Junior Softball World Series will welcome 6,000 people and ESPN to city By Matt Phelps mphelps@kirklandreporter.com
The Junior Softball World Series (JSWS) is one of the biggest sporting events of the year in Kirkland. Nine fast-pitch teams from all over the world will play at Everest Park Sunday through Saturday. But one team will be attempting to defend their home turf. “Kirkland has been the host team five or six years,” said JSWS tournament di-
rector John Chadwick. “But they have never won it.” The host team is the first in a while to be solely comprised of players from the Kirkland American and Kirkland National Little Leagues. Other host teams have come from the surrounding area, such as Bellevue or Redmond. The JSWS is part of the national Little League organization and this will be its 14th year in Kirkland.

Juanita Beach Park was packed last weekend as temperatures went into the 90s for the first time in two years. But it was tempers that were hot last summer when the park’s redevelopment was not completed on time. Now, city documents
reveal that those delays not only cost Kirkland residents time in the park last summer but could ultimately cost the city an additional $346,000. “Because of our conservative budgeting process we have a capital projects reserve of $4 million to deal with this,” said Kirkland City Manager Kurt Triplett. “That is one of the reasons we have a AAA rating.

But delays set the completion date back more than two years, from spring of 2009 to August 2011. State funds are only distributed if projects are completed on time. The limit of two extensions expired on
June 1, 2011. The project’s original construction company, DMSL Inc. of Arlington, was terminated on June 3, 2011.

Police Blotter The blotter feature is both a description of a small selection of police incidents and a statistical round-up of all calls to the Kirkland Police Department that are dispatched to on-duty police officers. 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 Aug. 1-7 the Kirkland Police Department reported 548 traffic violations (five DUIs), 39 alarm calls, 35 noise complaints, 14 calls for malicious mischief, 14 calls of disturbance, 11 thefts, 12 car prowls, 10 acts of traffic abandonment, eight animal calls, eight calls of civil disturbance, seven reported burglaries, seven domestic violence calls, six acts of fraud and six juvenile calls. At least 35 people were arrested.
ish the project after DMSL was terminated. “Financial projections during the Marshbank phase were difficult to pinpoint, since not all of the costs could be anticipated,” stated the memo. The urgency to which the project needed to be com-
pleted resulted in a no-bid contract for Marshbank. Triplett said that city officials called around to different companies but did not formally bid out the project. “No one would do a bid because they didn’t know the risks,” said Triplett. A bidding process would
have also taken six additional weeks. The contract was ultimately worth $1.4 million. DMSL was paid $897,000 for its work on the project. The original estimate for the cost of the project was $1.18 million. Triplett said despite the fact
that this was an “extremely rare” case the city has made changes. “We did a deep evaluation of the all the processes that go into these types of projects,” said Triplett.

A new perspective on Kirkland

Raechel Dawson
bout four years ago I went to an unfamiliar hospital to get some routine x-rays. I was born with hip dyplasia and the x-rays were to make sure things were running smoothly (and they are). As I hopped up on the table and put the huge lead apron over my chest to protect me from radiation, the technician took the x-rays and nonchalantly asked me where I was from. When I replied, “Renton,” he responded with surprise: “Oh? You look like you’re from Kirkland, not Renton…” In doing so, the man prompted me to think about Kirkland in a way that was different from my home in Renton. What part of me signified Kirkland? The way my hair looked? The brand of my clothing? The color of my skin? As the last thought lingered, my first impression of Kirkland began to form. If I look like I belong to Kirkland, what did people from Renton look like? The 2010 U.S. Census Bureau bluntly states it: 79.3 percent of Kirkland residents are white. And those statistics didn’t change much with the annexation. (Inglewood-Finn Hill has 82.1 percent white people and Kingsgate has 73.1 percent white people.) While Renton is far from the most “balanced” city, its larger population has 54.6 percent white residents. Now, as a beginning reporter, fresh out of college, 22 years old with a hunger for life, I reflect on the moment with the x-ray technician and all of the moments in between. It is now my job to report, observe and document the goings-on of the Kirkland community and I

can safely say I know more about the Kirkland City Council now than my own city’s council. I have a lot of places to go in Kirkland and a lot more people to meet. But I love it here! The downtown buzz on a sunny day and the small-town feel in a modern era are delightful. Even its disastrous Totem Lake Malls are hilarious despite the strife they’ve caused. The city and its people, while more homogeneous than Renton, have a tight community that has been very welcoming. But it prompts me to bring forth a very real discussion on an everlasting setback. Kirkland, for the most part, is an affluent city. There is relatively low crime compared to other Washington cities and even less compared to other U.S. cities. Clearly, Kirkland is a great place to live but with the pros, come the cons. When the majority of people are
the same, it is possible that important and unique perspectives may be ignored or buried. And this is where I come in. As long as I am a reporter for the Kirkland Reporter, I will strive to be equal to all ethnicities by allowing voices and opinions to be heard in the stories I write. My job as a reporter is to be fair, not just for credibility’s sake, or even for those who get left behind. But to be fair for the good of a society and the population’s minorities, no matter their economic or cultural background, so that readers can learn, grow and prosper equally. For more statistics about ethnicities in cities please see the U.S. Census Bureau (http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/nav/jsf/pages/searchresults. xhtml?refresh=t).

Field Turf was a good investment Though I appreciate the concern about school funding of Reggie Gausman, who wrote on July 25 about the cost of the field replacement at Juanita High School, I want to provide him and other interested readers with additional information on that field and its use. Firstly, let me thank the voters who approved the school district’s Capital Projects Levy in February 2010, which provides the funding for projects such as an expanded school cafeteria and the field replacement at Juanita High School.

He then proceeded to ask me about a violation from 2007, he asked “What can you tell me about your negligent driving from ‘07?” I responded that I had gotten a DUI when I was 17 and that it was handled in court. He then began to continue to talk about it referring to “drinking while driving” and asking me if I had “learned my lesson.” He was extremely rude, and made me feel as if I was required to answer these questions about my past. I asked politely to choose his wording better, he acted confused and said “like what?” I asked to not mention drinking, in front of the two boys. He seemed annoyed by my request, and began to ask me more personal questions about cases from years prior. He mentioned drugs, being reckless and asked if I was still drinking while driving. After the second question about another charge that was dropped, I said firmly “That was handled in court, and I don’t think we need to discuss it at this time.” He finally let me go with no ticket. I left there and was mortified when my little boys started to ask me questions about drinking and why the police man was talking about drugs.

My eyes quickly settled upon a table of three couples, all very handsomely dressed. The sommelier was anxiously standing by just having presented one of the diners with the bottle of wine they ordered. The wine steward poured the prerequisite 1 ounce of wine to taste for the diner’s approval. First, the diner sniffed the cork – every inch of that cork. Then, he deftly raised his stemmed wine glass, and proceeded to stick his nose deep inside the glass and breath deeply. He seemed to know exactly what to look for!

Now it gets personal.” Northwest Cellars prides itself on making excellent quality wines, with the option of a custom label. They purchase grapes grown in many of the top vineyards in Eastern Washington and work closely with consulting winemaker Robert Smasne to produce award-winning wines. One hundred cases of their Viognier, a lovely white wine, is made right here in their Kirkland winery with the guidance of local consulting winemaker, Dave Moore! It gets even more personal because if you choose, you can design your own wine bottle label that the production manager will be happy to affix to any bottles of

They work closely with Laura Olsen, a graphic/web designer and amazing watercolor artist. The exceptional photography of Richard Duval, a local photographer, has also been featured on the winery’s labels.

Waste Management and Teamsters Local 117, the union for the company’s truck drivers, reached an unexpected agreement on Aug. 1. The move put garbage haulers back on Kirkland streets the next day. The unexpected agreement comes just one day after Waste Management announced that it would hire replacement drivers. But the strike will mean fines for Waste Management. “We have maintained our ability to fine the company but we are in uncharted territory,” said Kirkland City Manager Kurt Triplett. “The contract is pretty clear.” That contract between the city and Waste Management states that a fine can be levied for each block of uncollected garbage, recycle and yard waste. But figuring out what blocks were collected and if all three types of waste were picked up is difficult in a city the size of Kirkland. Triplett said that the city had personnel out on the streets to try to assess how widespread the issue became. “We may disagree on how many blocks total,” said Triplett. “It will take us another couple of weeks to figure it out on our side.”
Waste Management may dispute how many blocks were uncollected and mediation could be required. Triplett sent a letter to Waste Management on July 31 informing the company of the coming fines. Kirkland Solid Waste Programs Lead, John MacGillivray, said that there was a high level of frustration expressed by Kirkland residents. “We received a number of phone calls,” said MacGillivray. “I personally answered over 100 calls.” No contract details between Waste Management and the union were released. The drivers voted overwhelmingly in favor, 109-14, for the new six-year contract Thursday in Tukwila. Waste Management announced that garbage drivers returned to work Aug. 2. However, due to the timing of the ratification vote, recycling and yard waste collection was limited. “Teamster drivers work hard and deserve fair compensation for the important work that they perform,” announced Tracey Thompson, Secretary Treasurer for Teamster Local 117. “We are pleased to have negotiated a contract that recognizes the professionalism of our members.”

Plan for major road closure on 108th Ave. N.E. in Kirkland The City of Kirkland will completely close 108th Ave. N.E. at N.E. 53rd Street to traffic in all directions for up to ten consecutive days starting Aug. 14. Commuters should use the alternate routes of Lake Washington Boulevard N.E. and I-405, as well as plan for extra time along these routes. During the intersection closure and partial road closures, emergency vehicle and local access will be maintained. Construction workers will replace the sewer main line in N.E. 53rd Street, from the middle of 108th Ave. N.E., east to the intersection at 111th Ave. N.E. As part of the project, sewer manholes along the way will also be replaced. The manhole at 108th Ave. N.E. and N.E. 53rd Street is over 25-feet deep and replacement requires complete
closure of the intersection. After the ten-day period of closure, and 108th Ave. N.E. will be reopened and construction will continue east up N.E. 53rd Street with lane closures until November. This stretch of sewer pipe is part of an aging system which is undersized and past its expected life span. Existing root intrusion and groundwater inflow into the sewer pipe requires more frequent maintenance. The manhole at the intersection of N.E. 53rd Street and 108th Ave. N.E. lacks structural integrity, is undersized and substandard and does not meet current worker access and safety standards.
KPD Explorers take top honors at national conference The Kirkland Police Department’s Explorers Team placed first in one of many competitions the team participated in at the National Law Enforcement Exploring Conference held in Ft.

Crime Prevention scenario and Jeffery Pope and Luke Olsen came close to placing first in the Domestic Violence Investigation exercise. “In five days of seminars, as well as 12 separate team competition scenarios, KPD Explorers set themselves apart from their competitors,” notes Lt. Mike Murray. “They were the ambassadors of the Kirkland Police Department and represented the City of Kirkland with great honor and we are all very proud of them and their accomplishments.” Kirkland Police Department Explorers team were Eggleston, Pope, Elizabeth Luksetich, Guerra, Olsen and Jesse Dimak. The six participated in seminars as well as the team and individual competitions. They participated with over 4,500 Explorers from across the United States including Puerto Rico.

The other three passengers were transported to area hospitals. Juanita Drive was closed for several hours, at 76th Place N.E. heading south and N.E. 120th Street heading north, following the crash.

ITH Cares’ executive director, Jan Dickerman, has announced she will officially retire between the end of September and early October. “It has been a real privilege to be here at KITH and be able to guide the organization for these last almost five years,” said Dickerman. “And I’m really happy I’ve been able to accomplish the things that I feel that I’ve set out to do.” Dickerman started her social-work career in 1980 and has been with KITH since March 2008. During her time with KITH, she created many housing programs within the Kirklandbased homeless agency. Kirkland Interfaith Transition in Housing is a nonprofit organization, which began more than 20 years ago with the goal to help homeless families. Dickerman estimates KITH helped just under 50 families last year, half of which were previous Kirkland residents. Some of its major programs include Welcome Home, Lease on Life, Lending Hope and their Case Management Program. KITH helps people through its leadership and organization, but Dickerman said the nonprofit wouldn’t be where it is

Footwear Crush sparks new Kirkland shoe business (web design) to starting an e-commerce site selling shoes, and now opening a shoe store.” Their online site has been in business since October of 2010. Like many online businesses, they initially outsourced their order fulfillment to a warehouse that stored their shoes, while maintaining an average of 4.7 stars out of five in customer satisfaction. One customer in May commented, “Thanks so much for the extraordinary customer service - the phone call, the twitter shout-out. You guys are great. I’ll definitely keep you all in mind next time I’m shoe shopping.” Another customer, in 2011, remarked, “You’ve gone above and beyond to ensure good quality.” The success of their e-commerce site fueled a desire to open their own brick-and-mortar storefront. At first, they rented office space in the San Juan Islands. But eventually they decided to bring their business - and residence - to a more communal region. With this

hen Rhonda Herbert was asked about how she went from traveling the world with her significant other while doing medical research, to living on a sailboat in the San Juans, to opening a shoe store in Kirkland, her answer was simple: “I love shoes. I’ve always had a passion for shoes. The right shoes not only complete an outfit, but they can boost our confidence and the way we feel about ourselves.” Rhonda met Neal Hughes in 2009 at a bookstore in Seattle. At that time, she worked as a clinical-trial manager and he was an entrepreneur (he has owned a variety of businesses). Soon after, Herbert decided to take some time off from her work in biotech and pursue one of their shared passions: sailing. The two lived on a

sailboat and explored the Broughton Archipelago in British Columbia. It was then that she became interested in learning the ins and outs of constructing a website. “Neal helped me to learn about websites and
online marketing, and I helped him to learn about the world beyond sneakers. We also realized we love working together,” she said. “Looking back, the transition seemed so natural. From my desire to find a creative outlet
in mind, they felt Kirkland would be the perfect fit. “We researched many locations to start a shoe store, and we realized we wanted to locate our store in an area that had a sense of community. Kirkland is just far enough from the city, and has a small-town feel to it,” Hughes said. “We have chosen to make it the location of our store as well as our home.” Herbert feels that the name of their store, Crush Footwear, speaks for itself. “We wanted a name that was feminine and that also conveyed a love of shoes. A crush is a romantic attachment, a longing, or a desire - for many women - and this relates to shoes,” she said. The store is anticipating a soft opening in early August in order to prepare for its grand opening several weeks later, and is located at 339 Kirkland Ave. For more information, visit their website at www. crushfootwear.com M.J.

Man drowns off Denny Park in Kirkland attempting to retrieve a ball from lake mphelps@kirklandreporter.com
A 54-year-old man drowned in Lake Washington Aug. 1 near Denny Park at the base of Finn Hill, according to Kirkland Police. The man was later identified as David Ulm, as stated by the King County Medical Examiner’s Office. “It appears the male victim was attempting to help retrieve a ball from the water
at the request of a female also using the park,” said Kirkland Police Sgt. Rob Saloum. “The victim reached the ball but then struggled in the water before going under.” The death has been ruled an accident by investigators. Kirkland Fire and Police were called just after 9 p.m. to 12032 Holmes Point Drive N.E. on a report of a male in the water drowning. Kirkland Fire Rescue
divers arrived on scene first and were able to rescue two additional swimmers who had attempted to save the victim. One of the swimmers was a bystander and the other was the victim’s wife. However, Ulm was not able to be saved and was later located and pulled from the water by Mercer Island Marine Divers. King County Marine and Seattle Marine Patrol also responded to the scene to provide assistance in the rescue.

The city supports the event with $6,000 from lodging taxes. In return, Chadwick estimates that the event will generate 1,202 room nights in local hotels and $15,800 spent at Kirkland restaurants. “It is one of the events that generate dollars from tourism - more so than any other,” said City of Kirkland Economic Development Manager Ellen Miller-Wolfe. “And we fund it at a relatively low level.” The event will deal with a major traffic issue this year. The City of Kirkland will completely close 108th Ave. N.E. at N.E. 53rd Street to traffic in all directions for up to ten consecutive days starting Aug. 14. A second road closer at the intersection of Railroad Ave. and Kirkland Ave., which was not scheduled to open in time, has been completed early. Railroad Ave. is one of two main thoroughfares to the park. But no matter how teams get to the park, the Kirkland team is hoping to leave with the trophy.

The semifinals and finals are broadcast live on ESPN. “When most people think of the Little League World Series they think of Williamsport, Penn.,” said Chadwick. “But that is only for one age group.” Williamsport plays host to the 12-year-old boys of the Little League organization. In all, there are eight different world series for each age group of Little League baseball and softball. “There are more people playing at that age group than any other so they get more sponsorships,” said Chadwick, about the attention paid to the tournament in Williamsport. The same goes for girls softball. But the popularity of the sport is more spread

For Dental Implant Treatment, it’s a ClearChoice! ClearChoice team of specialists brings you a dental implant solution that fits your budget ... in just one day!* A LEADER IN DENTAL IMPLANT TREATMENT Virtually every adult will lose a tooth, and as we get older, more Americans will suffer with missing and failing teeth. These days, however, there are dental implant solutions that either didn’t exist in the past or which were difficult to access. But now, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers are leading the way in innovative dental implant treatments. Dental Implants are a permanent solution for dental problems. And now your treatment, from our team of specialists, can often be accomplished in just one day *… and without the need for additional bone graft surgeries. In fact, dental implants can last a lifetime and have become the treatment of choice for replacement of missing and failing teeth. With more than 10,000 dental implant procedures performed, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers have become a leader in dental implant treatment delivery. TECHNOLOGY Every ClearChoice Dental Implant Center includes an on-site 3D CAT Scan. The 3D CAT Scan technology costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. This technology provides three-dimensional and cross-sectional views that allow ClearChoice doctors to examine the quality and density of the bone that will anchor the dental implants; select the correct type and size of implants; determine the precise placement of implants, and avoid the nerves and sinuses. Since every smile is custom designed, each ClearChoice Center has a specialized Dental Implant in-house lab to custom make your smile. They said they had specialists, a lab, and high tech equipment all at one location, but I had no idea that they could really do all of this in just one day!* — Actual ClearChoice patient

Actual ClearChoice Patient
TEAM OF SPECIALISTS The technology alone cannot elevate ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers in their field. Our technology is paired with an expert professional team of doctor specialists enabling ClearChoice to empower so many patients around the country to change their lives. These qualified specialists include an oral surgeon who places implants, and a prosthodontist who designs your custom new smile. Each of the doctors has special expertise and can be trusted to deliver your high quality implant care. Dental Implants are a surgical procedure and the ClearChoice doctors have extensive experience in this area including administering anesthesia to provide comfort. Custom fabrication of the patient’s new smile and replacement teeth are accomplished by trained lab technicians in the on-site dental implant lab. Our local specialists are available for a FREE initial consultation or even second opinions. Why wait, call now! SATISFACTION & WARRANTY Whether for a missing single tooth, multiple teeth or a whole mouthful of missing or failing teeth, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers provide comprehensive implant treatment professionally and affordably in a fraction of the time it would take many other professionals. That’s why in an independent study of thousands of patients, ClearChoice patients would overwhelmingly recommend ClearChoice to others† and we warranty our work.
“I suffered with bad teeth since I was a teenager. Imagine dealing with failing teeth so young in life. As a musician, I’m often in front of an audience. I wanted a rock star smile ... and now I have one.” - Kurt C., real ClearChoice patient
Tooth loss is not your fault. Doing nothing about it is. Come see how easy it is to live the comfortable life you deserve ...
Our risk free consultation will show you how.
