No, it’s not a transfer station Poe building a warehouse; Algona is top choice for new facility
BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
For those who wonder what the construction activity going on at 28721 West Valley in north Auburn is all
about, at the very spot where King County had talked about building a transfer station site to replace the 50-year-old transfer station in Pacific. Well, for starters, it is not a
transfer station. Instead, Poe Construction of Auburn has pitched into building a warehouse distribution center for the [ more SITE page 7 ]

Auburn’s Planning Commission to air marijuana-related businesses at hearing BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
Get up and express your opinion or sit back and listen to where the City is at on recreational marijuana businesses inside city limits. At 7 p.m. Thursday, Auburn’s Planning Commission expects to review draft language amendments to the City Code that could regulate I-502 state licensed recreational marijuana uses in the city, and hold a public hearing in the Council Chambers of Auburn City Hall at 25 West Main St. People may submit questions
up until and at the hearing. It is all part of the City’s continued review of options respecting marijuana. On the heels of the success Heid of voter-passed I-502 two years ago this November, the City Council directed the Planning Commission to study the issue. When the initiative passed, City Attorney Dan Heid said Monday, no one knew how cities were going to address the issue, so Auburn and
other cities across the state imposed moratoriums to give their leaders time to study it. “That’s what our Planning Commission has been doing pretty diligently,” Heid said Monday. “What we ended up doing is identifying all the different options. The Planning Commission has narrowed its current approach – not to say it couldn’t change – down to two different strategies. One obvious strategy could be prohibition, like Yakima and a number of other jurisdictions have done. Another would be for the City to allow the state licensing scheme to oper-

As of Tuesday night, Roach had 7,151 votes or 40.1 percent of the total, Dahlquist was close behind with 6,991 votes, 39.2 percent, and Democrat Lynda Messner (Bonney Lake) was a distant third with 3,690 votes or 20.7 percent. In the contest for Legislative District 31 State Representative Position 1, Republican Drew Stokesbary was garnering 51.2 percent of the vote, Democrat Mike Sando had 32.06 percent and Jonathan Dunn, of the Independent Democratic Party, had 16.77 percent in the early returns, making it all but certain that Stokesbary and Sando will battle it out all the way to November.

Coal trains could cause an average 65 percent increase in traffic wait times at rail crossings with no benefit to local economies, according to a recently released economic impact study by the Puget Sound Regional Council. King County Executive Dow Constantine said the new study supports the unprecedented groundswell of opposition to coal train exports, by documenting the economic impacts of up to 18, mile-and-a-half long coal trains coming through the heart of communities in the Northwest. “It borders on madness to dig up a big chunk of North America, tie up traffic across the train route, and then ship off that coal to another country so they can bury us economically, and accelerate the decline of the global climate,” Constantine said in a county media release. “That is an economic model that creates very few jobs, even while hindering economic development and mobility here in central Puget Sound.”

Auburn man indicted for sex trafficking women STAFF REPORTS
A federal grand jury in Seattle has indicted a 33-year-old Auburn on four federal counts involving the sex trafficking of two female victims, U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan announced July 30. In June Bellevue Police arrested John Henry Cyprian Jr., aka “Lucky,” and booked him into state custody following their investigation into Cyprian’s sex trafficking of two different women, in Western Washington and in Portland, Ore. The grand jury indicted Cyprian on two counts of sex trafficking through force, fraud, and coercion and two counts of

transportation for the purpose of prostitution through coercion and enticement. After his transfer into federal custody in two weeks, Cyprian will be arraigned on the indictment. The charges in the indictment are only allegations. A person is presumed innocent unless and until he or she is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. Police arrested Cyprian at a condominium he was renting in Auburn, but the investigation revealed that between April 2013 and his arrest in June he had rented hotel rooms throughout
the greater Seattle area as part of his prostitution scheme. According to records filed in the case, Cyprian forced the women to work as prostitutes at hotels in SeaTac, Bellevue, Mountlake Terrace, and in Portland. To advertise the women, he posted ads on Backpage.com and other adult sexual services websites. Cyprian allegedly controlled the women with beatings and threats as he forced them to give him all the money they earned as prostitutes. “Traffickers prey upon vulnerable women – convincing them that they have nowhere to go, and even less value.

Fire & Rescue Blotter The Valley Regional Fire Authority responded to 217 calls for service between July 28 and Aug. 3, among which were the following:
July 28 Water leak: 10:51 a.m., (Pacific). Firefighters responding to a water leak in the roadway on Butte Avenue Southeast found water gushing from a water main along the thoroughfare, so they provided traffic control while the City of Pacific’s Water Department was securing the leak.
July 29 Trailer fire: 7:48 p.m., (Auburn). Valley Com dispatched firefighters and South King Fire and Rescue units to a mobile home fire in the Tall Cedars Mobile Home Park at 401 37th St. SE. By the time VRFA firefighters got there, fire had already consumed about half of the home, though two women and two men had already escaped the residence. Firefighters put the fire out quickly, but the home was a total loss. One of the men sustained minor burns when he tried to go back into the house. He refused treatment.
July 30 Aid call: 8:25 a.m., (Lakeland Hills). After firefighters helped an Auburn senior who was showing stroke
symptoms, a private ambulance transported the woman to MultiCare Auburn Medical Center (MAMC).
July 31 Brush fires: 6:04 p.m., (Algona). Firefighters dispatched to a possible transformer fire found multiple brush fires at three different spots. Crews quickly contained the fires, thus preventing them from spreading. There was a brief interruption of rail traffic on the Union Pacific Rail Line while firefighters were doing their stuff. Helping out were Boeing Fire, Kent Regional Fire Authority and South King Fire and Rescue.
Aug. 1 Accident: 8 a.m., (Auburn). After firefighters helped one victim of a rollover accident on Auburn Way North, a private ambulance transported him or her to MAMC.
Aug. 2 Aid call: 9:20 a.m., (Lea Hill). Firefighters evaluated an elderly woman who had fallen as she was coming out of her garage, sustaining minor facial injuries. A private ambulance motored the woman to MAMC for more care.
Aug. 3 Accident: 4:41 p.m., (Algona). After firefighters evaluated an elderly woman who’d been involved in a twovehicle accident, a private ambulance got her to a local hospital.

Transportation for the purpose of prostitution through coercion and enticement is punishable by up to 20 years in prison, and up to three years of supervised release.

LAKE TAPPS has reached its highest approved level (elevation 543 feet), according to the Cascade Water Alliance. The lake is now filled to full recreational level as Cascade begins its maintenance outage. The headgates are closed and no water will be added to the lake during the remainder of the recreational season, the alliance said. Cascade will minimize water released through the tailrace. It is expected that recreational lake levels will be maintained through Labor Day and possibly into mid-September. Cascade is repairing Dike 3, replacing the last section of the timber flume, refurbishing the headgates and assessing facilities that drain water from the lake back to the White River. Immediately after Labor Day, lake levels will be dramatically reduced – about a foot a day – and residents should remove all boats from the lake prior to this time.

The point is climate change In his June 26 opinion piece, Don Brunell discusses safety issues regarding the transport of energy products, i.e., coal and oil, into Washington. Yes, safety is an issue; unfortunately Mr. Brunell missed the “elephant in the room” – climate change. Not once did he mention the most critical issue related to the transport and export of such carbon-intensive products – climate change. Do we as the most powerful country on Earth want to perpetuate more climate disruption by shipping Montana and Wyoming coal via trains into Washington for transport to China? While we try to convince China that the biggest carbon polluters must take responsibility to solve the greatest problem ever to face humankind, are we going to help them pollute even more? Talk about double standards. Beside climate change impacts, important reasons for not allowing the transport of such carbon-intensive products are safety of such transport, significant traffic snarls in each city along the way, and the huge costs to jurisdictions and people trying to deal with it. Mr. Brunell mentions jobs – the standard argument used to get people to accept something they don’t want or need, and that would adversely impact them and their children. However, no jobs would be created in South King County. So, we would get all the costs and none of the benefits. Any permanent jobs created anywhere in Washington would be very few, amounting to a drop in the bucket. The big energy companies and railroad conglomerates would get all the profits, but none of the risks. The local citizens would suffer all of the impacts. It amounts to a selfish money grab by a few at the expense [ more MY TURN page 6 ]

Tougher DUI laws are needed We constantly see in the news where a driver, high on marijuana or under the influence of alcohol, hits a pedestrian or another car, killing someone. They are charged with driving under the influence or vehicular homicide. They get a few years in prison and then are free to live their lives. But the person they killed is dead.

Inslee water quality plan too little, too late More delay is about the only thing that any of us who live here in Washington can count on when it comes to a badly needed update of state water quality standards to protect our health. After decades of footdragging by previous governors, Gov. Jay Inslee recently unveiled his plan to revise our state’s ridiculously
outdated water quality standards. While the plan offers a small increase in protection from 70 percent of the toxic chemicals regulated by the federal Clean Water Act, it maintains the inadequate status quo for the other 30 percent. At best, Inslee’s plan offers minimal progress in reducing contami-

nation; at worst, it provides a tenfold increase in our cancer risk rate. Water quality standards are based in large part on how much fish and shellfish we eat. The more we eat, the cleaner the water needs to be. Two numbers drive our water quality standards: our fish consumption rate; and our cancer risk rate from pollution in our waters. Inslee’s plan rightly increases our fish consumption rate from the
current 6.5 grams per day (about one serving of fish or shellfish per month) to 175 grams per day (at least one meal of fish or shellfish per day). Support for that amount is a huge concession by tribes. Most tribal members, as well as Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, eat far more than 175 grams of fish and shellfish per day. Current studies show daily consumption rates of 236 to 800 grams. Even those numbers represent suppressed rates. If more fish and shellfish were [ more BEING FRANK page 6 ]

While giving a little with one hand, Inslee takes away a lot with the other, increasing our “acceptable” cancer risk rate tenfold, from one in a million to one in 100,000. Do you think anyone who gets cancer from the pollution in our fish and shellfish would find that risk rate acceptable? Would you? That one in a million rate has protected all of us for the past 20 years. By increasing the cancer risk rate, Inslee effectively cancels out most of the health benefits and improved water quality provided by the increased fish
carbon pollution in the earth’s atmosphere, makes this whole idea a very dangerous nonstarter. In summary, the transporter of American carbon-intensive energy products to Washington and on to Asia is a plan with no benefit for the public, huge costs to South King County, and an increase in global climate disruption – all for the selfish financial motivations of those proposing it. This is the ultimate con game, and we’re not buying it.
consumption rate. The fish consumption and cancer risk rates are supposed to protect those who need it the most: children; women of childbearing age; Indians; Asian and Pacific Islanders; sport fishermen; and anyone who likes to eat local fish and shellfish. When the most vulnerable among us is protected, so is everyone else. To make up for the loss of protection under the cancer risk rate, Inslee proposes a statewide toxics reduction effort that would require legislative approval and funding. While the idea of a large toxics reduction program is a good one, it is not a substitute for an updated state water quality standards rule that carries the
force of law. No one knows what the Legislature might do, but two things are certain. There will be more delay and more opposition to Inslee’s proposal. Boeing and other opponents of improved water-quality rules will likely engage in full-strength lobbying during the session to block any meaningful change, claiming that it will increase their cost of doing business.

Sound Cities Association helps launch Let’s Move! initiative
[ STUDY from page 1 ] “The plume is migrating toward Auburn, and the grant allows the City to study how fast it’s moving and the best ways to mitigate it,” said Councilmember John Holman. “The good news is we’ve got a state department stepping up to help study it.” The plume is also known to have moved south, under the city of Algona. In 2013, the DOE began working to find out the extent of the contaminated groundwater there. Under the supervision of the state Department of Ecology (DOE), Boeing this past June sank 12 monitoring wells and 14 probes in northeast Algona to confirm the location and determine the impact of groundwater contamination by TCE on that city.
Since 1953, many different manufacturers have branded the Indian name, including overseas brands such as Royal Enfield and AMC of England, and American companies such as the California Motorcycle Company in Gilroy, Calif. None has been particularly successful. In 2011, however, Polaris Industries, originally a snowmobile manufacturer in Medina, Minn., acquired the name and moved its manufacturing division to Spirit Lake, Iowa, where Polaris’ other motorcycle brand, Victory, is also made. Now, local enthusiasts can check out, test ride and even buy the newly redesigned classics from the newly-opened Indian and Victory dealership on West Valley Highway.
While the DOE is directing all such investigations in Algona, Boeing has hired a contractor to do the actual work and is paying for the studies The studies are one step toward determining the location and size of the underground contamination, which includes solvent chemicals, primarily TCE and vinyl chloride (VC). All information gleaned should help to plan the cleanup of the groundwater contamination, to decide on the next steps to take the investigation, and to provide information the state must have to assess potential health risks. People with questions or comments may contact Ecology at boeingauburnsite@ecy. wa.gov. Ecology also has a local phone line, 253-219-7645.
Spike Addis is the head salesman at the new dealership – owned by the Hinshaw group – which opened in early July. “Opening this store was an opportunity to sell America’s oldest manufactured motorcycle,” Addis said. “Polaris’ motorcycle sales are up 140 percent, and it’s all due to Indian. They are taking the world by storm again.” The key to the success, according to Addis, is the redesign of the Indian’s Thunderstroke 111 V-Twin Engine. “Polaris has a really good reputation in the industry as far as building a quality project,” Addis said. “So they did a lot of research and development before they brought out this new Thunderstroke 111. Polaris redesigned Indian from the ground up.” According to Addis, the new engine was road tested over more than a
[ SITE from page 1 ] property’s new owner, Panattoni Development Co. of Newport Beach, Calif. The King County Solid Waste Division (KCSWD) confirmed by phone recently that the construction hubbub and flying dust has nothing to do with a transfer station. A spokesperson said that the top candidate for a new South King County transfer station is Algona. “The environmental review process undertaken by King County examines the probable significant adverse environmental impacts of this project for each site. This effort revealed issues at the two sites located in Auburn that would significantly affect the project of the Indian versus the Harley. As far as the engine goes, I mean, Indian uses a steel-forged crank in their motors. Harley uses a twopiece, push-together crank,” Addis said. “The Indian has 2½-inch main bearings. That’s bigger than the bearings on your car.” Addis said independent reviews of the bike’s new engine have been glowing. “They call it the 200,000 (mile) motor,” he said. “Indian doesn’t say that, but the reviews do. Cycle World called the Indian Chief Classic Cruiser Bike of the Year for 2014.” The manufacturer is so confident about the durability of its engine, Addis said, that it offers a five-year unlimited mileage warranty. Other notable Indian details are back. “They still have the war bonnet on the front fender, and that lights up when you turn it on,” he said. “They also make many models

million miles, more than a half-billion engine hours, and more than 2,000 dyno hours to ensure the engine’s performance and reliability before its release. “They launched at Sturgis (S.D.) in 2013,” Addis said. “The old Indians used the three-piece engine, transmission and primary, much like the Harley. What Polaris did is make it an all-in-one. The engine and transmission share the same oil. The engine is designed to look like a 1948 Indian 80-cubic-inch flathead. “They wanted new technology but wanted to pay homage to Indians of the past,” Addis said. “They maintained the fenders because that’s an Indian thing. When you see one going down the road, you’ll know it’s an Indian.” Which is perfect for riders looking for an alternative to the Harley. “People want an alternative, as far as the technology

Such issues do not exist for the site located in Algona, next to the current facility,” according to King County’s website. “The King County Solid Waste Division is in the process of discussing mitigation strategies with the City of Algona that would address the minor potential environmental impacts anticipated, and would allow the County to site the new station next to the existing station. These discussions are productive and ongoing,” according to the website.” The Auburn site is one of 12 industrial projects Panattoni expects to build between Sumner and Everett. KCSWD expects to release a new timeline for the project in September.
with a brown saddle.” Addis said the new manufacturer even makes the wrench originally issued with the bikes. “It’s a wrench that is supposed to take off the serrated cap where your oil dipstick is located,” he said. “But when you flip it over, it’s a bottle cap opener. Every Indian since they started making them has come with that.” In 2014, Indian offered three models – the entry-
level Classic, the Vintage and the top-of-the-line Chieftain. With new 2015 models expected in September – including two new additions to the line, the Scout and Roadmaster, and the return of two-toned paint jobs – the Auburn dealership has just five new 2014 models left on the showroom floor. The motorcycle dealership is at 1611 West Valley Highway S., Auburn.

Superintendent’s Perspective
M
uch attention has been given to the success of Auburn School District elementary schools, and rightly so, having earned the Road Map Collective Impact Award for 3rd Grade Literacy Proficiency and reaching 2020 Road Map targets in 2013. More than building a beautiful new Auburn High School, our comprehensive high schools also have made some significant academic break through performances. Most recently, ARHS, AHS and AMHS received Washington Achievement Awards for high progress in academic performance over the last three years. These awards represent the top 10 percent of high schools in the state of Washington. Please join me in applauding the work of the teachers, principals and counselors in our Auburn School District high schools. In efforts to enhance career and college preparation of our students, to raise academic expectations and remove opportunity barriers, the high schools have increased Advanced Placement enrollments by 100 percent over the last three years, eliminating opportunity gaps. Additionally, Advanced Placement is now available at the 9th grade level in high school. This year, 86 percent of our high school students took the Pre-SAT or SAT exams for college entrance. Our counselors and administrators have done an amazing job making this happen. The Auburn School District leads South King County in high school graduates that complete a Career and Technical Education (CTE) program of study with 52 percent completion in the class of 2013, Renton School District at 48 percent, Kent at 31 percent, Highline at 31 percent and Federal Way at 22 percent. Our high school CTE programs receive regional, state and national acclaim in a wide range of competitions, including Auburn Mountainview Robotics making it to the semifinals of the world championships. High school math teachers provide a District Math Championship where students compete using their math and team skills. Have I mentioned increases in on-time graduation rates? On-time graduation rates have increased from 75 percent to 81.3 percent. Auburn Riverside has an amazing 96 percent on-time graduation rate. Ninth grade credit attainment increased by 5 percent this past year. Our middle schools have made a game changing success by signing up 95 percent of our eligible students for College Bound Scholarships, an increase of 68 percent from three years ago. 233 English Language Learners earned high school world language credit requirements for entrance to the university. Sincerely, Dr. Kip Herren

Auburn School District Teachers of the Year The Auburn School District selects an elementary, middle and high school teacher of the year in recognition of outstanding contributions. The 2013-14 teachers of the year are: Meri Benedict is the high school level outstanding teacher of the year. Benedict teaches health, leadership and is the activities director for Auburn Riverside High School. Benedict has been teaching in the Auburn School District for almost 35 years. She started at Gildo Rey Elementary and then taught at Olympic Middle School before moving to Auburn High School. She transferred from Auburn High to Auburn Riverside eight years ago and became the activities director. During the course of her career she has taught Spanish, French, English, health, leadership and more. Benedict is a Nationally Board Certified teacher in Adolescent Health. As activities director, she is responsible for all aspects of the student government, is the director of all clubs and activities, coordinates all school dances, coordinates graduation, manages the ASB budget and more. Benedict started the Link Crew program at both Auburn High and Auburn Riverside and views it as her single greatest accomplishment of her career. This program teaches students a process to mentor their peers and freshmen to create a positive, embracing climate at school. She is active in many professional associations and outside of the classroom. She is the South Puget Sound Local Association of Student Councils advisor for the 2013-14 school year, was the King County representative for the Washington Activities Coordinator’s Association, has worked for 30 years in various roles during the Association of Washington School Principals summer leadership camps, and is currently the director of two leadership camps.
Benedict said, “High school students struggle with their identity and the battle between being identical to everyone else and being themselves. My joy comes when they learn their uniqueness is a gift and an asset and begins to thrive as individuals.” Susan Winter is the middle school level outstanding teacher of the year. She teaches social studies and leadership at Mt. Baker Middle School Winter has been teaching in the Auburn School District for 24 years. After teaching at Alpac Elementary for 13 years, she is now in her 11th year at Mt. Baker. Winter is committed to a holistic approach to education. She is committed to strong academic instruction and learning and, at the same time, is committed to supporting her students’ emotional, social, and physical well-being. Her philosophy is to help her students create possibilities for themselves that empower them to get into action to create futures they love. In her leadership classes, she works with students to inspire them to take responsibility for their own learning and help them achieve personal integrity in all areas of their lives. She is a collaborator and brings the language arts and social studies teams together to facilitate effective instruction. She is a leader in social studies curriculum and has helped coordinate it district wide. Outside of her positive classroom, Winter founded and runs an after-school club called The End Zone Academy. The club’s purpose is to foster community service and students work with The Humane Society, The Auburn Food Bank, the Terry Home and more. She also organized the district middle school event in January, Celebrate Change, to recognize and encourage community service. The event also raised money towards a goal of raising $10,000 to build a school in South America next summer.

Tr a v i s Vo l k i s t h e elementary school level outstanding teacher of the year. Volk touches the lives of students, families, and his peers at Washington Elementary. In his seventh year of teaching first grade at Washington, Volk is, according to Washington principal Pauline Thomas, “one of those teachers who parents request and whose students consistently meet benchmark assessments.” She also notes that Volk has been an exemplary teacher by providing a positive, effective learning environment with rigorous curriculum and instruction. In addition to his highly effective classroom, Volk is active outside of his classroom, too. He serves on the Autism Resources Team and has led professional development focused on effective classroom strategies. He has been on the Washington School Improvement Planning Team, Positive Behavior Intervention System, Olweus Climate Committee, the PTA Yearbook, and has served as the Auburn Food Bank food drive facilitator for the last seven years. Travis also participated in the Auburn Teacher Leadership Academy during its inaugural year. He has been instrumental in the transition to the Common Core State Standards for first grade. He is a leader in the first grade professional learning community as they look at data and make curriculum, instruction, and assessment decisions. Volk’s favorite part of teaching is the people. “First graders are a constant source of laughter,” he said. He also loves the great group of educators at Washington and the Autism Resource Team. He said it is a strong network of teachers willing to collaborate for student success. Volk is a product of the Auburn School District from kindergarten through 12th grade. He believes every student deserves a teacher who works to understand their needs and cares about them.

Dynamite bounced from regional REPORTER STAFF
The Auburn Little League Junior Softball Dynamite’s postseason ended Tuesday with a 9-2 loss to the Fontana (Calif.) all-stars at the West Regional Little League Tournament in Tucson, Ariz. Auburn got things started in the top of the first inning when Taylor Hanson led off with a double. Megan Perius drove Hanson home with a single and later scored on Brianna Azevado’s base hit. After posting one run in the third inning, Fontana roared back in the bottom of the fourth inning, with
Sarah Guzman’s two-run double sparking a six-run explosion. Auburn scored its second run in the fourth but was unable to catch Fontana, which put up two more runs in the sixth. Hanson went 2-for-3 to lead the Dynamite. Azevado finished with two singles. Caitlyn Rhoades, Mindy Wanner and Laurel Tauzer each added a hit. Alia Murillo and Vanessa Derringer also had doubles, and Madison Stein drove in two runs for Fontana. Dezire Enriquez earned the win in the circle, striking out four and giving up
just one earned run in six innings of work. Rhoades was tagged with the loss, having given up 10 hits and eight earned runs in six innings. She also struck out two and walked four batters. Fontana moves on to the championship bracket to face all-star teams from Nevada, Oregon and Alaska contending for the right to move on to the Little League Junior Softball World Series. The Dynamite opened the double-elimination regional tourney with a 3-1 win over Fontana before losing 13-1 to Alaska.

SANTANA BARES SOUL From the opening notes of “Galaxy Dance Intro” to the final sustained notes of Carlos Santana’s guitar ringing out, last Friday’s concert at the White River Amphitheatre proved less of a rock show and more of a spiritual gathering for the audience. Led by shamanic lead guitarist Santana, 67, the band soared through a jam-packed setlist, including songs from all eras of the nearly 50-year old band’s catalog. Among the highlights were performances of hits such as “Oye Coma Va”, “Evil Ways”, “Black Magic Woman” and “Smooth” and extended jams by the band, which at times featured five percussion players driving the beat. Salvador Santana – Santana’s son whose band opened the show – joined his father for the songs “Corazon Espinado” and “Total Destruction of the Mind”.
Classic, legendary sounds: Santana vocalist Andy Vargas performs, top. Carlos Santana, far left, strings together one of his many hits, and Paoli Mejías, a master percussionist, near left, provides the beat.
