By JUSTIN BURNETTSouth Whidbey Record

Asking the South Whidbey School District for public records comes with a new price tag these days — your name, the information sought, and the time and cost to fulfill the request posted for all the world to see on the district’s website.

Beginning late last month, such details were included in a specially created document linked to online school board agendas. The

move comes in the wake of years of litigation with a single Clinton man, a former teacher who officials say has cost the district hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees, and who has besieged administrators with what school leaders characterize as broad and time con-suming information requests.

Top district officials deny the online posting policy is retaliatory, but rather is meant to keep the school board informed about the burden requests, both legitimate and superfluous, place on employees.

“It’s really just to give the board the trans-parency of knowing where staff is spending its time and resources,” said Jo Moccia, district superintendent.

School board members add, however, that there are problems with the state’s Open Public Records Act, specifically that its lack of limitations make it ripe for abuse. Making public who is asking for documents, and the cost to district taxpayers, is a way to address the issue. Those with reasonable requests have nothing to hide, they say.

“I find it to be the perfect response. … If someone has a legitimate request they should own it,” said Director Linda Racicot.

“We’re just making people responsible,” echoed Director Rocco Gianni, a board mem-ber and an advocate for the inclusion of such information online.

“With rights come responsibility,” he said.

Sea Float Scramble draws huge crowd

South Whidbey Record

Hundreds of people turned out for the third annual Sea Float Scramble in Langley Saturday, and like all treasure hunts it was a madhouse.

The star ting line dropped, and men, women,

children and the elderly all raced forward to find glass gold — it was every man for himself.

Over 200 glass balls were hidden in Seawall Park, but with so many people competition was fierce. Old men scooped up balls right in front of little girls, and children used their youth to race ahead. Yet everywhere

one turned people were cra-dling newfound prizes and sporting ear-to-ear smiles.

“It was fantastic, a lot of fun,” said Jason Cranch, a Clinton resident who attended with his two girls, Chloe, 8, and Holland, 5.

To help make sure every-one left with a glass ball,

School District struggles under weight of the Open Public Records Act

Hundreds turn out for annual Langley event

South Whidbey Elementary School has a pair of well-appreciated teachers in Bruce and Kathy Callahan.

The pair won the South Whidbey Schools Foundation’s Mentorship Award. Nominations came from the class of 2014 seniors, who praised the Callahans.

“I had Mr. and Mrs. Callahan for my fourth and fifth-grade years. They taught me to discover so many things … my love for math… love for help-ing others,” wrote Chantal Brown, who graduated in June, in the foundation’s annual newsletter.

Laying their claim to building the largest snowman on South Whidbey during the present cold spell are the youngsters shown above with their creation, a 13-foot, 4-inch “white giant.” The builders are Jay Huan, Joe Chambers, Tim Scriven, Vic Hanson ad Al Heggenes (standing) and Marietta Chambers and Carole Hanson (kneeling). The snowman was constructed in the front yard of the Bill Chambers home last week, after an eight-inch snowfall on South Whidbey.

New industry now building first boat for Alaskan work“Whidbey’s newest industry, a boat building company in Freeland, is well on its way in construction of its first product, a 42-foot seiner being built for use in Alaska. “Owners of the infant industry are Frank Nichols of Freeland and Jack Downing of Kirkland. Frank is the builder, with more than 40 years of experience behind him, and Jack is a fisherman with many years of experience in Alaskan fisheries. Their outfit is entitled “Nichols and Downing Boat Works.”“Frank said that the 42-foot fishing boat now under construction was originally intended for use by his partner. However, even before construction started, it was purchased by George Seagrave of Valdez, Alaska. Seagrave lost his previ-ous fishing boat in an earthquake which leveled Valdez last year. “The all-steel fishing craft is to be completed no later than May of 1965. “’By complete, I mean it will be ready to go,’ Frank said. ‘It will have radio, fath-ometer, automatic pilot, galley furniture, even the mattresses on the bunks. We’ll probably even buy the nets to ship up with the boat, although that isn’t in the contract.’”

William Richard Martin

Dec. 9, 1918 — Dec. 29, 2014

William Richard Martin was born in Denver, son of Asa and Myrtle Dow Martin, the eldest of five children.

He was an intelligent, cheerful man who loved his family above all else. He nearly always had a big smile on his face, even when pull-ing weeds.

Bill was selected to enter Annapolis upon high school graduation but elected to join the Navy and go through boot camp with his high school buddies. He became a Pharmacist and worked his way up, earning a commis-sion. He was a great athlete, excelling in football, baseball and basketball, and later took up the game of golf. He was always ready to play sports and card games with his seven grandsons and clean their trout on camping trips.

Bill was noted for his percussion excellence. He taught hundreds of kids to read and play drum music over a span of 60 years. Some of his students have become part-time professional musi-cians, including most of his grandsons. He always told his students, “Have fun play-ing music, but keep your day job.” This advice had been passed on to him by his uncle, “Dude” Martin,

a violinist with the Paul Whiteman Orchestra. Dude was a chiropractor by day. Bill was always ready to fill in for a fellow musician, which led him to play for notables such as Billie Holiday and Frankie Avalon. In addition to play-ing weekend gigs in various bands, including the Whidbey Island Roadrunners, while living in California he formed the Martinettes, a junior drum corps and girls’ drill team, and led the group to nine California State Championships. When the group was disbanded and became the Concord Blue Devils, he remained as percussion teacher for two years, until a suitable replace-ment was found. This corps has won more International Championships than any other corps.

Bill met his wife, Martha, at a dance on Thanksgiving 1939, and they became a professional dance team, a la “Dancing With the Stars,” starting on Valentine’s Day 1940.

After surviving the attack on Pearl Harbor, Bill, who was a crewman on the badly damaged battleship Tennessee, became a mem-ber of the 2nd Marine Raider Battalion and was involved in more action. A year and half later, he returned to San Diego, and he and Martha were married Feb. 14, 1944.

After leaving the navy, he continued his education at University of California, Berkeley, and worked 31 years in environmental health.

After retiring, the Martins bought property in Langley in 1975. Bill discovered a new interest, designing and conducting tours to Europe and the South Pacific. This the couple did for 18 years, and following these adven-

tures, he returned to teaching kids. When he retired from teaching, at age 90, he had 22 students. He was one of the first people featured as a “Hometown Hero.”

Langley survivors include Martha, his wife of more than 70 years; daughter Gennie and son Terry. There are seven grandsons, Byron Wilson, Garrett Martin, Nick Yacono, Alex, Travis, Daniel and Lucas Martin; and great-grandson, Session Martin, son of Garrett.

At Bill’s request, there will be only a gravesite service at Tahoma Cemetery.

Donna Mildred Westergaard

Donna Mildred Westergaard was born April 20, 1942, in Portland, Ore., the daughter of Richard Gillilan and Katharine Marshall Gillilan. Her broth-er, Bruce, was born a few years later.

Donna’s father worked for the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and, as a result, the family moved a number of times throughout her youth. They lived in Portland, Grants Pass, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and Pendleton. Donna had fond memories and good friends in each city.

She was an animal lover from childhood and through-out her adulthood could still recall the names, vital statistics and personal habits of the neighborhood dogs in each of her childhood cities. She was particularly fond of a Great Dane named Lady, who would regularly walk her to the Grants Pass library and back home again. Donna was also a lifelong supporter of public libraries.

After high school, Donna attended Eastern Oregon

State College in La Grande. She then switched to Central Washington State College in Ellensburg. She earned spending money by working in the college cafeteria. While working in the cafeteria kitch-en, she met a young man named George Westergaard. Unwisely, he corrected her dish-handling methods. Nevertheless, she did even-tually agree to marry him. Donna and George wed in 1964 in Portland, later attend-ing the University of Oregon together and getting their master’s degrees. Upon grad-uation, they both embarked on teaching careers, mostly in the Pacific Northwest. Donna taught English and journal-ism in Yakima, Wash., and Eugene, Ore.

When they moved to Pennsylvania so George could attend graduate school, Donna taught at Langley Middle School in Pittsburgh.

Donna and George returned to Oregon in 1973. Their daughter, Kristen, was born in 1974 in Eugene. In addition to raising a daughter in Eugene, Donna participat-ed in many community activi-ties. These included studying psychology at the University of Oregon, joining the Lane County Mental Health Board, biking the local trails and con-

structing costumes for her daughter’s school plays. Later on, she discovered an abid-ing love for visual arts and enjoyed visiting local art gal-leries and attending drawing classes at Lane Community College.

In 1999, Donna and George moved to Bellevue, Wash., where Donna added “loyal Mariners fan” to her list of hobbies and passions. When George retired from teaching, the couple moved to Clinton, Wash. Donna loved living so near the towns of Langley and Coupeville, enjoying the rich arts environ-

ment, the plentiful antiquing opportunities and the incred-ible sunsets over Useless Bay.

Donna was a lifelong book-lover, instilling her love of libraries and literature in her daughter Kristen. Donna loved good food, good books and a good joke. She was a compassionate, open-minded and loving person, great at making those around her feel loved and appreciated. She had a great big laugh and an even bigger soft spot for her four-legged friends (who never ever had to sleep on the floor).

City seeks input for hazard plan

Langley is in the pro-cess of updating its 2008 Hazard Mitigation Plan, and is looking for public input.

In an emailed newslet-ter, Mayor Fred McCarthy encouraged city residents and business owners to complete an online sur-vey. To participate, visit www.surveymonkey.com/r/IslandCountySurvey.

McCarthy added that risk assessment maps were completed for the update process and can be viewed at www.islandcountydem.

org/hazard-mitigation-plan.html.

Langley’s plan is actually just one portion of a multi-jurisdictional hazard miti-gation plan that includes all the island’s municipalities.

A team of Langley offi-cials will attend the next Island County meeting on the update, which is scheduled for noon to 3 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 13, at the Coupeville Recreation Hall, located at 901 Northwest Alexander St.

Interested citizens are invited to attend.

When the final plan is completed it will be avail-able at city hall for exami-nation and comment for 30 days prior to final adoption by the city council.

County cops nab suspected stabber

A 42-year-old Freeland man is recovering after being stabbed in the leg during a robbery Jan. 1, according to the Island County Sheriff’s Office.

Detective Ed Wallace said the suspect, Kevin Brown, was known to the victim. Brown, 37, had been at the victim’s house that night with several other people, including his girlfriend.

At one point, the man went into his bedroom to look for shoes. Brown fol-lowed him in and struck him over the heard with a large glass lamp, knocking him down, according to Wallace.

Brown told the victim to

give him “everything you got” and pulled out a large knife; the man threw his wallet at Brown, the sher-iff’s office reported.

When Brown bent down to pick up the wallet, the resident kicked at him and Brown stabbed him in the leg. Brown and his girl-friend then fled, according to Wallace.

Deputies tracked the pair to a travel trailer parked beside a Delphi Street house. The girlfriend exited the trailer, but Brown refused repeated com-mands to come out.

A search warrant was obtained and members of the Island County Sheriff’s Office warrant service team entered the trailer and located Brown hiding under a pile of blankets between the mattress and the wall, the sheriff’s office reported in a press release.

The victim was taken to the hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

Brown is being held in the Island County Jail on $50,000 bail.

Ferry leaders to visit commissioners

The Board of Island County Commissioners will meet in special ses-sion 1:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 8, in the commis-sioners hearing room in Coupeville.

Commissioners will meet with Washington State Ferries Assistant Secretary Lynne Griffith who will share her experi-ences over her first three months in that position.

Lacey Harper, deputy director of external affairs for the governor’s office, will also be in attendance. Both visitors will answer questions and offer feed-back concerning transpor-tation and ferry issues.

Garden club seeks grant applicants

The South Whidbey Garden Club has some extra money and is looking for the right organization to give it to.

The club is inviting community non-profits to apply for a $500 grant for projects that benefit the community with envi-ronmental stewardship, horticultural education or community beautification.

COUNTY

IS THE NEW PROPERTY

REALLY YOURS?When you purchase your

next home and receive your deed, how can you be sure you are receiving clear title? In fact, how can you even be sure the sellers are the present owners?

When purchasing real estate, you should be receiving the highest and best deed available - a “General Warranty” deed. By giving you this deed, sellers warrant that they own the property and will defend you against any and all claims to the property by others.

As further assurance, you should always have a “title search” performed by an attorney. This search determines the history of title to the property, and identifi es any judgements, liens, or claims by others which may be an impediment to good title. If any are discovered, they must be eliminated prior to passing of title to the buyers.

One additional step insures that buyers are receiving good title. Called “title insurance,” this insurance pays legal costs associated with defending title should a claim occur later. In the unlikely event that a title defect is established, the insurance will pay up to face value of the policy - usually an amount equal to the purchase price.

When purchasing your next home, be certain that your purchase contract calls for the seller to deliver a “General Warranty” deed - then ask for title insurance. It’s inexpensive and provides great peace of mind.

By JANIS REIDSouth Whidbey Record

Former South Whidbey teacher Eric Hood is suing the City of Langley in Island County Superior Court for allegedly violat-ing the Public Records Act.

Hood’s most recent law-suit is one in a string of legal actions that stems from the loss of his job with the South Whidbey School District in 2010. Hood appears to blame Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy who was schools superin-tendent at the time of his termination.

In December 2013, Hood asked the city to turn over any records or cor-respondences that men-tion himself and “please search particularly for any records of communication involving Fred McCarthy,” his request stated.

In his lawsuit, Hood claims that the city with-held documents from this request.

“Denying access to requested public records without claiming an exemption or basis for withholding the records is a violation of the Public Records Act,” according to the lawsuit.

Hood has indicated in correspondence with McCarthy and the city council that he believes the behavior demon-strates a pattern of deceit in McCarthy’s leadership, both at the school district and in city government. The correspondence was included as exhibits within the lawsuit.

After Hood lost his job in 2010, an arbitrator deter-mined that McCarthy and the school district were

justified in not renewing Hood’s teaching contract. Hood then filed a series of open records requests and later sued the district when he didn’t receive the documents fast enough.

A judge agreed with him in a decision earlier this year, and ordered the dis-trict to pay Hood a total of $7,150 for the “district’s untimely production of documents.”

McCarthy said Tuesday that Hood’s determination to find fault with the deci-sion is “beyond persistent — it’s obsessed.”

McCarthy said he believes that the school district under his leader-ship “provided him every-thing we were legally advised to do,” but that Hood’s repeated requests likely became a “source of frustration” for the district.

McCarthy said Hood’s pattern of filing ongoing requests is a good exam-ple of how school districts and city governments can become “beleaguered” with filling some public records requests.

“It’s amazing how much time it takes when you feel like you’re doing the right thing,” McCarthy said. “It consumes tons of people’s time.”

Hood’s lawsuit also takes issue with a “secure confidential file” kept by McCarthy that Hood believes contains the docu-ments he requested. Hood claims in his lawsuit that “the city silently withholds all records” contained in the “confidential” file.

In a December 2013 email sent by McCarthy to the city council, McCarthy said that most of Hood’s requested documents are “in a secure confidential

file” that he maintains, but that he would release the documents “within a reasonable timeline in January 2014.”

McCarthy also told City Council members via cor-respondence to keep in mind that any “commu-nications on this matter may be discoverable in the future.”

Given Hood’s history for requesting documents, McCarthy said Tuesday that keeping a file contain-ing documents concerning Hood is simply a proac-tive step in dealing with someone litigious. He added that all documents contained in that file have been given to Hood and all future documents will also be available.

Hood declined to com-ment via email.

Val Nichols

Valborg “Val” Marie Nichols, 85, died Dec. 11, 2014. She fought breast cancer twice, and after becoming ill with pneumonia in September, doctors discovered the can-cer had returned.

She was born Sept. 12, 1929, in Milwaukee to Jens and Nellie Jensen. She graduated from Rufus King High School in Milwaukee in June 1947.

She married Frederick Lammert Sept. 25, 1948, at the First Methodist Church in Milwaukee. They had two children, Erik and Mary, and lived in Green Bay, Wis. Fred and Val moved to Langley in 1971, and Fred pre-ceded her in death in 1975.

She met Clinton resident Glenn Nichols at Toastmasters in 1976, and they were married at Langley United Methodist Church March 20, 1977.

Val attended the Wisconsin College of Cosmetology and earned her certificate in

1972. After moving to Whidbey Island, she attended Skagit Valley College to become a licensed practical nurse. She received her certification in July 1978. She worked as a nurse at a doctor’s office in Freeland and

later at the former nursing home in Freeland.Val enjoyed many activities, including

bingo, bridge, senior center trips to nearby casinos and taking cruises. She was a mem-ber of Citizens on Patrol for the Island County Sheriff’s Office 1995-2000.

She was preceded in death by her hus-band, Glenn Nichols, in 2008, and by her son-in-law, Jim Harwell, in 2008.

She is survived by her son, Erik Lammert, and his wife, Judy, of Green Bay; her daugh-ter, Mary Harwell, of Langley; a stepdaugh-ter, Cheryl Nichols, of Agoura Hills, Calif.; granddaughter, Jennifer (Harwell) Boone, and her husband, Eric, of Oak Harbor; granddaughter, Sarah (Lammert) Olson, and her husband, Carl, of Golden Valley, Minn.; grandson, Daniel Lammert, and his wife, Sue, of Crystal, Minn.; grandson, Jimmy Harwell, and his wife, Sarah, of Gig Harbor; and great-grandchildren, Asher, Aida, Allegra, Kayson, Carter and Alexander.

A memorial service is planned for 11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 10, at the South Whidbey Assembly of God, 5373 Maxwelton Road, Langley. In lieu of flowers, memorials can be made to the American Cancer Society, P.O. Box 22718, Oklahoma City, OK 73123.

Clinton man sues Langley, mayor for alleged records violations

ResponseThe time has come to move forward with projectEditor,

One question about the funicular not addressed previously in a Dec. 13 let-ter in The Record regards parking for boaters in the middle school parking lot only being available during the summer months (for saving time and pollution by hauling their gear on the funicular). Perhaps that letter writer was not aware that the city has another agreement with the Island Church allowing boaters to use their parking lot (even closer than the middle school) year round except on Sundays. In addition the city could further negotiate with the middle school to use their lot on weekends year round as well.

The funicular, as Mr. Levine points out, could be realized within a year. Boaters, able-bodied and disabled alike, could ride the ride, enjoy the view, have a drink or a meal or a picnic and shop the shops. South Whidbey residents, whether boaters or pedes-trians, would also be drawn to the ride and even use it as a prelude for picnick-ing in the area and walk-ing the now-longer marina dock. This means that we would all benefit: not just “government and business owners.” When local busi-nesses get a shot in the arm from visitor dollars it helps those local busi-nesses to remain viable for the convenience and enjoy-ment of locals also.

To dismiss all the pre-vious planning, propos-ing and narrowing down of factors that need to be

involved in the project by starting from scratch is a prelude for wasting more and more time for a pro-posal that was initiated in 2004. Inertia kills construc-tive projects slowly but just as effectively as anything else.

I invite support of an idea whose time has come: a low-impact, low-profile, low-cost, high-yield enhancement to the Langley waterfront.

CLAUDIA MITCHELLFreeland

Windows reveal spots to some, universe to othersEditor,

I am supportive of Erica Eden’s letter in the Jan. 3 edition of The Record. The funicular is an innovative and exciting concept.

The thought of tying our business district to a grow-ing marina may just pave the way for a beleaguered Langley to reinvent itself in a way that will insure a prosperous longevity.

I’ve lived in Langley proper since 1999 and try to walk into town on a daily basis. The marina has always seemed like a separate entity.

Let’s tie the knot between the city and the marina.

We need the funicular to do it, from both the service aspect and for the amaz-ing attraction it will be for untold numbers of visitors. And being able to decon-gest the marina from vehi-cles by allowing parking at the Island Community Church is quite a benefit.

Now, what will the funic-ular do for the all-impor-tant merchants? There will be more tourists from all over the island, from the mainland and from the boating community. Let’s face it, without successful businesses the city decays, property values diminish, the tax base erodes, the community and schools flounder, etc.

The two letters from Charlie Pancerzewski and Sharon Emerson are just as important to the discus-

sion as are the benefits. Yes, the cost of design and construction and an operating and maintenance plan and funding for all of the above need to be addressed.

I’d like to see those who will benefit share the costs: the marina for more boats at the docks, the merchants for more rev-enues and you and me for a healthy community.

Some look through a window and see the water spots, while others see the universe.

this is not one of those times. These million-dollar athletes are paying back, drawing the region, including Whidbey Island, together.

In this time of political divide, distrust and decaying etiquette, anything that brings humans closer in a positive matter should be cherished and encouraged.

The days of unlocked doors are gone. Block parties are rare. Late-night strolls alone aren’t advisable.

The Seahawks are providing a healthy common ground we can share.

Green and blue bulbs light up porches, “12” banners flap from car windows and neighbors meet each Sunday to watch the Hawks.

This is more than jumping on the bandwagon of a suc-cessful team. Seahawk spirit has become community spirit.

And we have picked the right team to applaud. The Seahawks are greater than a one-hit wonder. Most teams that win the Super Bowl fail to qualify for the playoffs the following season. The incentives are gone and the finan-cial benefits of the achievement often soften the will.

Not in Seattle.The Seahawks’ work ethic and desire to continue to be

successful, both on and off the field, should be emulated.Richard Sherman rose from a gang-infested commu-

nity to earn a degree from Stanford; Earl Thomas left the Super Bowl victory celebration to study game film; Jerome Kearse and Doug Baldwin overcame the stigma of undrafted rejects to become star receivers; and the char-ity work of the players touches thousands.

The Seahawks are the good guys — literally. And they are ours.

We come together to marvel at Russell Wilson’s escape acts, Kam Chancellor’s bone-jarring tackles and Marshawn Lynch’s quirks. We rise together to celebrate touchdowns and gripe together about play calling. We cheer a Steven Hauschka kick and jeer a Jim Harbaugh rant.

The keys to these statements are “we” and “together.” And we get to share these moments around Bud Lite, nachos and cowboy caviar.

Yes, these are special times, and the benefits will last far beyond the next game.

Thanks, Seahawks. Twelve is our new lucky number.

you to the store. Hey, you even get a nickel back for each bag of yours they use.

But here’s a better idea. Let’s persuade all the gro-cery stores on the South End to start charging each one of us a nickel for each bag they provide for our use. We are far more likely to remember our bags if we know it’s going to cost us if we don’t. And hopefully less bags mean less trees cut down and fewer barrels of oil pumped.

Happy New Year. GEOFF HORNSBY

Hospital should heed message of transparency Editor,

I applaud The Record for insisting that Whidbey General Hospital (or WGH) be held to the highest standards of truthfulness and transparency. Those like myself, who enter the health professions, know we will be held account-able to the communities we serve. We ought to expect the same from the hospitals where we work.

I was employed as a reg-

istered nurse (or RN) at WGH in the Home Health and Hospice department from 2006 until I resigned in July of 2011. Earlier that year, a situation arose where I was accused of wrongdoing in the care of a hospice patient. The hospital then went on to make a public statement that charged me with full responsibility for the mis-carriage of care despite the fact that I was following a doctor’s prescribed order and never acted outside of nursing practice guidelines.

The hospital’s published version of the sequence of events, their insistence on this version, left me with little room for recourse. In addition, I was ordered to be silent, to speak to no one, to have no contact with my supervisors, colleagues or other community mem-bers at the risk of termina-tion.

So I was silenced. When I attempted later with legal counsel to counter and provide more information

which would have cor-rected and exonerated the now public charge against me, WGH continued to sup-press crucial facts. These missing facts would have

shown the complexity of the situation and that the charges against me were false.

It seems to me there is a culture of secrecy at

work. How does a public hospital get away with sup-pressing full disclosure? Who decides what is made public? What is a hospital’s ethical responsibility to its

community?The Record is wise to

insist on transparency. This is not happening at WGH.

Athletics ladies a staple at SWHS home games By BEN WATANABE

South Whidbey Record

Walk into Erickson Gym or through the gates of Waterman’s Field for a foot-ball, volleyball, basketball or wrestling match, and one of five women is there to greet you.

For at least the past decade, every home game at South Whidbey High School has featured the Falcon ath-letics ladies: Maryann Davis, Pat Nostrand, Lois Cooley, Janis Martinovic and Jan McNeely. And they are true blue: each dons their blue and white proudly, welcomes guests, hands out tickets and chats with friends, neigh-bors, parents, students and teachers.

McNeely, a teacher who retired in 2012, joked that she gave away a ton of Falcon-adorned clothing to the Good Cheer Thrift Store, and still has plenty to choose from.

“As I’ve said often times, you’d have to euthanize me to get me to leave this high school,” she said.

Others, such as Lois Cooley, just got her first Falcon sweater this year from a mystery benefactor.

They don’t do it for the money, a $25 per game sti-pend which they appreciate, but note that it doesn’t make or break their banks.

All of them were ini-tially roped into duty for the Falcon athletic department taking tickets, keeping sta-tistics, working scoreboards and shot clocks, and ensur-ing students’ best behavior because their own children were students there. These days, not one of them has a child enrolled in the school.

“You start watching these kids and you want to see them grow and develop,” said Nostrand, who has been at the home games for 22 years in a row. Nostrand, wearing a blue vest with the Falcon logo, went another step with a white pin, also with the Falcon logo that read “Go Falcons!”

As they chatted during a recent home stand, one man walked in, chatted with the women about his family and

paid for his ticket. McNeely said she taught his daughter and granddaughter.

“We literally see gen-erations walk through,” she said.

Collectively, they have put in a century to South Whidbey sports. McNeely, who used to coach, is the rookie of the group as she started running the crew as the athletic coordinator in 2010. Others can trace their starts to the late 1980s and early 1990s.

“It’s been a long time,” Cooley said.

“I told Jason (her hus-band) I’d do this job ’til I was 80 or dead,” she added. “Neither’s happened, but we’re getting close.”

By and large, things are fine for the women, whose ages range from the mid-50s to late-70s. Every once in a while, a student tries to sneak past them or leave a game to smoke or drink. That’s when the action begins for someone like Cooley.

“I was done with football because I was tired of frozen toes. I was done chasing kids.”

But she returned.“For the most part, all the

parents and kids are really nice,” she added.

Anyone who wants to know the latest intel on South Whidbey and Coupeville can go straight to the Falcon ladies, true gate-keepers of information.

Davis, the elder states-woman of the group, handed The Record a short descrip-tion of her involvement with the athletic department on a notepad. The opening sen-tence: “My story is boring.”

Hers is far from it, how-ever. A busy woman who still works, Davis has lots of opinions about the teams she sees. Her favorite teams were in 1987 and 1989, when two of her children graduated and a decade after her family moved to South Whidbey. Not knowing any-one, she said high school sports were an easy social gathering.

More often than not, she’s a dyed-in-the-wool supporter, noting that team effort and hard work are the impor-tant qualities she sees in all Falcon sports. The spectacle of a game at South Whidbey

is a bargain for senior citi-zens, she said, citing the free admission, and helps her feel connected to the younger generations and the school district.

“I get to see the kids get married, have kids and their

kids play,” Davis wrote. Janis Martinovic, like

McNeely, is a bit of a rookie. She’s worked at the games for nine years, though she said “They all just kind of blend together.” With her children away, she used the

home games as a means to keep in touch with her friends’ kids.

“I wanted to stay in con-tact with the kids after my kids graduated … Now I don’t know any of them and it’s still fun,” she said.

organizers added a second hunting ground for children five and under to this year’s scramble at Langley Park on the corner of Second Street and Anthes Avenue. A third and secret spot was also added for people who didn’t find a glass ball at either of two advertised loca-tions.

“I thought that was really cool,” Cranch said.The event was free and put on by the Langley Main

Street Association and the Callahan’s Firehouse Studio. Callahan McVay, the studio’s owner, supplied the glass balls, which were also free for scramble participants.

Lorinda Kay with the main street association said the event seems to grow every year and another large turnout was expected. The additional hunting grounds were included to try and ensure that no one went home empty handed.

“We want to make this a fun thing,” she said.The event was created as a way to bring people to

Langley during a typically slow time of year, right after the holidays. To that effect, the scramble seems to have been a success as the city’s streets bustled with families visiting stores and supporting local eateries before and after the hunt.

“Look at all these people,” said McVay, motioning to patrons at The Braeburn restaurant following the scramble.

Cranch said they are relatively new to the South End, and events like these are what make the community a special place to live. They are a chance to meet up with friends, and for children to get together and have fun.

“It’s just great,” he said.

Legal expensesThe move is tied into ongo-

ing litigation with Eric Hood, whose employment contract was not renewed by the district in 2010. Hood sued, claiming he was let go with-out cause and later sued again for alleged public records vio-lations. He is presently fight-ing two separate battles with the school district, one in U.S. District Court and another in Island County Superior Court.

Most recently he filed suit against Langley and Mayor Fred McCarthy in Island County Superior Court for alleged public records act violations (see story on page 5). McCarthy is Moccia’s pre-decessor and was school dis-trict superintendent in 2010 when Hood’s contract was not renewed.

Hood declined to be inter-viewed for this story, or the story about his lawsuit with McCarthy.

Racicot, Gianni and Moccia also declined to talk about the ongoing litigation, but each noted that the cost of such legal battles and complying with records requests over the past four years has been expensive, and played a role in the decision to create a special document highlight-ing who is making requests and their cost.

The exact figure remains unclear, but according to Moccia the district’s legal bills are “in the neighborhood of $400,000.”

“That’s not all one case, but much of it is Hood,” she said.

The legal budget for the 2014-2015 school year alone is $175,000, all of which is gen-eral fund money that could otherwise be directed toward students. That’s big bucks, said Moccia, and when you’re spending that kind of money on legal fees, people want to know why.

Subsequently, Hood’s records requests have attract-ed the attention of the board and has led some to say the situation is a clear example of how the state’s public records act can be misused.

“When it goes on and on just to tie an agency up, I have a problem with that,” Gianni said.

“This is $400,000 grand that didn’t go to our kids,” he added.

School officials, however, aren’t without fault. A por-tion of that money includes $7,150 that a judge ordered the district to pay Hood ear-lier this year for the “untimely production of documents.” When asked about the ruling,

Moccia declined to address the issue citing ongoing liti-gation.

Also, of the district’s 10 records requests in 2014 Hood made only four. Moccia did address that, saying the number of requests isn’t nec-essarily the trouble — it’s the scope. Broad requests, which she said are often made unin-tentionally, become massive undertakings that can take months to compile, but school officials don’t have any option but to comply with state law.

And sometimes, people don’t even collect the records they request.

“I don’t want to withhold records, I just can’t keep up with records requests,” she said.

An old problemSouth Whidbey’s chal-

lenges with the state’s record laws are nothing new, as small junior taxing districts and large municipalities alike have grappled with the prob-lem for years.

While most are able to keep up with the demand placed on resources, in rare and extreme cases it’s led some public agencies to near collapse. The tiny Eastern Washington town of Mesa considered bankruptcy or dis-incorporation in 2009 after a judge ruled it had violated the state’s records laws, accord-ing to the Seattle Times. Fines made up nearly one-third of the town’s annual budget, the newspaper reported.

It’s enough of an issue that in 2012 the Legislature considered a bill to limit the reach of the open public records act and lessen the burden on struggling govern-ments. Among its sponsors was Mary Margaret Haugen, the former and longtime state senator in District 10.

Open government advo-cates objected, saying the pro-posal would dull the effective-ness of the records act to the benefit of government offi-cials. According to a Seattle Times story, they responded specifically to the problem of “abusive requestors,” saying public officials have several means of combating the prob-lem, from asking for clarity to releasing information in pieces.

The bill was not passed.

Whidbey’s solutionWhile legislative changes

have yet to occur, South Whidbey school officials say they aren’t alone in their decision to publicly identify requestors. The district has had the policy framework in place since early 2014 but only moved forward after Gianni suggested they use the same reporting form as the Monroe School District. Also, it waited until district attorneys had confirmed the practice was in fact legal and didn’t breech state privacy laws.

The exact number of school districts around the state that post such information could not be confirmed. Calls to the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction were not returned by press time, and Michael Wilson, com-munications director for the Washington State School Directors Association, wrote in an email to The Record that they don’t track who does it and who doesn’t.

Officials with the Coupeville and Oak Harbor school districts did confirm, however, that neither identi-fies people who make records requests, but that they aren’t afflicted with large and numerous records requests.

“If we get four in a year, that’s a lot,” said Janet Wodjenski, public records officer for Coupeville. “Some years we don’t get any at all.”

She added that she could see how someone with a “bee in their bonnet” could create a large workload, and that she doesn’t see any problem with including such informa-tion in online board agen-das because of the possible impacts to district business.

Lance Gibbon, superinten-dent in Oak Harbor, didn’t weigh in on whether such a practice was appropriate, but he did say he can see how large requests could be prob-lematic. Despite few requests, last year an out-of-state com-pany asked for information concerning district supply orders for commercial pur-poses. It amounted to 54,000 pages of records, all of which had to be reviewed by an employee.

“It took one person five days of work,” Gibbon said.

Nancy Krier, open govern-ment ombudsman for the Attorney General’s Office, confirmed that the City of Kirkland is also posting records requests online. The policy is perfectly legal, as anyone who asks for public documents becomes a sub-ject for disclosure to the records act themselves.

“It’s all public information,” Krier said.

She added that her office recommends governments post online the most com-monly requested documents as a tool to help reduce the number of requests.

Finding a balanceMoccia said school offi-

cials, including the board, value transparency and want to supply the all the records the public is legally entitled to. But with state law being so easy to abuse, school districts and other small governments can be at the mercy of those with a grudge, and that’s not the purpose behind the Washington sunshine rules, Moccia said.

“The impact of the act is transparency, I believe that,” she said. “I’m just not con-vinced the impact of that is understood.”

Racicot agreed, adding that a balance needs to be struck between transparency and reasonableness, especially when it comes to education.

“It does have a big impact and ripple effect on our chil-dren,” Racicot said.

RECORDSCONTINUED FROM A1

SCRAMBLECONTINUED FROM A1

By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record

A group of six Whidbey bird enthusiasts gathered on the shore of Goss Lake Saturday morning and peered excitedly through their binoculars, hoping to get a peak at the bald eagle perched upon the opposite shore.

“I’d hang my head in shame if we did the tally and came back without a bald eagle,” said Govinda Rosling with a chuckle. Rosling was the expedition’s team leader, and is an Audubon Society member and chairwoman of South Whidbey’s Audubon Christmas bird count.

The bird count is an annual event in its 115th year. The count originated in 1900 when ornithologist Frank Chapman, an officer of the Audubon Society, proposed the idea. Prior to the turn of the century, it was a regular Christmas tradition to partici-pate in a game called a “Side Hunt” in which people com-peted to see how many birds they could shoot and bag. The person with the most dead birds at the end of the game was deemed the win-ner. Due to severely declin-ing populations in certain species, explained Rosling, Chapman came up with the idea to count rather than kill the birds. The count began with approximately 25 partici-pants and is now composed of 70,000 counters.

The Christmas count is the longest running citizen science survey in the world and provides important data on avian population trends.

“We’re just getting a slice of that population. Over time that slice really recurs, really sets into an overlying trend. Each year it builds on the last year,” said Rosling.

She explained that, as the compiler for the South Whidbey count, she sends the data from each of the teams to the National

Audubon Society which pub-lishes the national data each spring. The data is published on the society’s website and is used by state agencies, researchers and bird lovers nationwide.

For avian enthusiasts like Rosling and her team, it’s also a lot of fun.

Diana Connors, a member of Rosling’s team, was on her first count in over 30 years. Connors is a member of the National Audubon Society and frequent solo birder. She and her friend, Marti Murphy, have taken great joy in spotting rare birds on vacations to locations such as Hawaii and South America.

“I’m always looking for birds,” Connors said.

“I do it because I love it,” said Rosling, adding that the count is especially important because the avian population “echoes the health of the whole island.”

South Whidbey’s count is in its fourth year; this is the first year a team covered Camano Island. Goss Lake served as the epicenter, with the 12 teams branching out in a 15-mile diameter circle around the lake. Teams covered Langley, Trillium, Useless Bay, Clinton, South Whidbey State Park, Saratoga, Deer Lagoon, Camano and other areas. Rosling’s team covered Goss Lake, Baby Island, Bells Beach and Holmes Harbor.

The team picked up sev-

eral species after their Goss Lake stop, Rosling said, in part due to the dissipation of fog in the later morning and into the afternoon.

Overall, the weather was a fairly pleasant though chilly 40 degrees, absent of snow or rain which might have impeded the count.

Rosling’s team, which was composed of Bernita Sanstad, Bob French, Sandy Shipley, Murphy and Connors, began their day by venturing from the meet-up spot at Trinity Lutheran Church to a private property just off of Goodell Road. The property owner was one of several who had allowed access for the birders in order to help them get a more accurate count.

There were 70 volunteers total this year, an increase from years prior, according to Rosling. The teams count-ed 21,299 individual birds.

The most abundant spe-cies, said Rosling, was the dunlin, a shore bird, of which the group counted 3,641, most of which were present at Deer Lagoon. The teams also counted 2,234 pine siskin, which Rosling said increase in population in the area every two years. Last year, she said, there were less than 100 counted on South Whidbey.

Several rare birds such as white throated sparrow, cas-sin’s auklet and two northern saw’whett owls were spotted, constituting the need for Rosling to fill out a specific rare bird form to send in to the National Audubon Society.

The northern saw’whett owls, said Rosling, were spot-ted by Steve Ellis in South Whidbey State Park.

“He’s got the best ears on the South End, bionic ears,” said Rosling, explaining that the owls are barely as large as a human hand.

A northern goss hawk was spotted off Cultus Bay Road. Rosling explained that this variety of hawk is not rare, though they are usually seen off the hills of the Cascade Mountains rather than in the area of Whidbey Island.

Rosling also spotted a black scoter off of Baby Island, which she explained is the bird Daffy Duck is modeled after.

“That was really cool for me,” she said.

Next year’s count will be held on Saturday, Jan. 2, 2016.

“Birds are amazing. They have really cool calls and they can fly,” said Gosling with a chuckle. “They have such diversity, our fine feath-ered friends.”

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord.

Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.
