Robber strikes U.S. Bank in Factoria

A Bellevue Police officer follows a K-9 unit up Southeast 40th Place as it attempts to locate a robbery suspect who struck the nearby U.S. Bank in Factoria. The suspect escaped Tuesday. BY BRANDON MACZ BELLEVUE REPORTER
A robbery suspect made off with an undisclosed amount of cash after striking the Factoria branch of U.S. Bank on Tuesday afternoon, April 28. Bellevue Police Ofc. Seth Tyler said a white man with a muscular build, wearing a ski mask and hoodie, entered the bank around 12:20 p.m. Tuesday and gave a teller a note that implied he had a gun, but did not display a firearm during the robbery. After receiving the undisclosed amount of cash,
the robbery suspect fled the scene, Tyler said. A Seattle Police K-9 unit was used by officers in an attempt to locate the suspect, the dog at one point leading its handler past the strip mall behind the bank and east up Southeast 40th Place. Tyler said King County’s Guardian One helicopter was also called in to assist in searching the wooded area east of the bank. Police interviewed employees at the bank and have provided a photo of the suspect. The FBI took over the case later that afternoon.

Police substation move complete Crossroads department expands next to Crunch Fitness, Stone Gardens BY BRANDON MACZ BELLEVUE REPORTER
Officers and volunteers are settling in at the Bellevue Police Department’s new Crossroads Substation, after having to change locations after 20 years this month to make way for a Jamba Juice in the mall. “The mall, it was like-for-like, so they did the buildout,” said Lt. Travis Forbush, who supervises the city’s police substations. “It’s much bigger, actually.” The new substation, located next
to Crunch Fitness in the Crossroads Mall, provides more workspace to conduct interviews and organize community events like National Night Out, Forbush said, though visibility has been reduced since moving from its site facing 156th Avenue Northeast. He added the mall has plans for directional signage to ease that concern. “Hopefully we maintain higher traffic for the community,” Forbush said. Bellevue Police Ofc. Craig Hanaumi, who handles community outreach from the Crossroads sub-
station, told the Reporter in February the new location is closer to the Crossroads Community Center, where the BPD offers self-defense classes and takes calls related to incidences at nearby parks. He added Crunch Fitness and Stone Gardens will benefit from the substation’s presence, as that area has a higher concentration of calls for vehicle prowls. Brandon Macz, Bellevue Reporter “It’s his house,” said Forbush of Hanaumi’s efforts at the substation. Crossroads police substation volunteer Syd Darlington keeps busy at the department’s new location in the Crossroads Mall. Police Lt. Travis “Hopefully it benefits him and the Forbush, right, says he hopes the community keeps coming by for help. work he’s doing.”
Historic Philbrook House to leave city

Residents weigh in on Bovee Park

STAFF REPORT
BELLEVUE REPORTER
Bovee Park came one step closer to having its contentious name changed on Tuesday, when the city parks board took comments from the public for what its new title should be. The park invokes thoughts of Bellevue’s first mayor, Charles Bovee, and allegations in 1959 that he molested children, which led to his arrest and eventual exile from the city to avoid prosecution. The city council decided in February to honor the request of one of Bovee’s alleged victims and change the park’s name, and Kasia Wilk had a few ideas as to what. “I am so glad that you are renamBrandon Macz, Bellevue Reporter ing this park, you have no idea,” Wilk The city parks board took testimony from the public on Tuesday as to what residents told the parks board on Tuesday.

Legislators may give themselves a raise — but what about teachers?
S
tate lawmakers are up for a raise in the next two years. It looks like it will be a lot larger than what they’re considering giving thousands of state workers and public school teachers. On May 13, the Washington Citizens’ Commission on Salaries for Elected Officials is set to vote to give lawmakers an 11 percent raise. That would be more than double the percentage increase that those same legislators are considering for state workers and teachers. Teachers know this and are incensed about it. Some have written the commission urging it to be less generous. And they made their feelings clear when Gov. Jay Inslee spoke at Saturday’s rally of 5,000 educators and supporters on the steps of the state Capitol. Inslee acknowledged that it has been six years since the state provided a costJerry Cornfield of-living adjustment for teachers. When he pledged to fight to secure a “real COLA” of 4.8 percent in the next budget, he was briefly drowned out by a chant of “12 percent, 12 percent” — a slightly off reference to the pending double-digit pay hike for lawmakers. (Inslee, by the way, stands to get a 4 percent raise) To be fair, lawmakers aren’t involved in the process of setting their own pay. That’s the role of the commission, an independent panel expected to operate free of political encumbrances. Its members aren’t supposed to be swayed by the salary woes faced by teachers. Nor are they to be affected by knowing the 147 men and women in the Legislature have been held in contempt by the state Supreme Court for violating constitutional dictates for school funding.

Name park after Roland Burrows
Roland Burrow would be an appropriate person to name Bovee park after. He was the grandson of Albert Burrows senior that first settled at Borrow’s landing. He was also a Veteran of the Battle of the Bulge, a POW and suffered from that experience. What ever the renaming of the park, I agree with my neighbors that spoke at the Parks Board meeting last night that Bovee Park should be renamed after something or someone associated with the neighborhood. I would like to state that Nan Campbell’s legacy is great but is not associated with this neighborhood. She should be recognized where her work was strongest, like Crossroads Park or the about to be completed Downtown Park. Nan was an advocate for neighborhoods, but she sometimes put the interests of the central business district above the desires of the Northtowne Neighborhood.

Legislature wrong to bar school levies In its effort to address incomplete support for public education, the Washington State Senate has taken the misguided step of reducing local communities’ ability to support strong educational opportunities for all students. In the 2012 McCleary decision, Washington State’s Supreme Court ordered the State Legislature to comply with its constitutional “paramount duty” to amply fund “basic” education of K-12 students in Washington State. The current legislative session has brought forward bills
that are partly aimed at complying with the “basic education” aspects of McCleary, and partly aimed at reducing school districts’ local control. The Bellevue School Board unanimously opposes Senate Bill 6109, which for all practical purposes makes it illegal for individual school districts’ to raise local levy funds to support any education beyond the “basic” level. That is not a misprint. SB 6109 prohibits local communities from raising and spending funds to support their local schools. Under SB 6109’s ill-advised restrictions on local funding, each and every student in our state would graduate with exactly the minimum number of credits required. SB 6109 would prohibit districts from providing staff compensation commensurate with the cost of living in their districts. It would make it impossible for districts to experiment with higher pay for outstanding teachers. It would make it impossible for districts to provide longer school days, to offer more classes, or to implement many other proven educational practices. Other districts might think this issue does not affect them, but SB 6109 hurts those districts too. Local control allows districts like Bellevue to pioneer practices such as AP classes, IB diplomas, gifted programming, and longer school days, and we do that using local funds. Experimentation paves the way for other districts to implement the same programs in more cost-effective ways. SB 6109 prevents that local experimentation, which is a recipe for education stagnation in our state. SEE LETTERS, 9

Inequity persists in county despite economic recovery King County Executive gives annual State of the County address in Federal Way BY RAECHEL DAWSON FEDERAL WAY MIRROR REPORTER
Bryce Kasota had to duck out early from King County Executive Dow Constantine’s State of the County address on Monday. It was to take an exam at Seattle Central College so she could continue her streak of a 3.9 GPA and earn her associate degree in nursing. But Kasota wasn’t always in the position to succeed. “As a single mother before she finished high school, Bryce faced an uncertain future,” Constantine told a room full of nearly 200 people at the Federal Way Community Center. “She credits a Public Health employee from the Nurse-Family Partnership with helping her escape an abusive relationship, and helping her become the supportive mother her daughter needs.” Constantine said it’s early actions such as this that set the tone for lifelong success. Which is why Constantine, along with the King County Council, is proposing a six-year levy called Best Starts for Kids, to be on this November’s general election ballot. Best Starts for Kids will raise $58 million in the first year, if passed, and will cost the average homeowner in King County “about a dollar a week.” The levy lid increase of 14 cents per $1,000 of assessed property value adds about $56 a year in taxes. “The failure to invest early leads to much costlier crisis interventions later — costlier for the individual, for society and for the county budget,” Constantine said. “And, of course, jail is the costliest and least effective crisis intervention of all.” Despite King County’s 80,000 added jobs over the past two years, a low 4.5 percent unemployment rate and a median household income of $69,000, Constantine spoke of the “accelerating crisis of income inequality that threatens to undermine our economic future by undermining our middle class.” Since 2000, the executive said King County has seen a net increase of 85,000
households but less than 4 percent of these are middle-income. The rest are split between annual incomes of $125,000 and those earning less than $35,000. “And as King County has grown less equal, the racial and geographic distribution of poverty has grown less equal as well,” he said. “Over the past 15 years, more than 80 percent of the growth in poverty has come in the suburbs outside of Seattle. Throughout the county, formerly middle-income neighborhoods are becoming either richer or poorer.” What was once a distribution of 90 percent of Americans enjoying 70 percent of all income growth in the 1950-1970s, is now the top 1 percent of Americans receiving 175 percent of all income growth from 2009-2012, he said. “This mocks the fundamental principle on which we were all raised: That if we work hard, we can all succeed,” Constantine said. “It’s unfair. It is un-American. And it is economically unsustainable.” A diverse workforce brings innovation and economic success because as more people approach a problem with different perspectives, the faster and more efficiently that problem is solved, he said. “If we want to prosper in an economy fueled by innovation, then we must give all of our children — regardless of circumstance — the education and the opportunity to bring their own unique talents to bear to solve the enormous problems that lie ahead: Ending hunger. Curing disease. Confronting climate change,” he said. However, by creating alternatives to juvenile detention by cutting the number of children detained from 205 to 45, Constantine notes the racial disparity in juvenile detention has grown. Black youths account for half of the population in the juvenile system, despite representing only 8 percent of all youths in King County. In order to continue the mission of ending racial disparity in juvenile detention, preventing homelessness, treating mental illness instead of criminalizing it, and partnering with schools, the executive will create a committee that will gather leaders in 19 local school districts and police agencies from 39 Washington cities. It is the future work that these leaders and committee will achieve by way of the proposed levy.

families and youth to prevent homelessness, walkable and connected communities and increased access to affordable healthy foods. All of these strategies are based on the latest brain science being conducted at the University of Washington. “For decades, we’ve been led to believe we must accept a tradeoff between economic fairness and economic growth,” he said. “This just isn’t true. In a highly competitive global economy where the most innovative companies seek out the most diverse, inclusive workforce — fairness and growth go hand in hand.” For more information, visit www.kingcounty.gov/beststarts.

He also has a contractor in place for deconstructing part of the Philbrook House and restoring it in Carnation. “There’s some deconstruction involved, nonetheless,” Dickmann said. “We’re going to carefully fold down the upper floor.” Should the city ever want to site the Philbrook House in Bellevue in the future, Dickmann said the Carnation property owner supports its return. “He’s committed to taking the house, perhaps not permanently,” Dickmann said, “but perhaps permanently.”

SB 6109’s provisions that restrict local fund raising and spending are not required by McCleary. These provisions are a misguided attempt to raise the floor by lowering the ceiling. This lowest-commondenominator thinking is a big step backward for Washington’s children. We find the idea of the State putting limits on local communities’ support for their children to be outrageous and morally offensive. Our legislators should ask themselves, “What kind of society deliberately imposes limits on its children’s education?” SB 6109 is bad for children, it is bad education policy, and it is bad for Washington State. We urge every voter to contact your state legislators immediately to oppose SB 6109.

East Link Without the “Link”
The 4/24 Bellevue Reporter article announcing final agreement on the East Link MOU prompted me to view the video of the 4/20 meeting. I was “startled” by Councilwomen Robert’s question regarding what happens if Sound Transit is “unable to install light rail across I-90”. That “possibility” was apparently dealt with in Attachment or Appendix C, which wasn’t “readily available”. However the implication was Bellevue and Sound Transit would still use the MOU as the basis for light rail on the east side. If so, it will not only mark the “end of the city in the park” but a total debacle for the areas commuters.

ers of the four caucuses have higher salaries. The Speaker of the House and Senate Majority Leader would make $55,738 while the House and Senate minority leaders would earn $51,288. Lawmakers aren’t the only ones in line for higher salaries. Commissioners are suggesting 4 percent increases for the governor, eight other statewide elected office-holders and every judge from district court up to the Supreme Court. For some jobs, the panel wants to add in a little more, such as an extra 8 percent for the state treasurer and 3.5 percent for the chief justice of the Supreme Court. Under the proposal, Inslee would make $173,617 in 2016, up from $166,891 today, and Chief Justice Barbara Madsen’s earnings would climb from $172,531
Commissioners derived their recommendations from a consultant’s analysis, using something called the Willis System that tries to put a value to various duties associated with a particular job. In this instance the consultant calibrated lawmakers’ responsibilities and earnings against those of nonunion state administrators and their wages and concluded lawmakers are underpaid. Their last raise came in 2008. Commissioners in January proposed an 8 percent increase starting Sept. 1 and another 3 percent on Sept. 1, 2016. This would push pay for 143 lawmakers from $42,106 to $46,839. Lead-

All these raises are not set in stone. On May 13, commissioners will hold a final public hearing before adopting a new wage chart for the legislative, executive and judicial branches. It must be filed with the Secretary of State by June 1 and the new salaries would go up Sept. 1. But they can be blocked by referendum. One would need to collect and turn in at least 123,186 valid signatures of registered voters before Sept. 1. If successful, the issue could be on the ballot this fall.

“It’s very customized and it’s really supposed to help companies with very specific questions and needs,” Henderson said. The economic development director told the city council on April 20 about how he met with a Bellevue-based food manufacturing company that wanted to expand into the Canadian market. His office connected the company with export services that got them on their way, he said. Providing technical assistance and working with city departments to connect companies with methods for improving or expanding their business leads to more job creation and local investments over time, Henderson said. “It’s always kind of checking the pulse of a company,” he said. Henderson said he listened when local developer Kemper Freeman, Jr., said he doesn’t believe Expedia’s announcement it would move to Seattle in 2018 is a sure thing, but decisions like Expedia’s are not made without extensive planning. “They aren’t the first and they won’t be the last,” he said.
E-commerce giant Alibaba is considering Bellevue among its possible choices for a new U.S. headquarters, wanting to save on rental costs by moving from San Francisco and capitalizing on the region’s supply of tech workers. Alibaba has a small office in Seattle. Henderson said he met with an Alibaba representative recently, to understand the company’s needs. “They seem like a great company, and I think Bellevue would be very attractive to them,” he said. It isn’t about Bellevue versus Seattle, Henderson said; he thinks there is a regional opportunity to open up foreign trade offices, much like what San Antonio has — most of those are located in Mexico. Henderson said he’ll present a final draft of a crowdfunding marketplace study — completed by BERK and Associates — to city council in the near future. Henderson said the city needed to be clear how equity crowdfunding — where an individual could buy in to a Bellevue startup and receive a share of the company — aligns with the Washington JOBS (Jumpstart Our Business Startups) Act, passed last year.

“We think we have a good path to move on from these kinds of lawsuits and move on with construction,” Gray said. He said Sound Transit has a healthy mitigation plan to counter impacts from future light rail construction and operation. That includes replacing about 1,000 trees to be removed along the project with 9,000 trees in the slough, rehabilitating another seven acres of wetlands and adding 7 1/2 acres of storm water treatment adjacent to the slough. The first phase of East Link construction will be the start of the downtown tunnel in early 2016, Gray said.

against the Auburn man. The woman approached a Bellevue vice detective a year later, saying she wanted to help prosecute Cyprian for what he’d done to her and at least one other prostitute. Cyprian was indicted on two counts of sex trafficking through force, fraud and coercion and two counts of transportation for the purpose of prostitution through coercion and enticement by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Seattle last July. Cyprian pleaded guilty to two counts of human trafficking in December. Along with his prison term, Cyprian is also required to undergo three years of supervised probation following his release and register as a sex offender. The affidavit states the woman was already working as a prostitute when she met Cyprian through one of his former victims in April 2013, initially declining his offer to be her pimp. She reported being raped by Cyprian in a Seatac hotel, at which point she assumed they were dating and he would also be her pimp.

From that time to July 2013, the woman told police Cyprian controlled all aspects of her life, including setting up online ads for prostitution on Backpage.com, making her appointments with johns, setting fees for services and always staying close by while she worked a circuit that included Bellevue, Seatac, Mountlake Terrace, Auburn, Tukwila and Portland. He also allegedly beat the woman at least once a week, controlled what and when she ate and forced her to work 24/7, napping between johns, the affidavit states. Bellevue Police first encountered the victim during a joint undercover operation with the Child Endangerment Task Force on April 26, 2013, where the mission was to recover juveniles stuck in prostitution and encourage adult prostitutes to quit or leave their pimps. Cyprian had allegedly rented a room at the Bellevue Hilton to traffic the woman for sex, posting an ad for her on Backpage that undercover officers used to schedule an appointment at the Silver Cloud Motel. She was arrested and interviewed about Cyprian, the affidavit states, refusing to give him up out of fear. She was arrested

again for prostitution in July 2013 and incarcerated for 45 days, telling police she briefly returned to work for Cyprian after her release. The woman fled to Texas and later returned to the Seattle area. Once back in the Seattle area, the woman told police she was put to work driving Cyprian and a new prostitute to appointments around the region. She was arrested for an outstanding warrant out of Bellevue for prostitution later in January 2014, following a traffic stop while driving Cyprian around Mountlake Terrace. The Bellevue Police, working with the Mountlake Terrace Police and FBI, began building a case against Cyprian, the affidavit states, linking the 33-yearold Auburn man to Backpage ads and confirming the prostitute’s story through hotel invoices signed by Cyprian. Auburn Police arrested Cyprian for domestic violence at the Days Inn in May, after he allegedly grabbed, punched, pushed and shook his alleged prostitute. He made bail, but was again arrested by Bellevue Police after officers received a tip regarding his whereabouts on June 16.

Shopping center retailers were phased out during years of redevelopment, with the understanding a number of them would be invited back once Lake Hills Village was
ready for business again. “We offered that to a lot of the tenants, but the reality is when you start disrupting the area — moving and changing things — it becomes very difficult,” Del Moro said. Residents were eager to hear which businesses would be occupying the 70,000 square feet of retail space during last Thursday’s Lake Hills Community Association

Lake Hills residents fanned Oscar Del Moro with questions surrounding progress developing and leasing the neighborhood’s shopping center last Thursday, the redevelopment of which is nearing completion after more than a decade. “We want you to spend your money here and we really need you to spend your money here, after all this time,” said Del Moro of Cosmos Development and Administration, which purchased the property in 1998. Del Moro said Cosmos had no real plans for the shopping center at the time of its purchase, except to lock down an urban piece of real estate that had development potential and a ready-built environment around it. The city approached Cosmos in 2000 — part of its push to revitalize failing neighborhood shopping centers — and a plan was solidified by 2006. Bellevue covered half of a $20,000 study of development options early in the process. A new Lake Hills Library was a

Council clears Crossroads Village for public hearing next month BY BRANDON MACZ BELLEVUE REPORTER
The Bellevue City Council on Monday lauded a proposal to construct apartments and townhomes north of the Crossroads Mall as a positive use of the vacant Haggen grocery site, and anticipates clearing the project for construction in June. Intracorp Seattle plans to develop the 350,000-square-foot Crossroads Village complex at the former grocery site northeast of the Crossroads Mall to include 230 units of townhouses and residential flats, 18,000 square feet of boutique commercial space, a pedestrian connection to Crossroads Park and an urban trail connection with the mall, according to city permit documents. The council initiated a land use code amendment process in February to allow for an increase in multifamily housing in the Crossroads subarea, where Crossroads Village is to be constructed at 15751 N.E. 15th St. Multifamily housing in the Crossroads was capped north of Northeast Eighth Street in 2007. Bellevue and Intracorp also have drafted a development agreement, which details how public benefits like an urban trail will be constructed. City council will hold a public hearing on the land use change amendment and
development agreement at 8 p.m. May 18 in city hall council chambers. Planning and Community Development Director Dan Stroh said a 16-foot wide park connector trail leading from the southern boundary of Crossroads Village up a stairway to Crossroads Park is one of several public benefits included in the development agreement. An ADA walkway will run southeast from the stairway to connect back to the park trail. The portion of the project where Crossroads Village meets the park will be designed as both a visual access point and to enhance park safety. A pedestrian-oriented commercial
corridor — extending from the mall, through Crossroads Village, to Northeast 15th Street — will act as a “Main Street” for the complex, Stroh said, with retail on both sides. At the north part of the site, Northeast 15th also will be improved with a “park-like” character, Stroh said. Councilmembers gave the all-clear for the draft development agreement to proceed through the public hearing process, but asked staff to assess the potential traffic impacts Crossroads Village could have on residents on Northeast 15th, after several expressed concerns earlier during Monday’s council meeting.

meeting, one of the greatest desires being a grocery store in the neighborhood. Jim Maloney of Cosmos Development said the company had attracted the interest of a grocer, but the neighborhood was determined to not be urban enough. “We said, ‘This is as urban as you’re going to get,’ ” Maloney said. There is roughly 40,000 square feet of grocery space tucked under the library, with a large underground loading dock, Del Moro said, keeping the supermarket’s business from interfering with plaza space. “We took the back side of the grocery store and we buried it underground,” he said, adding the yetunknown supermarket will have adequate frontage at 156th Avenue Southeast. “We’d like to have a bank, but we don’t want a drivethrough,” he added, which has caused problems for a number of bankers. “We really think a drive-through defeats the purpose of what we’re trying to do.” Lake Hills residents questioned why they were holding last Thursday’s meeting in vacant office space at the shopping center, which Del Moro explained had to do with first constructing the
library, then losing parking during later construction phases that was prohibitive for employers. “We couldn’t push the marketing because we didn’t have the parking,” he said of the 44,000 square feet of office space at Lake Hills Village. There will be 470 underground parking spaces for residents, office employees and other business, but just 176 in the retail plaza in the center of Lake Hills Village. European specialty market Gastronom — formerly in the Crossroads — reopened at the shopping center last week. A “Chinese Seafood Noodle” will be one of the sit-down restaurants there, said Maloney, adding Cosmos is in discussions with several more food and dining businesses. Silhouette Organic Beauty Lounge — a full hair and eyelash extension salon — is also under construction. “We really want people to walk,” said Del Moro, adding he envisions having a neighborhood market in the plaza. They will also be able to walk to a large community stage on the upper plaza, currently under construction along Lake Hills Boulevard. Seventy-one apartment units above retail have already been filled, Del Moro said, and nine duplexes — 18 units — are under construction to the west.

Mighty Moose Comics opens in Factoria BY MARNIE DELCARMEN SPECIAL TO THE REPORTER
Did you think, Mighty Mouse? The new comic book shop in the Marketplace at Factoria Mall is full of mighty characters — few if any are mousy. The new shop owned by Ilan (pronounced Elon) Strasser opened last month at the mall. It is just across from the Radio Shack store. But Strasser is not new to the comic business. “I ran a store called Fat Moose Comics and Games in New Jersey which operated continuously for thirty-two years,” he said. Bellevue is a long way from New Jersey. You might wonder how did he end up here? “It was a love story starting in Israel in 1959, that brought me to Seattle.” But that is a story for another time. Mighty Moose Comics keeps it focus on the present with a foot always firmly planted in the past. As such it carries back issue comics, trade paperbacks, graphic novels, t-shirts, action figures, statures and mini-busts, comic bags and boards, comic boxes and other supplies. There are as well Magic the Gathering and Pokemon cards and other collectibles. The shop offers a free in-store comic subscription service. Collectors can also have comic collections appraised in-store or at your home. Comics are read and collected by all ages. Educators say that despite the perception that comics are not serious literature, children do benefit from them.
“Comic books capture a child’s interest and imagination and draw him or her into the reading process. Just the act of reading builds vocabulary and comprehension—a good thing,” says retired Special Education Teacher Peggy Felton, who worked in the Bellevue School District. As a bonus for customers, the new store has opened in time for Free Comic Book Day, aka, FCBD. Did you know about FCBD? It began 14 years ago, coinciding with opening of the original Spiderman movie. This year the anticipated opening of Avengers: Age of Ultron leads the way for FCBD. On Saturday, May 2, you can choose from a special selection of comics and take them home for free. It’s a great way to introduce yourself to the wonderful world of comics reading and collecting. And, if you’re already a comic book reader, you can preview many new and exciting titles. All the major publishers participate in this great promotion, as well as many smaller, independent publishers, said Strasser. “FCBD is not only an opportunity to see what’s new in the world of comics, but a chance to meet other fans or become one yourself !”

Heavy equipment then needed to be used to clear debris like burned down vehicles to find the source of the fire, according to the release. AutoNation Ford employs more than 70 people, and has committed to financially supporting them while managers work on the site to establish temporary operations for services and sales, according to the release. The financial impact from the fire is still being assessed. Bellevue firefighters were aided by companies from Mercer Island, Redmond and Kirkland, as well as Eastside Fire and Rescue.

Residents giving new Bellevue driving range a whack BY BRANDON MACZ BELLEVUE REPORTER
The Bellevue Golf Course is getting a positive amount of play at its newly opened double-decker driving range, which replaces the original from 1968 with a technological flourish. The driving range is part of an $11.3 million enterprise facility improvement project at the Bellevue Golf Course, and is included in the city’s 2013-19 capital investment program plan. A portion of the project was paid for by borrowing from the parks capital fund, which will need to be paid back over the next several years. Construction started in September and was completed earlier this month, ahead of an April 18 opening. “You just have a beautiful view of where you hit the ball,” said Bellevue Golf Course superintendent Randy Leifer of the upper level of the 46-stall double-decker driving SEE RANGE, 20

Knights outlast Spartans
OPENING DAY DRAWS A CROWD
BY SHAUN SCOTT BELLEVUE REPORTER
Photo courtesy of Bellevue Thunderbird Little League
Bellevue Thunderbird Little League kicked off its 2015 opening day ceremonies on April 18 at Newport High School in Factoria. More than 500 kids in attendance took the Little League pledge during the festivities. The Newport High School baseball and softball teams were in attendance to support the little leaguers. “Thunderbird Little League has a long tradition of providing fantastic baseball or softball experience to our players and their families, and has been a fixture in this community for over 40 years,” Thunderbird Little League President Larry Holden said in a news release. “We are now in our second generation of players. Brad Files, the head coach for Newport High School baseball team was a Thunderbird as a kid, and his kids played Thunderbird too.” Above: The 2014 Thunderbird 9/10 all-star team state champs close out the opening day parade with a stroll around the field on April 18.
Newport Knights starting pitcher Todd Reese is cool as a cucumber in pressure situations on the baseball diamond. Reese, who pitched all seven innings in Newport’s 6-2 win against Skyline, allowed just five hits and two earned runs in a complete game effort. He threw a total of just 68 pitches. Newport improved their overall record to 14-2 while Skyline dropped to 9-7. The Knights came into the contest on a six-game winning streak while Skyline had won four straight contests. Newport head coach Brad Files said both teams arrived at the showdown playing their best baseball of the season. “Something had to give,” Files said of both teams’ winning streaks. “We got a veteran club. We didn’t panic, we stuck together and pulled it out in the end. Nothing is going to be easy. We needed a game like that today to show some grit.” Skyline scored a run in the bottom of the second inning, taking a 1-0 lead. The Knights got on track in the top of the sixth, scoring three runs and sending seven batters to the plate in the inning. The Knights added three more runs in the top of the seventh to put the game out of
reach. Newport catcher Vinny Guinasso had 2 RBI and Thomas Day scored two runs in the win. Reese allowed three hits in the first two innings before finding his groove in the final five innings of play with a wide assortment of change-ups and breaking balls. Skyline head coach Steve Darnell said Reese was calm and poised on the mound. “We didn’t make adjustments at the plate. Their pitcher (Reese) made adjustments to our hitters. We started seeing more off-speed stuff and we weren’t able to make the adjustments. That was the difference in the game,” Darnell said. Darnell was proud of his squad’s performance against the Knights despite the loss. “We competed. We had quality pitching and played good defense. Newport is a very good team and are very experienced. We are a very young team,” Darnell said. “We played some very good baseball today outside of two innings (sixth and seventh).” The Knights will face the Redmond Mustangs at 6 p.m. today at Hartman Park in Redmond. Newport will host the Inglemoor Vikings at 4 p.m. on May 4. Shaun Scott: 425-453-5045; sscott@bellevuereporter.com

New life for Totem Lake Shopping Center BY TJ MARTINELL KIRKLAND REPORTER
There are big changes ahead for the aging Totem Lake Shopping Center. An updated master plan calls for a mixed-use development including a theater‐anchored center with retail, residential, entertainment and office space. It will also include surface parking and other parking structures, with vehicle entrances to the mall from Totem Lake Boulevard, 120th Avenue Northeast and Northeast Totem Way. The Village at Totem Lake LLC is a joint venture partnership between CenterCal and PCCP, LLC. “The existing Totem Lake Mall represents an outdated shopping experience,” CenterCal President Jean Paul Wardy said in a press release announcing the purchase. “We are very excited to bring a modern ‘gathering place’ experience to Kirkland, and we are confident the com-

munity is going to love its new favorite place.” The master plan anticipates Metro Transit will add a bus stop along 120th Avenue Northeast, the location of a joint effort between the city and CenterCal as part of a redesign in order to make it more friendly to pedestrians that could include more sidewalks and walkways. In all, the new mall is expected to include one million square feet of space. Totem Lake Mall has remained relatively empty for years due to the economic downturn and litigation between the former property owners. In anticipation of the purchase, the council voted to extend the redevelopment agreement it approved in 2006. CenterCal requested that the city do so in order to assure that it will retain the same development standards and have the city’s commitment of $15 million for public improvements associated with redevelopment. Before construction begins, the project will go through the design review process with the city, which has already approved an amendment to their conceptional development plan. Planning

The Totem Lake Shopping Center was built in 1975.
Once notified about a bill, the app user can simply approve paying it or wait until the next notification. The application also warns users if they are at risk of overdrafting. “They’re in this very delicate dance each and every month,” Griffin said of people balancing bills. “We aim to solve that.” Prism is free to use, with charges for premium ser-
vices like paying off a biller that doesn’t accept credit cards. In its full two years, Prism reports assisting customers in making more than $100 million in transactions, supporting about 6,300 billers currently. “Our goal is to get up to — pretty relatively soon — the 15,000 supportive threshold,” Griffin said. “We ultimately want to be able
to offer credit in the app,” he added, for instances when a customer may need to pay a bill on a Wednesday, but don’t get paid again until Friday. Prism began another funding round in February, and is seeking to raise $400,000 to test a number of new application features focused on monetization. More information at prismmoney.com.

sional and general manager Troy Rodvold. The new range has 36 covered stalls — 13 of those with overhead heaters on the lower level — and 10 open stalls on the upper deck. He added rainy weather and a lack of lighting is no longer a problem. “Once they start golfing season, they’re golfing,” Rodvold said. The driving range is also wired with fiber optics, with plans to provide golfers with Wi-Fi in the future. Golfers can purchase buckets of balls at machines, using a code from
the club store or a prepaid card, which gives users a discount. The balls are run through a machine that disperses the balls through tubes up to the machines. With the expanded space and range distance, Rodvold said more golf clinics can be added without disrupting the public’s use of the facility. A number of summer events are still being strategized. The Bellevue Golf Course is managed for the city by Premier Golf Center, LLC. More information about the course can be found at bellevuepgc.com.

Director Eric Shields has previously said that the city is expected to make other amendments as part of the design review process. Once the design review board approves the project, they will be able to obtain building permits. CenterCal expects construction to begin in about a year. Coventry Real Estate Advisors and Developers Diversified Realty purchased the Totem Lake Malls in 2004 from the California Public Employees’ Retirement System for $37 million, intending to redevelop the site. Instead, the site became entangled in a $500 million fraud lawsuit. According to figures provided by CenterCal published in a Feb. 27 memo reviewing the fiscal analysis of the agreement, the first phase of their redevelopment is estimated to bring in roughly $1.4 million in sales tax revenue and a total tax revenue of $2.4 million, though BERK Consulting which contributed to the report had a smaller projection.

It takes time, research and the volunteers, and trusted business ability to figure out what to do if referrals so that older adults in there is a problem. their defined community can stay Many people call upon their in their own homes. This is based family or neighbors to help out, or on the “Beacon Hill Village” model give them a referral of someone from Boston.
Basically, there is a fee to join and pay per year and then a staff person(s) vet both volunteers and businesses to be referred to the member when a service is needed. It can be for any need the older adult has in order to stay as independent as possible in their own home. There are two other community organizations in Seattle providing the village concept: one in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, http://widerhorizonsvillage.org and one in the Phinney Ridge neighborhood, http://www.phinneycenter.org/village/. Another model that another island is doing is Vashon Household Homeshare program, also a community driven non-profit. http://www.vashonhousehold. org. As part of their overall housing program to keep residents living on the island they also provide a matching service for people who want to offer a home share situation to someone. They pre-screen
and do a background check on both the person providing the home and the person looking to move in. There can be agreements in lieu of reduced or no rent to help with chores/maintenance around the house. Of course this depends on a good match being made and an understanding on how to resolve potential conflicts adequately. There are some good models out there that Mercer Island and other Eastside cities could emulate as our boundaries are set and the prevailing wish of most older residents is to age in place (in their own home). And I don’t expect that desire to change with incoming senior generations. The statistics are there, many of us will probably live well into our 90’s. So if that is true, are there different ways to plan and conceptualize how we age in our own community?

Whispered farewells, best wishes and giggles sent silvery fry on their way down Laughing Jacobs Creek near Lake Sammamish Park April 24. About 50 middle and elementary students, as well as community members and partners working to save the Lake Sammamish kokanee salmon, participated in the sixth annual Kokanee Release, easing dozens of inch-long fry back into their natural habitat. The release is part of an Issaquah Salmon Hatchery program that aims to increase and stabilize a healthy population of the rare, freshwater fish. “The hatchery program bought us time — time to restore the habitat; time to make these natural systems work on their own,” King County Executive Dow Constantine said at the event. “The last fry are scheduled to be released in 2021.” The hatchery program, implemented by the Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife and King County, is primarily funded by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Nearly 30 fourth and fifth graders from Campbell Hill Elementary School, 20 Elizabeth Blackwell Elementary students and four students from Pine Lake Middle School helped re-

an unfortunate casualty of the tight budgets approved in Olympia during the recent recession.” Officials who manage the fund have asked for up to four percent from the funds allocated during the second year of the 2013-2015 biannual budget. The 2015-17 state budget submitted by Gov. Jay Inslee included $75 million for the state Housing Trust Fund Account, up 33 percent over the last biennium. A proposed cap-and-trade on carbon emissions is expected to provide $15 million of the funding, while bonds would be used to cover remaining $60 million.
Eastside advocate State Rep. Ross Hunter (D-48) said he will plead his case to his colleagues early in the current legislative session. “We cannot expect to simply buy our way out of this problem. The housing prices in Bellevue and Redmond have become astronomical,” said Hunter. “We need to be smart about where we build the next wave of affordable housing on the Eastside. They need to be close to bus service, grocery stores and have access to medical care, even if that means we need to provide vans to transport seniors to and from essential services.” The Eastside Human Services Forum has urged residents to contact their state representatives and senators to approve the governor’s proposal of additional tax dollars for the Housing Trust Fund. The investment would allow the state can continue to partner with private developers to keep up with the need for desperately needed housing that serves the most vulnerable members of the community. “The lack of affordable housing and the related risk of homelessness is one of the most pressing concerns in our community,” said Debbie Lacy, coordinator for the Eastside Human Services Forum, a nonprofit coalition that advocates for human services throughout East King County. “As the older adult population grows, so does the urgency for solutions to ensure people have safe, affordable homes for as long as they're able to live independently.”
