Incumbents look good in primaries
Fun for all at Sammamish Days

If the first round of results for the Aug. 5 primary election mean anything, they mean incumbents don’t have much to fear this election cycle. All five candidates representing Sammamish in the Legislature have healthy leads over their opponents. All of the same names were going to appear on the November ballot no matter the results. Washington has a top-two primary system, and all five of the Legislative seats on the ballot had only two candidates. However, the August results can help give a sense of who the frontrunners are. Perhaps more importantly, a lopsided result can scare off donors from the candidate on the short end, while a close race could mean more money flowing in. Results of the mail-in election will be finalized Aug. 19. See ELECTION, Page 3
Lake Washington School District approves budget By Ari Cetron
With little comment or discussion, the Lake Washington School board unanimously approved a budget for the next school year at its Aug. 4 meeting. The board had discussed the $378 million spending plan at its June 23 meeting when it heard a presentation on the draft budget. The vast majority of the district’s funding, about 64 percent, comes from the state. Local levy dollars represent about 22 percent, federal funding 5.5 percent, and the rest comes from fees and other sources. The Lion’s share of the budget is the $271.9 million general fund. The general fund pays for the vast majority of the district’s expenses, including day-to-day operations and employee sala-
ries. The district expects to see about $17.1 million more in revenues for its general fund. Of that, $7.5 million will come from local sources, $8.2 million from state funding, and the rest from grants and fee-based programs. Overall, revenues are projected to go up by 6.7 percent to $273.4 million. General fund expenditures would go up by 5.1 percent under the plan, Posthumous said, largely because more students keep coming to Lake Washington schools. About $3.8 million of the general fund increase of $18.3 million is related to the staffing needs to accommodate the increased number of students. The district will add more than 66 new positions next year, not including classroom teachers.
On the web For details about the budget, including links to current and previous budgets, visit http://www.lwsd.org/ News/publications/Pages/ Budget-Summary.aspx. (Teacher funding is dependent on enrollment, and comes directly from the state, so adding a new teacher is not a district expense.) The district is predicting total enrollment to increase from 25,571 this year to 26,367 next year – an increase of 796 students (3.2 percent). The budget calls for purchasing a new curriculum for specialeducation literacy, and printing costs to support that program. It
also calls for adding an administrator to support all curricula on a district-wide basis. More funding is set aside to allow a seven-period day in high schools; develop a kindergarten and first-grade program for gifted students; and allow common advanced placement classes in all high schools. The district also wants to explore alternatives to suspension as a form of discipline, and includes funding for allowing in-school suspensions. Funding is also set aside to meet a state mandate to increase annual instructional time to 1,027 hours per year, Pierce said. The budget would increase high-school athletics directors’ positions from a 0.8 position to a full-time position. It calls for hiring new counselors, nurses, custodians, field crews and a pair of
mental health/social workers on a contract basis. The budget would pay for 18 new people to help support teachers. These would be skilled teachers who would not be in a classroom, but would offer professional development for district teachers. They include four K-5 literacy coaches, 10 K-12 instructional coaches, two professional learning specialists, and two See BUDGET, Page 3

SAMMAMISH REVIEW
Reard House grant denied Parks Director Jessi Bon shared some bad news with the Sammamish City Council on July 15. The Sammamish Heritage Society is in the midst of renovating the Reard House, a nearly 120-year-old farmhouse, which sits on a portion of what will become Big Rock Park. The house had not been built on the location, but moved there to help save it from the wrecking ball. The house is located on what is known as Parcel B of Big Rock Park. The parcel is still owned by Mary Piggott, and she

One of two contested races on Sammamish ballots was for District Court judge. In that, Lisa O’Toole, of Newcastle, blew away her two opponents, winning 60 percent of the vote. Who O’Toole will face in November remains to be seen. Sammamish resident Marcus Naylor won 20 percent of the vote, while Rick Leo, of
has committed to donating the land to the city, although there is no firm timeframe for the transaction. The heritage society had applied for a $40,000 grant from the Washington Historical Society to help them with their restoration efforts. The grant, however, comes with conditions that cannot be met. First, there must be public utilities available at the site. But the terms of Piggott’s donation generally forbid those, Bon said. Additionally, once the work is complete, the house must be open to the public. Since the city doesn’t own the property, and doesn’t know when it might, it can’t be publicly accessible.

He looks likely to face Jason Ritchie, who’s gotten 32 percent. A third candidate, Keith Arnold got 9 percent.

Sammamish City Manager Ben Yazici proposed the city revise its sewer policy to give more flexibility about when new homes must connect to a sewer line.
Speaking at the City Council’s July 15 meeting, the issue came up during a presentation of the Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District’s Comprehensive Plan. Since Sammamish is inside King County’s Urban Growth Boundary, state law envisions that all properties will eventually be connected to a sewer system. To implement that, Sammamish has a policy, which echoes King County’s, that new construction within 200 feet of a sewer line must connect to the line Property owners are responsible for laying the pipe and making the connection, costs which can sometimes run into very high dollar values.
60-39 margin. Senn was appointed to the Legislature after having been appointed to the Mercer Island City Council, so this is the first time her name has appeared on a ballot. Longtime incumbent Judy Clibborn (D), chairwoman of the House Transportation Committee is also cruising to victory over Alex O’Neil, 75-24. In the 45th District, which represents the northern half of Sammamish, state Sen.
Andy Hill (R) has a healthy lead over challenger Matt Isenhower, 54-46. In House races in the 45th, incumbent Roger Goodman (D) is ahead of Joel Hussey, also by a 54-46 margin. Goodman defeated Hussey two years ago. Larry Springer (D) is doing better than the other two incumbents, ahead of newcomer Brendan Woodward by a 56-44 margin. The general election is set for Nov. 4.
“We have reached an impasse, and we’re not going to meet the requirements of that grant,” Bon said. The society will continue to raise funds for the restoration work on the house. The city has made minimal contributions to the work, which has been virtually entirely funded by donations and grants.

Yazici said the city sometimes has situations where a large property – five acres or more, for example – might have a sewer line near one corner, but the home was built on the other side. Under current regulations, the property owner would be required to bear the expense of bringing the sewer line all the way to the home site. Yazici suggested the council consider changing the regulations to say the change is only required when “feasible and reasonable,” to allow some flexibility. It is unclear when the council might adopt the proposed change.

Review editorial Where were all the no voters? In the past year, voters in the Lake Washington School District twice rejected proposed bonds to help pay for needed school improvements. The reasons were many, but they boiled down to voters not trusting the district to spend the money efficiently. Last week, when the district held its public hearing on the annual budget, there was not one single comment from the public. Naysayers, where were you? It’s a common phenomenon, really. People look at their tax bill and imagine a hundred different ways the government must be mismanaging tax dollars. Yet, when budget time rolls around, they are nowhere to be seen. Here was your chance, folks. If you truly don’t think the district spends wisely, where better to change that than through the budget hearing? For example, people complained about a topheavy administration, but did not complain when the district added two director-level positions, as part of a total of 63 new positions, none of which are classroom teachers. The documents are all there. District staff is and has always been willing and able to answer questions. If there is such waste, surely it’s worth the time to look through the budget, find it and tell the school board what it is. Perhaps people did the work. Perhaps they reviewed the budget, as did this newspaper, and determined the spending was worthwhile and the positions were needed. But if that’s the case, then why oppose the bond measures? What’s more likely is that people said no to new taxes, but don’t want to take on the harder job of figuring out what they should say yes to. If people really want to see change in the way the schools work, they need to remain engaged during the nitty-gritty work (or maybe run for office – there were no contested races in last year’s Lake Washington School Board election, even though one was for an open seat), and not just show up for the big events. People who say no when the district asks for money owe it to the district to explain what they should do instead. The budget hearing was their chance, and they blew it.
Poll of the week
Do you ever read government budgets? A) I do sometimes. B) I don’t have the time or interest. C) I don’t need to read it to know they’re wasting money. D) No. Isn’t that what newspapers are for? To vote, visit www.SammamishReview.com.
OPINION
SAMMAMISH REVIEW
Sammamish Forum Mayor misses the mark In an attempt to save face in his op-ed last week regarding justification for his demeanor at a recent city council meeting, Mayor Tom Vance was too selfaggrandizing. He never addressed the issue; that he was impulsive, improper, and overbearing to Sammamish citizens who were greatly concerned about an issue the mayor and the city were willing to overlook in hopes of maintaining a political position with a senior branch of government. He owes the citizens an apology and an intention to better handle emotional events with decorum (proper behavior that shows respect and good manners) in the future. We can’t forget his spoken “cost of coffee” comment, which with his guard down tells what he really thinks of the citizens he serves. Yes, that was hostile and in a moment of non-thinking (demonstrated more than just a few times) his true self was revealed. He has previously said he only wanted one term as a Councilman.

Keep guns away from domestic violence abusers I’m writing to express my support for Congress and our U.S. senators to take action and protect women from gun violence and domestic violence. Women are at an unacceptable risk of gun violence in abusive situations. According to FBI statistics, more than half of people murdered by their intimate partners were killed with a gun. Current law doesn’t go far enough to protect women. As the law stands, women who are in an abusive dating relationship, as well as victims of stalking, can’t have law enforcement prevent their abusers from having guns. The Senate just had its first
hearing on the links between gun violence and domestic violence, but much more needs to be done. Congress needs to take action immediately to change the law to protect women from gun violence. Unfortunately, our local congressman, Dave Reichert, is not supportive of gun control legislation, so I urge all those who care about this issue to write to him, to let him know that there are many members of his constituency who care about women facing danger in domestic violence situations, and to ask him to show support for legislation to prevent all domestic violence abusers from having access to guns.

Please respect people’s right to their political opinions This is an open letter: Please show forbearance, tolerance and respect for other’s views and efforts to communicate those in upcoming elections. We have begun to see destructive actions against political signs on public rights of way and in private locations. People need to understand it is illegal to touch someone else’s political signage, a misdemeanor, in fact, that will get one thrown in jail. In the 2004 election, two individuals were caught destroying my signs and spent time in jail. I could hardly keep one conservative sign intact for more than a few days. Then, I put up a notice next to my sign, “It is illegal to mess with another person’s political sign. This right to free speech is what keeps us civilized and nonviolent. It is the basis for our society. Two people have already gone to jail for messing with this sign. Don’t be a third. Instead, if you have a competing idea, put your own sign up.” That seemed to put an end to

Fire Dash comes to state park The nation’s only firefighting-themed 5K obstacle course is coming to Lake Sammamish State Park at 8 a.m. Aug. 16. The Fire Dash, designed by firefighters, puts participants through a slew of obstacles that test stamina and agility, and make ample use of fire and smoke. The course is likened to a mini fire academy for new recruits. Day of event registration is $98, and includes a
T-shirt, bib and a beer for those of legal drinking age. Participants must be 14 or older to join. Runners can register individually, but teams are recommended to get through some of the obstacles. A portion of all proceeds go to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation and to a local fire department’s benevolent fund. Learn more at www.thefiredash. com. Parking at Lake Sammamish State Park, 2000 N.W. Sammamish Road, is $10 for a day pass or $30 annually for a Discover Pass.

Outdoor burning banned through Sept. 30 The Washington State Department of Natural Resources announced Aug. 11 that it is expanding the current statewide burn ban to cover all outdoor burning on DNR-protected
lands. The statewide burn ban will run through Sept. 30. It applies to all lands under DNR fire protection, which does not include federally owned lands. Hot and dry weather since early summer have caused hazardous conditions, which in turn have caused fires to spread
rapidly and challenged firefighting efforts. All outdoor burning on DNR-protected lands is prohibited under the ban,

ammunition, are illegal on all DNR-protected lands. Charcoal briquettes are also not allowed. In addition, DNR urges

Workouts preparing Skyline soccer team for grueling season By Neil Pierson
The Skyline High School girls soccer team has its sights set on another deep run in the state playoffs, but it’s the work they’re doing during the summer that may hold the key to success. Dozens of Spartans soccer players have been preparing for the 2014 season – which officially stars Aug. 25 with tryout sessions – by spending their summer months in the weight room. They’re not working without guidance. Skyline brought in Kevin Chiles, a professional sports development coach, for a series of twice-a-week workouts that started in mid-July and finish during the week of tryouts. The training sessions are voluntary, and players have paid
a suggested donation of $50 to participate. It’s much different from a mandatory training environment, said Kiara Williams, a former Skyline soccer player who is assisting Chiles with the training program. “Everyone comes because they want to be here,” Williams said, “and they’re actually working hard, which is nice, because then that also shows you the amount of improvement from week to week to week.” From varsity veterans to incoming freshmen, a majority of the players in the Skyline program have joined in at some point. A dozen players were on hand for a 90-minute session Aug. 6, which Williams led in See WORKOUT, Page 14

Local players contribute to Eastside FC’s run to nationals By Neil Pierson
The 2014 season may not have featured a storybook ending, but most of the evidence points to a remarkably successful two-year run for the Eastside FC 98 Red girls soccer team. Head coach Tom Bialek and his 17 players – four of whom hail from Issaquah and Skyline high schools – returned to the U.S. Youth Soccer National Championships last month. The squad won the under-14 national crown last summer, and was looking to repeat the feat in the under-15 tournament, held July 22-27 in Germantown, Md. Skyline players Cameron Tingey, Alexa Kirton and Molly Monroe, as well as Issaquah’s Kaylene Pang, contributed to the run to nationals. The select squad also includes players from Bellevue, Seattle Prep, Tahoma, Jefferson, Holy Names, Kentridge and Mount Si. Eastside wasn’t able to hoist the trophy again, settling for third place after a dramatic 1-0 overtime loss in the semifinals to Jacksonville, Fla., which went on to claim the title. Jacksonville’s Leah Ferlin scored on a diving header in the 110th minute to derail Eastside’s hopes. Eastside finished 1-1-1 in pool play, enough to reach the semifinals, where they had plen-

very demanding and required everything we had to give. “We played our best game overall in the semifinals, and
while we created many good chances and controlled play to a large degree, we never could break through with a goal, though
we did hit the crossbar twice and the post once.” Tingey, an outside defender, said the semifinal match hinged on Eastside’s inability to finish, even though they had the ball in Jacksonville’s end of the field much of the time. “It was tough not to get the outcome we wanted,” Tingey said. “They played really well, but I think we should’ve won that game.” Eastside opened the six-day national tournament with a 2-1 victory over Alliance Academy 99 Black of Grand Rapids, Mich. Eastside forward Makaylie Moore opened the scoring in the 35th minute by dribbling around the keeper and slotting the ball into the net. The Michigan squad tied the score four minutes later. Monroe, the Eastside goalkeeper, was forced to make a difficult save early in the second half to keep the score level. That set the stage for Moore, who scored her second goal of the match with a diving header in the 59th minute. Kirton, whose natural position is central midfielder, shifted to forward for nationals. She credited Monroe for making saves at crucial times. “She’s been injured for quite See FC, Page 14

Chiles’ absence. For some players, it was their eighth training session, and their fitness levels are noticeably higher in only a month’s time, Williams said. “The first couple weeks were a lot of instruction, where now it’s a lot of monitoring and just tweaking instead of fully teaching,” she said. “The whole time it’s muscle-building, but now it’s even more building, getting stronger, instead of learning everything.” The players attacked a rigorous circuit training regimen in the Skyline weight room. Straight arm planks and crunches tightened their core muscles. Squats and presses with free weights and dumbbells strengthened their arms. And a rapid-fire series of step-ups targeted fast-twitch muscle fibers in their legs. All the drills are relevant to success on the soccer pitch, said Kelli Sullivan, a Skyline senior midfielder. “Mainly, it’s just stuff like jumping and different kinds of agility work that’s going to let us explode out

It’s the first time the Skyline players have worked with a professional trainer in the offseason, and they believe it’s going to help them have a stronger start to the season. “Compared to previous seasons without having this kind of program, we’ve been having to work on our fitness level toward the beginning, and so maybe our start in preseason or our conference wasn’t as strong as we’d hoped,” said Kendra Elderkin, a senior midfielder. “I think this program is really going to help us because we can work on skill stuff when the season starts instead of having to focus on fitness.”

Williams may be the kind of role model they need.
