Business Roundup Airlift Northwest returns to Wenatchee Valley WENATCHEE — The trip from Pangborn Memorial Airport to Chelan takes just 15 minutes. Leavenworth is 12 minutes away and Quincy only takes 10.

With its twin-engine helicopter, Airlift Northwest can reach a critical patient, perform emergency medicine and transport them to a hospital faster than virtually anyone.

And now, after a 12-year absence, the organization on July 8 established a permanent base in the Wenatchee Valley.

“Being able to respond quicker for the transport needs of Confluence (Medical Center) and the other facilities in Central Washington was important to us,” said Jonas Landstorm, the organization’s Central Washington regional manager.

“So when we looked at the places where we could put in an additional aircraft, we felt that Wenatchee would be a good central location to be able to support the area.”

Airlift had a base here from the 1990s to 2007, but since then they’ve served the Wenatchee area using aircraft stationed in Yakima or the Seattle area. But now there’s a crew stationed at Pangborn 24/7, always ready to take off from their base next to the Executive Flight building.

The non-profit organization is run by the University of Washington’s healthcare program, said Base Manager Suzanne Beck.

“Just because we’re under that umbrella doesn’t mean we take everyone to Seattle, we take patients wherever they need to go,” she said. “In this area,

Confluence is a very highly functioning facility, so most of the volume from our general area will come into here.”

In addition to bringing in patients from emergency scenes, Airlift also transports between facilities.

That’s why the organization’s new base in Wenatchee is so important, Landstorm said.

“You have Omak, Brewster, Lake Chelan, Quincy and all these smaller facilities. So it’s not just transporting to Seattle, but also being able to provide quick and efficient transports into Confluence from these smaller, outlying facilities,” Landstorm said.

Previously, Airlift’s closest base was in Yakima. Life Flight, another medical flight service, doesn’t have bases closer than Moses Lake or Brewster, according to its website.

And timing is everything when it comes to emergency medicine, Beck said.

Airlift’s goal is to be in the air within 5-7 minutes of a dispatch.

That takeoff process, which involves weather and other safety checks, can go up slightly in the winter, she said.

“Right now, the way we have our quarters designed, we can grab our helmets, the meds, and the blood are all right there,” she said. During shifts, the crew stays and works in a small manufactured home right next to the runway.

They can receive dispatches either from a 911 call center or directly from individual agencies or hospitals, which use a phone or computer app to request transport.

“We try to make it as quick as possible,

especially for those outlying providers who need to have their hands taking care of whoever needs it, not having to worry about making a billion phone calls,” Beck said.

For each flight, Airlift operates with one pilot and two nurses — one with a background in pediatrics and one in adult medicine.

In the field, patients are loaded into the belly of the helicopter on a stretcher.

In the air, the nursing staff has access to a range of medicine and equipment, but the goal is to keep the patient stable while getting to a hospital as fast as possible.

Nurses receive training on emergency procedures for the aircraft and ongoing safety lessons, Beck said.

Chelan PUD buying Horan House property for $854k WENATCHEE — The Chelan County PUD is buying the Horan House property next to the site of its future headquarters in Olds Station.

The utility entered into an agreement on June 18 with the family of Nevio Tontini to buy the land for $854,211, according to a PUD board agenda.

The PUD board on July 15 approved the purchase of the property.

The land was home to the historic Horan House from 1899 to May of this year, when the building was demolished.

The house was built by businessman Michael Horan and later used as a popular restaurant in the 1980s and 1990s.

Tontini purchased the 2.12-acre property for $328,000 in 2006, according to Chelan County Assessor’s Office records.

He had been working with developer Rory Turner to find a way to save the building, but no suitable use for it was found and the plan never got off the ground.

The PUD bought three adjacent parcels from the Port of Chelan County on Feb. 28 to build its new headquarters, which will consolidate the utility’s administration and service operations into one location.

The building itself won’t be on the Horan House property, spokesman Neil Neroutsos said July 11. A trail has been considered for the space, but no final decisions have been made.

Former Deaconess Hospital on the market for $4.2 million WENATCHEE — For much of the 20th century, the Deaconess Hospital was one of Wenatchee’s only medical centers.

Now, what remains of the structure on Okanogan Avenue is for sale for $4.2 million.

It was last used as a hospital in the 1970s, when the Deaconess operation and St. Anthony’s Hospital merged in what would later be known as Central Washington Hospital, according to the Confluence Health website.

The current owner, Willard Aldridge, purchased the property in 1999, Continued on page 13

30 Under 35 | Balancing Work and Life

Finding a balance

By Reilly Kneedler Business World staff writer

W

ENATCHEE — An assistant principal, an engineer, a wildlife specialist and a data analyst — this year’s 30 Under 35 class of young professionals come from myriad industries and backgrounds.

They were each nominated by someone in their lives and selected based on their dedication to their jobs and communities.

You’ll learn a lot about their careers in this special edition of the Wenatchee Valley Business World, but what about their time outside of the office? How do they balance their work lives with their hobbies, families and passions?

Alex Whitener, a research manager with a chemical company, first learned how difficult that balance can be while she was pursuing an entomology Ph.D in graduate school, she said.

She’d always loved the outdoors and had been an athlete in her undergrad years, but suddenly found she didn’t have the time to hike or run like she used to.

“When I got into graduate school, I kind of lost touch with those things. Part of it is you just get busy and you get very focused on your education because it can be very consuming,” she said. “… About halfway through grad school I was like ‘I can’t keep doing it this way, I need to have better balance.’”

That’s when she discovered trail running and she’s been doing it ever since. Now she tries to put in 10 to 25 miles per week, as well as doing crossfit and backpacking on the weekends, Whitener said.

Her work involves overseeing agricultural research experiments for chemical company FMC Corporation. She regularly visits research sites all over Washington and Oregon.

“I’m on the road, looking at trials, seeing how the research is going, taking photos as they progress and that’s all very seasonal,” she said. “Then in the winter I spend the travel time going to conferences, sharing results of experiments and learning about things outside of entomology but still inside agriculture.”

That gives Whitener a lot of opportunities to discover new running locations, she said.

“When I started this job, with how much travel I do I’ve had some opportunities to explore trails on the way to some of the experiments I look at,” she said.

Trilingual Emilio It was about a month after Emilio was born that his mother, Alyssa MartinezGarcia, found out he was deaf.

“We were presented with a couple options. Either leave him as is and immerse him completely in ASL and the deaf culture and then they introduced us to cochlear implants,” she said.

Their family decided that the implants Continued on page 5

Fueled by tragedy, D’Andre Vasquez strives to suceed

By Reilly Kneedler Business World staff writer

L

EAVENWORTH — Personal growth pushes D’Andre Vasquez to be better every day.

“Everyone has something that they’re going through and we have the option to let that fuel our fire or extinguish it,” he said. “I’m highly driven by success. But success for me isn’t necessarily a title, it’s personal growth and the idea of continually becoming better.”

Vasquez is 18, but he speaks and acts like someone twice his age. He’s also been through more personal tragedy and achieved more than most people three times his age.

Three years ago he lost both of his parents and his grandmother in a car accident. The wreck also broke both of his legs.

“It was a lot of physical trauma to overcome and mental trauma,” he said.

“But I think I’ve been bestowed with that mentality of ‘You can let an event fuel your fire or extinguish it.’”

But that mentality didn’t kick in right away, Vasquez said.

“I had very little motivation to go to school and very little motivation to do much of anything,” he said.

Then he found DECA, a career and technical club. The organization had just opened a chapter at Cascade High School and he decided to join.

“During my time in DECA, it’s allowed me to cope with the loss of my parents but also show me that the hard work

you put in definitely can have a great outcome,” he said. “That for me was seen in competitions before I got involved in the leadership part of it.”

He was also on the wrestling team, which helped him recover from his injuries, he said.

“It’s definitely been the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do, recovering from those two broken legs,” he said. “But that has motivated me to become very physically active and then I was able to participate in the state wrestling tournament this year.”

But his biggest motivation has always been DECA. He quickly moved up in the organization’s ranks, first as an area president for Central Washington, and then in April he was elected as the international executive president — the worldwide organization’s top student post.

“I’ll be serving as the brand’s main student ambassador, so I’ll often be hosting workshops across the states and maybe a little bit of abroad travel depending on how the schedule works out this year,” he said.

Vasquez is taking a gap year to dedicate himself fully to the position, then he’ll be attending college to study marketing and political science, he said.

“My parents were instrumental in my development,” he said. “Being a family of immigrants they came here very, very early in their lives. They left their homes and everything they knew at 16 and 18 years of age. For me, a lot of it is about honoring that sacrifice they made to give us a better opportunity for success.”

Continued from page 4 would give Emilio, who’s now 5 years old, the most benefits going forward.

“For our family, we felt it was the right decision. There were moments afterward where I was like ‘Did we really do the right thing?’ Because small little sounds will startle him or it’ll just be too much and he’ll take them off because he’s frustrated,” she said. “But now his language is taking off and he’s talking.”

Along with improving his language skills, the family is learning American Sign Language together. Now MartinezGarcia, who’s the deputy director of the YWCA, spends time most evenings practicing signing with Emilio.

“His dad’s first language is Spanish, mine is English and now we’ve got signing mixed in there so I think it’s great,” she said. “If it does end up being (trilingual) it’ll be great for him.”

They’ve spent free time taking classes in the community and have there’s a wealth of information for the deaf community in NCW, Martinez-Garcia said.

“There are so many local resources for families. We’ve had people come to our home to teach us sign and they’ve given us books and CDs and resources so we’ve really been able to grasp that,” she said. “We’re still not fluent because our focus has been so verbal and auditory for him, he knows but the basic signs and the things that he can use to supplement.”

Freedom at 170 mph In the winter, the hours would be manageable. But in the summer Cody Haag might spend 100 hours a week doing logistics work for Blue Bird Inc. That left little time for much else, he said. But Haag just got a new job at

Whitener runs along a Wenatchee Foothills Trail with her dog Remi.

Confluence Health, which will allow him to spend more time doing what he loves — riding his Yamaha R6 motorcycle 170 mph around a race track.

“My job, unfortunately, during cherry, apple and pear harvest, kept me from going more than once in the spring and once in the fall,” he said. “But I’m hoping with this new job I can go more consis-

tently … Before, working all those hours a week in agriculture, it was hard to balance. ” Haag usually takes his bike to Portland International Raceway, where racing classes are open to the public. It can be an intense experience, he said.

“You have to be on your game and very defensive,” Haag said. “You have to make sure you make the right decision because

you don’t have a lot of time to correct if you didn’t.”

But Haag doesn’t limit his ride time to just the track, it’s also his daily driver, he said.

“I’ve got the ability to disassemble it, it takes me a few hours to set it up for the racetrack and then I put it back for street use,” he said. “I prefer being on the bike in any scenario, it’s freedom.”

Over the years, I’ve drawn inspiration from many different places. I’ve been inspired by teachers, professors, coaches, and mentors, as they pushed and encouraged me to accomplish things that would not have been possible with their commitment and guidance. I would not be who I am, or where I am, without my wife and kids. I find that my wife motivates and inspires me by encouraging me in my promising endeavors, and sometimes tolerating and sometimes intervening in my not-so-promising ones. And as a new father, my kids inspire me to model the behavior that would make them proud, and that I would want them to emulate as they grow. I lost both my grandpas this past year, and they were both great men. Neither of them led “flashy” lives and you wouldn’t know of all their accomplishments and contributions by talking to them, but reading their obituaries is like a blueprint to leading a life well lived. I am inspired to be more like them.

Leadership requires accepting there are individuals who follow and trust you to make good decisions. Then making every effort to make those decisions not just for yourself, but for the good of those who follow you.

As a father, I have no greater followers than my children. Obviously, that may fade when they become adults, but between now and then, when they look at me and asks questions, eyes full of wonder and trust, the desire to be someone they can rely on both now, and when they are grown inspires me to be great every day.

That same attitude is something I apply to my career. Not that those who follow me can’t think for themselves, but they have placed a good amount of trust in my ability to lead.

They are taking a risk to join forces, to leverage their talents and futures on accomplishing a shared vision, and ultimately choosing me over someone else.

My children didn’t choose me, but in business, you always have a choice. Customer, employee, partners, patients. Who you are and what you set out to do is what inspires others to follow.

Of course, none of this would be possible without my beautiful wife, whose encouragement and support have enabled my success so far. Without her I’d be lost!

I draw inspiration from my grandmother, who adopted and raised me as her daughter. A nurse, and an immigrant from Mexico in the 70s, she came to the U.S. with no English, a nursing career she could not use here, and the hope to raise her family in this beautiful country. A survivor of abuse and domestic violence, she became one of the first grassroots organizers for the Latino community in Wenatchee. After the door being shut on her for not speaking English when requesting baptism for my father (an infant at the time), she was responsible for bringing the first of many Spanish language church services to the local parish. After mastering her english skills, she worked in the new migrant-student program as a coordinator for the Wenatchee School District, bridging the gap between the educational system and migrant families in the valley. She cultivated relationships and advocated for her community. Many grown men and women still remember her today as their mentor, teacher, and friend. She has taught me the value of family, culture, and hard work. She inspires me to love, give freely, and has led by example. Now in her late 70s and unable to work and do the things she loves most, I dedicate everything I do to both my Latino community and to mi mama.

I hope that she knows that the work I am able to do each day through YWCA ncw and in my own life is only because of the leadership skills she has instilled in me.

I started out as a biochemist working at NASA Langley. From my first day on base, I was around women engineers of all ages, serving in a variety of roles — the head of my program office, the aeronautics project manager that stepped up as my mentor, the chemical engineer I shared an office with. As much as I knew there must be women engineers out there in the world, it was a very different experience witnessing them in action — solving very complex engineering problems, managing large technical teams, and directing entire programs. I suddenly had a dozen role models that were like me in some way and actively encouraging me to get involved in the missions they were passionate about. Their enthusiasm was infectious, and they made sure there was a path available to anyone who wanted to jump on board.

Outside work Being a new dad, I am very passionate about my kids. I enjoy taking walks with them, trips to the park, reading and signing songs. I very much enjoy sports, and have participated in many city sports leagues (softball, volleyball, basketball, kickball, bowling), I snowboard, run an occasional marathon, hike from time to time and enjoy golf. I have an entrepreneurial spirit and am usually tinkering with a few investments or business ideas as side gigs. Currently, I own and run a small website and am actively working on another one. I always have a few diy projects going as well … whether it’s swapping out the engine of a broken-down car, remodeling a bathroom, or building a landscaping wall.

I love learning how to do something new and then doing it! When none of those things are happening, my wife and I like to travel, with our favorite destination to date being iceland, and hawaii a close second!

Outside work I’m passionate about the idea of competition.

It’s something that’s been driving me since I was very young. I’ve always considered competition equally important on the team level, and individual level.

Growing up, I played every sport my mom would allow. I always knew I had to push myself for the team to win. I wanted to be the best, sure, but I wanted to be the best so that our team could be the best, the success of the team was always a small victory of my own. Of course, as you grow older, you become more aware of your capabilities and limitations. You learn how to ask for help and see the synergistic nature of teamwork. But it’s the passion for competition that keeps pushing me forward.

Outside work I am most and equally passionate about family unification, and about the deaf and hard of hearing community. My son, who is now 5 years old was born completely deaf and at 1 year old, we chose to allow him to receive cochlear implants. He now can hear, speak, and be a part of both the hearing and deaf community if he chooses to do so. I am passionate about advocating for families with deaf or hard of hearing family members. I am also equally passionate about keeping families together. I know firsthand the pain of being an immigrant family with family separated between two countries. A family of 6, with two small children here in the United States and two young stepchildren in another country, we have been working on immigrating them here for over 4 years. Survivors of abuse and abandonment, they deserve to be here with their little brothers, their father and myself. They deserve their family.

The pain of not being able to comfort them, the worry of them being subjected to violence, drugs, or death is at times unbearable for my husband and I. We will continue to work hard to unite our family, and I know that our situation is not unique. Many families today face similar hardships. I have faith in and believe in the democracy and freedom that our country stands for, and I believe that families belong together. I am committed to advocating for these changes and urge others to share their stories in order to do the same.

Outside work Several counties in Washington state have water conservancy boards. Conservancy boards are volunteer boards of three to five members that can process change applications to water rights within their county and make a preliminary recommendation the department of ecology. This helps ecology manage a large backlog of change applications. There are some substantial training requirements and time commitments involved, but conservancy boards are a great way to stay plugged in to water availability locally and to get a glimpse into ecology’s work process in regulating state water rights.

I saw a band perform and there was moment where the bassist and guitarist exchanged a look and the whole tone of the music changed and evolved. All I could think of is “how did they do that?” That kicked off a seven-year journey of faking my way through a bass player audition only knowing four notes on my fretboard, being the only adult in a six-month long guitar lesson series populated with hyper critical 9-year olds, and a stint as the drummer for a band called “run fast, we only know 3 songs” that exclusively performed at 5K run events.

My partner is a dedicated hobbyist woodworker and I’m full of ideas with very little of the patience required to sand a block of wood with ten types of sandpaper. With his help, I love building guitars and restoring my weird pawn shop finds. I enjoy learning about the hobbyist builders who created the iconic guitars that have stuck around for 70 years. There are “vintage correct” paint finishes on some 1950s guitars that sell for ten of thousands of dollars, but when you dig into the story behind them, you’ll find the builder was just looking to cut costs and grabbed a pallet of old paint leftover from unpopular car colors from the next door auto shop’s garbage can. There’s something great about that.

Marketing and Operations Coordinator Pybus Public Market

Inspiration At Pybus Market, I am inspired by serving the community in Wenatchee and being a part of creating a platform for local nonprofits, businesses, artisans, musicians, and artists to share what they love with others. I especially enjoy working with local organizations to plan and execute events for the community to enjoy and benefit from. One event that I really enjoy planning is Nonprofit Day, where we host over 40 local nonprofit organizations in NCW. Each organization has a booth and gets the opportunity to promote their organization and recruit volunteers. It’s events like these that make me feel fulfilled in the work that I am doing.

Outside work I am an avid skier in the winter and enjoy river rafting as well as hiking with my dog and biking the Loop in the summer — pretty much taking advantage of what Wenatchee has to offer!

I also enjoy coaching a girls youth soccer team in the spring and the fall.

Inspiration My parents have always been my inspiration as to where I got my work ethic from so they do deserve a lot of credit in that they are a large percentage of the reason why I am where I am today. These days, my wife encourages me every day to be the better person and do the best job I can.

Outside work I enjoy riding motorcycles on the street and love to be able to ride on the race track.

Something about traveling 170 mph on the front stretch, waiting until the last minute to roll off the throttle and begin the most aggressive, abrupt and controlled down shift anyone will ever do to make the very sharp 40 mph corner.

I draw my inspiration from my parents, Keith and Michele Parker, and from my faith in Christ.

My parents were always really strong supporters of my education, and definitely encouraged me to become a lifelong learner. When we were little, they took my siblings and me to the library all the time and told us we could check out whatever we could carry, which meant we left with giant, teetering piles of books every time.

Thanks to them, I love learning and I especially love reading good stories!

At the age of 15, I was involved in a tragic car accident that claimed the life of both of my parents, my grandmother and left me with two broken legs.

This has been the single most defining moment in my life. However, the sacrifices that my parents made when immigrating from Mexico, the values and morals that they bestowed in me, and the fact that they left me too soon, have been my motivation to always strive for success. This has fueled my fire and pushed me not only to want to better myself but also my family, my school, my fellow Latinos, my community and ultimately our great nation.

Outside work Outside of work and reading, I’m most passionate about sharing the love of Jesus as a volunteer Young Life leader for high school students. I also love gardening and being active outdoors with my husband cameron, and our dog, appa. We love to hang out at the dog park and go running, hiking, fishing, and hunting.

Outside work Service!!! I love serving and giving back to those that have invested so much in my journey.

The most notable way I give back is through volunteer coaching. In my spare time, I enjoy coaching soccer and wrestling both at the club and middle school levels! When not coaching, I can be found on the sidelines cheering-on these programs and their rising athletes.

I have two little girls, Lena and Sage, who are my constant source of motivation (and laughter!). I want to set an example for them to love and care for others, to be kind and respectful, to work hard, stay positive, and stand up for what they believe in. I am well aware that my girls are watching and learning from everything I do, mostly because I hear what I tell them when they repeat it back to me — facial expression and all! They inspire me to be the best combination of full-time nurse, full-time wife, full-time mom, and sometimes I even get to be a friend! I have a big support system from my husband, my kids, my family, my coworkers, my bosses, and my friends. They keep me going!

I am inspired by the people I see everyday, taking the actions they’re able to, to have a positive impact on the world around them, whether it is through teaching, political activism, environmental action, or otherwise. I am inspired by those I see doing what they’re able to do to make a positive difference. Making a difference or creating change can be an overwhelming prospect, but those people who are doing things daily inspire and encourage me to consider what I can be doing daily, big and small.

When I see others work hard and genuinely care about the work that they do it inspires me to follow in their footsteps and direct an organization that is truly there for their community.

There are men and women in the environmental field that have years of experience working with people and the outdoors, they’re all very kind, they love their job, and I want to continue to surround myself with them. I also draw inspiration from the memory of my younger self wanting to explore the mountains and hike through the forest but not having the knowledge or equipment to do so. I felt stuck in the city and I hope to be there for the families that have the same desire that I had.

In education it’s easy to find inspiration from the staff and students. I have been an employee in Wenatchee School District for six years, and I still haven’t found a teacher that does not work hard, or a student not worth going the extra mile for. We have an incredible community of passionate people that want the best for the next generation, and you will not find a better place where that energy and enthusiasm resides than our public schools.

Outside work Outside of the workplace most of my time is focused on my husband, Jordan, our two girls and our Boston terrier, barkley. It’s true what they say about kids growing up so fast, and I feel like they are learning so much every day I can’t keep up. I am obsessed with watching them grow and being there to support them with that process. I also love crafting and making things for other people, reading, spending time with my family and friends and sleeping!

Outside work Outside of work, I spent much of my time outdoors. I love exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest through hiking and backpacking, as well as getting out locally on foot and bike to enjoy the trails around Wenatchee and Leavenworth. I like cooking, especially using locally grown produce. Spending time with my family is important to me, including my sweet, adopted cat! As my summer schedules allow, I’ve spent one week out of the summer for several summers, volunteering with Camp Ukandu, being part of the team facilitating a week of “outrageous fun” for pediatric oncology patients and their siblings near Portland, Oregon.

Outside work This year, outside of the workplace I am focusing on sustaining my personal relationships with my family and friends and reducing my impact on the environment. I’ve always known that using plastic containers and purchasing materials that I do not need was creating too much waste, but this year I have truly changed my actions and become consistent with them.

I share my efforts with my family, friends, and the families I interact with at work and hope they will slowly act as well. I am not living a zero-waste life, but I feel proud of the many sustainable methods I’ve adopted.

I am amazed at the bravery shown by sexual assault survivors I work with every day. Their ability to stand up to their abusers in a system that questions their trauma daily is awe inspiring.

I’ve found inspiration and encouragement in teachers, professors and mentors throughout my education and my current career. Educators here in the Wenatchee Valley, in Washington state and abroad have had significant impacts on my academic education and character.

I would say that I draw inspiration from kindness, my own children, and the stranger’s person who I encounter that remind me what it’s like to on the receiving end of that kindness or great customer service.

Outside work

Outside of work I would say I am most passionate about my family as I am a mother of 4 children, who range in ages 15 to 5. I enjoy my new-found profession as it allows me the time to spend with my children & family. I also enjoy photography and baking.

Outside work I am fascinated by all things food, travel, and wine. My fiancé and I are passionate travelers. I have visited 30-plus countries thus far. I am also a Level 1 Sommelier through the Vourt of Master Sommeliers and hope to achieve full certification in the next year. We love cooking meals at home and trying new recipes from around the world.

I am always in search of our next travel destination or next great meal!

I am most passionate about how our community interacts with the environment, and how this impacts access to outdoor recreation. I serve on the board of Wenatchee Valley tread (trails, recreation, education, advocacy, and development), am a member of Run Wenatchee, and frequently run, hike and backpack on local trails in Chelan and Douglas County. I believe trails are for everyone and have enjoyed advocating for trail users of all kinds in our community!

Outside work

Outside work Outside of work my favorite way to spend time is enjoying the great outdoors with family and friends. We live in such a beautiful area, so if I’m not in a school building, then you can find me working in the yard, camping, playing golf, out on the river, hiking, mountain biking, or snowboarding. I have found that being away from technology and doing outdoor activities with those closest to me is the most relaxing and restorative way to spend free time. Stephanie and I are passionate about raising our three daughters to use their imaginations and play outside, participate in sports, and spend limited time sitting on a couch looking at screens (unless it’s movie night!). My work in education is very important, but remembering to give the same time and energy to our marriage and to our kids is something we consistently focus on. Life is good!

Growing up in the Wenatchee Valley, I have been inspired by 3 generations of family who have invest themselves in the agricultural industry. As a young professional, I have a greater understanding and appreciation for their passion both for this valley and the larger agricultural community surrounding it. It is inspiring to work in the agriculture industry and the consumer product industry, both are full of exciting challenges and opportunity. In my role at Crunch Pak, I have to opportunity to work with a group of talented individuals who are innovating the way society consumes fruits and veggies.

I draw inspiration from friends and family that make up my community. They provide an example of a thoughtful and balanced life. All are active volunteers, passionate about their jobs, they lead by example, inspire, and encourage me to do my very best.

My husband, Kyle, and my kids, Wyatt and Colton, give me inspiration and motivation to be the best individual possible. I aspire to be a leader in my community so my kids can follow in my footsteps because they are the future of this great community we live in.

Farzan Farivar, Wade Detillian and Leslie Findlay have been the foundation of my Right of Way career. They each played a key roll in shaping me into the professional I am today.

They identified my strengths and unique abilities as an asset to this industry and I am beginning to do the same with individuals I am training.

Outside work Outside of the workplace, I enjoy having an athletic lifestyle, travelling, reading, and being involved in my community. Whether it be to start ups, healthcare, recreational activities, or the arts this community has something for everyone, and I enjoy being a part of it and giving back.

Outside work Outside of the workplace, I am excited about our volunteering in the community and the good that happens bringing it together! Wenatchee is a very special place, and it is wonderful to be able to celebrate that with others and embrace the diversity of our valley.

Outside work I am most passionate about volunteering in our valley. I have had the opportunity to be a leader volunteering with an amazing group of local women called Women’s Service League of North Central Washington. I have led a group of women to complete many projects such as collecting diapers for children in need, building Thanksgiving dinner baskets, giving away coats to kids and collecting toiletries. We have also raised money at My Girlfriend’s Closet events, made hot meals for those in need of a helping hand and given away prom dresses to countless students in our valley. All of these events have helped families in need in North Central Washington. I am extremely passionate about this organization and will continue to be involved with this amazing group of women in the future.

Outside work I enjoy spending my free time with my husband, young boys (7 and 4) and house full of pets (three dogs, two birds, and a tortoise). We are always on the go with soccer, hockey, outdoor recreation and church activities. I help coach the WAHA youth hockey and provide back up to my husband’s soccer coaching. We also spend a lot of time at our family property in Leavenworth and like to stay connected to that community.

Although both of Peter’s parents have been strong, positive influences in his life, his mother Laura Olson is an especially inspiring woman. Her hard work, determination, sacrifice, compassion, and perseverance through tough times as a single mother, make her a role model and someone Peter tries to emulate. Laura worked three part-time jobs to put Peter and his two brothers through high school. Even though she was busy and money was tight, Laura made time between jobs to cook meals, make sure the boys all did their homework, and get everyone to soccer practice (more or less) on time.

My father has always worked hard to provide us with everything we need. He has encouraged me to experience as much of the world as possible, and taught me many mechanical skills through various projects. He taught me about a job worth doing, is worth doing well, and that shortcuts do not save time if the quality is going to suffer. My father has always inspired me to be the best that I can be, and to give all my effort.

I have so many wonderful people and opportunities in my life that inspire me but my mom, my best friend (Kate Taylor), my husband and my children all come to the top of the list for inspiration. Without my mom I wouldn’t be who I am. A classic saying but it couldn’t be truer.

She is my biggest supporter and the person who provided me with a solid base to grow on. I grew up showing horses which in my adult life I have realized was an opportunity many don’t have. My husband and children inspire me every day. They inspire me to be healthy, happy and enjoy these moments that go by so fast. My children are so challenging and fun and draining and rewarding all at once. Being a mom is the most exhausting job on the planet. I will be the first to admit that but when I take a step back and look at how lucky I am I see inspiration to be the best mom I can be.

Both of my grandmothers had the opportunity to go to college. Knowing that they accomplished such a feat during the WWII-era is something I often reflect on. While their education played a significant role on their careers, their family and community had an even greater one.

Their community involvement was something inherited by my parents then shared with me.

The inspiration I got from my family resulted in a career that focuses on investing in your own community by giving back.

Outside work Besides his passion for statistics, data science, and other nerdy things, Peter has shared interests with his fiancée, Kyleen, and their rescue pit-bull named Paxton. Together they are interested in exploring the Pacific Northwest’s campgrounds, hiking trails, ski hills, and swimming holes. They are excited about being first-time homebuyers, too. All three are happy to settle down in this lovely valley and make Wenatchee home!

Outside work I find the most joy in new and challenging adventures. Having fun in Class III rapids and flying high above the valley while paragliding have been some of my favorite adventures.

Working hard to gain a new skillset, and enough experience to be safe has driven my passions to new levels. Not a week goes by that I don’t dream of being on the river or up in the air.

Outside work I am most passionate about helping those that I love. My family and my friends are so important to me and I would move mountains for each one of them. I love being able to step up and help a friend whether it’s watching their children or bring a meal to a sick friend.

Outside work Outside of the workplace, I am most passionate about gardening. Doing projects in the backyard grounds me and brings me back to earth (puns intended). I’m lucky that my husband, Matthew, indulges my frequent plant purchases and landscaping ideas.

I am inspired by a man who has been like a father to me for 20 years, Scott Carpenter. Scott is the sole financial provider for his family. He recently experienced a very big medical scare, where he was life-flighted to Seattle for intensive care. He has fought hard for his health and has mentioned more than once how he would go through it all over again for his family’s sake if he had to. I am inspired by him because he is willing to sacrifice and fight for what he believes in. I wish to exhibit his professionalism, success, and ultimately his selflessness in my own life.

My main inspiration has always been the desire to be able to provide for myself. I never wanted to be the kind of person to make excuses or say I couldn’t do something. Throughout my life I was told that I was too young to achieve some of my goals, that I needed experience which came with age. Nothing inspires a person more than being told they can’t and it sure has been an inspiration for me. I don’t want to be the person that tells someone else why they can’t do something. I hope to be the person others look at as an example that they “can” achieve any goal.

My kids and wife are super inspiring for me.

We have come a long way and have grown so much together. Love to see my daughters look up to their mom and feel proud and empowered to be Latina women in the U.S. My wife has been my rock during just about half of my life; I will always admire and respect that. I feel so blessed to be able to share my life with such amazing, talented, smart and beautiful woman.

Our daughters will grow up to be just as talented as their mom is. My girls are the most amazing, precious gift this life has given me. My daughters have taught me more than I could ever teach them, they are simply amazing. If that doesn’t inspire you I’m not sure what would.

Outside work

Thankfully what I am most passionate about in the workplace is also my passion outside of the workplace. I am passionate about justice and equality. I believe in fighting for what is right. I believe that everyone deserves a chance, and I want to do what I can to ensure that all get the chance they deserve.

The last couple years I have really worked on my work/life balance. A year ago I purchased my first home and shortly after I adopted 2 kittens, Steve and Della. Last November I also adopted my dog Frazier. My biggest passion is my pets and making sure they live a long and healthy life.

Outside work I’m most passionate about making a difference in my community. Being able to share valuable information with diverse community groups.

Receiving feedback when you are paying at the grocery store, “are you Mario with the PUD? I heard you on the Spanish radio, thank you for sharing information, thank you for making us feel included.” Continuing to create awareness, continue to advocate for inclusion, equity, diversity. We all belong, we all deserve to be informed and feel empowered to make our own decisions and speak up when needed.

I was inspired by two of my elementary teachers, Robin Gahringer (who is still teaching first grade and in the same classroom in Orondo) and Robert Bowman who is now a principal in Sunnyside. I remember being in their classrooms and having so much fun! It made me sad to think that one day I wouldn’t be in a classroom anymore, so I thought, “hey, why not become a teacher and make kids feel the same way I did?

I have yet to try teaching upper grades but for now I am happy to make a difference for my little 6- and 7-year-olds in first grade!

I’ve always been drawn to motivational leaders, those who are able to help you see the world with new perspective. It is critical to surround yourself with people who motivate you to be your best. My wife, Jana, has always been a massive source of encouragement. Being a part of the leadership team at Grace City Church has been instrumental in shaping my approach to relationships, work and the community at large. I have also been fortunate to work with many outstanding leaders within Confluence Health who have helped me in this capacity.

Dr. Moseley has served as a mentor and points me in the direction of national thought leaders who advocate for a better health care system.

Listening to speeches and presentations of leaders like Don Berwick, Gilbert Welch and John Ionnidis help frame my way of thinking and keep me centered on what great, affordable, evidence-based care really looks like. Steve Setter, geriatric pharmacotherapy professor at Washington State University, needs to be mentioned as well. He spoke bluntly about true risks and benefits of medication therapy and helped explain the U.S. health system and big pharma’s current tendency to often exaggerate the potential benefits and underemphasize the potential risks of these therapies.

My parents were amazing and instrumental in laying a solid foundation on which to build my life on. They encouraged me in every way they could to be the man I was called to be. I’m incredibly grateful for the many people who have been there to encourage, guide and push me along in life’s journey. The investments we make in others are one of the truest forms of leadership. I feel blessed by those who have chosen to make deposits in my life.

Outside work Outside the workplace I am passionate about spending quality family time with my husband, 2 boys, and 3 dogs. I love it when I find the time to read books for pleasure, I very much enjoy sewing (my new hobby that I am still learning), and also I love photography!! I have my own photography business which in reality means so much more to me than it just being a business. It is an art. I love capturing precious moments for others and editing photos to create extra special effects that my clients will cherish forever. When I named my business I had two things in mind.

I wanted to show people’s expressions along with allowing my clients to relive those precious moments again and again when they see their photos. I meshed those two words together and came up with “Xprecious” Photography!! I would love to expand my business one day and be able to travel around the world to do destination weddings and other events! Only time will tell but I do hope that one day it will be a possibility!

Outside work I moved to Wenatchee two weeks after my daughter, Genevieve, was born. For the last three years, I’ve been in a season where most of my time is spent at work or with my family. It’s been a sweet time of putting off a lot of the other things which used to compete for my time and attention and focus on the people that matter most to me. We have another little one on the way. As a family, we love camping! Our ’94 Jayco tent trailer is getting some great usage around the Pacific Northwest. As time and life allows, I love playing and making music, golfing, climbing mountains, bowling, canoeing and running.

After some renovation in the early 2000s, the building currently houses around 25 subsidized apartments and seven small businesses, according to its real estate agent Tom LaVigne.

About one-third of the building, 15,000 square feet, remains undeveloped, LaVigne said. A large basement accounts for much of that space.

LaVigne said he has received around half a dozen inquiries about the space since it was listed in mid-June.

“It’s probably one of the larger things for sale here, just in financial numbers,” LaVigne said. “The parties that are interested are from places like Seattle and local.”

Guest Column

H

ow many times have you tried to change something about yourself? Or maybe about how you operate your business?

Or anything else for that matter? Usually the change makes sense to our rational mind,

By Cheri but unfortunately our mind is only Dudek-Kuhn rational half of the equation. We CEO and also have our emotional Professional mind. This combination EOS is often referred to as the Implementer Elephant and the Rider.

The Rider is the rational half of your brain that understands and often wants the change. The Elephant is your emotional half and likes things to stay the same because change can be scary. The push and pull often ends in a stalemate, or worse, backsliding.

How can we get the Rider and Elephant on the same page? Dan and Chip Heath explore that in their book, “Switch.” The Heath brothers delve into a variety of tools and disciplines that:

Looking for bright spots direct the rider, motivate the elephant and shape the path. Today we will pursue one tool used to direct the Rider-bright spots.

Our Riders are problem-solvers.

They like to see the world as a series of problems to be unearthed and solved.

Our Rider and Elephant can be in agreement: we both are emotionally and intellectually driven to make a change or find a solution. But our Rider’s default setting is to identify what the problem is and then solve it. What if we could convince her to take a different approach? What if instead of focusing on what’s not working, she focused on what IS working?

Dan and Chip refer to this as looking for bright spots. In 1990, the Save the Children foundation had limited time and even more limited resources to solve a huge malnutrition problem among the children of Vietnam. The big, obvious problems — poverty, sanitation, clean water, ignorance regarding nutrition — would require far more time and money than the organization had available.

So instead, the team went out into the villages to look for bright spots:

families who had healthy children.

After eliminating options that could not be replicated (family members in the government who could supply the family with additional rations, for example), the group discovered differences in how these mothers fed their children (three times per day instead of twice, but with the same amount of food and adding sweet potato greens and shrimp normally only fed to adults). These bright spots laid the foundation that allowed sweeping changes throughout the region.

We have recently embarked on this approach at Orchard Corset. Instead of ruminating over all-too-often low conversion rates, we are looking to put our energies into deciphering why on some days we have killer conversion rates. What can be duplicated and what are just one-off events, like a media mention? This leads to much richer conversations and opens up new ideas and ways to look at our business.

This approach works well in instances where you have few successes-bright spots-in what is otherwise a widespread problem in your organization or department.

For example, when a handful of salespeople are exceeding their numbers regularly when most are struggling. As opposed to setting your Rider to find the problems and faults with what’s not working, you may get much further by instead focusing on what is working, on the bright spots.

Ask yourself and/or your team, what is that person or group doing that is different than the rest? Can it be replicated? Sometimes the smallest tweak in a process will have a profound impact on the outcome.

What are the bright spots in your business? In your interactions with your children or spouse? Or your vacations?

What about your workouts? The possibilities are endless. Direct your Rider to find the bright spots and dig into what sets those apart. Do a deep dive and determine what you can duplicate or replicate to make more bright spots.

Business Roundup Continued from page 13 legislators to talk about them supporting us getting that authority,” Kuntz said in an interview after the meeting. “Then it’ll be talking with some people in Olympia about formatting our case.”

The ports are still very early in the process, so it’s unknown when a tax measure might be put on the ballot. The early proposal is for a 1/10 of 1 percent tax on sales in the two counties. That would amount to $0.03 on a $25 purchase.

That tax could bring in around $3 million a year, according to port documents. Currently, the majority of each port’s revenue comes from a property tax.

“I think these two ports have been really responsible with their property tax and have limited it,” Kuntz said. “But, because of that, we need an additional resource if Pangborn is going to become a regional asset that everybody wants it to be.”

Port commissioners from the two counties voted June 11 to functionally consolidate their organizations, a model

that allows the day-to-day operations to merge but doesn’t require a public vote.

It’s the first consolidation of its kind in Washington state, Kuntz said.

The authority held its first commission meeting July 16 to review the logistics that need to be figured out before it starts operating on Jan. 1, 2020.

Officials hope cost savings from the new organization will help offset the airport’s roughly $500,000-per-year operations deficit.

Vail breaks ground on multi-million dollar Stevens Pass upgrades STEVENS PASS — Vail Resorts has owned Stevens Pass Mountain Resort for less than a year but the global resort conglomerate is already making big upgrades.

The company broke ground this spring on a project to replace the Brooks and Daisy chairlifts, and re-grade the base area around Brooks.

It’s part of a $35 million-dollar capital investment in four of Vail’s newest

Congratulations Alyssa Martinez-Garcia

A Wenatchee native and mother of 4 boys, Alyssa Martinez-Garcia is a graduate of Central Washington University with a B.A. in Public Relations and a minor in Latino Studies.

Martinez-Garcia has worked in the non-profit sector as marketing intern and program coordinator. Alyssa, who first joined YWCA NCW as the community relations manager in 2015, also has worked for the organization as a consultant for the organization for over a year, and began her role in October 2018 as Deputy Director.

“I am absolutely honored to have the opportunity to serve those in our community who most need our support in this new capacity.” said Martinez-Garcia. “It is a privilege to work for an organization that does so much to empower women and families in our region.”

resorts: Stevens Pass, Okemo Mountain Resort in Vermont, Mount Sunapee in New Hampshire and Crested Butte Mountain Resort in Colorado.

Vail Resorts announced in June of 2018 its plan to purchase Stevens Pass for $67 million. Soon after, the company began to assess how it could upgrade the mountain’s facilities, resort General Manager Tom Pettigrew said.

“Once the actual purchase occurred in mid September, (the planning) began in earnest,” he said. “‘How can we most affect the guest experience on hill?’ It became pretty clear that the terrain under the Brooks chairlift is amazing intermediate-level or upper-beginnerlevel terrain, yet it was served by a slow, double-chair. So that was a logical decision to improve that.”

Over winter, the team began planning the revamp and construction began right after the 2018-19 season ended. Once completed, both Brooks and Daisy will be faster and have higher passenger capacities.

“They’re brand new. They’re from Doppelmayr, which is an Austrian

manufacturer,” Pettigrew said. “Every chairlift is a custom device because they’re different lengths and then there’s the amount of vertical they have to climb up. There’s also the terrain they have to move across.”

Both are expected to be ready by early December, Pettigrew said.

“They have to be more than done then.

They have to be done, inspected, signedoff on, operated and all those things,” he said. “Our handoff date is mid-November, that’s when the chairlifts are given to us and that’s when we’ll have the inspections.”

The company plans to keep making upgrades at Stevens Pass over the next few years, Pettigrew said.

We may think it impossible to give that employee a raise because of mediocre performance, or because we just can’t afford it. But could there be circumstances when a raise is possible, even desirable? u If that person works in sales, would a significant increase in sales justify a raise? u Regardless of the job they hold, are there areas of their performance that, if significantly improved, justify a raise?

In other words, rather than saying “no” and ending the conversation under unpleasant terms, explore what it would take to make it possible with a win/win for both parties.

“I cannot give you any raise right now, but I would be willing to work with you to make it so the answer would be yes in the future, But it will take hard work on your part. Are you interested in this?”

Not only set a more cooperative mood, it also helps the employee understand under what circumstances a raise is possible.

Similarly, a 10 percent discount might hurt, but are their circumstances when it would be possible? u If the customer significantly increased the size of their order, would that make a 10% discount work? u If they took delivery during your slow period, would that help? u What if they took it with no packaging, or picked up the order at your place of business, or gave you a positive review on social media?

“We’ve already given you a really great price on your order, but if we can make some changes to quantities and delivery schedules, I might be able to reduce the price. Is that of interest to you?”

This concept applies when you are the one making the request as well. If your question is greeted with a “no,” try asking, “Under what circumstances could you say yes?”

Even if a compromise is not possible — even if a win/win answer cannot be found — the conversation can end with a more positive feeling, recognizing that both parties did their best to find a workable solution.

Some ways you can avoid, or at least postpone, saying no: u Do not answer the question too quickly; give it proper consideration u Listen. Ask questions. Make sure you understand the position the other person is taking, and why. Sometimes the request being made is actually an indicator of something deeper. u If the person you are negotiating with is not the owner of the company, try to delicately ascertain how their supervisor measures their success. For some, price might be everything, but for others it might be quality, or delivery time, or inventory turns. Use this information to structure a transaction that gives them success but keeps you intact as well. u Similarly, if an employee is asking for higher pay, it can be that they simply need more money, or they may feel their performance warrants a raise, or they may be seeking recognition for their hard work. Knowing their motivations helps you understand what you might be able to do to meet their needs.

DON’T SETTLE FOR AVERAGE.

WENATCHEE AMONG BEST METRO AREAS IN U.S

(509) 662-2100

By Sebastian Moraga The first-ever Most Dynamic Metropolitans study by the Walton Family Foundation of Bentonville, Ark. ranked the Wenatchee Valley as the 16th best metro area in the nation.

®

The foundation, started by the founders of Walmart, Sam and Helen Walton, released the study in June and ranked 370 metropolitan areas by a variety of standards, including job growth, average annual earnings and gross domestic product gains, plus the proportion of total jobs at young firms.

135 N. Mission St., Wenatchee

The study highlighted the Wenatchee Valley’s status as one of the few metro areas ranked high nationally while not depending on the high-tech manufacturing and services industries.

Our family is here to care for yours

The study referred to this area as “Wenatchee” despite being a study on metropolitan areas, which tend to include more than one municipality. Furthermore, the statistics used in the study measured the population of the entire Valley.

The study defined a metropolitan statistical area as “a region having a large population nucleus with an adjacent population bearing a strong degree of economic and social interaction.” Also, when measuring the “Wenatchee” entry, the study mentioned regional features and assets like Flywheel and Mission Ridge.

The study ranked the entry titled as Wenatchee in 43rd place in short-term economic growth and 75th in medium-term growth measures. Conversely, it ranked as the area with the highest intensity of employment in fruit and nut tree farming of any metro area in the U.S. and the fifth highest total employment in that industry.

Wenatchee’s young-firm employment stood 1.5 standard deviations above the national average.

900 N. Western Ave. • Wenatchee, WA 509.662.2797 • www.riverwestretirement.org

Don’t forget to call your Mom.

“That’s impressive for an economy so dependent on the mature agriculture industry,” the study stated, also underlining our Valley’s increased diversification, with agriculture industry stalwarts like Stemilt and CMI being joined by Pybus, multiple wineries, the cryptocurrency business and a growing startup community.

“The Wenatchee metro was not a standout in any single category, but it performed well in all of them,” the study stated.

The study’s statistics ranged from 6 years old (medium job growth) to 1 year old (shortterm job momentum.) Top ranking went to Midland, Texas, halfway between Fort Worth and El Paso.

Spots 2-10 went to San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara in California, Midland, (Mich.), Elkhart-Goshen, (Ind.), Bend-Redmond, (Ore.), St. George, (Utah,) Austin-Round Rock, (Texas), Greeley, (Colo.), San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward, (Calif.), and Seattle-TacomaBellevue, (Wash.)

Sports 11-20 went to Reno, (Nev.), Provo-Orem, (Utah), Lake Charles, (La.), Fort Collins, (Colo.), Gainesville, (Ga.), Wenatchee, Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers (Ark. and Mo.), Naples-Immokalee-Marco Island, (Fla.), Cape Coral-Fort Myers, (Fla.), and Boise, Idaho.

Spot No. 21 went to another Washington area: Mount Vernon-Anacortes.

Obesity in now a protected impairment

ew discrimination cases and allegations saturate our news feeds almost every day. Discriminatory practices can lead to eye-popping civil liability and you would be hard-pressed to find

By Devon a businessperson in this valley who doesn’t Gray respect the dangers Wenatchee of discrimination, attorney particularly in the employment context.

But what actually constitutes discrimination is a quickly changing landscape, filled with traps (call them land mines) for the unwary. Discrimination law (employment law specifically) is confusing and characterized by often nebulous standards and requirements — an undeniable boon for plaintiff-side litigators and the bane of even the best-natured employers. It is remarkably complicated because it involves complex and interwoven state and federal statutory schemes. And it is experiencing an evolution, quickly

expanding in an attempt to address cultural shifts on both the state and federal levels.

Our state has embraced this evolution quicker than most.

Washington’s Law Against Discrimination (“WLAD”) is (and has always been) generally more protective than federal discrimination law. It prohibits discrimination on a number of bases including the presence of any physical disability or “impairment.”

On July 11, 2019 the Washington Supreme Court held that obesity is a disability protected by the WLAD. The 7-2 majority used some noticeably categorical language, explaining that “obesity always qualifies as an impairment under the [WLAD] because it is recognized by the medical community as a ‘physiological disorder, or condition’…. if an employer refuses to hire someone because the employer perceives the applicant to have obesity, and the applicant is able to properly perform the job in question, the employer violates the section of the WLAD.” Strong language bookmarking a murky standard.

After the Supreme Court’s opinion, it is clear that employers cannot refuse to hire someone or fire someone because they are obese. Stated otherwise, obese employees are protected from employment decisions based exclusively on their obesity. Employers need not hire or continue employing someone who, as a result of obesity, is unable to properly perform the position — i.e. cannot meet a “bona fide occupational qualification.” But employers must be prepared to adopt “reasonable accommodations” for such individuals unless doing so would constitute an “undue hardship.” What constitutes a “bona fide occupational qualification” or a “reasonable accommodation” or even an “undue hardship” is where things get hazy.

Since this is a business publication, the logical question is: “What should employers do now?” The answer isn’t easy; every employer is different and the Supreme Court’s opinion will have wide-ranging impacts on everything from hiring practices to day-to-day operations. But my three-fold general recommendation is as follows: First, if you haven’t already, get Employment

Practices Liability Insurance. It pays in spades if you ever find yourself in litigation. Second, take a long hard look at your current policies. Two of the best things employers can do are (1) adopt clear and concise policies regarding hiring, firing, and accommodation practices, and (2) apply those policies strictly and uniformly to all similarly situated employees. Third (and finally), arrange trainings for your team. The best way to avoid a discrimination lawsuit is to teach your people how to do their jobs without discriminating.

Employers should take steps now to determine how this new legal ruling will impact their business. To learn more about this change and what you can do to ensure your business is in compliance, contact me (Devon Gray) or another attorney at JDSA Law. We are here to help.

Business Roundup Continued from page 15 according to the release.

“We are very excited about our new partnership with Jerry’s Auto Supply,” NAPA General Manager Brian Keene said in the release. “Both NAPA Auto Parts and Jerry’s have been in the market for over 50 years.”

Council approves cryptocurrency code changes WENATCHEE — The City Council on July 11 approved changes to cryptocurrency rules, including a prohibition on mining in residential areas.

Mining will be allowed in industrial zones. It will also be allowed in commercial zones, but not in the first 50 feet of a building’s ground floor.

State noise limits, which vary by zone, will apply to the operations. Applicants must demonstrate compliance with the standards and guarantee that they wouldn’t exceed the limits.

The changes also broaden the definition of cryptocurrency mining and add a definition for data centers.

Cryptocurrency mining operations and data centers will be required to blend in as much as possible with surrounding properties.

Some rules, including requiring approval of mining operations from Chelan County PUD and the state Department of Labor and Industries, still apply.

Pybus cheese shop regains ‘Cheesemonger’ name WENATCHEE — The cheese shop in Pybus Public Market has regained the “Cheesemonger” name as it transfered to new ownership last month.

John Pistoresi has purchased both the Cheesemonger’s Shop in Leavenworth and the Pybus store from Barb and Dave

Hambleton, according to a press release from Pybus.

After Pistoresi purchased the Leavenworth location a few years ago, the Hambletons continued to operate the Pybus location but changed the name to “Pybus Cheese Shoppe,” said Pybus Executive Director Steve Robinson.

Now that Pistoresi owns both shops, the Pybus location will again be operated under the name “Cheesemonger,” Robinson said.

Pistoresi plans to expand the shop’s offerings and remodel its space in Pybus, he said in the release.

“We expect to build on the success of the Pybus Cheese Shoppe, but we will also expand the selections of cheeses, add additional retail items that are unique and of high quality such as chocolates and preserves, and do a remodel of the space to improve the shopping experience,” he said in the release.

Developer: Hotel work has begun WENATCHEE — The developer behind a planned hotel project next to Walla Walla Point Park has started work with plans to finish sometime next year.

The hotel, a Residence Inn by Marriott, is one of four separate hotel projects that are under development in Wenatchee.

That’s in addition to two other hotels that have been recently completed in the valley.

The building will have 127 rooms on five floors, according to city of Wenatchee records. A landscaping company and a dog park were moved to make room for the project.

In June developer Stream Real Estate purchased the project’s land from the family of Bob Parlette, the late Wenatchee community leader and developer, for roughly $2.7 million, according to Chelan County Auditor’s Office records.

Although the company has developed similarly sized apartment complexes in

the past, this will be its first hotel project, Managing Member Marc Angelillo said, and its first property in Wenatchee.

The company plans to keep ownership of the property but the hotel will be operated by a management group, he said. They hope the hotel will attract business travelers and other guests looking for extended-stay options in Wenatchee.

Stream Real Estate also has an adjacent parcel that may be used for an apartment complex with 70-80 units in the future, he said.

Mission Ridge delays new chairlift until 2020 WENATCHEE — Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort announced July 3 that the installation of its new chair lift will be delayed until spring 2020.

The current chair lift, known as The Liberator, will stay in place until the spring, according to a press release.

The project was first announced in March and it was initially scheduled to be completed by this fall.

The resort is waiting to get approval from the U.S. Forest Service and the state Department of Fish and Wildlife before it can proceed.

Some preliminary work, including concrete work on the bases, will begin this fall, but the bulk of the construction will be done next year.

“Our goal for this summer is to get some of the footing and foundation work done for the new towers and potentially some of the structural components,” Mission Ridge General Manager Josh Jorgensen said in the release. “Then, with all approvals in place and a good head start, we will install the new lift in the summer of 2020.”

The new chair lift will have better seating and retractable plexiglass “bubbles” that lower to protect riders from the cold.

It was built by Austrian company Doppelmayr in 1988, Jorgensen told The

Wenatchee World in March. The resort purchased it from a company in Europe, but he declined to say how much it cost.

Total employment grows by 1.7% between May 2018-19 NCW — Chelan and Douglas counties added 800 jobs, an increase of 1.7 percent, between May 2018-19, according to a report released early last month.

It follows an 85-month trend dating back to 2012 of job growth in the area, according to the state Employment Security Department.

The civilian labor force in the two-county area grew to 66,092 in May from 64,237 the year before, according to the report.

Of that group, 4.9 percent are unemployed. That’s a slight increase from May 2018, when the employment rate was 4.6 percent, according to the report.

The largest job growth was in the state government category, which was up 7.1 percent from 2018. Manufacturing and leisure/hospitality each grew just over 4 percent.

The biggest drop was in the trade, transportation, warehousing and utilities category, which fell 5.1 percent.

Lake Chelan hospital CEO retires CHELAN — The CEO for the Lake Chelan Community Hospital, Steve Patonai, will retire in September.

Patonai took over as CEO on Dec. 20, 2018, and announced his retirement in late June, said Celeste Hankins, Lake Chelan Community Hospital and Clinics spokeswoman.

Patonai took over to help the hospital with its long-term financial health and develop an administrative team, the hospital board said in a news release.

Patonai moved to Lake Chelan in 2018 intending to retire within a short amount Continued on page 19

Increased tenant protections in effect as of July 28

By Julie Norton and Kait Schilling Wenatchee attorneys

O

wners of residential leased properties and apartments will be impacted by newly effective legislation. In May 2019, the Washington State Legislature adopted Engrossed Substitute Bill 5600, which substantially impacts the rights of tenants under the Residential Landlord Tenant Act (“RLTA”). This bill, (in conjunction with Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1140) is informally referred to the as the “Tenant Protection Act,” and is intended to increase the rights of tenants especially regarding evictions for the nonpayment of rent. The bill went into effect on July 28. Here are some of the main changes to be aware of:

Rent definition The definition of rent for residential housing has been altered to include all recurring or periodic charges in the rental agreement, including utilities. The term “rent” does not include deposits, damages fees, late fees, legal costs or other fees.

Pay or vacates notices While notice of a default in rent may still be served anytime after rent

becomes due, the grace period for tenants to cure past due payments has been extended. A tenant is liable for unlawful detainer when they remain in possession of the rental unit 14-days after defaulting on a rental payment. Previously, tenants only had 3-days to comply with a pay or vacate notice. With this, the legislature has provided tenants additional time to cure for defaults in rent before becoming liable for unlawful detainers. The new 14-day notice to pay or vacate form has been added to RCW 59.18 providing easier to understand information to tenants. The Attorney General has been charged with keeping copies of this form in multiple languages.

Payments Any payment made by a tenant to cure their default must first be applied to rent before applying to late payment, damages, legal costs or other costs or fees. Late fees for a default in rent or eviction proceeding may not exceed $75 regardless of the number of months the tenant is behind on rent.

Increased judicial discretion Judicial discretion has been expanded under the RLTA reforms. If a tenant makes a good faith effort to pay or

comply with the lease, then the court may stay the writ of restitution for up to 90 days, allowing the tenant to remain in the unit. To be eligible for a stay, the tenant will be required to make an initial payment equivalent to one-month’s rent within 5-days of the stay order. The availability for an extended stay on a writ of restitution means that the landlord may go without full reimbursement for an extended period of time.

Mitigation fund Private landlords may apply for funds from the landlord mitigation program following a stay order from the court to help alleviate the hardship of rent owed by the tenant. If payment out of this fund is made, then the tenancy may be restored by the court. Please note that the availability of these funds is not guaranteed by the state.

To be in compliance with Washington State law, landlords need to use the new notice to pay or vacate form provided

by RCW 59.18. If you are a landlord or tenant and have any questions about navigating these changes, we encourage you to contact an attorney.

Julie Norton is a member and Kait Schilling is an associate at Ogden Murphy Wallace, PLLC. To contact the attorneys at Ogden Murphy Wallace please call 662-1954.

Business Roundup Continued from page 18 of time, said Phyllis Gleasman, hospital board chair. He stayed on as a permanent CEO so he could make some changes to the hospital’s business plan.

“So, he made a lot of the hard choices that had to be made and now he is ready to just retire,” Gleasman said.

The changes included looking at each department within the hospital and deciding what positions needed to be removed and what new positions needed to be added, she said.

The process is still ongoing.

“You can’t do what you did 20 years ago,” Gleasman said. “You have to assess what those changes are that are going to be applicable to your business.”

The hospital’s board has started the process of looking for a new CEO to replace Patonai, she said. In the past the hospital has struggled to find a CEO that was the right fit for the community, but this time the board has several good applicants, she said.

The hospital is undergoing quite a bit of change right now. It is also in the design phase for a new hospital located at the Apple Blossom Center, Hankins said.

The hospital hopes to break ground on the new building in spring, 2020 and have it completed by the fall of 2021.

Wenatchee Valley Business World | August 2019

THEY CAN’T CALL IT CRYING WOLF IF IT’S STARING YOU IN THE FACE. For years, some policymakers have dismissed efforts to ban income taxes in Washington as the political equivalent of crying wolf, but the threat of income taxes is upon us now.

Seattle’s effort to bring income taxes to Washington has born fruit. The state court of appeals has thrown out a 35 year-old law that specifically prohibited cities and towns from creating their own income taxes.

Now Seattle wants to challenge Washington’s graduated income tax prohibition in the state Supreme Court. Their goal: income taxes for Washington. And new efforts to implement an income tax on capital gains are already looming.

Help us keep Washington income-tax free.

Dutch Bros (Salute to Business) Tastebuds began as a concept from a loyal customer when I owned Jiffy PDF to AnnMarie—RD Java Espresso, which offered gourmet coffee, delicious unique treats, and 0728.00076896.1x2.25.SaluteToBusiness friendly efficient staff which quickly developed a loyal following. Jiffy Java customers wanted a place to sit / relax and enjoy their coffee. Hence, Tastebuds was born Friday, April 13th, 2007. Tastebuds decided they needed to add a service that would allow their customers to stay later than normal – so food and a wine list were added.

Always taking their customer requests to heart, Tastebuds has added and extensive menu, draft beers, cocktails and catering since their inception. And, has just recently remodeled, including an extensive upgrade to their kitchen and bar area to better serve you.

June housing: More expensive and fewer homes, again WENATCHEE — Houses in the Wenatchee area are more expensive now than a year ago.

They are also less available and slower to sell.

The median house in Wenatchee sold for $342,900 year-to-date, up 6 percent from last year, according to a Snapshot released July 9 by Pacific Appraisal Associates.

Active listings dropped from 172 in June 2018 to 167 in June of this year. Three years ago, there were 202 active listings on the market.

There were 97 single-family home sales in June, 13 percent less than last year. The area’s overall vacancy rate is now 2 percent, down from 3 percent 2018.

But construction continues to grow — 127 single-family permits have been issued so far this year, according to the Snapshot, which covers Wenatchee, East Wenatchee, Malaga, Orondo and Rock Island.

There have also been building permits issued for 204 apartments, up from 144 this time last year.

That growth is largely due to the 60-unit Sage Crest Apart-

ments in Wenatchee and an additional 48 units that are planned for the Mary Hill Plaza Apartments in East Wenatchee, said Mary Rose of Pacific Appraisal Associates.

Affordable-housing facility planned ENTIAT — A new affordable-housing facility could be coming to Entiat.

The Housing Authority of Chelan County and the city of Wenatchee have a purchaseand-sale agreement for an undeveloped 3.6 acres on Olin Street, said Executive Director Alicia McRae. She said Entiat approached her organization with an interest in senior housing, but an assessment showed more of a need for farmworker housing. Another study is being conducted to see if that’s changed.

“We’re just working with our developer right now on some predevelopment,” McRae said. “We’re doing the needs assessment and doing an environmental site assessment.”

McRae said the housing authority will probably apply for funding through the state’s Housing Finance Commission and Housing Trust Fund. The facility would include up to 60 units, she said, but she’s not yet sure of the size or cost.
