Possible cuts to sales-tax credit could slash Kirkland services New House Bill would cut Annexation Sales Tax Credit 35 percent for city BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com

T

he state budget crunch has meant cuts to many programs and services. Many cities have also felt the brunt of less assistance and it will get worse as the state looks to fill a $1.5 billion budget gap. But a measure moving through Olympia could hit

Kirkland like a sledgehammer. House Bill 2146 would cut the Annexation Sales Tax Credit (ASTC) by 10 percent in each of the 10 years it is promised to cities. It would also cap the amount cities receive through the ASTC based on the first annexation year’s tax revenue. That cap would disproportionately hit Kirkland the hardest compared

But the issue of losing the ASTC is no joking matter for the city and McBride emphasized how important it is that council members, citizens and business leaders bring this issue to the forefront of the legislative agenda in Olympia. “(The ASTC) was a major reason the city even considered annexation,” said McBride, whose speech was sponsored by Waste Management. “ ...

Many theories have been floated on the whereabouts of 2-year-old Sky Metalwala. The boy allegedly went missing just over two months ago while in the custody of his mother, Redmond resident Julia Biryukova. She, and Sky’s father Solomon, had been in the midst of a bitter divorce and custody battle for their two children. But Solomon Metalwala, of Kirkland, and his attor-

ney Clay Terry are speaking out with their own theories as to where the boy may be and are taking action. One of the ways they are moving forward is to request that Solomon be granted sole custody of his daughter Maile, with no visitation by Biryukova. Solomon was granted custody of his daughter on Dec. 5. Maile, 5, was placed in foster care after her brother went missing. “When Maile was picked up by the police, she looked [ more SKY page 2 ]

BOY

Kirkland resident Solomon Metalwala and son, Sky. The 2-year-old boy disappeared in Bellevue on Nov. 6. CONTRIBUTED life of a two-year-old child, whose mother is so vindictive and hateful, probably due to mental illness to some degree, that she is obsessed with the thought that she must prevent Solomon from (having) their children,” Terry told the Reporter. “She is not intelligent, and she definitely does not have what many would consider a creative side … I am not saying that to be mean, but we are in the trenches trying to come up with a way to circumvent Julia’s silence while her baby is missing.” Terry and Solomon are holding out hope that the boy may be with a friend or family member of Biryukova. One of their reasons for this is that other than one neighbor telling police that she saw the boy two weeks

before his disappearance, they have found no evidence Sky was in his mother’s care since April when her father visited from the Ukraine. “Julia did a bit of a shuffle on all of us …,” said Terry. “I suspected something, but because we were so wrapped up in the story that Sky just recently disappeared, we were all looking to the left, and we were not looking to the right.” When Solomon was granted custody of Maile he attempted to obtain her medical records from the year that he did not see his daughter. The doctor had not seen the two children in a year. “Armed with this alarming information, just before Christmas, we contacted the children’s health insurance carrier, who told us that

GRAND OPENING

there had been no medical claims for payments made for either child in 2011,” said Terry. “Now that was the shocker.” He and Solomon began sending letters out to Eastside doctors asking them to contact the Bellevue Police if they treated either child during the last year. “We do not expect any positive replies, but we have to try since it is an open door,” said Terry. Terry said that other than the one neighbor’s statement to police, no one has seen Sky since last May. “The only person who certainly should have seen Sky was Julia’s brother, Stan, but he has said nothing to us,” said Terry. Stan Biryukova has not responded to the Reporter’s requests for an interview. “Some people think that (Biryukova’s father) from the Ukraine took the child back with him at the end of April,” said Terry. “I tend not to believe that, because there are too many hoops to get through to get a child on a plane without all kinds of documents signed by parents.” Terry said that they do have evidence that Sky was in his mother’s custody in April of 2011. “It is possible to say that this case may have been cold before it was hot,” said Terry.

Construction underway on intersection improvements The construction of planned improvements for the intersection at N.E. 68th Street and 108th Ave. N.E. in the Houghton neighborhood began this week and will be complete this summer. The City of Kirkland’s contractor, Sanders Construction, will build a new westbound to northbound right turn lane on 68th and modify turning radiuses at all corners of the intersection to improve right turn movements. Additionally, sidewalks and curb enhancements will be made at all four corners to improve pedestrian safety and safe school walk routes. Construction hours will be from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday with traffic-related restrictions to occur between 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. to minimize peak hour impacts. To receive project updates, go to www.kirklandwa. gov/e-bulletins and select “Public Works Capital Improvement Projects,” or call the construction hotline at 425-587-3838.

Hypocrisy over 520 bridge toll

“Do you think the Houghton Community Council should end?”

Last week’s poll results: “Are you satisfied with the Kirkland Council’s vote for mayor and deputy mayor?” Yes: 50% No: 50%

TWO SENSE

Question of the week:

n Friday morning at about 9 a.m., I was driving to my dental appointment in West Seattle. No cavities, thank you very much. I was driving over the 520 bridge listening to a commentator on a local news radio channel. As I passed under the tolling sensor and cruised across the bridge, the commentator began talking about that exact topic – tolling. He was crowing about how he had been a long-time user of 520, remarking that he had used it for some 10 years, but now he had switched to using I-90 thanks to the horrible issue of tolling. This commentator boasted about how it only cost him six minutes more in the afternoon and, yeah, he had to get up a little earlier, but he was avoiding the toll – yippee! He went on to talk about the fact that the state is going to raise tolls on the Narrows Bridge, between Tacoma and Gig Harbor, and is looking into tolling I-5 and I-405. They are all valid things to question and debate. But it was his statements on tolling the I-90 bridge that got under my skin. He questioned how the state could have the audacity to toll I-90 to pay for the new 520 bridge. This commentator, who ran for Governor in 2000, did not see the hypocrisy in his statements made not 20-seconds apart. And he is not alone. I have heard many people who are avoiding the tolls on 520, say the same thing. But here is the thing, I don’t understand how these people expect a new bridge to be built. Who do they expect to pay for it? Paul Allen? Bill Gates?

Because if it were built by a private entity, I guarantee you would be paying more than $3.50 during peak hours. That leaves it up to the state, or more specifically, us. Is the toll set really high? Yes. Are there other issues like when will tolling end, when will the bridge be completed, and project waste? You bet. And all valid issues. But to crow about how you used the 520 bridge, contributed to its decay and then refuse to pay for its replacement, is irresponsible and maddening. You know how you prevent tolling on I-90 for many people who rarely use 520? Continue the route you took for 10 years. This can be debated, but I bet that a majority of people outside this topic would agree: The best thing about tolling is that it is a user tax. People who use it, pay for it. They take responsibility and don’t force someone 200-miles away to pay for a

bridge they will never use through a higher gas tax. You are also costing other people who never use either bridge, to pay more as well. Sitting on I-405, in even more traffic than usual, while your car idles, costs people money in gas, wear and tear on their car and time with their family. I get not wanting to pay for something you rarely use. But if I refused to pay my dentist after my checkup, that would be considered stealing. A service was rendered. I have to take responsibility and pay the bill when it comes due. So the next time you get in your car and you decide whether to take I-90 or 520, when you have been using 520 for years, think about the cavities you are giving the rest of us if you decide to skip out on the bill.

My heart goes out to Mr. Lacey’s family. I was driving home on that beautiful sunny day and passed the horrible accident after the fact. I thought to myself, how can an accident so serious happen on such a beautiful day? I agree on any penalties the Lacey family pursues. Let’s face it, ALCOHOL KILLS. When I was in Sweden back in 1970 they enforced a two-week stay in jail if you are even caught with alcohol on your breath. Let’s get tough. We should not be drinking and driving. That is the law, alcohol kills! People would think twice before getting in a car after drinking if they knew they were going to jail for two weeks!

Karin Party, Kirkland

There goes the neighborhood We’re learning the hard way not to trust politicians. It’s certainly true of State Rep. Larry Springer and Kirkland’s Mayor Joan McBride. They have not only cost us a lot of money, they have reduced our quality of life. When discussing budgets, traffic congestion, annexation, or controlling growth, they brokered deals without keeping the public informed as to what was going on. The council has always valued neighborhoods. Why not now? To suggest elimination of the Houghton Community Council personifies why we should not trust them. When Mr. Springer and Ms. McBride were elected, it exemplified the meaning of, “There goes the neighborhood.”

Privatize Kirkland’s rail trail

K

irkland is buying 5.5 miles of the old rail line from Renton to Snohomish that carried the Dinner Train for years. It’s buying it from the Port of Seattle for $5 million, and may convert it to a bike path and walking trail. It used to be owned privately by BNSF. It’ll now be called the Kirkland Segment of the Eastside Rail Corridor. And it’s subject to future reactivation as a freight railroad, if decided by King County. This old rail line runs right by my current home, and I remember walking to the new Totem Lake Malls on these train tracks in the early 70’s as a kid. But how to pay for this new jewel? Let’s think outside the

tax. Let’s privatize it. Let’s lease it to a private company for 10 years to make a profit from it, with a requirement to keep it open to the public. Roads are leased to private companies in this way in many parts of the U.S., including the Chicago Skyway. My policy files in my library have subfiles for all kinds of privatization, from airports to zoning, but I didn’t have anything on “trails.” How the heck do you privatize a trail? Like a railroad, or road, a trail traverses and crosses so much that it appears to be a “public good,” incapable of privatization. How do you enforce private property rights and monetize a trail? After all, it is a kind of open space, a naturally “public,” Jeff E. Jared

traversing path.Well, let a company willing to invest in a 10 year lease answer that. Let the market decide. Maybe a land trust should be allowed to buy it outright, then the city wouldn’t have to worry over its management and funding. What would privatization look like along the trail? It might mean billboards, food stands or other concessions (I see water and hiking shoes for sale) or corporate naming rights of statues, benches or water fountains along the path, or perhaps a fee collected on parts of it, or maybe even horse or bicycle rentals. Let people with a profit motive make it work, control and maintain it. Now that’s thinking outside the tax.

make parents aware of the presents teens sought after, but in retrospect, it seems that I may have alarmed certain individuals 1,811.9 miles away, in the good City of Des Moines, Iowa. Scrolling down the online version of my column, it is weighted with comments of discomfort from the aforementioned citizens of the Midwest. I like to think that I’m a people person and I believe this column corroborates that notion. I mean, all these people banded together over the general consensus that my writings were ill-advised. That’s got to count for something! However, upon scrutinizing some comments on the page, I myself became disgruntled. Wading through the various “you are so ungrateful” ones, Rebecca Lenox’s “What a little brat. I kind of want to slap him” jumps off the page. For a group of people discerning my generous holiday giving ideas, I find it incongruous that they are advocating for corporal punishment.

appropriately spent on anger management classes than a fancy new touch screen (no disrespect intended). In light of that, if I have to choose, I would rather pick my own poison and get an iphone in Kirkland rather than a slap in Des Moines. It’s exciting to know that people across the country are reading my column, even if it is under fire, because as we say in the news industry, a publication is “better read than dead.” On a side note, due to the fact that I have been loving my stay at the Reporter, I am branching out into another endeavor in addition to “On Track with Zach.” Becoming sustainable is the task that our generation must strive for, and while I am environmentally aware, sometimes striving for sustainability can be a bit of an inconvenience. If you’re like me, stay tuned for the Green Teen blog on the Reporter website, where I will be sharing easy ways to make the necessary changes for our earth.

The National MS Society, Greater Northwest Chapter educates, inspires and empowers those affected by multiple sclerosis. With a passion for bringing about a world free of MS, we help everyone affected by the disease to live richer, healthier, more independent lives.

A word about this month’s charity, the Multiple Sclerosis Society. Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, sometimes disabling disease that attacks the central nervous system. It can strike children, but most commonly affects people in the age range of 20 to 50. It is between two to three times more common in women than men and is more prevalent in northern climates. The exact causes and a cure for MS have yet to be discovered, but new treatments and advances in research are giving new hope to people affected by the disease. Customer donations will go to two local chapters of the Society: The Greater

Northwest Chapter which proudly serves more than 12,000 people with MS living in Alaska, Montana, Central and Western Washington and the Oregon Chapter which serves more than 7,200 individuals with MS and their families in Oregon and SW Washington. QFC is proud to support many great charities on a local level. We thank our customers and our associates for their generosity. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of many of the less fortunate in our communities.

The services hit the hardest would be public safety, as it accounts for 57 percent of the total cost for annexation. Public works services come in a distant second with 14 percent of the expenditure. As a result of the measure, the city is contemplating if it will reduce services to the entire city, and break promises to the original citizens of Kirkland, or just cut services to the annexation area. The city council has directed staff to take a look at how the bill would effect the city in both scenarios. “There were promises made by the city and the state to the former city that they would not subsidize that area and there were promises made to the new neighborhoods,” said Triplett. “At some point we need to get to one Kirkland.” The sales-tax credit was promised to cities as a way to get them to take on unincorporated areas and relieve the stress put on county resources. The result was the annexation of over 102,000 people statewide since 2007, with more to come. Kirkland’s contribution is the biggest so far, taking on more than 31,000 residents in the Finn Hill, Kingsgate and Juanita neighborhoods to the north of the city last June. The next biggest annexation to receive the tax credit is Renton with nearly 23,000 residents incorporated during two separate annexations. “(All the cities that have annexed) are all working together as a coalition …,” said Triplett. “We understand there has to be cuts to everything but this disproportionately hits us hard for stepping up to the plate.” For the cities involved, the measure would reduce an income source already depleted by lower than expected salestax revenue. Kirkland officials project that the recession will result in $800,000 less ASTC income during the first year alone. The estimate of what Kirkland would get back from the ASTC in 2009, when the city began talks of annexation, has been dramatically revised down from 6-percent growth to now 3.5 percent. Triplett said that the city has worked hard to make cuts based on the decline in growth. The reduction in revenue from the original estimates, with the addition of the bill, would be $29 million over the next 10 years. To put that in perspective, the city has planned to build a $37 million public safety building in Totem Lake to assist in the growth of law enforcement services for what is now the 12th-largest city in the state.

That way kids learn to do better next time, which ultimately improves family relationships and achieves the goal of better overall behavior.” Be calm when speaking to children. If you raise your voice or get physical, your child will feel frightened—consequently, he or she will find it difficult to focus on what you’re saying. Sometimes Jennifer recommends having children use their own words to repeat back to you what you’re asking—this helps ensure they understand what you intended. It’s important to have age-appropriate expectations. If you’re unsure of what is developmentally appropriate for your child, talk with your pediatrician, look online at reputable websites (like American Academy of Pediatrics) or attend a class.

Fortunately, there are steps you can take to reduce family stress, now and in the year ahead.

Unfortunately, our discipline methods don’t always support this. “Sometimes, getting your child to obey in the moment is not as important as helping them achieve longterm success,” explains Youth Eastside Services’ Parent Coach, Jennifer Watanabe.

by freed American slaves, a boy named Charles Taylor played ping pong in her home. In 1989, that boy was an 18-year-old soldier who started a war that lasted 14 years, and left more than 200,000 people dead, over a million in refugee camps, and the country in ruins. From her home in Kirkland, Antoinette watched helplessly as the war devastated her homeland. When she finally returned to Liberia after the war ended, she saw the destruction with her own eyes, and was determined to help. Antoinette, whose father, Sam Mentee, was a noted Liberian educator, believes that “education is the key to rebuilding Liberia.� She and her siblings donated their childhood home in Kakata and created the nonprofit Mentee Foundation to build a school on the property. The school will provide the only opportunity for many local children to get an education. For construction management help, the Mentee Foundation turned to another local nonprofit, Construction for Change. This all-volunteer organization, started in 2007 by three friends from the University of Washington Construction Management program, provides funding, building design, and construction management for small third world nonprofits. Nick Tosti, one of the founders of Construction for Change, says that he and the other two founders had all traveled in the third world and independently concluded that there are many small organizations doing great work all over the world that lack capital, infrastructure, and construction experience. CFC’s vision is to “partner with these on-the-ground organizations that are doing the best work out there.� In 2010, Antoinette moved back to Liberia to oversee the school project. Last month, two construction management volunteers from CFC arrived to begin building the four-room school. Kirkland attorney and former Kiwanis president Walt Krueger is the secretary and bookkeeper of the Mentee Foundation. He says that the group has raised more than half the money needed to build, furnish, and run the school, but needs an additional $40,000 by February.

Lake Washington boys basketball coach placed on leave BY MEGAN MANAGAN mmanagan@kirklandreporter.com

ake Washington head boy’s basketball coach Barry Johnson has been placed on leave. According to Lake Washington School District Director of Communications Kathryn Reith he has been placed on leave and assistant coach Brian Lund will be coaching the team. She said she couldn’t expand on why Johnson was placed on leave nor when or if he would be returning. The Kangs are 7-3 to start this season and beat Liberty

61-48 at home on Tuesday night. The team traveled to Bellevue on Jan. 6 for a KingCo match up. Johnson has been coaching the Kangs since 2009. He helped lead the team to a district finish last season, losing to Rainier Beach. The team made the second round of the state tournament in 2010, after a several year absence.

Game results In the first league game of 2012, the Lake Washington Kangs easily took down Liberty Jan. 3. The Kangs beat the Patriots 61-48 at home.

Lake Washington held a 21-14 lead at the end of the first quarter, but slowed down in the second with Liberty gaining 16 points to Lake Washington’s 13. The Kangs continued to hold the lead after the break. During the game Darien Nelson-Henry had the team’s high of 24 points, while Kelly Guy added 15 and Guy Lynott had 12 points.
