Sammamish says Klahanie fiscal report is positive According to the city of Sammamish, if residents in the Klahanie annexation area vote to join the city, they will pay lower taxes and receive better services than they do now as part of unincorporated King County. In addition, no changes will be made to current Sammamish resident's taxes or services. "We're required as part of the annexation process to provide a fiscal analysis," City
Manager Ben Yazici said. "I'm happy to say the report didn't turn up anything that should give people heartburn." The fiscal analysis, conducted by Butkus Consulting, Inc., was presented to the Sammamish City Council on July 15. After counting additional operating expenditures against additional operating revenues, the city says that upon annexation, Sam-
mamish would likely net a positive balance of approximately $1.24 million a year. However, consultant Pete Butkus cautioned that the report did not include major capital expenditures. The city's commitment to spend at least $3 million on Issaquah-Fall City Road, for example, was not folded into the fiscal report numbers. "That's a corridor we want to improve for

Morgan Vanderwall says first trip was “life changing” BY KELLY MONTGOMERY ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Morgan Vanderwall was 12 when she first visited Uganda. “I don’t think I would be the person I am today if I hadn’t gone to Uganda in 2009,” she said. Vanderwall, a recent Skyline High School graduate, became intrigued when a family friend, who started a school in Uganda to honor her brother who had died of AIDS, organized a travel group to accompany her to the country. Vanderwall’s dad also was in Uganda, working through his own secular nonprofit called “Expressive Business Strategies,” which teaches people in Third World countries how to be successful with their businesses. Vanderwall said that when the opportunity came up, she knew she had to go. And so she did, spending approximately two weeks aiding in educational efforts with one of her best friends, Isabella, by her side. So when the summer of 2010 rolled around, Vanderwall became eager to get back to the country she fell in love with. The Vanderwall’s family friend constructed another team, and they went again for two weeks. In 2011, they went again. But in 2012, the family

Eager to get back, Vanderwall began researching mission groups and stumbled upon the Watoto Church and its “Global Missions Team.” For $2,200, not including her flight, Vanderwall could spend three weeks helping people in Uganda. She applied for the program, was accepted, and began raising money through GoFundMe.com. On July 2, Vanderwall took off for Uganda with the same friend she went with in 2009. “I have fallen in love with
the country every time I’ve gone,” Vanderwall said. The two spent their entire two-and-a-half weeks in Uganda with the children of Watoto Church, helping out wherever the could. The church is the biggest in Uganda, taking in children who have lost their parents due to disease, war or abandonment. They hire nannies, or “mammas,” who are often refugees themselves, to take care of the children and raise them until their ready to go off on their own. Vanderwall said the church works both ways, because the children are gaining a family, but the mothers are as well. “We would help the nannies
and mammas with whatever they needed to give them some relief during the day,” Vanderwall said. “It’s not like when we go over (to Uganda) we’re the first white people they’ve ever seen. It’s one of the most typical countries that people go to do mission work, but I don’t think they take anything for granted.” Vanderwall said that even something as simple as changing a diaper means the world to them, and that the people she’s interacted with over the years are some of the most joyful and welcoming people she’s ever met in her life.

Emergency ordinance sets interim drainage regulations BY KELLY MONTGOMERY ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
As more and more lots continue to be developed in the city of Sammamish, residents have become increasingly concerned with the drainage system along Inglewood Hill Road. So much so, that at the July 15 meeting, the City Council passed an emergency ordinance featuring significantly tighter requirements for the 160 acres on both sides of the steep arterial. "Many of these small lots along Inglewood Hill Road drain into landslide hazard areas," City Manager Ben Yazici said. "Now that the economy has picked up and we're seeing a lot more development, we took what we think was a very necessary step." The old standards required a review of drainage plans if the new building featured 2,000 square feet of impervious surface or more. The emergency ordinance drops that threshold to 500 square feet. Although the
regulations took immediate effect, they will be subject to a public hearing on Sept. 2. "We want to hear from all stakeholders in the Inglewood Hill Road area," Yazici said. "Our planning commission will be looking at this issue later this year, and the council will do the same in 2015. We would like to put permanent, wellthought-out regulations in place no later than next year." The city has also budgeted $250,000 for the design of a pipe system that would safely transfer storm water down the slope of Inglewood Hill Road. If constructed, it would allow many of the new buildings in the area to funnel runoff into the central system. For more information, contact Eric LaFrance at 425-295-0562 or elafrance@ sammamish.us.

SCHOOLS
‘Failing’ schools can be fixed, but are we up to the task?
I
f you have kids in school, you should have received a letter from the state telling you that your particular school district is failing. That’s not really true, but thanks to the state Legislature and the stubborn state teachers union, most school districts in our state don’t meet the requirements of the federal No Child Left Behind act. The act requires that all students pass state reading and math tests. The state sought a waiver, but teachers balked at the requirement that test scores be part of their evaluation process. Having all students pass reading and math tests might be achievable, but given the funds our state allocates to education and the reluctance of voters to OK more money for schools, it isn’t going to happen. It’s not that all kids can’t learn. It’s just that all kids don’t learn at the same pace. If you remember your school days, you’ll recall that some students zipped through the daily lessons and got top grades at the end of the school year. Others – most of us – did OK in the classroom, passed the tests and got our diploma. The rest of the students essentially crashed and burned. In all likelihood, those kids just needed more time. But time costs money. Not all parents can afford private tutoring for their kids. So, if it’s important that students pass reading and math tests – and the feds say it is – then we need to give schools more money to provide that extra time and instruction. The Legislature already faces a state court order to adequately fund education. Lawmakers could reallocate state money from other state programs and agencies. But that only hobbles the state’s efforts to provide other needed services. Doing things right takes money. The Legislature – and taxpayers – need to consider what that really means. And then step up to the task and do it. – Craig Groshart, Issaquah and Sammamish Reporter

SR 900 lights need another look
Yes, perhaps my previous letter had not fully explored the situation for synchronizing the lights on SR 900. Nevertheless, considerable improvement in traffic control through the Issaquah portion of SR 900 is sorely needed. And, after numerous phone conversations with WSDOT and the city of Issaquah, I continue to be of the opinion the lights could be much better programmed and synchronized. While the basic control of the lights remains with WSDOT, there is a level of cooperation with the city, particularly with regard the the cross streets – Gilman, Maple and Newport Way. The city does retain a measure of control over the cross street lights. Based on my conversations with WSDOT, the representative did agree that there had been no review of that part of the corridor for some time and that another review might be considered. They also indicated that there had been no requests from the city for any review or assistance to improve the situation within the last two years, despite a substantial increase in traffic.

8th District needs better representation
As a Washington resident, but above all a citizen of the United States, I am ashamed to bare witness to the state of disrepair our nation’s House of Representatives had fallen into. House republicans and their lawsuit fiasco serve as a perfect example of how constituents like you and me and the real issues this nation faces are put onto the back burner in favor of political vendettas. I am especially ashamed to have a representative of my own state, Dave Reichert, play into the hands of Tea Party radicals and vote to authorize the law suit. A decade in office and all that Reichert can seem to do is set our nation on a backwards path with his policies that could be described as anything but moderate.

Community and Aquatic Center begins to take shape Among other amenities, the new center will include: • Leisure pool • Six-lane, 25-yard lap pool • Two gymnasiums • Cardio and group fitness area • Elevated jogging track • Weight lifting area • Locker rooms • Child watch area • Multi-purpose rooms • Meeting rooms The winning bid for the job, from Porter Brothers Construction of Edgewood, was $25,574,258. With sales tax, design, demolition, construction contingencies and other expenses, the total project cost comes to $33,885,000. Although the Sammamish Community and Aquatic Center will be owned by the city, day-to-day operations will be
handled by the YMCA. As part of their partnership with the city, the Y will contribute $5 million toward construction, equip the facility and cover all operating expenses. “Partnering with the Y fits with our overall approach as a city,” Yazici said. “Instead of hiring a bunch of people to run the community center, we’ll rely on the Y’s operational expertise.” Yazici said the city does the same thing with King County for its police services and Eastside Fire and Rescue for fire services. “We contract or partner with outside entities, obtain great services and keep our city staff small at the same time,” he said. Following approximately 18 months of construction, the new building is expected to open in early 2016.

The event also raises money and awareness for the rescue and promotion of responsible ownership for pit bull type dogs. “The proliferation of misinformation out there surrounding pit bulls has led to a lot of negative attention in recent years, and we created this event to show the community the positive side of Pit Bulls – the side those who know and love them see every day,” said Lorrie Kalmbach-Ehlers, president and co-founder of BullsEye Dog Rescue.

Pang helps Eastside FC to 3rd place finish at US Youth Soccer National Championships The girls 98 Red team from Eastside FC finished its season at the US Youth Soccer National Championships for the second straight season, bringing home a third place finish after winning the title in 2013. Eastside FC won its first match, 2-1 over Alliance Academy 99 Black of Michigan, before falling 3-1 to YMS Premier Xplosion of Pennsylvania in a rematch of last year's championship. A 1-1 draw with Legends FC of California sent Eastside to the semifinals, before a 1-0 loss in the second overtime ended their hopes for a repeat national title. Kaylene Pang, a rising sophomore at Issaquah High School and one of four area players on the team, earned Best 11 honors for her performance. Pang said after competing
with the same group of girls since elementary school, the chance to get back to Nationals was one she relished. "Everyone is ready to sacrifice for each other, and that has been so important," she said. It is the main reason for our success and makes it so much more fun." The only Issaquah Eagle on the team, Pang is club teammates with a trio of rival Skyline Spartans in Cameron Tingey, Molly Monroe and Alexa Kirton. She said the chance to add a new chapter to the IssaquahSkyline rivalry is one of the most anticipated elements of the upcoming prep season. "The rivalry is huge," she said. "It is so big for the school and just fun to be a part of." Issaquah has missed the state tournament only once in the past decade, and captured three state championships, finishing as the 4A state runner-up in

The Spartans have been shutout of state only three times since the year 2000, and took home back-to-back state crowns in 2011 and 2012.

Dozens of golfers left the Golf Fore Red women's tournament, held July 26, with hard-won lucre. But The Hope Heart Institute may have been the tournament's biggest winner, to the tune of $25,000 for women's cardiovascular health programs. The Bellevue-based nonprofit pursues research into prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease. Its Women Take Heart program provides education on heart disease and how it manifests in women. Heart disease kills a quarter of American women, according to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. The tournament saw three professional golfers volunteer: Lyndsey Devenish, Erin Menath and Kathy Wake. This was the seventh year of the Golf Fore Red tournament, held at The Golf Club of Redmond Ridge. It began as a tribute to the mothers of cofounders Shelley French and Mary Robinson. The tournament has partnered with The Hope Heart Institute for the past three years on the latter organization's Women Take Heart event, held in February.

The city of Sammamish Teen Fest started summer with a bang in June as skaters from all over the Greater Seattle area came together to put on some of the greatest runs the Sammamish Park has seen. Skaters varied in age and talent, with a 6-year-old competing as well as some sponsored skaters. Organizers said they see many skaters who return year after year and the show only gets better. And prizes from industry sponsors made skater’s efforts well rewarded. On-sight support came from Boardshop 5420, BC Surf and Sport, BFC and Advocare. Raffles were a hit for spectators and skaters alike, proving that even onlookers are winners at Teen Fest. “I wouldn’t miss this event” said Austin Fischer, a multi-year returning skater, who brought his wife and newborn baby girl to cheer him on. After a switch blunt side on the slant bank, he went on to win best trick and a $50 gift card from Zumiez. He also won second place in the sponsored division. “It’s truly a day when the skate community can come together and celebrate the wonderfully creative family we are,” said Lynne Handlos, recreation coordinator. “Music in the park finished off a wonderful day for young and old alike.”

area would constitute 13.82 percent of the city's total assessed valuation. • There are 8.65 people per acre in the annexation area. There are 3.48 people per acre in Sammamish. • In November 2005, a majority of Klahanie area voters expressed a desire to annex to Issaquah, but on a related ballot issue they declined to assume their share of Issaquah's existing voter-approved debt. Given that, Issaquah decided not to annex the area. • In November 2013, a slight majority of Klahanie area residents declined to be annexed to Issaquah. • The fiscal report says Sammamish would add six police officers to its current staff if the annexation took place. •Deficient street conditio ns in the annexation area caused by long-term deferred maintenance will require deep patching and asphalt overlays. • The King County Road Levy, currently paid by Klahanie area residents, will
disappear upon annexation. The city will assume responsibility for planning, design and maintenance of all public roadway in the annexation area. • King County Fire Protection District No. 10 levies a property tax and a "fire benefit service charge" in the Klahanie annexation area. These would no longer be collected in the event of annexation. • The city of Sammamish does not have a utility tax or a business and occupation tax. • On a $500,000 home, Klahanie area residents would pay $421 less in property taxes after annexation to Sammamish. Yazici suggested that those interested should read the report for themselvesas it has a lot of valuable information.

15 artist-designed bike racks set for historic Issaquah There are now more places to park a bike in historic downtown Issaquah. In all, 15 artistdesign bike racks are being installed throughout Olde Town. The designs for the racks include concentric ripples in the water of a rocky creek, the spiraling fiddlehead of a fern and the concentric spirals of the human fingerprint. “In creating art for Issaquah's bike rack project, I wanted to support the city's goal of sustainability by promoting and celebrating Issaquah residents’ connection to their natural world,” bike rack artist Kathleen Frugé-Brown said on the city's website. “To accomplish this, I sought images that would provide both a strong sense of place, and an inclusive reminder of viewers’
