Community, youth center project goes out to bid BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
Auburn leaders scrapped their original plan to build a community center at the south end of the Les Gove Community campus last year when it threatened to burst its budget. On Tuesday its less pricey alternative, at the north end, adjacent to the activities center – went out to bid. “This is an important milestone for the City and for the design team of being
able to go out to bid. It has been a race to the finish,” Stan Lokting, principal of ARC Architects, whose firm began design work on the $9 million community and youth center only last November, told the Auburn City Council Monday. Construction starts in August, and the center should be open next June in time for KidsDay. [ more CENTER page 7 ]

● QUOTE OF NOTE:
“This is an important milestone for the City and for the design team being able to go out to bid. It has been a race to the finish.” – Stan Lokting, principal of ARC Architects, whose firm has designed the $9 million community and youth center at Les Gove Park.
Bryant ready to put GOP back in the governor’s seat He has a common name, a busy agenda, and determination to end one of the country’s longest losing streaks in state government. Meet Bill Bryant, a Republican challenger to Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee in 2016. The GOP hasn’t occupied the governor’s mansion since 1984, when John Spellman was in office. Since then, Republicans have lost eight straight elections, the longest such dry spell in the country for the party. Bryant, 54, vows to change all that. The two-term Seattle Port commissioner, who grew up in Western Washington and lives in Seattle, announced last month his intention to run for governor. His campaign will emphasize the need to create middle class jobs, protect and restore the environment, fund education and improve infrastructure for transportation. “We have an incumbent who is not building community. He’s very divisive, hyperpartisan, and we’re not getting anything done,” said Bryant, who visited Auburn and Kent last week on business matters. “Our truck routes are deteriorating, Puget Sound is dying, and our schools are languishing without a sustainable funding source. … This isn’t a Republican or Democrat agenda. This is just about getting some basic stuff done.” As a port commissioner and a business owner, the fiscally-conservative Bryant is in the habit of making deals. His firm helps companies and organizations open, access and expand international markets. His work on the waterfront is perhaps highlighted by the news that Seattle and Tacoma port officials have officially agreed to consolidate operations. All 10 port commissioners unanimously approved the alliance at Auburn City Hall last Friday. The Northwest Seaport Alliance will unify the ports’ marine cargo terminal investments, operations, planning and marketing Mark Klaas

Also the grass on the sides of Mill Pond Drive Southeast, across from Auburn Riverside High School up to 47th Southeast, is not being mowed.

At our state capitol, nobody is talking about reducing taxes. In Kansas and North Carolina, however, tax cuts implemented a couple of years ago are creating jobs and increasing worker wages. In 2013, new North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory (R) felt compelled to turn around the state’s sluggish economy. Lawmakers slashed the state’s top personal income tax rate to 5.75 percent from 7.75 percent,
The White River seems to be running at record low levels, less than 500 cubic feet per second, accord to the R Street gauge. This seems mostly to do with last winter’s record low snowpack and a dry spring, but it also complicates refilling Lake Tapps, which was severely drawn down last winter for repairs to the reservoir and diversion flume. Water is now being impounded at Mud Mountain Lake to help refill Lake Tapps this summer, and perhaps to help with late summer/fall salmon runs. [ more LETTERS page 6 ]
which had been the highest in the South. The corporate tax rate was cut from 6.9 percent to 5 percent and the estate tax was eliminated. The result: nearly 200,000 jobs have been added and the unemployment rate has fallen from the 7.9 percent to 5.5 percent. Most importantly, it has given people in rural areas where the jobless rate topped 20 percent a chance to go back to work. In Kansas, lawmakers reduced the top rate on the personal income tax from 6.45 percent to 4.9 percent. [ more BRUNELL page 6 ]

to strengthen the Puget Sound gateway and attract more marine cargo for the region. Bryant knows as much. The alliance, he said, will enhance the Puget Sound market, and protect and add jobs. But $700 million is needed to upgrade docks at Elliott and Commencement bays, Bryant pointed out, making it important for the ports to shoulder the improvements in a coordinated way. And to allow for a greater volume of business and traffic, vital truck routes outside the port gates need improvement, he said. “If we don’t modernize the docks for the next generation of ships, those ships will go to Vancouver (B.C.),” Bryant warned. Other matters: On education: There is no single solution for funding education, Bryant said, but property tax equalization needs to

be part of a “tool box” approach to repair the problem. He stresses that education needs to be the spending priority out of the general fund, and that the education system needs to be reformed to meet the needs of students in the
21st century. On wages: Bryant is concerned about a statewide minimum wage because the economies are so different. “What’s appropriate in King County,” is not elsewhere, he said. Bryant opposed an immediate, absolute $15 minimum wage for workers at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. On the environment: Bryant was criticized for supporting Shell oil rigs docking along Seattle’s waterfront in preparation for drilling off Alaska’s North Slope. The Bryant campaign called the Shell fight “entirely symbolic” and defended the port’s environmental record.
Despite the controversy, Bryant insisted he has a reputation for being able to work with environmental and labor communities, protecting jobs and the Sound. Bryant knows he has a fight on his hands. His is working to make inroads throughout the state, but perhaps none is more significant than swaying voters in King County. Gubernatorial races are often decided here by the populous, predominately blue-blooded vote. Bryant knows he won’t be able to carry 60 percent of the vote in the county, as he did when he ran for port commissioner, but he’s trying to make more believers come late 2016. “It’s daunting,” he confessed, “but I’m well known around the county. I’ve worked in Auburn, in Kent … in communities on economic development, transportation, small business and tourism issues. “I’m very comfortable with where I am in King County.”

They also eliminated the income tax for small business owners who file as individuals, a broad group that includes sole proprietors, limited liability partnerships and S-corporations. Since then, hourly wages have grown by 3.5 percent compared with the national average of 1.9 percent, and the unemployment rate has dropped to 4.2 percent. In contrast, Washington’s statewide jobless rate in April was 5.5 percent, with 80 percent of Washington counties reporting unemployment rates above the national average.

While critics complain that the Kansas tax cuts have blown a hole in the state budget – $344 million in the 2015 fiscal year and $600 million in the next – the North Carolina reforms, which included changing the state’s unemployment tax system, generated a $400 million revenue surplus. According to the Heritage Foundation, North Carolina’s former budget director, Art Pope, says one difference between the two states is that, “we cut spending too. Kansas didn’t.” Kansas is betting that more private sector jobs and tax revenues from economic growth will produce the same revenue surpluses. Cutting taxes is politically risky.

The CDC estimates that antibiotic resistance causes two million illnesses per year in the U.S. and 23,000 deaths. It also adds $20 billion per year in health care costs and $35 billion in lost productivity. While government agencies reduce antibiotics in animal products, the rest of us can do better immediately with wholesome vegetables, fruits, legumes, grains and a rich variety of plant-based meats and cheeses. All these foods contain all the nutrients we require, without the deadly pathogens, antibiotics, carcinogens, cholesterol and saturated fats. – Sal Sucher Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback (R) was roundly criticized by liberals, who tried to convince voters that higher taxes are a price that must be paid for progress, yet he beat back Democrat challenger Paul Davis in last November’s election. In North Carolina, McCrory faced armies of protesters when he proposed cutting taxes and reducing unemployment benefits. But the bottom line is reforms in both states are working. As Brownback explains: “If your objective is to grow the economy, would you rather put more money into government, or leave it in the hands of small business?” Don C.

OLD GYM PARTY Alumni, family and friends on Saturday visited the Auburn High School gymnasium, The Pit, one last time before its planned demolition this summer. The Auburn Public Schools Foundation threw the party, a program that included music, a photo booth and a raffle. The demolition is part of the last phase of the Auburn High modernization and reconstruction project. The new gym opens for students in September.
ORDER AND DETERMINATION BY THE DIRECTOR Washington State is experiencing a drought emergency. We have record-low snowpack in the mountains, and snowmelt through the spring and summer is what traditionally keeps rivers flowing, crops watered, and fish alive. We are starting to feel the pain from this snowpack drought. Impacts are already severe in several areas of the state. More than 70 percent of the state's snow monitoring stations have record-low snowpack. As a result, many of our major rivers are forecasted to have record-low flows - the lowest in the past 64 years - between April and September. This shortfall is a serious threat to municipal and domestic water supplies, irrigated agriculture, and fisheries throughout Washington. With the concurrence of Governor Inslee and following consultation with affected Indian Tribes, I hereby expand the drought emergency to include all of Washington State. Snowpack conditions across the state have continued to decline since the initial regional drought declaration on March 13, 2015. Dozens of major rivers are at record-low flows for this date. The longer-term weather forecast is for warmer and drier-than-normal conditions for this spring and summer. Conditions are likely to get worse. Reduced snowpack creates risks to municipal and domestic water supplies. The Department of Health has identified numerous water systems throughout the state that draw water from shallow alluvial aquifers, which are dependent on groundwater recharge from snowmelt. Agriculture faces a risk of crop loss throughout the state. Farmers in the Yakima and the Walla Walla basins are being curtailed, which could have devastating impacts on orchards and vineyards. Curtailment is likely to occur in the Little Spokane, Nooksack, and Chehalis basins, and could occur for the first time ever in the Colville Basin. Loss to perennial crops in these regions would be a significant hardship to individual farmers and agricultural communities. Throughout the state, there is a high risk that fish populations will experience hardship from extremely low flowing rivers this year. Hatcheries will face warmer water, increased risk of disease, and potential loss of water supply. Tributaries and smaller streams may drop to levels where stream channels become impassible to fish. Pools of water will become disconnected from other pools, isolating fish and increasing the risks of predation and harassment. Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of RCW 43.838.405, IT IS ORDERED that all of Washington state is hereby under a drought emergency. This order is effective immediately and shall remain in effect through December 31, 2015, unless terminated prior to that date. In accordance with the provisions of WAC 173-166-060, the Department of Ecology may, under the terms of this order, take the following emergency actions: (1) Issue emergency permits for water. (2) Approve temporary transfers of water rights. (3) Provide funding assistance to public agencies to alleviate drought conditions. (4) Take other actions depending on future developments. Other state and local agencies with authority to issue permits or authorizations related to the drought emergency actions must provide a decision to an applicant within fifteen (15) calendar days of the date of application. In accordance with the proclamation of the Washington Governor, dated January 3, 1989, (Centennial Accord), nothing herein shall impair or infringe upon the treaty reserved rights or governmental authority of any federally recognized Indian tribe nor shall this order be deemed an assertion of state authority over Indian reservation lands. The Department of Ecology intends to work cooperatively, on a government-to-government basis, with all affected tribes. Further details about this order or the actions available under it, may be obtained by contacting: Jeff Marti, Department of Ecology, PO Box 47600, Olympia, WA 98504-7600; 360-407-6627; Email: jeff.marti@ecy.wa.gov Applications for emergency water permits or temporary transfers of water rights are available by contacting one of the Department of Ecology's regional offices: • Northwest Regional Office; Bellevue, WA; 425-649-7020; Email: arha461@ecy.wa.gov • Central Region Office; Yakima, WA; 509-575-2597; Email: sueb461@ecy.wa.gov • Southwest Regional Office; Lacey, WA; 360-407-6859; Email: oday461@ecy.wa.gov • Eastern Regional Office; Spokane, WA; 509-329-3541; Email: awat461@ecy.wa.gov DATED this 21st day of May, 2015 Maia D.

Kerbs, Wuerch make it all possible at Auburn Riverside BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@auburn-reporter.com
Robotics brings bright young minds together to learn, promote teamwork and answer the call for better technology for tomorrow. Claire Kerbs and Kyle Wuerch know as much. The Auburn Riverside High School students are aspiring engineers. Kerbs and Wuerch, two of the top seniors in the Ravens’ class of 2015, discovered the risks and rewards of working with robotics – in the classroom and on the competitive stage. Such an exercise brought out the best in them. It accelerated learning beyond the syllabus. “It’s hands-on work, not just from a book, and it is problem solving with others,” said Kerbs, who plans to study mechanical engineering and minor in music at Washington State University in the fall. “You’re rebuilding a lot. … You’re running into unexpected problems.” Nothing they can’t solve. Wuerch, for one, wants to learn more. Like Kerbs, he is taking his act to college,
others and to have integrity. … Good people play tennis. They’ve been role models who have helped me develop here. “Everything seemed to work out for me,” he said of his experience at Auburn Riverside. “I enjoyed the culture of the school … and the opportunity to do a lot of things.” Kerbs made the most of her time at the school. She participated in mechanics and music, and shone in both. She also participated in cross country, where she was a senior co-captain last fall, and ran track.

Spanish, the infamous mark that kept him from a perfect 4.0. “My parents don’t like A-minuses. It stresses me out that we don’t have extra credits so I can’t raise my grade. My parents stress how important grades are to continuing my education in college, and they are very excited to see me start at the UW in the fall,” Wade said.

I love the labs that we do in chemistry, and the curriculum is great.” He wants to study science, biology or chemistry in college. “I want to be a pediatrician. Being in the medical field is my whole deal,” Wade said. He credits his parents,

Her favorite class has been DECA, which taught her everything she knows about business. “It’s given me real-life experience and school experience, and it’s really helped me narrow my choice, made me want to pursue business. It’s helped me speak in front of crowds, where I used to be really nervous. My teacher, Miss Jacobs, really helped me out. She’s driven to help kids in and out of school,” Wall said. This year Wall was named Washington DECA member of the year “There are 11,000 people in DECA in Washington, so being named the top person was pretty cool,” she said. Her ambition is to be a buyer or purchaser at Nordstrom, or to run public relations for some sports team in the area. That’s a lot of ambition. “My mother and father didn’t go to college,” Wall explained. “I have an older
Avery Wade is his smile. Infectious, radiant, about as constant as a smile can be. Here’s a guy smiles even when he isn’t smiling, laughs easily, dances when he eats – “you just take a bite, do a little movement here and there” – practically glows. Indeed, it would take some doing not to like Wade right away. And to keep from marveling how a guy can be so happy all the time. “I don’t know how to explain it,” he said, smiling. But beyond the smile is a young man driven to succeed, one who has spent his high school years building up the academic and sports chops to make success happen. On top of carrying a 3.98 grade point average he has been involved in basketball, football and track for all four of his years at Auburn High. He hopes, he said, to walk onto the University of Washington track team
sister, and in raising us, our parents made it their mission to have us get good grades and go to college, and set a new example in our family. My older sister is the first person in my family to go to college.” Indeed, her parents have been behind her every step of the way. “They barely missed any of my soccer games over the past 14 years or so that I’ve played. They’re always there at award nights. They’re always there to encourage me at anything they can go to. They’re always saying, ‘You can do it,’ and encouraging me when I doubt myself,” Wall said. Wall said it’s been exciting to be a member of the first class to graduate from the new Auburn High School. “It’s been an adjustment,” she said. “It’s been weird having things that work.”

For some kids, the big three high schools in Auburn are too large, too crowded – too much. And in those big pools, such kids can lose their footing and sink. Such was the case for Claudia Flores and Alberto Corro. “Bad grades, no motivation from teachers,” Corro, 20, recalled of his experience at Auburn High School. “I was being dumb; I just didn’t
Corro explained what West Auburn did for him. “I looked at different opportunities, saw people going here. I got involved here. It was a big change. I saw my grades going up, and there was a lot of support from teachers,” said Corro. “At Auburn High, the classes were bigger, and there was not much time for individuals. Down here, the classes are smaller, they have more time to help every student out. When I started here – I always knew I was good with my hands – I got into woodworking and automotive. And then I got further into math. I love everything about it. I love doing math,” Corro said.

want to go to school anymore,” Flores said of Auburn Riverside High School. That was before either had made the decision to try West Auburn High School. On Saturday the duo accomplishes what neither would have expected of themselves only a few years ago – graduation from high school. The pride of their 2015 class. Each with dreams to pursue. Flores is set on attending Green River College on her way to becoming an occupational therapy assistant. Corro plans to attend a community college in south Seattle and become a mechanic.

www.auburn-reporter.com [ MOUNTAINVIEW from page 1 ] awkward, shy and quiet, but over the past four years I really opened up and gained a lot of confidence,” said Lavine, who is bound for Washington State University to study computer science in the fall. “I feel a lot more comfortable because of the environment that we have here,” Lavine said. “I’ve had a lot of great teachers who helped guide me. … They taught me a lot.” High school also brought out the best in Shirley, who plans to attend Arizona State University to study business communication in the fall. “I felt like I left my legacy here,” she said. “I did what I wanted to do while I was here. I got to the point where I was well respected by my peers and my teachers. I got involved in ways I wanted to.”
Lavine and Shirley represent two of the very best in Auburn Mountainview’s class of 2015. Commencement ceremonies begin at 11 a.m. Saturday at Auburn Memorial Stadium. Lavine, son of Angie and David Lavine, excelled in the classroom, posting a 3.9 grade point average in accelerated course work, and in the pool as a fouryear varsity swimmer who
finished fourth in the state 3A 100-meter freestyle final last season. A lifeguard, Lavine teaches swim lessons. He also blossomed as a leader, working in student government and as a mentor for the Lion Crew program. Strong in match and science, Lavine naturally became interested in computers, where he understands and speaks its complex
language. One day he hopes to bring a good tech idea to a small startup company. The technology trade exhibits his sound, problemsolving skills. “It’s trying things over and over until they work,” he said. A well organized and resourceful leader, Shirley enjoyed her multifaceted role in representing
students and the school. Shirley, daughter of Chris and Dan Shirley, is a 4.0 student who shone in student government, DECA and Lion Crew. She played four seasons of soccer, the last two on varsity, was named homecoming queen and helped organize and volunteer for many school and community functions. Those business and organizational opportunities will
serve her well as she pursues a career. She might one day become an event planner. “Personally, I have a good vision for how I want things to look, and to look good. I want to bring that to other people and to help them,” she said. Shirley appreciates what the school has done for her. “I have had great mentors who really helped me get to where I am today,” she said.
[ WEST AUBURN from page 10 ] So she was nervous. But none of the bad stories turned out to be true. “It was different here. Everybody seemed to know each other and get along. At a bigger school, you can only have a few friends, and you don’t know the rest of the people. Here, you know just about everybody. It made a big difference. As soon as I got here I got involved in ASB because some of the girls encouraged me to get involved. It made me become a more open person. I’ve always enjoyed meeting new people, it’s just made it a lot easier. Academically, it’s also a lot easier. I can go at a slower pace. And if I miss school, it’s easier to catch up.”

So I asked Mr. (Luis) Chavez for advice, and he made a few suggestions on how to make it better.

Auburn student wins contest Valeria Moskalenko, an eighth-grader at Rainier Middle School, designed an eye-catching, fun rendering of children basking in the sun, but doing so safely. Her design was selected among the thousands of entrants throughout the state as the Environmental Protection Agency’s 2015 Washington State SunWise with SHADE Poster contest
winner. Moskalenko’s image shows children frolicking in appropriate attire, and Washington-resident orcas getting into the action. As the winner, Moskalenko received sun safety kits for her school. Her design will grace the EPA’s website for years to come. Moskalenko’s winning design was celebrated at a pep assembly.
