Ballots for the Pierce County primary election are due Tuesday, and Bonney Lake is one of four Pierce County cities running a mayoral primary. Incumbent Neil Johnson, seeking a third term as mayor, faces Councilman James Rackley and political newcomer Mike Munson. The two candidates with the most votes in the primary will move on to the general election in November. Regarding his second term, Johnson said his most significant accomplishments included the Cascade Water Alliance agreement on Lake Tapps, the widening of state Route 410 and the negotiation, in 2012, of a new sewer agreement with the city of Sumner. “My goals for a third term would be focused on following through on the downtown plan, Eastown, and con-

Program tabled after road widening raises ire By Daniel Nash Staff Writer

A public hearing for the city of Bonney Lake’s six-year Transportation Improvement Program attracted criticism from residents of the residential streets immediately east of the Justice & Municipal Center. The comments prompted the City Council, by a 5-2 vote, to table consideration of the plan until the Aug. 20 workshop. Every year, cities are required to submit their foreseeable road, trail and sidewalk projects to the state

— whether they ultimately happen or not. This year, one particular project raised ire from residents of 88th Street East, and 186th and 188th avenues east: a proposal to widen each street’s right-of-way by 10 feet. The project would expand longitudinal 186th to the west, latitudinal 88th to the north and 188th to the east, for the purpose of accommodating anticipated traffic following completion of Tarragon’s Renwood Apartments. But residents, a landlord and their sympathizers were none-tookeen on the idea of losing yard

space and the relative solitude of their low-traffic roads. “I am concerned about that rightof-way increase,” Shawnta Mulligan said at the hearing. Mulligan is not a resident of the affected streets but, in the past year, she has become an advocate for property rights in the city and a candidate for council. “I understand that (Renwood) is going through. But I’m disappointed that people who have their property on their street and who have lived there, some of them all their lives, all will have to forego 10 feet. And I feel like that, the 10 feet, is just the tip of the iceberg

because that street is part of the city’s downtown ‘Nirvana’ … and I respect the vision of trying to build a centralized local place, but we aren’t Sumner and we’ll never be Sumner.” After Mayor Neil Johnson checked whether the public hearing had been advertised in the usual channels, Mulligan suggested advertising with signs on the affected streets would be appropriate; Johnson said it was a method the city hadn’t used but could be useful in the future.

Renaissance Faire coming to Kelley Farm By Daniel Nash Staff Writer

In the village of Merriwick, everyone leads a double life. A database manager is also a rags-toriches noblewoman. An auto parts delivery driver is also a royal ambassador to the Romani. An apartment manager is also a financier to Queen Elizabeth I. You may not be familiar with the village of Merriwick but, if you’ve driven by Kelley Farm in the past week, you’ve seen actors and volunteers —

some of them military personnel from Joint Base Lewis-McChord — building it week by week. While Merriwick is very much a real place to its denizens, it only physically exists for three weekends a year during the Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire. The Faire begins this Saturday and runs Saturdays and Sundays through Aug. 18. One week out, the village’s physical structures — such as Castle Gate, Hangman’s Acre and Faerie Landing — were just being

raised in the late afternoon of a hard day’s setup. Village construction was moving along smoothly — maybe too smoothly, a volunteer jokingly mused. When work is complete Merriwick will truly be a city within a city, able to accommodate more than half the population of Bonney Lake. “We can accommodate up to 10,000 visitors a day,” Operations Manager Tracy Nietupski said. “We had 30,000 total over all the weekends last year. I’d love to hit 35,000 this year; I’d love to hit 40,000 for that

matter.” As operations manager, Nietupski is never at a loss for things to do in the leadup to Faire. She is in constant communication with her volunteers, whether overseeing set-up or making sure everyone involved is hydrated, fed and uninjured. While she’s responsible in part for making Merriwick as authentic to 16th century life as possible, she also ensures its necessary modernities: fire compliance, health compli-

Bonney Lake senior citizen digs deep to save senior center van Staff Writer

Last fall, a new van was purchased for the Bonney Lake Senior Center. A member of the Senior Advisory Board, who wishes to remain anonymous, is making every effort she can to keep the old van as a backup for the center. The City Council originally intended to sell the old van to cover a portion of the new van’s cost but it was plagued with unexpected maintenance needs from the beginning. For that reason, the center temporarily kept the old van as a backup.

W ND NSE OU EM!

Fast forward several months and the new van is in good working order; the City Council is preparing to finally sell the old one for $4,000. In the spirit of compromise, the board member dug deep into her heart and bank account to muster up the $4,000 City Council is seeking, in addition to the money needed for new tires. She offered to purchase the van and then donate it back to the city, specifically for the senior center’s use. The vans are typically used for local runs to transport seniors to and from the senior center but they’re occasionally utilized for

longer activity trips as well. As the city continues to grow, the senior center has seen an increase in ridership and overall participation. With that, comes great needs that one van cannot fulfill, according to some. Woody Edvalson, administrative services director and city clerk, said the old van has clearly been useful to the senior center. They have put more than 4,000 miles on it since October, in addition to also using the new one. “The seniors have seen having (two vans) around is

afford such commitments, which leaves the city to assume those responsibilities for both vans. “We’re not rich people,” the board member said. “This is a big sacrifice but it’s something we feel strongly about. There are people at the senior center we dearly love; people who depend on the van. For some of them, the only hot meal they get each day is at the center. We just hope the city will consider accepting our gift and save the van.” The seniors are incredibly grateful for the new

van but one vehicle just isn’t enough for them anymore, she added. When a backup vehicle was necessary in the past, the fire department would loan one to the center. A generous act, she said, but unfortunately it falls short because the loaner doesn’t have wheelchair access. The next step is for city officials to meet with the Senior Advisory Board for a discussion of details and optional outcomes. At the time of press, no such talks were scheduled but are expected in the near future.

advantageous to provide the flexibility and additional services they need,” he said. “I understand their interest and on the surface it sounds like a great thing but the city also needs to consider all the variables in play.” The City Council faces financial constraints, said Edvalson. Besides the initial purchase price, the question of who will pay for routine maintenance, repairs and insurance coverage of the second van remains unanswered. The board member said the senior center can’t

This week’s…

alert

Police Blotter All suspects in the police blotter are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.

FRAUD: At 9 a.m. July 17, an officer met with a citizen regarding a fraud complaint. The complainant reported unknown persons had used his name to rent a car in December, which resulted in recent collections action for the outstanding balance. A credit card was used for the rental, but the complainant said he had never had a credit card or rented a car. He said he had lost his identification card several times. He was concerned the fraud would result in a criminal charge for theft of services. The complainant was given a case number and instructions for how to obtain a copy of the report, for forwarding to the collections agency. HAMBURGER UNHELPFUL: At 12:37 a.m. July 18, dispatch advised Bonney Lake officers that Washington State Patrol was reporting a possible driver under the influence entering the city. The truck had turned onto state Route 410 from 167, and the license plate had come up with a Bonney Lake address for the registered owner. An officer en route was directed to Wendy’s, where fire department personnel — who had traveled behind the swerving truck on the highway — reported he had diverted into the drive-thru when an officer directing traffic around construction became visible on the horizon. The officer initiated an emergency stop in front of the truck as it came around a corner. As the officer approached on foot, the driver put the truck in reverse and started backing away. The officer requested back-up

Wednesday, July 31, 2013 • The BONNEY LAKE Courier-Herald • Page 5 and ordered the man to stop. On contact, the officer could immediately see an open beer can in the cup holder and smell intoxicants on the driver. As the driver searched for his wallet, he noticed the open beer can and placed it on the passenger floorboard; when the officer referenced the moved beer later, the driver said “What, this?” and held up his hamburger. As backup arrived, the officer asked the man to exit his vehicle and whether he had any weapons. He reported a loaded gun in the center console, for which he had a concealed pistol license. Due to the driver’s unsteadiness on his feet and uncooperative attitude, field sobriety tests were foregone and he was transferred into the arresting custody of another officer, who took him to the station for processing. The pistol was recovered and seized due to being in the driver’s possession while suspected of driving under the influence. The officer also investigated the beer can, which was nearly empty and cold to the touch. More cold beer cans were found in a bag in the back seat. At the station, the driver was administered a breath test and registered above the legal limit. He was cited for driving under the influence. WARRANTS: At 5:01 a.m. July 18, an officer observed a truck fail to signal a turn. An emergency stop was initiated on South Prairie Road East. A records check on the driver’s identification showed an arrest warrant issued by the Puyallup Police Department. The driver was placed under arrest. When the officer checked with the passenger to find out if he was valid to drive the car from the scene, he said he was not and that he had warrants. The passenger was also confirmed to have a warrant issued by Puyallup PD. Both people were transferred into the custody of

taken for evidence.

HIT AND RUN: At 5:13 p.m. July 18, an officer responded to 77th Street East in regards to a hit and run that had occurred 12 minutes prior. The suspect vehicle was described as a silver pickup truck, which had reportedly backed over a utility box and fled the scene. The officer located two knocked-over utility pedestals and contacted the witness to the incident. He advised the home adjacent to the pedestals was a vacant rental property, and that the suspect was likely a prospective renter. He said he had heard the bang of impact and saw the truck backed into the pedestals before it sped northbound. He described the driver as a white male, possibly with two female passengers. The officer requested dispatch contact Puget Sound Energy and Comcast to reset the pedestals. There appeared to be no damage to the internal components, and there were no reports of interrupted service in the area. Photos of the scene were

THEFT: At 11:12 a.m. July 19, a business supervisor reported an employee theft. A customer had forgotten an iPad at the business, and they had it in safekeeping in a drawer. When she came in to recover it, it was missing. Review of surveillance footage showed an employee had taken the tablet, as well as merchandise. The supervisor contacted the suspect through another employee to inform him they knew about the theft and he needed to return the customer’s property. At 12:40 p.m., an employee called to tell the officer that the iPad had been returned, later verified by the officer in person. The supervisor and employee submitted statements for the report, which was scheduled to be sent to the prosecutor for review. OBSTRUCTION: At 5:02 p.m. July 20, an officer was stopped behind a vehicle at the Veterans Memorial Drive and Locust Avenue intersection and ran a records check on the

license plate. The check turned up an outstanding warrant associated with the vehicle’s registration. The officer followed the vehicle onto Locust, where it immediately turned into a parking lot. An emergency stop was initiated. The driver immediately said he was aware of the warrant. He said the vehicle belonged to his passenger. The passenger shared a last name with the person on the arrest warrant, but he was able to confirm through his registration and proof of insurance that he was a separate person. During the stop, the driver appeared nervous and was talking quickly. Upon being asked for identification, he said he had forgotten it. He provided a name and birthdate. He did not know his social security number, and the height and weight he provided did not match records. However, a search of the name turned up a booking photo of the driver. As the officer returned to the car, the driver said the name he had given was an alias. The name belonged to

an acquaintance, and he could not explain how his own booking photo had been attached to it. His actual name turned up warrants out of the Buckley and Bonney Lake police departments. He was arrested and transported to Enumclaw Jail, where he was booked for driving while license suspended, obstructing a law enforcement officer, and his warrants. Subsequent investigation determined he had used the alias in an earlier incident in which he was booked into Puyallup Jail. Latent prints had revealed his true identity. PURSE THEFT: At 1:46 p.m. an officer was dispatched to a woman reporting a theft that took place at Walmart. She had inadvertently left her phone and purse in a shopping cart. When she returned within minutes to retrieve the items, they were gone and not in the custody of the store. She was able to use an application to track her phone to Auburn. The case was forwarded to investigations. See blotter, Page 14

Maybe if they just had cooler names... A quick glance at the opinion page tells us an election is right around the corner. The mail-in primary ballots must be postmarked by Tuesday. I have been thinking about the American attitude toward political leaders. Politicians are almost as low on the pole as journalists. The difference is journalists want to be hated and politicians, by their naDennis Box ture, want to Editor be loved. That explains why many say they are not politicians, but are community servants who happen to put signs out asking people to vote for them. I understand the sentiment. Most local political leaders really do go into office trying to serve their community, at least mostly. All human action is conflicted (this from the twisted mind of an editor known as Mr. Joyful). I have come up with a solution for politicians to get more lovey-dovey respect. Get more names – a lot more. Roman emperors figured this out early on. Some of them changed their names to something cooler or their parents added all sorts of names to make them sound important in hopes some nut would be less likely to poi-

Join police and fire on National Night Out Can you imagine riding in the back of a big, black, bulky SWAT vehicle? Did you know there are no seat belts and no windows and that it is stuffy back there? There are no seats, just benches along the walls, leaving room for gear in the center or to stand up. If you drive, I imagine you know the capabilities of your car, what it takes to get stopped and the turning radius of your car. If you drive a semi, you know it takes longer to stop when you have a load than when you don’t. And a semi has to swing wide when it turns. The SWAT vehicle is like that, due to the weight of the materials used to make it bullet proof. It is not a comfortable ride, especially if you’re claustrophobic. But as I rode in that SWAT vehicle, I imagined what it might be like as a police officer, lumbering out to a call. This vehicle is not made for speed. No threat to Kasey Kahne here. And that is the purpose of National Night Out. To meet those police and fire personnel who put their lives on the line for us. To see the equipment your Bonney Lake Police Department and East Pierce Fire and Rescue personnel use to keep us safe, and keep them safe.

Carter’s Community Laurie Carter Columnist

National Night Out is an opportunity to climb on, run around, sit in and honk horns on the many types of trucks and vehicles used in this City. There will be an appearance by the Airlift NW helicopter. The Washington State Patrol bomb disposal unit will be on hand. Come on out and take the opportunity to speak one-on-one with your police chief and officers, firefighters, council members and various city leaders and workers. Be there at 6:30 to watch the caravan of vehicles arrive at Allan Yorke to kick off the festivities, lights on and sirens blaring. And there will be fun things for the kids. I think this will be the first year there will be a movie at dusk (weather permitting) called Escape from Planet Earth. Face painting by

the Bonney Lake High School cheerleaders, Clown Buggie clowns and craft projects by Lowes and Home Depot. There is truly something for everyone. McGruff the Crime Dog and Sparky the Fire Dog, gift bags provided by Target, who in the past have sponsored Shop with a Cop during the holiday season. Bring your picnic dinner and learn about crime and drug prevention awareness. Meet your neighbors. Develop partnerships with your first responders. This is like an old fashioned block party. And when you see Community Services Officer Yanez, shake her hand and tell her she has once again done a great job organizing this annual event. If you need any additional information about crime prevent, she is the one to call at 253863-2218 extension 3247. As I have written in previous columns, I have cruised on the Marine Services Unit boat, my husband and I have taken Citizen’s Academy and participated in quite a few National Night Out events. I have ridden in the SWAT vehicle, gone on a couple of ride alongs and even rode in the

Letters to the Editor Proposal hurts dialysis patients

1 which will cut end-stage renal disease reimbursements for dialysis care by 12 percent. More than 6,000 kidney failure patients in Washington, like myself, require dialysis to survive and at least 85 percent of us rely predominately on Medicare. These proposed cuts will, without a doubt, have an enormous impact on dialysis patients.

My kidneys have stopped working and, as a result, home dialysis treatments have become a critical part of my life. Dialysis allows me to stay healthy. Dialysis is already a challenge to be overcome on a daily basis and I am extremely concerned about the CMS proposed rule released on July

Medicare currently pays $246 for each dialysis session, but the proposed cut would decrease reimbursement by $30 for each and every session. The $246 not only helps pay for the necessary three- to four-hour dialysis sessions five days a week, but also critical medications, lab work and other important services I and other patients need to stay healthy. Medicare funding for dialysis has already been reduced by previous cuts, including substantial impacts from sequestra-

tion. Thirty dollars may not sound like much money, however, if this federal rule is finalized and funding to dialysis is cut again, patients like myself will have less access to affordable, high-quality care. I urge dialysis patients and your readers to contact Congressman Dave Reichert to protect patients like me and others who require Medicare funding for life-saving dialysis care. Our lives depend on it. Dolores Flores South Prairie

Arctic ice melting more rapidly than predicted lines, there is a positive side to global warming – increased trade and resource development in the Arctic. The Arctic can now be sailed through from the Bering Strait between Alaska and Russia to Norway in Europe during the summer months and between 2010 and 2012 the number of ships traveling east from northwestern Europe through the Arctic to Asia increased from 34 to 46. These new routes will save thousands of shipping miles between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. New areas of tremendous resources in oil and gas are opening up. Early estimates put reserves at 22 percent of the world’s undiscovered oil and gas deposits. Many supermajor oil companies are

already exploring. In addition, nickel, palladium, platinum, diamonds, tungsten and zinc are in great abundance in this newly-opened territory. The search for riches in the north is afoot. Fortunately for the world, the nations who have borders adjacent to the Arctic – Russia, Nor way, Denma rk (Greenland), Canada and the U.S. – have made agreements that will encourage cooperation rather than competition. Unfortunately though, according to the author, the U.S. government has been asleep at the switch because the Senate has refused for decades to ratify The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Seas agreement due to fears over loss of sovereignty. This stand has weakened the U.S. position in the region and keeps it from claiming an additional 350,000 square

miles of territory that could be added with U.S. ratification of the UNCLOS agreement. Militarily, the U.S. also lags behind these other nations: Currently, none of the U.S. Navy surface fleet has the hulls or the power to navigate the region. In contrast, Russia has 30 icebreakers, some nuclear powered. Canada owns 13. Both South Korea and China, while lacking an Arctic coastline, have new icebreakers, according to the article. The U.S. Coast Guard has three, but one is no longer in service, another is almost ready for decommissioning and the third is a floating research lab. Potentially, the 55-mile wide Bering Strait could become an important commercial and military chokepoint for future trade and exploration. This could mean a shifting of military resources to Alaska in the future to guard U.S. interests. It may be that Anchorage and Reykjavik will eventually become major shipping centers for this region. The Chinese government, realizing this, is exploring the possibility of trade agreements and

a long-term lease with Iceland for its state shipping company. Additionally, more ships will be traveling across the Arctic, meaning that the Panama and Suez Canals may become less strategically important. Seaports along Puget Sound, in the San Francisco Bay Area, and at Long Beach near Los Angeles, could grow. Recently, the Panama Canal finished its expansion, allowing larger ships to cross between the Atlantic and Pacific. This was expected to decrease business along the West Coast, but with the opening of the Arctic route, the dynamics of oceanic trade could change yet again. Finally, the arguments for and against development in the Arctic will be a struggle between those who want to exploit the region’s resources and those who want to preserve the fragile ecosystem. Careful thought should be exercised to balance between those who believe in “Drill, baby, drill!” and the environmentalists who want to preserve flora and fauna. Additionally, preplanning and preparing to avoid another Deepwater Horizon disaster should be high on both groups’

agendas. The opening of the Arctic to shipping and commerce stands ready as a Congressional battle waiting in the wings. The Arctic region’s melting ice will also open up more possibilities for trade, but it will heat up the debates and accusations in the federal government. Things are guaranteed to get hotter as the Arctic ice continues to melt.

Arctic ice is melting even more quickly than scientists predicted. At this time last year, an area the size of Venezuela (350,000 square miles) had melted at the North Pole. According to the article, “The Coming Arctic Boom” by Scott Borgerson in the July/August 2013 Foreign Affairs, the melting of the ice is supposed to make Arctic summers ice free by as early as 2020 – a rapid increase from the original 2070 prediction. Due to warmer summer temperatures, ice hockey arenas in Northern Canada have begun installing refrigeration to maintain their rinks. Subarctic plants and animals are migrating north and walruses are making landfall in northwest Alaska. While these changes grab the head-

Bonney Lake’s own Man in Black to play Tunes @ Tapps By Theresa De Lay Staff Writer

Corey Wilkins went to a Johnny Cash concert in 1982 at the Snohomish County Fair. He didn’t even want to go, he said, but his dad made him. Now, 31 years later, Wilkins passionately brings Cash back to life each night he performs with the Bonney Lake based cover band, Folsom Prism. On any given day, Wilkins is an average State Farm insurance agent, but on Monday evenings, he crosses the office to his studio and awaits the arrival of his bandmates. For those few hours of band practice, the creative left side of his brain takes control and the analytical right side is smashed by the twangy, deep sounds of Cash. Wilkins was born in Astoria, Oregon and it was there, at 5 years old, his father would drag him onstage at gigs to sing Cash and Waylon Jennings. His dad was a true blue, all-American, good ol’ country boy musician from Baton Rouge, said Wilkins. Wilkins picked up the guitar at about 9 years old. After mastering the classic country tunes of his dad’s career, Wilkins played in several heavy metal bands

throughout high school. At 22, he married his high school sweetheart, with whom he now has 13-year-old twins; a boy and girl “empowered by their iPhones, posses and Instagram.” In addition to vocals and guitar, Wilkins plays the drums and bass. In college he joined longtime friend Shane Gillispie in an alternative rock band called Two Cents Worth. The members of Two Cents Worth eventually went their separate ways, but Gillispie and Wilkins kept in touch, as they have since grade school. Now, with Wilkins as The Man in Black and Gillispie on lead guitar, the two have established Folsom Prism — a modern, high-energy Johnny Cash tribute band. Wilkins and Gillispie are joined onstage by Mike Sprayberry on bass, Mark Montiero on drums and Laurel Robinson as June Carter Cash. Since its’ conception in 2011, the band has enjoyed a healthy amount of success. They play regularly at Jazzbones in Tacoma, Hard Rock Cafe in Seattle and Emerald Queen Casino. They were also commissioned to play by the city of Folsom, California and given a private tour of Folsom prison, where Cash performed

and recorded in 1968. A copious amount of research went into the Folsom Prism project, according to Wilkins. The band uses historically accurate equipment used by Cash in his day; Gillispie plays a 1969 American Fender Telecaster. For his part, Wilkins said he enjoys adding song introductions with tidbits of history and background information. Wilkins said the most enjoyable aspect of pretending to be Cash is the effect it has on fans. He recalled an old-timer with a tear in his eye — a man who had seen the real Johnny Cash several times — who walked up and thanked him for providing another chance to witness one of the most influential artists the world has seen. “I do feel the pressure to emulate him as well as I can; to be what he was to everyone else,” said Wilkins. “We have our own twist. It’s modern and more energetic but we stay true to the music.” When offered rider contracts — hospitality requests made by a musician and provided by the venue — Folsom Prism doesn’t demand water melted from the tip of an iceberg or bowls of marshmallow – only Lucky Charms.

Folsom Prism is a Bonney Lake based Johnny Cash tribute band with a modern, energetic sound. Courtesy photo. The only special accommodation Wilkins suggests is sparkling water with lime. Gillispie, however, is known for having a more random request. “We’re just not like that,” said Wilkins. “We never demand crazy riders except Shane, our guitarist. I don’t know why but his thing is a little weird. His backstage request is always chicken fingers … with ranch.” Wilkins proclaimed if Folsom Prism could open up for any act, it would be Willie Nelson — in

20 mile car chase ends in crash Collision knocks down power line Staff Writer

The 27-year-old driver of a speeding Saturn crashed in Buckley July 23, at the end of a high-speed chase with Bonney Lake police. He was transported to Good Samaritan Hospital

for treatment of a minor injury sustained in the collision. At 6:30 p.m., numerous citizens reported a white vehicle traveling 90 miles per hour in a 111th Street East residential neighborhood and, at one point, performing donut spins in the

roadway. Officers from Bonney Lake Police Department and two other agencies caught up with the car, and the driver led them on a 20-mile chase toward the city of Buckley. The driver maintained estimated 90 mile per hour speeds and ran traffic lights on the route. The chase ended as the driver lost control negotiating a turn on state Route 162, near Orville Road East. No officers were injured during the chase and subsequent arrest. The suspect’s motivations were unknown as of this writing.

Just after midnight Sunday, a single vehicle left the road at the 22700 block of the SumnerBuckley Highway between Buckley and Bonney Lake, hit a power pole, traveled approximately 150 feet and landed in a ditch. Two of the four occupants were thrown from the vehicle. East Pierce Fire and Rescue responded to the scene with three medic units and two engines. While firefighters extinguished the small fire started by the downed power lines, other firefighters tended to the patients, transporting all

four to area hospitals. According to Acting Battalion Chief Brian Schulz, one of the patients sustained life-threatening injuries when he was thrown from the vehicle into a ditch. “The firefighters had to perform a rapid extrication of the patient when the power lines shifted and were about to fall on the patient and crew,” Shulz said. One other occupant was also thrown from the vehicle and sustained significant injuries. Schulz reports that the other patients had remained in

the vehicle and received only minor injuries. According to the Pierce County Sheriff’s deputies, not all of the occupants were wearing seat belts at the time of the crash. The damage to the power pole caused a power outage for a short time throughout the Bonney Lake and Buckley area. Both lanes of the SumnerBuckley Highway were closed for two hours during the operation. T he Sher i f f ’s Department is investigating the cause of the crash.

Malcolm Fraser sentenced to 20 years in prison for child rape Editor

Sound Doctrine assistant pastor Malcolm Fraser was sentenced to 20 years in prison Friday by Superior Court Judge Lori K. Smith for two counts of first degree child rape and two counts of child molestation. Fraser was convicted by a jury of 12, eight men and four women, May 29 for the rape and molestation charges following a trial that began in April. The crimes were committed between 2005 and 2006 against an 11-yearold girl living in Enumclaw with her parents. Fraser and his wife, Julie, were living in the family’s home when the crimes occurred. At the time, the family was part of the Sound Doctrine congregation. Prosecutors referred to the sentence as indeterminate. Fraser’s parole is reviewed by the state’s Indeterminate Sentencing Review Board before he will be released. The sentencing range for the rape charge was 240 to 318 months, which is 20 to 26 years; the remaining 149 to 198 months, or 12 to 16 years, was for the molestation charge. The judge sentenced Fraser to 20 years for each of the two child rape charges and 12 years for each of the molestation charges. The sentence is to be served concurrently, which means he is serving 20 years with potentially 10 percent off for good behavior, two years. According to the King County Prosecutor’s

Roman historian Tacitus said Augustus’ wife, Livia, poisoned him so her son Tiberius could finally become emperor. Apparently Auggie lived too long and Livia got tired of waiting. The danger of marrying a young woman in Rome I guess. Romans liked to string a bunch of unpronounceable names together and chisel them on an arch, right before some disgruntled brother or close friend fed

Office, Fraser’s earliest date he can apply for parole would be after serving 18 years. Fraser is 41 years old. The judge also imposed a lifetime no-contact order on Fraser with the victim in the case. The judge did allow other parents to let their children have contact with Fraser with supervision and the parents being made aware of the crimes. Some of the Sound Doctrine members and Fraser requested their children be allowed to have contact with Fraser during the sentencing hearing. Fraser has no children of his own according to court records.

Prosecutors Deputy Prosecutor Jason Simmons had asked for a midrange sentence of 23 years, but said he was satisfied with the judge’s ruling because it is an indeterminate sentence. “Ultimately the jury was able to come to a just and fair result,” Simmons said. “The victim was courageous to testify in this case. It took courage to come forward and step up for the truth with what was occurring in the courtroom and community.” S en ior D e put y Prosecutor Rich Anderson said child sexual abuse cases always involve testimony of a “child or former child” and the prosector’s office has to be cautious because of the emotional nature of the charges. During the trial it came out church members had put pressure on the proshim bad buttermilk. Gaius Caesar Augustus Germanicus was Caligula, and one of the really goofy ones was Severus – Imperator Caesar Lucius Septimius Severus Pertinax Augustus. Sometimes it seemed the quicker they got the knife the longer the name. The Romans had a very poor system of succession. A problem we appear to have solved. I think our political hopefuls and leaders need to start adding names to their names. It could be a new political strategy. Maybe if Nixon would have had a name like Dick Not a Crook And Really Nice Nixon, he would have finished his second term. How about, “I am run-

ecutor’s office to drop the case. Anderson said in these types of cases that sort of pressure is not unusual. “We put pressure on ourselves to do the right thing,” Anderson said.

Inside the court Malcolm Fraser entered the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center Courtroom 4C at 8:45 a.m. through the jail door dressed in an orange jail jumpsuit with handcuffs connected to a waist shackle. The judge entered a few minutes later and the hearing began. A number of those in attendance and Fraser were allowed to speak before sentencing.

Victim’s Family The first to speak was Melanie Thomas, for the family of the young woman. She read a letter thanking the prosecutors, court and supporters. She stated the family’s only concern in terms of the sentence was, “…the court please take into account the harassment Malcolm Fraser put our family, Jason Simmons, Detective Grant McCall and many others through during the entire duration of this case, using his Enumclaw.com website.” The family asked Fraser’s sentencing “include restrictions on what can be published about the victim and her family by Enumclaw.com.” The letter noted Fraser was previously listed as administrative and techning for office and my name is Tony No Dirty Pictures of Me Weiner.” “What’s in a name?

Julie Fraser

Four members of Sound Doctrine spoke in support of Fraser, asking for a minimum sentence. Sharon George, who testified during the trial, said she has known Fraser for 12 years. She asked for the “lowest sentence” and alleged, “this whole entire thing has been a witch hunt against our church and a hate crime against our church.”

Fraser’s wife, Julie, who is deaf, spoke through an American Sign Language interpreter. Julie Fraser was crying and said, “I still believe my husband is innocent.” She asked for the minimum sentence and the no contact order with any minor be lifted so he could have contact with children

Sound Doctrine Members

Karla Cochran said Fraser is a “good man and I know that he is innocent.” She also said she wanted to “stand up for people defending innocence when your local newspaper (The Courier-Herald) will not listen.” She said, “There is a lot of pain here and lot of people using other people against Malcolm and against our church.” Abigail Davidson said Fraser and his wife lived

Pierce County fire marshal announces stage one burn ban By Theresa De Lay Staff Writer

The Pierce County Fire Marshal announced a stage one burn ban, effective from 12:01 a.m., July 29 and continuing until further notice. The ban is due to an expected continuation of hot, dry weather. Northwest residents aren’t strangers to surprise showers, but even a small amount of rain at this point won’t be enough to lessen the fire risk, according to East Pierce Fire and Rescue Deputy Chief John McDonald. During the burn ban, all outdoor burning is prohibited except for outdoor fireplaces, established campfires in approved locations and cooking appliances such as barbecues and recreational fires measuring less than three feet in diameter.

East Pierce Fire recommends the following tips to reduce the risk of inadvertently fueling a fire: • Use caution when operating anything that could emit a spark, such as chain saws, ATVs and motorcycles. • Rake leaves and other flammable vegetation out from underneath structures. • Remove dead branches that extend over the roof. • Keep grass short. • Clear a 10-foot area around barbecue and propane tanks. • Prune all tree branches that fall within 15 feet from the ground. • Ask the power company to clear power lines of intruding branches. • Remove vines, such as ivy, from the

• • •

walls of structures. Keep firewood 100 feet from the home and uphill, if possible. Identify and maintain an outside water source such as a well, pool, hydrant or small cistern. Have a garden hose that has the ability to reach any area of the property.

Residents may notice a limited amount of agricultural burning in the area, however it will be done under very strict and specific guidelines.

Anyone with approved burn permits through the Department of Natural Resources is advised to call 800-323-BURN for more details. East Pierce Fire urges utilizing alternatives to burning vegetation when feasible. Suggestions include mulching, composting, chipping and hauling yard waste to an approved site. For any other questions or further instructions, visit East Pierce Fire and Rescue’s website at www.eastpiercefire.org, or call the Pierce County Fire Marshal’s office at 253-798-7179.

Sumner YMCA announces co-chairs By Theresa De Lay Staff Writer

YMCA of Pierce and Kitsap Counties recently released the names of Sumner YMCA’s co-chairs. Gary Petersen and Robyn DeLorm are a father-daughter team from Sumner’s Petersen Brother’s, Inc. “My father and I are extremely honored to have the opportunity to work with the community to bring a YMCA to Sumner.

This addition to our city will be one more reason Sumner is a wonderful place to live, work and play. The Y’s positive impact on our community will be felt for generations to come far surpassing our lifetimes,” DeLorm said in a press release. The Sumner YMCA is proposed to open in summer 2015. It will boast 100,000 square feet, making it 30 percent larger than the Gig Harbor facility.

Primary FROM 1 tinuation of adding more sidewalks and streetlights, continued economic development of midtown and (developing a) firm plan for parks, trails and open space funding,” Johnson said, responding to questions Friday. Rackley is a retired accountant presently serving his fourth term on the City Council. Munson is the 16-year owner of West Coast Chippers of Bonney Lake. Both have cited, in advertising or statements, the April election’s failed Metro Parks District

measure as motivation to run. The measure would have created a junior taxing district to fund city parks. “I have lived in Bonney Lake for 50 years,” Munson said. “My great uncle was Allan Yorke of Allan Yorke Park. Furthermore, I have two grandsons and my daughter is a middle school teacher, so I am an advocate for places for kids and families to celebrate (and play). “That said, the MPD was just bad timing. The response from citizens was not overwhelmingly supportive, so that should have been an indication to the City not to go ahead and spend thousands of dollars pursuing

the matter.” Munson said he has some ideas for funding parks “while keeping the bottom line in mind.” Rackley said, in four years, he would like to see the city increase spending on the development of existing parks and for commercial development of Eastown — expected to see construction next year — to continue. “I would like to (improve) the City’s credit rating to ‘AAA,’ get the Eastown improvements finished, and finish annexation of the area south of Bonney Lake,” Rackley said.

‘The Music Man’ continues By Daniel Nash Staff Writer

ManeStage Theatre Company opened its production of “The Music Man” July 20, and continues for two more weekends. “The Music Man” is the classic 1957 musical about Harold Hill (played by Mario Penalver), a con man who poses as a band organizer. Hill doesn’t have a musical bone in his body and, once he’s sold his marks instruments and uniforms, he takes the money and runs. But in River City, Iowa, he meets the no-nonsense Marian (Brittney Stout) and finds a reason to stay put — and perhaps turn his ruse into the truth. Co-starring are Nolan Bailey as Winthrop, Timothy Lott as Mayor Shinn and Marion Read as Eulalie Mackecknie Shinn. The production features a roster of 65 actors and musicians. Brenda and Jay Henson are directing, with local composer Daniel Schreiner acting as music director and conductor. The costumers are Judy Brooks and Jodi Josephson. The show will run Fridays, Saturdays and

Frasier FROM 9 with her and her children for five years and was like an “uncle” to her children. She said the church’s website, Enumclaw.com, “has done nothing but try to defend the character of Malcolm and our church, (it is) not trying to defame anybody.”

Fraser Defense Attorney Ann Carey said, the “minimum sentence is in no way minimum. It is severe. What it does is give the ISRB (Indeterminate Sentencing Review Board) the maximum discretion in determining Mr. Fraser’s release.” She asked for the minimum on each count and for the sentences to run concurrently. Fraser was last to address the court before sentencing. He spoke for about 20 minutes. He had addressed the court for the first time July 23 during the “motion to arrest judgement” hearing, which was denied by Smith. The motion asked

for the judge to overturn the verdict and acquit Fraser. During the sentencing hearing Friday, Fraser once again said he was innocent. He said the sentence of 20 or 26 years “doesn’t make a whole lot of difference” because he would be separated from his wife, church and, “My mom (Carla Williams) for the last 11 years is currently dying of a terminal brain tumor, which was directly

www.blscourierherald.com

brought about by the slander and lies directed at our church and part of this case.” He did refer to the Enumclaw.com issue, stating he did register the domain name and that “our church has many domain names.” He said the contacts were changed to Timothy Williams when he (Fraser) was charged. He denied involvement with Enumclaw.com during the case.

During the trial, the prosecutor brought out Fraser and his wife lived with two members of Enumclaw.com who attended much of the trial as members of the media. Fraser said, “I don’t think any thing on Enumclaw.com has been printed… has been false that I am aware of.” Fraser closed by asking the judge to allow him to see the children from Sound Doctrine. He also told the judge,

“If I was in your honor’s position I would resign rather than do something I knew to be wrong.”

Sentence The judge said she considered all the letters, briefs and testimony connected to the case “long and thoughtfully.” She described the crime as a “very emotionally charged crime. It is a crime that is a breach of trust ….”

“A double back flip seemed like a good idea.”

blotter FROM 5 GRAFFITI: At 8:16 a.m. July 22, an officer contacted the resident of a 179th Avenue Court East address in reference to malicious mischief that had occurred overnight. Someone had spray painted a misogynist slur on the garage door. The caller believed she, and not a roommate, had been the target of the vandalism. She and her ex-husband had poor relations of late, and she had a no-contact order issued against him. There were no witnesses or evidence to support her theory at the time of the report. The officer photographed the damage for evidence and made an estimate on the financial impact of the crime.

MOTOR VEHICLE THEFT: At 6:40 p.m. July 22, a man reported his truck stolen from the Park and Ride. He provided an officer the license plate number and described the vehicle’s distinct characteristics that might aid in identifying it. He authorized police to search and impound the vehicle if recovered.

In imposing her sentence the judge said, “The hope of the court always in sentencing someone is that it is not simply punishment but associated with that is the opportunity and hopefully the end result is there is some sort of rehabilitation. The fact the defendant has a whole network of people who love, trust and believe in him will be helpful in the future, the court hopes.” Fraser has 30 days to file an appeal.

Lumsden a scholar athlete

A total of 75 George Fox University student-athletes, including Bonney Lake resident Chris Lumsden, have been named as Northwest Conference Scholar-Athletes for the 2012-13 academic year. Lumsden, a senior, plays golf for the George Fox Bruins and maintains a 3.64 grade-point average. He is majoring in communications. To be eligible for NWC consideration, a student-athlete must have used a year of eligibility while competing for a team at the varsity level and achieved a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or better for their entire time at the institution. George Fox University is in Newberg, Ore. The Northwest Conference is affiliated with the NCAA Division III.

renaissance FROM 3 ance, first aid and, of course, toilets. “We have to use anachronistic stuff in those cases,” she said. “But as far as the show goes, we want this to be as close to a village in 1571 as possible. Most of our performers try to speak as people back then would speak. It was a chivalrous and courteous time. So the queen will walk by and they will all bow and say ‘God save the queen!’ Visitors obviously don’t have to do that, but all of our performers are working to make this an authentic historical experience.” Merriwick itself has no overarching backstory or historic equivalent. “It’s a rustic English village, it’s 1571, the queen is visiting and the villagers hold a faire for her,” said Amy Forsythe, the Faire’s entertainment director and the president of the nonprofit’s board of directors. However, many of the performers take on the personas of real historic figures. “We’re trying to make this period of history real for our patrons,” she said. “Especially for children in school, they study this time and the people who lived in it and it may not seem real in class or on the page. But they come here and they can see how it is people lived and spoke and interacted.” “I love the reaction of kids at the Faire,” Shere’e Robinson, the financier mentioned earlier, said. “The knighting ceremonies, especially. The Queen is there, she taps them on the shoulders with her

sword, they get their certificate stating they’re a knight or lady of the realm. And, to them, it’s 100 percent real.” Faire performers carry a unique combination of interests: they’re a little bit history buff and a little bit theater nerd in varying balances, with a whole lot of acquired costuming and building skills to flesh out the authenticity. “The day we’re done here, I’m already thinking about next year’s Faire,” Robinson said, echoing a sentiment repeated by everyone who contributed to this story. “I’m researching clothing and historic fabric patterns and whatever else I need.” “That’s the other thing,” piped in Dan, who requested to be referenced by his stage name Beleg Amrth. “These aren’t just costumes that we make. To last for three weeks out here, they have to be clothing quality.” “Yes,” Robinson said. “So when you see me here in costume during Faire, that’s an actual gown I’m wearing.” None of which is to say Faire isn’t accessible to more novice performers. Kelsey Brannagh is a recent college graduate who became interested in Faire indirectly, through her love of the Lord of the Rings books. She doesn’t have a historic identity yet: she identifies herself as “Household Servant No. 2” “She says that, but that has got to be the most important job out here,” Robinson said. “If not for her, we could not do our jobs as the noble court. We couldn’t function.” Many performers start in household servitude as

roads FROM 1 Neighborhood resident John Maddox, a self-identified “firstborn son of Bonney Lake,” said whether the city wanted one square foot or the whole of his mother’s home he wanted $900,000 cash. James McClimans Sr., another council hopeful, said he was concerned the city would use condemnation to obtain right of way. He added that the Renwood project would change the character of the neighborhood in which residents had chosen to live. “There are things a council can do, and the things it should do,” he said. Neighborhood landlord Linda Youngberg came to the meeting from out of town after renters called her with their concerns. “I knew nothing about what was going on with the (Renwood apart-

a matter of pragmatism. It’s a stepping stone: the costumes are typically inexpensive and it’s a relatively simple way to practice the required acting. Faire is a close-knit family, but an open one. Forsythe directs prospective performers to attend improv classes in Seattle to get the hang of playing an unscripted character. And the necessary costuming and building skills can be acquired from other enthusiasts on the internet, Amrth said. “A lot of the time, we’re happy to meet someone else who’s interested in the same things,” noble performer Jane Nasset said. The Renaissance Faire runs from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. the next three weekends. Each weekend will have its own theme: Piratical Plunder, Fantastical Faeries and Her Majesty’s Royal Masquerade on the first, second and third weekends respectively.

ments),” she said. “How I’m seeing this, the little dots (the right of way expansion boundary) run through a piece of property that I own and my daughter owns.” Youngberg added she believed she hadn’t received appropriate notice about the plan. Johnson responded Renwood Apartments LLC, though it had gone through the environmental impact process, had not filed permits or given notice to begin development and thus the apartment project was not yet concrete. “What the plan would be, to widen the road… we might not do it,” he said. “Council could change its mind.” Councilman Mark Hamilton asked Public Works Director Dan Grigbsy to clarify the Transportation Improvement Program as a nonbinding plan submitted to the state. “It does not set priorities, it does not encumber money,” Grigsby

said. “It is strictly based on what the city engineer and the development engineer are aware of might happen where future roads might be built.” Neighborhood resident Lee Davidson said he didn’t want greater traffic flow to endanger children playing in and near the street. “It’s already tight streets, I know (widening) would improve it,” Davidson said. “That would be a help. The problem we have with living there — I live on the corner — is if the apartments go in, the way the streets appear to be designed, it will funnel all those people through our neighborhood instead of … out into the main roads quickly. “I’d love to see the roads improved, but not at the risk of our children.” With the citizen concerns, the council voted to table consideration of the TIP until the Aug. 20 workshop. An Aug. 6 workshop is cancelled for National Night Out Against Crime.

Recreational salmon fishing will open in August and September on the Puyallup River, while fishery managers work to finalize fall salmon fisheries. The sport fishery on the upper portion of Puyallup River will get under way Aug. 1 while the lower stretch will open Aug. 16. Earlier this year, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and Puyallup Tribe of Indians were unable to reach agreement on fisheries during the annual salmon season-setting process, known as North of Falcon. Instead, they agreed to continue negotiating. Those discussions mostly focused on how to best ensure the safety of anglers and tribal gillnet fishers on the river, where conflicts between the two have occurred the last few years. Developing orderly salmon fisheries where anglers and gillnetters share narrow waterways, such as the Puyallup River, is always a

difficult task, said Pat Pattillo, salmon policy coordinator for WDFW. “The safety of everybody on the river is paramount,” said Pattillo. “So openings for sport and treaty commercial fishers will be separated in August and September to ensure everybody has a safe and fair opportunity to catch salmon.” Pattillo said the sport fishing timetable in August and September is consistent with the tribe’s proposal, however, further work is necessary to complete the fishing schedule for October through December. Recreational salmon fishing on the Puyallup River from the City of Puyallup outfall structure across the river from the junction of Freeman Road and North Levee Road upstream to the mouth of the White River is open on the following dates: Recreational salmon fishing on the Puyallup River from the 11th Street Bridge upstream to the City of Puyallup outfall structure across the river from the junction of Freeman Road and North Levee Road, will be open on the following dates: In all areas, anglers will have a daily limit of six salmon (minimum size 12 inches).

The novice’s guide to property short sales Until 2008, most people had never heard the term “short sale.” Unfortunately, in the years since, it has become a phrase that almost everyone is familiar with. So, what is a short sale? Put very simply, a short sale is any sale that doesn’t net enough money to pay the underlying lienholders everything they are owed. For example, if you bought a home in 2006 and wanted to sell it in 2012, in all likelihood it would have been worth substantially less. Unless the seller has the cash to bring to the table to solve that shortage, they will have to ask

on the property, which is a time-consuming and expensive process. If the foreclosure process took nine months Shawn Inmon or longer to Columnist complete, the property was the lender to accept a almost certainly going “short” amount. Why would a lienhold- to be worth less because er accept less than what values had continued to they are owed? There were decline. In an attempt many reasons, particularly to cut their losses, many in a declining market. If lenders simply accepted a they didn’t want to accept smaller amount than they the “short” amount, the were owed. That is why lienholder’s only other we saw so many successful option was to foreclose short sales between 2008 and 2012.

Plateau Real Estate

Things are changing in today’s market, though, and it is directly impacting people’s ability to do short sales. The time-pressure banks were feeling before has gone away in a market where prices are rising. Now, if the lender looks at a short sale versus a foreclosure, foreclosing becomes a more attractive option. If the banks believe the home will likely be worth more nine months down the road, they have no impetus to settle early. This is impacting homeowner’s ability to achieve a successful short sale. Here on the Plateau, I am see-

ing fewer and fewer short sales being completed. Unfortunately, if a homeowner is substantially behind on a mortgage, this potentially removes at least one option for resolving the situation. What’s left? A homeowner can offer a deed in lieu of foreclosure, which allows them to simply turn the keys over to the lender and walk away. In the recent past, lenders have not wanted to accept those easily, but a rising market may make that a more attractive option. One final option is to speak directly to the bank

and see if a loan modification that changes the terms of their mortgage is possible. The best news I’ve seen is a report that says far fewer people are missing that first mortgage payment in 2013. If fewer people are falling behind, we will need fewer methods for dealing with homeowners who can’t stay current. After five years of fallout from the mortgage meltdown, everyone can use the breather.

The Affordable Care Act for Washington’s self-employed Regional Administrator Small Business Administration

There are currently 23 million self-employed entrepreneurs in United States and that number continues to rise, especially here in Washington. These innovative entrepreneurs reflect a diverse array of professions and businesses that are helping to drive our economy – from consultants and IT specialists to painters and roofers. As the number of selfemployed individuals continues to grow, thanks to technology that allows more geographic flexibility and baby boomers looking to open their own firms, one key concern for entrepreneurs looking to go into business for themselves has historically remained unaddressed: health care. Under the Affordable Care Act, self-employed business owners now have more options than ever to find affordable health coverage and it’s important to know the facts about the choices available as you start, or continue to operate, your own business. First, beginning in January 2014, selfemployed individuals and other consumers will be able to purchase their insurance through new Health Insurance Marketplaces (also referred to as Exchanges). All qualified health insurance plans offered

in these new insurance Marketplaces will cover a core package of “essential health benefits” ranging from preventive and wellness services to maternity care and mental health services. The plans will vary according to the percentage of costs the health plan covers. Additionally, issuers may offer catastrophic-only coverage, which includes free prevention and several primary care visits, primarily to young adults under 30 years of age. Enrollment begins Oct. 1 and the Marketplaces open in January 2014. Self-employed individuals may also qualify to get lower costs on monthly premiums when they purchase private health coverage in the Marketplace. When you fill out a Marketplace application, you will learn if you qualify for these lower costs. Depending on income, consumers and the self-employed may also qualify for lower out-ofpocket costs, so they won’t have to pay as much for deductibles, copayments and coinsurance. It’s also important to know that, beginning in 2014, the Individual Shared Responsibility provisions of the Affordable Care Act call for each individual to have: basic health insurance coverage (known as minimum essential coverage) for each month; qualify for an exemption; or, make an Individual Shared Responsibility pay-

ment when filing a federal income tax return starting in 2015. However, if coverage is unaffordable, if you spend less than three consecutive months without coverage, or if you qualify for an exemption for other reasons (including hardship and religious beliefs), you will not be required to make a payment. For many self-employed entrepreneurs, health coverage is a key factor in deciding whether to venture out on their own and transform an idea into a business. By providing access to quality, affordable health insurance, entrepreneurs can focus on helping the economy grow and thrive. And in a country built on the spirit of entrepreneurship, this is good news for us all. To learn more, visit w w w.sba.gov/healthcare or call the Seattle District Office at 206-553-7310.

The high cost of business Gov. Jay Inslee was in New York for the world rollout of BMW’s new electric car, the BMW i3, which is partially built in Washington. We are all justifiably proud of our state’s role and see the car as a harbinger of Washington’s economic future. The BMW i3 features parts made from carbon fiber processed at the SGL plant in Moses Lake. Because it is strong and lightweight, carbon fiber is used in the production of jetliners, fighter planes and racecars. Now, it’s making its way into the retail market to produce lighter more fuel-efficient vehicles that retain their strength and safety ratings. The $100 million SGL plant is located in Moses Lake largely because of affordable energy from hydropower and tax incentives that encourage companies to locate in rural areas. SGL currently employs 80 people and we hope that number will grow. “We’ve got a great opportunity to build a whole ecosystem of industrial development around carbon fiber in our state,” said the governor. But that growth is not assured. SGL would like to expand its Moses Lake facility, but the tax incentive that helped convince the company to locate there has expired. That puts a microscope on other factors that make Washington a highcost state in which to do business — and those costs will weigh heavily on SGL’s decision whether or not to expand. For example, workers’ compensation is an insurance pro-

Washington has the “We peaked out identity for almost a century. highest workers’ comp benefits in the nation. Until recently, those high costs were masked by income from the state f r a n c i s c a n h e a lt h s y s t e m investing employer premiums in the stock market. But the 2008 recession blew a big hole in that income, and we have not yet fully recovered. Another big cost driver for Washington employers is unemployment insurance (UI). Our state has the fifth highest UI benefits in the nation. Ironically, the burden of those costs on employers is magnified in times of high unemployment, and they continue to weigh heavily on employers, even as the economy slowly recovers. Our state’s top manufacturer, The Boeing Company, is dealing with many of those same issues. The Seattle Times reports that, while Boeing is optimistic about the future of its 787 program, which is headquartered in the Puget Sound region, the company’s need to reduce costs is hampering job growth in Washington. Asked about recent job cuts and future job prospects, Boeing’s chief financial officer, Greg Smith, says the company is focusing on growing jobs elsewhere, in lower-cost regions of the country.

Boeing and SGL are constantly re-evaluating their costs and productivity. If they’re not competitive, they won’t expand. Ultimately, they will leave. Similarly, state lawmakers should constantly reassess the impacts of business costs in Washington and ensure that we offer competitive advantages to employers. Washington state has many attributes that attract new employers to our beautiful state. The challenge may be convincing them to stay here.

But that’s no guarantee it will remain here. Perhaps it is time to build on the success of tax incentives that convince employers to locate in Washington by offering similar incentives to existing employers to expand and add jobs here. Employers need a consistent and predictable tax and regulatory environment to make long-term plans. That translates into good familywage jobs with benefits. Competitive pressures never cease, and firms such as
