Plateau neighbors learn the ‘bear’ facts of living near forest When residents of the Overdale Park area of Issaquah held a recent meeting/block party, they expected a good crowd. What they didn't expect was a visit by a black bear. "He actually went walking down the side of my house," said resident Julie DelMissier, who quickly got about 20 children into the safety of her house as 30-40 parents "came flying over to make sure their kids were safe." DelMissier has seen the same bear about four times in the past week, wandering through side yards and backyards and foraging in garbage containers for food. Several days earlier, DelMissier was having a picnic on her front lawn with neighbor, Ingrid Abdelnour, when Abdelnour's two-year-old son pointed in the air and said "dragonfly, dragonfly." DelMissier's sevenyear-old daughter then chimed in, but with "bear, bear!" "I thought she was joking," DelMissier said, "but I looked over and saw a very shiny black furry bear walking down my driveway. I said as calmly as I could, 'everyone walk to my front door and get inside.'" DelMissier, a photographer, then quickly grabbed a camera and took off on foot after the bear. She was about 30 feet away when the took the photo of the bear by the garbage can.

"Then I got a little scared when he stood up and looked at me, so I slowly walked back inside." Seeing wildlife is a normal occurrence in the area, DelMissier said, noting that her home has floor-to-ceiling windows. About two weeks ago, her son, Tripp, said, "Uh Mom…..there is a bear at the front door." The bear – different and larger than the one at the homeowners' meeting – eventually left, heading down Black Nugget Road.
Costco planning big expansion in Issaquah BY LINDA BALL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
It’s pretty clear that Costco is here to stay in Issaquah. Costco has been working with city staff to add 1.5 million square feet – most likely office space – to its complex. According to Keith Niven, the city’s economic development director, 1.25 million square feet will be office and the additional .25 million square feet could be additional retail, perhaps even a car wash. The current warehouse/store is approximately 150,000 square feet. The Pickering Place area is zoned urban core, which would allow residential use, most likely apartment or condominiums. However, it’s too soon to know if Costco will choose to build any residential properties. The development agreement, which the city hopes to have zipped up by September, will be for 30 years. Under the Central Issaquah Plan, Costco could decide to build over four stories by paying $1.25 million into the city’s density bonus pot. Code will allow a building as high as 125-feet; 85-feet would be about twice the height of Costco’s current office height. Niven said Costco is also willing to pay $23.75 million for road improvements to get its 1.5 million square feet. Costco will leave seven to eight acres of open space on the east side of Issaquah Creek.

With legal marijuana retailers opening in Washington this week, it won’t be long until Issaquah has a shop of its own. The passage of I-502 in November 2012 prohibits public consumption of marijuana, as well as driving when under the influence of cannabis. The initiative also set the limit at five nanograms of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC - the active ingredient in marijuana) per liter of whole blood for DUI, and Issaquah will follow suit. In addition, the Issaquah City Council has adopted the city code to include an open container law. Just like with alcohol, if you’re in your vehicle, with a container that has been opened, i.e. the seal is broken and contents partially removed, you’re breaking the law. The penalty for an open container of marijuana, or drug paraphernalia in the vehicle, unless it’s in the trunk, will be up to $250. As far as consuming marijuana in public view, the council set the penalty at up to $103. But it’s unclear what is public view – for example, if you’re on your front porch. “(There is) ambiguity on open sight, because you could be on your own property, and still be in the line of sight,” said council President Paul Winterstein. No word yet on when Issaquah’s first retail store will open. Linda Ball:

As part of the North Issaquah transportation improvements, Costco will commit to 48 percent of $50 million. Sheldon Lynne, the city’s public works engineering director said with grants received or in process, it could bring Issaquah’s cost of the improvements to zero. Overruns up to $50 million would be split 50/50 between Costco. The city’s development commission will look at the entire land plan, showing buildings, plazas and parking before anything is
approved. The environmental impact study already completed for the Central Issaquah Plan should speed up the a state environmental policy act review. Councilmember Stacy Goodman said she was impressed that Costco wants to make this sort of long-term commitment to Issaquah. Councilmember Nina Milligan was happy to see Costco “lay down roots here.” Linda Ball: 425-391-0363; lball@issaquahreporter.com

Sewer line break closes Issaquah McDonald’s BY LINDA BALL
ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
McDonald’s of Issaquah at 1305 N.W. Gilman Blvd. was closed down Monday, July 7, after raw sewage backed up into the kitchen. Derek Morrison, a franchise spokesman for McDonald’s in western Washington, said a main sewer line collapsed. “It’s just an unfortunate incident,” he said. “It could happen in front of your house or mine.” A spokesperson for the King County Public Health Department
said this also happened in 2007, but the restaurant was under different ownership. The restaurant is owned by Sammamish businessman Alan Finkelstein. His company, Casel Enterprises, Inc. also owns McDonald’s restaurants in Kent, Maple Valley and Sammamish. Finkelstein also is the president of the Sammamish Chamber of Commerce. Morrison said the safety of the customers comes first, and that this has been a headache and heartache for Finkelstein. Morrison said Finkelstein has never had one of his restaurants
closed before. Deborah Sogge, the executive director of the Sammamish Chamber said Finkelstein is a wonderful chamber president. “This has nothing to do with his food or cleanliness, it’s an outside infrastructure issue,” Sogge said. The Health Department said Finkelstein will meet with them to explain his response and any procedures he has to prevent this from happening again. “It will be open when it’s best for the public — and Alan, the city, and the county health department are satisfied with the fix,” Morrison said.

Sammamish adopts master plan for Big Rock Park BY KELLY MONTGOMERY
ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
After two and a half years of planning, the Sammamish City Council voted Tuesday night to adopt the Big Rock Master Plan, but with amendments. In 2012, Mary Piggott agreed to donate the 51-acres to the city in order to create a passive, community park. The city owns a portion of the park – site A – and hopes to own site B in the next couple of years. Piggott lives in site C and plans to live there for some time, but that site also will belong to the city at some point in the future. Jessi Bon, director of parks and recreation, said that since the land was donated, the Planning Commission has taken into consideration Piggott's vision for the park, the community's input and council recommendations – a task that is easier said than done. The current existing conditions and particular areas of interest include the park's proximity to neighbors, sensitive areas, the trail system that exists on the land, parking and access, wetlands and streams, steep slopes, meadows and more. "All of this factored into our proposed master plan," Bon said. The final plan included a natural play area, an elevated boardwalk and a community garden. However, not all council members were in support of the proposed aspects. The natural play area had previously been taken out of the Master Plan, but put back in with the hopes of creating a place for structured and unstructured play and learning, as well as opportunities for community and volunteer involvement. It is estimated to cost $100,000 and was approved by the council in a 5-2 vote. Councilmember Kathy Huckabay said that in today's world children don't have the opportunity to have imaginative play, which is why she's in complete support of the play area.
Dissenting were councilmembers Tom Odell and Ramiro Valderrama, who said it does not go with the vision of the park. "I don't think this is a natural play area," Valderrama said. "I know Mary's (Piggott) kids grew up here and they didn't have a 'natural play area.'" The elevated boardwalk also was questioned by council members, which would cost $525,000. Valderrama said the point of creating a passive park is to avoid wetlands, not to go through them. "With a half a million dollars, I think we can do a lot more with our money," he said. Huckabay disagreed, stating that she thinks the wetland would be better protected with the boardwalk in place. It also would provide educational opportunities for children, she said. Councilmember Nancy Whitten had concerns both environmentally and financially, but suggested including it as a potential feature that could be decided upon at a later date. In a vote of 5-2, the council voted the boardwalk out. However, following the resolution adoption, the council made an amendment to the language of the Master Plan, stating that, "When site B transfers to the city, ADA alternatives will be evaluated: the elevated boardwalk and/or the extended trail connectivity to the Southeast corner of site A." All council members were in favor of this amendment, so the city will reevaluate the option to install an elevated boardwalk and/or a grated trail system once the city acquires site B. Kellye Hilde, parks project manager, said the budget will continue to reflect plans for an elevated boardwalk, but will decrease if the grated trail is chosen instead since that option is significantly less. Other issues the council had included the idea of community garden and the size of the parking lot in site B. With a sudden

Summer’s not a joyous time for kids with empty stomach
I
t’s summertime, and, as the song says, the livn’ is easy. But that’s not necessarily the case for needy school children on summer break. Several problems face kids and families who are less fortunate. If children get free or reduced-cost meals during the school year, summer can be three months of an empty stomach. If parents couldn’t afford healthy breakfast or lunch when school is in session, they certainly can’t now. Also, summer is hardly the time most people’s thoughts turn to giving and helping. Instead, were conditioned to think of lending a hand during the winter and especially in the holiday season. But that won’t sooth a three-year-old crying because of empty stomach. Fortunately, something will. Area food banks and social service agencies understand the problem and work hard in the summer to support needy families. The Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank has a list of food items that are particularly needed for kids and families in the summer. The list is surprisingly easy for anyone to fill: ■ Canned chicken ■ Tuna ■ Canned salmon ■ Produce / fruit ■ Eggs ■ Jelly ■ Fresh produce ■ Baby Formula ■ Milk ■ Dehydrated pinto beans ■ Summer Lunch Program Food (granola bars, fruit cups, raisins, dried fruit, crackers). All together, the items would hardly fill a grocery sack. But they will fill a empty stomach. You can drop off donations from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday at the agency, 179 First Ave. S.E. – Craig Groshart, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

Eyeman effort gets a ‘no’
R
arely can the lack of action trigger so much reaction as it did last week when Tim Eyman didn’t do something he so often does — turn in signatures for an initiative. Word the professional initiative promoter from Mukilteo failed to qualify his latest anti-tax concoction for the November ballot ignited an outburst online of those in the Puget Sound’s political punditry. That’s because it’s been a few years since Eyman came up empty in his attempt to legislate through the ballot box. His critics wistJerry Cornfield fully hope it is a sign of failures to come and an omen of his eventual exit from Washington’s main stage of politics. Without question, Eyman has lost his bling and his brand of self-centered politics dressed up as populism no longer gives voice to public angst and anger as it once did. But one setback isn’t likely to neuter Eyman’s influence — real and perceived — on the electorate or the electeds.
?
Question of the week:
“ Do you plan to vist one of the new pot stores now that they are opening?”
There are reasons for this year’s dud effort. He had a poorly conceived measure and he never rebuilt the bridge to business supporters he blew up last year. This year’s offering, officially known as Initiative 1325, required lawmakers to endorse a constitutional amendment requiring tax increases be approved by a two-thirds majority and then to put it on the ballot for voters to ratify. If they didn’t, the state sales tax would be slashed from 6.5 percent to 5.5 percent. That’s a pretty complicated sell for someone with a clipboard standing outside a supermarket trying to get signatures. And he didn’t have many of those because the usual flow of dollars to pay for them from wealthy individuals, small businesses or major corporations dried up. Eyman’s customary allies hadn’t forgiven him for 2013 when they believe he used some of their donations to push a measure they opposed. Without that financial aid to hire professional petitioners, Eyman and his reputed “thousands of supporters” were on their own to get it done. And they didn’t. SEE CORNFIELD, 5

Need some joy in your life? Go help with a bouncy house. My wife, Deb, and I were lucky enough to be asked by a Sammamish friend to help monitor the kids using a bouncy house at the city of Sammamish's Fourth on the Plateau. I say fortunate because it turned out to be a wonderful blessing for us. For two hours we got to watch an endless parade of smiling faces and hear nothing but joyful laughter. We've decided it's impossible to not have fun in a bouncy house, and just as impossible to not have fun helping. So thank you to the city of Sammamish and thank you to the Sammamish friend.

Issaquah History Museum to feature talk about steam engines
The Issaquah Depot Museum's summer history program, "Steam Engine Stories" with Jack Christensen, will be presented from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, July 12, at the Issaquah Depot Museum, 165 S.E. Andrews Street. Christensen, a former steam and diesel train engineer, will share tales of working the rail line through Issaquah to Snoqualmie. Now a railroad artist and watercolorist, Christensen started his railroad career in 1942 at age 16 as an engine wiper for the North Pacific Railway. He worked as a supply boy, crew caller, hostler helper, fire cleaner and occasionally a fireman on switch engines during his high school years.
After the war, Christensen attended Washington State University and then transferred to the University of Washington. He went to school during the day, while returning to engine service at night, again for the North Pacific. When he graduated he took a ninemonth leave of absence from the railway to work for the United States Geological Survey in Washington D.C., before returning to the North Pacific as an engineer in 1955. The program is free and sponsored by 4Culture and the city of Issaquah sustaining funds. More information is available at the Issaquah History Museums office, 425-3923500 or info@issaquahhistory.org.

level. He’s had success in fighting red-light cameras. There is no end to levies and taxes he could consider challenging on behalf of a citizenry which feels overtaxed. That requires Eyman to rethink his methods, and his motives. Pushing initiatives in cities around the state isn’t easier, and pays a whole lot less than what he’s been doing most of the past 15 years. If his “thousands of supporters throughout the state” are truly behind him, this may be their only way to ensure there isn’t another November without an Eyman measure on a ballot somewhere.

“We worked really hard, but our signature drive for the 2/3-For-Taxes Constitutional Amendment fell short this year,” Eyman wrote in an email to supporters, without acknowledging how many signatures were gathered. “We’ll just have to work even harder next time.” What “next time” looks like may determine whether Eyman effectuates a rebound to relevancy. If he wants to maintain a statewide profile, he’ll need to make amends with his old allies. Without their wallets and their wisdom, Eyman’s ability to continue earning regular paydays will be put at risk. Or Eyman could change course and focus on pushing ballot measures on the local

For arts-loving Eastsiders, having tickets to Teatro ZinZanni is a bit like Christmas-come-early. ZinZanni's latest offering, "When Sparks Fly" still has the same prepare-to-be-giddy quality, only it's a spooky Halloween scene (complete with Frankenstein and “Rocky Horror” touches) rather than Christmastime that comes to mind. Between the Broadway-caliber song-and-dance, the catwoman contortionist, and gourmet dinner, one would have to work very hard to resist the glittering powers of this seductive dream world. The production stars Ukrainian-born illusionist Maestro Voronin who manages to steal the show in an alluring display of smoke and mirrors without ever uttering a single word. This world-class magician, an original ZinZanni cast member, returns to Seattle for his 23rd performance with
the dinner-theater. Joining Voronin in the Belgian spiegletent is famed aerialist Dreya Weber. Celebrated for her work conceiving and choreographing pop-sensation P!nk’s buzz-worthy aerial performances at the 2010 and 2014 Grammy Awards ceremonies, she also contributed aerial support to the artist’s recent "The Truth About Love" tour. The cast also includes knock-out performances by ZinZanni staples, Duo Madrona on trapeze, Elena Gatilova, the delightful Joe De Paul, opera diva Kristin Clayton and contortionist puppet Svetlana. The five-course menu is another spectacular event in itself. "When Sparks Fly" plays through Sept. 21. Tickets start at around $100, which includes both dinner (vegetarian options available), as well as the show itself. Tickets and more information are at http://zinzanni.com/seattle/. Gabrielle Nomura is a freelance writer. She lives in Seattle.

Kids ‘n Pets parade on Front Street on the Fourth Kids and pets dressed in their patriotic best last Friday as Issaquah kicked off its Fourth of July celebration with a parade down Front Street. There were dignitaries at the start (Issaquah Mayor Fred Butler, photo top right), fire trucks from Eastside Fire and Rescue and a large fish on top of car to remind watchers that Salmon Days is coming in the fall. Kids along the parade route got candy treats tossed to them by numerous groups in the parade, making it like a Halloween bounty in the summer.

Issaquah School Districrt Supt. Ron Thiele congratulates student Thomas Rosario for his artwork. COURTESY PHOTO.
Kateri Brow Memorial School Art Collection welcomes student piece The Issaquah School District’s Kateri Brow Memorial School Art Collection welcomed another piece at the June 25 school board meeting. Superintendent Ron Thiele helped Thomas Rosario, a first-grader from Sunset Elementary, unveil his artwork, “The Bird.” In his artist’s statement, Rosario wrote, “The bird is a young bird, a baby – he hasn’t flown yet but he knows he can, he believes
he can. He is ready.” Each year the district purchases one or two pieces of artwork from the PTSA’s Reflections Art show. Thiele presented Thomas with a $50 check, which was made out in his name. The artwork will be displayed in the Issaquah School District’s Administration Building and will stay there for multiple years.
Lake Washington School District adjusts middle, high school activity fees
budget picture has improved somewhat, we wanted to bring our athletic fees closer to those in surrounding districts and reduce that burden on families.” The high school participation fee will be $200 per sport in 2014-15, a reduction of $75. No individual student will pay more than $400, no matter how many sports they play. The old cap per student was $550. No family will pay more than $725 in athletic participation fees to the same school, down from the previous cap of $1,000. The cost per sport in middle school will be $75, a reduction of $40. The maximum for an individual student will be $150, down from $210. The cap for fees for a family to the same school will be $225 at middle school, as opposed to $315 last year. Families who are unable to afford the fee can apply for a fee waiver. ASB fees, which had not been increased since 2006, rose by $5 at the middle school level, from $20 to $25. The cost at the high school level will be $50, up from $40. The exception is International Community School and Tesla STEM High School, where the ASB cost will be $30 since those schools do not have athletic programs.
Students in the Lake Washington School District will pay more for their Associated Student Body card, but less to participate in athletics following action by the school board June 23. Athletics fees rose in the 2009-2010 school year as part of budget cuts due to a loss of state funding during the recession. After a public process, parents and community members favored higher fees rather than teacher layoffs or cuts to classroom services. As a result, Lake Washington School District’s high school athletic participation fee of $275 per sport has been the highest in the area. “We appreciate that our community put its priority clearly on keeping resources in the classroom,” said Dr. Traci Pierce, superintendent. “Through these efforts, our district was one of the few that did not lay off teachers at that time.

Gunners give elite players local option for pro future on pitch BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
Jimmy Ball did not plan on becoming a soccer coach. The son of the English football legend Alan Ball Jr., a member of the 1966 national team that won the World Cup on home soil, Jimmy Ball was born into the game. He spent his youth around England’s most prized sons from that World Cup winning side, and took naturally to the game as a player. But when his own playing career finished after injuries, he was unsure where to turn. “I kind of accidentally fell into coaching,” he said. “Once I started, I loved it.” Ball was rehabilitating from an injury with a doctor in British Columbia when he stumbled upon a local youth game one afternoon. After taking in the standard, he noticed one youngster seemed to have far superior skill, and approached his parents about their son’s plans in the game and the possibility of training overseas. Ball’s own club at Manchester City said to work with the young man while finishing his rehab assignment, and bring him for a tryout in England when he returned. “Manchester City ended up signing Terry Dunfield to a contract,” Ball recalled, noting he has also since played in Major
League Soccer and on Canada’s Senior National team. “That’s how I started coaching.” When Ball took over as coaching director for Issaquah Soccer Club five years ago, he knew he wanted to create a program that offered kids in the area a place to play every level from recreational to the same professional development that gave him his start in the coaching ranks. This year, with the addition of their Gunners Premier Development League team and with Ball at the helm as head coach, the club has fulfilled that mission. “I think it’s fantastic for this area to have those two teams,” Ball said, also including the Women’s Professional Soccer League team fielded by the Gunners and now a reserve squad for the Seattle Reign FC. The Gunners PDL squad was previously known as the North Sound SeaWolves, before coming under the ISC umbrella this year and taking on the Gunners moniker. The addition of the professional development teams give the highest level youth players in Issaquah and Sammamish the chance to take a route similar to Sounders FC and United States Men’s National Team member DeAndre Yedlin, a Federal Way native and club player at Crossfire Premier. But for Ball, the most important thing is translating the passion for the game from
Sullivan leads local prep golfers at Ryan Moore event BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
Skyline’s Kelley Sullivan, a rising senior for the Spar-

week. Sullivan shot 72-77-66215, and was just six strokes off the pace after firing the lowest round of the tournament on the final day.
The Gunners club calls Lake Sammamish State Park home, and the men’s PDL team played a full slate of home games in Issaquah for the first time after joining ISC after time as the North Sound Sea Wolves. JOSH SUMAN, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter his own childhood to the next generation of Issaquah and Sammamish’s sporting youth. “I draw upon my experiences, upon my Issaquah’s Zack Overstreet, a rising junior, shot 77-74-67-218 to finish in a tie for 11th place. Michael Butler, a 2014 Skyline grad, shot 74-85-73-232 to end the tournament in a tie for 44th. Eastlake’s Ashley Fitzgibbons, a rising junior for the Wolves, finished in 11th place in the girls tournament. During the high school season, Sullivan finished in a tie for seventh at the 4A state tournament. Overstreet was part of a three-way tie for 10th, Fitzgibbons was sixth.

Former EC coach dies Chuck Tarbox, one of the area’s prep coaching legends and the former head football coach at Eastside Catholic, died at the age of 77 in Surprise, Ariz. Most known for helping Juanita turn into a KingCo power after years as a conference bottom feeder, Tarbox led the Crusaders during the days of the school’s Bellevue residency, from 1992-99. His time at EC was marked by a trip to the 1994 3A state semifinals, the school’s first and only trip to the final four of the Gridiron Classic until 2012. Juanita endured a 47-game losing streak before Tarbox arrived in Kirkland in the 1980s. But the Washington State Coaches Association Hall of Fame member turned the league on its ear, taking the Rebels from afterthought to nationally ranked prep power in short order and winning state titles in 1984 and 1985. He also spent time at Cleveland and Nathan Hale.

Eastlake Little League wins District 9 title BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
Eastlake is headed back to the state tournament in Little League baseball, after beating Kirkland American for the second straight day to claim the District 9 championship with a 7-2 victory. Eastlake, which reached the Little League World Series last season as the Pacific Northwest regional champions, won its first two games of the tournament over Bellevue East and Issaquah to reach the semifinals. But a loss to Kirkland American sent them to the loser’s bracket and brink of elimination. Eastlake came back to beat Bellevue West and keep its season alive, and won the first of two rematches with Kirkland American 6-3 to set Monday’s winner-take-all final. Elston Miller picked up the win on the mound for Eastlake in the title game, while Cooper Safon, The Eastlake Majors All-Star team, which captured the District 9 Garret Carney and Grady Robison each checked in baseball title.

Morimoto, an outfielder for the Eagles and 2014 graduate, was the lone selection for the Eagles and was honored as a First Team selection. Lunde, now at Washington State University playing
for coach Donnie Marbut, made the Second Team in Class 4A as a pitcher following his final prep season. Vorhof, the ace of a staff that carried the Wolves to the state tournament and

smile to myself and I’m sure he does too, wherever he is.” Ball has seen the progression of soccer’s popularity on the Eastside, and the evolution of the area’s soccer parents and fans, as well. He said he has placed an intense focus on process over results, building a brand of quality soccer and letting the individual accolades and successes follow. “When I first came here, one of the biggest things I tried to do is change the mentality of what good soccer looks like, and what we’re trying to achieve with these kids,” he said. “I think the generation of soccer parents are starting to become a lot more educated on what good soccer looks like. They are more understanding that winning is part of development.” The plan with the Gunners is to give top-level players from around the area a local path to the pros.

The club’s U15 girls team has trained with the WPSL squad, something Ball said provided a firsthand look at what the future could hold for top-level players. “We want them to get that hunger and desire,” he said. “They can get a taste of it and hopefully get enthused by it.” For more information about Issaquah Soccer Club’s youth programming, or the Gunners men’s and women’s development squads, visit them online at iscgunners. org.

Tiger Mountain High School could close Domestic Violence ISD looking at option for 2015-2016 school year Affects Us All BY KELLY MONTGOMERY conversations about Tiger Tiger Mountain is nota-
Last July, Sheila, 57, was killed by her husband. Brenda Lee, 48, was strangled by her fiancé. Amanda, 41, was killed by her fiancé days before her wedding. All three were victims of domestic violence. In 2013, 35 people in Washington – including three children – were killed as a result of domestic violence. Thousands more endure daily verbal, physical and sexual abuse. Domestic violence touches more people than you may realize including children and men. Some are able to break away from the destructive cycle, but too many often die trapped in it. Deciding to leave is one of the most risky and terrifying decision most victims will ever make. It’s a decision some victims will only get to make once. Imagine picking up the phone and making a call to someone you hope can provide a safe place to flee and being told there’s no room. That’s the reality for tens of thousands of victims every day.
ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
The Issaquah School District could close Tiger Mountain Community High School as early as 2015, following a proposal June 25 by school Superintendent Ron Thiele. The school will remain open for the 2014-15 school year. The public will have 90 days to comment on the issue. “Tonight’s analysis of this rationale is the beginning of a conversation,” Thiele said, noting the sensitivity that comes with a decision to close a school. “We want people to pay attention to this, we want input,” he said. Thiele said initial conversations were never based around closing Tiger Mountain, rather how the district can better serve those students who are most at risk to not graduate. “I came to a realization that at the very least, there was going to be a need for some really significant interventions, specifically related to our current alternative high school,” he said. Thiele began to feel uncomfortable having

That’s why supporting or-
ganizations like the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence is so important. They make sure victims have a safe place to turn and provide important prevention tools for teaching our sons and daughters how to develop healthy relationships, training ourselves to identify signs of abuse among our coworkers, friends and family, and helping abusers break the cycle. I’ve seen how much of a difference every dollar makes for groups like WSCADV. Their Refuse To Abuse 5k is an easy way to raise awareness and resources for an organization that provides a lifeline to thousands of families every year. If you can’t join the 5k, I encourage you to learn more about identifying the signs of DV and how to help.

Mountain in private without involving the school’s staff, so in January, he visited the alternative school to speak with them about the idea. “We’ve had a lot of input,” he said. “And some of that input has changed our thinking in how we move forward, so I think it’s been very valuable to us.” Thiele said that the rationale for closing Tiger Mountain includes system inequities and system ineffectiveness, citing the following statistics: • The average participation in free or reduced-price meals across the district’s other high school is just over 8 percent, while at Tiger Mountain it is more than 30 percent. • The percentage of students receiving Special Education services in the district’s other high schools averages to about 6.5 percent At Tiger Mountain, these students comprise more than 25 percent of enrollment. • The annual rate of referral to Tiger Mountain indicates comprehensive high schools lack resources and skills to effectively serve all students. • State assessment data at

bly lower than that of the comprehensive high schools. The most educationally challenged students at the district’s comprehensive high schools are meeting state standards at higher percentages than all students in Tiger Mountain. • Average daily attendance rates are 15-20 percent lower at Tiger Mountain than at the comprehensive high schools. • Tiger Mountain’s small learning community and other attributes should result in a high degree of individualized support to meet learning goals. However, the school’s four-year graduation rate is less than 40 percent and the five-year rate is less than 50 percent. Thiele proposed a threeyear process that would include enhancing support for students and limiting the enrollment for new Tiger Mountain students for 20142015, and then closing Tiger Mountain for the 2015-2016 school year while transitioning the remaining students and engaging the community in the design and development of a new high school, which would open in 2016. Lorraine Michelle, executive director of communications for the district, said there will be two public hearings in September, after which the school board can choose whether or not it wants to put the closure on the agenda. If it does, the board would vote on keeping the school open, or closing it. More information on the issue is available at www. issaquah.wednet.edu/ schools/TMCHSProposedClosure.aspx.

LWSD sees gain in revenues The Lake Washington School District has proposed a draft budget for the 201415 school year that includes an increase of 6.7 percent in revenues, rising from $256.3 million to $273.4 million in the general fund. That increase results in additional state revenue to fund basic education. The increase includes $5.3 million due to enrollment increases, $2.5 million in increased levy receipts, and $7.8 million in new state revenue. However, expenditures also increased by about 5.1 percent, including an additional $3.8 million for staff to meet the increased enrollment. Other costs are increases in staff compensation, health care and pension costs, along with money for specific programs from grants and self-supporting programs.

In the end, the district plans about $8.5 million in new expenditures. Highlights of the budget include staffing to provide training and professional learning for employees, an area that was heavily cut in 2009 when the state significantly reduced funding for schools. The additions include 10 professional learning coaches, who will work with teachers at all grade levels across the district. The additions are aimed at the district’s goal to recruit, hire and retain highly effective personnel. Other additions that focus on the goal area of safe and innovative learning environments include funding for five additional school nurses, two mental health/social workers, plus additional grounds and custodial staff and equipment. The board will hold a public hearing Aug, 4 where the public will have an opportunity to provide input to the board about the budget. The board vote on the budget following the hearing. Comments on the proposed budget may be emailed to board@lwsd.org.

King County has world’s highest survival rate for cardiac arrest Someone who has a cardiac arrest in King County has a greater chance of survival than anyone else in the world, according the latest analysis by county officials. The survival rate for cardiac arrest in King County hit an all-time high of 62 percent in 2013. By comparison, the cardiac survival rates in New York City, Chicago, and other urban areas have been recorded in the single digits. “People are alive today in King County who would not have survived in most other places in the country,” said King County Executive Dow Constantine. “Our system delivers rapid, high-quality critical care wherever you are.” King County’s success in saving lives is based in a coordinated, regional system where everyone — dispatchers, first responders, fire departments, law enforcement, paramedics, urgent care centers, and others — is guided by consistent medical direction and evidence-based practice. The cardiac survival rate in King County has dramatically risen over the past decade or so, from an above-average 27 percent in 2002 to 62 percent in 2013. Strategies that have contributed to the rise include: ■ Adoption of high-performance CPR method by emergency medical technicians to maximize oxygen circulation and increase survival chances. ■ Adoption of telecommunicator CPR, whereby 911 emergency personnel provide instant CPR instructions by phone. ■ Increasing public availability of automated external

The EMS/Medic One program since has become a model nationwide for delivery of lifesaving first-responder services.

espite the fact that people live longer and are more active in their later years, aging is still associated with decline, loss, and debilitation. That’s nature’s way, like it or not. But does that mean older folks should despair? Perhaps, but few actually do. In fact, feelings of happiness, or at least contentment, seem to be most common among the maturing crowd. A possibility may be that older people find it easier to derive pleasure from relatively ordinary experiences such as taking a walk, sharing a meal with loved ones, or pursuing a hobby. Another explanation may be a little bit more complex. In his milestone publication, “A Timi Gustafson Theory of Human Motivation” (1943), the psychologist Abraham Maslow introduced his now classic theory of “Hierarchy of Needs,” where he distinguished between a number of human needs, reaching from basic survival to self-actualization when nearly all human potential can be realized. Maslow used a graphic depicting the shape of a pyramid. More basic needs – like food, shelter, health, safety – support higher ones – like self-esteem, respect, creativity, etc. Higher needs cannot be met if there is significant deficiency among the more basic ones. Although he does not explicitly use the term, we can assume that Maslow would consider the quest for happiness as part of the higher needs. It is easy to see that this can only be achieved with time – in other words, with age. But the hierarchical structure of our needs is not static, but rather is made up of constantly changing priorities. That doesn’t mean everything is relative and therefore meaningless, not even when we look back from long distance. In my own life, I continuously revisit my needs in multiple departments to see if they are sufficiently attended to. That doesn’t mean I have no longer any ambitious goals to pursue or dreams to chase. But I also know how to take a break when the chase is over. And that has its rewards, too.

The project started after statistics showed a high percentage of DUI arrests in the city were of youth under age 21. All 15 businesses passed and Sammamish Police would like to recognize the the following businesses and their employees: Trader Joes, Bartell Drugs, Safeway, M.O.D. Pizza, Sammamish Highlands 76, Pine Lake Ale House, Ristorante Simone, Plateau Shell, Lanponi Thai, Jackson Shell, QFC, Rite Aid, La Casita, August Moon and Hungry Bear Market (Chevron).

July 1 When will they ever learn: An officer was flagged down in the 6100 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway Southeast in reference to hot dogs in a parked car. The officer observed two dogs inside. The temperature was 91 degrees and the dogs were panting. The owner was spoken to.

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves
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.
