Tully’s first ever drive-thru kiosk coming to Town Center By Reporter Staff

Tully’s Coffee is planning to open a drive-thru store at the former R&R Espresso stand in the Rite Aid parking lot across the street from Mercerdale Park at the corner of S.E. 32nd Street and

78th Avenue S.E. It will be the first drivethru-only store for the coffee company. According to Island resident Scott M. Pearson, the president and CEO of Tully’s, the kiosk will be

Bicyclists beware, or be aware there might be tacks on the I-90 bike trail, big enough to cause flat tires or worse. Commander Dave Jokinen with the Mercer Island Police Department said the department was informed of the situation around Oct. 17. Jokinen said the parks department has cleaned up the trail, and patrol units are on alert to report any suspicious activity. According to the Tom Fulcoloro of the Seattle Bike Blog, the tacks were found on the eastern high-rise of the I-90 bridge where it enters Mercer Island. “People suspect it has happened before,” said. Fulcoloro. “When multiple people are having flats, six or seven, clearly something is going on.” Another blogger, Gary Powell, whose blog is “Bike to Work,” said he bought a magnet stick Oct. 15 to clean up some of the tacks. He picked up a lot of “junk,” but it wasn’t until he reached the east side of the bridge that he ran into some people who had found about 20 tacks, which he then added to his magnet stick. Powell said he did not get a flat, but his friend Tim has hit tacks for the last month. Then, on Oct. 14, about a dozen people ended up with flat tires. “There were people all over with flats,” Powell said. He said the next day he

walked the entire trail across I-90 doing a slow sweep with the magnet. Powell said he lives in Bellevue and commutes to South Lake Union each day by bike. Jason Kintner, parks superintendent for the city, said he has had between six and a dozen emails about the tacks. He notified both the police and the Washington State Department of Transportation. “The Seattle Bike Blog really helped us in this incident,” he said. “The Cascade Bicycle Club has also put out the word to its members.” Fulcoloro notes that simply having a flat tire on a bike is not always a minor event.

Contractors hired by Tully’s have been at the site gutting the tiny building and will be redoing the wiring, flooring the plumbing and even the roof. Tully’s has ordered a new awning.

Insurance company attorneys prepared letter to City Council By Mary L. Grady editor@mi-reporter.com

A letter read at the Oct. 17 City Council meeting by Deputy Mayor El Jahncke was prepared for the City Council to help them avoid any further litigation in the aftermath of the lawsuit between former city employee Londi Lindell and the city. The letter was prepared by the law firm of Michael and Alexander, retained by the city’s insurance company, the Washington Cities Insurance Authority (WCIA). The firm represented the WCIA and the City of Mercer Island as clients in the lawsuit between former city employee Londi Lindell and the city. An earlier story in the Reporter misstated that it was an independent analysis. The letter is an item-byitem review of the major

He said then that he was not planning on selling the business because he believed that when the lease is up in a year’s time, the building

would be torn down. Before Litovkin took over, the stand was owned by Richard Hager and his daughter, Kristin Kevil, who owned and operated the business for 19 years. Pearson and his wife have three daughters. Two of them attend Mercer Island High School, and one is in college.

forbidden by the court to talk about the case until its conclusion. That constraint has been continued by some of the conditions agreed to in the settlement of the lawsuit. Reached by phone in New Hampshire where he is training with FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Pearman said the city wants to be able to talk about the case. “The City Council has been frustrated for a long time because we have not been able to discuss the case in public. “We were of the belief that our side of the story would have been told at the trial which never happened,� he said. “But we did not want to create a situation that would make the city liable,� he explained. “We want to abide by the spirit and the letter of the settlement agreement.� To read the Alexander and Michael letter to the city, go to page 9.

But as the leaves fall, more parks people will be out removing the leaves from the path.

Lew Leigh of WCIA said Mayor Jim Pearman and Jahncke asked the agency for guidance on how they could talk about the case to citizens without violating any part of the agreements made in the case settlement. “The mayor and the deputy mayor called and asked our attorneys, ‘What can we say on the record and not get us afoul of the judge and the [stipulations] of the federal agreement?’� Leigh said. “Our attorneys wrote them a letter and gave them talking points so that they stay within the settlement agreement and the myriad of motions given by the judge,� he continued.

Author Phil Borges to appear at Island Books By Reporter Staff

On Saturday, Nov. 12, at 7 p.m., author and photographer Phil Borges will appear at Island Books to celebrate his book “Tibet: A Culture on the Edge.” Known as the “water tower of Asia,” the Tibetan Plateau is reportedly heating up twice as fast as the global average. Its glaciers are the source of the major rivers that supply the water needs of some two billion people in India, Pakistan,

China and Indochina. Today these glaciers are rapidly disappearing. This climatic change, along with recent unprecedented development on the plateau — roads, railroads, airports, dams and communication technology, is rapidly changing the lives of the deeply devotional nomads, monks and farmers who have lived here for centuries. With stunning imagery Borges brings read-

ers face to face with some of these remarkable people, who live in one of the most fragile environments on earth and face a rapid induction into the 21st century while trying to retain that which they hold most dear — their Tibetan Buddhist practice and culture. The recipient of numerous photography and humanitarian awards, Borges has hosted television documentaries for the Discovery Channel and National Geographic. His photography has been exhibited widely and is in numerous museum collections.

MERCER ISLAND REPORTER | www.mi-reporter.com

Initiative tally Three key initiatives on the ballot this November have had backers spending millions of dollars on media ad campaigns. Here’s our take: Initiative 1125 | Tolls and highway taxes Nobody likes tolls and taxes, but if our state is going to have any hope of building highways and moving people, it’s going to take both. Tim Eyman’s initiative would make both nearly impossible. Eyman wants only the Legislature to be able to set tolls. That sounds good — political accountability and all that — but in reality, it would make financing our roads even more expensive. Bonding companies — and bonds are the only real way to build roads — find it overly risky to leave toll-setting to the whims of legislators. As a consequence, they rate such road bonds lower, which means the state has to pay a higher interest rate. That makes the state have to pay more to finance the road projects. That means fewer roads. Tolls are a user fee; only those who use such roads pay a toll. That’s the way it should be. But don’t just take our word on this; transportation experts across the state oppose I-1125. So do business, labor and environmental leaders. Vote “No” on I-1125. Initiative 1183 | Sale of beer, wine and hard liquor There are lots of things a state should do. Peddling beer, wine and hard liquor isn’t one of them. Vote “Yes” on this initiative. What, you say, didn’t we already vote “no” on this last year? Yes, but the two measures we had before us last year had flaws. This one is far better. The state would stop selling spirits and auction off its liquor stores. Additional private liquor stores could open, but only if they meet a size requirement (no, there won’t be liquor for sale at every neighborhood gas station). Another point: while I-1183 gets the state out of the liquor selling business, it continues the state’s enforcement to keep booze out of the hands of our kids. In fact, the initiative doubles the fines for businesses selling alcohol to minors. Vote “Yes” on I-1183. Initiative 1163 | Training, background checks for longterm health workers This sounds good: shouldn’t long-term care workers have training to serve elderly and disabled people? And shouldn’t we know if they have a shady past? Sure, but the initiative is misleading. In fact, such training is already required by the state. And background checks are already performed. Vote “No” on I-1163. Craig Groshart is the editor of the Bellevue Reporter, a sister paper of the Mercer Island Reporter.

ISLAND

TALK

To the editor Bertlin for Council I am writing to offer my enthusiastic support for Debbie Bertlin. This election is not a simple trade-off of values versus experience. It’s clear that Debbie has both: she has the experience we need coupled with the moral compass that the Council clearly requires. Based on my work with Debbie and my own experience as a leader in technology companies, I have full confidence in the experience that Debbie brings to the table. Beyond business sense and values, Debbie has energy and community support for her platform. She has doorbelled extensively, visiting nearly 2,500 Island voters — her opponent has not doorbelled at all in this campaign. Debbie’s campaign has over 100 donors, while her opponent has less than seven. She has the endorsement of hundreds of people and organizations, including Fred Jarrett, the Sierra Club and the Seattle Times. Debbie understands how critical quality of life is to Island residents. Her opponent has not consistently supported schools and parks, and has openly opposed levies for both. We need a Council that understands how important quality schools and parks are to all of us. Finally, in light of the lawsuit (which resulted in a $1 million plus payout), the Council is clearly in need of change. To date, Debbie’s opponent has proposed no corrective action, and appears to be unaware of how damaging this issue is to the community and city government. Debbie understands the importance of this issue and I’m confident that she will make changes to address it as part of the Council. Dan Grove

Jahncke for Council I have known El Jahncke for over 25 years as both a friend, a fellow MI resident and a business associate within the local real estate industry. El’s acumen in the areas of financial analysis and negotiation have enabled him to rise to the top of his profession as a well respected pension fund asset manager. El has the intuitive skills to quickly and efficiently diagnose problems and develop viable solutions. His confidence and clarity in the decision-making process allow him to work well under pressure. His dedication to our community is exemplary, and I would hope the citizens of MI would recognize the valuable asset we have in El and re-elect him to another term on the Council. Thank you. Russ Cree

Bertlin for Council

through with the Londi Lindell lawsuit, I was gratified to hear the City Council will soon undertake a performance review of city manager Rich Conrad, and the results will be made public. However, my hope that the Council will be able to deal impartially with Conrad is greatly tempered by recent comments made by two of its members: Mayor Jim Pearman and Deputy Mayor El Jahncke. To briefly summarize events, under manager Conrad’s watch, the city amassed close to $1 million in attorney’s fees to defend against former city attorney Lindell’s lawsuit. She alleged she was the victim of sexual harassment and was fired as an act of retaliation. The city’s insurance carrier ultimately settled with Ms. Lindell for $1 million rather than going to trial. Under Conrad’s watch, the city was also fined $90,560 in federal court (and ordered to pay attorney’s fees)

John Talley Edmonds 1929 - 2011

John T. Edmonds, age 81, died on October 13, 2011 surrounded by family at the Evergreen Hospice Center. John cared deeply for his wife and sons and was a man who both valued education and had a keen knowledge of seemingly everything from American History to Mariner baseball. John was born on October 29, 1929 in Houston Texas to his parents William J. Edmonds and Mary Alice (Talley). His father was a chemical engineer and then, at the end of his career, an executive for the Exxon company. At age two, John’s family moved to Boston where his dad was attending Harvard Business School. At four, the family moved to Scarsdale, New York. John graduated from Amherst College (‘51) and then Harvard Law School (‘54). John married Anne Tower in Larchmont, New York on June 30, 1956. During a tour of duty in Korea, John courted Anne with a letter mailed every day and proposed to her from a distance with the help of his dad who delivered Anne’s engagement ring. Before going to Korea, John was stationed in Fort Lewis, Tacoma. John enjoyed the Northwest so much he convinced his new bride to relocate there. The couple moved to Mercer Island shortly after their marriage. John and Anne have two sons and six grandchildren. Son David lives with his family in Renton and Bill, his wife Holly, and their family are in Portland, Oregon. John had an entrepreneurial spirit evident even in his early years. He partnered with his longtime friend Charlie Frey after an East coast wind storm to cut trees from all around his neighborhood – hiring others to help in the work. Charlie would be a good friend through both high school and college before he married Anne’s sister Jane. Immediately after law school John joined the Seattle law firm of Foster, Pepper and Riviera where he practiced tax and estate law. His entrepreneurial spirit took over in 1965 when he joined his architect partner to form L&E Enterprises, a real estate development firm. L&E developed office buildings in Seattle and Denver as well as two shopping centers, Wilderness Village in Maple Valley and Ambaum in Burien. Anne was a school teacher in Pelham, New York and the Seattle area. She taught first, second and third grade for 14 years at Seattle’s Epiphany School. John was a member of the Congregational Church on Mercer Island and the Mercer Island Rotary. He also coached son David’s little league team, taking the Bowles & White team to win the division finals in 1970. John also led Indian Guides for both boys. He was an accomplished squash and tennis player. He played competitively in both sports throughout his life, including many hard fought tennis matches with son Dave. John is survived by his wife Anne, and sons David of Renton and Bill of Portland (Holly), by his sister Nancy of Manchester, New Hampshire (Gordon) and six grandchildren Pam, Sarah, Hannah and Peter all of Renton and Chris and Drew of Portland. A celebration of John’s life will be held at the Congregational Church on Mercer Island on Sunday, October 30, 2011 at 2 p.m. Memorial contributions may be made to the Mercer Island Congregational Church. 537760

Thomas is survived by his parents, Angelique and Nick Phillips of Mercer Island; brother, Nick Jr (age 5); sister, Alyssa (age 4); grandparents, Ken and Robin Phillips of Mercer Island; uncles, Matthew Phillips and Devin Howard of Seattle; and numerous great aunts, uncles, and cousins.

School briefs Meet the new Mercer Island High School principal Patricia Blix, who has been appointed as interim principal of Mercer Island High School, effective Nov. 4, will meet with high school parents on Tuesday, Nov. 15, beginning at 7 p.m. in the library at a PTSA fall membership meeting. For parents and others who prefer a daytime meeting, Blix will be available to greet parents on Thursday, Nov. 17, at 9:30 a.m. during a PTSA coffee in the library presentation room. Blix, a retired education administrator, was appointed by superintendent Gary Plano, after the resignation of principal John Harrison. Harrison took a job in administration with the Bellevue School District. Blix has 18 years of experience in secondary administration. She served as longtime middle school principal in the Renton School District. Blix also served in international schools as a secondary principal in Israel, England and the Philippines. Blix was an interim

principal at West Mercer Elementary from 2006 until 2008. Many of the freshmen and sophomore students at MIHS, and parents, already know Blix from her leadership at West Mercer. Blix is presently studying Spanish on a study trip to Guatemala. Craig Olson is the acting principal until Blix arrives. Superintendent Gary Plano intends to work closely with the high school staff and students, the parent community, and his management team to begin the search process for the next high school principal, whose planned start date is July 1, 2012.

District student enrollment numbers Now that students have settled into their classrooms, the district has reported an accurate head count and a full-time equivalent student count. The two numbers differ because, for example, kindergartners are counted as one-half since they attend school for only half a day. Likewise, some high school students do not need to carry a full load or have

enrolled in Running Start classes. At the elementary level, the head count is 1,801; FTE is 1,554. There are 1,011 middle school students with FTE at 1,003. At Mercer Island High School, the head count is 1,426 with FTE at 1,394. Total FTE for this academic year is 3,951, down from 4,040 in the 2010-2011 school year. Todd Kelsay, the district’s head of transportation, reported an average of 1,900 to 2,000 students using buses each way, per day. This includes metro buses. He said ridership tends to be higher in the afternoon.

School Board to hold joint meeting with City Council, Thursday The Mercer Island School District and the Mercer Island City Council will meet tomorrow, Thursday, Oct. 27, at 5:15 p.m. at the Crest Learning Center, located adjacent to the School District Administration Building at 4150 86th Avenue S.E. The two bodies will discuss the following issues: t .BSZ 8BZUF 1PPM *OUFS local Agreement. t 1BSUOFSTIJQ PO USBOTportation fleets and related

issues. t 5SBGGJD JTTVFT BSPVOE UIF MIHS campus. t 0WFSWJFX PG UIF .*4% 21CFPC Master Plan Recommendation. The School Board’s regular meeting will begin at around 8 p.m. For information, go to www.misd.k12. wa.us.

US News gives silver ranking to Mercer Island HS The U.S. News ranking looked at more than 21,000 public high schools in 48 states and the District of Columbia. Sixteen schools in King County made the list with four listed in the top 100 (a gold ranking), including Bellevue High School and Newport High School. Nine King County schools, including Mercer Island High School, were ranked in the next set and given a ‘silver ranking.’ A three-step process determined the best high schools. The first two steps ensured that the schools serve all their students well, using state proficiency standards as the benchmarks. For those schools that made it past the first two steps, a third step assessed the degree to which schools prepare students for collegelevel work.

The first step determined whether each school’s students were performing better than statistically expected for the average student in the state. Next, for those schools that made it past this first step, the second step determined whether the school’s leastadvantaged students (black, Hispanic and low income) were performing better than average for similar students in the state. Schools that made it through the first two steps became eligible to be judged nationally on the final step, college-readiness performance, using Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate test data as the benchmarks for success, depending on which program was largest at the school. Mercer Island, however, does not require its students to take AP or IB classes or take the exams that are given at the end of the class. Individual scores can be used to waive academic requirements at some colleges.

School district to celebrate 70th anniversary The Mercer Island School District #400 was officially established on Sept. 1, 1941, 62 years after the first stu-

dents started attending East Seattle School at what is now the old Mercer Island Boys and Girls Club. Thanks to a special supplement of the Mercer Island Reporter in February 1998, the district’s history is presented in a timeline from 1879 to 1996, the year that work began on the renovation of Mercer Island High School. The supplement includes thoughts from community members and teachers like this one by Island resident Marian Poirier, one of many school children who traveled by ferry boat to get to high school in Seattle in the 1940s, years before Mercer Island built a high school. “It was fun,� she said. “How many kids get to take a boat to high school?� A special commemoration of the district’s 70 years of outstanding service to young people will be held on Nov. 10, 2011, when former school board members are invited to share in the memories of an Island institution that has become one of the top public schools in the country. The recognition will be held at 7 p.m. in the Board Room at the Administration Center. In 1891, the average monthly teachers’ salary was $50. Eleven pupils were enrolled, and school was taught only 78 days per year.

‘Talking points’ letter distills findings, facts in Lindell vs. City of Mercer Island Here is the complete text of the letter sent to the City of Mercer Island by the attorneys who represented the city and the Washington Cities Insurance Authority in the case between Londi Lindell and the City of Mercer Island. For more background, see the story on page 2. Stephanie R.

Lindell vs. City of Mercer Island Case No. C08-1827JLR Dear Mr. Pearman and Mr. Jahncke: Here are the facts of this case: Main Litigation Facts t .T -JOEFMM GJMFE IFS lawsuit in December 2008. t .T -JOEFMM IBE OFWFS claimed that she was sexually harassed or discriminated against because of her gender while she was employed at the City. In fact, she was the second highest ranking employee at the City when her employment ended, and she was promoted to that position by the City Manager. t "MUIPVHI .T -JOEFMM T lawsuit alleged that the Director of HR had “flashed� her genitalia at a retiring police detective, this statement is provably false, and the police detective has testified under oath that it did not happen. Multiple City employees and witnesses outside the City were pre-

pared to testify that this allegation and many others made by Ms. Lindell were not accurate or were simply not true. t *U IBT CFFO JODPSrectly reported that sexual harassment, discrimination and/or retaliation at the City occurred. There has been no finding of sexual harassment, discrimination and/or retaliation. t *U IBT CFFO JODPSSFDUMZ reported that an investigator hired by the former City Attorney in the fall of 2007 found that discrimination and/or retaliation occurred. That is false. The investigator did not make such a finding. In fact, she made it clear in the two-page document that has been incorrectly referred to as a “report� that she was not finished with her investigation when she drafted that two-page document. She further testified under oath that she had not finished her investigation and that she could not make determinations without several additional interviews, including interviews of the City .BOBHFS BOE UIF $JUZ T HR Director. t *U IBT CFFO JODPSSFDUMZ reported that this investigator recommended that the City Manager be fired. She did not. Her testimony under oath does not support that statement. t 5IFSF JT B WJEFP UIBU was spliced together, which has made the rounds in the community. This video was created by Ms. Lindell and her attorneys using selective editing and misleading captions. This video attempts to make it look like certain things happened that did not actually happen. In fact, the video does not

accurately reflect the facts. t *U IBT CFFO JODPSSFDUMZ reported that the City allowed pornography to be viewed by City employees. This statement is also false and not supported by any actual evidence. Instead, some employees in the maintenance department were viewing an internet video of two dogs copulating and were appropriately disciplined for that conduct. There was no “pornography� at any time, to our knowledge. t 5IFSF IBT OFWFS CFFO and was no finding that a “hostile working environment� existed at the City at any time, including when Ms. Lindell was the City Attorney or Deputy City Manager. In fact, the only “finding� of wrongdoing in this matter was that the City should not have withheld certain documents (see the discussion of the plaintiffs Public Records Act claim, below). t 0OF UIJOH UIBU XBT established in the case was that Ms. Lindell destroyed documents that the City was entitled to receive. t 5IF $JUZ EFGFOEFE JUTFMG BHBJOTU .T -JOEFMM T claims because it did not then, and does not now, believe that the claims brought against it (or any of the individual defendants) had merit. t 8BTIJOHUPO $JUJFT Insurance Authority 8$*" UIF JOTVSBODF company for the City,

Given the complex nature of the case, the insurer decided that this restricted schedule posed an unacceptable risk that the facts would not all come out. The restriction benefited Ms. Lindell, not the City. Public Records Act Facts t 0O .BZ .T Lindell filed with the City a claim for damages form asserting that the city had not complied with the Public Records Act and that she was intending to sue the City for not complying. t .T -JOEFMM IBE not even made a Public Records Act request when she threatened to sue the city under the Public Records Act. t *O IFS 1VCMJD 3FDPSET Act request, Ms. Lindell filed a broad request for information.

LETTERS | FROM 5 for withholding documents from Lindell. As these dominoes were toppling, Mayor Pearman rated Conrad “probably one of the best city managers in the state,� in a July 10, 2011, Seattle Times article. As for Deputy Mayor Jahncke, during an Oct. 18 City Council candidate debate, Jahncke termed Conrad a victim in this whole matter — a victim of Londi Lindell. (Jahncke didn’t mention that Lindell’s lawsuit contended he made sexually inappropriate comments to her. He did, however, note that almost a decade ago Conrad had propositioned a female subordinate. That woman received a $90,000 settlement.) Rich Conrad has been city manager for three decades. I’m sure he’s done

Domestic Violence Awareness month The movement against domestic violence began years ago by offering shelter to victims and their children. Services to victims continue to be critical to ending the violence. In addition, a concentrated effort is now focused on prevention — stopping the violence before it begins. Given that one in three teens has experienced some kind of abuse (physical, emotional or verbal) in their dating relationships, we have some work to do. Prevention efforts center on teaching teens about healthy relationships. While health classes in schools might address healthy relationships and dating violence, the most influential teachers of children are their parents. So what can parents do to help prevent their children from being a victim or a perpetrator of dating violence? 1. Model healthy behavior in your relationships. Our children follow our lead and actually grow up to be a lot like us. If your relationships are unhealthy

Professional. Friendly. Knowledgeable.

or abusive, their relationships are likely to be as well. 2. Talk to your teens about healthy and unhealthy relationships before they start dating. Healthy relationships include mutual respect, trust, honesty, problem solving and compromise. 3. Be available and keep an open home environment so that your children will talk to you about their concerns. When we react with fear or judgment, our teens are less likely to talk to us. Teens deal with issues today that we never thought about, e.g. online rumors, pressure by a boyfriend to text him a nude photo, deciding whether to break up with a girlfriend on Facebook.

MERCER ISLAND REPORTER | www.mi-reporter.com

Island Forum: Support I-1125 I would like to give reasons for supporting Initiative 1125, “Protect Gas Taxes and Toll Revenues Act — Protect the 18th Amendment to Washington’s Constitution.” Tolls on I-90 are a major issue that will have significant implications for Islanders. As I believe tolls Mike Cero on I-90 will challenge many of the basic assumptions making Mercer Island such a wonderful place to raise children and age in place. The Council has made statements opposing tolling on I-90. In a Sept. 26, 2011, letter to WSDOT Toll Division Director Craig Stone and cc’d to Representative Clibborn, Senator Litzow and Secretary of Transportation Hammond, our mayor wrote that our “City Council continues to oppose tolling of any kind on I-90 between I-405 and I-5.” I think Initiative 1125 supports that desire by limiting potential I-90 tolls in scope and duration. Tolls on I-90 are in direct

conflict with Mercer Island’s quality of life. That which limits tolls is in the best interest of Islanders. Why are tolls bad for Islanders? Inexpensive access to Seattle and Bellevue services and facilities is an important selling point of the Island. We can talk about buying local, but the fact is many services we demand can’t be sustained locally. Inevitably, our civil service contracts, negotiated under the shadow of tolls, will carry a “toll premium.” This premium, above COLA and other salary step increases, will translate to higher property taxes. Meanwhile, the specter of I-90 tolls will have a depressing or negative tendency on home values. I-1125 keeps an I-90 toll from becoming an open-ended revenue source for many yet-to-be defined projects. Washington has a long and successful history of financing road projects from which it was collected. Like many successful road projects, I-1125 will limit I-90 tolls to I-90. As an Islander, I could endorse a finite I-90 toll to finance I-90 capital projects. Pay off the project, then remove the toll. I am fond of saying there are

no unintended consequences; there are only ignored consequences. It’s an ignored consequence to think that if an inelastic source of revenue such as an I-90 toll is available for multiple uses, then the toll will be without end and without limit. I am not necessarily practicing NIMBY’ism. State support for I-1125 continues to grow. The Association of Washington Cities (AWC) reports that support for I-1125 has grown from 49 percent in August to 56 percent in September. One reason for this widespread support may be the increased understanding that projects financed through revenue bonds, i.e. tolls, are inherently much more expensive than through general obligation (GO) bonds. I-1125 will not stop regional transportation projects. For over a century, Washington used GO bonds to finance road projects. GO bonds can be up to 3 percent points lower than revenue bonds. I-1125 doesn’t increase the cost of money — it decreases the cost of money. I hope you will. Mike Cero is a Mercer Island City Councilman.

MIHS celebrates Romecoming By Reporter Staff

Mercer Island High School celebrated homecoming last week, ending with the annual parade and football game on Friday night. This year’s theme was Romecoming, celebrating Greek and Roman culture. The football game against Sammamish also featured a

salute to seniors, as it was the last home game of the year. Because it was the last home game, students in all bands throughout the district, from fifth grade through the high school, played in the annual All Island Band Night at halftime. The football team beat Sammamish 45-6.

Boys tennis wins KingCo

Islander girls win second straight KingCo title in tiebreaker By Megan Managan mmanagan@mi-reporter.com

Going down to the last possible second, the Mercer Island girls cross country team won the KingCo conference title last Thursday. Mercer Island and Liberty each finished the race with 49 points, sending the meet into a tiebreaker, in which the placement of the sixth-place runner breaks the time. Luckily for the Islanders, senior captain Mikayla Davis finished ahead of the No. 6 runner from Liberty to give Mercer Island the title. Davis finished in 19th place overall with a race time of 20:34, while Liberty’s Aimee Christensen was 24th overall at 21:12. It was the second straight title for the Islander girls at the KingCo race. The boys finished in third as a team with 94 points, behind Bellevue and Liberty. In the girls race, Katia Matora finished in first place with an 18:40 time, almost a minute ahead of Sammamish’s Pascale De Sa Silva, who finished in

19:39. Alida Scalso was eighth overall with a 20:04 time, while Laura Brindley took 11th place. Lindsay Benster was 14th and Linden Elggren was 15th. Lauren Knebel finished in 21st place. In the boys race, Austin Scarff finished in 15th place with a 17:31 time, and Joey Chiang finished in 17th with a 17:34 time. Brett Bottomley took 19th place at 17:45. Matt Wotipka was 21st, while Daniel Mayer was 22nd and Nathan Gallatin was 35th, followed by Alex Mesher in 36th place. Both teams qualified for the SeaKing district competition, taking place on Thursday, Oct. 27, at Lake Sammamish State Park in Issaquah. The girls race will begin at 2:30 p.m., followed by the boys at 3:15 p.m. The top five teams will advance to the state competition, with the top 25 runners — whose teams do not qualify — also moving forward. The state race will take place on Nov. 5 at the Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco, Wash.

The Mercer Island boys tennis team won the KingCo title last weekend. The team won both the singles and doubles titles during the competition, which finished Saturday at the Mercer Island Country Club. In the finals, Jordan Smith beat Zack Kosanke of Bellevue, by default.

In the doubles championship, it was an all Mercer Island affair with Zack and Ben Elliot facing off against Kyle Baska and Marcus Almqvist. The Elliot brothers won 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 (6) to earn the top spot going into the district tournament. More results will be available online at www.mireporter.com as information becomes available.

Islanders headed to playoffs By Megan Managan mmanagan@mi-reporter.com

For the first time since 2000 the Mercer Island football program will be making a postseason appearance, after wrapping up their ticket last Friday night. The Islanders clinched a place in the postseason after beating Sammamish 45-6 during the annual homecoming game. The Islanders took an early lead with the first touchdown of the night by quarterback Jeff Lindquist on a 59-yard run with 10:35 on the clock in the first quarter. It was followed by another Islander touchdown, this time with quarterback Jeff Lindquist throwing a 32-yard pass to Connor Bernal with 6:47 left in the first to end the first quarter with a 14-0 score. In the second quarter, after starting close to the end zone, the Islanders drove it in, this time on a quick pass from Lindquist to Brent Tsang for a 21-0 game. After holding Sammamish to four quick downs, the Islanders regained the ball and scored again, this time with the combination of Lindquist and Nicky Sinclair connecting on a 13-yard pass for the points. Alex Wood kicked a field goal with just 21.9 seconds

left in the second, to end the half with a 31-0 score. After All Island Band Night at halftime, which included performances from the elementary and middle school bands, as well as the high school, Mercer Island got back into the action with another touchdown. With 9:42 in the third, Blake Johnson scored his first points of the season after a 34-yard run, making it 38-0 for the Islanders. “Jeff came out and really set the table as the quarterback. In the first half, the offensive line — they just dominated and pushed the ball. It was really a team effort. The defense did a great job, they did a nice job. It’s hard to pinpoint one person, but Blake Johnson on the defensive side,” said head coach Brett Ogata of the team’s leaders on the field. Besides the touchdown, Johnson had five tackles during the game. The next Islander to make it into the end zone was Eric Stefanchik, off a 24-yard pass by junior quarterback Brian Higgins with 1:56 left in the third for a 45-0 score. Sammamish made its end zone debut of the night with 6:04 left in the game when James Adams caught a 13-yard pass from Austin Lee, to make the final points of the night.

Despite earning the first trip to the postseason in a decade, Ogata won’t let the team look too far ahead. “We’re really just trying to focus on getting better for the next week,” he said. “We’ll get to that game when we get to that game, but right now we have to worry about Lake Washington.

All The Best Pet Care celebrated Halloween on Friday, Oct. 21, with pet portraits of dogs in Halloween attire. Part of the proceeds of the $30 sitting fee will benefit Old Dog Haven, a small nonprofit group using a network of foster homes to provide a loving, safe home for abandoned senior dogs. Pet photographer David Walega said Old Dog Haven is a network of people who care about older dogs, which are harder to find homes for. Old Dog Haven volunteers either take the senior dogs into their own homes, or adopts out those with a reasonable life expectancy. They also try to assist owners in finding new homes for their senior dogs through their website and referrals.

3-year-old Sadie, left, and 8-month-old Maggie, look adorable with their little Halloween monkey, Friday, at All The Best Pet Care. The store was offering Halloween pet portraits with part of the proceeds benefitting Old Dog Haven. The two dogs are Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and are owned by Eileen Ellefsen of Mercer Island. Below, Sophie, a 2-year-old Maltese mix, srikes a peaceful pose. Sophie belongs to photographer David Walega. Cindy Libengood-Collins, the manager of All The Best Pet Care, said it had been a fun day. Walega said the dogs are “a little spastic in the beginning, then they settle down.” The trick to a good photo was, of course, treats.
