After the commissioners voted
3-0 to increase the contribution,
Matayoshi listed some of the EDC's
2006 highlights. Those included
working on retaining and expand-
ing more than 14 local companies;
working on several recruitment
leads for companies, including
es, employment and work force
numbers for potential clients.
The port's contribution to the
EDC last year totaled $21,000. Of
that $15,000 came in a direct con-

various projects done by the EDC

Man who bashed
dogcatcher's car
gets prison term
A 23-year-old Shelton man with
an extensive criminal history who
broke into the city pound and
bashed a patrol vehicle was sen-
tenced in Mason County Superior
Court to over five years in prison.
Shane Lee Havens of 1.622
Boundary Street was sentenced
on February 26 to 65 months for
burglary in the second degree,
and was given a concurrent sen-
tence of 57 months for malicious
mischief in the first degree. Judge
James Sawyer denied a request
for sentencing under the Drug Of-
fender Sentencing Alternative.
Havens pied guilty to charges
filed after he was arrested on
August 21 by Detective Harry
Heldreth of the Shelton Police
Department, who was investi-
gating a report of vandalism to a
city-owned vehicle at the Shelton
Animal Shelter, 902 Pine Street,
on August 1. Havens allegedly
entered the fenced area and used
an ax to damage a vehicle used by
Animal Control Officer Bob Dun-
lap.
Dunlap reported that he had
impounded a vehicle belonging to
Havens the day before, July 31,
and described Havens as very up-
set. A companion told police that
Havens said he was going to get
even with the animal control offi-
cer. Deputy Prosecutor Mike Dor-
cy told the court that Havens had
an offender score of 9 for previous
offenses that included attempted
robbery and burglaries as a juve-
nile and as an adult.
A tearful Havens, who asked
for a drug-offender sentencing
option, told the court he has a
3-year-old daughter and said he
wants to get out of the drug-fu-
eled lifestyle he has lived since he
was a youngster. "Both my par-
ents are heroin addicts," he said.
"I'm asking - begging - you to let
me get a DOSA."
"The problem I have in this
case," Judge James Sawyer told
Havens, "is that this wasn't a
crime to support the habit. This
was vindictivness: Impound my
car and see what it gets you.
When a person acts out of revenge
they have to be willing to reap the
grain they sow. I can't see this
case is drug-related.
"No doubt about it, you need
treatment," the judge told Ita-
vens. "But there are many other
alternatives. You need to investi-
gate those. Ask while you are in-
carcerated."
Judge Sawyer said there would
be no post-release supervision
and imposed legal financial ob-
ligations of $1,109.50 in court
costs, $500 to the crime victims'
compensation fund and $450 in
attorney-fee recoupment. Restitu-
tion is to be determined at a hear-
ing set for June 25.
