Milkin house rebuild completed with furniture donation BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com
Five years ago Sgt. Leonid Milkin’s family, and everything they had built, were taken away while he was serving in Iraq with the National Guard. But thanks to countless volunteers from the Kirkland and greater Puget Sound community, over 80 businesses and organizations and one very driven stay-athome Kirkland mom with a gigantic heart, Milkin was finally able to come home to stay on Saturday. “I am just overwhelmed with emotions. God cares and people care. This means [ more HOME page 6 ]

Juanita High School defeats Bainbridge Island for title BY MEGAN MANAGAN mmanagan@kirklandreporter.com
With just one pitch left between the Juanita Rebels softball team and the state title, the crowd began chanting “Lets go Rebels” from the stands. The Rebels did just that – going all the way as starting pitcher Allison Rhodes threw the final strike out to win the game. The team won the 3A state softball championship Saturday afternoon in Lacey, beating Bainbridge 6-1. Shortly after the final pitch had been thrown and after the team held the trophy in their hands, senior captain Lexi Faist still couldn’t believe it. “It feels like a dream,” she said. “It doesn’t feel real. This is awesome. I’m so excited for all of us.” In their second meeting of the post season, the Rebels dominated from the mound, with Rhodes striking out 10 batters over seven innings. Juanita started off the afternoon with a 1-0 lead at the end of the first inning, thanks to a run from Lexi Faist. In the second inning the Rebels had two more runs off of three hits to take a commanding early lead. “The girls stayed real focused and to make those little plays were huge,” said head coach Kristan Dahl. “All game long they made every play that was asked of them and it was great. Bainbridge is a fantastic team and it was an opportunity to come out and prove that we were the best team out here and it was great.” [ more SOFTBALL page 15 ]

Annexation official with midnight celebration, Kirkland is now the 12th largest city in state BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com

irkland resident Johanna Palmer filled plastic glasses with sparkling apple cider by the side of the road as midnight approached on Tuesday. One car even stopped to ask the police in attendance why so many vehicles and the spotlight were all sitting beside 124th Ave. N.E. in the Kingsgate neighborhood. The 20 or so City of Kirkland employees, city council members and residents marked the official incorporation of the three newest neighborhoods into Kirkland with the unveiling of a “Welcome to Kirkland” sign at exactly 12:01 a.m. Wednesday morning. “This is history, this is
ordained,” said Deputy Mayor Penny Sweet. “These people have been Kirkland residents forever and now it is official.” The annexation covers the neighborhoods of Finn Hill, North Juanita and Kingsgate and pushed Kirkland’s population well over 80,000, making it the 12th largest city in the state. “This makes the City of Kirkland a major player at the state level,” said former Kirkland mayor and current state Rep. Larry Springer, who has been working on annexation since 1995. “It gives us more clout ... But it is not like these people are a bunch of aliens. These people have called Kirkland home 25 years.” The same event was held simultaneously at a second location

Finn Hill senior gives new meaning to party crashing BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com
F
inn Hill resident Brian Pattillo threw a party Sunday afternoon and invited friends and family. But it was his drunk 78-year-old neighbor that crashed the party in a big way. The guests had just arrived and were getting acquainted when a car slammed through the corner of Pattillo’s home in the 1300 block of 91st Place N.E. in Kirkland’s Finn Hill neighborhood at about 4 p.m. “It is just by chance we didn’t have people in the front yard,” said Pattillo. “We are finding a lot of humor in it.” And while having humor about the situation is better than anger, there was nothing humorous about the extent of the accident and what led up to it. Pattillo’s elderly and drunk neighbor allegedly got into his car to go gambling and fell asleep with the car running. At some point the car went into gear with his foot on the gas pedal. The car went over the curb and hit a

street sign, which sent the car back across the street towards Pattillo’s home, according to the King County Sherrif ’s Department. The car then drove across Pattillo’s yard, hitting the corner of his home and striking his car. Still in gear, the car kept going across another neighbor’s lawn, through garbage cans, striking a truck and finally hitting a tree before coming to a rest. “I just could not believe it,” said Pattillo. “He should not be driving. His son told me his vision is bad, too.” Pattillo said that he had seen the man driving erratically before and meant to call the Sherrif ’s office. “It is a case of should have could have,” said Pattillo. “I am just glad no one was hurt. He took out the corner of the house but we can get that fixed.” Police arrested the man for DUI and he was transported to the hospital for precautionary reasons. After being processed for the crime the man was released into the care of his wife, according to John Urquhart, King County Sherrif ’s spokesperson.
JHS junior recognized for volunteer work Juanita High School junior Sarah Smith was recently named one of Washington State’s top runners-up in the 2011 Prudential Spirit of Community awards. This award is presented yearly to honor students of all ages who have volunteered significant amounts of time to serve their communities and country. Sarah was chosen from more than 5,000 nominees, based on her 600-plus hours spent over the past two years at Phoenix Rising Sanctuary, a horse rescue organization in Duvall, which invites young girls to build selfconfidence while learning to ride. Sarah has helped to care for as many as 60 rescued horses, training and exercising them, and also helps participants learn to ride during summer camps as well as assist with fund-raising activities. For her dedication, she received a bronze medal, award certificate and a letter from President Obama in honor of her contributions.

Normally, annexation without an assumption of debt needs a simple majority. City officials ultimately included the assumption of Kirkland’s current debt in the ballot measure. The vote failed to get 60 percent by just seven votes. But with the vote being well over the 50 percent mark needed for just annexation, the Kirkland City Council repeated history by voting to annex without putting the burden of previous debts incurred by the city on the new residents. The exact same thing occurred with the annexation of Rose Hill. “The key thing is performance,” said Toby Nixon, who worked on the Annexation YES! committee and was the first annexation resident to file for city council. “If the city follows through with what was promised I think they will be satisfied.”
Many voted in favor of the annexation for an increased police presence in the three neighborhoods. The King County Sherrif’s Department has just three deputies to respond to issues in an area with more than 34,000 residents. But some are skeptical of the increased patrols. “We consider ourselves to be part of their community,” said Kirkland Police Capt. Bill Hamilton. “We take pride in our community. We want to ease into things and just raise awareness.” The celebration Wednesday morning was just the beginning of an outreach campaign by the city as it also held an event at City Hall Wednesday evening and a business breakfast on Thursday. The biggest event will be held today at Juanita Beach Park. Kirkland City Council members and other elected officials will give welcome remarks at 6 p.m. The council members will also serve strawberry shortcake. The Kamiakin Junior High School Jazz Ensemble and Juanita High School Pep Band will perform from 7–7:30 p.m., followed by Kirkland’s own Back Burner bluegrass band. The evening will include an outdoor movie “The Sandlot.” Activities will be held on the north side of the park where the Juanita Friday Market is located.
WWII veterans and home front honored BY LOITA HAWKINSON Special to the Reporter
Kirkland Heritage Society and visitors took the evening of May 25 to thank our WWII veterans and home front residents. The guest speaker was Joseph Regan who was a prisoner of war for more than five months, before being released by General Patton and his troops. At the time of his release, General Eisenhower had a personal chat with Regan and told him that one day of captivity was one day too many. Regan held the capacity crowd’s attention as he talked about his plane being hit, the parachute jump, his days on foot and finally his capture. Regan said he was treated well because the war was close to the end and it was in the German’s best interest to be good to their captives. He has a wonderful wit and reflection on his wartime service. His good humor and love of country were in his every word.

EDITOR’S NOTE
hen tragedy strikes, we all take a deep breath and do what we can. For some, this means organizing large-scale relief efforts. Others get their hands dirty by trying to rebuild what once was. For us at the Reporter, this means helping the community through telling the story and hoping that someone will listen long enough to take action. This was the case with Sgt. Leonid Milkin. I first met Leonid last January, just days before the man who murdered Leonid’s wife, two sons and sister-in-law went to trial. While other news outlets reported how the jury was chosen for the trial, I wondered how Leonid and his family felt going to trial four years following the murders. I also wanted to take the Kirkland community back to the killings to remind them what the trial was about. As we sat inside a Starbucks, I listened to the National Guard sergeant recall the morning he learned his family was stabbed to death and his home burned down to hide the crime in July 2006. I was torn between my emotions as a mother and objectivity as a reporter. Two days after my story printed, I received a phone call. Some wonderful volunteers had stepped up to mobilize the community to rebuild Leonid’s home. This was the beginning of an amazing 16-month journey, led by Kirkland resident Michele Yousef. Michele not only gave her time, but she rallied
Volunteer Michele Yousef hugs Leonid Milkin as the community welcomes him to his new refurnished home on Saturday. Yousef rallied the community to rebuild the home over the past 16 months. CARRIE WOOD, Kirkland Reporter more than 80 businesses to donate materials and labor to rebuild Leonid’s home. To applaud Michele for her efforts simply would not be enough recognition for what she has done. During the long-awaited homecoming on Saturday, staff writer Matt Phelps and I had the opportunity to see the project come to fruition. We waited with other volunteers to see the look on Leonid’s face when he came home. Volunteer Sharon Ilstrup peeked through the window blinds as she anticipated his return. When Leonid walked in his front door, it was difficult for anyone standing in his living room to hold back tears. It was truly a cathartic moment for Leonid and the community too. We have covered the murder trial from start to finish, while also reporting on the home rebuilding
efforts. Reporter staff recently won several Society of Professional Journalist awards, including for our coverage of the murder trial and rebuilding of Leonid’s home. That coverage has meant the most to us and reminds us that such honors are not about winning trophies. The recognition was about how the Reporter worked with the community during this amazing rebuild effort. As volunteers carried bricks, hammered nails and poured foundations, we helped rebuild the home too – headline by headline, page by page through our coverage. This is what we do as a community newspaper and what community means to us. To see this project through was our true reward and we are thankful to have been a part of it.

For Kirkland supports Transit Oriented Development. We are a non-profit organization dedicated to creating a healthy, sustainable city by promoting service to the community, active citizen engagement in city decision making, and an honest dialogue regarding issues facing our community and region. While other cities are looking at how to change their existing business areas to accommodate transit, Kirkland has an opportunity to plan for a transit-oriented community in an integrated way with business development in the proposed Yarrow Bay Business District. The first step is with the Transit Oriented Development at the South Kirkland Parkand-Ride. After much involvement within the community, the council will be looking at a proposal in June to change zoning to enable this TOD at the park-and-ride. The zoning changes would allow for housing, but also put in strong standards about how the site will develop.
For Kirkland supports the TOD and believes that these changes are a win-win-win for Kirkland. The park-and-ride is over capacity on a daily basis. Commuters overflow into the neighborhoods and park their cars there. This will only get worse as tolling on 520 begins later this summer and when more residents explore riding transit. King County, which owns this park-and-ride, received a $6.25 million federal grant to increase parking capacity at the park-and-ride and wants to build a transit-oriented development. This mixed-use development would provide commercial space and housing, and will add 250 new spaces to the park-and-ride. The county will include affordable housing in addition to market rate housing in the TOD. In addition to expanding the affordable housing in Kirkland, convenient access to transit would allow the residents to be less dependent on cars. Recent service changes have increased bus frequency to about 10 minutes. This TOD will be an anchor for the proposed Yarrow Bay Business District. Plans could enable redevelopment of the southern gateway of
Kirkland pedestrian-friendly area with new businesses, residents, and neighborhood services. After a lengthy review and much participation within the community, recommendations by the Planning Commission and Houghton Community Council will address community concerns. The Design Review Board would approve the design of the TOD, provide for appropriate scale and modulation, and ensure safe, friendly pedestrian connections to the park-and-ride, and in the future to the BNSF corridor. This kind of development, and more importantly, this kind of partnership and creativity is exactly what Kirkland needs.
Dan Krehbiel, For Kirkland president
For Kirkland is not for Kirkland the way it should be For Kirkland group is for Kirkland the way they want it, not for Kirkland the way it should be. Many in the group were influential in creating the traffic mess with all its congestion
and the high residential densities that now have created a city with the most people per acre in the immediate Puget Sound area. They have changed what people wanted when they moved here. The group pushed the idea of Kirkland becoming a “core” city, which led us down the path of some of the worse planning seen since the adoption of the Growth Management Act in 1990. Core cities require the development of business areas. The problem is that business areas require infrastructure and road capacity that will support them. For Kirkland does not know how to plan without ruining what has been the pride of 16 different neighborhoods. At the South Kirkland Park-and-Ride, where are the people who get off the busses going to go? Right through most of the neighborhoods north of the park-and-ride. They will add to already unacceptable traffic jams. For Kirkland will not make the city better for neighborhoods. The mess they’ve created is proof that they don’t know how to plan without ruining the ambiance of what was and should be Kirkland.

CRIME
ALERT
[6] June 3, 2011 [ HOME from page 1] so much to me,� said Milkin in his new bedroom full of TV cameras, volunteers and friends, holding a picture of his wife and sons who were murdered in the house that was burned to the ground to hide the crimes committed by Conner Schierman. “I am very excited because I feel like I have a future ... This is an amazing Memorial Day and I am most grateful my family is not forgotten.� The finishing touches were still being worked on by more than 60 volunteers Saturday, as Milkin walked under a giant American flag, hanging from Ralph’s Concrete pumptruck’s boom arm, leading to the front door. A knock from the front porch let those inside know that Sgt. Milkin had come home. “There he is,� said Michele Yousef, the community volunteer who has organized all of the donations, workers and organizations from the start, as she scurried to get into position. Painting, landscaping and installing siding on the new garage were all things that Milkin knew the volunteers would be working to finish that day. But the biggest surprise came in care of Bellevue’s Greenbaum Home
www.kirklandreporter.com Furnishings. The business stepped forward with a donation of $35,000 worth of new furnishings that were set up throughout the house. “I was so angry when I heard about the murders,� said Cindy Greenbaum, who lives in Kirkland. She coowns the Greenbaum store with brothers Jon and Steve, who were also at the event. “I felt so much for Sergeant Milkin. It is so tragic and to happen in our own backyard. But I feel like I should be digging in the backyard, too.� The donation came to the house that only had Milkin’s mattress on the upstairs bedroom floor, a single bookcase and one table. “It is so nice to be able to give back to a community that has given so much to us,� said Jon Greenbaum, whose eyes were red from emotions. Milkin gave all three Greenbaum representatives a big hug and thanked them multiple times for filling the house. The donation even included a desk with a picture of his wife and two sons under a lit lamp. “I love this,� said Milkin, fighting back tears. Yousef had a difficult time fighting back the tears as well. “This has been just 16 months for me, but it has been five years for him,� said
Yousef, who became active in community volunteering with one of her three children who has special needs. “He has become a part of my extended family. We all have a connection to him. I feel like I have been able to know Olga and the boys through this process. It was Olga’s dream to remodel the home.� It was that dream that has helped Milkin to heal. “I think Olga is helping to do this,� said Milkin. “What happened to my life is not going to define it.� Along with volunteers and community members, King County Deputy Prosecutor Scott O’Toole attended the homecoming with his son. “I have tried some very high profile cases and never seen such a high level of support, love and generosity. It is just incredible,� said O’Toole, who added that trying the case was the most difficult and draining thing he had ever done. “I wanted to be here. Leo and I have a strong connection and friendship. We had breakfast yesterday and he had no idea what was going to happen today. What the Greenbaums have done is so generous. The community too.� Many of the workers and community volunteers said they have felt a bond grow
with Milkin through the process and many described Milkin as a kind and loving man. One of the biggest groups working on the house on Saturday was Bellevue’s Construction Industry Training Council (CITC) of Washington, which actually crafted classes for students around the rebuild. “We have seven trades all working to help complete the project,� said CITC President Halene Sigmond. “They are all in full support and very excited to be involved. Leonid is a very kind man and we are very honored to do this for him.� CITC members have worked on everything from painting, to plumbing, to carpentry and electrical. The CITC even had some board members, staff and former graduates come out to help. “There is always a special place in my heart for a veteran in need,� said Adam Pinsky, who is a former CITC student, chair of the CITC board and veteran of the first Gulf War. “We take care of our own.� Most of the materials for the rebuild came via donations. One of those donations, the shingles for the garage, came from a couple in Port Townsend. “They drove all the way
Michele Yousef (center) and other volunteers watch Leonid Milkin as he checks out his furnished bedroom Saturday. CARRIE WOOD, Kirkland Reporter down here dropped them off and drove back home,� said Yousef. “Just amazing.� Another community volunteer with construction connections that helped in a big way was Kirkland resident JJ Johnson, owner of Astrof Concrete. “He did the foundation, came back and is now helping to build the deck right now,� said Yousef. “He has done so much.� Another aspect to the creation of the house was the interior design work done by Melaine Thompson, who runs her own business out of Woodinville and a blog called “My Sweet Savannah.� Thompson had driven from Chelan County to Kirkland earlier that morning just to be at the house for Milkin’s return.

fireplace painted by Thompson that read: “We do not remember moments. The richness of life lies in memories we have not forgotten.� Some of Milkin’s family came to see the new home as well. “It is really beautiful. There are a lot of memories,� said Milkin’s sister Annetta. “It is hard to be upstairs. But they are here in memory. It is bittersweet.� Milkin’s uncle Nick also accompanied his nephew and asked if he could help on Saturday. He was told no so he could enjoy the day. “I am a carpenter and asked if I could bring my tools,� said Nick Milkin. “They told me I didn’t need them. They have so many people here.� Sgt. Milkin said that he would like to give something back to the community that has helped him. He and Yousef will work to set up a fund raiser for a scholarship in his family’s name. For now he will settle for a community barbecue sometime after the Fourth of July in the house it took an entire community to build. As for the pain of losing his family, the new house can only go so far, but Milkin is moving forward. “The memories and my love for them is greater than any sorrow,� he said.

very child is different, but there are certain basic principles that can guide parents in ensuring that their children have sound sleep habits. The average number of hours of sleep needed varies by the age of the child. A ballpark figure is 11-12 hours nightly for 5 to 7-year-olds, 10-11 hours for 8 to 11-year-olds, and about 9.5 hours for 12-14-year-olds. Of course this is just an average, and any individual child may require more or less than this. To determine if your child is sleep deprived please

ou may have heard of a cyberbullying case in Issaquah that recently made national news. Two middle school students are potentially facing felony charges for bullying a classmate on Facebook. You might dismiss this as extreme, but in fact, it is much more common than most parents know. Kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; relationships in the real world are mirrored online. When drama erupts among a group of friends, it passes seamlessly from the lunchroom to the chat room and everyone in a social circle knows about it and often even participates via the social network. While bullying is nothing new, when it takes place in the digital world, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like public humiliation on steroids. Photos and cruel comments travel in an instant and can be seen, revisited, reposted, and shared by a huge audience. The cruelties inflicted by cyberbullying are a devastating reality for the majority of tweens and teens. A survey by i-Safe, a leading educator of online safety, found 42 percent of children in grades four through eight have been bullied by others online. And 58 percent didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell their parents or another adult about it. So what can parents do? Even vigilant parents canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t monitor their kids Facebook activity 24/7 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; especially

State budget cuts back funding to LWSD

ning how these reductions will be implemented in its 2011-2012 budget, according to district communication director Kathryn Reith. The state budget will â&#x20AC;&#x153;not likelyâ&#x20AC;? result in teacher layoffs, but it certainly could mean pay cuts for district employees, said Reith. She said the district has â&#x20AC;&#x153;a potential of positions not refillingâ&#x20AC;? because of a number of planned resignations and retirements. Teacher reduction would be made through â&#x20AC;&#x153;attrition, not layoffs,â&#x20AC;? Reith said. The state budget will cut $5.1 million from LWSD operations for each of the next two years. The state budget eliminates the remaining funding for kindergarten through
fourth-grade class enhancements, which helps keep those classes smaller. Two million dollars of this revenue was cut mid-year and the remaining $600,000 will be cut in 2011-12 for a total reduction of $2.6 million. In addition, the state will provide about $2 million less in revenue due to the employee salary allocations. More program cuts and pension-rate contribution increases amount to another $500,000 million impact over each of the next two years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This additional cut further erodes the funding we receive to provide a basic education to our students,â&#x20AC;?

The bipartisan budget approved May 25 by state lawmakers will slash millions of dollars from Lake Washington School District instructional programs over the next two years, according to district officials. The $32.2 billion budget
for 2012-13, approved by state House and Senate representatives in the final minutes of a 30-day special legislative session, trims teacher and classified staff pay by nearly 2 percent and cuts salaries for state administrators by 3 percent. The budget now goes to Gov. Gregoire for her signature. The LWSD is still plan-

release. Reith said district officials are â&#x20AC;&#x153;hitting the ground running to come upâ&#x20AC;? with a revised budget for the 2011-12 school year. Reith declined to speculate on how the class enhancement state cuts will affect class size for the lower grades, but did say: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been getting successive cuts, the state has been cutting back over time. The cumulative impacts of those cuts mean fewer and fewer areas to cut back without hurting kids and classrooms. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know where we are going to implement these cuts,â&#x20AC;? she added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we are trying to determine right now. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to make predictions of what we could or might do.â&#x20AC;? Reith said Superintendent Dr. Chip Kimball will present his proposed 2011-12 budget to the board at the June 20 meeting. The board will then vote on the superintendentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal at the Aug. 8 board meeting.

for sale based on what you paid is a major mistake. Do you sell a car based on what you paid for it originally? Not typically. Yes, cars do depreciate; but when it comes to real estate, many people, until recent years, have been trained to think that homes only appreciate. Well, houses most certainly can build equity, but there has been a sharp lesson about how they can lose value too. Getting what you paid or more for a home depends on many factors, including when you purchased it, current market conditions, economic factors, length of ownership, improvements, and how much time you have to sell. Listing your home based on how much is still owed can cause a seller to list the home for too high of a price. This can quickly result in a painful cycle of price reductions signaling to buyers

advantages include: good schools, neighborhood parks, walking distance to retail stores, close access to freeways, quiet neighborhoods, bright rooms, open floor plans, new appliances and updated features. Now, take a look at your home from that buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perspective and search for a few more unique features worth noting. List your improvements and upgrades. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve put in a tankless water heater or air conditioning, be sure to mention it. While only so much can appear on the Multiple Listing Service, if you have plenty of additions to your home your Realtor/Broker should make a bullet-style list on the flyer. These additional details will help buyers remember your property. It will help your home stand out from the dozens of others that they might be viewing. 2) Listing your home

making their home appealing when buyers come to an open house or drive by it. But these days curb appeal must transfer to web appeal, too. That means that any and all pictures of your home should create web appeal – an instant attraction – drawing the buyer into your home for an in-person look. If your photos or videos are not properly composed with pleasant lighting and are free of clutter and distractions, they won’t appeal to buyers browsing the web. With so many of the searches for homes originating online, it’s worth it to invest in the best photos you can of your home. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words ... and a video of your home can be worth even more if it convinces the buyer to get in the car and make the drive to see the “real” thing!

According to a recent New York Times article, student loan debt outpaced credit card debt for the first time in 2010 and is likely to top $1 trillion in 2011. More students are going to college, and a growing share is borrowing money to do so. When they leave college theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need financial skills to manage that debt.

ith consumer debt skyrocketing and the cost of housing, education, and health care increasing, younger generations face unprecedented challenges to achieving economic security and financial independence.

First and foremost, examine your own money beliefs and behaviors and then take action if necessary to get your financial life in order. An excellent handbook for reaching this goal is â&#x20AC;&#x153;You and Your Money,â&#x20AC;? by Lois A. Vitt and Karen L. Murrell.

[ SOFTBALL from page 1] The Spartans struggled against Rhodes, unable to connect for a base hit until late in the game. By the end of the third the Rebels had added two more runs, followed by a run in the fifth. The Rebels held the 6-0 lead until the bottom of the sixth inning when Bainbridge scored for the 6-1 final score. The Rebels last faced Bainbridge Island during the district semi-finals when Juanita won 3-0. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Allison, she took us on her
back and carried us through the tournament,â&#x20AC;? said Dahl of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pitcher. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Offensively we hit the ball really well. We did everything we needed to. When Allison needed run support, we had her run support and that was huge.â&#x20AC;? He added that catcher Aliah Sweere was instrumental in the tournament, providing hits and closing the gap for the Rebels.
Earlier in the tournament the Rebels defeated another conference foe, beating Bellevue 7-0 in the state semifinals on Saturday morning. During that match, Rhodes struck out 12 batters, while allowing three hits and walking three from the Wolverines squad. The day before, the Rebels beat Everett 9-3 to open the tournament. It was after the win over

Two members of the Lake Sammamish girls lacrosse programs earned all state honors last week. Allison Clements, a junior at Lake Washington High School, was chosen for the girls division I second team, while Madilyn Bechtel, a sophomore at Juanita, was picked for the girls division II first team. Both play for the Lake Sammamish program. Coaches Bailey Su and Tony Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Alessio were chosen as the coaches of the year.
KIRKLAND NATIVE, LINFIELD BASEBALL PLAYER EARNS POST SEASON HONORS Clayton Truex, freshman at Linfield University and Kirkland native was recently honored as a member of the American Baseball Coaches Association All-West region team. Truex, a freshman designated hitter, was named to the third team this spring. He ranked second on the team this year in RBI with 43 and hit a .325. He played in every game this season, including starting three quarters of the matches. He earned a first team all-NWC honor and was the conference player of the week earlier in the season. The Linfield team won its second straight league title this year, and missed the NCAA tournament finals by one game.

Annexation: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fact â&#x20AC;&#x201C; how do we move forward? we can get information is a very large part of understanding. The City of Kirkland tries to use an array of communication strategies from the traditional to exciting opportunities presented by social media. During last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget process the city piloted a blog and RSS and twitter feeds on budget deliberations. Every two years the city conducts a statistically valid survey of resident opinions. Residents from the annexation area have participated on some boards and commissions since 2001, and the council expanded that consideration in early 2010 adding temporary seats specifically for annexation area residents. There is information that is â&#x20AC;&#x153;pushedâ&#x20AC;? to you, for example: City updates, e-mail alerts on subjects you can subscribe to (currently nearly 40 topical areas), special information flyers mailed directly to you and sometimes include d with your utility bill. There is much more that you may seek out at kirklandwa.gov. You may view council meetings on cable television or the Web; and, the week prior, you may review the staff papers on the Web that make recommendations for those meetings. You may directly inquire about a topic or an issue. On the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web site, there is an â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ask a Questionâ&#x20AC;? page. There are also other lists of topical contacts under the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Contact Usâ&#x20AC;? bar. Dave Asher
you and to get to know your city council members. Those relationships can assist with others understanding your position. Keep in mind that in any broad-based situation my way is not always going to be the way that is adopted. Sometimes we get our way. Sometimes we influence the situation a bit. Other times, we see another approach accepted. There are lines of communication among neighbors, between businesses and neighbors, between city government and residents, etc. We need to have all of these functioning well to congenially coexist. The examples we will focus on today deal with those between residents and the City of Kirkland. We depend upon the city to accomplish certain things from emergency response to community events. How we communicate and what we expect from those interactions can range from the vitally important to the casually interesting. You wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want your 911 call referred to a committee for consideration at their next regular meeting, nor would you want to get a phone call when someone across town wants to change the size of their garbage container. We need to fit our information systems with the situation, our level of interest, and the privacy rights of individuals. Knowing how and where
KIRKLAND CONVERSATIONS
K
irkland is the 12th largest city in the state. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fact. Now, how do we handle our new situation? Some may grumble about what might have been, but that is the subject for a different conversation. How do WE proceed from here as one Kirkland? That is what this conversation is about. Today, we will discuss the â&#x20AC;&#x153;how.â&#x20AC;? In a future conversation, we can tackle specific issues of â&#x20AC;&#x153;whatâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;when.â&#x20AC;? Having chaired a neighborhood association after the neighborhood was annexed, I know that not all things will go as everyone would like in all instances. Getting your priority adopted as a city priority may take more than a simple request and usually takes time. This is the same for long-time residents as new residents. The crux of the situation is: can we productively talk with one another about our views and opinions about where we should go from where we are? Patience and persistence usually pay off. Yet, there will certainly be times where you are not getting through or your timeline is different than the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. How you proceed in such a situation is key. It is a question of listening, understanding, and cooperating that goes for all involved. To get results requires having lines of communications that work in relating the issue, the urgency, and the desired outcome. It is a good idea to build relationships with the city staff working on issues that are important to

City staff works to maintain regular communications with neighborhood associations, business associations, and community service organizations. One group that everyone has an opportunity to be involved with is your neighborhood association. New associations are being formed in parts of the new neighborhoods. The Juanita Neighborhood Association is currently working to incorporate new neighbors of, what has been called, North Juanita. The neighborhood page on the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web site provides a wealth of information for residents. For example, there is the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Neighborhood Hot Sheetâ&#x20AC;? created at the request of neighborhood associations to outline what large public and private development is going on in each neighborhood and the status of those. Coming together with a group that holds a common interest gives you a way of learning, clarifying, building support, and joining voices to have a say in matters that interest you. An advantage of these groups is that they generally are involved early in â&#x20AC;&#x153;the processâ&#x20AC;? and understand what is under discussion. You may find yourself trying to change rules that were established years earlier after someone else has relied on that rule. While that may be frustrating you may be able to change rules that apply to future situations. Equally frustrating can be learning about a situation that has been in process for months or years. You may want to have your say late in the process or after decisions have been made. That is where having connections to groups and means of communication are important to keep you informed while you still have an opportunity to shape the outcome. With all the differing methods of communicating we have today, it is a challenge to know what we want as the choices expand, particularly when budgets are so tight. Effective community conversation is a basic topic that rises above specific issues about annexation. It goes to the core of how we come together in community to make things work better. To begin the conversation, we have some questions for you to ponder. Please create your discussion groups, get together and see what answers you come up with for the questions. Return your conclusions, and any additional comments, to the Reporter. You may also complete the survey online at:
YOUR OPINION COUNTS Please fill out the survey below and send to the Kirkland Reporter at 11630 Slater Ave. N.E., Suite 8/9, Kirkland, WA 98034

Understanding impacts and communicating changes in policies may take time. Many rules are enacted where we may not see impacts for several years ( e.g., developments that take advantage of changes or new rules that take a couple of cycles to determine how well they work). How should the city deal with policy changes that may not be evident for months or years after they are enacted? 1.____ Handle changes normally, as feedback occurs. This may take a long time. 2.____ Provide a way to highlight examples of changes as they occur and revisit, as necessary 3.____ Wait for several examples to demonstrate the extent of good and not good changes 4.____ Let me do what I want, but ensure that limits are placed on my neighbors 5.____ Develop a responsive mechanism to react to changes that are not apparently working. 6.____ Other. Please specify: ___________________ _____________ kirklandreporter.com. We will publish the results that will be relayed to the council. Your care in engaging with your acquaintances to discuss improvements to our community is the way we build a community conversation around important
topics. Given the challenges we have, how do we best move forward together with a much larger city? Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s have a conversation.
