Open house draws Klahanie residents Discussion begins to annex to Sammamish BY REPORTER STAFF
Approximately 35 residents of the Klahanie Potential Annexation Area attended the first of three scheduled informational open houses regarding the proposal, Aug. 6 at Faith Church in Klahanie.
The city of Sammamish has already done a study on how annexation will affect Klahanie residents, and Sammamish at large, so now the city is doing public outreach, answering questions and providing information. Per the city's calculations, a homeowner with an assessed valuation of $500,000 will save $422 in property taxes with the annexation. The city states that residents of Klahanie will also receive better services.
A fiscal analysis, done by Butkus Consulting, Inc., shows that the city, after including additional operating expenses against additional operating revenue, would likely net $1.24 million annually after annexation. The analysis did not include approximately $3 million to improve Issaquah-Fall City Road, which the city has committed to do. SEE KLAHANIE, 6
The East Link extension is almost a decade from completion and neither Sound Transit nor King County Metro yet know, specifically, how buses from the greater Eastside will connect to light rail stations in Bellevue or Mercer Island. But dozens of bus riders converged on the Hilton Garden Inn on Monday to learn more about the plan so far — and give transit officials their druthers on every subject from travel times to bathroom availability. Attitudes ran the gamut from inquisitive, to apprehensive, to hostile — as was the case of one resident upset about Sound Transit’s design of the Mt. Baker light rail station, where a road divides the station and bus stops. The layout creates risk and inconvenience for bus riders crossing over to the station on foot, he said. Central to the discussion is Sound Transit’s light rail system extension to the north, south and east of Seattle. The light rail extensions are a preparative response to expected population increases in the Greater Seattle Metro area — increases of an expected 1 million additional people to the region by 2040 — and resulting traffic congestion. “Road congestion is going to increase with or without light rail,” Sound Transit spokesperson Geoff Patrick said. “It’s a matter of maximizing the number of people who are off the road and on transit to ease (congestion).” Genna Nashem rides the bus from the Issaquah Highlands to Downtown Seattle and back every day. At the open house, she questioned transit representatives intently, particularly about King County bus connections to the South Bellevue and Mercer Island light rail stations. Neither Sound Transit nor King County Metro have worked out particulars on which routes will connect to SEE TRANSIT, 6
Issaquah to delay two school projects for one year The Issaquah School District will delay breaking ground for the new Issaquah Middle School and reconstruction of Clark Elementary by one year. The decision was made to ensure that its capital projects are completed within the budget approved in the 2012 school bond, school officials said in a news release. Issaquah Middle School will break ground in July of 2015 with the new school opening to students in fall 2016. Clark Elementary will subsequently open in the fall of 2017. The district does not anticipate this to cause a change to the scheduled opening of the new secondary campus in the fall of 2016, which will be located on the current Is-
saquah Middle School site. The cost estimate for the initial design submitted to the district for the reconstructed Issaquah Middle School came back over budget. Further, the district learned of the city of Issaquah’s redevelopment plan to increase population density within the downtown core area. Recognizing the likelihood of an even greater increase in enrollment, the district sought a revised design to accommodate more students in the near term and allow for future expansion. The cost estimates for the revised designs also came in over the initial project budget. “We are committed to building the highest quality
schools while maintaining the district’s fiscal integrity,” said Superintendent Ron Thiele. “While the revised timeline is a disappointment, we still expect to complete all of the 2012 bond projects before 2020 as promised.” The Sunny Hills Elementary rebuild timeline and budget are not affected and the school is still scheduled to open in the fall of 2017. Liberty High School is finishing Phase 3 of construction and will be ready for students in September. In addition, the completed remodels and additions at Issaquah Valley Elementary and Apollo Elementary still are set for ribbon cutting ceremonies on Sept. 2.

Fun, sun and food brighten Sammamish Days BY ABIGAIL STUDENT SPECIAL TO THE REPORTER
Whether it was the work of great weather, live entertainment, activities, food or available parking, this year’s Sammamish Days had a remarkable turnout in comparison to years past. Sammamish Recreation Supervisor Joanna Martin estimated that between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., the Sammamish City Commons hosted over 1,000 attendees. Event coordinators upped the ante this year by adding three new kid-friendly activities to the festival, including bouncing toys, face painting and animal balloon making. Parents were encouraged to bring their children for the day and all children’s activities were free. However, there was no shortage of adult fun either. The festival held several booths representing local businesses and other organizations within the greater Sammamish area. Adults were welcome to pack their own lunch to enjoy the picnic atmosphere, but many opted for a treat from the four food carts available. The carts offered everything from Middle Eastern cuisine to summer favorites like sandwiches and shaved ice. Families were welcome to dine at the tables provided or sit in the grass to enjoy the live entertainment. There were nine performances over the course of the day. Most were group routines, such as The Not-Its! and the From Within Nucleus Bharatanatyam dancers. Although Martin was ecstatic that so many attended, she identified a more specific highlight for her experience.
Top: Booths filled Sammamish Commons for Sammamish Days. Above left: Hypnotist Joe Black had people’s rapt attention. Above right: Shaved ice was popular on a hot day. ABIGAIL STUDENT photos “I was pleased to see the number of families that attended and even more excited to see such a diverse group of families,” Martin said. Pleased is not to be confused with complacent either; Martin and her team look forward to making even more "tweaks" to improve the event for next year.
“I think we really hit our stride this year.” Martin continued, “We’re really excited to go into things next year with a more developed idea of what works.” Abigail Student is a student at Washington State University.

Challenge race brings smiles to youngsters with disabilities
Twenty enthusiastic children with disabilities came ready to race Saturday as the Rotary Club of Sammamish and LEO (Life Enrichment Options) hosted the 10th annual Soapbox Derby-type race in Sammamish. The event pairs an able-bodied youth with a youngster with a disability to race down a hill in a gravity-powered car. Pitching in to help at the event were Eastside Fire and Rescue and Explorers, Sammamish Police Department, Skyline Cheerleaders, Athletes for Kids and Trader Joe's in Sammamish, handing out snacks and water. Sammamish Mayor Tom Vance kicked off the races by waving the flag "GO!" before the first race. Money was raised through financial sponsorships that will go to building and maintaining homes for adults with disabilities that enable them to live independently, said Rebecca Jay, who coordinated the event for the Rotary club. Currently there are five such homes in the IssaquahSammamish area.

Work on transmission lines may cause delays Puget Sound Energy’s electric service partner, Potelco, Inc., is working on a 10-mile stretch of transmission lines between PSE’s substations in Issaquah, Redmond and Sammamish. Work will be done weekdays between 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is expected to be completed in September. Potelco crews will be working primarily along Issaquah-Pine Lake Road, 228th Avenue Southeast, Sahalee Way Northeast and Northeast Union Hill Road. Work will take place in two phases — the first phase of work will begin at Black Nugget Drive and proceed north toward Pine Lake. Crews will replace some poles, as well as rehang wire and reconfigure the electrical equipment on existing poles. Expect to see large

Alzheimer’s Association sets town hall in Issaquah The Alzheimer’s Association, Western and Central Washington Chapter, will hold a town hall meeting from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Aug. 21 to highlight — and solicit feedback on — public policy priorities, including the National Alzheimer’s Plan. The event, which also will include a discussion of a new initiative to improve health care for “dual eligibles,” older and disabled Washingtonians who qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid, will be held at Swedish Hospital, 751 N.E. Blakely Drive, Issaquah. Community members, including those
living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias, their caregivers, and elected officials and representatives from federal, state, and local government, as well as the research, health and long-term care communities are invited to come, learn and share their thoughts. The town hall will include a panel reflecting the breadth and depth of the Alzheimer’s experience. The Alzheimer’s Association’s objective is to educate the public, solicit input, and provide an opportunity for the community to interact with elected leaders.
City of Issaquah Mayor Fred Butler welcomes hikers to Issaquah at the Harvey Manning statue July 19 as part of the Hidden Trails of Tiger Mountain Hike, part of the Explore the Greenway trip series. The event celebrated the dozens of years of conservation work that helped create the recreation for which Issaquah is now so well known. Green Trails Maps created a custom map for the trip, outlining the hikers route along the northern flank of Tiger Mountain, including the city of Issaquah’s new trail system at Park Point.

Bike riders, community joined to mnake cancer fundraiser a success
BY NINA MILLIGAN
L
ast Sunday morning approximately 150 bike riders dressed in orange and black “kits” rolled through Issaquah and up East Lake Sammamish Parkway. Cruising through this half-way point of their 100-mile ride, they were spread out, riding in twos and threes, many alone. Many were cancer survivors; all were touched by cancer. The ride raised funds for the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and goes by the edgy name, “Obliteride.” The event is an entirely local ride in its second year. The money raised here, stays here. At the time of this writing the effort had brought in $1,585,477. Organizers hope to break the $2M mark by Sept. 20. This photo is of one of those riders, my husband Robert Milligan, a two-time cancer survivor. Having tapped our friends and family many times over the years in such fundraising
efforts, he knew this was too much money for many of them this time. Undaunted, Rob took a chance and asked the president where he works, the environmental consultancy CARDNO, to provide for his base requirement. This caring top-executive popped $1,500 into Rob’s on-line Obliteride account. Still, our friends and family do what they can. The sweetest contribution came from our granddaughters (Zia two and a half, and Luella, just over one year old). They gave $30. But let me tell you about another sweet contribution. While helping Rob with some technical difficulties at the Squak Mountain rest stop, a seasoned hiker came out of the trail into the parking lot with her two dogs. She asked me, “What’s going here?” Finding all these strangers in her usually quiet mountain parking lot could have upset her; I couldn’t tell. Her tone had me a bit worried. But she allowed me to tell her all about the

I-594 will save lives in our state
Rob Milligan rides past his 'Survivor' signs along the route. COURTESY PHOTO ride, the riders, their fund raising for Fred Hutch and about my husband who was waving good-bye to get back to his ride. She said, "Hold this, please," handing me one of her dog's leashes. "Oh, and this one, too." Then, while she fished her pocketbook out of her pack, she explained, “My father, mother and sister all died of cancer.” She fingered out of her wallet all that was in there: 10 bucks. "Add this to your husband's donations. Say it's from Rottweiler Lucy." Her Rottweiler smiled up at me in full accord. And there were many more. While Obliteride aims to raise $2 million, Rob is excited and hopes to break $2 thousand. This ride had many delights, some by design, some by accident. Ride organizers honored survivors in many ways. One was to place “Survivor” signs along the route, with the
rider’s name hand-written on them. When I arrived at the Issaquah High School rest stop (our rest stop), and our son later, to met up with Rob to cheer him on, we found the “Robert” sign made for him right at the entrance. It could have been anywhere along a 100-mile route, anywhere from Seattle to Renton, to Redmond to Bellevue – and back again, but it was at OUR high school, our stop. These are just a few of my observations; Rob's are always better. He relished meeting heroes along the way, many with far more impressive stories to tell than his. His struggles at 50, 70, 90 miles, were abated by a wash of gratitude he carried all along the ride. Gratitude for living an active life, for the care he received when sick. It’s well-known, but worth repeating: cancer (and other) survivors give thanks for their good fortune every

Question of the week:
“ Do you think the Seattle Mariners will make the playoffs?”
day, never forgetting the threat that still looms. It’s been 13 years since Rob’s last life-threatening cancer; he was only 27 with his first. Obliteride was his third cancer-fundraising, 100-mile bike riding challenge. Beat up and sore, he finished stronger and looks forward to the next one. We would like to thank the supportive and patient car drivers along the Obliteride route. Thank you for helping these folks raise cancer research awareness and funds. Thank you to the jurisdictions that supported the ride: Issaquah, Sammamish, King County, etc. And thank you, Rottweiler Lucy. I hope I remembered your name and your sad lost family members correctly. If not, know that I remember you and your generosity. Nina Milligan lives in Issaquah

Yes: 100% No: 0%
So many of us feel powerless to affect change in the midst of turmoil at home and across the globe. But there is something we can do to save lives right here in Washington – vote “yes” on Initiative 594 this fall. A concerned mother and a member of a family that hunts, I believe this is a measure on which those on all sides can find common ground. The initiative respects the passionately held 2nd Amendment rights of responsible gun owners, while closing the loophole in our state that gives convicted felons and other dangerous people easy access to firearms. Case in point: domestic abusers. When a firearm is present in the home, a woman is 12 times more likely to be killed by an intimate partner with a history of violence. While federal law prohibits convicted abusers from owning firearms, the loophole in our law makes it easy for them to evade a background check by buying a gun from a stranger at a gun show or online with no questions asked. States that have closed this loophole experience 38 percent fewer handgun murders of women by intimate partners. We can do the same. I encourage my neighbors in Washington to support I-594, and connect with momsdemandaction. org and wagunresponsbility.org.

KLAHANIE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Laura Philpot, the director of public works for the city, said if annexation occurs, Sammamish also plans to take responsibility for the portion of Issaquah-Pine Lake Road that borders Issaquah. The city hopes to widen it to five lanes between Issaquah-Fall City Road to Southeast Klahanie Boulevard. Philpot said a detailed analysis will be done on Issaquah-Fall City Road beginning in 2016. The road improvements are a high-priority for the city. Also, over time, other roads in Klahanie would be brought up to Sammamish standards. The King County Road levy, currently paid by Klahanie area residents, will disappear. However, one Klahanie resident, who did not want to be named, is very concerned about 212th Avenue Northeast, which she said is very dangerous, so much so that bicyclists are not allowed on it anymore. The road is off Northeast Inglewood Hill Road, which is a main access road into Sammamish. Zoning in Klahanie will be very similar to what it is now as part of unincorporated King County. Councilmember Tom Odell said there will be increased protections regarding wetlands and sensitive areas. From a citizen's prospective, nothing will
change with fire protection and response, said Deputy Chief Bud Backer with Eastside Fire and Rescue. In fact, Sammamish will pick up more of the cost of running Station 83, also known as the "Klahanie Station." Speaking with Backer was another Klahanie resident who did not want to be named, but she said she's lived in Klahanie since 1988. She said living in King County has been very difficult, and it's about time it was annexed into a city. Sammamish police contract with the King County Sheriff 's office and will add six officers if annexation is approved by voters. As far as parks go, Klahanie Park will be maintained by the city if the annexation is approved. Jessi Bon, director of Parks and Recreation said the city has no major changes planned for the park, only to keep it up to the city's standards which include litter and garbage removed daily, restrooms cleaned daily, lawn work, trail maintenance, brush control, annual tree inspections and more. The Sammamish City Council hopes to review the annexation in October or November. Then the issue will have be presented to the King County Boundary Review Board, perhaps early in 2015, before an election can take place. April 2015 is the target for the election. After an election is official, the city will pass an ordinance establishing the official date of annexation, which it would like to be in August of 2015 or earlier.

light rail and how. But they have some early ideas. For example, King County Metro might “reinvest” more routes into the greater Eastside once the East Link extension starts bringing riders into Seattle in 2023, deputy project director Don Billen said. Travel time into the city is expected to go down, even with transfer time between a bus and light rail. Sound Transit promoted a peak hours estimate of 24 minutes from Eastgate to downtown Seattle, versus a current 30 minutes on a single bus. But Nashem wasn’t sold on the faster time. “I’m more concerned (after learning more),” she said. “For me getting on a bus and riding just that bus on a straight shot to downtown Seattle is efficient.” Bellevue College student and Issaquah resident Nefi Clark said she currently takes one-to-two, to twoto-three buses to travel to and from
campus, depending on the hour. She said she was highly concerned and curious about any issue that might affect bus access. She relies on it to go to school, or venture into Seattle for fun, and said she knows many other students and elderly rely on the bus. “I don’t necessarily see myself being here and using the bus a decade from now,” she said. “But there will be other people like me, so why not think ahead for everybody else?” County government relations officer Chris Arkills, who was at the open house representing Executive Dow Constantine, said he hoped all parties would be able to make the post-extension transit system so reliable riders wouldn’t have to think about it. “In cities that have subway systems, the riders don’t stress about their transfers working,” he said. “New Yorkers don’t worry if they just miss a subway because they know another one’s coming in 10 minutes.” Daniel Nash: 425-453-4290; dnash@issaquahreporter.com

After discussion in the Land and Shore committee Wednesday night, the Issaquah City Council will vote Monday, Aug. 18, on whether to declare its
intent to pursue annexation of roughly 380 acres of the park. Lake Sammamish State Park sits on the southern tip of its namesake body and borders Issaquah to the south, east and west. Washington State Parks and Recreation contacted the city in March requesting the city consider annexation to make permitting construction projects more efficient, among other reasons. Slightly less than 18 acres of the park is already in the city limits, but the majority of its land resides in unincorporated King County. This puts permitting of the park’s construction projects

under the purview of county offices in Snoqualmie. But “The State Park is across the street from our city permitting offices,” Planning Manager Trish Heinonen wrote to the Reporter. “Site visits, inspections and anything to be clarified on site can occur faster since our locations are so close.” The city and citizens were also heavily involved in the drafting of the park’s 2007 concept plan, which included several projects completed or underway, including a replacement boardwalk (finished in September 2013), a replacement bathhouse (underway) and other beach improvements. If the bill to pursue annexation passes Monday, Mayor Fred Butler will submit a notice of intent to the county Boundary Review Board and City Manager Bob Harrison will continue to craft an interlocal agreement with state Parks and Recreation. dnash@bellevuereporter.com

No. As a matter of fact, we call it a community center that’s dedicated to health. We call it a shopping mall for gifts that bring some much-needed cheer. We call it a school where you can learn about what ails you and how to avoid it in the first place. We call it a peaceful place for healing where the best minds in medicine come together as one. We call it a no-wait emergency room, a family-friendly primary-care clinic, an advanced lab and diagnostic imaging center, and a home to dozens of expert specialists. We call this place Swedish Issaquah. We think you’ll call it extraordinary.

Wrestling camp brings NCAA champ to Eastside Tony Nelson, top-level coaches teach Eastside athletes skills, life lessons BY JOSH SUMAN ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Mercer Island High School wrestling coach Creighton Laughary knows the inside of a gymnasium isn’t the most attractive place for youngsters during the summer. There are tournaments for select soccer and baseball teams around the West Coast, offseason workouts for football and basketball that help players gain the inside track for playing time during the season and, of course, the beckoning waters of Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish. "It shows a lot of commitment," he said. "To come into the gym for a week shows they really want to succeed." For around 150 kids inside the pavilion at Northwest University recently, there was good reason to get out of the sun, as one of the nation’s most recognizable youth wrestling camps made the trip to the area. J Robinson Intensive Wrestling Camps brought its traveling roadshow to the Eastside, bringing two-time NCAA Champion Tony Nelson, and a host of top-level coaches from around the country to tutor area youth. Bellevue Christian coach Pete DeLaRosa brought a handful of his athletes to the camp, saying the reputation of J Robinson — the head wrestling coach at the University of Minnesota and namesake of the camp — precedes the man. "It's the number one camp in the nation," DeLaRosa said. "The number one thing is character, and how he explains hard work." Nelson, a back-to-back NCAA heavyweight champion during his junior and senior seasons, was one of the chief instructors at the camp, which included local athletes as

Matt Oss, a rising sophomore at Skyline High School in Sammamish and a third-year wrestler, said the chance to learn technique and life lessons from Nelson, Robinson and the rest of the coaches was an experience he wouldn't pass up.

the chase for safety, a which point Kimmel lost control of his yellow cycle and flew off the ramp into the creek bed below. His motorcycle was totaled. Eastside Fire and Rescue responded. Deputy Chief Wes Collins said Kimmel suffered a broken leg among other injuries. Kimmel was transported to Harborview with serious injuries. Attempting to flee/evade a trooper is a felony. Boukabou said if they'd just pulled over, they would only have been cited for speeding. Drugs and alcohol do not appear to be a factor. Troopers are still looking for the driver of the blue motorcycle. If you have any information call the State Patrol at 425401-7788.

What could have been a routine traffic stop turned into a high-speed chase, with a motorcyclist plunging 80-feet into the North Fork of Issaquah Creek Aug. 6. Washington State Patrol Trooper Karim Boukabou said another trooper was trying to pull two motorcyclists over for speeding at 82 mph, when they decided to flee instead. One motorcyclist on a blue bike increased speed to 140 mph and got away. The other motorcyclist, 22-year-old Jeffrey Kimmel of Newcastle, allegedly continued east, exiting at Highland Drive, weaving in and out of traffic, passing on shoulders, even passing the trooper. Boukabou said the trooper disengaged
DUI enforcement patrols to return Summer is a time for parties and picnics in the sun, but traffic safety officials are reminding drivers to not let a DUI ruin their fun. And, even though Washington legalized marijuana for adults 21 and older, it is still illegal and dangerous to drive under the influence of marijuana or alcohol, officials say. “Specifically, we want people to know that marijuana doubles the risk of a fatal crash,” said Darrin Grondel, Traffic Safety Commission director. “With new retail marijuana stores in the mix, we want to remind the public that prescription and over-the-counter drugs, as well as illegal and recreational drugs, can impair driving ability,” Grondel added.
That is why between Aug. 15 and Sept. 1 extra officers will be on our roads looking for drivers under the influence of alcohol, marijuana, or other drugs during the annual Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign. The Issaquah and Sammamish police departments will be participating in the enforcement action. Lt. Rob Sharpe, commander of the Washington State Patrol Impaired Driving Section, said that law enforcement has been arresting drugged drivers for a long time and will continue to identify and arrest drivers who make the poor choice to drive under the influence of marijuana, alcohol, or other drugs.

Twins Investment, c/o Steve Freeman, PO Box 15 Issaquah, WA 98027, is seeking coverage under the Washington State Department of Ecology’s Construction Stormwater NPDES and State Waste Discharge General Permit Associated with Construction Activities. The proposed 14.74 acre project, Twins Ridge, is located at 24411 NE 16th Street, in Redmond in King County. Approximately 12.43 acres will be disturbed for clearing and grading, and construction of stormwater facilities, roads, utilities, 59 detached single- family residential units and sidewalks. Stormwater will be conveyed to three underground vault facilities for water quality treatment and controlled release.
Treated stormwater from the site will be discharged to offsite wetlands which ultimately drain to the Allen Lake Outlet Tributary. Some proposed Best Management Practices (BMP) for this project includes mulching, dust control, silt fences, sediment pond, stabilized construction entrance, protection of storm drain inlets and drainage ditches. Any persons desiring to present their views to the Washington State Department of Ecology regarding this application, or interested in Ecology’s action on this application, may notify Ecology in writing no later than 30 days of the last date of publication of this notice. Ecology reviews public comments and considers whether discharges from this project would cause a measurable change in receiving water quality, and, if so, whether the project is necessary and in the overriding public interest according to Tier II antidegradation requirements under WAC 173-201A-320.
