Until the beach closed “all of a sudden” in May 2010. “I always wondered what happened to the park,” said Cha as her son, Terrance and daughter, Rainey once again played at the park that partially re-opened Aug. 5 after some renovation delays.

“So it’s very exciting because the park has been gone for so long.” During a city-hosted reopening celebration at Juanita Beach Park Aug. 5, other local residents also expressed their delight at having the popular waterfront park back.

“This is incredible. It’s nice to see all the progress that has been made and to have the park back,” said Kirkland resident Charles Sota, who visited the park several times a week before it closed with his daughter, Polina and wife, [ more JUANITA page 3 ]

Sparkling cider corks popped and “Welcome to Kirkland” banners were unveiled as city dignitaries and residents celebrated the annexation at midnight on June 1. The city’s population

exploded to more than 80,000 residents as Kirkland absorbed the Kingsgate, Finn Hill and North Juanita neighborhoods. But once the excitement settled, not much changed – except one visible aspect. Right away, many new residents noticed the

increased Kirkland Police presence. “All of a sudden, they see police cars all over – there are several reasons for that,” said Eric Olsen, Kirkland Police chief.

This is part three of a four-part series that will examine policing in the new neighborhoods.

Eileen said after the park closed last year, she drove by the site and saw that work “wasn’t getting finished. I thought, ‘What’s going on?’ I’m glad to see the city got it done.” Michael Cogle, interim deputy director for the City of Kirkland’s Department of Parks and Community Services, said the city worked “really hard to get the park partially opened for what’s left of our summer.” The city hired Lake Stevens-based Marshbank Construction, Inc. in June to complete the first phase of the $2.8 million renovation

project. Earlier in June, work at the park abruptly halted when the city terminated its contract with DMSL Construction, Inc. for failure to complete the project on time. The park’s re-opening date was also affected by weatherrelated setbacks and the company’s financial issues. During the event, city dignitaries unveiled a “Park Now Open” banner amidst cheers and honks from passing cars. Cogle also thanked Marshbank Construction, which completed significant improvements to the park, including new walking paths, extensive landscaping, benches and picnic tables. But the work wasn’t easy, said Marshbank Construction co-owner Dave Marshbank.

“It was rough,” he said of the park when his company took over renovation work. “It should have taken us three months to do all this, but we just figured out a way to get it done.” Bob Lovins of Lovins Landscaping added that his company had to redo much of the landscaping work that the previous contractors did. “Welcome to the park and stay off my grass,” Cogle joked during the re-opening event, noting that some of the newly-seeded lawn areas in the park will be protected to allow complete establishment. Additional construction activity in the park will occur through September, including restoration of Juanita Creek located on the western side of the park.

irkland city leaders, residents and construction workers packed onto the southwest corner of 97th Ave. N.E. and N.E. Juanita Drive Friday. It is a corner that has only seen inquisitive passerbys gazing through a chain-link fence at a torn-up park during the past 15 months. The saga led many residents to write letters to the editor, call city officials, brought TV news crews to Kirkland and drew the overall ire of those who frequent one of the best little recreation areas in the city. And rightly so. The project was to be completed as early as March of this year and as late as the end of June. Kirkland residents who use the park for relaxation and a reason to play during the summer time, lost that part of their lives during the summer of 2010 and half of 2011. The frustration was understandable. But to the delight of those who were there for the parks reopening, we get two months of summer in the jewel at Juanita Beach. A special thank you should be extended to Marshbank Construction, which turned a disaster of a project back into a beautiful park for the rest of the summer. It is not complete yet, and we understand that. But the beach is open, the new boardwalk is open, the kids’ playground is open and, as one resident sarcastically remarked in a letter to the editor, the parking lot is open, too. We can also see how beautiful the park will be when completed. But Marshbank’s ability to get the park open by the beginning of

An apology from Sternoff is enough In the recent scandal of Councilman Bob Sternoff sending inappropriate emails during Kirkland City Council sessions, the council decided (in a vote of 3 to 4) to launch an investigation concerning Sternoff ’s actions. This wastes both time and money by investigating a matter that is already proven to have happened and is really quite trivial. An apology is good enough, since Sternoff was only talking behind his fellow members’ backs. Yes, it’s a bad thing, but not one that requires the whole judicial process. This inquiry gives a good reason for why Sternoff sent his emails during session, too. He saw no other use of his time. If the same people that Sternoff is back-talking about come at him with an entire investigation, then it doesn’t seem very likely that the council is thinking very logically about where to put their resources. So, all that needs to be done is a request from the council to Sternoff for an apology, and then forgive and forget. After all, who cares about a councilman’s affairs as long as they don’t hurt anyone?

Rhys Brewer, age 14, Kirkland A Division of Sound Publishing

August was remarkable. Between June 1 and August 5 it seemed like Marshbank had more workers in the park than had been there the previous 13 months combined. And the improvements were astonishing to watch. But the villain in this all is not the city. Many city employees including city manager Kurt Triplett, Interim Public Works Director

Voters should get a view of Morgan’s property The Kirkland Council election is, again, an interesting one. As a former building manager in Kirkland, I would suggest that voters check out

all candidates to find those best qualified to make decisions for the city. For example, public records at Kirkland City Hall show a long battle - with citations and fines - against Martin Morgan. A drive on 122nd Avenue Northeast in the block that dead ends into Lake Washington High School might give voters a view of how Mr. Morgan keeps up property in Kirkland.

Congratulations for making a beautiful park...ing lot Congratulations, Kirkland! The time, effort and dollars spent in improving Juanita Beach Park are nothing short of amazing. According to the City of Kirkland’s Web site, “visitors park in a more space-efficient parking lot complimented by new lighting and landscaping (and biofiltration stormwater features), can enjoy new walking paths that lead to and from the beach and the pier, can take a swim, and have a picnic on the new picnic tables.” Apparently, more space-efficient parking means half the spots are gone, the ones left are smaller and the landscaping in the parking lot takes up more spaces. I know I appreciate landscaping in my parking lots. It gives me something to look at while I’m circling the lot trying to find a place to park. Thank you, too, for adding the walking pathways to and from the beach because without them, people would not be able to cross the “biofiltration stormwater features” - the

drainage ditches that have replaced what once was grassy area and are less than walking friendly, but I must say look pleasing thanks to their extensive landscaping that also makes them impassable. Thank you, too, for making a more “space-efficient” beach area, which also seems to have been downsized by half. At least it will look pretty, eventually. I particularly enjoyed the thoughtful placement of the three large fir tree plantings right smack in the middle of the beach seating area which, in time, will make a most impressive display of 30 foot trees blocking the view of the lake, but providing the much needed shade and carpet of needles, sap and cones on the beach and the walkway. The person responsible for the landscape design, if you can call it that, must either not have children or have too many children and a serious disregard for them, because who would purposely install planting beds mounded with beauty bark and rose rushes on the beach where bare little feet are certain to be? Bees, thorns and splinters are not conducive to being kid-friendly, let alone grown-up friendly. The city’s Web site also boasts “the planting of 900 new evergreen and deciduous trees.” I beg to differ. Shrubs and swamp grass planted in the parking lot, the unusable planting berms, and the biofiltration stormwater features do not count as evergreen and deciduous trees. I think they got that number confused with the number of trees they removed. I don’t even want to think about the time and money it will take to maintain all of those unnecessary plantings, but

all in all, Kirkland, congratulations. You have once again taken a perfectly fine space and made yourself a beautiful park...ing lot.

Thank you for helping to look for lost dog I’ve read numerous letters in the Kirkland Reporter, most of them negative and that’s okay, it’s a place to vent. But I’d like to do a little something different. This is more a heartfelt letter because of the care and compassion we have received and because I had no other idea how to thank everyone who has helped us. Our dog ran away on July 22. My daughters and I made fliers and posters and harassed every neighbor we could find. Then we went across the street to the west side of Market and harassed more people. I have never been so overwhelmed by the compassion these people have shown us and their willingness to help. From offers of a Segway, to willingness to hand out fliers to hugs and walking the neighborhood with us to calls offering help. To date we haven’t found our Coco, but if my neighbors have anything to do with it we will. I think it’s important to know the kind of people you live by. The quality of their character. I know that I am so incredibly blessed. Losing Coco was a heartbreak (and I do believe we’ll find her), but knowing these people around me has been a gift. So thank you to everyone out there who has helped.

The Kirkland Reporter Police Blotter is not intended to be representative of all police calls originating in Kirkland, which average about 1,000 per week. Between July 29 to Aug. 4, the Kirkland Police Department reported 476 traffic violations (12 DUIs), 28 alarm calls, 30 car accidents, 32 noise complaints, 21 thefts, nine car prowls, 12 domestic violence calls, eight calls for harassment, nine acts of fraud, 22 calls of a disturbance, five calls for illegal substances and 18 calls of civil disturbance.

Police to enforce parking using license plate recognition system

July 31

The Kirkland Police Department Parking Enforcement Division will begin using a license plate recognition system for purposes of monitoring parking in time-limited, city-owned lots and spaces in downtown, beginning the week of Aug. 8. The system uses a laptop computer and a camera that captures an image of a vehicle and its license plate. The system’s GPS feature loads the vehicle’s coordinates, the software time-stamps the image, and the system alarms when vehicles captured in the database have gone beyond their time limits in a parking space. Time-limited parking areas include the Lake Street (and Central Way) lot, the Lakeshore Plaza lot, Peter Kirk Municipal Garage, and on-street parking in downtown. “This proven technology will simply enhance the manual chalking system we currently utilize to monitor and enforce parking regulations in our downtown core,� said Lt. Mike Murray. “Experience has shown that these electronic chalking systems are more efficient in the time it takes our parking enforcement officers to monitor vehicles and more accurate because of the detail the system captures in the images.� Murray notes that the parking regulations for downtown are not changing, but that the new system will be used in addition to the manual chalking system. The City of Kirkland is working with the Greater Kirkland Chamber of Commerce and Kirkland Downtown Association to notify downtown businesses of the new system. Signs will be posted at parking lot pay stations to inform parking lot users. For more information, visit www.kirklandwa.gov/police.

Obstructing: 1:40 a.m., 12000 block of N.E. 124th Street. A 29-year-old Missouri man was arrested for obstruction after he ran from police during a possible assault investigation.

Kimball agreed, saying, “everyone is hurting� in the current economic climate but even when the economy is booming, educators are among the worse paid in the community. “The legislature is hanging us out to dry,� he said at the meeting. District officials said this is because school districts’ rainy day funds will eventually run out and districts will reach their levy caps on how much money they can ask for from taxpayers. To address the teachers’ salary reductions — which just means a reduction in how much money the district receives from the state — Kimball said they worked with teachers to come up with a solution that includes teachers working two ad-

the state, which includes a 1.9 percent salary reduction for teachers and a $2.6 million cut to maintain small class sizes at the K-4 level. To offset this reduction, LWSD officials plan to use district levy funds, extend the school year and make small staff reductions through attrition — not layoffs. At the meeting, board president Jackie Pendergrass said she believes the state legislature has continued to make cuts because lawmakers believe school districts would make up the difference at the local level. While this has been true for LWSD, Pendergrass was not willing to let the legislature off the hook. “They were counting on school districts,� she said. “It’s not something they can continue to count on.�

ditional days. There will be an extra instructional day on June 21, 2012 — extending the school year calendar from 180 to 181 days and the last day of school to June 22 — and a teacher work day on May 25, the Friday before Memorial Day. This day had been a regular school day, but now students will not go to school and make up for it at the end of the year. “Everyone came to the table with what I call a really nice compromise,� the superintendent said about the district’s negotiations with teachers. Kimball said the two extra days will be dedicated to preparing for the district’s grade reconfiguration to a K-5, 6-8 and 9-12 system in fall 2012. Students will get to visit the school they will attend the next year and for students who are not changing schools, Kimball said they will get to visit their next year’s classroom. On the teacher-only day, teachers will visit their school as well and get a chance to work with their new teams and plan for the next year. “That’s pretty important work,� Kimball said. He added that when the new grade configuration [ more BUDGET page 7 ]

www.kirklandreporter.com [ BUDGET from page 6 ] comes, half of the high school student population in the district will be new to their school. At the middle school level, it will be two-thirds new students. Other district employee groups including administrators and secretaries, whose salaries have also been cut, have taken similar moneysaving measures such as giv-

ing up a number of vacation days. Another way LWSD is saving money and avoiding layoffs is reducing staff through attrition, meaning as teachers resigned or retired at the end of the school year, their positions have remained unfilled. This, however, will mean K-4 class sizes will increase slightly. District officials said

student-teacher ratios will increase by roughly one student per class. Kindergarten and first-grade staffing will change from 19-to-1 to 20-to1; second- and third-grades will shift from 23.9-to-1 to 25-to-1; and fourth-grade will go from 25.12-to-1 to 26.75-to-1. The proposed budget was first presented to the school board by business services

coordinator Barbara Posthumus at the June 20 meeting. After the meeting, the budget was posted on the district’s Website with an email contact for public input, but Posthumus said they didn’t receive any emails from the public. She added that in the weeks between the June meeting and Monday that there weren’t any major

changes to the budget either. Posthumus said her team’s estimates on state revenue were off by about $20,000 when they received the final numbers. But when compared with an overall budget of $231.3 million, they just needed to do some minor tweaking. “That’s a very small number,” Posthumus said. She added that this adjust-

ment did not affect any line items. There was not much discussion about the budget during the board meeting, but it was because trustees have worked with and discussed the budget with Posthumus, Kimball and other district staff for months. Pendergrass said the board has had several budget work sessions since January.

Don’t let downgrade deter you from investing J S&P put a negative outlook on the rating, which means that further downgrades are possible. But despite these developments, there’s no reason to think that the sky is falling in on the investment world. Consider the following: “Downgrade” doesn’t mean default. Rating agencies such as S&P assign ratings to bonds to help investors measure credit risk — the chance that they won’t receive timely payments. The downgrade to AA+ just means that investors would be slightly less likely to receive future payments than if the bond had an AAA rat-

ing. This is far different from a default, which would result in investors not receiving current payments. U.S. credit rating is still high quality. S&P didn’t change the U.S. government’s short-term credit rating, which applies to debt maturing in less than one year. Furthermore, the long-term rating of AA+ is still considered high quality. Also, keep in mind that two other major rating agencies, Moody’s and Fitch, both affirmed their AAA rating on the U.S., although Moody’s has a negative outlook on its rating. Downgrade was not a

surprise. Because the downgrade had been rumored for weeks, the financial markets may have already “priced in” some of the impact. While it’s possible that interest rates may rise, it’s also important to note that similar downgrades of other countries’ debt in the past have not resulted in significant rate jumps. As for the stock market — which was already volatile, partially due to the debt ceiling issue — the negative reaction we’ve seen to the downgrade will likely be short-term. This downgrade should not be as calamitous as we’ve been led to believe.

Corporate profits, always a key driver of stock prices, are still strong, and with the market correction we’ve seen in the past couple of weeks, many quality stocks now appear to be more attractively priced — which means it may actually be a good time to look for investment opportunities that make sense for you, rather than head to the “sidelines.” In any case, you never want to overreact to any one piece of news. If you were to make big changes to your investment strategy, you’d likely incur fees and expenses — and, even more importantly, your portfolio might no

Fraud - three things your business can do manager, here are three things you can do to prevent and detect possible fraud: 1) Walk-through and review your key business processes. Think like a criminal as you review your processes. Identify weaknesses and think of ways to either eliminate the weakness or mitigate the risk. 2) Review things you normally would not. Often embezzlement and fraud schemes are committed by the most trusted employees. Consider reviewing a bank statement or a new vendor list on occasion.

ust when you thought you could take a break from financial drama, following the resolution of the debt ceiling issue, here comes Act 2: the downgrade of the U.S. long-term credit rating. As a citizen, you may be feeling frustrated. And as an investor, you might be getting worried. But is this concern really justified? Certainly, it was news when Standard and Poors (S&P) lowered the U.S. long-term credit rating from AAA to AA+. This is, after all, the first time that the U.S. has lost its AAA status since its initial publication 70 years ago. Furthermore,

This can be challenging, especially in light of the screaming headlines. But remember, although past performance isn’t indicative of future results, the U.S. financial markets have seen plenty of traumas in the past, and have always survived — and, usually, eventually prospered.

[8] August 12, 2011 [ POLICE from page 1] may see additional units, such as senior officers providing back-up or the K-9 unit. One of the first things the department did in June was it made an emphasis to police the school zones in the area since it was the end of the school year, Olsen noted. “So all of a sudden overnight, my gosh, there’s a cop in every school zone,� he said. “So if somebody came in and said there’s cops all over the place, I would

What residents are saying In the weeks following annexation, the Reporter received dozens of letters

from residents concerned about the many cops in the new areas. Some were in support of the change. William Archer, a police officer for another city, said: “We all know the King County Sheriff’s Office has had budget cuts for several years that reduced general patrolling in most of the county and we got used to it. So I’m pleased when I see a police car rolling by trying to prevent crime in my community verses simply

responding to incidents as they occur.� Others, like Annie Matthews, have thanked the KPD for not only patrolling the new neighborhoods, but for getting to actually know the residents there. In fact, the most surprising thing about the annexation so far for Captain Bill Hamilton has been the positive responses and “how welcome we have been as a police department up there,� he said. “Our officers have been very, very pleased with the comments we’ve been getting from the annexation community. Making a difference is one thing, making an immediate difference is another.� But not all feedback has been positive. Russ Perman criticized the KPD and said “Kirkland is not a police state.� A past Kingsgate resident himself, Hamilton cited one comment he received from a resident who said, “I thought I was annexed, not occupied,� recalled Hamilton, noting most of the negative input has to do with police visibility. But the KPD is also “highly visible on purpose,� said Hamilton, noting not all police activity generates a citation. A couple years ago, the KPD transitioned its fleet to black and white vehicles, said

Olsen. “The reason was obvious high visibility,� said Olsen. “If I can’t put a cop on every corner, I want people to think that a cop is on every corner and that’s what the black and whites do.� Hamilton sees the complaints as “almost rewarding� because it means the KPD has achieved visibility in the new neighborhoods. “And that’s one of our philosophies is if you are visible, then you can deter crime,� added Olsen. “How many people have alarm stickers on their houses who don’t have alarms on their homes?�

Citizens’ requests for enforcement Hamilton commented on how quickly new residents have provided input to the KPD. In fact, a majority of KPD’s citations to date “have actually been a response to citizens’ requests for enforcement,� he said. That’s another reason why residents may see an increase in cops is because officers are working complaint zones. Hamilton said the department has a system that tracks resident’s complaints and how officers respond. According to the data, speeding and failing to stop are the biggest issues for residents so

far, said Olsen. When responding to a traffic complaint, officers are asked to use their discretion, said Olsen, noting there’s a 50-50 split between the number of citations issued and warnings in the new neighborhoods. “The visibility and the community involvement should lead to a reduction in crime or at the very least an enhanced feeling of safety,� said Hamilton. And although it is difficult for the KPD to measure whether its enforcement has lowered the crime rate, “I think the best measurement will be people’s feeling of safety and quality of life,� said Hamilton. Just after annexation, he said many residents requested more enforcement in the area, said Hamilton. “We’re actually getting an increase in complaints on quality of life issues now from the community,� he added. “So it started out we need more enforcement, and now what about that boat or Winnebago in front of my neighbor’s house and things along those lines. I think the fact that they’re now calling on that in addition to enforcement requests is a good indication they are aware of our level of service.�

And they can all be customized to customer’s preferences, she said. “I can make them smaller or bigger as you like,� Allen said to a customer while placing a necklace on her daughter, to show how it looks under the sun. “See, under the sun you can really see the color.� Before her illness, Allen would rise at 6 a.m., send her two children off to school, herself off to work, pick up her kids from the Boys and Girls Club and then come home. She often worked over 40 hours a week – although overtime pay was “a good thing� for a single mom. These days, Allen [ more JEWELRY page 13 ]

needs more hours of rest to preserve energy for her “day,” which starts in front of piles and piles of sparkly crystals. Assembling and stringing beads is sometimes all she does the entire day. “It’s kind of crazy, sometimes I make a bracelet, and if I don’t like it, I will take it all apart and put it together in a different way, so many times that my hands go numb, “ Allen said. Allen’s passion for jewelry-making has finally given her some financial security. But she hasn’t forgotten that there are still people out there who need a helping hand. “We are not well-off ourselves by all means,” Allen said with conviction. “ But in going through what I went through, I can understand what others families go through.” Now, a portion of Allen’s sales goes to Hopelink, breast cancer research and the Boys & Girls Club’s silent auction. She envisions having a jewelry charity party where people could buy a piece of jewelry and choose where the money would go. In a thank you note she wrote to Hopelink, she said: “I don’t have a whole lot to donate at this time, but it is a little bit. I will be making a donation every few months, and I hope that it will help a family that needs it.” Kris Betkler of Hopelink said in an email that they have had a number of former clients come back to volunteer, but few give back the way Allen is

doing now. “What Nicole is doing is fairly unique,” she wrote. Allen said her family’s life has never been so “balanced.” Looking back, she even finds some good has come out of her sickness. “I am finally able to look after my kids. I am actually able to do their homework with them, sit down and spend that quality time with them which before I wasn’t able to have,” she said.

#1 Keep sprinkler systems maintained. This minimizes overspray onto paved surfaces. #2 Wash your car at a commercial car wash. You’ll save water and keep pollutants out of local lakes and streams. #3 Try to match lawn watering to current weather. Don’t water when it’s raining! #4 Consider upgrading your sprinkler system. Install a rain sensor. Cascade offers free rain sensor installation. #5 Use a broom. Use a broom to sweep sidewalks and driveways rather than a hose. #6 Maintain and cover pools & hot tubs. Maintain pools and hot tubs and keep them covered when not in use to minimize evaporation.

The Volt’s initial appearance in six states and Washington D.C. has performed and sold out to audiences who are eager to own a vehicle that is very fuel efficient and good for the environment. Chevrolet dealerships in Washington State will have a limited number of Volts available as the manufacturer ramps up production for its 2012 model.

rolet Volt, it was obvious the vehicle created a positive image for the participants. To say it was electrifying might be a stretch, but the short ride and drive gave a preview of the vehicle’s performance on city streets and quick entrance and exit of the freeway. The Volt runs on electricity for an initial range of 35 miles on a single charge before a gas generator creates electricity for up to 340 additional miles on a full tank of gas. The Volt can be plugged into a common household plug for recharge. Charging stations are popping up at shopping centers and park and ride lots around King County. The mid-size sedan has two LCD screens that display speed, battery power, range to recharge or re-fill as well as an efficiency gauge that gives you real-time feedback.

Initially, both screens might seem a little distracting, but after you get a feel for the vehicle, I have found the gauges to be a tremendous help in achieving

Eastside Timebank offers members to exchange services for free BY SAMANTHA PAK Reporter Newspapers

When Margaret Schwender broke her ankle a few months ago, she couldn’t cook, clean or take care of other household chores that needed to be done. But rather than sit around and watch her post-injury to-do list grow, the Kirkland resident utilized the Eastside Timebank to complete these normally easy tasks. “It was a blessing because (my injury) was around Easter time and

I couldn’t put away my Easter decorations,” Schwender said. Schwender and other members of the Eastside Timebank can request and receive services ranging from housework and accounting to computer tutoring and pet sitting for free in exchange for services and skills of their own. The timebank encompasses Redmond Kirkland and Bellevue, but began in Kirkland as a six-month pilot program, which ended in December 2010. The Eastside Timebank

DISCIPLES OF CHRIST

recently held its monthly community potluck and new member orientation in Redmond. For more information, visit www. eastsidetimebank.org.

OPEN TO ALL Currently incorporated, the timebank is fiscally sponsored by Hopelink in Redmond and in the middle of applying for its 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. Linda Benson, vice president of community initiatives at Hopelink, said the sponsorship allows the timebank to utilize Hopelink’s nonprofit status to receive donations, grants and other forms of funding. Hopelink was part of the task force that founded the timebank. Benson said Hopelink became involved because as a social services organization, they were seeing an increased need in services as well as requests to volunteer. Hopelink wasn’t always able to provide certain services or equipped with the staff to place volunteers, so the timebank was a way of addressing this. “It benefits everybody,” Benson said. The way the timebank works is an exchange of

services based on time credits. For example, if a person needs to be driven somewhere and the exchange takes two hours, the driver has earned two hours of credit that can be used on any services they may need in the future. Members do not need to make a direct exchange. Any materials or equipment needed must be purchased by the member receiving the service. Individuals, businesses and organizations can join the timebank. In the case of nonprofits like Hopelink, Benson said they can use time credits donated by other members to provide services for people that the organizations don’t offer. In addition, businesses can exchange services to fill a need, such as a hair salon offering haircuts for help in setting up a website, according to Schwender, who was also a member of the founding task force. While the timebank focuses on the Redmond, Kirkland and Bellevue, Executive Director Joan Eads said members do not necessarily need to be from these cities, adding that they have members from Woodinville, Bothell and Renton as well.

However Eads, a member living in Lake Forest Park, said living outside of the three main cities may make it difficult because most exchanges take place at people’s homes and people are less inclined to travel further distances. Schwender added that the timebank is open to people of all backgrounds, ages and abilities. According to Eads, there are about 95 members in Eastside Timebank.

HELP IN THE RECESSION With the economic recession, many people are unemployed or underemployed and Eads said there is large pool of untapped talent in the region. The timebank can be empowering for them because it gives these individuals the opportunity to offer the community their talents. Eads said contributing and meeting others can offer people a strong support system during tough times. “It’s really building these circles of support,” she said. Eads said this is an important part of the timebank because ev-

eryone has unique skills and talents to offer that they may not realize — especially people who are marginalized, for whatever reason. She said one of her favorite things about the timebank is seeing people recognize their own gifts and value, while gaining more selfesteem. Another benefit of the Eastside Timebank is that it offers people the opportunity to receive services that they might not be able to afford.

SOMETHING FROM EVERYONE Eads said TimeBanks USA, a national organization that provides support for timebanks around the country, helps them keep track of the services offered and requested. According to the TimeBanks USA website, there are only two timebank members in Washington state, including Eastside Timebank, and the other one is located near Olympia. Eastside Timebank was formed to address the struggles people were facing during the economic recession, but also to help [ more TIMEBANK page 17 ]

build a stronger community, according to Eads. It was this idea that also caught Ed Mills’ interest. The Bellevue resident really liked the community building aspect to the timebank and the idea of connecting with others. He said with exchanges and monthly potlucks, local residents have the opportunity to meet new people and socialize, in addition to receiving services. “You get a lot done that way,� he said, referring to tackling tasks with others. Mills also liked that credits are tracked by time, so no one service is worth more than another. He said this makes everyone — no matter what service they provide — worth something. “I like the idea that an hour’s worth an hour,� he said. “We’re all people... Everybody has something they can do.� Schwender said the program is all about community building. “It’s neighbors meeting neighbors,� Schwender said. “It’s about community. It really is about building community relationships.�
