Bothell considers regional fire authority to replace fire department BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@bothell-reporter.com
The cost of fire and emergency services continues to rise each year and many cities struggle to keep up. Bothell is no different. The Bothell City Council voted June 18 to direct city

staff to start looking into the possibility of forming a regional fire authority. The controversial move could ultimately cut costs and increase services. A regional fire authority would replace the Bothell Fire Department and potentially merge services
with departments in other cities. The city of Kirkland is also looking into the idea, according to one Bothell City Council member. The benefit is better coordination and lower overhead, effectively reducing redundancies, city staff said. “A [regional fire author-

A hazing incident connected with the Inglemoor High School group “The Naked Vikes” shocked the Northshore community and beyond this week. Snohomish County Deputies found 12 males, ages 16 to 18, on Monday night in a wooded area in north Bothell after they received a 911 call from nearby residents. Seven of the boys were identified as victims and were bent over a log with open wounds from being struck with switches. Police have identified five potential suspects connected with the Naked Vikes. But now almost everyone, including the parents of the victims, are not talking about the incident. “None of the other parents are coming forward and I should not be the only one,” said Sara Walvatne, whose son James Walvatne was
one of the victims. “It was criminal what happened and now none of the boys will say anything. I am appalled that no one else will come forward.” Sara Walvatne said that a parent of another victim told her he would not talk to the media or police because he is afraid that his son will lose his scholarship. She said that James’ father was planning to meet with an attorney about the incident. “How do you lose a scholarship for being the victim?” asked Sara Walvatne. “It doesn’t make any sense.” James Walvatne has also stopped talking. “We are trying to get him to understand that people need to know about this,” said Sara Walvatne. She also said that she heard another hazing incident, like the one her son was involved in, took place last year. The police were also called in that case as well but no charges [ more HAZING page 6 ]

residents displaced. Officials could not comment on whether more residents will be displaced because of the fire damage to neighboring mobile homes. Investigators will have plenty of witnesses. Residents poured into the park’s streets to watch the crews put out the flames. More than eight trucks responded to the blaze from Bothell, Woodinville, Shoreline, Kirkland and Northshore Fire. Firefighters have to use precaution when the outside temperature is near record levels as temperatures reached into the 90s on Monday. More firefighters are needed as the temperatures climb during the summer months. “During a typical structure fire there are rules that say when your [air] tank is empty you have to come out and drink a bottle of water,” said Johnson. “But in this situation when they run out of their second

Yes: 74.1% No: 25.9%
he Bothell/Kenmore Reporter has produced 19 stories and counting on the Susann Smith murder case. All of those stories have appeared online as soon as they were ready to be published. Many had to be combined to run in print. I have personally written 15 of those 19 stories and it never gets easier. Any case this horrific impacts all who write about it - and read about it. While reporting in Kirkland, I had to cover many uncomfortable stories. Kirkland resident Leonid Milkin was in Iraq serving our country when his neighbor Conner Schierman killed Milkin’s wife, sister-in-law and two children and burned down their home to cover up the crime. Schierman is now sitting on Washington State’s death row. The details of the case were brutal. The fact that it involved two children was difficult for anyone to talk about. It is not something from which you can detach yourself. I also covered a fatal DUI accident that has stayed with me. Kirkland resident Steve Lacey was killed and left a wife and two children behind. As a father and husband, it is difficult to imagine how that family has dealt with the aftermath. The accident was so horrific it helped to get Washington State DUI laws strengthened. Snohomish resident Patrick Rexroat is now serving time in a Washington State prison for the crime. While the details of those two stories and the Susann Smith murder have some similarities, the aftermath affects every survivor in a different way. Smith’s children are in the custody of Washington State Child Protective Services. They no longer have a mother and their father is accused of killing her. Their lives are the ones that are impacted the most other than Susann Smith in this case. Their futures

The search warrant documents were detailed and gruesome at times. As the community paper of record for both Bothell and Kenmore we have tried to not over-hype or sensationalize the events and sanitize some of the information as much as possible. But we also have the job of informing the community of what is happening, and minimizing the gruesome details can give the impression that the events weren’t so bad. We want residents to have the facts and not rumor or innuendo. We will continue to follow this case as it moves forward. We know the community wants answers as to what happened on the weekend of Feb. 12, and whether the police and prosecutor are right about the events or Alan Smith.

We have tried to cover this story from all angles. Neighbors have come to us wanting answers and help. We almost never quote individuals without attribution. But the circumstances dictated that we must get accurate information out to neighbors and the community as a whole without potentially endangering innocent people.

We purposely did not print their names, despite the fact that the search warrant documents were public record and anyone could obtain them. But we felt it was important for the
TWO SENSE
Question of the week:
The city of Kenmore has done it again! During a recent Kenmore City Council meeting the city adopted new ordinances with no written versions of the ordinances for the audience to read. Nor were they projected on the City Hall audio/video system. With some staff explanation and no debate on the merits, they voted. Even after citizens’ comments pointed out deficiencies in what they had heard in ordinances, the five council members in attendance passed all the measures. Five to zero. More than a year ago, Councilman Allen Van Ness had requested that all new ordinances be viewed side-by-side with the old ordinance showing all the red line changes. He was ignored by Kenmore city staff. Of concern is that the new ordinance gives greater powers of eminent domain to the city with less oversight and less ability for property owners to air their grievances in court. The city wishes to be able to take property and force improvements before residents can go to court. The city would also like to have the ability to level excessive fines when residents
and businesses refuse to proceed with city-mandated “improvements.” A lack of grace time for residents and businesses to fight a mandated improvement is business as usual: business owners that will be affected by the 90 percent finished design and drawn schematics for State Route 522 have not yet seen the design work up or schematics, and have not been extended the courtesy of face-to-face meetings with the design team. At the meeting in attendance was the owner of the Tie Ho Restaurant who spoke through an interpreter that he was willing to work with the city but needed more information. If the city takes away even one parking spot, such action will have a dramatic effect on his bottom line profit. Citizens have not been asked how the renovation of SR-522 should be drawn. It is feared, and likely, this lack of communication means redevelopment will include a wall of separation between northbound traffic and businesses north of 522. I believe we want a city that cares to know what helps the residents and businesses already invested in Kenmore. We do not want more self-serving council members who grab the WSDOT funds now and keep City Hall running a year. Or two? I believe expert draft people and
planners reside here, who themselves have invested in Kenmore and understand Kenmore’s needs. These resident designers would want to take a long-term approach, and these are the experts we should be paying. Our trust in a new plan is far more than the speed of those driving through our city. We need to hire local experts who will help the businesses and residents within Kenmore thrive, not jackhammered out of their hardearned profits by city officials granting themselves greater, more powerful eminent domain ordinances.
Patrick E. O’Brien, Kenmore City Council candidate
Kenmore is careless on economic development The city of Kenmore has agreed to sell the lower parcel of Kenmore Village for a $3 million loss. The sale price is half of what we paid for the property 10 years ago. The sale demonstrates the extent to which the city never cared about economic development. Behind closed doors, the primary goal of the project was always to build a lucrative municipal administration. The city received an objective financial plan at incorporation that emphasized and reemphasized, in the executive summary, that we did not have the
revenue and could not afford to staff such a City Hall. This critical fact was never a consideration, and any responsible discussion of this issue was (and still is) taboo and met with hostility, both by city management and the Kenmore Council that follows them. If you even questioned the financial consequences of the excessive City Hall, you were labeled a bad citizen who was against downtown economic development. The opposite was actually true. The city’s ability to influence economic development depends on our ability to fund infrastructure improvements. Much of that annual funding was lost as the city’s expenses have steadily grown and consumed all of that funding with day-to-day administrative and operating costs. These costs are going to continue to grow during the next five to seven years, requiring further tax increases, as this is part of the plan. To deflect attention away from the ongoing spending increases, and the upcoming parks bond issue, the council takes excess credit for state funding of the Bothell Way/State Route 522 project.

www.bothell-reporter.com • www.kenmore-reporter.com had searches for flights out of Sea-Tac Airport on his work computer that same day. Smith was also found to have searches on his iPad and cell phone for transit to the airport the day after his wife was found dead and other searches pertaining to DNA testing. Court documents state that the victim was drowned in the bathtub after suffering 19 separate blunt force wounds along with sharp force wounds in the face and head and a fractured skull. The medical examiner determined that “the cause of death was blunt force and sharp force trauma with a third component of asphyxiation by drowning.” Smith was found to have purchased a rubber mallet. The Snohomish County Medical examiner said “it was conceivable the blunt force injuries on Susann Smith could have been caused by this type of rubber mallet.” The Washington State Patrol Forensic Crime Lab concluded that the mallet could have caused Susann Smith’s injuries, but that “any tool that will leave similar circular marks could have possibly made these injuries.” The victim’s beating was so violent that police reportedly observed blood splatters on the ceiling, walls and window of the bedroom. The victim had to be identified by her dental records. Officers found bloody footprints in the hallway and kitchen areas of the home and the front door was closed but unlocked when they arrived at the home. Smith was found face down in the bathtub, which was full of water. She was also naked from the waste down but officers found no sign of a sexual attack.
Active week Alan Smith’s arrest came after an active week at his home. The most unusual of the calls took place on June 17. A neighbor called police at 12:30 p.m. after hearing a scream emanate from the home while outside, the report continues. When officers arrived they walked down the driveway to the front gate and saw Alan Smith and Thai nude, involved in sexual acts in the front yard, according to the police report. Alan Smith was then served with a search warrant seeking his passport. When he refused he was arrested for obstruction. While in custody, police served him with another search warrant for prints of his feet. After posting bail, Smith was arrested for the murder on June 27.

as summer 2014. The city purchased the property in 2005 for $2,525,000. It is currently an interim location for a skate park and layover point for two King County Metro bus routes. According to Karlinsey, the city is evaluating options for a new skate park site and will have the above-ground skate ramps relocated. King County Metro is planning to move the layover locations for the two bus lines to the Kenmore Park & Ride near 73rd Avenue and Bothell Way. Last month, the city council approved a PSA for the sale of the lower parcel of Kenmore Village. Benaroya Company and Real Property Investors are the approved purchasers for the commercial prop-

The two Kenmore Village projects combined will include the construction of retail and office space, high density residential units and a public gathering space. The city anticipates the potential for $25 million in new investment to the downtown area.

to court documents. Alan Smith continued, saying “… And by the way, I respect what you do with that information, cause at this point, I’m walking off the ledge.” The man later baptized Alan Smith in Puget Sound near Alki Beach in Seattle. When the man left Alan Smith he thought he was going to turn himself in, the documents continue. The man also stated that he met Alan Smith and his girlfriend during a church potluck. He told investigators that he was aware Alan Smith was a person of interest in the homicide investigation of his wife. The man mentioned he is very spiritually committed and felt the need to get to know Alan Smith and his story. “Detectives learned from a friend of Love Thai’s that she and Alan Smith were considering, ‘getting out of this country’ and going to South America to avoid the police,” the documents continue. Detectives also laid out new evidence against Smith in court documents. The Washington State Patrol Crime Lab determined that Alan Smith’s left foot was the same size and shape as the print left in blood at the crime scene. An independent forensic footprint expert stated in documents, “It is my opinion that there is support of the proposition that this impression could have been made by the right foot of Alan Smith.” Investigators found a credit card statement belonging to Alan Smith for a bicycle purchase in November. Alan Smith told investigators that he owned a bicycle but that it was stolen in October. A bicycle matching the one purchased with Alan Smith’s credit card was located in a greenbelt near the Bothell apartment complex where he was living at the time of the murder. But forensic tests on the bike yielded no DNA or blood evidence. Detectives are still analyzing surveillance footage from the area at the time of the murder. Surveillance footage taken from a Wal-Mart in Everett near Alan Smith’s work on the day that detectives found Susann Smith’s body shows him purchasing a gas can, latex gloves and a pair of sandals. His GPS shows him then traveling within two blocks of the home just after police found his wife’s body. He then went to a gas station and back to work. Smith never told investigators of the drive later that day when questioned. Alan Smith also withdrew $1,500 from his account and

Bothell Mayor Mark Lamb said the council is far from making any final decisions and that there will be multiple opportunities for public comment. “This allows us to have conversations with neighboring jurisdictions,” said Bothell Mayor Mark Lamb. “… We need to go after a [regional fire authority] to get enough information because it involves other cities.” Woodinville Fire Commissioner Mark Emery also spoke in support and delivered a letter of support for moving towards a regional fire authority. Bothell already contracts with Woodinville for emergency services. “Woodinville Fire and Rescue is in full support of a regional fire authority,” said Emery. “With this contract we have already seen the crystal ball of what the benefits would be.” Tony Woods, a representative of the fire fighters union, also spoke in support.

Sara Walvatne said that her son stays with his father during the week and she did not see him until the day after the incident. “They treated him in the ambulance,” she said. “… This should not be something that people do to each other.” But James Walvatne’s injuries forced his parents to take him to Urgent Care on Thursday for fear of internal bleeding. “He is going to have internal and external scars,” said Sara Walvatne. “He has a cigarette burn on the back

How do you black out?” she said. “They had PVC pipes and golf clubs.” The victims claim that they were beaten with the PVC pipes and headless golf clubs, burned and urinated on.

Police say some of the boys were bent over a log and had open wounds from
other agencies will be available to answer questions. The meeting will focus on three key developments: City/state sediment study, the Department of Health assessment and Kenmore Navigation Channel dredging project. Kenmore and Ecology conducted the studies in response to citizen concerns about health and environmental safety in Lake Washington and to gather information for planning for permits for work to maintain the navigation channel. being struck with switches and other items. A Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Department press release said some of the boys were only wearing shorts. Some of the juveniles also appeared to be suffering from hypothermia so aid cars were requested to respond. The boys were treated at the scene and released to their parents. During the initial contact each of the boys stated they did not want to cooperate in a police investigation.

Managing a young child’s behavior can be challenging at times. Here are some tips from Karen Pettersen, Director of Morning Star School, Inc. in Kenmore. Give clear guidelines use vocabulary and phrasing a they can understand. “Be nice!” is meaningless to a three year old. The chair is nice. It’s a nice day. “You need to play without hurting or you’ll need to play in a different area” is much more meaningful and provides a clear guideline of expected behavior. Consistent follow through is important. One parent contradicts another or sometimes a child is punished and other times not. Gambling is addictive and this is gambling on the disciplinary level. Parents must provide a united front. If you disagree about discipline, work it out in another room and create a scenario that both parents agree on and can enforce regularly. Positive reinforcement is your most powerful tool. Praise must be specific and for true accomplishments. Empty repeated phrases of “Good job!” “Great!”, are just that, empty and eventually meaningless. “I was proud of how you got along with your sister today. It was nice to see you share your toy with her”. Give them choices often so they feel empowered without having to use negative behaviors to feel like they can make choices too. Making choices
is an important life skill and the sooner they start practicing, the better. To dos - Give them a safe way to engage in activities that seem compulsive. If they can’t seem to stop actions such as throwing, climbing or jumping, then give them a place where they can engage

and city government to be more transparent. O’Brien also sees balancing the budget with no new taxes as a priority. “The council has taken no responsibility and has in fact vehemently denied the factual growth in the new City Hall operating costs,” said O’Brien. “Two years ago they denied any need to increase taxes, yet last year they increased taxes on our car tabs and on our water and sewer bills.” One of the biggest issues of the past decade has been the redevelopment of the city center and specifically the Kenmore Village Shopping Center. The city recently announced buyers and develop-
ers for the properties, which will have a lasting impact on the city’s economic growth. Crouch and Herbig see the issue more broadly and think the city should be less directly involved in real estate development. Crouch said he understands the city’s desire to promote growth but hopes in the future that the city will use more of a “guiding hand” in the process, rather than get so involved. He sees another opportunity in the future to do things differently with the Lake Pointe property. “I’m not a fan of the city acting as real estate speculator - while I think we will get great things from this particular deal, at the end of the day we are losing money on it,” said Herbig of the Kenmore Village sale. Herbig also recognizes that the deal is a monumental event for the city. O’Brien is more critical of the city’s actions, calling the Kenmore Village deal another error “in the long series of downtown develop-

eputy Mayor Bob Hensel has served on the Kenmore City Council for nearly a decade. He has had a big part in shaping the course of the city that was incorporated in 1998. But he will retire from his position in January and three Kenmore residents are vying for his Position 4 seat. Nigel Herbig, Charles Crouch and Patrick O’Brien have as differing ideas for the direction of Kenmore as their backgrounds. Herbig has worked for many high profile elected officials during his career. He currently works as State Rep. Jessyn Farrell’s legislative assistant. Farrell represents Kenmore in Olympia from the 46th District. Crouch is a former Navy special warfare operator and currently a local business owner. He has owned CrossFit Kenmore since 2011 and moved to the city in 2010 from San Diego with his family. O’Brien is an environmentally active citizen who has worked and consulted in the “green” industry. He has also been involved with People for an Environmentally Responsible Kenmore (PERK). Both Herbig and O’Brien see developing the waterfront as one of the biggest issues facing the city. “Kenmore is brimming with potential - we have a great location right on the lake, yet some of our best waterfront property is taken up with industrial uses,” said Herbig. “It is a long-term project, but we have to work

O’Brien, who also advocated for the council to have the power to higher and fire city staff with a two-thirds vote. He also would like to see more pedestrian access across SR-522. Herbig sees the city’s economic growth issue as night and day, literally, as he sees Kenmore currently as a bedroom community. “People sleep here at night, but go elsewhere to work during the day,” said Herbig. “I want to see more office space in our downtown. People working here during the day will make it easier for many of our small businesses to succeed - our coffee shops, our restaurants, etc.” For Crouch, economic growth goes back to building more of a sense of community for the 15-year-old city. “The best way to spur growth in the city and to build a sense of community between businesses and local government is to guide the city in a way that encourages people to gather,” said Crouch. “The key to business growth in this city is synonymous with solidifying our identity and encouraging people to gather.”

with the property owners to open up our industrial waterfront - for our health, our environment, and our quality of life.” O’Brien said the city needs to develop an integrated plan for the development of the downtown core and waterfront after “openly and transparently” resolving the outstanding environmental issues. Crouch’s most pressing issues center around family, business and solidifying the city’s identity. He points to State Route 522 as the biggest catalyst for economic growth. “With 50,000 cars driving through Kenmore each day, how do we get some of them to pull over here?” he said. “First, make Kenmore economically viable for business by showing businesses people can and actually do want to gather here. Second, ensure rules and regulations are more conducive for businesses.” One of the biggest ways that Crouch would draw businesses is to give Kenmore more of an identity. The identity he suggests is one that is family friendly. “Identity is a big deal because it means an integration of businesses and people in our city,” said Crouch. “Companies spend big bucks to make and produce logos and brand their names and purpose, we should too.” Herbig also agrees that the city needs to be more family friendly by moving forward to create more sidewalks. He thinks the city’s current 20year plan is a good start. “Too many of our major roads aren’t safe for pedestrians, and our kids can’t walk safely to school,” said Herbig. “Our sidewalk network is spotty, patchy, and in some places completely nonexistent.” Both Herbig and O’Brien want the community to be more involved in city matters,

ment contractual and fiscal mistakes.” “The city should at least have tried to keep the property together and sell it to one developer,” said O’Brien. “After 10 years of investing more than $6 million in the old shopping center property, we have now agreed to sell it for $3 million, or half of what we paid … The reality is that the original purchase and sale of the Kenmore Village was unnecessarily dragged out and used primarily as a political tool to support the construction of the City Hall that was clearly beyond the need and affordability level of our local Kenmore community.” As far as the broader issue of economic growth, the candidates have some differing ideas. Herbig and O’Brien agree that the city poorly handled the issues surrounding the city’s new business registry. O’Brien wants the business registry fee revoked. “Unlike elected officials, city staff members have a vested interest to increase taxes and are not held accountable by either a vote of the people or by term limits when they make grievous errors in judgment,” said

Kenmore pos. 2 race pits Sperry against Black, Prince [12] July 05, 2013

aurie Sperry was first elected to the Kenmore City Council in 2005 and three generations of her family live in the city. But Sperry faces an August primary for Position 2 against two challengers, Bob Black and Mark Prince, who have lived in the city for decades and disagree with many of the council’s decisions. Black moved to Kenmore in 1985 and his interest in the council seat is to “make Kenmore more than a bus stop between Seattle and Bothell.” He says that it does not take a degree to be an effective council member, “just common sense and a willingness to listen.” Prince is a lifelong Kenmore resident and has worked as the treasurer of the Northwest section of the Society of Automotive Engineers. He is currently a production supervisor for a Woodinville company.

Make the area fit for business and residential, and responsible developments will come.” Prince said that Kenmore is a potential gold mine with SR-522 running through the downtown. “The city currently does not allow or encourage the types of business … that would allow the consumer to stop and shop, now leaving neighboring communities to take advantage of our passive approach,” said Prince. Sperry touts Kenmore’s Business Incubator program and wants to see a local business organization to improve communication.
