Maxwell Campbell, 3, and his mother, Kendra Campbell of Klahanie, stood by June 11 as crews worked on the Sammamish Community and Aquatic Center, set to open in 2016.
Robert Young has lived in Klahanie with his wife and children, now grown, for nearly 30 years. He was part of the initial push to annex into Issaquah, which failed twice before the city signed over the potential annexation area to Sammamish in mid-2014. In February, the Sammamish City Council put the annexation to a vote, which passed with 86 percent approval and nearly 50 percent voter turnout. With a majority in the election, Young was hoping the Sammamish City Council would make the merger official sooner rather than later. While the city had said in past newsletters it was aiming for an Aug. 1 annexation date, SEE ANNEXATION, 5

A group of Sammamish middle and high schoolers came together with the goal of inspiring a million children and teens to donate their creative talent for a social cause. As part of that goal, they’re now publishing a book of student artwork available in print and electronically. “Art is an essential part of life,” 17-year-old Cata Raggi said. “We can’t create a solution without creativity.” The Tesla STEM High School junior, along with her peers, created a collage of 55 students’ artwork from more than 30 communities within King and
Pierce counties, called “40 Story’s: Youth Voices United for Change.” When someone purchases a copy of the book, proceeds will be donated to other nonprofits that fight hunger or promote youth programs around the world. Before you judge the book by its cover, yes, the authors know the title is misspelled — and yes, they did it on purpose. The nonprofit Creative Children for Charity, founded by 14-year-old Chirag Vedullapalli in 2009, wanted the book to stand out on the shelves, but also wanted to imply some ownership of the artwork inside. It’s not just a collection of stories,
but a collection of someone’s stories. Published in January, the book took longer than Vedullapalli and his team originally anticipated back in February 2014, when they were first getting started. When the city of Sammamish did not agree to sponsor the project, he and his team took to their parents’ rolodexes. Skyline High School Rohini Mettu, 15, said the experience of asking for money and support, and facing rejection, was “a bit scary,” but gave her invaluable life skills. “After joining (Creative
The city of Issaquah has begun habitat restoration work on the east fork of Issaquah Creek.

The restoration — costing about $1 million in funds from the city, the King Conservation District and the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office — began last week with the clear grading of the fork out of the bank in the upland shore of the park. “Right now we’re handling the excavation

Contract signed for next city manager BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
The Sammamish City Council officially approved the contract for its next city manager during its regular meeting Tuesday evening after a roughly 20-minute executive session. Deputy City Manager Lyman Howard will take over when City Manager Ben Yazici retires in February 2016. Howard’s base salary as city manager will be $181,158.25. This will be an increase of about $4,400 from his current salary.
Yazici, who has been city manager for the past 14 years, currently earns a salary of $193,598.57. Howard was named deputy city manager in 2011 after joining the city as its finance director about a decade ago. He was the only candidate for the city manager opening, Councilmember Nancy Whitten said Tuesday. He will begin his role as city manager March 1, 2016.

Accidental house fire causes traffic delays BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
An accidental house fire in the 2900 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway, which caused traffic delays June 11, began near the barbecue on the back porch of the residence, King County Fire Investigators determined. The residents’ insurance company is investigating the exact cause, according to Detective Jason Houck with the King County
Sheriff ’s Office. He said the house is unlivable until repairs can be made. Flames damaged much of the west side of the twostory home’s exterior and the attic before firefighters extinguished the fire about a half hour after arriving, EF&R Battalion Chief Craig Hooper said. The Redmond Fire Department was the first to respond, after residents called in the fire at 1:26 p.m. Eastside Fire & Rescue arrived shortly thereafter.
King County Assessor’s Office records indicate that the property is valued at $1.98 million. The Parkway briefly closed June 11 while firefighters gained control of the fire, according to the city of Sammamish. Both lanes reopened around 4 p.m., but traffic was moving slowly. The fire was located more than a mile north of Inglewood Hill Road between Northeast 30th Court and Northeast 28th Place.

Silence in Olympia
I
f silence is golden, a lot of wealth is stockpiled in the state capitol, where lawmakers and the governor are mum on progress in reaching a deal on a new state budget. Thursday was the 51st day that the Legislature was in special session — that’s one-and-two-thirds extra sessions — and only 12 days remained to reach agreement to avert the first-ever state government shutdown. This is all reminiscent of 2013, when a clash between House Democrats and Senate Republicans pushed the Legislature through one-and-a-half special sessions — and state government to the same brink. It took lawmakers until June 27 to get a deal. They approved the budget the next day, and Inslee signed it June 30. A similar scenario is shaping up this year. Democrats still rule the House and Republicans the Senate, and they are once again unable to bridge their financial and philosophical differences. They are wrangling over how much money to spend in the next budget — the Rs say $37.9 billion, and the Ds counter with $38.4 billion — as well as where the money will come from. House Democrats insist additional revenue is needed to pay all the bills, and Senate Republicans disagree. If any of the negotiators talked publicly, they’d express frustration, not panic. While it’s long past time for a deal, it’s not too late to get it done, they’d say. They are assembling the hundreds of small pieces of an agreement as they go. Once they settle the big disputes, such as how large a pay hike to give teachers and how deep to cut college tuition, budget writers and their staff will pull an all-nighter to compile everything into legislation, get it proofread and voted on. Any accord would likely ban amendments by individual lawmakers, as was the case in 2013. Before the cone of golden silence came down on the

To the editor So fortunate to have Valderrama-Aramayo When the second annexation to Issaquah vote failed in 2014, the city of Sammamish kicked into high gear with a sincere, well organized and well conducted effort to inform and welcome the citizenry of the Klahanie Proposed Annexation Area to the possibility of becoming Sammamish citizens. The overwhelming approval in the subsequent vote was tribute to a job well done! Ramiro Valderrama was a driving force in this effort. Open houses were held, city managers were available to answer questions, and concerns were addressed. This is the way a responsive governing body should actually work — thanks to Ramiro, et al! Please keep this great team intact — vote for Ramiro Valderrama or re-election to the Sammamish City Council! Dick L’Heureux President, Brookshire Estates HOA
A big Kindering ‘thank you’ to Kiwanis Club I write today in order to recognize and applaud the Kiwanis Club of Issaquah for their steadfast support of Kindering’s work serving infants and toddlers with special needs and their families. Founded in 1962 by five mothers of children with disabilities, Kindering is the most comprehensive neurodevelopmental center in
the Northwest and a nationallyrecognized leader in early intervention services for children ages birth to three with special needs. Kindering’s programs serve over 1/3 of infants and toddlers with disabilities in King County each year and, after opening a second location in Bothell in February 2014, they now reach Snohomish County as well. Kindering also boasts a robust umbrella of services for children in foster and kinship care, children from immigrant and refugee families, and children whose families are homeless as well as customized support for parents, siblings and childcare providers of children with special needs. Says Kindering Executive Director Mimi Siegel, “Decades of research have proven that ages birth to three are the most critical phase of brain development for any child — a onetime opportunity to make a powerful difference.” Kindering is grateful for the support of the Kiwanis Club of Issaquah as they work to ‘improve the world, one child and community at a time’. Kayleigh Williams Development Assistant, Kindering
Perseverance is key, just like with Father’s Day Members of the Issaquah/ Sammamish community have recently expressed their concerns and frustrations regarding a variety of local projects that seem to be moving too slowly for their liking.
This should remind us that many times perseverance will prevail as it eventually did in the observance of Father’s Day. Ironically thanks to the determination of Sonora Dodd of Spokane and others, the Governor of Washington proclaimed a Father’s Day celebration in 1910, however, it was not recognized as a national holiday until 1972. Being patient and understanding will eventually see the issues relating to our communities be accomplished in a positive and acceptable way. According to Farther Time, this might take a while. Have a happy Dad’s Day! Larry Crandall Issaquah

ANNEXATION CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
City Manager Ben Yazici recently said this would strain more than city staff and resources. “We cannot do this annexation on Aug. 1 without jeopardizing service delivery for our current citizens,” Yazici said at a Sammamish City Council meeting June 2. “It’s just not possible to do that. We cannot amend our contracts; we cannot hire the staff members; we cannot get the police officers on board.” Therefore, Yazici recommended a Dec. 31 annexation date. In the interim, however, he is working with King County so the city can begin certain projects this summer, like care for Klahanie Park and patch some roads. The major commitment the city made to Klahanie
residents prior to the election was to lower taxes — which will happen in 2016, regardless of the annexation date. The other promised services will require the city to hire additional staff, purchase additional resources and straighten out all the paperwork. The city also needs six more police officers, only three of which will be available by January 2016. But Young argues Klahanie residents would be fine annexing earlier. “It’s no problem. We’ve been doing it for 35 years as it is,” Young said. “What difference does a few months make?” Young, along with other Klahanie residents, shared this opinion with the council during public comment June 2. If the city annexes in August, Klahanie residents could vote in the November
election, in which three city council seats are up for grabs. Ramiro ValderramaAramayo has pushed for an earlier annexation date, while the rest of the council has shown favor to waiting. Another point discussed at the June 2 meeting dealt with the nearly $3 million the city expects to receive in revenue this year, if the area is annexed by August. Young referred to it as missing out on “free money,” as the city would not collect additional revenues this year if it annexed by January 2016. Valderrama-Aramayo said it does not make sense to pass up on that revenue.

Annually, city staff have projected an estimated $6.5 million in annual revenues with the addition of Klahanie’s properties. Of that, the city expects to see $1.4 million in net gain annually after subtracting the costs for services. The city council’s second reading, where it will set the official annexation date, will take place at its July 7 regular meeting in Sammamish City Hall at 6:30 p.m. The Klahanie annexation area, roughly 2 square miles, is populated with about 11,000 people, bringing Sammamish’s total population to a little more than 60,000.

What Does Thermography Reveal?
How do you know if it is a good time to buy or sell?
Thermography reveals areas of inflammation in the body, as well as nerve or circulatory issues at their earliest stage of developing disease. It offers the best opportunity for proactive disease prevention. Examples are cancers (breast, thyroid, prostate, uterine, colon, etc.), fibromyalgia, heart disease, carotid artery inflammation, periodontal disease, TMJ, diabetes, spinal misalignment, sports injury, lymphatic congestion, digestive disorders, sinus issues and more. Be proactive with your health and prevent disease before it has a chance to damage your health.
There are three things that dictate determining if it is a good time to buy or sell a home:

The Fourth of July — Independence Day — is right around the corner. But one day, you’ll want to be able to declare your own Financial Independence Day. Here are a few suggestions to help you along the way: First, control your debts. It’s not always easy, in this day and age, to keep a lid on your debt level, but the less you owe, the more you can invest for the future. Also, invest early and often. As an investor, JOE BILSBOROUGH time is your greatest ally. The more years in FINANCIAL ADVISOR which you invest, the longer you’ll have for your investments to potentially grow.

With time, effort and a strategy, you may find your financial independence.

Children for Charity), at school, I’m more confident at speaking to my classmates,” she said. “I just feel more confident leading a group of people.” The group originally came together under the guidance of Vedullapalli’s mom, Chaitra, who promotes teaching youth the necessary qualities to be a leader. She uses Search Institute’s “40 Developmental Assets” framework, which was founded in 1990 and identifies a set of skills, behaviors and relationships necessary for youth to mature into
adults and leaders. The artwork within the book is a visual representation of the artist’s interpretation of these various assets, like an image of a stick figure family holding hands overlaid on hearts to depict family support. Similarly to Mettu, the other group members said their confidence has risen, but there are other benefits to working on the project. Twelve-year-old Souptik De, a sixth grader at Evergreen Middle School, said the experience has helped with his time management skills. After raising the necessary funds and collecting the artwork, the next challenge was finding a publisher.

The print edition of “40 Story’s.” Many publishers said this student project was an insane idea, Chaitra Vedullapalli said. But Sammamish publisher Bryan Heathman took it on, as his company, Made For Success Publishing, specializes in these type of projects. The group met every Sunday and spent about three hours a week on individual assignments. They envision the book being used in classrooms as a way to teach youth
about the leadership framework. “A lot of kids don’t get a chance to experience being a leader at their young age,” Raggi said.

proceedings, House Minority Leader Dan Kristiansen, RSnohomish, offered his survey of the landscape. Noting that the Legislature is made up of 147 free agents, he said the challenge each budget cycle is figuring out how to help every member feel they got something out of the process. Two years ago, it wasn’t easy. The budget was more constrained, and the politics more inflamed, with the rise of the Republican-controlled Majority Coalition Caucus. The delay was predictable. Kristiansen didn’t expect it would wind up as contentious this year and had predicted adjournment on time in April. But even though the economy is rebounding and Democrats and Republicans share similar priorities for where to spend the money, they still can’t agree on how much spending is enough. Kristiansen said that when he’s met with majority leaders in each chamber, he asks them to “set aside the (lawmaker) names, set aside the party labels and talk about the wins we’re going to get this year.” There will be a historic increase in funding for public schools, as well as a sizable boost in money for mental health services and early learning. State workers and teachers will get their first state-funded pay hike in years. An unprecedented reduction in college tuition is likely, he said. “I look at them and say there’s a whole bunch of winners here, and you’re still fighting for more,” Kristiansen said. “Let’s just call ‘uncle,’ both of you.” That would require them to lift the cone of silence. Given the weight of gold, it might take a few more days to muster the muscle.

Eastside Catholic teen Giuliana Sercu scoops muddy drinking water into jugs during her trip to Ethiopia.
A world with clean water BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
In a town called Dawo Kara, Ethiopia, an Eastside Catholic teen walked for miles with barefoot women and children to the muddy stream for their drinking water, where cows and other wildlife wade. It was February 2014. By the end of Giuliana Sercu’s trip, as part of
Water1st International’s program to bring access to clean water to people around the world, a water facility had been installed and she was able to see what a faucet could do for a community. “It’s just a world of difference for them,” Sercu said. “Girls can go to school rather than walking all day to collect water for their families.” This year, Sercu joined more than 700 walkers at the
Seattle Carry 5 Walk for Water event May 31, an event that brings awareness to the daily struggle women and girls endure in order to bring water to their families. Sercu, who raised $7,750 for the event, has been listed as one of the event’s top fundraisers for the fourth year in a row. This year, she formed an Eastside Catholic High School team, and, including the money she raised, the team collected about $8,400. The team took turns carrying a 5 gallon container of water on their backs, something Sercu experienced on her trips to Ethiopia. She had visited the country once before, with her mother, in 2011. The desire to help was spurred when a Water1st presenter came to her school in seventh grade. She participated in her first walk that year and has volunteered in the Seattle Water1st offices in any way she can. “I would just go and lick envelopes or something,” she said.
Page 7
She was passionate about the project, as it was not just about giving women educational opportunities. “It’s not like they were going to get clean water,” Sercu said. “Really, the water they’re walking to get is killing them,” she said. The organization also helps bring toilets and hand-washing stations to communities, in an effort to teach proper hygiene and stifle disease. Sanitation near clean water sources is one of the hot-button hygiene topics.
“If you have clean water but you’re going to the bathroom in your front yard, there’s still going to be disease,” Sercu said. Since 2011, Sercu has raised somewhere around $30,000 for the Water1st cause, she said. “(This experience) will always be a part of my life,” she said. Since the nonprofit Water1st began in 2005,

Donations, volunteers, sought for Tools 4 Schools BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
The Issaquah Schools Foundation is looking for donors and volunteers to help distribute school supplies to students in the Issaquah School District. For the past four years, the Tools 4 School program has handed out backpacks stuffed to the brim with school supplies to children in the district. The amount of supplies given out reaches 1,000 per year. For some perspective on that number, in
November 2012 the district enrolled nearly 18,000 students — that’s more than one in 20 students who rely on donations to start the school year prepared. “The Foundation is all about lowering barriers to academic achievement for every student in the Issaquah School District,” Executive Director Robin Callahan said in a press release. “Many of our students simply need basic supplies to achieve school success.” The Foundation is looking for supplies, money and manpower:
Some Some people people talk talk about about doing doing great great things. things. Others Others just just do do them. them.
Backpacks and school supplies can be delivered to the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank on 179 First Avenue S.E. Donations can be sent via www.isfdn.org or sent by check to P.O. Box 835. Volunteers can sign up by contacting Tools 4 Schools Chair Krista Holmes at krista@isfdn.org. The supplies will be handed out 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Aug. 22 at Eastridge Church. In addition to school supplies, students can have a complementary lunch, a haircut and a free dental screening. Eastridge Church is located at 24205 S.E. Issaquah Fall City Road. Tools 4 School is a program of the Issaquah Schools Foundation’s Healthy Youth Initiative. Daniel Nash: 425-391-0363; dnash@issaquahreporter.com
Fireworks organizers seek donations for food bank Local real estate agents John Kritsonis and Karl Lindor have organized a July 4 fireworks show over Lake Sammamish for sixteen years, asking for funding from lakeside neighbors. This year, they’re asking those neighbors to additionally send donations to the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank for a new heating and air conditioning system. The two have pledged to match donations up to $5,000. “These guys are going out of their way to make a difference for our community members who are in need,” Food Bank Executive Director Cori Walters said. Donations are asked to be sent to 179 1st Ave. S.E. in Issaquah. -Daniel Nash

Eastlake senior quarterback Mark Whitley unleashes a pass to one of his wide receivers during a spring football practice session on June 5 at Eastlake High School in Sammamish. Whitley started just three games at quarterback in 2014 and performed well under presssure.
Flashback to September 2014: Eastlake Wolves junior backup quarterback Mark Whitley entered the game after Eastlake senior starter Blue Thomas went down with an injury in the second quarter of a nonleague game against the Gig Harbor Tides. Whitley, who hadn’t seen much varsity action as a signal caller, turned in the game of his life connecting on three touchdown passes in Eastlake’s comeback 24-21 win in the third week of the regular season. Whitley hit tight end Rudy Gonzalez on a 78-yard touchdown pass with 4:20 left in regulation giving the Wolves a 24-21 lead they wouldn’t surrender for the rest of the night. Whitley may have started just three games at quarterback as a junior, but this fall he will run the show as a senior signal caller. Eastlake head coach Don Bartel said Whitley is a “team” guy who possesses all the intangibles the coaching staff search for in a leader. “When you know you’re the guy (starting quarterback) it is such an advantage coming into the season. We’re excited for him,” Bartel said. “Mark is a competitor and he’s already
got his own set of goals of what he wants for the season and how he wants our season to go. His whole consideration is to do whatever he can to help this team. That is what I love about him as a leader. It is going to be awesome.” The Wolves finished the 2014 season with an overall record of 7-4. The Bothell Cougars defeated Wolves 45-14 in the first round of the Class 4A state playoffs on Nov. 14. Whitley said losing to Bothell twice in 2014 is something his team hasn’t forgotten. “When I think of last year I think of the Bothell loss because it is the one that ended our season,” Whitley said. “We lost to them in the first week of the season too. Losing those games just drives us even more this year because we know they’re the defending the state champions. They are also a KingCo (league) team. We want to beat them. It’s just pure motivation.” Bartel said the Wolves coaching staff is pushing the Wolves during its spring practice session. Temperatures hovered around the low 80s for most of the week. “We pushed them hard as we’ve ever pushed them on the first day of spring pracSEE FOOTBALL, 14

stress the speed of play to make up for that. If you always go full speed at 100-percent good things will happen, even if you didn’t do everything exactly right.” Bartel echoed Whitley’s sentiment. “If we got a 100-pound kid running full speed he is going to knock the piss out of people. We don’t talk a lot about hitting hard, we talk about speed of play, aggression and angles to the ball. We think if we naturally play the game hard and with confidence that we will hit hard and make big plays,” Bartel said. “We have gotten acknowledgement from some of the team’s opposing coaches last year that we were probably the hardest hitting team they’ve played all year. That is something our kids can hang their hat on.” Whitley said one of the strengths of the 2015 Wolves is the hosses up front on the offensive line. Eastlake center Jacob Kaufman and right guard Connor McCabe anchor the offensive line. “We have a really good offensive line and that is really important especially with the dual threat system we run where I can run and pass,” Whitley said. “Those two guys really know how to play and are going to lead the guys around them.” Whitley said he wants to see his team go as far as they can on the gridiron this fall. “We just want to win games. We want to
have a shot at the KingCo title and beyond that we’re going to try to get to places we’ve never been before,” he said. The undisputed leader of the Wolves tries to remain as stoic as possible on and off the field. “Being the starting quarterback is a big responsibility. You have to stay within yourself,” he said. “I know that if I freak out then everybody else is going to freak out. I just got to stay within myself, take responsibility and lead this team the way I know I can.”

tice and they have responded. The guys have showed up and are ready to play. It has been fun to watch,” Bartel said on June 5. “The older guys led with enthusiasm and the younger guys were opened minded and ready to go. The guys are just flying around the field.” The Wolves may not have superior talent across the board like many teams in the KingCo Conference but they have always been known for packing a powerful punch and being one of the hardest hitting teams in the state on both sides of the ball. “It’s no secret that we’re not the biggest team around,” Whitley said. “Our coaches really
