Skanska USA's Trevor Wyckoff talks Vancouver development
By submitting your information you are agreeing to our Privacy Policy and User Agreement . Skanska's GM says the Vancouver building department is the best he's ever worked with. After 25 years working for Skanska USA, Trevor Wyckoff in December took over as general manager for the firm's Oregon and Southwest Washington region. He's a 30-year Vancouver resident and said more than 50 of the firm's craft and salaried employees call SW Washington home. Wyckoff sat down with Portland Business Journal Publisher Candace Beeke on April 10 to kick off the PBJ's first ever Grow Vancouver event, held at the AC Hotel on the city's waterfront. GET TO KNOW YOUR CITY Find Local Events Near You Connect with a community of local professionals. Explore All Events See also: The two talked about what makes Vancouver a good market for projects. Here are lightly edited takeaways from the conversation. On why Vancouver is a prime market for development The building department here is by far and away the best that I've ever had the opportunity to work with. The last two projects that we've done, the Mountain View High School and the School for the Deaf, we had expectations on our side and the client side for duration, for permitting, and they were probably tight. We met early on with the building department, went through what we were hoping to get out of permit timelines and then they set their expectations. It was extraordinarily collaborative process. (There is also) a large group of subcontractors and a large craft contingent based here in Clark County, so when we do projects in Vancouver, we know that we're going to get really good subcontractor participation. On how the Vancouver Waterfront has been a "game changer" I think this waterfront is one. I remember around 20 years ago when I first heard about this project. I'd been living in Vancouver for about 10 years, and I wasn't sure if it would actually take off. At the time, my wife and I wouldn't come downtown. Weekends and evenings, you would not see people downtown at all in Vancouver. What's happened over the last several years here has been a real game changer. As a community member, the pride that I have in what's happened here in this waterfront, and what that's done for the city of Vancouver, it's just amazing. On Skanska's work in Vancouver We're very excited about the growth that's happening here in Vancouver and the opportunities that will present for us as a company. So we're making a conscious effort to put more of a focus on Southwest Washington and Vancouver. One thing that is extremely exciting to us is that recently we were awarded the city of Vancouver's Maintenance and Operations Center. That is a project that we have been chasing, and we identified about three or four years ago as one that we really wanted to win.

Texas man sentenced for sexual abuse of 12-year-old in Utah
SALT LAKE CITY () — A Texas man who traveled to Utah to sexually abuse a 12-year-old victim in 2024 has been sentenced by a U.S. District Court Judge. Carl William Wyckoff, 25, pleaded guilty to transportation of a minor with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity. He initially faced two additional charges — transfer of obscenity to a minor and coercion and enticement — which were dismissed upon sentencing. A press release from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Utah states that Wyckoff exchanged messages with the 12-year-old victim on an online game. At the time, Wyckoff believed she was an adult and began exchanging sexual messages and images. According to the attorney's office, when she revealed she was underage, Wyckoff continued these inappropriate conversations. Timeline in Kent Cody Barlow's deadly DUI crash that killed two 3-year-olds During 2024, Wyckoff traveled from his home in New Boston, Texas, to Arizona between April 13 and April 14. According to court documents, he met the 12-year-old victim there and brought her to Utah to engage in unlawful sexual activity. The FBI Salt Lake City Field Office investigated this case, and Assistant United States Attorney Chris Burton prosecuted. U.S. District Court Chief Judge Robert J. Shelby sentenced Wyckoff to 135 months' imprisonment and a lifetime of supervised release, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

‘No choice but to shop abroad': East Providence bead shop owner worried about Trump's tariffs
EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — For Leah Wyckoff, opening her own bead shop has always been a lifelong dream. That dream became a reality on June 1, 2024. Wyckoff told 12 News her East Providence shop, Bead Chroma, attracts so-called 'beaders' from far and wide. 'I sell jewelry-making supplies locally and to those across New England,' Wyckoff said, noting that some beaders will drive 'several hours' to visit her Warren Avenue store. Wyckoff, who dove headfirst into the beading world as a teenager, also sells her supplies online through her Etsy shop. 'It's niche. It really is,' she continued. 'There are few bead stores left.' Wyckoff's goal since opening her brick-and-mortar shop last summer has been to coax beaders back into stores like hers. 'I think COVID taught a lot of beaders how to become comfortable with shopping online,' Wyckoff explained. 'Now it is my job to bring them back and show them what a brick-and-mortar store can do for them.' That's why Wyckoff is 'terrified' of President Donald Trump's tariffs taking full effect. 'I'm taking it one day at a time,' she said. 'It's hard for me to know which moves I should be making.' Trump believes the tariffs will spur manufacturing within the United States and in turn create more jobs. But Wyckoff told 12 News it's not that easy, especially when it comes to beads. 'Beads have been around for hundreds and hundreds of years — long before the United States was industrialized,' Wyckoff explained. '[Beads] have already been perfected by other countries.' 'Our best seed beads come from Japan. The best crystal beads come from Austria,' she continued. 'The best glass beads? From the Czech Republic. There are also a lot of supplies manufactured in China that aren't manufactured anywhere else. I have no choice but to shop abroad.' Jewelry-making tools typically aren't sold in the United States either, according to Wyckoff, because other countries have been making them for centuries. Wyckoff said she's already noticed price hikes across the board. She has also heard from several of her suppliers abroad who are implementing their own tariffs due to the 'uncertain and unstable' market. If and when Trump's tariffs take full effect, Wyckoff said she won't be able to eat that cost. 'I will have to pass them onto my customers in some way,' she said. 'I'll try to make it as painless as possible, but my business would close if I didn't do that.' Wyckoff prides herself in carrying a variety of beads, ranging from affordable seed beads to higher-end crystals. For example, Wyckoff said the beads she buys from Japan are perfect, precise and 'already expensive as it is.' 'To now have to raise those prices even higher is really unfortunate,' she said. The tariffs will also impact her more affordable beads and could drive customers away. 'Everything I carry is going to go up,' she said. 'It's scary.' Wyckoff is thrilled her shop will be celebrating its one-year anniversary this summer, but she's also worried that Bead Chroma's success will be short-lived. 'Shopping online opened up a world for [beaders] of sources to go to,' she said. 'Now I have to get them back in here, and it is going to be that much tougher if I have to raise my prices because of these tariffs.' In the meantime, Wyckoff is urging everyone to support small businesses as much as possible. 'Just look at what a small business can do for you that a website can't do,' she said. 'To me, that is worth paying a little bit more.' Bead Chroma also offers jewelry-making classes and workshops for beaders of varying skill levels.
