Agreement reached on water issue LRIG will be decommissioned BY LINDA BALL
Dick L’Heureux is on round two of trying to get Klahanie and surrounding neighborhoods annexed to the city of Issaquah.
BALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
Issaquah has abandoned plans to inject polluted storm water from the Issaquah Highlands into the ground above an aquifer, also near a well used by the Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District to provide water to its customers. After nine hours of mediation Jan. 13, parties including Issaquah, Sammamish, the district and the state Department of Ecology agreed that the Lower Reid Infiltration Gallery (LRIG) will be decommissioned this year. As part of the agreement, the district will pay Issaquah $1 million toward the decommissioning and to assist in building a new storm water management system that will not connect to the aquifer. “I can confirm that the district and the city signed a memorandum of agreement that would resolve issues regarding the LRIG and assumption,” said Jay Krauss, general manager of district.

KLAHANIE To annex or not: Both sides tell their story The case for ‘yes’ Dick L’Heureux has lived in his home in Brookshire Estates since it was built 27-years ago. One of the neighborhoods within the Klahanie Potential Annexation Area (PAA), he and his neighbor, Mike Foss, hope it is annexed to the city of Issaquah. The decision goes before voters Feb. 11. “The issue is, we identify with the city of Issaquah,” L’Heureux said. L’Heureux is the president of the Brookshire Estates Homeowners Association and Foss is the vice-president. Foss has lived there for about 13 years. L’Heureux was involved in the 2005 annexation
attempt, which failed. In that vote, the ballot measure was split into two parts — one to annex, the other to assume the bonded indebtedness of Issaquah. The second part brought it down. “We were blind-sided then,” L’Heureux said. This time only annexation is on the ballot. “How often do you move to a city and say ‘I don’t use that park so I’m not going to pay for it?’” Foss asked. The two point out that Issaquah is already built out. It has its infrastructure in place – the hatchery, the theater, and is an “outstanding community,” they said. Taxes are the big issue. L’Heureux and Foss said they used actual levy rates for Issaquah, Sammamish and King County and did a com-
How to cast your vote ■ Ballots should be in voters mailboxes by Jan. 24. They must be returned by Feb. 11. Mailed ballots require first class postage. Note that first class postage increases to 49 cents effective Jan. 26. ■ A 24-hour drop-off box is available at Issaquah City Hall, 130 E. Sunset Way from Feb. 23 to Feb. 11. The box closes at 8 p.m. parison. The study done by Nesbitt Planning last year used $320,000 as an average single family residence value, but both men said $500,000 is more accurate now. They said with annexation, property taxes would be close to $800 less than what they pay now as part of unincorporated King County. If they were part of Sammamish, taxes would be about $480 less. They said they took a simple approach using their own
tax bills and a friend’s who lives in Issaquah. The city of Issaquah has said it doesn’t have the funds to widen Issaquah-Fall City Road, but L’Heureux and Foss said the road is a regional issue, not a city issue. Whether or not the annexation is approved, the road is bounded by King County and Sammamish.

Students and supporters deliver petitions to archdiocese Eastside Catholic alumni join student protest to support vice principal BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
Students, supporters and alumni of Eastside Catholic School have delivered more than 21,000 petition signatures to Seattle Archbishop J. Peter Sartain in support of former vice-principal Mark Zmuda, who was fired Dec. 19 when it was revealed he had married his gay partner last summer. “Please listen to the students at Eastside Catholic and reinstate their vice principal,” the petition reads. “If Pope Francis says he won’t judge gays and lesbians, you shouldn’t be firing them.” The same petition was delivered to the administration at Eastside Catholic School. It was written by a group called Faithful America and signed by people from all over the world. Mary Helen Nuxoll Kopczynski, class of 1996 and the school’s first female student body president, now lives in New York, but is very involved. “The alumni group is well over 300 strong,” she said. “It’s not going to get any less disruptive.” The priest at St. Joseph Parish in Seattle, John Whitney, has deemed the students at Eastside Catholic “the orange and blue apostles,” after the school’s colors. Local alumni organizer, Corey Sinser, spoke at the demonstration in front of the
hands, but everyone knows it wasn’t,” Kopczynski said. She is referring to the school’s administration blaming it on the archdiocese. However, on the archdiocese’s website, under Catholic Schools, it specifically states of Eastside Catholic, “this school is a Catholic institution that is separately incorporated and is not part of the Corporation of the Catholic ArchLeft: Eastside Catholic alumni Corey Sinser holds bishop of Seattle. It is the petition presented to not sponsored, directed, the Archbishop of Seattle. administered or managed Above: Kirby Brown by the Archbishop of addresses the crowd.

The school’s alumni has set up a Facebook Kopczynski said she knows for certain that page called, “Sister Mary, please resign,” two teachers who were at EC for decades referring to Sister Mary Tracy, the school’s were Jewish. president and CEO. The issue has been “How are they supposed to follow Catholic discussed on CNN’s Anderson Cooper doctrine?,” she queried, since the school fired show. Kopczynski said they’ve contacted the Zmuda for not following Catholic doctrine.

which wants to change church doctrine, one which addresses concerns of the LGBT community, a wrongful termination committee and a poor leadership committee that is concerned about bad decisions. “They fired 17 teachers in 2010 for wanting a grievance policy, and they were all given $7,000 to stay quiet,” Kopczynski said. “We are the crusaders, we are the product of this school and we don’t agree. I’m having a tough time understanding these weird unilateral, dark decisions.” In addition, Kopczynski said the alumni want to see the school’s board include two parents, two teachers and two alumni, not just “rich people.” She said the school’s attorney, Michael Patterson, donated $90,000 to the school and he is also the attorney for the archdiocese, which would seem to be a conflict of interest. At Wednesday’s demonstration, Kirby Brown, who attends St. Mary’s Parish in Seattle, said he was at the event to support Zmuda, but more so the students. “It’s more than a spark, they started a firestorm,” Brown said. Jason Pustek came all the way from Gig Harbor. “If Jesus were here today, he wouldn’t be in Sartain’s office, he’d be out here with us,” Pustek said. An even larger event is scheduled for Jan. 31, which is part of National Catholic Schools Week. An event in a neutral location, yet to be determined, will include a celebrity panel and include several Catholic and nonCatholic schools. “If she’d (Tracy) admit she made a mistake and brought him (Zmuda) back, we’d let it go,” Kopczynski said.

Sammamish adopts moratorium on homeless encampments BY KELLY MONTGOMERY KMONTGOMERY@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
The Sammamish City Council put a sixmonth moratorium on homeless encampments Tuesday night to give the council, city staff and the community time to develop permanent regulations. The moratorium ended Tent City 4’s 90day stay as of Saturday, Jan. 18. The decision came as police and sheriff ’s deputies arrested a Tent City resident Jan. 9 for felony possession of narcotics. The 38-year-old man was found carrying a pipe used to smoke methamphetamine. A small amount of methamphetamine was found in the pipe. After his arrest, police say the man claimed to have sold methamphetamine to 12 residents of Tent City 4 earlier that day. A search of his tent turned up no additional drugs. Another man, age 22, will also be charged with felony narcotics possession. He was arrested on Dec. 18 when he stopped by the Sammamish Police station to obtain previously confiscated items upon being kicked out of Tent City 4. He had small baggie of methamphetamine in his jacket pocket. “Our officers have been monitoring Tent City 4 from the beginning,” Sammamish Police Chief Nate Elledge told the council Jan. 14. “Up until recently, most of the incidents we followed up on were relatively minor. But here at the end of their stay, we encountered some serious issues.” Elledge said the department responded to 30 calls during the three months, with 15 calls in the first two months and 15 more calls in the last month. Elledge said calls did increase when the 30-day extension was granted, but they are unsure as to why.
The 30 instances included five disturbance calls, a missing person call, a warrant arrest and a narcotic investigation. The city said that while following up on reports that drugs were being used and sold inside Tent City 4, Sammamish police, with the help of detectives from the Sheriff ’s Office, conducted an investigation that resulted in the arrests of the two men. City manager Ben Yazici said it’s unfortunate that some residents decided to break Tent City 4’s internal code of conduct, but that he was proud of the results the Sammamish police produced. Tent City 4 set up camp at Mary Queen of Peace Church on Oct. 19, and after 60days, received a 30-day extension so it could remain during the holiday season. While there was legitimate talk of Good Samaritan Episcopal Church hosting Tent City 4 following their departure from Mary Queen of Peace, Good Samaritan backed out suddenly for unknown reasons. Good Samaritan had held an emergency meeting on Jan. 9 and Rev. Suzi Robertson said that church leadership voted unanimously to host Tent City 4, stating, “Good Samaritan is making plans with city officials, and a wealth of support from the broader community to be Tent City 4’s next host.” However, four days later it pulled the request. Rev. Robertson said she couldn’t comment on the matter. “The difficulty and challenge as we go forward is that we haven’t engaged the community in the regulations,” Yazici said. “I think the church, our community and the city council deserve credit for their generous spirit. We took our turn and handled it as well as we could.” Yazici said he hopes the problems discovered at the Sammamish encampment

Sammamish and Issaquah, but also communities throughout the Snoqualmie Valley and Bellevue. She also coordinated the group’s name change from Faith in Action in order to better describe the mission of the organization.

Eastside Friends of Seniors has begun the search for a new administrator. The nonprofit, founded in 1997, provides assistance to older residents in the community to help them maintain their independence. The organizations offices are located in the basement of the Mary Queen of Peace Catholic Church in Sammamish. Executive Director Claire Petersky resigned her position after guiding fundraising activities for the past five years. She plans to travel to Asia, where she will be exploring various cultures and religious landmarks. “I am immensely proud of what Eastside Friends of Seniors has achieved in these five years, and I am tremendously grateful that I have been able to play a central part in its evolution and success” said Petersky. “There is much to celebrate.” In her years with Eastside Friends, Petersky expanded services to include not only
won’t keep Tent City from finding another location. “Although the leadership of Tent City 4 clearly has some work to do, I trust that everyone’s good efforts will lead to better days ahead,” Yazici said. Other council members spoke up about the positivity that Tent City 4 had brought to the community. “Tent City has been a wonderful experience for the city,” deputy mayor Kathy Huckabay said. “The concern I’m sure the community has is where Tent City is going to go and whether we are forcing them out.” Huckabay also said that she thinks taking the six-month moratorium will give the city some much-needed time to organize. “I look forward to getting through that process and having the opportunity to have you back,” Huckabay said, speaking to the Tent City members. Council member Nancy Whitten echoed that view, stating that the city needs to make room for more affordable housing options,
but in a way that is equitable to all parties. “I wanted to say thank you for coming. You have contributed a lot to the community,” Whitten said. “We do need to get our ducks in order and make it fair to the neighbors and figure out what’s best for the community.” Council members were in agreement about completing the moratorium as soon as possible. “We do need to give our residents the opportunity to weigh in,” Council member Tom Odell said. “We need to give some thought as to how we deal with all of this. But I would be in favor of trying to get this thing done as soon as possible.” Members of Tent City 4 spoke at the meeting, thanking the city and community for being welcoming and supportive. They said that they wish Issaquah, Woodinville or Redmond would invite them to stay, but they have not. They are unsure where they will be going next, but they assured the council that they would be out of Sammamish by Jan. 18.
Federal Consumer Protection has confirmed the fuel savings described in this advertisement.
Why does Federal Consumer Protection disagree so vehemently with Consumer Reports on the effectiveness of the Platinum Gas Saver?
Washington - Consumer Reports accepts the conventional wisdom, promoted by the oil companies, that 95% of the fuel burns inside the average gasoline engine. Federal Consumer Protection disagrees. Test data by the EPA and Champion Spark Plug prove that the average engine burns only 68% of your fuel. The remaining 32% is simply thrown away. In addition Consumer Protection confirms that economic quantities of platinum added to the air fuel mixture as supplied by the Platinum Gas Saver will increase miles per gallon by 22% because the platinum catalyzes 22% more of each
gallon to burn inside your engine. In addition, the Gas Saver has received patents for cleaning out the abrasive carbon and raising octane, making the higher cost gasolines unnecessary for most vehicles. Joe Robinson, the developer, commented: “Since the government concluded its study, we have sold a half million Gas Savers. To our surprise, more people buy the Gas Saver because it extends engine life by cleaning out the abrasive carbon than buy it to raise octane or to increase gas mileage.” For further information call: 1-800-LESS-GAS 1-800-537-7427

‘No’ on annexation would give time to decide on options I would like to clear up some issues brought forth in a rebuttal statement to my earlier letter. It is only conjecture that King County would serve us better than Sammamish. It is true that Issaquah relies more on sales taxes than Sammamish, which relies on property taxes. Sales taxes are affected by recessions. Sammamish stayed strong during the recent downturn, while Issaquah had to cut back essential services during that period. I fully appreciate Mr. L'Heureux and his Brookshire neighbors have a strong attachment to Issaquah since their children attend Issaquah High School. Many of us in Klahanie feel like we are a neighborhood of Sammamish since our children go to Skyline High School. I suggested to the Boundary Review Board that Issaquah delay this election to consider the possibility of changing the annexation boundaries to the high school boundaries. This idea would allow Brookshire to annex to Issaquah and Klahanie and neighborhoods to the north can look
at Sammamish. Both Issaquah and Sammamish are well established cities. Sammamish is recognized as one of the top residential cities in America by Money Magazine. There is strong sentiment for voting No on Issaquah Annexation so we can fully evaluate the whole situation and determine the best future for the entire annexation area. So many of us look to Sammamish as our future. I agree that voters carefully consider the facts. Tom Harman, Klahanie Tom Harman is a commissioner of the Sammamish Plateau Water & Sewer District. The opinions are his and don't reflect the views of the district.
'Yes' vote helps residents I would like remind my neighbors on the Plateau that there will be an important election on Feb. 11 about the annexation of the area known as the Klahanie PAA into the city of Issaquah. A vote of “yes” on the measure promises to bring lower property taxes to the area and will provide the Plateau with many badly needed services not provided by King County. A vote of “no” will keep the area in unincorporated King county, things will remain the same – essentially “taxation without
representation.” I should warn you that a few days before the vote you can expect to see a flood of misinformation about this election; those against, will try to cast doubt about the annexation. Don’t listen to them, study the issues and then decide for yourself. I’ve lived on the Plateau for over 25
years. I like Issaquah and want it to be my city. Issaquah has many desirable features for a city: stores, restaurants, theaters, a modern hospital, a post office, parks, and much more. I will vote “yes” on the annexation and I urge you to do the same. Butch DeVun, Issaquah

highest performing in the state and there is little doubt that local investment in local education is among the best way a community can support its youth and local economy. Strong schools mean healthy families, bright futures and a strong local economy. Let’s keep this going for Issaquah’s students and our community. Vote yes on the Issaquah school levies. Matt Bott Now, let me turn to some observations about the future of business and education. Across the nation, we are seeing relatively unprecedented engagement with, and partnership between, the business and education communities. The winning communities of the future will have this partnership down to a “science.” Nobody knows this more than chambers of commerce. Chambers are engaging in a myriad of education/business partnerships. And they must. The talent level of a local workforce is probably the defining factor, next to a pro-business regulatory climate, in whether a business will invest jobs in a community or move on to greener pastures. The gaps are clear. Internships. Workforce training. Youth un(and under)employment. Critical thinking skills. Academic rigor. Entrepreneurial training. Different communities will have different needs and different responses. In Issaquah, career-pathways is a big topic. Locally, our work mirrors this trend in business-education

partnerships. This May, the chamber’s Education Committee, led by the talented Cornell Atwater of LearningRX, in collaboration with the school district, schools foundation and others, will hold our second Great Careers event. The program helps hundreds of local students identify meaningful career pathways that match their skills and ambitions. Another area is internship programs. In Issaquah alone there are hundreds of businesses that could (and many do) provide real-world experience to local students as a part of their development. The notable work of Superior Seconds, a downtown locally-owned sporting goods store, which mentors middle and high school students and engages in community youth drug prevention efforts, is just one example. And regionally, the more we can attack the skills gap – particularly in science, technology, engineering and math – through dynamic, innovative business-education partnerships, the more successful we will be. Meaningful business-education partnerships, be they in the form of workforce development, career readiness or entrepreneur training, is a welcome trend and valuable tool for community advancement. Vote "yes" on the levies in February, and join us in helping our kids succeed and our community thrive in months and years to follow. Matthew Bott is the chief executive officer of the Greater Issaquah Chamber of Commerce. He writes on topics regarding the local/regional economy and community leadership.

Issaquah head coach Jason Griffith knows his team has done nearly all it could through the first half of the 4A KingCo basketball season, posting a 6-1 mark ahead of tonight’s game against Newport. But that doesn’t mean he is satisfied. “I don’t feel like we’re playing our best basketball yet,” he said. Even if his team hasn’t begun to reach its peak, the Eagles have situated themselves nicely for a run at a season that reaches beyond the conference tournament, something that has happened only once since the 2004-05 season. While his team has won its last three games by no fewer than nine points and by an average of 12, Griffith said early season wins over Roosevelt and Ballard should pay dividends down the stretch. “We’ve had a couple of grinders,” he said. “They were games that weren’t very pretty to watch. But it is nice our kids have the ability to play that style if needed.”

The WIAA released classification numbers for its next two-year cycle, 201416, and there were no changes among Issaquah-Sammamish area schools. The cutoff for Class 4A was 1,252.4 students, and the number used does not reflect students who attend a program outside of their attendance area, such as STEM. Issaquah and Skyline were well within the 4A boundary, with the Eagles counting 1,464.2 and the Spartans at 1,452. Eastlake counted at 1,168.8, which meant it could have dropped to compete in Class 3A athletics. But athletic direct Pat Bangasser said that was never considered, and the amount of success the Wolves have enjoyed in team and individual sports has them confident they will be able to continue to compete for state spots and league titles while opting-up. “Our coaches wanted to stay in 4A with natural rivalries, and we think we can compete at the 4A level,” he said. “I got input from coaches, our principle, and I made the final decision.” Eastlake reached the state quarterfinals in football before losing to eventual runner-up Camas, and could become the home of the state’s second eight-time individual title winner in swim and dive when senior Edward Kim hits the pool later this season.

KLAHANIE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
“I think it will be a multi-jurisdictional effort to widen it,” Foss said. “I think that’s definitely on King County and Issaquah’s lists.” Both men acknowledge that a large part of the PAA borders Sammamish, but the Klahanie PAA started developing in the early ‘90s when the Growth Management Act was created to provide structure to growth. Sammamish didn’t incorporate until 1999. “We’re not anti-Sammamish, we just don’t identify with that as where we live,” L’Heureux said. Foss said he doesn’t really see that Sammamish has reached out and said they wanted the PAA until recently, whereas Issaquah has funded two studies costing thousands of dollars on annexation of the areas. “Issaquah has been interested in us for 10 years,” Foss said. As far as assuming Issaquah’s debt, they say, sure, Issaquah has debt, but the city has been around for 100 years. They say by design Sammamish is an area of resident taxpayers, but when it starts building more infrastructure, it will be on the backs of taxpayers. And, they feel that if business in Sammamish picks up, it will create a B&O tax, just like Issaquah. Issaquah has said it will hire five more police officers if the area is annexed, but some say Issaquah is already understaffed on police. “I can’t imagine they’re going to spend that kind of money (for the officers) if they’re going to keep them on the valley floor,” Foss said. Foss said once when he called to report on suspicious activity, the sheriff deputy who responded had to come all the way from Edmonds. “I’m absolutely certain our police coverage will be greatly improved,” Foss said. “I think there’s a real good chance they’ll put a couple of officers at Eastside Fire and Rescue’s station 83 (which is the closest to the PAA).” As regards fire coverage, EFR will still be there, and L’Heureux said EFR has been very supportive.
The case for ‘no’ Don Gerend is a former mayor of Sammamish and is on the
The map of the Klahanie PAA illustrates where its boundaries are with respect to Issaquah and Sammamish. City Council, but he also is representing a group called Klahanie Choice. Gerend has lived in the Pine Lake neighborhood since 1979 and has been on the city council of Sammamish since the city incorporated in 1999. The Klahanie PAA was not part of the Sammamish incorporation because its board couldn’t decide if it wanted to be part of a new city. It also may have been concerned because an early ‘90s vote to incorporate Sammamish failed. The Klahanie board said in 2002 that it wanted to be part of Sammamish, and that a May 6, 2002 Memorandum of Understanding said Issaquah agreed to release the area from the PAA. Issaquah reads the memorandum differently. In the 2005 Issaquah annexation attempt, Gerend told the state Boundary Review Board that it didn’t make sense geographically or socially to join Issaquah since most of the kids in the PAA went to schools in Sammamish. Regarding roads, Gerend said Sammamish did a depreciation schedule many years ago on all of its roads, concluding the city needed to have $3 million a year for road maintenance, which it has maintained. “We would do the same thing for Klahanie,” he said. “We’d set up a schedule — it might be $800,000 a year but that’s what we’d do. I dare you to find a pothole in Sammamish.” He said Sammamish has $70 million in the bank and no bonded indebtedness. Responding to the concern that
Sammamish will eventually burden taxpayers with debt, he said the city had debt — $2 million to create the lower Sammamish Commons, which it paid off. The city is spending $25 million of its savings for the new community center. Sammamish charges developers impact fees because, he said, growth should pay for itself. “We’re not going to increase debt, because we pay it off,” he said. He said if the PAA were to annex to Sammamish, the city has the funds on-hand to make the traffic and safety improvements to Issaquah-Fall City Road. “Transportation-wise, we’re motivated — Issaquah is not,” Gerend said. Sammamish is one of six cities in Washington to have a triple A bond rating, Gerend pointed out. Also it does not charge its taxpayers a utility tax. Per calculations by Klahanie Choice, which used the $320,000 example from the Nesbitt study for property value, if Klahanie were to annex to Sammamish it would save a homeowner $532 per year over what they’re paying King County, and $619 if annexed to Issaquah, a difference of $87. Klahanie Choice says the addition of five extra patrol officers actually results in a net decline of police coverage for Issaquah, spreading the force even thinner than it is. “This is the far extremity of Issaquah,” Gerend said. “If you look at Sammamish we’re already patrolling its perimeter.” Sammamish’s police force is made up of King County deputies. Gerend said the advantage to using county deputies is they have access to their SWAT teams and helicopters. He pointed out that Sammamish is the eighth safest city in the U.S. and in 50 years there has not been a homicide on the plateau. Gerend said if Sammamish did annex the PAA, it would hire at least six more deputies. The Sammamish City Council passed a resolution Jan. 7 to fast-track the annexation and merging process if annexation to Issaquah doesn’t pass. He said if Issaquah does not release the PAA from its comprehensive plan in the event of a “no” vote, the citizens of Sammamish and King County can go to the boundary review board and the Growth Management Planning Council and ask them to release it. Furthermore, Gerend said if the Issaquah annexation is defeated, Sammamish wouldn’t oppose Brookshire and the other neighborhoods south of Southeast 48th Street petitioning to be part of Issaquah. He noted that Aldarra Estates and Montaine neighborhoods in east Sammamish annexed to Sammamish by petition.

Seahawks players reach out to help area families BY JOHN BOYLE
JBOYLE@HERALDNET.COM
When Seattle Seahawks tight end Zach Miller got a phone call from a friend and former college teammate, he didn’t think much about the simple act of signing a football and some Seahawks merchandise and sticking them in the mail. The call came from Cincinnati Bengals guard Mike Pollak, who played with Miller at Arizona State. Pollak had heard from his wife about Dave and Kristina Quick, Seahawks fans with newborn twins, one of whom was at Seattle Children’s Hospital following multiple surgeries. Kristina Quick and Kristi Pollak had attended physical therapy school together and Kristi suggested to her husband that they reach out to the Millers, whose wife, Ashley, had recently given birth to twins. On the other end of that gesture, Dave Quick came
home from a two-day stint at the hospital where his son Franklin had recently undergone open-heart surgery, opened a mysterious package on his front porch and shed a few tears. “I still have trouble putting into words the feeling that I had. Our life was the hospital, every day, all day,” Quick said. The best part about this story – and the reason Dave Quick felt compelled to reach out to a reporter to tell it – is that the kindness and caring shown the Quicks is not all that unusual. “I can definitely relate to anyone who has twins or premature babies,” said Miller, whose twin girls were born seven weeks early and spent three weeks in the NICU at Evergreen Hospital in Kirkland. The Seahawks roster is full of people who understand
they can make a much bigger impact off the field than on it. Soon, Russell and Ashton Wilson included Franklin’s room on one of their weekly visits. “It’s just a special thing for me, and it’s one of those things where they don’t realize how much they give to me,” Wilson said. “It gives you a tremendous amount of perspective. When you have a kid who’s 8-years-old who wants to be able to play football, but he can’t because he has a bone problem, or a brain tumor, or something like that. — it’s unfortunate. You just want to give them hope and let them know you’re praying for them.” Wilson and so many Seahawks understand that they can be more to fans than just Sunday entertainment. John Boyle is Sports Editor of The Herald in Everett.

The issue has been contentious because Issaquah has also been considering assuming water and sewer services provided by the Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District to customers within it’s borders since at least 2011. Issaquah had cited its “expertise, knowledge and the skills — and a bigger picture focus on land use and need than the district does.” “While there are varying viewpoints on this issue, we agree to focus our resources on quality service and not litigation,” said Issaquah Mayor Fred Butler. Krauss agreed, saying that it is important for the two units of government to work together rather than pursue separate courses that are independent of one another.
The agreement requires the parties to negotiate an interlocal agreement. A draft will be prepared no later than Feb. 18, with final action expected by March 17. If Issaquah determines that it still wants to assume areas the district serves in the city within the next 10 years, it would only do so with the district’s consent. Within three years, the city and the district, along with Sammamish, will discuss governance and delivery options for utility services. Issaquah further agreed not to recommission the LRIG or inject or infiltrate storm water at the LRIG without written approval from the district. Issaquah also agreed to withdraw its application to the DOE for state waste discharge permit within 10 days of the execution of the interlocal agreement. Additionally, the district will remove the link to its website, www.letstalkaboutwater. org.
