New screeninyg
goes smoothl at
courthouse
By KEVAN MOORE
The installation of a new weapons
screening station at the Mason County
courthouse seems to have gone off with-
out a hitch.
"It seems to b e going over fairly well,"
said Mason County Sheriffs Office Chief
Deputy Dean Byrd. "There are some mi-
nor complaints about not getting in on
the Fifth Street side, but we really need
to do that so that everybody can be fun-
neled in and screened for weapons. In
order to maintain the integrity of our se-
curity system, people need to be entering
the courthouse from one entrance."
That single entrance, from the Fourth
Street side of the building, now includes
an x-ray machine, a metal detector and
two trained deputies. So far, wait times
have been relatively short.
"It's a minor inconvenience for a large
increase in security," Byrd said. "I don't
think there will be any large back-ups at
the courthouse, but there of course could
be an occasional delay. So far, though,
we're very pleased with the success we've
experienced."

Whitman to run fo
By NATALIE JOHNSON
Union resident Timothy P. Whit-
man announced Monday his plans
to run for Mason County Fire Dis-
trict Six commissioner.
Whitman, who has lived in Ma-
son County since 2007, and cur-
rently resides at Alderbrook with
his wife Jubilee, served with the
Edmonds Fire Department for more
than 32 years. He retired as assis-
tant chief in 1997.
"I'm running for District 6 Fire
Commissioner because I believe my
experience allows me to understand
the complexities of the job," Whit-
man says.
