Spiced-up farmers market returns Sunday BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
It boasts more than 40 vendors, from restaurant-based concession stands steeped in home-cooked flavor to stands offering a variety of fresh, locally grown, farm-based foods and hand-made items. What is it? Why, it’s the Auburn International Farmers Market, of course. And at 10 a.m. Sunday, the market pitches boldly into
its sixth year, in the Auburn Sound Transit Plaza at 23 A St. SW. In coordination with the City of Auburn, this year’s market fairly bursts with good stuff, like free performances, chef demonstrations with farm-fresh ingredients, kids activities, and classes on health, nutrition and gardening. And the fun includes another appearance by local [ more MARKET page 3 ]

Auburn planners say Lea Hill residents Shao Xia Zhu and her husband, Gary Kiefer, should be permitted to lodge up to seven unrelated people in each of the two single-family homes they own in the Rainier Ridge subdivision just north of Green River Community College. But neighbors say anything more than four unrelated people – here, college students – in a communal housing situation would run contrary to what they worked with Galmish City leaders for months to achieve, and what City leaders signed off on when they approved the ordinance last September. At the Zhu-Kiefer hearings at Auburn City Hall on May 28, a room full of riled residents rated the City a fail on its handing of the first applications that have ever been subject to the new rules. “We have worked for two, three years with the City,” said Hank Galmish, an English teacher at GRCC for 25 years, [ more HOUSING page 8 ]

City approves telecommunications network deal BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
The Auburn City Council on Monday granted TW Telecom of Washington LLC a franchise agreement that will allow it to build and operate a telecommunications network within the City’s rights of way. Upon completion of the project, company leaders have said, they will offer integrated data services, dedicated Internet access and provide local and long distance voice services to their commercial
customers. The proposed franchise area encompasses all rights of way in the City, as TW Telecom will lease facilities from CenturyLink and other telecom companies throughout the City to provide service. The company asked for the entire City to be its franchise area so that future installation of its facilities may be accommodated without having to amend the agreement for each installation. The City code requires such a franchise of any commercial utility, telecommunications operator,
[ MARKET from page 1 ] garden guru Ciscoe Morris on June 15. “I’m authentically jazzed, I’m all pumped up,” said City Councilman Bill Peloza, the City’s driving market force from the beginning. Here’s the buzz on the 2014 market: “We have two bakeries coming this year for the first time, making bread and all the sweets and donuts,” Peloza said. “Oh, and one of the bakeries will have large donuts for four. They specialize in large donuts. One of state Sen. Joe Fain’s reasons for coming to the market was mini donuts. So I told him, ‘You’re going to have to buy a large donut for four, and share it with your wife.’” About 45 vendors are expected on opening day, about on par, Peloza said, with the market’s
first year. “In our two-year market planning process, we said that it would take five years to really get the market established. And now that we’re in the sixth year, we can say we’re a reputable farmer’s market in South King County,” Peloza said. “I want to put in a good word for market manager Joanne McNabb, who has applied lots of her business ability to making the market what it is today,” Peloza said. Want to get involved with the market? Well, there are always lots of volunteer opportunities. To volunteer, just fill out the online registration form at www.auburnwa.gov, or call the market at 253-266-2726. The market operates from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., June 8 to Sept. 21.

West Valley Highway North when an Auburn officer saw it passing in a no-passing zone. Once the car passed the officer, the officer made a U-turn, and when the driver allegedly saw this, he sped up. The officer at first tried to catch up, but quickly abandoned the pursuit out of safety concerns to the public, according to Auburn Police Commander Mike Hirman. The officer looked for the suspect vehicle, and after a few minutes found the car upside-down in a deep ditch. Gregory’s two passengers had already left the car on their own, but Gregory was still seat-belted in, unconscious and under water. The officer got Gregory out and performed CPR on him until medics could get there. Firefighters treated the occupants at the scene, and transported the woman to MultiCare Auburn Medical Center. Her condition and name have not been released. VRFA water rescue technicians searched the vehicle and found no other occupants.

For most folks, June brings happy flowers and joyful thoughts of warm days to come. Not for me. My joyful June meant my personal tyrant will return to rule over my roost. My daughter, Katy, is going on a vacation, which means I get the joy of taking care of Yodie the Yorkie despot. Yodie has never grasped the concept that she is the dog and I am higher on the evolutionary scale from dopey to smarty pants. When I read Darwin’s, “On the Origin of Species”, I distinctly remember a chapter that said I get to be the boss of Yodie because I am supposed to be smarter. Every time Yodie comes to terrorize me for a week or two, the first thing I do is show her Darwin’s book, multiple times. She apparently doesn’t read very well. Normally after I show her the book, I have to pick her up and place her on the bed, get her a treat and tell her she is the princess of the house and boss of me. Beginning next week, the morning routine starts with Yodie jumping up and down my chest giving me the, “Wake up. I am the cutest thing in the universe. Worship me” look. If I don’t get up immediately, she stands on my chest and gives me the Yorkie death stare. Taking Yodie for a walk is a real treat. We will get about halfway around the block before she flops onto the sidewalk, rolls onto her back and plays dead with her limp paws. I have to pick her up and carry her home, which is a trial for me since that is almost like exercise. When she was a puppy, I had her all trained to shake hands and do normal dog stuff. Since she has been living with Katy, the dopey little she-devil thinks she is in charge of my life when Katy isn’t available to boss me around. [ more BOX page 6 ]

Blame VA’s administrators, managers for mess There’s one word to describe the escalating Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) scandal: abhorrent. As the days go by, the “secret list” keeps getting longer and longer as more VA hospitals throughout the country are being found out for possessing this “secret list.” As we all know, the VA hospital in Phoenix, Ariz., has been the center of this “secret list” controversy. A whistleblower, a retired doctor who used to work at that hospital for several years, divulged in an interview with CNN about a coverup created by managers to hide the fact that more than 1,400 veterans were forced to wait many months to see a doctor, and 40 died while waiting for their medical appointments.

transported. Community leaders, emergency responders and some politicians say that’s the information they really need to be prepared for a derailment, spill or other type of accident. They’re aware of oil train derailments in Virginia in April, in Alabama in November, and in Quebec last July, where 47 people died. They know the chances of an
country and the noisy clamor of Congressmen on both sides of the aisle for the head of Mr. Shinseki. I like Mr. Shinseki. He’s a retired Army four-star general and a Vietnam veteran who was severely injured during his combat tour there. He’s a good man, a brave man, who laid his life on the line for this country. He’s an American hero. I don’t think he was at fault for this abhorrent secret list. Surely, he didn’t know of the existence of this secret list until its divulgement. I think the people at fault were those administrators and managers at VA hospitals who were aware of this secret waiting list, yet filed their reports to the VA secretary, saying that everything within their area of responsibility was fine and dandy and that veterans under their care were well taken care of. They did this to receive their bonuses. And that’s truly abhorrent. [ more LETTERS page 6 ]

The state Department of Ecology estimates it went from zero barrels in 2011 to nearly 17 million barrels – roughly 714 million gallons – in 2013.

Animal control is out of control When are the people in Washington state going to wake up?
www.auburn-reporter.com Animal control is so far behind in common sense. They want to go into your pet’s private records to cross reference and see if you’ve purchased a license for your animal by seeing if your animal has had a rabies shot. People are going to resist by not vaccinating their animals. Another example is when I wanted to be a responsible pet owner and purchase a license for my new pup. A normal fee would be $30 if your animal was spay or neutered. They want to extort $60 from me if she is not spayed. You must show them your animal’s record or you pay the higher price.

We have been asking for more information,” said Brad Reading, assistant chief of Snohomish County Fire District 1 and chairman of the countywide Special Operations Policy Board, which handles planning for hazardous materials incidents. “This is certainly a step forward.” The rules, which kick in June 6 and apply to all 50 states, cover only shipments of at least 1 million gallons of Bakken crude. That sounds like a lot, until you consider that one tank car holds about 30,000 gallons of crude oil, and oil trains commonly have 100 or more cars hitched together. Railroads must give the State Emergency Response Commission an estimate of how many trains will run through each county each week. The commission will notify the counties.
being penalized for other peoples’ poor judgments. Whatever became of innocent until proven guilty? This is why they only have 25 percent of the people registering their animals. I am in the system now, so I will probably have to pay the ransom. If I get another dog down the road, I will not get a license. Once you’re in the government system, you are a piece of meat, and they are the leeches. It should be one fee. Penalize the people who are irresponsible. The government doesn’t work for us. We work for the government. They used to call that slavery when you worked for the man. Now they call it taxes or usage fees. – Daniel Van Devender
After railroads provide the information next week, they won’t need to contact the state again, unless the number of trains carrying Bakken oil increases or decreases by 25 percent or more. Refiners and railroads aren’t enamored with the notification directive. They worry it could increase the risk of sabotage and encourage daring activists to try to block trains through protests. They’d prefer not to see the information publicized. State emergency management officials plan to post it online, but on Tuesday were checking to find out if they are barred from doing so. And the federal rules don’t deal with the safety of the rail cars in which the Bakken is shipped. That’s a separate conversation going on in Washington, D.C. where the Obama Administration and lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are likely to impose
Let’s create a viable transportation network I noticed an article about Gov. Jay Inslee and the need for a transportation package. This is not a partisan issue. However, Jay Inslee has made it a partisan issue, adding 20 to 40 cents a gallon to the price of gasoline by adding ethanol, when the people of this state object to even a 10-cents-a-gallon gas tax for transportation. These are issues the public is rightly concerned about because it affects their personal bottom line. I am willing to talk about transportation, if all the reasons
tougher standards for rail car construction. Sen. Doug Ericksen, R-Ferndale, chairman of the Senate Energy, Environment & Telecommunications committee, said the new notification rule is “a piece of the puzzle”, but tank car safety is critically important and needs addressing sooner than later. He’s planning to hold a public hearing on oil trains June 17 in Spokane. “State lawmakers must continue to pressure the federal government to take stronger action,” he said when the order came out May 7. “It is what communities throughout Washington deserve and what we didn’t get from our federal leaders today.” Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog, The Petri Dish, is at www.heraldnet.com.

Yes, we need a viable transportation network. How could President Eisenhower construct the interstate highway system in a short period of time in the 1950s, yet it takes more than a year to construct a bypass (Route 18 and I-5) in the 2010s? There has to be a better way than, pardon the analogy, the road we are on.

KidsDay returns to Les Gove Park on June 20
Recess Monkey – an acclaimed children’s music band from Seattle – performs at KidsDay this year.
FOR THE REPORTER
Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation gears up for its annual KidsDay event on Friday, June 20 at Les Gove Park, 1005 12th St. SE. The event, which runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., features a variety of inflatable rides, children’s activities, live stage entertainment, mini golf, kids’ arts and craft booths, food concessions, more than 80 information/activity vendors and a food court. Back again are the popular electric Go-Karts, free face painting and a heavy equipment/ vehicle display. KidsDay’s primary audience is children ages 3-10 years of age; however, there are lots of activ-

At a workshop this week, the City Council moved a resolution to Monday’s council meeting, where it will vote on whether to apply for a grant from the King County Flood District Flood Reduction Fund. “King County has made available a contingency fund, money that is available with these projects,” Mayor Leanne Guier said. “I don’t know if you want to call them incidental, but we’re going to need to open and close the park and make it available for citizens. And that is a cost. So, this is a grant we’re applying for to open and close the park until the levees (along the White River) are completed, so it’s not a cost to the City.” This year King County

The Outlet Collection | Seattle announces store openings FOR THE REPORTER
The Outlet Collection | Seattle recently announced that fashion retailers American Eagle Outfitters, Crocs, Guess Factory Store, Adidas, Torrid, and Charlotte Russe will be added to the Auburn mall. According to The Outlet Collection, the timing of each opening will vary by store. The first opening is American Eagle Outfitters on June 18 and the last opening should be this fall. Together, these brands will represent more than 32,000 square feet of new retail in the center, complementing The Outlet Collection’s recent additions of Lids, Sunglass Hut, Coach Factory Outlet, Nike Factory Store, Michael Kors, J.Crew Factory Store, Brooks Brothers, Skechers, LOFT Outlet, Chico’s

Pacific Bike Rodeo returns The annual Pacific Bike Rodeo is Saturday, June 14 at Alpac Elementary School, 310 Milwaukee Blvd. N., Pacific. The free event for families and children, presented by the Pacific Police Department, runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. There will be a bicycle obstacle course, a barbecue, helmet fittings assisted by the Valley Regional Fire Authority, and a bike auction. Elsewhere, Pacific Police will auction more than 25 bikes at the July 12 Pacific Days celebration. The bikes were either stolen, lost or recovered during the past year. The auction is from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Sales are cash only.
picked up the $40,000 tab to remove the HESCO wall, composed of deployable rock-and dirt-filled mesh containers. Guier said the cost to reinstall HESCOs will cost even more. If the vote is yes, the City will submit a grant application to the county. “And, if we’re lucky, it will get approved,” Guier said. “It’s not guaranteed.” The HESCO barriers are to remain in place at the

park until the county finishes beefing up the levees. The job should be completed in five years. “It’s not very pretty, having that second wall there. I don’t like it,” Guier said. “But I don’t like the loss of property and lives even more. The fact that we’re all working together to make (the park) available to the citizens is a good thing.”
The Council votes Monday on an agreement with Pierce County to provide maintenance work on Pacific streets. The $10,000 annual contract would allow the county to re-stripe several roads in Pacific, including Ellingson Road, Milwaukee Boulevard, and Butte and Pacific avenues. All told, nine miles would be painted. The contract, which would be in effect until Dec. 31, 2019, according to Resolution 2014-18, would also task the county with maintenance on street lighting, traffic signs, roadway markings, raised pavement markings and minor engineering projects. According to Guier, it would be cheaper to make the agreement with Pierce County, than contract with a contract company to paint the stripes. Guier said the City would contract with Apply-A-Stripe to paint crosswalk and stop lines on the roads this summer. The council also will vote on an amendment to the 2014 budget, which would fund new positions in
Outlet and H&M. “Each of our new store openings has been requested by our customers. We’re proud to be able to provide our shoppers’ favorites and believe that’s the key to success in creating the ultimate outlet shopping destination,” said Chantelle Herburger, marketing director of The Outlet Collection | Seattle. The Outlet Collection first showcased its fully-renovated center to the region on Oct. 17. In addition to adding numerous designer fashion outlet brands and revitalizing more than 177,000 square feet of retail space, the center went through a full-scale renovation, including all new flooring, modern colors inside and out, new interior rails and light fixtures.

The council previously approved changing the job description of the public works community development director, splitting the position into two – a public works manager and a community development manager. A city administrator position and administrative office assistant job will be added, too, as will two seasonal maintenance worker jobs. A public hearing is at 6:30 p.m.

to buy up homes on Lea Hill and convert them into crowded student communal housing. “Two weeks ago, sitting in my office at GRCC, in comes a woman, and she says, ‘I hear you’re selling your house. I’ll give you cash, Don’t worry about fixing up a bit of it. I’ll give you cash because I can rent to students.’ I wouldn’t do that to my neighbors. … I don’t think Mr. Yao would like that, either,” Galmish said. “It’s real easy to sit in an office, read a bunch of regulations, and say it doesn’t damage the neighborhood because you don’t live there. “There’s a waiting list of people wanting to buy up houses in the neighborhood. If you grant this one, you are going to have a tidal wave. I’m not going to be living there, but I feel sorry for the people who are,” Galmish said. “The City just irritates me. You hide behind legalese, you say ‘no detriment to the neighborhood. We can’t deal with this. This isn’t our concern. That’s for politicians.’ Sorry I’m angry, but I am angry.” “This is not the way to keep a single-family neighborhood going,” said Robert Lutz a neighbor and a retired U.S. Marine Corps officer. “We have hopes of younger families moving in, These are starter-level homes in most cases by today’s standards. People come in and they want to raise their kids in a nice, quiet environment. They don’t want people drag racing between speed bumps. We don’t need that kind of thing. I hope that the powers that be will step back and consider their own neighborhood, not just what they see on paper here,” Judy Craig, who has lived in the neighborhood for 30
years, said she once housed students but gave up the program because students disobeyed the rules, for example, by coming in late and drunk. “It was too hard to handle these children,” Craig said. “If four works out for people, I think that’s fine. But seven, I think is, way too many, living all by themselves in a home with no guardianship at all.” Rainier Ridge resident Russ Campbell said his research had revealed that both of the houses take in annual receipts of anywhere between $63,000 and $84,000. “It’s a huge business. … What we have experienced is that these businesses have been flying under the radar for a long time. It wasn’t until I and a couple of other people went to the City to get things actually changed, that caused these businesses to have to come out in the open. No one recognized her business. We recognized it was happening and wanted it regulated. … When we allow this to happen, the floodgates will open, and if these two dominoes fall, there will be lots of them,” Campbell said. “We worked with the City an entire year. I sat at tables where councilmembers said, ‘How many, three, four, five? How many single adults should be allowed to live in a home.’ They debated it and came up with four. The very first thing that comes up, we have someone applying to put in seven. It wasn’t until last Friday I found out there was going to be a report recommending this. Recommending it on 50-square-feet of living space. That’s unbelievable,” Campbell said.

Brittni Williams, Maddie Taylor and Gavin Robertson led the way for Auburn schools at the state Class 3A and 4A track and field championships last weekend at Mount Tahoma Stadium in Tacoma. Taylor, an Auburn Mountainview senior, tied for second in the 3A high jump with a height of 5 feet, 4 inches. Kamiakin’s Andrea Stapleton won the title at 5-8. For Taylor – who will attend the University of Montana next year but hasn’t yet made up her mind about turning out for the Grizzlies track team – grabbing second was a pleasant surprise. “I wasn’t trying to look at placement,” Taylor said. “I was just trying to PR. My goal was not about placing. I said over and over in my head that I didn’t care about placing, I just wanted 5-4 or over.” Taylor – who placed eighth in the high jump at state last season – said her mindset is the key to her success. “Just being there, I really enjoyed it more this time,” Taylor said. “Last year, I just put too much pressure on myself. This year, I concentrated on having fun while I was doing it.” For the Auburn Mountainview boys, Robertson, a

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.
