State warms up to improving HOT lanes accessibility
Pacific makes role changes

What do you think?
By the end of this summer, the Washington State Department of Transportation expects it will have made it easier for motorists to get into the HOT (high occupancy toll) lanes on State Route 167. That is, by replacing the double-white, restricted entry and exit points with a single white line, drivers will be able to change lanes at almost any location, and not only at designated access points. Patty Rubstello, toll operations director for the WSDOT, said 40 percent of the drivers in a 2012 customer survey told the state that they heartily disliked those restrictive entry and exit points and wanted getting in and out of the HOT lanes to be easier. Transit agencies have

also let the state know it’s a pain for them to use the HOT lanes because buses often have to get on and off the highway to make stops, Rubstello told Auburn Mayor Nancy Backus and the City Council during a recent briefing on the SR 167 Hot Lanes Project. But why switch to a single-white line, asked Councilman Rich Wagner. “If it’s OK to cross, why aren’t there dotted lines as well?” Wagner said. “It’s just the way the federal highways requires the striping to be done [ more HOT page 4 ]

Busy Valley Freeway: State engineers are planning to re-stripe the HOT lanes on State Route 167, a change they hope will improve traffic flow. ROSS COYLE, Reporter
A trio of job descriptions fattened Pacific’s municipal code this week. On Monday, the Pacific City Council voted unanimously on Resolution 2014-157, which updates the City’s organizational chart, splits the community development manager position into two new roles – public works manager and community development manager – and updates the City administrator’s role. Guier “The job descriptions passed council,” said Mayor Leanne Guier, who proposed the changes May 3 at the council retreat. “We still have to get a budget amendment passed in council in June because the positions are not yet in our budget.” Guier said she had decided to split the community development director position six months ago when the City was looking to fill the vacant post.

White House honors young scientists STAFF REPORT
When a serious infestation of aphids or plant lice recently threatened to gobble up the green in their school’s greenhouse, Celine Patrick and Ashlee Tarro solved the problem without harsh pesticides. For their work, a recent White House event for students who excel in science honored these two local members of the National FFA Organization. Tarro, 15, of Auburn, and Patrick,
15, of Lake Tapps, members of the Sumner High School FFA chapter in Sumner, received the invitation to the 2014 White House Science Fair Tuesday. The event honored the accomplishments of student winners of a broad range of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) competitions throughout the U.S. This year’s event included a specific focus on girls and women who [ more HONOR page 2 ]

Guier said the changes should benefit the City by putting experienced people in each: someone for the community development job who is apt at navigating bureaucratic red tape and has a background in grant writing; and someone with a more hands-on, nutsand-bolts public works background to be the public works manager. “I thought that if I split them, they could get together and get some grants for some projects that we need in the city,” Guier said.

Patrick and Tarro took first place in their category and division at the 2013 National FFA Agriscience Fair, an annual competition during the National FFA Convention & Expo that features the research and results of FFA members who plan on pursuing careers in the science and technology of agriculture. Their accomplishment earned them the special White House invite. The duo’s research was critical to creating healthy and safe plants for Sumner FFA members to take home to their mothers as Mother’s Day gifts. “We explored alternative methods for their control,” Tarro said. “All three of the methods that we tested proved safe, though some were more labor intensive than others.”

in Pacific’s municipal code, Guier said – should help the mayor and the City by allowing the finance director to be in charge of dayto-day operations and to oversee department heads. “When you look at all the other cities around, whether they are strong mayor or (council manager), they all have an administrator to look over the department heads,” Guier said. “The Pacific mayor job is a part-time position. This lets us have someone in the building to make decisions if I’m not able to be reached, although I am usually available, at least by phone. It’s really going to give us a strong organizational flow.” The council plans to revisit the issue in June when it decides whether to pass a budget amendment to fund the positions. Both students this school year took an elective science classes. Patrick studied biotechnology and Tarro studied honors chemistry. In the White House East Room, Patrick and Tarro listened to remarks by President Obama and mingled with other guests, including their peers, professional scientists, senior government leaders and private sector representatives. “We are happy to have Celine and Ashley as our honored guests,” said Dr. Danielle Carnival, senior policy advisor at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. “The previous three science fairs have been favorite events of President Obama as he is always eager to learn more about what the most promising and impressive young scientists, engineers and inventors have been up to across the country.” The event was webcast live at www.whitehouse. gov/live.

AFTER
GOT MOLD? Rodent Problem?
Every year since 1996, administrative staff members of the Auburn Police Department have compiled a workload analysis to study trends and provide guidance for the planning of future police services. Two weeks ago, Police Chief Bob Lee presented the 2103 report to the City’s Municipal Services Committee. The report shows what happened between 2009 and 2013 in categories ranging from the number of computer automated dispatch, or CAD, incidents to response times and incident reports, from the number of arrests and bookings to the total number of violent crimes committed. Below is a summary of some of that data, reflecting changes in a span of time when the City’s population increased from 67,485 to 73,235 people and the number of police officers dropped from 102 to 100. • CAD calls — down from 75,552 calls in 2009 to 71,512 in 2013. • On average, each resident of Auburn made .98 calls for police services in 2013. • Response times for types of calls: priority one calls, when there is a confirmed hazard that could result in extensive loss of life or property, increased slightly between 2009 and 2013, from 3.4 minutes to 3.7 minutes; priority two calls, concerning a minimal hazard with considerably less potential for loss of life or property, increased from 9.5 to 14.9 minutes; response times for priority three calls, that is, calls that are low-hazard, non-life threatening, increased from 17.3 to 22.8 minutes;

Also in June, Boeing contractors will use smaller equipment to collect one-time underground water samples in a study to determine whether the contaminated area extends under eastern Algona. Workers will use truck-mounted machinery to make 14 probes, nine along the Interurban Trail, and five along Milwaukee Avenue. Contractors for Boeing will conduct all work between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. on weekdays.

who choose to use the HOT lanes must install a Good To Go! pass in their vehicle and have an active Good To Go! account. A switchable pass may be turned on or off, depending on the number of people in the vehicle. Rubstello said the HOT lanes are working. “Our performance in the last fiscal year processed more than a million transactions and collected more than $1.1 million in toll revenue,” Rubstello said. “From 2008 to today, we continue to see a steady increase in those using the lanes. And what we’re finding is that users are getting an eight-minute savings time in their trips for a $2 toll. And we’re all noticing that general purpose lanes are improving as well. So, we’re seeing an improvement in the travel speeds, and the volume has gone down as people have shifted from the general purpose lanes into those HOT lanes.”

WORK CREWS will use heavy equipment to install long-term monitoring wells and collect additional underground water samples in Algona next month. The work is part of a continuing investigation into an area of contaminated groundwater that originated on property in Auburn owned by The Boeing Co. Contractors expect to begin in the second week of June, and the work should continue for seven weeks. The Washington Department of Ecology oversees the investigation – conducted and paid for by Boeing – into past releases of liquid solvents at the company’s facility. Investigators are seeking to confirm the location and determine the potential impacts of groundwater contamination, primarily trichloroethene (TCE), and other chemicals such as vinyl chloride (VC), which form when TCE breaks down.

My trouble with free health care
I’ve run into a major problem with Obamacare: I can’t get rid of my free health care. Let’s retrace my freeloading steps. I’ve held a string of full-time jobs since college that always offered health insurance. I moved to Seattle in July 2013, months before open enrollment for the Affordable Care Act. I started this adventure without any known employment, so I coasted for a month on COBRA. Some freelance writing paid by the hour, but no benefits, so I traveled the private insurance route for the first time. I purchased an affordable plan that covered the basics for just over $100 per month. That plan more than doubled on Jan. 1. This increase also coincided with the bubble bursting on my freelance opportunities. Thus, I was down to one job, which paid $50 per article – and they only needed me to write one article per week. Although I am a pretty frugal man, even I can’t live off $200 a month in Capitol Hill, where my relatively inexpensive rent for a studio apartment cost upwards of $1,000 per month. Luckily, I had a Sugar Mama (I love you, Laura) to keep me afloat. Barely. So back to the insurance situation. I wasn’t sure what to expect with the new health plan portal. All I’d heard were complaints in the media. They were basically all true. Calling was worthless. The website would freeze before I could enter anything about myself. The system eventually improved. After about a week, the Washington Health Benefit Exchange website allowed me to document my monthly income to see what plan I’d qualify for. So I double checked my math and, yup, still just $200 a month. I’d qualified for Apple Health Care. I never needed to show proof, and, as far as I know, they never validated my truthfulness with any sort of background check. I also found no expiration date.

City needs to do something about rundown buildings What is going on with the very rundown modular buildings that have become a real eyesore? These buildings sit behind the church at the entrance to Lakeland Hills. They have been sitting there and not moved nor has anything been done with them for the past five years. The tarps have blown off the roofs, and
berry bushes are growing up the side of a couple of them. If the church is not going to do anything with them, maybe it needs to donate them to someone who can use them and get a tax write-off. They look terrible, and it is not very attractive to have to see these rundown buildings every time you drive up Lakeland Hills Way. Can the City of Auburn ask the church to do something with them or get rid of them? A concerned Lakeland Hills homeowner.

For anything. Like Medicaid. In fact, it was Medicaid. This sounded wonderful. Perhaps a little too wonderful. I felt a little dirty. I was still surviving on savings and didn’t want to be sucking from the taxpayer teat if not truly on my last couple pennies. It’s not that I’m ungrateful. I appreciate the idea of free health care for those, like I was, who need help in a transition or are down on

VFW Post 1741 is doing a Buddy Poppy Drive, with proceeds going to a post-relief fund, used solely to help veterans and their families. The Buddy Poppy is a small silk flower, made by hospitalized veterans at VA medical centers throughout the nation. It is based on the poem, “In Flanders Field,” written by a Canadian Army physician while serving at a medical station during the First World War. Since that time, the poppy has become a symbol of veterans throughout the world. In the U.S., the Veterans of Foreign Wars hold annual drives, distributing the cheery red flower and accepting donations. Drives are usually held on Memorial Day and Veterans Day, when the nation takes time to remember veterans’ sacrifices. Donations are being accepted at www.vfw 1741.com.

Residential valuation notices mailed to property owners FOR THE REPORTER
King County Assessor Lloyd Hara’s office mailed the 2014 property valuations to all residential property owners in Area 58 – east Auburn/southeast Kent located in Southeast King County on May 22. Area 58 residential property values increased overall by 13.8 percent, but individual property values might vary. The Assessor’s Office will continue to mail out more than 600,000 residential and commercial valuation notices to taxpayers throughout the rest of King County between May and October. Residential property is assessed each year at 100 percent of its true and fair market value in money, which is defined by

their luck. But I also understand some of the critics: Why would I need to look for a full-time job? Health insurance was my main concern while unemployed. Yet, what was I to do? I’m not one to turn down free. I received a card in the mail and it sat in my wallet. I decided that I would only use it for emergencies‌ But, then again, my ankle still hurt from when I twisted it in beer-league volleyball months prior. Plus, my teeth could surely use a cleaning. Seems like my brain could always use a scan. Before any schemes could
bear fruition, I signed on to my current job, and with it came the perks of health care. That leads to the crux of my current quandary: I’ve tried multiple times to cancel my Apple Care plan, but have been unable to do so. As far as I can tell, there is no “let me out� option online. I’ve called multiple phone numbers three or four times and sent an email asking to help me cancel, but, as far as I know, I’m still being covered. It seems as though they don’t want me to leave. And, like every customer service nightmare, the calls to cancel are so frustrating. It’s a transfer from

Auburn named Playful City USA for the sixth consecutive year FOR THE REPORTER
Auburn has been designated as a Playful City USA for the sixth consecutive year, one of only four cities in the state to earn the designation. KaBOOM! – in partnership with the Humana Foundation, announced 212 cities and towns throughout the United States as Playful City USA honorees. These communities are leaders in playability – the extent to which a city makes it easy for kids to get balanced and active play – and are making play part of the solution that can move the needle on countless urban challenges. KaBOOM! selected Auburn for its outstanding dedication to play. Auburn recently completed a volunteer-built playground at Indian Tom Park, added new soft surfacing at Rotary Spray Playground, and will coordinate the fourth year of a free summer drop-in play program at Olympic
Middle School. “We plan to continue to work with the community to create opportunities and spaces for play to ensure that Auburn remains ‘More Fun Than You Imagined,’” said Daryl Faber, Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation director. As part of the KaBOOM! Playful City USA program, the City has been the recipient of a variety of grants, including: a $15,000 grant to install outdoor fitness equipment at Game Farm Park; a $50,000 grant to build the new playground at Brannan Park in 2013; a $20,000 grant to help build the new playground at Lea Hill Park in 2013; and a $20,000 to help fund the playground at Game Farm Park in 2011. The KaBOOM! Playful City USA program, sponsored by the Humana Foundation, honors cities, towns and communities across America that are taking bold steps to ensure that all children have easy access
to balanced and active play in their communities. Cities being recognized span every region of the country, and include: Auburn; Washington, D.C.; Chicago; Nashville, Tenn.; Austin, Texas; Providence, R.I.; San Francisco; and New York City. “With the tremendous support of our friends at Humana Foundation, we are thrilled to recognize all of these communities that are working to ensure all kids, particularly the 16 million that live in poverty, get the play they need to thrive,” said KaBOOM! CEO and founder Darell Hammond. To learn more, visit www. playfulcityusa.org.

BRIEFS
Trio cooks up a winning taste The Auburn Riverside Culinary Arts team won first place in the annual Western Region Black Box Culinary Arts competition at Renton Technical College on May 10. Seniors Diana Grishchenko, Breanna Henley and Tristen Tracy were the winning team. The competition was a “mystery basket.” Students did not know what ingredients they would have to prepare their dishes, and they did not bring their own recipes. With the ingredients provided, the students prepared an appetizer of sesame crusted seared Ahi tuna atop a spring greens salad with a grapefruit and passion fruit vinaigrette.

Hydroplane enthusiasts got the chance to see one of the sport’s most storied boats for free during the Hydroplane & Raceboat Museum’s Hydro Fever open house last weekend. The boat, known to
the hydroplane community as the “Blue Blaster,” a nickname for sponsor Atlas Van Lines, is close to being restored after more than four years of work. As the pride and joy of the Kent museum, it is set to run at Seafair this summer. But there have been mixed emotions about see-

ing the boat on the water again after Bill Muncey’s 1981 accident in Acapulco, Mexico. The legendary driver was killed during his final competition at a world championship race when he lost control of his boat. “It was such a traumatic event when (Muncey) was killed, and it’s such a touchy, emotional subject,” said Don Mock, a volunteer who has been with the museum since its beginning in 1984 and has been working on a crew to restore the boat. “A lot of people felt the boat should never run again, (that) it should be sort of a tribute or a shrine (and that) it should never touch the water,” Mock said. Muncey left behind a family, including son Will Muncey, who was at the event promoting a book he wrote about his father’s life. As a Muncey he too was a hydroplane driver. Four generations of his family were involved in hydroplane racing, whether as drivers or as crew members. “If you go back to like the ’50s and ’60s, especially the ’50s, we didn’t have the Seahawks,” Muncey said. “In the ’50s, we didn’t even have any kind of major league sports. This was the only thing we had that was truly, legitimately, major league.” Many members of the hydroplane community who feel this way about the sport were also at the event, among them volunteers who have worked at the museum for years. “We would go down to the lake every Monday through Friday, pack a picnic lunch, a blanket and go out and sit on the beach and watch (the boats) go round and round the lake,” said volunteer Carolyn Graham, who grew up watching the sport. But every time the old days of racing were brought up, Muncey’s name and memories of his boat seemed to find their way into the conversation. Graham described him as the name in Seattle, a racer everyone thought was wonderful. “A lot of people have ties to this racing activity, so I think that (will) be a very good thing to see that boat on the water,” Muncey said.

The Auburn Riverside and Auburn Mountainview girls water polo teams placed at this past weekend’s Washington State High School Girls Water Polo Championships at the Curtis Aquatic Center.

Auburn Mountainview’s Viktoriya Vasina wasn’t pleased with her performances in the long and triple jumps last season. After more than six years – three of them on the Lions’ varsity track and field team – competing and steadily refining her skills in the jumps, Vasina thought she might qualify for state last spring. She didn’t. At last season’s district meet, Vasina finished a disappointing 10th in the long jump with a leap of 15 feet, 2 1/2 inches. Her season ended in the district triple jump with a mark of 32-11 1/4. For her senior year, Vasina wanted to make more than just an appearance at the league or district meet. She had her sights set on state glory. And to improve and reach that goal, she turned to a local club team, the Flying AJs, after her junior track season. “It was my last year and I had a lot to prove. I wanted to make it to state in an individual event,” Vasina said. “It was pretty important. I wanted to do something more in track and go to college.” Her work paid off at the West Central District III/Southwest District 4 meet last weekend. Vasina qualified for the 3A state Horses

Ravens’ Turner, Williams on to state 4A meet Auburn Riverside’s Joshua Turner and Brittni Williams earned berths in next week’s state 4A track and field championships with their performances at Saturday’s district meet at French Field in Kent. Turner, a senior, punched his ticket to state with a second-place finish in the 100-meter hurdles. Turner finished with a 14.91-second
[ TRACK from page 18 ] Vasina – the school’s triple jump record-holder (35-1 1/2) who will compete in track and play soccer at Central Washington University next season – admits she’s pleased by her individual performance this season. But what she values most is

Coming into the season, one of the things Vasina was looking forward to most was getting a chance to compete at state with Carter and the rest of the 400 team.
