Redmond police officer takes robbery suspect into custody A Redmond police officer located a robbery suspect and detained him downtown on the morning of July 9. According to Redmond Police Department (RPD) Cmdr. Charlie Gorman,
the suspect robbed a 7-Eleven store employee at knifepoint in the Overlake area of Bellevue (near the Redmond border) on the afternoon of July 8 and fled the scene. RPD officers set up a
perimeter and helped Bellevue police attempt to locate the suspect. On July 9, Gorman said the RPD officer noticed a man matching the suspect’s description and took him into custody.

When 17-year-old Ayanda Chisholm looks at who is represented in mainstream media, she sees a number of groups missing, including people of color, women, the LGBT community and people with disabilities. So as an aspiring filmmaker, she wants to make sure their stories will be told. “I would like to add perspectives that have not been shown,” she said. Chisholm, who graduated from Garfield High School in Seattle but is currently staying in Redmond before she moves to New York to attend the Digital
Ayanda Chisholm’s short film “Black Beauty in the White Gaze” earned her a scholarship from Adobe. SAMANTHA PAK, Redmond Reporter Film Academy, was recently named an Adobe Creativity Scholar (ACS) and received a scholarship to help her further her studies. She was one of 25 students worldwide to receive the honor for 2015. As an application for the scholarship, Chisholm submitted a number of short films she had produced through Reel Grrls, a non-profit organization in West Seattle that focuses on empowering young women
from diverse communities to realize their power, talent and influence through media production. The piece that was chosen and honored from Chisholm’s submission is called “Black Beauty in the White Gaze.” The film is about a minute long and she said it examines black beauty and how it fits into the world’s more Eurocentric (white) definition of beauty.

Redmond through many different lenses Michelle Abelev
When I was little, community never meant anything more than a large group of people gathering together in a single vicinity. More so than not, I believed that the gatherings were uninteresting, mainly geared towards the adult audience. It was only then that I heard about Derby Days. After having lived in Redmond my whole life, you can imagine my surprise when I found out that Redmond had an event that encouraged fun for children and teenagers. We’re constantly told from a young age to restrict ourselves, to contain our urges to run, scream, anything that may be seen as socially unacceptable. And yet, here’s an event that almost calls for those actions. As a young child, I was thrilled, ecstatic even, to be a part of a celebration that motivated the intermingling of people that would have normally never been involved with each other. Some would almost describe it to be the event of a lifetime. Any kid could only dream of a place where restricted acts became the norm. Derby Days became an event that I counted down to every year, even when I entered high school. Admittedly, my perception of Derby Days has shifted quite significantly. I began to notice a lot more than just the children’s activities: the carnival, parade, local booths that advertised reliefs for homeless shelters; everything seemed so different compared to when I was 6. It only took me a few more years to get involved with the planning and volunteering in Derby Days itself. At the age of 14, I finally became a part of

an event that inspired me from childhood, and I took it upon myself to inspire others. It had been around this time when community service became a passion, and I knew that I wanted to continue on a path where its provision would be large. Volunteering at Derby Days definitely was not something I would call easy, and it gave me a newfound respect for the individuals behind planning the entirety of the event. Yet, I also took something incredibly important out of the experience: some of these kids will end up being as interested as I had been. That very fact pushed me onward in my endeavor with Derby Days. Now, at the age of 16, I was no longer behind the lines of the event or in a multicolored t-shirt with “VOLUNTEER” printed across the back. I sported a model camera only to take pictures and interview individuals for the Redmond Reporter. After having seen Derby Days through the eyes of a child, a high schooler, and reporter, I
lived Derby Days through various lenses, and every lens had something special that I could take away for the future. To a kid, it’s an event where all of the rules at home can finally be broken. To a teenager, it’s a place where friends can meet together, but to a reporter, you see Redmond as how it is: a community. Derby Days elicits a community morale that many other events fail to provide, and after having attended for almost 10 years, the morale only spreads to greater lengths. This year, Derby Days celebrated its 75th anniversary, and considering the hard work that the city of Redmond put into the event, children and adults can count on 75 more years of inspiration and dedication. Michelle Abelev is 16 and a Redmond resident who will be a senior at International Community School. She has spent the last two weeks job shadowing at the Redmond Reporter.

Preserve the Nokomis building In response to your article, “Old Nokomis building may find a new home in Redmond,” which appeared in last week’s issue, neither myself nor any member of the Nokomis Club participated in any discussion or decision to move the building elsewhere. Although at my own initiative in February 2014, I spoke with Bart Phillips, CEO of OneRedmond, the purported owner of the Nokomis building, and twice with Redmond’s historic preservation officer. No further conversations with any official about the Nokomis building, Redmond’s first library building, ever took place. Anxious to settle the Nokomis building matter, the mayor, acting on his own volition, convened an exclusive meeting on June 29 with two representatives of the Redmond Historical Society. On July 7, a staff report the mayor had requested was delivered to the City Council, who then voted to move the building away from Redmond’s historic downtown. The council meeting was held just two days before the Nokomis Club appeal began in protest of the city’s decision to allow demolition of the Nokomis building. The council’s decision to move the building far from the original location that made it important jeopardizes its eligibility as a nation-
ally registered historic place according to Greg Griffith, deputy state historic preservation officer with the State Department of Archeology and Historic Preservation. The Nokomis building has been eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places for 17 years. Because historic preservation is a national program administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Nokomis building’s status gives it the same protection against adverse conditions, such as relocation, as a nationally registered historic place. Since there has been absolutely no discussion with me about the building disposition by any city official, the Nokomis Club has never negotiated or agreed to any financial arrangement regarding relocation. In fact, the City of Redmond’s adopted Comprehensive Plan states in policy CC-30: “Acquire historic properties when feasible.” The property, once the back garden of Irene and Alfred Brown’s home, was donated specifically for Redmond’s first library building. The site is as significant as the building itself. Let’s save the Nokomis Building for community use as the women of the Nokomis Club of Redmond have long desired.
Alexa Munoz President of the Nokomis Club in Redmond
Thank you for printing my letter about the campaign kick-off for mayoral candidate, Steve
Fields in your July 10 edition (pages 4 and 5). I was somewhat taken aback by the editor’s note added into my submission as it directed readers to the Nokomis story on pages 2 and 3. I did not consent to the insertion of the note, which was bad enough. In addition, the story regarding the Nokomis building was not accurate in reporting the commentary and decisions of the Redmond City Council during their July 7 meeting. During that council meeting, Rosemarie Ives, former mayor of Redmond and community activist spoke during the “Items from the Audience” segment about the Nokomis building and read a few selections from the roughly 25 pieces of correspondence sent to the city, including stories of children from Redmond Elementary being escorted from the school to the building (at that time used as the town library). Women were granted the right to vote in 1920 and just 14 years after that in 1934, the women of the Redmond Nokomis club petitioned the WPA for funds to build the second portion of the building — the library. It was noted in Ives’ speech that not only is the building of historical significance, but the property as well. Council members on the whole were supportive of the move, however it was very clearly stated that the city would only be donating the park property if the funds for moving the structure were privately raised.

Vote ‘yes’ on Props. 1 and 2
Redmond is a great place to live, work, play and raise a family! Our lovely city has received multiple awards and recognition for livability and for our outstanding parks and trails system. Redmond has ranked near the top of a number of “Best Places to Live” lists for the past few years. We voters have an opportunity to keep Redmond great by investing strategically around the city to improve neighborhood recreation and walkability. The mayor and City Council have placed a parks levy on the Aug. 4 primary election ballot. The levy, called Proposition 2, would increase property taxes for six years by $0.07 per $1,000 of assessed valuation — that’s an increase of $36.16 per year for the median Redmond home yes, less than the infamous “latte per month.” Your tax increase may be higher or lower depending on your home’s assessed value.

Vote ‘no’ on Props. 1 and 2
Have you looked at your property tax bill lately? The city has put forward Prop 1 (safety) and Prop 2 (parks), which will add a total of $174.50/year or $14.50/month to the median homeowner’s tax bill. The levies focus on new sidewalks, fixing potholes, fighting the “recent increase” in property crime and renovating four neighborhood parks. Currently, the city tax on a $474,000 assessed home is $705.55 or 15 percent of the total tax bill of $4,736. If the propositions were approved, the city property tax would increase by approximately 25 percent. Personally, I don’t see a significant rise in property crime in my neighborhood or deteriorating parks and roads that would justify such a large

suggested that the amount necessary to move, stabilize and make the building functional for public use was “a rather high cost” for a building that is “not a landmark, but a building of historic interest.” Mayor Marchione clearly stated that there would be a time limit in which the funds (for moving the structure) would need to be raised in order for the city to continue the donation of the park land and that there would be no delay of the permitted project by Natural & Built Environments (NBE) while the funds were being raised. NBE has offered to spend roughly $40,000 to incorporate “elements and materials from the Nokomis building” into the new development. A placard and a few pieces of lumber in a meeting room is a poor memorial to the women of Redmond who provided the town with its first library. The city may feel that $600,000 is a “high cost” to maintain a piece of our city’s history, but losing our past is a price that we should not be willing to pay.
ton School District student. I’m an active volunteer in the community and I have served on the Redmond Parks and Trails Commission for more than five years, including serving as chair and vice chair. I’m passionate about parks and outdoor activities. I believe shared resources like parks, trails and recreation facilities help define a community and keep its residents happy and healthy. The proposed new levy dollars are a means to catch up on a backlog of park projects. There is a long list of planned projects (new parks and improvements) and not enough money in the budget to pay for them. Parks costs grow with inflation. City real estate tax revenues can grow no faster than one percent per year without voter approval (Washington state law). Thus, the need for the levy. The levy will pay for improvements in neighborhoods and community parks around Redmond: Two new parks on undeveloped city land in underserved neighborhoods in North Redmond and Southeast Redmond; much-needed upgrades to Idylwood and Westside Parks, improvements at Farrel-McWhirter, Grasslawn, Cascade View and Reservoir Parks; increased park security and maintenance at Grasslawn, Idylwood, Hartman, Perrigo and Anderson Parks during the busy summer months and maintained funding for youth programs. As Redmond grows, we need more parks and trails. We also need to maintain our existing parks and trails. Everyone in Redmond should be within walking distance of a neighborhood park or trail for recreation. The city has a track record of successful, award-winning and fiscally responsible park construction and improvements. They include Phase I of the Redmond Central Connector, construction of the Redmond Bike Park and renovations and improvements at Hartman, View Point, Willows, Idylwood, Spiritbrook, Grasslawn, and Farrel-McWhirter parks. I’m confident that the levy projects will be of similar quality and value. I’m voting for Proposition 2 on Aug. 4 because it will keep our parks and trails clean, green and attractive. And that makes Redmond a great place. I hope you will join me in voting “yes” on Proposition 2.

Redmond’s Jack continues volunteer her journeys aboard the Africa Mercy SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
For many years, Kristin Jack worked at Starbucks. But after a while, she wanted to shift out of corporate America. So she joined Mercy Ships, an international, faith-based nonprofit that provides free life-transforming surgeries wherever its ship — Africa Mercy — docks. Jack, who grew up in Sammamish and lived in Redmond for nine years, has been with Mercy Ships since May 2013. She initially signed up for a four-month stint, but chose to extend her stay on the ship after that. “I kept adding,” she said about her time on the ship, adding that she is committed through January 2018.
Kristin Jack has been back home in Redmond for the last few weeks during her break from volunteering with Mercy Ships. She returns to the Africa Mercy Aug. 11.

Redmond resident, Kirkland lawyer sentenced to prison for embezzling from clients
ONEREDMOND FOUNDATION ACCEPTING PROPOSALS TO ACTIVATE DOWNTOWN STREETS The OneRedmond Foundation is seeking proposals to create new or enhance existing events and programs that activate street life
and nearly $63,000, with the client received nothing. When detectives met with Boddy at his attorney’s office he admitted to obtaining more than $290,000 in settlements for clients and either never paid the clients their percentage or obtained the settlement without their knowledge and pocketed the money. The King County prosecutor wrote in court documents that the amount alleged by Boddy’s clients is much greater than Boddy’s claim. Many of the clients reported that they had hired Boddy in 2009 and were misled regarding their settlements as recently as 2013. Police have obtained statements from at least 13 separate clients with similar claims, the documents continue. Boddy has since resigned his Washington State Bar License as a result of action taken by one of his clients. His defense attorney, Joshua Andrews, said that his client plans to go into real estate when released.

UNPAID POSITIONS
As previously reported in the Redmond Reporter, Jack and the rest of Africa Mercy’s crew are all volunteers. In fact, she said, they have to pay their way to be on the ship. In addition to the ship’s medical crew, there are also volunteers who support them, which is what Jack does. She is currently a sales manager and event planner onboard. Jack oversees the ship’s on-board, donated Starbucks as well as a small convenience store used by the 400 or so
crew members onboard, who represent more than 40 nationalities. “It’s like a little village,” she said. Jack’s role also includes organizing events and activities for the crew to give them an opportunity to let go and decompress from the stress of their jobs. For Jack, she has found her dream job, which she did not know existed. She learned about Mercy Ships from a friend who had volunteered as an operating room nurse with the organization. Jack said she has been able to use her skills to make an impact and help others — restoring value to the lives of people who had been told they were worthless.
AN OPPORTUNITY TO HELP
And while Jack’s role on the ship has been indi-
Redmond has invested in the infrastructure and community facilities to support active street life. Now, the OneRedmond Foundation wants to activate these city venues, both public and private with more events, music, arts and activities that bring people out of their homes to create a vibrant, lively and connected community.
For more information and questions, contact Bart Phillips, OneRedmond CEO, at bartp@oneredmond.org or (425) 8854014. Proposals must be received by July 28 to be eligible for consideration. Proposals received after the date will not be considered in this current funding round.

A Kirkland lawyer and Redmond resident has been sentenced to 3 1/2 years in prison for embezzling more than $430,000 from his clients from March 2010 to September 2013. Personal injury attorney Brian Kirk Boddy, 51, plead guilty to felony theft charges after telling police he stole the money to maintain his lifestyle, according to court documents. Boddy, who was in the midst of a divorce, said that he and his wife had grown accustomed to a lifestyle that generated living expenses of $40,000 per month. King County Superior Court Judge Mary Roberts also sentenced Boddy to pay $430,991 in restitution on May 28. “He stated that at one time his practice was lucrative enough to support this lifestyle but when his income began to falter he began using money he obtained from client settlements to cover the gap,” the documents continue.
Boddy was hired for various personal-injury cases against insurance carriers. Some of the victims were led to believe their cases were ongoing when a settlement had already been reached. Boddy did this by allegedly forging client signatures on documents. Detectives were able to confirm that checks were received and deposited into a bank account under Boddy’s name. In one case, a client was advised to settle but she refused. Boddy settled the case without her knowledge for $12,000. The $7,850 due to the client was never paid. The client eventually found out from the insurance carrier about the settlement and that the check was issued to Boddy. In another case, Boddy represented a woman injured in a car accident who had accumulated thousands of dollars in medical bills. The client never received her portion of the $175,000 settlement. Boddy reached settlements in two other cases in the amounts of $154,000

rectly helping those Mercy Ships serves — providing support to the medical crew — she was able to directly help in one particular case this past year. A few months ago, a man in his 60s named Sambany walked three days from his village to the town in Madagascar where Africa Mercy was docked last year. For more than 30 years, he had lived with a tumor growing out of his face. Jack said it has grown to be about 16 pounds and Sambany just showed up at their ship in the hopes that they would be able to help. “He traveled for days to get to us,” she said. The medical team onboard conducted several tests on the tumor to determine whether or not it was cancerous and then operated on Sambany. Jack said it was a 14-plus-hour surgery, during which the patient lost a significant amount of blood. As they were on a ship, Jack said the hospital’s blood bank was the crew. It took 17 blood donors to get Sambany through his surgery and Jack “got to be one of those (donors).” “All of us were able to keep him alive,” she said.

gotten to know the guys from NEEDTOBREATHE and they have been talking about musical collaborations between the two bands.

Switchfoot, who are from San Diego, have played in the Pacific Northwest many times, but Butler said this will be their first time playing Marymoor. The band has played a number of Seattle venues including the Showbox and the Moore Theatre, as well as other venues around the state such as the Gorge Amphi-
theater in George. “We love Washington,” Butler said. “I grew up listening to music out of Seattle.” He listed Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden — frontrunners in the 1990s grunge movement that put this area on the musical map — as some of the bands he enjoyed. And while Butler has some really good memories of performing here, such as
hearing the entire crowd at one concert singing along to their songs, he is particularly looking forward to tomorrow’s performance. He said one of his favorite things to do is playing music outdoors during the summer. “I like being underneath the stars,” he said. “Music sounds better outdoors.” One outdoor performance in particular that Butler and his bandmates take part in
every year is Bro-Am, an annual concert and surf contest Switchfoot puts on to benefit homeless youth and other local causes in their hometown of San Diego. “It’s our favorite day of the year,” Butler said. This year’s event was July 11 and included perforAnytime. Anywhere. mances from Switchfoot, Any day... the rest of the compadres currently on tour with them as well as Brynn Elliott.

[CHISHOLM from page 11] tunities for young people Patricia Cogley — manager of the Adobe Youth Voices (AYV) program (which ACS is an extension of) — has been in the youth media field for 15 years and said Chisholm’s piece talks about representations of beauty in a beautiful and stark way. Cogley added that Chisholm also understands the power of imagery. “Her piece really did stand out,” she said. “It’s a really great piece.” Cogley said ACS is for students who have participated in AYV programs such as Reel Grrls. The scholarship provides oppor-
who are committed to pursuing a life where “creativity is vital to their career path,” she said. Youth are encouraged to create media addressing topics they are passionate about, which can range from the environment and family to identity and race. Cogley added that they also encourage the organizations to showcase participants’ work at events such as screenings, in order to start a dialogue within the communities. AYV serves about 50,000 young people per year in about 60 countries worldwide. The programs are for teens 13-19 and those who
have left the programs are eligible to apply for the ACS scholarship. Cogley said the scholarship is to go toward higher education. Adobe contributes $1 million to the scholarship fund and the amount recipients receive range as college and university tuition around the world varies. Cogley added applicants must be in good academic standing and prove financial hardship as well. For Chisholm, applying for the scholarship couldn’t hurt. “College is expensive and I figured, why not?” she asked.

Redmond-based Chris Elliott Fund kicks off EndBrainCancer Initiative Redmond-based Chris Elliott Fund (CEF) recently launched a new EndBrainCancer Initiative at the Plateau Club in Sammamish as part of its 14th Annual Chris Elliott Fund Educational & Celebrity Golf Tournament and “Brains Matter” Awareness Auction & Celebration Dinner events. Joining CEF founder and president Dellann Elliott Mydland for the launch were keynote and inspirational speaker Michael “Wanz” Wansley and sports celebrities Jim Zorn, Nesby
Glasgow, Michael Jackson, Chuck Young, Slick Watts, Cam Cleeland, Alonzo Mitz, Randall Morris and Mark Lee. The $3.5 million, threeyear initiative is designed to effect change in how brain cancer patients are treated and improve survivorship through immediate and expanded access to advanced treatment, clinical trials and critical care. A key element is increasing access to DNA sequencing/genomic profiling of tumor tissue, including the MGMT marker test, so that treatments can
be matched to the specific genetic make-up of the patient’s tumor. The initiative will also enable CEF to meet the growing demand for its services for primary and metastatic brain tumor support. Patient inquiries have increased almost tenfold in the past four years from 800 to 7,200 monthly, fueled by CEF’s enhanced online presence, its Patient Support Services and Call Center, a growing reputation among national industry leaders and practitioners, and strategic partnerships.

oil-based paints, automotive products (oil, antifreeze, lamps, etc.), fluorescent bulbs/tubes and other items without a charge. The service is pre-paid through garbage and sewer utility fees. Created in 1989, the Wastemobile was the first traveling hazardous-waste disposal program in the nation. It is operated by the Local Hazardous Waste Management Program and goes throughout the county from spring through fall. Residents help protect the environment and public health by safely disposing of the hazardous materials and keeping them out of drains and landfills. Since first hitting the road, the Wastemobile has collected more than 16,000 tons of hazardous household-waste from more than 450,000 customers. The Wastemobile is now part of LightRecycle Washington, a program to safely collect fluorescent tubes and bulbs that contain mercury. The program is funded through an environmental handling charge that is included in the retail price of these types of lights. The Wastemobile also provides free reusable products to the public, such as oil-based paint, stain and primer, plus wood care and cleaning products. These products are subject to availability, and residents must sign a release form prior to receiving the materials.
City’s summer lunch program now underway
Summer is a great time for vacations, outdoor fun and just relaxing at the beach. For some kids, however, it means that the free or reduced breakfast and lunch that they received at school is no longer available. The City of Redmond, Hopelink, PCC Natural Markets and Open Kitchen have partnered to help anyone have a free lunch this summer. The city has worked with the community the past four years to see that lunch is available to those who need it. The summer lunch program began on July 6. The program will run from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, through Aug. 28. It will be located at Sunset Gardens Park at 18304 N.E. 95th St. just off Avondale Way. There will be enrichment games and activities starting at 11:30 a.m. and lunches served starting at noon. It is on a first-comefirst-served basis, but there is usually plenty of food. Everyone is welcome. “There are schools in Redmond that have 30-45 percent free and reduced lunch students and this is a way to make sure they have a place to go for lunch,” said Ken Wong, teen programs administrator for the City of Redmond. For those who would like to help or make a donation,

RPD offers Paws on Patrol crime-awareness program
Paws on Patrol is a crime-awareness program that encourages dog walkers throughout the area to assist as “extra eyes and ears” in the ongoing crime prevention efforts of the Redmond Police Department (RPD). There are dozens, if not hundreds, of dog walkers throughout Redmond at all times of the day. These walkers are often preoccupied with texting, emailing, music and phone calls during their neighborhood walks. We simply ask that you be alert to your surroundings and any suspicious activities happening while on your walk. The RPD will offer a free training program from 6-7:30 p.m. Aug. 11 at the Redmond Senior Center, Room 109, 8703 160th Ave. N.E. Well-behaved dogs are welcome and each dog will go home with a “Paws on Patrol” bandana. The program trains you how to effectively observe and report criminal activity as you are routinely out in your neighborhood. Those who know the neighborhood best (you) now become more aware and less hesitant to report suspicious activity. Ninety percent of police arrests are the direct result of a citizen’s phone call. For more information, visit www.redmond.gov/ paws or contact crime prevention@redmond.gov or (425) 556-2541.

Hopelink selected to provide financial coaching services when they first sit down with her. “They are fearful — especially when it comes to such a personal topic as finances — because more likely than not they have been met with judgment and criticism in this area in the past,” she said. “But when a client begins to reclaim their power to make informed financial decisions, there is a transformation.” According to the CFPB, millions of consumers are economically vulnerable, including the 49.1 million people living below the poverty line, and the more than 68 million who are financially underserved. These consumers are the most likely to lack access to traditional financial services. In-person, individualized and trustworthy guidance can help these consumers make good financial decisions and reach their financial goals. The initiative will provide financial coaching services at critical points in consumers’ lives as they move along the path to financial stability. The program helps veterans as they transition from active duty status as well as economically vulnerable consumers seeking other services from social services and other providers. All of the nonprofit organizations selected to host financial coaches for economically vulnerable

consumers also provide services that complement financial coaching, such as job training and education, social and housing services. The coaches hired for the program have experience working with the populations they will help, are accredited by the Association for Financial Counseling and Planning Education and have been trained in financial coaching techniques.
The CFPB is the nation’s first federal agency whose sole focus is protecting consumers in the financial marketplace. Using its multiple authorities, including regulation, supervision, enforcement, market research, financial education and the authority to deal directly with consumer complaints, the CFPB is working to restore trust in consumer financial products and ser-

Financial stress can be a challenge for anyone, but for a lot of low-income people who don’t have access to trusted financial services and information, just knowing where to turn for advice can pose an added burden. Redmond-based Hopelink has been selected by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to participate in the federal agency’s Financial Coaching Initiative, which provides for a full-time financial coach to help with their financial goals. Hopelink was chosen as one of 20 “host sites” nationwide in a competitive process that garnered 160 applications. Another 40 sites across the country — including two in western Washington — will serve veterans. Donna O’Connor, Hopelink’s new financial coach, said financial stress can create a “barrier to progress” for a lot of people who have never learned about such things as banking options and budgeting basics. “Financial education is essential — you can’t be expected to make informed decisions if you don’t have the information,” O’Connor said. “But how well one integrates and applies the instruction is the key to success.” She said a lot of clients don’t know what to expect
