Town’s hand slapped over bonusesBy Megan HansenEditor

Town of Coupeville got a slap on the wrists by the Washington State Auditor for how it distributed bonuses in 2011 and 2012.

In an audit report released March 29, the auditor’s office noted the town paid its em-ployees extra compensation which is not al-lowable per Washington State Constitution.

It wasn’t that the money was paid, said Mayor Nancy Conard, but in how it was paid.

“I’m so disappointed we had a finding,” said Mayor Nancy Conard. “We hadn’t had one in years.”

Conard said she was surprised to get the finding because the town went to great lengths to ensure the funds were properly distributed.

In 2011 the council decided to give cash payouts in the amount of $1,200 to each em-ployee as a way to compensate for not having a cost of living increase since 2008.

Conard said she wanted to give one big payment as opposed to monthly smaller pay-

ments because it would make more of an impact.

Paying a bonus was also a way to give a one-time pay increase without an ongoing rev-enue commitment, Conard said.

The total amounts paid were $20,451 in 2011 and $16,373 in 2012.

Prior to paying the bonuses, Conard said the town consulted its attorney as well as state offices.

“I thought I’d had it all perfectly handled,” she said. “So we did it again the next year.”

What the auditor’s office noted in its find-ing was that increases in compensation should

be prospective and not after services are ren-dered.

The bonuses were seen as additional pay for services already rendered.

“It wasn’t wrong to pay them, just the schedule,” Conard said.

The auditor’s office recommended the town implement new policies and procedures as a way to ensure future compliance.

Conard said she doesn’t know if council will approve future payments.

“I don’t know if we’re going to do it again, but if we do, we won’t do it the same way,” she said.

Coupeville Town Council is continu-ing its exploration into what to do with the town’s marshal’s office.

A workshop was held last week and council members revisited options for fur-ther review.

There are three ways to look at staffing a police force, said Mayor Nancy Conard. It can be staffed based on how it’s always staffed, on a per capita basis or need basis.

The two options the town is currently looking at include reducing the force from four to three deputies and keeping its own department or contracting with the Island County Sheriff’s Office.

What’s important, Conard said, is with either option, Coupeville’s police presence will still have its own identity. If the option is to contract, Coupeville will have two set officers, wearing Coupeville uniforms.

It’s important for the town to see the same faces, she said.

The town started looking at law enforce-ment options last September after several officers left the department.

There is no set timeframe on making a decision and the town wants to explore all the options.

“We’re just working our way through it,” Conard said. “We don’t know all the pros and cons.”

Right now Coupeville has a marshal, and one deputy as well as contracted staff from area departments filling in.

The town receives 24-hour coverage with either one officer on patrol or on-call.

One high school student’s senior project is going to help the Island County Museum.

Senior Ben Carlson spent most of his senior year de-signing and building a wood-en wagon that is one-fifth scale of one that was used by settlers in the 19th century when they made their jour-ney west on the Oregon Trail. That wagon will be donated to the museum, which will be used for education and out-reach efforts.

Members of the Coupe-ville Lions Club got a chance to see the wagon during their May 29 meeting at the Coupeville Recreation Hall. Once the meeting was fin-ished, it was taken across the street and into the museum.

Tom Eller, woodworking teacher at Coupeville High School, noted that Carl-son built a scale-version of a Conestoga Wagon, which was typically 17 feet in length and was first produced in 1841. He said Carlson logged 250 hours building the wagon, which is constructed of alder and has functioning brakes.

Carlson and Eller were quick to point out the chal-lenges that were encountered throughout the design and building process.

Eller said that the designs they found for the wagon weren’t accurate.

Carlson said the wheels and brakes were tough to assemble. The wheel’s hub had to be in the center or it wouldn’t turn, the break shaft was difficult to accu-rately measure and the trim proved difficult too.

The wagon was displayed during the Lions Club meet-ing, which had a farm theme where members dressed in overalls and played Bingo.

Gordon Grant with the Island County Historical

Society said he contacted Coupeville High School to see if any student would be willing to produce the wag-on. He said the museum is busy producing new exhibits and the wagon will be used for a display about pioneers coming to the Pacific North-west.

Rick Castellano, ex-ecutive director of the Island County Museum, is happy the museum will show an item that looks like a 19th century prairie schooner.

He pointed out that Carl-son’s model lacked a driver’s seat, which is common for wagons and pioneers typi-cally walked alongside dur-ing their journey.

“Ben just did an amazing job,” Castellano said.

Carlson built the wagon for his senior project, which is a requirement all public school students need to com-plete in order to graduate. Once he finishes with high school, he plans to work for his dad and travel to Alaska.

Is it just me, or does anyone else get a little excited when they hear the word “audit?”

Checking my email Monday morning, I was happy to find a notifica-tion from the Wash-ington State Auditor’s Office saying a new audit report had been

released.The report was from an audit recently completed

on Town of Coupeville.Audits are great for journalists as a way to report

on entities and help maintain transparency.They are also a great tool for those entities to en-

sure they are following the proper procedures and uti-lizing public funds in an appropriate manner.

Coupeville is audited every two years. Mayor Nancy Conard said she was disappointed to

learn the town had a finding after going so many years without.

But we live and we learn.The issue raised in the audit was how the town

chose to pay employee bonuses in 2011 and 2012.In both those years, employees were paid a lump

sum of $1,200 each. A total of $36,000 over two years.The auditors office said the payments were against

state law because they were seen as additional pay for services already rendered.

Had the town paid $100 each month, the issue might have been avoided.

While the town thought they had done their due diligence in checking with the town attorney and the auditor’s office prior to making the payments, there was some confusion in the learning process.

The town responded to the audit professionally and has learned from this experience.

It’s a very important task managing public funds and there are a lot of rules and regulations.

That’s why it’s important to have agencies like the auditor’s office checking in from time to time.

So for those of you who dread hearing the “A” word, pause and think about what an important role they play in our consitutional process.

All should pay for law, justice fundingEditor,

When fiscal times get tough, many of our government representatives choose to cut vital services such as fire and law enforcement.

God forbid we should cut so-called social services or free bus services.

Why not spread the financial sup-port burden among all residents of Is-land County instead of always targeting homeowners through property taxes. All people in the county benefit from

law and fire protection services, ergo all people should bear the costs of these vi-tal services.

One way to accomplish this “fair share” support is through a sales tax rather than putting it all on property taxes.

As for the proposed tax, I would vote for it only under two conditions:

• Funds currently spent by the county for law and justice services shall not be reduced in any way.

• Taxes raised via the new levy shall be used exclusively for law enforcement and cannot be used by the county gov-ernment for any other purpose.

That would keep the county from us-

ing the levy as an excuse to shift general funds currently going to law and justice to other purposes.

The price of citizenship should be paid by all citizens, not just those deemed by the government as “able” to pay — sounds like socialism to me.

Too bad this isn’t done by the federal government where almost half the popu-lation pay no income taxes and thus avoid the onus of responsible citizenship. This group is getting a free ride paid for by the taxpayers.

They took different paths to their athletic success, but the depth of the impression each left on Coupeville High School is equally as deep.

Seniors Amanda d’Almeida and Danny Saval-za received CHS’s top athletic honor, Athlete of the Year, May 30.

D’Almeida, who collect-ed multiple all-conference awards in soccer and district doubles titles in tennis, is noted for her leadership and work ethic.

Savalza, a football and soccer player, may have had his greatest impact on Coupeville High School athletics in sports he did not play.

D’Almeida said, “It felt very good to be recognized.

I was completely surprised when they called my name; usually Athlete of the Year participates in three sports. I was really humbled that they still recognized my dedica-tion and hard work to soccer and tennis.”

Savalza said, “It was a total surprise to receive this award; I was and still am in total shock.”

He added, “I was born and raised here in Coupeville, and I feel that this is a great way to go out, better than I would have ever imagined. I am truly humbled and hon-ored.”

D’Almeida, a three-year soccer team captain and 4.0 student, said she wants to be remembered “as a good teammate first and foremost” and as an example that hard work does lead to success.

She said she will most

remember the support of her teammates and coaches.

D’Almeida considers any win by the high school soc-cer team and her first district tennis doubles title with fel-low freshman Jessica Riddle her greatest athletic achieve-ments.

Coupeville tennis coach Ken Stange said, “Rare is the person who possesses both natural talent and a strong work ethic. Amanda embod-ies both of those qualities. Three district tennis titles, valedictorian, playing soccer at a highly respected col-lege. These accomplishments did not come easily. Some kids text during road trips, Amanda does calculus. She is living proof that hard work pays off.”

Dan d’Almeida, Aman-da’s father and high-school soccer coach, said, “She pushed her teammates to work hard during practice and scrimmages. And most importantly, she gave 100 percent every minute of every practice and game, leading strongly by example.”

Soccer coach Paul Mendes, in regard to Savalza, said, “Danny is a fierce com-petitor with indomitable spirit. Danny is representa-tive of this fine senior class, committed, disciplined, team oriented in every way.”

Football coach Tony Maggio said, “He was our emotional leader ... and was key in our victory at South Whidbey.

“Our young players looked up to Danny; he would always give them help if they needed it, encourage-ment if they were down and a little discipline if they were

loafing.”Savalza considered the

win over South Whidbey his greatest athletic achieve-ment, calling it “by far the most intense football game I have ever played during high school.”

Savalza’s impact carried far beyond the football and soccer fields. His willing-ness to support his fellow athletes left a lasting impres-sion. Dressed as the Shaman, Savalza fired up the CHS rooting sections at volleyball

and basketball games.He said, “I believe that

school spirit is a very impor-tant part of high school, as it’s a big morale booster for sports teams, knowing that your student section and classmates are behind you cheering you on and getting crazy. I hope they say: ‘Man, do you remember the first Shaman? Shaman Savalza? Those were some crazy times at the volleyball and basket-ball games.’”

Savalza thanked his

coaches, teammates, teachers and parents for his success, noting his parents Hank anad Deb never “missed a single one of my games.”

D’Almeida will attend Carleton College in Minneso-ta and major in premed.

Savalza, also an honor student, will go to Western Washington University and major in environmental geol-ogy and minor in secondary

Seventeen-year-old Amanda d’Almeida will share the podium with fellow valedictorian Thomas Lile at Coupeville High School’s graduation June 7.

D’Almeida has attended Coupeville schools since her family moved here when she was 12. She’s been a 4.0 student all the way through middle and high school.

Though she looked at sev-eral schools, d’Almeida has chosen Carleton College in Northfield, Minn., a private liberal arts college that offers

a top biology program.D’Almeida wants to study

pre-med, with an eye toward becoming a physician eventu-ally, but she said, “I wanted the liberal arts too.”

“I chose Carleton from among several schools be-cause I feel like I’ll fit in there,” she said. “Students there seem to be quirky, may-be a bit nerdy, and like me, passionate about what they want to do with their lives.”

D’Almeida’s dream is to work as a pediatrician or surgeon for Doctors Without Borders or aboard the Mercy Ship, the largest non-govern-mental hospital ship in the world, providing free health care, community health education, mental health pro-

grams and agriculture proj-ects in third world countries.

Working in a Chinese orphanage on a non-denom-inational mission in the sum-mer of 2012 helped d’Almeida decide she wanted to become a physician.

“I’ve always wanted to

serve people with my life,” said d’Almeida. “Going to China and seeing the needs in the orphanage made me see how I could do that by be-coming a doctor.”

When d’Almeida comes home for college vacations next year, she won’t be re-

turning to Coupeville. Her fa-ther Dan d’Almeida, popular math and science teacher at Coupeville High School, has accepted a teaching position at Amadeus International School in Vienna. The fam-ily, including younger brother Dawson and mom Cathy, will move there this summer.

‘They’ll probably be there two or three years,” said d’Almeida.

Aside from excelling in ac-ademics, d’Almeida has also been a soccer star during her years in Coupeville schools and was recruited two years ago by Carleton’s soccer coach to play for their team.

She’s been captain of the Coupeville Wolves girls’ soc-cer team since she was sopho-

more, and also plays soccer off-Island for the Northwest Nationals women’s team.

Of her 70 fellow gradu-ates in the CHS Class of 2013, D’Almeida said, “We’re a special class. Even if we don’t become CEOs or president, we’re good community mem-bers. My high school experi-ences has been amazing and memorable because everyone has been so supportive of each other.”

Once she’s in college, it will likely be a few years be-fore she returns to Coupe-ville, but d’Almeida is philo-sophical about the necessity of change.

“I’ll definitely miss it here, but I’m ready to move on to new adventures,” she said.

D’Almeida says she’s ready for new adventures

Thomas Lile will graduate from Coupeville High School on June 7 as co-valedictorian of the Class of 2013, and will accept diplomas for two as-sociate’s degrees from Skagit Valley College on June 21.

A Running Start student for the past two years, Lile has studied biology and phys-ics engineering at SVC while also maintaining a 4.0 grade point average at Coupeville High School.

Next year, when he starts school at the University of Washington, he’ll enter with junior status.

Lile is the son of Grace and Thomas Lile of Green-bank. The family moved here 13 years ago and chose

Coupeville schools for their sons “because my parents heard the schools here were good, “ he said.

Lile said he opted to do Running Start because, “I wanted to get ahead, and it saved two years of college tuition.”

Lile’s older brother Da-vid will also be a junior at UW next year. Lile earned a $3,000 from the UW, and re-cently he learned he’d won a McIntyre Scholarship as well.

“It’s a full-ride scholar-ship for next year,” he said proudly.

Lile hopes to become a bio-engineer, with an em-phasis on doing stem-cell re-search. His long-term goal is

to help find cures for diseases such as Alzheimer’s, diabetes and cancer.

“My family has had per-sonal experience with those three conditions and if I can help find cures, I want to try,” he said.

Lile is considering apply-

ing for the UW’s BS/MS pro-gram to complete his bach-elor’s and master’s degrees in five years.

Of his time at Skagit Valley College, Lile said, “I missed interacting with my friends at high school, but the atmosphere at college helped

me grow as a person and I’m glad I did it.”

In his first two years at CHS, Lile participated in student government as class president, represented the school at the Science Olym-piad and went to state as a sophomore for the Poetry Out Loud contest.

He’s participated with the National Honor Society in community projects all four years of high school.

Another accomplishment he’s proud of is starting a math tutoring group to help fellow students.

“Some kids were strug-gling with Algebra II, and there was no tutoring service here, so Heni Barnes and I

started Math Wizards, which met on Wednesdays,” said Lile.

Other good memories include learning jazz guitar from band teacher Jamar Jenkins.

Lile is already planning his valedictorian speech to his fellow graduates.

“I didn’t expect to be vale-dictorian, and I don’t see my-self as a public speaker, but I’m excited about it,” he said. “I hope to leave a memorable impression.”

“The main thing I want to say to my fellow students is that if you work hard and truly believe in what you’re striving for, it can be accom-plished,” said Lile.

Senior earns not only diploma, but two degrees
