Public works balancing $37M in capital projects
BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
It’s time for Klahanie residents to make a choice, which will determine the future for nearly 11,000 citizens. The vote to annex Klahanie, an unincorporated planned community on the Sammamish Plateau, into the city of Sammamish is on the April 28 special election ballot; if residents vote “yes” city officials boast benefits for Klahanie and Sammamish citizens. If annexed, Klahanie residents would have lower tax rates and receive more services; the city of Sammamish expects to gain $1.4 million annually, after subtracting additional operational costs. The city boast the additional revenue would
go into improving Issaquah-Fall City Road. The city already committed $3 million to improving the road, but this would only scratch the surface needed for the estimated $23 million project. “Many of our residents have a tough commute along Issaquah-Fall City Road,” Yazici said in a press release earlier this year. “Improving that corridor has been on our radar for a long time. Fortunately, if the Klahanie area votes in favor of the annexation, that added revenue we’ll receive will make those improvements very affordable.” If annexed, the Sammamish property tax rate, which is lower than the county’s, would apply to the area. A Klahanie resident with a $500,00 home would see property tax decrease by $420 annually, according to Butkus Consulting Inc., who the city contracted with in June 2014 to write a financial report regarding the potential annexation. If Klahanie residents vote to annex the tax decrease could take effect as early as 2016, depending on how quickly the council approves the annexation. If annexed, the Sammamish Police Department,
The Sammamish Public Works’ team is busy monitoring and developing about $36.7 million in capital projects. Director Laura Philpot outlined several smaller projects and eight major projects, focusing on engineering rather than the maintenance side of things, for the Sammamish City Council on April 7. The council identified these projects either during comprehensive plan discussions, the budget process or the January council retreat. Improvements to Sahalee Way and Snake Hill (212th Way Southeast) are the two most expensive projects, at $16.6 million and $9 million respectively. Most projects will break ground (or at least award a construction contract) by 2016, but construction to Sahalee Way will likely not break ground for two or more years.

Front St. overpass needs $1.2 M repair BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
A damaged girder on the Interstate 90 Front Street overpass will require a replacement later this year, according to the results of an investigation by state-employed bridge engineers in the aftermath of a March 13 accident. More than one month ago, the hydraulically lifted bed of a truck owned by city waste services contractor Recology Cleanscapes collided with the overpass, sending the driver to the hospital and prompting a bridge inspection from the Washington

Ramos announces intent to run for Iss. City Council Position 4 incumbent Joshua Schaer says he will not seek reelection Issaquah human services commission chair Bill Ramos announced on Monday he would run for position No. 4 on the city council, currently held by Joshua Schaer. Ramos, the owner of transportation and public transit consulting firm The Common Good LLC, has served on the human services commission for seven years. He is additionally a member of the economic vitality commission and the planning and policy commission. City commissions discuss municipal issues and advise city councils on potential courses of action and outcomes from votes. “I believe in looking at all the problems, concerns and issues, discussing them fully and making clear, open and well thought out decisions to help the Issaquah [sic] move forward and continue to be the best city we can be,” Ramos wrote in a media release. Of his consulting experience, he wrote: “I understand how transportation and transit projects receive funding and can bring my expertise in transportation planning and financing to the City as we work on improving our traffic issues.” Incumbent councilmember Schaer, an attorney, announced last week he would not run for re-election in November. He has served on the city council since 2008. Councilmember Nina Milligan likewise announced in a letter to the editor submitted to the Issaquah Press that she would not run in the fall. Ramos’ last attempt at joining the city council was in January 2013, seeking an appointment to the seat vacated by Mark Mullet after Mullet was elected to the Washington state Senate. The appointment was given to Mary Lou Pauly, who was reelected in the November 2013 general election. Daniel Nash: 425-391-0363 ext. 5052; dnash@issaquahreporter.com

State Department of Transportation. The immediately apparent damage to the bridge from the accident was a large hole in the south face of the overpass that penetrated both the concrete and, according to WSDOT, a girder. The rightmost eastbound lane of the overpass remains closed to truck traffic. “By our estimate, it will cost $1.2 million to replace the damaged girder,” WSDOT Assistant Regional Administrator Dave McCormick said. The Department will fund the replacement with emergency money from the United States government until it can be compensated for the overpass damage. WSDOT is seeking compensation from Recology Cleanscapes’ insurance provider. Daniel Nash: 425-391-0363 ext. 5052; dnash@issaquahreporter.com

which contracts with King County Sheriff ’s Office, would add six positions. Response times, in comparison to King County, would improve by at least 5 minutes. However, Klahanie proper has hired off-duty officers to supplement their coverage from King County. These officers have a quick response time, the city is told. Eastside Fire & Rescue’s District 10, which services the Klahanie area, would have a net loss in revenue of $1.27 million if the area is annexed. However, Deputy Chief Bud Backer said the actual loss would be much lower, considering Eastside Fire & Rescue has an interlocal agreement with Issaquah, Sammamish,

North Bend, District 10 and 38. “We’re not changing how we service those areas,” Backer said. Each area pays for services that are calculated based on the total property values and the number of calls received. Station 83, located on Issaquah-Pine Lake Road Southeast, is usually the first responder to the Klahanie area. “(The city of Sammamish’s) costs of operating Station 83 will increase,” Backer said. Though there was some interest in annexing to Sammamish in 2002, this is the first time the city has been able to put it on the ballot. Sammamish spokesperson Tim Larson said he hasn’t caught wind of any major opposing group against the annexation. After the election, assuming vot-
ers choose to become Sammamish residents, city council will set the official date of annexation and staff will arrange asset transfer from King County. The city is hopeful this will happen within the following few months. The potential annexation area includes 25 subdivisions with a triangular boundary defined by Southeast 32nd Way/Street and Southeast Issaquah-Beaver Lake Road on the north, IssaquahPine Lake Road Southeast on the west and Southeast Issaquah-Fall City Road and Southeast Duthie Hill Road on the south and east. Klahanie was formerly in Issaquah’s annexation area. After two failed attempts to annex the roughly 2-squaremile area, Issaquah signed over the potential annexation area to Sammamish in mid-2014.

several times this year to hold off adding to staffs’ already full plate. “I’m afraid if you scatter the staff too many directions too often that we’re not going to be very efficient to deliver results that you’re expecting from us,” he said to city council at the April 7 meeting. “The plate is truly full, but, it’s your pleasure, if you want to add something to the list you have to take something off the list. There isn’t enough resources here to get everything done.” The majority of the eight listed projects are slated to cost more than $1 million dollars. Almost two miles along Sahalee Way Northeast would be expanded to a three-lane or five-lane configuration. The $16.6 million improvements, based off a three-lane configuration, won’t likely break ground for a few years. This is the most expensive project outlined in Philpot’s presentation. A traffic study will begin in May and staff hope to bring design concepts to council in November. Stabilizing 212th Way Southeast, or better known as Snake Hill Road, comes in at $9 million. The city hopes to award the construction contract in 2016. The $4.4 million Inglewood Drainage trunkline construction could break ground next year; but funding depends on the state’s Public Works Trust Fund Loan. The state had committed funding to the project, Yazici said, but it’s looking less likely that money will be there as the funds are reallocated elsewhere. The city should know more in the upcoming months. The project could be broken into two parts: $3.3 million for drainage improvements and $1.1 million for a sidewalk that would allow pedestrians to walk from 228th Avenue to East Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast. The city will invest $2.5 million in its pavement.

Frisinger and Highlands Association given green awards On April 10, the city of Issaquah named former Mayor Ava Frisinger and the Issaquah Highlands Community Association as recipients of city environmental awards. Frisinger is the recipient of the 2015 Ruth Kees Environmental Award. The award recognizes individuals who have shown themselves to be exemplary advocates for the environment. Frisinger is a docent and president of the board of directors for the Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery. She is additionally a board member of the

Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust and a former board member of regional salmon conservation group WRIA 8. The Issaquah Highlands Community Association is the first recipient of the Community Environmental Award, which the city of Issaquah plans to award annually. The award was created to recognize outstanding achievements in conservation, protection and preservation of Issaquah’s environmental resources through community action. It can be awarded to individuals, groups or organizations.
“One of the largest networks the city owns is our roadway network,” Philpot said, commending the council’s budget and attention preserving the city’s roads. Construction, June through October, will include the overlay of 7 miles of road. The majority are local roads. This work will include Duthie Hill Road and Southeast Issaquah-Beaver Lake Road. The Sammamish Landing, suffered a minor landslide earlier this year delaying its progress, is marked for a parking lot along East Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast. The city hopes to complete construction before July 4th. The park will open when King County completes construction on and opens the East Lake Sammamish Trail. It is a $1.7 million undertaking. The city earmarked $1 million in the 201314 budget for the Town Center’s stormwater solution, which city staff are monitoring as plans for the development are reviewed and implemented. The remaining projects, all under a million dollars, included small road repairs, traffic light software updates and a small stormwater repair. Philpot outlined several other areas the staff are responsible for, like right of way permits or the East Lake Sammamish Trail coordination with the residents and county. “We’re only talking about engineering and capital projects sites,” Yazici said to the council. “Obviously there’s about this much workload is on the maintenance and operations side.” Council members gave Philpot high praise for her work, recognizing how much the department is doing. “It’s not just me,” Philpot said. “I have an amazing staff and department.” The April 7 presentation is viewable on the city’s website.

Vote ‘Yes’ to update emergency radio system
W
hen an emergency happens, we rely on our first responders to get the call and respond quickly. In King County, every communication between first responders, dispatchers, and hospitals is routed through a network of 26 radio transmitter sites connected through fiber and microwave connections. This network serves Bellevue, as it does all 39 cities in the county. We need this system to operate reliably, especially when there is a fire, police or medical emergency. But this radio network that Sammamish, Issaquah, Bellevue and other agency police, fire, Medic One and NORCOMM dispatch responders use thousands of times every day is dangerously out of date and needs to be replaced. The network is nearly 20 years old, and each year becomes more prone to unexpected failures and outages. Our firefighter and police officers sometimes have to use different radio channels to communicate. They experience unpredictable radio dead zones. This is unacceptable. It puts public safety professionals, and everyone in Bellevue, at risk. On April 28th, there will be a special election to determine whether we can fix the problems responders experience with the current radio system. An “approve” vote on King County Proposition 1 will replace radios used by first responders to communicate during crises, upgrade equipment in King County’s 911 call centers, increase reliability, and provide greater coverage for radio communications. I’m urging voters to join me in voting to Approve King County Proposition 1. Together, we can make sure our responders have the tools they need to protect our families, our friends, and our community. Please vote “approve” to invest in all of our public safety.

Letters YES for Initiative/ Referendum
When I ran for City Council four years ago I stressed the need for greater citizen engagement and the need for a culture of accountability. This April 28 the citizens of Sammamish have the ability to increase both in our city by saying YES to the right to Initiative/Referendum. One thing I have seen during my time on the Council is that our citizens are highly engaged and want to have their voices heard. Based on events of this past year, we have seen hundreds of citizens come to make public comments to the City, voicing their concern that they are not being heard and process not followed. This same sentiment has been expressed through the expanded participation in grassroots organizations within our City calling for the Initiative/Referendum. Our local press has called out for our City to listen to our citizens and also expressed support for the right of Initiative/Referendum as a way to explicitly address concerns of accountability and citizen participation. In 1999 when our City was formed, the right to Initiative/Referendum was left out. This could have been corrected during the ensuing 15 years by a simple vote of the Council, yet no Council has done so. Today, 15 years later, Sammamish today does NOT have this basic right, while 85 percent of all King County citizens do–including all our neighbors in Redmond, Issaquah, Bellevue and unincorporated King County. The Initiative/Referendum adds a needed check on our elected officials and city, and also enhances the legitimacy of elected officials. As the State of Washington Constitution eloquently says “all political power is inherent in the people, and governments derive their just power from the consent of the governed.” Experience in Washington and neighboring cities that possess the right of Initiative/Referendum do not show any pattern of abuse of this basic right. City initiatives and referendums have strict limitations governing their use, and are not applicable for financial or administrative issues and require gathering thousands of signatures. The Initiative/
Referendum gives citizens another tool to have their voices heard and increases accountability of the City and Council to the Citizens. While it may never be used in Sammamish voting YES ensures we all secure back that inherent citizen right.
Ramiro Valderrama-Aramayo, Sammamish
No for Initiative/ Referendum
What problem are we trying to solve in Sammamish with the initiative/referendum vote? The initiative process, as I understand it, allows citizens the ability to initiate and enact legislation directly without passage by the City Council. The referendum process is the right of voters to repeal or approve an ordinance passed by the City Council before it becomes effective. Having lived on the "Plateau" for 32 years and witnessing first hand a great deal of change and growth — I believe the current elective form of City Council government has served us quite well. Sammamish is one of the best-run cities in the state. We have great financial strength and a stellar bond rating, with a pay-as-yougo approach to building roads and parks. We are building a Community/ Aquatic Center with cash — not new taxes. City taxes have not gone up in five years and won't for the next two years — and we aren't charged utility taxes. The representative, democrat-
ically-elected Council government has done an exemplary job in a rapid growth environment and, in the process, the city has earned a fine reputation as one of the best communities in the state. The pro-side argues that big outside special interest groups will not be involved in Sammamish affairs. Don't kid yourself. Tim Eyman funded an initiative in Redmond and outside money recently funded initiatives in Issaquah, Sequim, Blaine, Shelton, and Mukilteo. They all failed; but local citizens of those communities were stuck with the election and legal costs. There is good reason to believe that powerful outside monied interests are assisting with this initiative/ referendum in Sammamish as well. Council member elections happen every two years. If the pro-side wants so desperately to change things — run for office or recruit someone who will represent your views on Council. The pro-side will also argue that the majority of citizens in our state already enjoy the "liberties" of initiative/ referendum. Not exactly - 74 percent of the 191 "code" cities in Washington like Sammamish — including Kirkland, Snoqualmie, and Auburn do not. Special interest groups? Big outside money? Poorly-drafted laws? Unintended consequences? Unfunded mandates? We don't need any of it. Vote no.

City purchases two turf sweepers BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
The city of Sammamish purchased two replacement synthetic turf field sweepers for $16,690. The sweepers will be used at Eastlake High School and Skyline High School, per the city’s partnership with the Lake Washington and Issaquah school districts. Sammamish and the two school districts developed synthetic turf fields at the schools in 2005 and 2006. The city performs routine maintenance. Sweepers clean and groom community sports fields. They also de-compact the turf, which is necessary to ensure ongoing safety of the fields. The current sweepers, purchased in 2006, are at the end of their life, where repairs would cost more than purchasing new ones. The money for this purchase comes from the city’s 2015 Parks Resource budget for machinery and equipment, which in total is $22,000. The city received three bids, published in mid-March, for the sweepers. It awarded the project to Sports Install LLC, the lowest bidder.

What, you might ask, does the Pickering Barn have to do with Abraham Lincoln? Tuesday, April 14, marked the 150th anniversary of the assassination of President Lincoln and April 9 marked the 150th anniversary of the end of the American Civil War. Just a remote territory at the time of the outbreak of war, the region was largely untouched by its outbreak. Colonel Justus Steinberger determined Washington could only hope to raise three companies from resident settlers and, in the end, only two companies of the 1st Washington Territory infantry regiment were recruited from the area, the remaining soldiers having come from California. Those soldiers did not battle the Confederate States of America, instead protecting those territorial forts that had not already been abandoned and guarding the west's communications lines from the perceieved threat of an

American Indian attack. However, over the course of the war, President Lincoln was responsible for the western arrival of William Pickering, the namesake of the Pickering Barn in Issaquah. An English immigrant, Pickering moved to Illinois in 1821 and served in that state's House of Representatives from 1842 to 1852. Pickering would become an important figure in Lincoln's Republican Party — and a personal friend of Lincoln himself — serving as a delegate to the national convention in 1860. In 1862, Lincoln offered Pickering the choice of taking a diplomatic position for the United States’ relations with the British Empire by becoming a member of the country's United States Ministry in England; or he could become Washington's territorial governor, which had proved a tricky position to fill: native Kentuckian Richard Gholson resigned from the position in 1961 during

the leadup to the Civil War and the position remained vacant for more than a year when appointed replacement William H. Wallace chose instead to represent the territory in the U.S. House of Representatives. Pickering took the governorship, moving to Olympia in June 1862 and serving until 1866.
Pickering's accomplishments included the connection of the territory to a transcontinental telegraph line and the establishment of government services for the mentally ill. Before leaving Washington following the end of his term to return to Illinois, Pickering purchased land in the Squak Valley from area homesteaders. This land would eventually become the site of the Pickering Farm, one of the state's largest dairy farms. The Pickering Barn was constructed in 1878, five years after Pickering's death, and the dairy barn would not be constructed until early in the next century, in 1906. Today, the barn is owned by the city of Issaquah and used as a rental property for weddings and other events, as well as serving as the site of the Issaquah Farmers Market.

Audibles are a constant of life in sports The weather outside couldn’t have been more perfect as I sat at my desk typing up myriad sports articles at the Bellevue Reporter and Issaquah/Sammamish Reporter office on Richards Road in Factoria on April 9. The weather conditions outside during the early afternoon hours were absolutely impeccable. According to Google, it was 64 degrees with mostly sunny SHAUN SCOTT skies. My first thought was, “I need to find a sporting event during the afternoon to cover.” There was one problem. It was spring break for all of the schools in my coverage area, which meant the amount of varsity games and events taking place were slim. I searched and searched, but couldn’t locate one single event to attend. There were plenty of events to choose from on April 10 and on April 13 though, so it wasn’t like I was completely devoid of games to cover for the next edition of the newspaper. One of the biggest challenges of being a sportswriter is Mother Nature’s wrath. This is especially true early in the spring and in the late fall, when inclement weather conditions can wreak havoc on the sports schedule. SEE REDZONE, 11
The rock of the Eagles makes big plays Hughes combines knowledge with unique style on the soccer field BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Issaquah Eagles senior midfielder Conner Hughes exudes leadership from his position of defensive midfielder on the soccer field. Hughes will continue his soccer career next year at Cedarville University in Dayton, Ohio.
Preschool & Kindergarten through 8th grade
Issaquah Eagles senior midfielder Conner Hughes is his team’s first line of defense on the soccer field. Hughes, who plays center defensive midfielder for the Eagles, relishes the opportunity to not only be a force on the defensive end but contribute to the Eagles high-octane offense. “I love that spot. I have played that position for the last three years. I would definitely say physicality is my best attribute as a soccer player. I find myself a lot of times using my body to shield the ball away from players or slide tackling to get the ball,” Hughes said. “I enjoy high school soccer because there is a lot more opportunities to be involved on both sides of the ball.” Eagles’ head coach Kyle Tatro said Hughes’ cerebral approach to the sport stands out in his mind. “Conner has got a style about how he plays. You recognize him really quickly when he’s on the field,” Tatro said. “He is the rock in front of our two center backs (defenders) and is really good at winning balls in the air.” Hughes is a proverbial master of strategy with the ball on his feet. “His game is so savvy and is about twists, turns and finding avenues,” Tatro said of Hughes. “Its cool watching him play. He has got a defensive mindset to the game and can distribute the ball well from the midfield position. Conner plays a big role and brings intangibles and leadership qualities to our team.” SEE HUGHES,10

The Eagles won their second consecutive game in Arizona courtesy of a 14-6 win against Gilbert High School (Arizona) on April 8 in Gilbert. Cody Klansnic scored four goals and Ryan Egland added three goals in the win. Giannopulos finished with six ground balls and goalie Jordan Dondoyano had five saves.

Eastside Catholic Crusaders senior outfielder Addison Hull is confident his final season of high school baseball will be his finest one yet when it’s all said and done. The Crusaders, who have compiled an overall record of 10-2 in early season action, don’t have any weaknesses in 2015. BEYOND THE The four-year starter is confident his ATHLETE squad can make a memorable run in the postseason this May. “Our goal is to definitely get to state. That is the ultimate. We want to see how far we can take it. We just have to take it game by game,” Hull said. The difference between the 2015 Crusaders and the teams of yesteryear is the formidable pitching staff on the hill. “Our pitching staff has definitely stepped up. They have been pounding the zone throwing strikes which helps us get a lot of ground ball outs and gets us out of innings,” Hull said. Recently the Issaquah/Sammamish Reporter had an opportunity to ask Hull a few questions about his life away from sports.
The Issaquah Eagles boys lacrosse team defeated Desert Vista (Arizona) 10-9 on April 7 in Phoenix. Jake Lindahl scored three goals and won 11 faceoffs. Issaquah built an early 4-0 lead and fended off a late rally by Desert Vista to preserve

The Eagles, who advanced to the Class 4A state tournament in 2014, have gotten off to a rocky 4-4 start. Hughes expects things to change for the better in a hurry. “I think we really just need to focus on becoming a unit rather than being just a bunch of individual players. We’re getting there. We’ve played some really good opponents so far which is going to help us down the road. In our loss yesterday (Issaquah lost 2-1 to Inglemoor on April 2) we had a much better performance,” Hughes said. The senior team captain is savoring every moment he can with the Eagles in the final two months of his high school soccer career. Hughes will play collegiate soccer for Cedarville University in Dayton, Ohio next season. “I know as we get toward the end of the season it will set in more. I remember last year all of the seniors talking about how it was their last game of organized soccer and how sad it was but that hasn’t hit me yet. I’m sure it is going to hit me when we get to the elimination stage of the playoffs,” he said.

REDZONE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9
On at least three occasions so far this spring, I planned on covering a baseball or softball game that ended up being canceled. Spring time in the Pacific Northwest is as unpredictable as it gets, weather-wise. One thing I have learned over the past 10 years as a sportswriter is that you can have a perfect plan for coverage in place and, in the blink of an eye, it’s erased faster than you can snap your fingers.
In May of 2013, while I was writing sports for the Puyallup Herald, I was slated to cover the final day of the district softball tournament taking place in Parkland on a Saturday. I figured there would be at least three to four stories written about the tourney, considering I had three teams competing in my coverage area. It was going to fill the bulk of the sports section that following Wednesday, which was the day the paper was printed. Unfortunately there was a downpour of rain and the entire tournament was cancelled. My plan was derailed, but I still had to find content. I ended up
writing a few baseball and water polo stories — courtesy of phone interviews on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon — to fill the sports section. Being a sports journalist is similar to being the quarterback of a football team: You can have a play called in the huddle but at the line of scrimmage a slew of audibles and last-second adjustments are sometimes necessary. It’s just the nature of the business. Shaun Scott: 425-453-5045; sscott@bellevuereporter.com
Has GERD soured you on pills? For some, medication isn’t enough. Over-the-counter and prescription heartburn and reflux medications are effective for many people, but for some people with chronic gastroesophageal reflux, or GERD, medications can be a bitter pill to swallow when they no longer effectively treat symptoms. If your symptoms aren’t being controlled or are getting worse, it may be time to consider advanced treatment. Join Swedish esophageal physicians for a discussion about new cutting-edge surgical treatments that provide the relief you deserve from GERD.

IR: What is your biggest pet peeve? AH: When people are driving slow in front of me and I’m stuck in traffic. IR: If you could pick one person to go to dinner with, who would it be? AH: I would say Lou Gehrig. He made a huge impact on the game and laid it all out there. IR: What is your dream vacation spot? AH: Australia.
