Ferndale Community Almanac • Ferndale Record

What is an almanac?

Traditionally, an almanac is an annual publication containing dates, statistical information and tables relating to the coming year. For our purposes, the Ferndale Community Almanac is a little different. This publication is a snapshot of

Ferndale as it exists in the year of publication.

In this case, of course, that year is 2021.

We didn't do an almanac in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The coronavirus is still very much a looming presence as schools and businesses welcome students and customers back into their physical spaces.

That said, one very prominent fact became clear as the pandemic dragged on: Ferndale is a resilient place, and life continues there, even in an altered state, as city residents continue to live their lives. Many Ferndale mainstays returned this year, including the annual Old Settlers Picnic and Summer of Fun events,

while some haven't returned, including the Ferndale Street Festival. Even though 2021 continues to look different than the years prior to 2020, we hope this almanac provides a snapshot of Ferndale as it is now to current and future readers.

Mayor credits Ferndale’s openness, affordability for steady growth rates

By Brent Lindquist brent@lyndentribune.com

FERNDALE — Ferndale

may or may not be the second-largest city in Whatcom County, but either way, the city is certainly growing fast.

Ferndale Mayor Greg Hansen released a video July 28 announcing that Ferndale has 15,270 residents in Ferndale, about 160 more than Lynden, according to recent numbers reported by Washington state Office of Financial Management.

“We knew we were growing,” Hansen said in an inter-

view with the Record. “We didn’t know we were going to grow past Lynden. Each year it seemed like we were getting closer and closer. We’re a little bit surprised by that number.”

Hansen said that more recent, unofficial data from the United States Census Bureau suggests that Lynden may actually still be ahead by about 35 people, but that doesn’t change the fact that Ferndale is growing, and

August 2021

growing quickly. So quickly, in fact, that it holds the distinction of being the fastestgrowing city in Washington outside of King County.

“For a lot of people, it feels like sudden growth, but it’s actually been pretty consistent, steady growth,” Hansen said.

Data shows that the city is growing by 250 to 400 residents per year. Hansen said Continued on next page 3

Ferndale Community Almanac • Ferndale Record the city has been working steadily to accommodate that growth and to anticipate it in the city’s Comprehensive Plan.

“It’s not like it came out of nowhere,” Hansen said.

The growth and potential secondplace status is due to a variety of factors, some more complicated than others. Hansen said part of it is the city’s proximity to the largest city in Whatcom County, Bellingham, a city that is also growing fast, and with a lack of single-family housing.

Ferndale has had a lot of buildable land over the past decade, and a lot of development has taken place.

“A lot of new, large neighborhoods are going in in Ferndale,” Hansen said. “It’s been affordable to move to Ferndale. And Ferndale’s a great place to live.”

Ferndale is a distinctly different place than Lynden, and certain people do choose Ferndale over Lynden, for a variety of reasons, Hansen said.

Coming up As Ferndale continues to weather the COVID-19 pandemic just like other cities around the state, the country and the world, many developments both big and small are on the horizon for Whatcom County’s second-largest city.

The Thornton Street Overcrossing is in its ongoing settlement period (read about that on page 18), with completion

Ferndale Community Almanac • Ferndale Record expected in 2023.

“It’s certainly exciting knowing that’s going to change our downtown and change the dynamic of the traffic,” Hansen said.

The overcrossing is expected to divert a lot of the daily traffic away from downtown Ferndale, as it will give residents another way to access residential Ferndale from the Portal Way roundabout.

There are also a few less-flashy but nonetheless important projects coming up that are symbolic of the growth Ferndale has seen for decades.

“The wastewater treatment plant is about to get fired up and start to actually come online,” Hansen said.

“It’s a change in technology but also a huge change in capacity. It’s something that we need to do because of our See Growth on page 22

Summer of Fun concludes, draws hundreds

Space Band concert was city’s biggest summer event

By Izzie Lund izzie@lyndentribune.com

FERNDALE — Ferndale’s annual Summer of Fun ended on Aug. 14 after drawing 6

hundreds of people together for movie showings, outdoor concerts, Food Truck Fridays and a scavenger hunt.

The event consisted of Food Truck Fridays, where food trucks sold hot meals to the public, on the first Friday of each month -- June 4, July 2 and Aug. 6. The city held outdoor concerts with local bands on June 18, July 17 and Aug. 14. The bands were rock cover band 3 Trick Pony, R&B

and hip-hop group Space Band and folk band Vaudeville Etiquette. They also showed the movies “Coco,” “The Labyrinth” and “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” on June 25, July 9 and July 16.

According to Riley Sweeney, communications officer for the City of Ferndale, the biggest event was the outdoor concert featuring Space Band, which drew about 700

August 2021

people. He said Food Truck Fridays drew about 400 people per event. The movies drew about 200 people, although the showing of “The Labyrinth” on July 9 drew about 350.

The Great Ferndale Frontier Folley, a citywide scavenger hunt, took place throughout the month of July. Sweeney said that See Summer of Fun on page 8

people searched for missing cows on banders, with a word scramble on each cow that would solve the riddle. Prizes were included.

“People could [also] do other things to earn points like helping a neighbor with an errand, or talking to a veteran about their service,” Sweeney said. “I always love getting those scorecards back because you get the most phenomenal stories about people discovering their city.”

Sweeney said the planning was hard because state COVID-19 regulations changed several times during the event.

“There were all sorts of new safety protocols that we enacted, but there were rules for how to operate an event in Washington state [that] changed several times throughout the course of the summer,” Sweeney said. “So Food Truck Fridays (above) happened periodically throughout the 2021 Summer of we had one set of restric- Fun. Below: Space Band was another Music in the Park player. (Courtesy photos/City of Ferndale) tions in place when did our first Food Truck Friday … and then a different set of restrictions a month later as the ‘Stay Home, Stay Healthy’ phases expired, and then a whole new set of restrictions as cases decline.”

He said the event usually has field games and water fights, but the city canceled those this year because those events require people to interact with each other.

“To my knowledge, no cases of COVID were traced back to Ferndale parks events,” Sweeney said.

He said the city plans to host the Summer of Fun again next summer, and are currently planning the Mystery in the Park event scheduled for Oct. 30.

“Throughout all of these events, people are thrilled to get out, see their neighbors and have fun,” Sweeney said.

Long time postal clerk Randy Kaech retiring Aug. 27

FERNDALE — “I’ve en-

joyed my years at the post office. We’ve had a good team.”

Randy Kaech is retiring after 62 years at the post office.

Could that be a typo?

No. Kaech, a long-time postal clerk interacting with the Ferndale public, started counting the time spent in his mother’s womb while she and his father worked

at their small town’s post office.

The small town, Frances, Washington, is in the southeast part of the state. He left there to attend Western Washington University between 1979 and 1982 where he studied business administration with computer science as a combined degree with a minor in sociology.

August 2021

He later added post graduate theological work at Regent College in Canada.

With that type of education, Kaech found himself going in multiple directions initially: delivering singing telegrams, selling peanuts at the late Kingdome, website design, serving as a fireman for the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) for

Ferndale Community Almanac • Ferndale Record slash burns, driving for UPS, selling at Circuit City, and even being a university campus pastor for several years in Cologne, Germany.

He then started at the post office in Ferndale in 1996 – and stayed. He stayed not only with the USPS but in the same town.

Soon it will be time for him to say “ goodbye, and he encourages customers to come in between 9 a.m. and Noon to see him. “I have a regular relationship with customers (in contrast to working behind the scenes).”

Early in his career several local residents, including the late Joe Moser, heard there was a “Swiss” clerk and came to tell him they knew his father.

Years ago, he said money orders were placed at the post office by hand. Now obviously they are also done Continued on next page

Randy Kaech is known for hosting chess clubs and tournaments in Ferndale. (File photo) by computer. Kaech said on his watch he has seen the volume of letters shrink but a large increase, especially during the COVID year, in mailing packages. He said he had heard his postmaster say the volume has doubled

or tripled. While his father had maintained a stamp collection, which his brother inherited, he likes selecting favorite stamps and using them.

“Stamps are now more colorful,” he said when think-

ing of memories attached to his work. “They come in 3-D, are more complex, and there was even a scratch-and-sniff stamp of a popsicle.”

Another special part of working with the public is customer service to older

members of society and those who may have language issues after living and working abroad. “I felt an empathy with the elderly. I was involved in college with the elderly (too).”

He has coached chess at Ferndale High School for 22 years and is nationally ranked as a coach by the governing authority, the U.S. Chess Coaching Federation. Several of his past students have included Elliott and Ethan Neff who have continued the tradition by coaching chess themselves.

Thornton project in settlement period

Even two years before planned completion, crews have been hard at work on construction around the Thornton Street Overcrossing project in Ferndale. (Courtesy photo/City of Ferndale)

Construction on bridge portion of overcrossing can likely commence next summer

By Brent Lindquist brent@lyndentribune.com

FERNDALE — For a very

long time, the Thornton Street Overpass has been a major topic of discussion in and around the city of Ferndale.

Traffic in Ferndale is increasingly prevalent as the city grows, and the overpass is intended as a way to provide another way into and out of town.

Currently underway, the project will connect Thornton Street to the roundabout at Portal Way and Second

Avenue. This will provide a prime route for residents living on the west side of Ferndale, routing them away from downtown Ferndale. The obstacle, of course, is the railroad tracks, and the overpass will bring vehicles over it.

In addition to the elevated crossing, the city is upgrading Thornton Street, including curb, gutter, shoulder, sidewalk and new street lighting. A new stormwater treat-

August 2021

ment and detention facility is planned, as well as water and stormwater system upgrades.

Construction on the overpass began in April 2020 with an earthen wall embankment leading up to the overpass.

There’s a great deal of pre-load needed to compress the soil beneath the embankments leading to the forthcoming bridge. This means that the construction on the project is a long process, stretching

Ferndale Community Almanac • Ferndale Record

This graphic shows an approximation of what the final Thornton Street Overpass could look like once crews finish up in the summer of 2023. (Courtesy graphic/City of Ferndale) across multiple construction seasons as crews work to finish it up. The project’s estimated completion date is 2023.

“We’re in a settlement period, so there’s two sides. The one, the west side will be done with its settlement period in

September.

“The east side, that settlement period won’t conclude until June of 2022,” city Capital Projects Manager Katy Radder said.

There will be more work that can be done this year once

the west-side settlement is finished up around September, but much of the project needs to sit until the whole area is settled. Radder estimated that construction would kick up in early summer of 2022 with drilling shafts and starting on

the actual bridge portion of the project.

“They just have to make sure everything’s settled out before they start building that structure,” Radder said.

The overpass is funded Continued on next page

growth, and it’s a big deal.”

In addition to the new wastewater treatment plant, a re-do of the city’s water treatment plant is set to get underway toward the end of 2021.

“Not only are we changing some of the way that we treat the water, we’re also treating that new water source,” Hansen said.

“There’ll be a noticeable change in the water, but to what extent that will mean a change in quality will be up to every person’s taste.”

To add to a renewal effort earlier in 2021, STAR Park will undergo some enhancements in the coming month as finishing touches are put on a new picnic shelter that will accommodate gatherings. Supply-chain issues have delayed the project a bit, but it should be completed soon, Hansen said.

Looking a bit further ahead, The planned Metalworks Skate Park will become a reality in the coming years, with the hiring of contractors coming toward the end of 2021 with an eye toward having the park completed in 2022.

“I remember probably 10 years or more now when there was a group of individuals really rallying to get a skate park built in Ferndale,” Hansen said. “To finally have that project breaking ground will be a big deal.”

As the city continues to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, it has some help from the American Rescue Plan Act. The city recently received more than $4 million to help with the recovery from the pandemic, totaling out to about 4% of the city’s annual general fund. The ways the city can use the funds are limited, but Hansen said the money will go a long way for

Ferndale Community Almanac • Ferndale Record Ferndale.

“It’s an incredibly unique opportunity for me as mayor and for the city as an administration to be able to take $4 million and invest it in our community in ways that a small community like Ferndale could never do,” Hansen said.

He said Ferndale is working with other communities to determine how best to use the funds.

“It kind of builds on what’s been happening throughout the pandemic which is this amazing collaboration that’s been taking place between all of the cities in Whatcom County and Whatcom County as well as other agencies like the Port of Bellingham to put our heads together to figure out how to solve these problems that really affect all of us,” Hansen said.
