Business Alliance against forced-electrification bill 1589

WHATCOM — Business lead-

ers raised an action alert last week on an energy electri cation bill they say would add signicant costs upon businesses and homeowners.

e Whatcom Business Alliance called attention to HB 1589, which has already passed the House on a 52-44 vote and was due up for action in a Senate committee on March 28.

e bill did, in fact, pass out of the Committee on Environment, Energy and Technology on a 5-3 party-line vote. Now in Rules, the bill could progress to a Senate oor vote before the Washington State Legislature is scheduled to adjourn on April 23.

e legislation is largely targeted toward Puget Sound Energy as the region’s dominant gas and electricity supplier. If passed, e ective July 1, 2023, the company could no longer supply gas to new residential or commercial hookups.

PSE would also have to le a gas decarbonization and electrication plan with the Utilities and Transportation Commission. Gas backups would not be permitted.

At the same time, PSE would be guaranteed 60% ownership of the clean energy it needs to comply with the state’s 2019 Clean Energy Transformation Act.

Cascade Natural Gas, with fewer than the threshold 500,000 customers, would not come under the act.

It’s all part of multiple man-

dates at various levels of government to move away from fossil fuels. HB 1589 also follows up on the 2021 Washington Climate Commitment Act, which caps and reduces greenhouse gas emissions from the state’s largest emitting sources.

Last year, Bellingham became the third Washington city, after Seattle and Shoreline, to require new buildings -- all commercial ones and residential ones more than three stories -- to use electricity instead of natural gas to heat water and rooms. Gas kitchen appliances and replaces are still allowed.

Also, complicating the picture, last November the State Energy Code Council, appointed by the Natural gas to homes for heating is being shut down by some government action to cut greenhouse gas emissions. (Cal Bratt for the Record)

Ferndale School Board accepts settlement after joining suit

FERNDALE — Funding is on the way to help educate students around the hazards of vaping.

In 2022, the Ferndale School Board approved an agreement for the district to join a class action suit pursuing claims for damages associated with JUUL and electronic cigarette litigation.

A settlement has been reached and the board’s legal counsel recommended the board accept the settlement. During the March 28 meeting, the board approved a resolution and settlement agreement, setting in motion the process for the district to receive these funds.

Assistant Superintendent of Business Services Mark Deebach explained the process to the board and the purpose of the funds. e intent of participating in the suit, according to Deebach, was to provide education and resources to help students either stop vaping or never start.

“From earlier in the evening, there is a need for drug and alcohol education,” Board Vice President Melinda Cool said, referring to the public comment period when community members brought up a recent student death and concerns about drug and alcohol use among students.

According to the agreement, the board is “eligible to receive a gross o er of $85,669.42” and “no general budget funds for the district would be expended on the litigation.”

“What we’re working towards is getting in front of it before it starts,” Superintendent Kristi Dominguez said.

First step is with RMC Architects; construction will be in 2024

FERNDALE — A new Pioneer Park stage will be designed. And

the ideal goal is for it to be built and ready for the 2024 Old Settlers event. Ferndale City Council voted 5-1 Monday to spend up to $137,000 for RMC Architects of Bellingham to do the design work. Actual construction will be about $500,000.

“ is is something that has been waiting a long time. is is something we need to do,” Councilor Herb Porter said. Public Works Director Kevin

Renz said his department has always made sure the existing decades-

old stage is bolstered and strong enough to handle the performers who will be on it for another year, and that will be done for 2023. But there comes a “tipping point” when repairs that have to be made are no longer worth it, he said.

Ryan O’Larey cast the lone vote against, after asking if there were ways the city could cut costs or be surer of where the money was coming from. Jon Mutchler insisted that

Body found believed to be missing woman

Sta Reports

WHATCOM —

On Sunday, April 2, dispatch received a report from an individual who was helping search the area in Maple Falls where Julie MontagueAyers went missing on March 10.

According to an April 3 press release

from the Whatcom County Sheri ’s Ofce, the individual believed he had located MontagueAyers’ body in a deep ravine in a wooded area near the family home.

Due to what WCSO called “steep terrain and weather conditions,” Search and Rescue person-

nel and resources were unable to safely access the area and retrieve the victim. According to WCSO, a plan was developed to utilize a ground team or a helicopter the following day to recover the body. A security detail remained on the scene until resourc-

es were able to return to the area.

Monday, April 3, members of Bellingham Mountain Rescue were able to reach the victim and extricate her from the ravine, WCSO reported. e deceased was turned over to the Whatcom County Medical Examiner’s O ce.

Based on the location and the last known description of the female, the victim is believed to be Julie MontagueAyers, WCSO stated. e o cial identi cation of the victim will be determined by the Whatcom County Medical Examiner’s O ce.

Alliance: Opposes forced-electrification bill

Continued from A1

governor, adopted code forbidding builders from using natural gas or propane in new construction as a primary source of energy. A heat pump could be used for space and water heating. However, a group of building industry associations has led suit against the code change.

e plainti s argue that the council il-

legally enacted the policy after Gov. Jay Inslee failed to get similar proposals through earlier sessions of the legislature.

e way the Whatcom Business Alliance sees it, HB 1589 could have a major negative impact on homeowners, businesses, grocers and restaurants.

“Prohibiting natural gas for housing will increase the cost of new middle housing between $6,200 and $13,100 more per

unit,” the alliance wrote. “ is doesn’t include the annual operating cost of using natural gas, which is one-third the cost of electricity.”

Bellingham is one city aiming to be 100% carbon-neutral by 2050.

Electrical power is expected to get cleaner in Washington as utilities meet mandates to produce coal-free electricity by 2025, greenhouse gas-neutral power

(including the use of carbon o sets) by 2030 and fully green power by 2045. But the cost of such progress is unclear.

On HB 1589, Reps. Alex Ramel and Debra Lekano of the 40th District were both sponsors. When it came to the House oor, the two Democratic representatives of the north-Whatcom 42nd District split their votes, Joe Timmons going in favor and Alicia Rule against.

New Stage: To be designed for Pioneer Park

Continued from A1 hiring an architect was the “logical next step.”

Councilor Ali Hawkinson said that if the construction cost does rise beyond estimates, the community groups that use Pioneer Park and the stage should be asked to chip in some dollars.

A new stage, while staying at about 760 square feet and using the existing concrete assembly area, will be reoriented more to the southeast, city papers show. e foundation will be built to withstand possi-

ble ooding. e stage will be disabled-accessible and have limited audiovisual components and spot lighting. It will have toilets, a changing room and a storage area. If the ideal schedule cannot be met, construction will begin immediately after 2024 Old Settlers, Renz said.

• Council learned how code compliance happens for the City of Ferndale by the one who heads it up, Kyla Boswell.

While being mostly complaint-initiated, there is a series of steps Boswell

goes through to check against city code, actually see a situation, talk with the parties and then write letters of correction or violation, and follow through.

Boswell said 2022 had 69 cases, and 43 cases are currently open. e biggest categories involve out-ofcontrol plants/vegetation and city ordinance violations. Other problems could be lack of property upkeep, inoperable vehicles, or stu left on city right-of-way.

Councilors thanked Boswell for having the patience and personality to do what could be a thank-

less task.

• Mayor Greg Hansen reported on his trip with City Administrator Jori Burnett to Washington, D.C., to lobby personally for federal dollars for various Ferndale projects. While it is still “we will see” on what dollars come, Hansen said the pair got a good favorable hearing with o cials and were appreciated for making the visit in person. e trip “laid a good foundation” for ongoing contact with certain people, the mayor said.

• Ferndale’s hearing

examiner functions somewhat as a land-use judge on various permitting actions, ranging from subdivisions to variances.

Council agreed to in-

crease the hearing examiner’s hourly fee from $180 to $200 and to extend the current contract with Michael Bobbink two years through 2025.

Suicide-prevention bill adds infraction for people who voluntary waive gun rights

Washington

OLYMPIA — People with mental health issues and those who might consider suicide sometimes voluntarily give up their right to possess guns by ling a voluntary waiver of their rearm rights with the clerk of the court of any county within the state.

Under a bill now being debated in the Legislature, ling such a waiver would be allowed electronically and revoking the waiver would trigger noti cation of a friend or relative.

STATE STATE

Substitute Senate Bill

5006, by Sen. Jamie Pederson, D-Seattle, also would create a class 4 civil infraction of unlawful possession of a rearm for a person who has a rearm in their possession after a voluntary waiver has been accepted by a clerk. e civil infraction has a maximum penalty of $25 and each unlawfully owned rearm would count for a separate infraction under the bill.

e infraction was added because the FBI doesn’t keep waivers in the background check system if no infraction exists. “We took the absolute

lightest penalty that we could nd, which is a $25 civil infraction, and put it in,” he said, to satisfy FBI requirements. “While we were doing that, we made some additional changes that are based on ve years of experience with how the voluntary waiver program is working.”

Diane Studley, former school district arts program coordinator, said her parents committed double suicide in 1996.

“I don’t know for sure if a voluntary waiver of these rights for having a rearm would have saved my parents from their double sui-

cide,” she said. “I do know for sure that it is horri c to have your loved ones” kill themselves.

e option to le electronically will eliminate some barriers for some of the most vulnerable people, and a therapist or family member can be alerted if a person attempts to purchase a rearm or revoke the waiver, she said.

Mental health and substance use disorder professionals would be encouraged to discuss a voluntary waiver of rearm rights with their patients if they believe the discussion will minimize

danger to the patient or another individual, but they would not be required to do so.

Pederson said SSB 5006 is a useful suicide prevention because a person who has concerns about their mental health would be able to put themselves on a do-not-purchase list.

If that person goes to a gun shop to purchase a rearm in a moment of crisis, they will come up as a prohibited purchaser, he said.

Aoibheann Cline, National Ri e Association state director, said the threat of legal trouble or

a ne might discourage a person from waiving their rights. “ e immediate e ectiveness of the waiver appears to be an unintended trap,” she said. “ ere is no grace period or lag time to surrender guns without committing a violation under this bill. is notice process seems backwards.”

House Bill 1155 restricts collection of health data

OLYMPIA — Use of consumer reproductive health data would be much more restricted under House Bill 1155, the proposed My Health, My Data Act.

e proposed law requires the consumer’s consent before sharing or collecting personal health data. is prohibits organizations from selling consumer health data not otherwise protected by law.

After an extended oor debate over 23 proposed amendments, the bill received a vote of 57-39 in the state House of Representatives and moved to the Senate.

In 2022, Attorney General Bob Ferguson announced his o ce is partnering with Rep. Vandana Slatter, D-Bellevue, and

Sen. Manka Dhingra, D-Redmond, to propose legislation to increase data privacy protections in the health data sector.

Sponsored by Slatter, HB 1155 is part of a package of legislation designed in response to constitutional protections for reproductive healthcare and abortion rights.

“ is law will give Washingtonians more control over how their health data is used,” Ferguson said in a press release. “ is is a key part of protecting Washingtonians’ access to safe, private, and reproductive care — which is more urgent now than ever.”

Consumer health data includes personal information linked to a consumer’s past, present or future physical health. e bill includes an exception for public or peer-reviewed research and exemptions

for processing covered by existing health privacy laws. e bill prevents health-tracking apps, search engines, and advertisers from collecting and sharing Washingtonian health data without the user’s consent.

“In Washington State, we expect our healthcare data to be protected, and that includes reproductive and gender-a rming care,” said Slatter. “ at means combating predatory behaviors such as the sale of private reproductive healthcare data that leads to restrictions on healthcare in states like Texas. Protecting us from attacks on our most sensitive health data is long overdue. Websites and apps have the tools to protect our data. It’s time they did that.”  ose against the bill said the language in the bill does not protect data privacy,

and it will limit technology already in place in the digital world.  “ is is a broad net that will scoop in company products and services that don’t really deal with anything around consumer health data. But in order to comply, we will have to spend time, money, and resources and make the products and services we use even more complex and entangled than they already are. On the other hand we’re using the government to expand that data, so that concerns me,” said Rep. Chris Corry, R-Yakima.

Settlement: Ferndale School Board accepts after joining suit

Continued from A1 e board also discussed a recently proposed plan to bring a skills center to Whatcom County and approved moving forward with exploring joining the e ort to bring this resource to the community.

“We would enter a feasibility study at this point, we’re not locked in. And unless the legislation passes this, there is no skills center,” Dominguez said. “ is is just to show support to move forward.” is e ort began after Washington State Skills Center Association identi ed Whatcom County as a skill center desert, and now a prioritized location

for a future CTE campus through Northwest Career & Technical Academy (NCTA) long-range plan.

Northwest Career & Technical Academy is an a liate of several Northwest Washington school districts providing free technical and professional training for high-school-age students. Right now, the closest campus for students in Whatcom to utilize is located in Skagit County.

“I had a son who was able to take advantage of the program they ran at Meridian,” Board Member Steve Childs said. “And it was a stepping stone to a career in engineering, and [was] quite successful, so there are perks to this.”

“We may not be able to capture every single program of interest for our students,” Dominguez said. “So if we can keep them engaged in school, and this is one way, we want to make sure, just as Mark said, that we have options for our students.”

“ is is something to think about for the good of Whatcom County students in general. We have a great CTE program,” Cool said. “Other schools don’t, and let’s not make them go down to Skagit to participate in something like this.”

Other points from the meeting:

• Complaints: As of April 3, Executive Director of Communications Celina Rodriguez

con rmed that no action has been taken by the district regarding Nancy Button’s complaint against the school board, district, and Eagleridge Elementary teacher Tammy Alejandre. Another complaint was led against the district and school board by Arthur West on March 28, Rodriguez said.

• Bond update: Footings are in place for the CTE building and it is “progressing nicely and on schedule,” said Deebach.

• Entry plan: On April 19, Dominguez will make the rst presentation of her entry plan and data her team has gathered over her rst few months in the role.

• Student vote: e board may

soon be formalizing a student advisory vote, meaning student board members would be asked to weigh in on items the board is taking action on. Cool was inspired by other districts and explained that “before the chair asks for votes from board members, [the chair] turns to the students and gives student board members a chance to register pro, con, or abstain.” is would be a formality and the votes would not actually count. e goal, said Cool, is to “make sure we take the time to say, ‘What do you think?’ Because the votes affect them.”

Hoelzle said in a statement addressing her players, “I am very sad to say that I will no longer be the head coach of Ferndale Volleyball due to the district and FHS administrators deciding to ‘go in a di erent direction.’ I want to be clear that this is not my choosing and if I had my way, I would be here for all of your high school careers.”

“I have always done my very best, along with my amazing coaching sta , to ensure that each player is able to grow and thrive in a safe environment within our program. We are humans leading humans and we don’t always get it perfect, but we try to resolve anything that comes up in an equitable and meaningful way for all parties.”

Ferndale High School’s executive director of communications, Celina Rodriquez said in an email statement, “Coach Hoelzle has led the volleyball program and its success over the last 16 years. After

careful consideration and evaluation of our program, we have decided to move in a di erent direction for the upcoming season.”

“We cannot comment on a personnel decision, which is by its nature, condential. However, decisions like this are not ones we take lightly.”

“We are committed to nding a new head coach

who will continue to uphold the standards of our program and provide a positive and rewarding experience for our studentathletes. We appreciate Coach Hoelzle’s dedication during her time as head coach.” is story will be updated when the Tribune acquires more information.

Anyone having any objection to the sale on any grounds whatsoever will be afforded an opportunity to be heard as to those objections if they bring a lawsuit to restrain the sale pursuant to RCW 61.24.130. Failure to bring such a lawsuit may result in a waiver of any proper grounds for invalidating the Trustee’s sale.

NOTICE TO OCCUPANTS OR TENANTS. The purchaser at the trustee’s sale is entitled to possession of the property on the 20th day following the sale, as against the grantor under the deed of trust (the owner) and anyone having an interest junior to the deed of trust, including occupants who are not tenants. After the 20th day following the sale the purchaser has the right to evict occupants who are not tenants by summary proceedings under Chapter 59.12 RCW. For tenant-occupied property, the purchaser shall provide a tenant with written notice in accordance with RCW 61.24.060.
