City creates new law on identity theft Ordinance compensates for county prosecution BY GREG ALLMAIN gallmain@fedwaymirror.com
The Federal Way City Council unanimously approved the state’s first misdemeanor level identity theft law.
The new law, as written, allows for the prosecution of identity theft perpetrators when the damages to the victim are $1,000 or less. The new ordinance classified the crime as a gross misdemeanor, meaning those prosecuted under it could face up to a year in jail, a $5,000 fine, or both. The law was created not in response to an observable spike in
low level identity theft, but rather in response to the King County Prosecutor’s Office declining to move forward on such cases at times, said Federal Way city spokesman Chris Carrel. “The problem the ordinance is addressing is the gap between state statute, which defines identity theft as a felony, and King County’s resources for trying felony cases,”
Carrel said. “King County prosecutors sometimes decline identity theft cases due to limited resources. Since the city does not have identity theft in the Federal Way Revised Code, we cannot address those identity theft crimes that occur in Federal Way that King County may decline to prosecute.

A strange and unexpected consequence of the economic downturn since 2008 is the proliferation of abandoned shopping carts throughout local cities. Visit Tacoma, and you’ll find shopping carts sitting forlornly on sidewalks to busy streets, their purpose in life no longer being fulfilled. Some cities, such as Tacoma, have attempted to combat this quickly spreading epidemic by instituting punitive laws, but to little or no effect. In other places, they’ve put certain mechanisms on the carts that stop people from removing them from the property. In Federal Way, local streets and parking lots are monitored by the dedicated volunteer Shopping Cart Recovery Team of Frank Gabreluk, Dan Goede, Mari Ikeda-Gomes, Lottie Kinney and John McLaren. The team has recovered 3,456 carts and returned them to their proper owners. The effort has saved those businesses more than $483,000 in replacement costs, said Federal Way Police Department Cmdr. Chris Norman. Outside of that, the team has also recycled 2,690 pounds of “unidentifiable� carts since its creation. Norman was on hand during the Oct. 4 city coun-
cil meeting to review the work the cart recovery team has done since its inception late last year. “This team has been positively impacting shoppers, retailers, ditches, sidewalks, parking lots, wetlands and woodlands and just about everywhere else since September of 2010,� Norman said. “A need was identified in about August of 2010, when the former recovery business operator decided to cease operations. We basically started to see carts piling up all over the city, and unfortunately, the assisting state statute for shopping cart theft is ineffective and unenforceable.� Norman said the state statute is problematic because it calls for intent to be proven that the person taking the shopping cart meant to deprive the store of it permanently. In most cases, shopping carts are abandoned when people walk home from a store with them, meaning any attempts at prosecuting under the state law would most likely be dismissed. Federal Way looked at what local cities were doing, and found that any punitive measures were contradictory to a “business friendly Federal Way,� Norman said. And so the recovery team was formed. “They use existing assets in the form of a semi-retired police car and a trailer

the emergency operation center owns,â€? Norman said. “There’s a hotline‌and we also added the online reporting option. The volunteers also use our Safe City camera system to spot and report abandoned carts throughout the city.â€? Mayor Skip Priest was impressed with the effort of the cart recovery team and what it’s been able to do in its first year. “Many times we see someone say, ‘There are astounding numbers,’â€? he said. “And I must admit that I was cynically waiting for an ‘astounding’ number, but I was absolutely shocked at 3,456 carts. That is amazing. Those numbers are astounding.â€?

The great Federal Way fish bowl My former editor discouraged reporters from focusing on happenings at the local university campus. He dubbed that self-contained community a “fish bowl.” Aside from the literal definition (a transparent bowl where fish live), dictionaries define the term as “a place that lacks privacy.” To wit, consider the fish bowl where high-profile public officials swim. Metaphorically speaking, they are trapped within those glass walls, on display for all to cheer and jeer. In my editor’s definition, the “fish bowl” represented a narrow view of the region’s overall state of affairs. The word surfaced in his reaction to a story about a feminist protest at the college campus. In the editor’s view, that protest held little relevance for the thousands of taxpayers who would actually read our paper. Most of them probably never thought twice about life at the university. The term “fish bowl” stuck with me. Everyone lives in multiple fish bowls. The only difference between people and fish is that most people leave one fish bowl to explore another. Think of the Puget Sound region as a fish bowl, with its own culture, problems and way of life. Our fish bowl is a lot different than, say, the Southern California fish bowl. Their fish bowl is much more crowded and flaky than the rainy fish bowl of Western Washington. And for a comparison closer to home, consider Eastern Washington’s fish bowl, with a culture that’s more dry and conservative. Remember, this observation of Eastern Washington was made from inside the glass walls of our evergreenladen fish bowl.
Your home is a fish bowl too, and you know best what to make of it. You know every detail within your home’s walls, much like the goldfish who combs every nook of that glass bowl where he lives. Your neighborhood is a fish bowl, your city is another fish bowl, and your county is yet another fish bowl. Which brings us to Federal Way. This city is one of the larger fish bowls in the King County collection. Federal Way’s fish bowl has been customized from the inside by residents and leaders, helping the city stand apart from others. One example is Federal Way’s roads, courtesy of a forward-thinking asphalt overlay program native to this fish bowl. Compared to the potholeridden roads in Seattle’s fish bowl, we can see that Federal Way is doing something right. Consider that residents and leaders in Federal Way had the foresight to form this fish bowl in the first place. With rental housing running rampant and the population growing, incorporating as a city was a critical step toward a better quality of life for the area’s residents. Federal Way created its own fish bowl, giving people a place to improve and refine and call home. Federal Way’s fish bowl brims with potential. The city may never grow outward, but it can and will grow upward. There is a spirit of innovation blowing in the wind, or should I say, bubbling in the water. It is our duty to harness and tap that spirit — and give other fish a reason to look at Federal Way with envy through our shiny glass bowl. Andy Hobbs

October is filled with ways to make being scared into something fun — but it’s also National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. One in three teens reports knowing a friend or peer who has been hit, punched, kicked, slapped or physically hurt by their dating partner. (Teenage Research Unlimited, February 2005). One in four women has experienced intimate partner violence in her lifetime. And though men can also be victims, 85 percent of those who suffer from intimate partner violence are women, according to Eastside Domestic Violence, a Puget Sound Area program. Those are scary statistics and no fun at all. With numbers like these, we’ve got to step up and have more meaningful conversations about violence in relationships. We need to be talking more, and educating ourselves and our youth, about what is healthy and what is not. Most people do not intentionally get involved in a relationship that is violent. Knowing the warning signs and getting out early can literally be the difference between life and death. Here are some red flags.

It’s extremely important to have a safety plan in place when deciding to leave a relationship that has red flags like those listed above. Go to www.edvp.org for more information, or go to www.aardvarc.org/dv/plan.shtml to access specific questions for planning. Both sites have a quick escape button in case you become worried your partner will see you are on the site. Teens have some specific resources available to them. Check out www.loveisrespsect.org. While you’re at it, help them focus on healthy relationships and healthy break-ups. With social networking and cell phones, it’s especially important for teens to have the information they need to behave well and safely when break-ups occur. Earlier this summer, the Boston Public Health Commission co-sponsored a summit for teens on healthy relationship break-ups. [ more JOHNSON page 5 ]

Why I’m voting for Celski for council I have lived in Federal Way for 34 years and after serious con-
sideration, I have decided to vote for Bob Celski for city council position 5. Here’s why: 1. He’s a hometown guy, a graduate of Federal Way High School. He knows the needs of our community. 2. He’s smart, a graduate of the United States Military Academy at
West Point. 3. He’s a patriot, a veteran with a notable service record. 4. His business career working with multimillion-dollar budgets is critical to effecting change needed for balance in Federal Way. In short, I think Bob Celski is a good man. For more information, go to www.electcelski.com.

" GFX RVFTUJPOT GPS '8 4DIPPM #PBSE DBOEJEBUFT The four Federal Way School Board candidates in two contested races participated in a questionnaire from The Mirror. Their answers are below. Debates for school board, Lakehaven and South King fire commissioners will run 5 to 8 p.m. Oct. 12 at Federal Way High School’s little theater. ttt Q: Please discuss one positive aspect and one negative aspect of the school district’s academic acceleration policy, which has dramatically increased the enrollment of students in advanced classes.
t (BJM $SBCUSFF QPTJUJPO All students get a chance to prepare for college in academic acceleration classes. Many students and teachers not prepared for these classes. t $MBJSF 8JMTPO QPTJUJPO The district academic acceleration policy provides opportunity for all students meeting standards, access to classes that provide rigor and opportunity. The new policy assures access to all students who meet standard and includes parents in the decision making process if “opting out� makes sense for individual students. Each student, at any level, deserves rigor in their education and opportunity for success. The implementation may not have predicted the concerns brought by parents. All stakeholders need an opportunity to hear about, and provide input on, changes that will be impacting children or families — prior to their implementation. It is critical and essential to provide a forum for dialogue, clarity, understanding and problem solving. Parents have a right and a responsibility to advocate for the best interest of their child. The school board has a responsibility to make decisions based on the best interest of all students. t %BOOZ 1FUFSTPO QPTJUJPO A positive aspect is that it has allowed more students to be placed in rigorous classes that they should be enrolled in and can succeed. The greater amount of students now taking these courses is a step in the right direction. A negative aspect is that it is not an easy transition
with the need for greater parent involvement and teacher support. Effective communication is vital in moving forward as we have seen during our school board meetings this fall. t -J[ %SBLF QPTJUJPO A positive aspect of the academic acceleration policy has been an increase of students enrolling in academically accelerated classes who would otherwise not have taken advanced classes. Opening up academic acceleration opportunities for disadvantaged students cannot be at the expense of lowering academic excellence for anyone. A negative aspect of the school district’s academic acceleration policy is the mode of communication with parents, students and teachers. In some schools it was poor and in other schools it was very poor. Some students were placed in classes they did not want and were not prepared to take. Teacher preparation was not sufficient to enable teachers to successfully challenge and teach a wider ability range of students enrolling in these advanced classes. As a result, some students experienced significant academic failure, either because the material was too hard, or too easy. ttt Q: Why do you think the school district has a 30 percent dropout rate? t (BJM $SBCUSFF QPTJUJPO Dropout rate is from students not learning what is needed in elementary grades, making learning a priority. Also this community has many people moving in and out of district. t $MBJSF 8JMTPO QPTJUJPO Students stay in school if there is a caring adult in their life. Students need to have hope, support and expectations. The goal is not just to graduate from high school, but to graduate from high school ready to enter and succeed in college. Third grade reading proficiency is one of the biggest indicators of future school success. Attention needs to be focused in the early years — while still attending to the immediate needs of struggling students currently in middle and high school. Aligning curriculum in early learning (prenatal to third grade) will increase the number of children entering school ready for kindergarten, also an important indicator of future academic suc-

For success, it is critical and essential to focus on engaging and Q: How can Federal Way involving parents in meaningful schools win the fight for fair ways, as well as continuing to funding from the state? reach out to the broader Federal Way community. t (BJM $SBCUSFF QPTJUJPO t %BOOZ 1FUFSTPO QPTJUJPO We need to elect legislators who Some of our students come from care about students.

1977 Basic Education Act. A salary schedule was formed at the time that allowed some districts to pay salaries for teachers, administrators and other staff higher than the state average. Over the years, the percentage difference has significantly widened the gap between other districts and Federal Way. As a member of the school board, I would reach out to all Federal Way stakeholders and seek to be board legislative liaison to work with Sen. Tracey Eide to generate awareness of the inequities of state funding within our community. ttt Q: School districts across the country have adopted the Standards Based Education (SBE) idea in an attempt to meet both state and federal requirements. In what ways will this policy improve students’ performance? t (BJM $SBCUSFF QPTJUJPO Standards Based Education should inspire students, by letting them know what is expected to succeed and that all are taught and graded fairly. Knowing they are ready for each level, having learned what is needed for the next grade. t $MBJSF 8JMTPO QPTJUJPO Outcomes for students need to be based on clear and specific objectives and learning targets which is what Standards Based Education (SBE) provides. Federal Way SBE is locally designed and reflects essential learning targets in core content areas. This allows students, teachers, and families to see what students need to know as well as where each student is in their individual progress. SBE provides clear expectations for specific learning targets on core content areas/ subjects in the district. While SBE is a set of standardized academic objectives and learning targets, the approaches and supports for students are individualized. As a parent I can tell exactly what my child needs to know in the core content area and specifically, each learning target. Knowing how to support my child by knowing exactly what my child needs to know and where my child is, will improve performance. t %BOOZ 1FUFSTPO QPTJUJPO Standards Based Education makes learning expectations and grading systems clearly defined in our classrooms. It is about subject
mastery, not simply classroom compliance. By making learning targets clear for all, our students and parents know what is expected and our teaching community is enhanced by its greater ability to collaborate. Students know what is expected to perform well and their progress is represented in the grade they receive. When they are struggling in a particular standard, parents and teachers are able to identify and focus on the areas needed for success. t -J[ %SBLF QPTJUJPO Standards Based Education (SBE) clearly identifies for teachers priority standards to be taught and, within these standards, what skills and knowledge are the priority. When applied appropriately, these standards give clarity to the learning goals while freeing the teacher to use individualized tuition to bring the student to the required standards. SBE should foster caring about the individual student. When teachers care, students stay in school. Through the development of Power Standards, the identified standards being taught, students will be more closely engaged in the learning process and have a clear picture of what is expected of them in order to be successful. Learning goals will be a focus between teacher and student, and students will be given multiple opportunities to achieve these goals. Parents will be aware of their child’s progress on any given standard through report cards and progress reported online. Creating a consistent and clear learning system throughout the district enables everyone to communicate with each other more easily and more powerfully.

an idea of starting neighborhood community councils where residents “could come to the city as one voice.� Honda said this cooperation could train future leaders and create a more positive perception of Federal Way. Honda wants to use her 30-plus years of experience in city affairs to continue building relationships and “show we’re open for business in Federal Way.� Honda wants to examine zoning in the city to remove any barriers for businesses to come here. She also proposed a visitors center for Federal Way. Following military service in Vietnam, Flygare spent three-plus decades in the court reporting business. Flygare highlighted his experience in building budgets and understanding profit-loss statements. “I’ve been in business 32 years,� he said. “I’m a successful businessman. Otherwise, I’d be out of business.� Flygare wants to maintain current businesses while bringing new businesses to Federal Way and complementing the future Crystal Palace, a mixed-use site slated for downtown. Flygare wants to focus on parks and amenities such as the community center, along with popular family events like the Federal Way Farmers Market and Fourth of July celebration. Flygare said one path to job creation is to reach out to businesses through trade shows and conventions in Federal Way. As for the perception of crime in Federal Way, Flygare said block watch programs could be one key to creating safer neighborhoods. On the issue of term limits for council members and the mayor, Flygare said he opposes them, while Honda did not take a stance. Both candidates said any annexation attempt east of Federal Way should be decided by voters. On saving money in the city budget, Flygare suggested that medical coverage for city employees must be reduced, and said he has observed a positive trend in sales tax revenue in the August expense report. Honda also indicated that medical benefits were on the table, but that no programs can be cut. Both candidates support the
future performing arts and civic center. Honda said now is the time to build it. Flygare called the center a jewel that can attract more businesses, create more jobs and bring more tax dollars to Federal Way. As for the projected population growth in Federal Way, Flygare emphasized the need for more mass transit. Honda said the city must be prepared to accommodate the extra population with water, sewer and roads.
Position 5: Jack Dovey vs. Bob Celski Jack Dovey, the incumbent, was first appointed to the council in 1995 to fill a vacant position. He elected to that position in 1996. After a hiatus, he returned to the council in 2003, following an appointment to a vacant seat. He was re-elected in 2007. Dovey co-owns a chain of Bluewater Wireless stores in the region. Bob Celski is a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and served in the U.S. Army for more than a decade. Celski spent 15 years in the petroleum industry in management and executive positions, and has been running his own small business in Federal Way as a business consultant, nutrition coach and property manager. He presently works for IPC (USA) in Tacoma. Dovey said he brings valuable business experience. “I’m one of those guys that can get things done,� said Dovey, pointing to past accomplishments including a committee that made Celebration Park a reality in the 1990s. As for economic development, Dovey said the city must be more flexible in zoning while doing everything in its power to attract businesses and entrepreneurs. Dovey said he will continue to help build business clusters, including those involved with a medical device incubator called Cascadia MedTech Association, which he helped launch. He said these business clusters are key to creating more jobs that pay living wages in Federal Way. As for changing a so-called perception that Federal Way has a high crime rate, both Celski and Dovey noted the importance of neighbors getting to know one an-

other and establishing neighborhood resources/block watches. As for cutting the city budget, Dovey noted recent savings from lower-cost insurance for city employees. He said bringing in more businesses, as opposed to cutting programs and services, is the way to go. Celski said he has analyzed the city’s revenues and expenses. He said the city employees’ overall benefits are too generous and due to increase in cost. Both candidates support a future performing arts and civic center. Both stressed the need to “do it right� and turn it into a successful business. Among Federal Way’s biggest challenges is changing the city codes that are neither friendly nor viable to businesses, Celski said. Dovey said sales tax leakage is the biggest problem, and the city needs to get more residents shopping in Federal Way. Celski said safe neighborhoods are critical to raising Federal Way’s quality of life as well as giving businesses a reason to locate here. “You can’t have a good quality of life unless you feel safe,� he said. Dovey said the key to raising quality of life is to engage citizens to get them involved with activities such as mentoring, community gardens and the farmers market, for example.

As for term limits on council members and the mayor, Dovey said he would only support term limits if residents voted for them. Celski supports term limits because he believes potential candidates are dissuaded from running for elections because of the cost. Dovey opposes any annexation attempt of unincorporated King County east of I-5 because “it’s a money-losing deal� for public services. Celski said annexation is up to those citizens, but said the area would fit better in Federal Way than Auburn. “It would be good for our tax base,� Celski said.
Dini Duclos, who is CEO of the Multi-Service Center, was first elected to the council in November 2007. She was appointed deputy mayor in January 2010. Challenging her is political newcomer Keith Tyler, a 10-year resident of Federal Way who works in technology and computer science. Duclos noted her work with the Multi-Service Center, building the charity from a $3 million budget to a $15 million budget. She has also served on several city boards including the Planning Commission and has experience in fundraising for large projects such as Celebration Park. Duclos’ top priority is the completion of a performing arts and civic center, which through a public-private partnership can open doors for the community and spark downtown development. Such a facility, she said, will expose residents and especially youth to arts and culture that they may not have otherwise found. Duclos also sees synergy among multiple ideas for downtown projects alongside the arts center, including a veterans memorial and the proposed Crystal Palace, a mixed-use facility. “Small businesses really do anchor our community,� she said, lauding a pair of business incubators such as SSRBI and Cascadia MedTech Association. As for term limits, Duclos does not oppose them: “I term limit myself.� Duclos is seeking one more term to finish what she started, she said. Tyler said he is against mandatory term limits: “If
people don’t want you anymore, elect someone else.� As for the city’s budget, Duclos said she will spend conservatively, control medical costs and work with the city’s businesses. Tyler said he will address the efficiency of city vehicles, for example, and find ways to do things cheaper — either in-house or by consolidating services. Tyler said his experience in computers and technology give him the ability to solve problems. Among his top priorities are revising city codes that hamper businesses and act like roadblocks. “We need to make it so that businesses don’t have impediments,� he said, adding that relaxed sign codes can help “get people closer to businesses.� Tyler supports the future performing arts and civic center and hopes it will attract more businesses to downtown Federal Way. It is a key component to improving Federal Way’s image and diversifying entertainment while attracting people from outside the community, he said. He favors increasing downtown density because of an outdated “suburban legacy� that is no longer an effective model for Federal Way. Tyler wants to find ways to keep Federal Way residents in their own backyard when it comes to shopping, services and entertainment. “It should all be right here,� he said. Tyler said successful projects in neighboring cities, such as Kent Station and Renton Landing, indicate that the city has fallen behind. “Fear holds us back,� he said. As for annexation of unincorporated King County, Duclos said it’s up to those citizens, and that if they say yes, their zoning should be grandfathered in. However, that area would not bring enough tax revenue, she said. Tyler said he is in favor of that section becoming a part of Federal Way. As for battling a so-called perception of crime in Federal Way, both Duclos and Tyler suggested more proactive measures. Tyler said: “We need to give people reasons to look at us in a different light.� Duclos suggested more education about safety and locking doors, for example, teaching people how to protect themselves.

Skin care therapy and the power of touch BY ANDY HOBBS editor@federalwaymirror.com
Cancer patients who undergo chemotherapy and radiation treatments often suffer visible — and painful — side effects on their skin. The treatments, while killing cancer cells, also affect healthy cells including the skin and nails. Patients can suffer from varying degrees of hair loss, rashes, dry skin, peeling, blisters, swelling and loss of feeling. Medical aestheticians like Becky Kuehn are licensed to work with these ailments caused by cancer treatments. Tucked away at the St. Francis Hospital Women’s Health and Breast Center in Federal Way, Kuehn’s massage room is all about comfort, with soothing background music and a calmingly clean scent. From facial skin treatments to hand, foot and scalp massages, each session aims to nourish the patient’s skin — and soul. “I tell them, this is your time, this is all about you,� she said of her oncology patients, who talk about whatever they want to talk about — if they choose to talk at all. In this room, the power of touch is an important part of healing. The therapy, delivered by Kuehn’s hands and supported with her listening ears, soothes patients’ emotional side. Sometimes oncology patients fall asleep during treatment, which Kuehn considers a compliment. “I try to really be present in the moment with every person,� said Kuehn, herself a comforting presence. “I love what I do. It’s a positive thing.�
Kuehn empathizes with the traumatic shock of a cancer diagnosis because she’s been through it herself. She was diagnosed with uterine cancer at age 18, shortly after getting married. It took one chemotherapy treatment for the cancer to go away for good, and 34 years later, she remains cancer-free. Through her Evergreen SkinCare Solutions, Kuehn treats around four people a day — mostly breast cancer patients, but all cancer patients are welcome — at St. Francis. She also works for the Jane T. Russell Cancer Care Center at St. Anthony’s Hospital in Gig Harbor. A special fund is available for patients who cannot afford a treatment. The program’s first fundraiser was held Sept. 17. The Federal Way Arthur Murray School of Dance hosted a gala that raised about $2,000 for the therapy program. After expenses, 38 people will get free treatments, Kuehn said. More fundraisers are on the horizon.
Breast cancer and skin irritation According to the Komen Foundation, about 30 percent of people who undergo radiation therapy for breast cancer have skin irritation. The treated breast may also be rough to the touch, red (like a sunburn) and a little swollen. Sometimes

A radiation oncologist may suggest special creams to ease this discomfort. Sometimes the skin peels further and the area may become tender and sensitive. This is most common in the skin folds and the underside of the breast. If this occurs, your oncologist or nurse can give you creams and pads to make the area more comfortable.

Top 10 reasons to volunteer in Federal Way parks BY LINA ROSE Project manager, EarthCorps
Federal Way is home to some of the most unique and pristine urban wetlands holding rich human and natural history. Throughout the years, many dedicated community members through the Friends of the Hylebos have invested time and heart into helping these forested wetlands become healthier ecosystems. Join us in protecting the health of the Hylebos Watershed as we enter into planting season. Even though we always think of the Northwest as a perpetually rainy region, we actually experience drought conditions here in the summer. Planting in the fall and winter assures that new plants have time in wet soil to establish their root systems thereby giving them a far better chance at survival. The colder temperatures also allow plants to become dormant so they are much more resilient to transplanting. Ten reasons to volunteer in Federal Way parks: 10. Learn how to identify Northwest native plants and get landscaping tips on how to use more native species in your garden. Wondering what that odd plant in your yard is? Learn how to identify and get some skills to manage invasive plants on your property. 9. Federal Way parks have a deep and rich history. Learn their stories. 8. Plant a tree in your local park and watch it grow up. 7. Come and meet other community members who also care about the health of Federal Way’s environment. 6. Got school or commu-
nity service hours to fulfill? Our events are a great way to obtain hours without a huge time commitment. Did I mention that our events are really fun and engaging? 5. Volunteer and get some hands on experience with environmental restoration. If you are interested in an environmental career, come build your skills and resume. 4. Are you a teacher? Give your class an amazing hands-on service learning experience. 3. Families, come join us! Our events are a great way to instill a service ethic in children through a fun, educational and rewarding experience in nature. 2. Help us celebrate our Climate Action Month from Oct. 15 through Nov. 12, a month-long series of events focused on creating a healthier environment through tree planting and sustainable transportation. For more information, visit climateactionmonth.org 1. Give back to your community! What better way to motivate yourself to get outside this fall and winter than doing environmental service. Volunteering in parks makes a difference and your help is needed!
php. Upcoming events will be Oct. 15 at West Hylebos Wetlands, Nov. 12 at Dumas Bay and Dec. 3 at Brooklake Blueberry Farm. Don’t want to get muddy? Join us at our annual auction on Oct. 22.
Jill Thomas and her Northwest Ecology class from Green River Community College toured the West Hylebos Wetlands Park on Oct. 4. Thomas regularly takes her classes to the Federal Way site.

TJ cross country tops Tahoma FROM STAFF REPORTS
Sports contact: Casey Olson colson@federalwaymirror.com or (253) 925-5565
The Thomas Jefferson High School girls cross country team defeated Kentridge and Tahoma high schools Oct. 5 — handing the previously unbeaten Tahoma its first league loss in five years. Tahoma is also the third-ranked team in the state. TJ coach Paul Ruston said the key to victory over this top SPSL North opponent came down to tough running. “We beat Tahoma. The good news is, that’s great. The tough news is, we gotta see them three more times,” said Ruston, noting that Tahoma’s last loss
in 2006 came from his TJ runners. “We’re focused on keeping things moving along and working toward the end of the season.” The unranked Raiders now sport a 6-0 record.

Seattle University women’s soccer senior defender Jordan Salisbury was named a CollegeSoccer360.com Primetime Performer of the Week after helping the Redhawks (7-3-0) put together a perfect weekend of work at the UNLV NIKE Invitational, which ended Sept. 18. At the tournament, Salisbury was a major contributor in the Redhawks comefrom-behind victory over host-UNLV on Sept. 16. After allowing the Rebels to score an early go-ahead goal, the veteran defender rallied the Redhawk defensive efforts to prevent UNLV from getting on the board again. Their efforts also allowed the SU offense to send in a pair of second half goals to earn a 2-1 victory. Two days later, the Todd Beamer High School graduate connected with Mary Hill’s free kick to head in the Redhawks opening goal in their 3-1 victory over San Diego State, who [ more GRADS page 15 ]

The proposed ordinance will create a new section to the Federal Way Revised Code for identity theft and give city prosecutors the tools to file misdemeanor charges if or when felony charges are declined.� As written, those found guilty under the new law are “liable for civil damages of $1,000 or actual damages, whichever is greater, including costs to repair the victim’s credit record and reasonable attorneys’ fees as determined by the courts.� A person charged under the ordinance doesn’t have to live within Federal Way, only the victim, according to the ordinance. It also notes that “the provisions of this section do not apply to any person who obtains another person’s drivers license or other form of identification for the sole purpose of misrepresenting his or her age.�
Mia Franklin read a prepared letter to the council, outlining a hierarchy of hiring for the proposed project. “Establish a local hiring plan, including goals for local hiring,� she read. “This plan should explicitly identify goals for hiring from the following populations in the following order: Unemployed and/or economically disadvantaged workers currently residing in Federal Way. Two: unemployed and/or economically disadvantaged workers from South King County, including South Seattle neighborhoods, Renton, Tukwila, SeaTac, Des Moines, Kent and Auburn.� Franklin added that the application and hiring process should be “transparent,� and that the recruitment process should be heavily focused on Federal Way and the surrounding South King County communities. Working Washington suggested that the contractors report their hiring to the city on a quarterly basis for the duration of the project. “Again, we are happy to see Federal Way explore the development of the Crystal Palace,� Franklin said. “We hope by these actions, the city can ensure the residents of Federal Way and South King County have a fair chance at the jobs created by this investment.�
Background information ARCADD, an architecture firm based in West Newton, Mass., was selected by the Federal Way City Council to move forward on a proposed “Crystal Palace� design at the vacant parking lot on 20th Avenue South. During the council’s July 19 meeting, ARCADD president Dr. Hisham Ashkouri presented an ambitious design of flowing metal and glass structures.
