognizes a woman in the county who shares a passion for job growth and economic development. Knutson’s daughter, Erin Knutson Williams, presented the award to Lefeber at the nonprofit’s fourth annual Leadership Day. More than 350 people attended. “We are beyond blessed in Snohomish County to have such a pool of amazing and talented candidates to choose from,” said Knutson, a See NEXT PAGE

OCTOBER 2019 From PREVIOUS PAGE business developer for the Aerospace Joint Apprenticeship Committee. “Leadership Day was born out of a unique time four years ago,” Coffey said. “In 2016 – a time when our country was more divided than any time in recent years that I can recall – we decided we wanted to establish an official Leadership Day here in our county. We wanted to bring individuals together – regardless of political affiliation, socioeconomic status, race, religion or title,” Coffey said. The event raised $28,000, which will be used to fund the group’s programs and scholarships. Since its founding in 1998, Leadership has invested $800,000 in the community. More than 800 have graduated from its leadership development program.

Other award winners also received rubbers ducks. The real awards were eventually found and delivered, Coffey said.
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Snohomish County received Leadership’s 2019 Community Partner Award.
The Snohomish County chapter has more than 22 club locations and 15 school-based sites that offer programs that serve local youth. Bill Tsoukalas, executive director of the county chapter, accepted the award. The Distinguished Alumni Award went to Seema Sharma, a 2016 graduate of Leadership’s nine-month leadership development program. “Seema is connected to Domestic Violence Services, served on their board and found ways to build bridges into her world with DVS. She worked with her husband Arun Sharma to create a major gathering of the Southeast Asian Communities here in Snohomish county,” Coffey said. Diane Kamionka, interim executive director of the Northwest Innovation Resource Center, presented the center’s

Mentoring Leadership Award to Jan Vandebos. The serial entrepreneur has founded and built multiple successful businesses, Kamionka said. The resource center assists early-stage entrepreneurs and inventors. “Jan has a passion for helping entrepreneurs who know their subject matter but need assistance with all of the elements of starting a successful business,” Kamionka said. A new honor, the “Leadership in Human Resources Award,” was given to James Trefry, administrative services director with the City of Arlington. Ashika Vijay, president of the Snohomish County Human Resources Association, presented the award. It recognizes an individual, a department or organization that demonstrates an outstanding commitment to furthering the
Human Resources profession in Snohomish County, Vijay said. Said Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert: “James is a champion for each employee he supervises, and encourages them to focus on growing their skills, oftentimes pushing them out of their comfort zones.” Leadership Day 2019 sponsors included Tulalip Tribes, Kaiser Permanente, Sno-Isle Libraries, Snohomish County, Seahurst Electric, McKinstry, Herald Media, The Everett Clinic, Mountain Pacific Bank, City University of Seattle, Community Transit, BECU, Sno-Isle Libraries Foundation and the City of Everett.
