City opts for study sessions BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
If you want to know where things are at with the planning process for Les Gove Park, how Auburn spends its dollars, what it is doing about its streets or a myriad of other matters,
up to now all you’ve had to do was sit in on one of the twice-monthly City Council subcommittee meetings. There you’d hear small groupings of Auburn’s elected leaders – three councilmembers and often the may-
or – hash out issues with City staff, weeks or even months in advance of any Council vote. For more than 40 years, such has been the order of things at City Hall, the way ordinances and resolutions [ more SESSIONS page 7 ]

Coalition to honor Sen. Fain FOR THE REPORTER
SCOUT NIGHT The Valley Regional Fire Authority recently hosted its fifth annual Scout Night at Station 34 on Auburn’s Lea Hill. Scouts toured the building and learned about fire safety practices, basic first aid training, cooking safety and knot tying. They received information on how to be prepared for a disaster. Firefighters and experts provided information on how to make their homes safe, test their smoke alarms and change the batteries, treat minor injuries, and how to design and practice a home escape plan.

The Washington Coalition for Open Government presents its 2014 Ballard/ Thompson Award to Senate Majority Floor Leader Joe Fain (R-Auburn, 47th District) on Jan. 26 in Olympia. The award honors a state legislator who demonstrated outstanding dedication to the cause of open government during the previous legislative session. The coalition honors Fain for being the prime sponsor of ESB 5964, which mandates that most elected officials (except legislators) and public records officers receive training at least every four years on records retention, disclosure and public meetings. Fain shepherded the bill through the legislative process, where it was passed and signed by Gov. Jay Inslee. The award is named in recognition of former Speaker of the House Clyde Ballard and former Chief Clerk of the House and Senator Alan Thompson. Ballard, a Republican, and Thompson, a Democrat, were champions of open government in the legislature, as well as founding directors of the Washington Coalition for Open Government. The coalition also holds its first WCOG Legislative Day in Olympia that day. For more details, visit www.washingtoncog.org or call 206-782-0393.

City leaders ponder replacement of county’s aged emergency-radio system BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
Project completed
King County Flood District Supervisor Pete von Reichbauer, left, Auburn Mayor Nancy Backus and Lorin Reinelt, managing engineer, recently gathered to discuss improvements made to the Reddington levee. District and City officials recently celebrated the completion of the project, an enhanced levee that will protect hundreds of homes and businesses near the Green River in Auburn for decades. Over the last 16 months, the leaky, old, constrictive levee was demolished and a new levee, farther back from the river, was built. The new levee makes room for flood flows to fan out and lose their erosive force, while creating areas for improved fish and wildlife habitat. COURTESY PHOTO
THE CITY OF ENUMCLAW recently announced that it will contribute $10,000 to help the Auburn Public Health Center and its satellite office’s doors stay open for the next two years. The center provides health services to 11,000 clients, every year 97 percent of whom live below the federal poverty line. The Public Health – Seattle & King County staff primarily provides maternity services, nutrition programs and family planning. The clinic had been identified for closure because of declines in state and federal funding. King County and the City of Auburn have put together public and private partnerships that will contribute in total between $550,000 and $700,000 to help maintain services at the Auburn clinic through the 2015-16 biennium.
Police, fire and emergency responders rely every day on King County’s emergencyradio system. But as of now, the 20-year-old system is tired, badly outdated and must be replaced. In fact, the Motorola Company has already told King County that after 2017, it will no Heid longer support the system. In addition to new equipment, King County would like to replace today’s multiple networks with a single network, thereby putting all the groups now taking advantage of King County’s Valley Com – that is, King County, the cities of Auburn, Kent, Tukwila, Federal Way and Renton, the eastside cities, and the City of Seattle – under one umbrella. Making that happen will 276469_4.75_x_6 10/16/14 take a lot of cooperation
among those entities. And of course, multiple millions of dollars. And while King County expects to put a bond issue out to taxpayers sometime next April, it is too early in the game to say exactly how much it will ask. As Auburn City Attorney Dan Heid told City leaders Monday at City Hall, the pressing need now is for all the user groups to agree on the details of the pending agreement in order to set up the operational end of things. “We’ve set this up so the mayor can negotiate the final terms because we’re running out of time,” Heid said. “If King County really wants to be successful in getting this before the voters, time is of the absolute essence.” Two boards would in charge of the nonprofit: an administrative board, made up of mayors and the chief executive officers of the dif5:09 PM Page 1 ferent cities; and a technical
board, constituted of police and fire chiefs and other user groups. All entities would participate, but there would be only one representative from the south side of the county, one speaking for the eastside cities, one for King County and one from Seattle. “Right now, it’s what side of the risk do you want to be on,” said Auburn Mayor Nancy Backus. “Do you want to be out in front – which is what King County is proposing right now – so that once Motorola no longer supports the current system, we’re under way with the new system? But if you were to wait and the bond doesn’t pass in April, then you would have to decide when it next goes on the ballot. Then you would have to decide how much risk are you willing to accept before the radios basically don’t work any more.” “Then it’s not an option,” said City Councilman Bill Peloza. “No,” Backus said.

A U.S. District Court jury in Seattle has convicted a 43-year-old Auburn man of sex trafficking, including pimping a 15-year-old girl he met in 2013. Nathan James Bonds was convicted last Friday of two counts of sex trafficking of a juvenile and two counts of transportation of a juvenile to engage in prostitution, according to a U.S. Attorney’s Office media release. Bonds trolled neighborhoods in South King County looking for teenage girls to recruit into prostitution. The jury deliberated for five hours following a fourday trial. U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour set a Feb. 10 sentencing date. Sex trafficking of juveniles is punishable by a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years, and up to life imprisonment. According to records in the case and testimony at trial, Bonds was parked outside a Kent convenience

Bonds manipulated the girl into accompanying him to a hotel room where he raped her. Over the next few days, Bonds coerced the girl into working for him as a prostitute, convincing her she had no other options. The Auburn man advertised the girl on Backpage. com and made her give him all of the money she earned from prostitution acts. He also recruited the girl’s 17-year-old friend to work for him as a prostitute. On April 19, 2013, Bonds transported the two teens and a drug-addicted, homeless woman whom he had also manipulated into working for him as a prostitute, to Portland to engage in prostitution. Bonds forced the two teens to take sexually explicit photographs and then used some of those photographs to advertise them on Backpage.com. The 15-year-old girl estimated she had sex in exchange for money with at least 10 men.

He then called up short-haul truckers and had his co-conspirators fill up the trucks at fueling stations in exchange for cash. Detectives connected more than 1,000 fraudulent credit card transactions to Ram, who also possessed a credit card scanning device and a large amount of cash when the Washington State Patrol searched his home in 2012.

GUEST OP
We must make sure women live without fear I am the father of 6-year-old twins. My wife, Colleen, and I want to raise a son who respects women, and a daughter who lives in a world where she is respected and free from violence. In September 2014, NFL football star Ray Rice’s assault on his then-fiancée, captured on video, received significant media attention and brought to national awareness the unfortunate prevalence of domestic violence in our society. The statistics are sobering. An estimated one-in-four women experience rape, physical assault or stalking in the context of a relationship or a date. The Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence reports that 35 people were killed in Washington state last year as a result of domestic violence. Overwhelmingly, these tragedies are the result of men’s violence against women. They include the woman strangled and beaten by her boyfriend and the mother murdered by her daughter’s ex-boyfriend. These are our mothers, sisters, daughters and friends. When violence against women makes the headlines, people often ask: “Why does she stay?” But this question wrongly places the burden on the victim. It is time to stop asking “why does she stay?” and instead ask “why is he violent?” October was Domestic Violence Awareness Month. I am committed to leading an office that works to eliminate violence against women. Our work with stakeholders has helped pass legislation to punish offenders and empower survivors. We dedicate grant dollars to local advocacy organizations that provide services to survivors in rural communities. Our work will continue. We can all do our part. Speak up when someone tells inappropriate jokes or stories. If you learn your female friends or family members are experiencing violence, let them know you are there to help. Teach your children to respect themselves and others. Do not tolerate domestic violence. Together we can make a difference for the women in our lives. When women live without fear, our whole society benefits.

Walmart needs to step up, support center In the Nov. 7 edition, King County, partners to keep the Auburn Public Health Center open and several partner contributions are mentioned with the City of Auburn, the Muckleshoot Tribe and Group Health all contributing $100,000 or more. It is very disappointing that one of our city’s primary beneficiaries did not contribute. Reporting Walmart’s reliance on public programs, including medical care, food stamps and subsidized housing to support their employees whose wages cannot support them, on April 15, 2014, Forbes said, “… a single Walmart Supercenter cost taxpayers between $904,542 and $1.75 million per year, or between $3,015 and $5,815 on average, for each of 300 workers.” It seems Walmart should have a vested interest in keeping the medical clinic open. Maybe they will give their employees bus passes to go to Seattle? If they really need medical care, I doubt they are in any condition to walk that far. – Bob Zimmerman
Threat hits close to home I am concerned about a threat that was made against Cascade Middle School. My grandson attends that school.
Letters policy The Auburn Reporter welcomes letters to the editor on any subject. Letters must include a name, address and daytime phone number for verification purposes. Letters may be edited for length. Letters should be no more than 250 words in length. Submissions may be printed both in the paper and electronically. Deadline for letters to be considered for publication is 2 p.m. Tuesday. Whatever the threat was, it was supposed to take effect on Monday, Nov. 10. Why has this not been publicized? With all the shootings taking place should this not be made public? Green River Community College and Auburn Riverside High School had been threatened in the not-so-distant past. This is getting too close to home. My daughter is keeping my grandson home until after Veterans Day. – Linda Menster
Pulling for Cullen in his fight Just wish to say a short comment on your story, “Show of Steele: Boy fights back from surgery,” in your Nov. 7 issue. I think it’s a profoundly, wellwritten, happy story, and I was touched by it. I know Cullen. He was an altar server for many years
at the Holy Family Catholic Church of Auburn. I used to be a lector in that church for many years also, and when reciting the prayer intentions for that Sunday Mass when I am scheduled to lector, I would mention his name among those parishioners who need prayers. I did this for many, countless Sundays. Six years of suffering was a long battle indeed for Cullen. But those prayers worked. I believe it was a miracle, and I am happy for him, for his family, especially for his mom, Colleen. Thank you. – Jesse Jose
Helping a boy in need Thanks for the Nov. 7 article updating our community on the progress of Cullen Steele, who is making great progress, three months after a heart, double-lung transplant. What the article doesn’t mention is the role that The Auburn Reporter played in bringing our community behind Cullen and his family. In order to get on the transplant list, he needed to raise $75,000 to cover expenses. Many people put together fundraising events and made personal donations during the year-long drive to raise that money. And the Auburn Reporter helped publicize them and make it happen. The people of Auburn and its newspaper at their best. – Dennis Brooke

Museum presents juried art show and sale FOR THE REPORTER
The White River Valley Museum – in partnership with the City Auburn Arts Commission – presents the eighth annual Small Works Big Presents: The Gift of Art. The juried show and sale opens Tuesday, Nov. 18 and continues through Dec. 14, just in time for purchasers to bring items home for the holidays. The show has grown to represent high quality works of fine art
[ JOLLYOLOGIST from page 1 ] On its reverse, a poem: “Pop a bubble, sigh a sigh, watch your stress go flying by. If one bubble doesn’t do, try six or eight or 22.” And she’s sure to launch into a ditty or five, like, “Be your sunshine,” her take on “You Are My Sunshine.” “I don’t sing all that great,” Shoemaker concedes to her listeners. ”God didn’t say we had to sing great, he just told us to make a joyful noise.” So it should come as no mystery that after years of planting grins on faces that had almost forgotten how to wear them, companioning the lonely and talking to them, Shoemaker has worked up a devoted following, from
and crafts from throughout the Northwest. Jurors selected 77 works of art from a field of 400 or so pieces for the exhibit. The jurors are: Margaret Bullock, curator of collections and special exhibitions at the Tacoma Art Museum; Aaron Hartzell, instructor of photography at Green River Community College; and Colleen Maloney, member of Auburn Arts Commission. A wide variety of media are represented, including: mosaic, Seattle’s Virginia Mason Hospital to Avalon Care Center in Federal Way and points in between. Hers is a volunteer, no-pay gig. “I call it my ministry for lack of knowing what else to call it,” Shoemaker said recently. “I just try to make people happy and bring joy to them. … Like, if they’re in the hospital, I go and visit them. … I’ve just always loved old people. Even as a little girl, I would go to convalescent homes.” There are no doctors in the area like Shoemaker — even she is not a doctor. And don’t bother trying to pry from her the obscure university that bestowed on her head that degree in jollyology … she made the word up.
painting, encaustic, printmaking, jewelry, sculpture, ceramics and textile arts. All told, 122 artists from Washington, Idaho and Oregon entered, with 18 percent of their submissions making it into the show. Sizable cash awards will be announced at the show opening, and during the first two weeks visitors are encouraged to cast their vote for the People’s Choice Award. The Auburn Arts Commission and 4Culture are sponsoring the exhibit. “It started out with friends who had life-threatening illnesses, and I had no way to help them,” Shoemaker said. “They were far away. So I came up with this idea of being a jollyologist, and I would do it by email every day. People have proctologists, rhinologists, everything else, why not a jollyologist? I would write to my friends something really outrageously funny, really bad blog jokes and some really stupid things.” From there, she was onto a card ministry. “How many times do you get a bright card in the mail anymore?” Shoemaker asked. Then, about 2 1/2 years ago, Shoemaker met in a hospital Bree, a little girl suffering with tumors behind her eyes and ears, and on

And I started coming out in costumes, and from there it just grew and grew.” She’s active in other ways. Recently, she was the Auburn Valley YMCA Kids Day doctor. She has raised money for the Mary Bridge Hospital Oncology Department Visa Courage Program. Recently she debuted a song at a meeting of the Washington Chapter of Activities Directors.

asked me what I did," Shoemaker said. "I got a chance to tell them that I go to visit old folks and try to make their days happy. That’s my biggest thing. There are people who never get any visitors. “What it’s about,” she said, “is trying to inspire people to go and visit older people. And you learn things from there. I go out with people thinking I’m serving, and I come back, and I’m the one that has the big lump of love in her heart.

[ DEMO from page 1 ] and two-bedroom, twobath apartments. Renderings of Merrill Gardens at Auburn show a U-shaped building with a center-landscaped courtyard, part of the courtyard accessible to the public, facing South Division. One entrance will be off First Street Southeast and the second off Second Street Southeast. City officials estimate construction could start sometime next spring. In 2007, the Economic Development Administration awarded the City a $2.2 million federal grant and a $7.2 million local revitalization bond that upgraded streets, sidewalks and utilities to support such construction on South Division. City officials estimate that between them, the Trek
[ SESSIONS from page 1 ] have made their way to the full council. But this long-established way of doing business is officially on the way out. To improve how it operates, the City Council last week dropped the subcommittee format in favor of general study sessions. The upshot is that by January, all seven councilmembers will be present at study sessions, hearing what they would have heard in the subcommittees, except that all of them will hear it at the same time. Former Councilmember Virginia Haugen, who had criticized this change in the belief that it would create less transparency, now appears to be willing to give it a try. “Yes, I am against getting rid of the committee system, but if we have a plan that will give us absolute transparency, if we can talk about issues in a fair and democratic way,
Crews begin to demolish a building on the Gambini block off South Division between First and Second streets southeast. Plans are to build a four-story retirement community in its place. ROBERT WHALE, Reporter Apartment retail project on the former Cavanaugh block on East Main and the Merrill Gardens project on South Division will bring 300-500 new residents to the downtown core. According to its website, Merrill Gardens, a privately-owned, family-run company, owns and operates 21 senior living communities in four states with a focus
on lifestyle. Each Merrill Gardens community is different in physical structure, reflecting the characteristics of the area where it is and the needs of its residents. Teutsch Partners, LLC was formed in 1987 as a privately-owned, regionally-focused, commercial real estate services and development company.
and if we can make decisions that make this community a better place to live, then I will accept what this council decides to do,” Haugen said before the unanimous vote. Deputy Mayor Rich Wagner later explained the City Council’s reasoning. “The City Council at its retreat last April discussed the efficiency, and transparency and quality of the decisions that come out of the committee system, which has been in place in the City for about 40 years, submitted by former Council member Bud Larson. For that time, it was a great way to do business, and we will try to carry into the study sessions the best parts of the committee system while bringing forward new things like televising the sessions. We now have improvements in efficiencies for staff, so they’ll only have to make presentations to one group instead of two or three. And it will give all of the council members
the opportunity to hear the same thing at the same time, and that will likely improve the quality of our decisions,” Wagner said. “All of us on this dais are going to hear the same staff report,” said Councilmember Bill Peloza. “There’s not going to be one committee where you hear one thing and then staff, they’re tired of talking about it and they go to another committee and it may be skewed a little bit. But that I think is normal. This change has a huge potential for reduced costs for the taxpayer once we get this thing all ironed out.” One consideration is the state’s Open Public Meetings Act. Today, if two councilmembers serve on the same subcommittee, they cannot legally talk to each other about the issues outside of the meetings. By going to the study session format, three council members can talk about an issue without violating the Open Public Meetings Act.

all of them. “It looked simple to the people looking at (the race), but it wasn’t,” Roach said. ”It was a serious twoon-one.” Roach’s allusion was to State Rep. Chris Hurst, a conservative Democrat from Enumclaw, who worked with Dahlquist on her campaign. Roach questioned Dahlquist’s conservative ways with her ties to Hurst. Dahlquist questioned Roach’s abrasive personality, which she claimed had damaged her working relationships in the Legislature. Dahlquist offered change and a smoother working environment with Democrats. In the end, Roach said, she prevailed on the strength of her record and the support of several groups, notably unions and business leaders. She said she intends to get right back to work and address state budgetary matters, especially their potential affect on education.

High schools to host Oregon Shakespeare Festival actors FOR THE REPORTER
Auburn Mountainview and Auburn high schools host Oregon Shakespeare Festival actors Keith Leroyal and Eduardo Placer on Nov. 21 and 24–25, as part of the festival’s School Visit Program. In addition to interactive workshops, the actors will perform excerpts from Shakespeare’s works and
other classical and contemporary literature in an assembly setting. In November and December, teams of actors will tour schools throughout Oregon, Washington, California and Kansas, engaging students from diverse backgrounds through live performances and active workshops. OSF founder Angus Bowmer created the School
Visit Program in 1971 to reach a wider audience, and over the past 43 years OSF has reached more than 2 million students in more than 7,000 schools in 12 Western states. In addition, a dozen schools from Oregon are part of the School Visit Partnership Program, which provides teachers with professional development and classroom
lessons. Actors are also in residence at partnership schools for two to five days, depending on the size of the school. “Behind the School Visit Program lies the belief that actors, great literature and the imagination of the audience are all the ingredients needed to make captivating theatre,” said Joan Langley, OSF director of education. “An essential goal of the

Chapman to attend Congress of Future Medical Leaders Brianna Chapman, a sophomore at Auburn Mountainview High School, has been nominated to attend the Congress of Future Medical Leaders this weekend in Washington, D.C. The Congress is an honors-only program for high school students who want to become physicians or go into medical research fields. Dr. Connie Mariano, medical director of the National Academy of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists, nominated Chapman. Chapman will join students from throughout the country and hear Nobel

She also will be given advice from Ivy League and top medical school deans on what is expected in medical school; hear stories told by patients who are living medical miracles; be inspired by fellow teen medical prodigies; and learn about cutting-edge advances and the future of medicine and medical technology. “This experience is a dream come true for any hopeful medical student like myself,” Chapman said. “My hope to become a doctor … was embedded in my mind since I was a child. But it wasn’t until last year when I truly understood my passion for medical sciences.”

Auburn Symphony Orchestra to perform weekend concerts FOR THE REPORTER
The Auburn Symphony Orchestra is taking its act on the road. The orchestra presents Old World Masters, its first chamber concert in Kent on Friday. The concert begins at 7 p.m. at The First Christian Church of Kent, 11717 SE 240th, Kent. The concert is sponsored in part by the Kent Arts Commission. Four members of the Auburn Symphony offer standard works that are at the core of the chamber repertoire.
Also known as “The American Quartet,” Dvorak’s String Quartet in F Major was written when the composer was in the United States in the early 1890s. Haydn’s String Quartet in D Major is primarily referred to as The Lark because of the violin’s high bird-like melody at the very beginning. And Mozart’s String Quartet in B Flat Major is known as The Hunt because the music in the first movement is said to evoke the sound and the mood of the chase. In addition, the orchestra kicks off its chamber series
Sunday, featuring six of its outstanding musicians performing major works by Mozart and Schoenberg. The concert, A Lot of Night Music, begins at 4 p.m. at St. Matthew Episcopal Church, 123 L St. NE, Auburn. Mozart’s famous and light-hearted Eine Kleine Nachtmusik is “supreme entertainment on an artistic level that only Mozart could attain” while his Viola Quintet in G Minor is “startlingly dramatic and vivid in both personality and form.” Schoenberg’s
is led by Stewart Kershaw, internationally-renowned conductor and former music director of the Pacific Northwest Ballet Orchestra. The concert is spon-

The mile-long parade, one of the largest of its kind in the country, featured more than 200 units, military vehicles, veterans units and honor guards, in addition to more than 30 high school marching bands. Spectators also enjoyed the procession of drill teams, and community and scouting groups, intermixed with floats, antique and classic cars and other entries of interest.

The Lions (9-1) advance to play at Shadle Park (7-3) of Spokane in a first-round state playoff Saturday. Kickoff is at 1 p.m. at Joe Albi Stadium. “It feels pretty good, it feels awesome,” coach Jared Gervais said. “We talked about it. We always try to make history, that’s kind of our motto,” junior quarterback Gresch Jensen added. “So it feels real good to get out here and get the win.” After the Grizzlies (6-4) took the lead in the first quarter, Jensen and the Lions responded with the next four scores. Jensen found senior Gavin

NO STOPPING THE RAVENS REPORTER STAFF
Top-ranked Auburn Riverside rallied from two games down to outlast Columbia River and capture the 3A West Central District/Southwest bi-district tournament volleyball title at Auburn Mountainview High School last Saturday. Game scores were 23-25, 24-26, 25-9, 25-9, 15-9. The Ravens (15-0-1) open the state tournament against Seattle Prep at 11:45 a.m. Friday in Lacey. Kasey Holand produced 20 kills and Precious Atafua finished with 18 for the Ravens. Carson Heilborn distributed 50 assists.

Jensen put a bow on the win with a 1-yard TD run in the fourth quarter. “We’ve seen them play twice in person, so we were kind of ready for them,” Gervais said. “We weren’t quite expecting what they did defensively though, so we took a little more advantage by throwing down the field a little more. We thought we could throw the ball and score some points that way. And we shut them down defensively. They’re a pretty good team. It was fun to throw the ball around a little after a year of not doing it as much.” Jensen finished the game with 24-of45 passing for 317 yards and four TDs. He also had eight rushes for 21 yards and TD. Robertson had nine catches for 138 yards and two touchdowns, and Lacey had three receptions for 29 yards and a TD. Nate Hardin had a team-high 39 yards on eight carries. “Scoring drive after drive in the first half made the difference,” Gervais said. “The special teams are getting better, the offensive did good, and the defense came up big a couple plays and shut them down all game. All around it was a great team effort.” Senior Jason Sele led the way defensively with 11 tackles. ALSO: Auburn’s season ended with a 30-7 loss to Meadowdale in a state 3A quad-district playoff game at Edmonds Stadium last Friday. The Trojans finished the season 6-4. Auburn was unable to crack the Mavericks’ defense, finding itself shut out of the end zone until the fourth quarter when junior quarterback Justin Iomio ran the ball in from 12 yards out.

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.
