Students crowd into Rosa Parks ‘We’re bursting at the seams,’ parent says of elementary school’s enrollment

Frustrations ran high at Lake Washington School District’s (LWSD) school board meeting on Monday as members of the Redmond Ridge community shared with trustees their concerns about the overcrowding issue at Rosa Parks Elementary School. As of this week, the school’s population is 789 — 25 more than the district’s August projections for this year and 76 more than the school’s total capacity, which includes 10 portable classrooms. The capacity for just the building is 483. Julianne Bogaty, whose daughter is in second grade at Rosa Parks, said one of their main concerns stems from the fact that the school has been overcrowded for a number of years, but the issue has been continuously put on hold to the point that it has reached a state of emergency. “This is an individual issue that needs immediate action,” she said. “We’re going up and up. We’re bursting at the seams.” The next biggest elementary school is Louisa May Alcott Elementary School just outside of Redmond, which has a population of 659.
Neha Ramanath, a former Rosa Parks Elementary School District student, tells Lake Washington School District’s board of directors how being in a portable classroom hindered her education. The fifth-grader now attends Explorer Community School, a choice school in Redmond. SAMANTHA PAK, Redmond Reporter this spike in population has been the addition of Redmond Ridge East, a new development that has grown significantly in the past few years. Children from this community, which Bogaty said is separated from Redmond Ridge by a forest, as well as some main roads, also attend Rosa Parks. Suggestions have been made to send students in these neighborhoods to Laura Ingalls Wilder Elementary School in Woodinville, which is a little less than three miles north and has a population of 343. The school’s capacity is 552 students. Bogaty said Redmond Ridge and Redmond Ridge
East are each distinct and self-contained neighborhoods, which would make the separation easier. Once the commenting period of the board meeting concluded, LWSD board member Chris Carlson said he would like to hear from members of the Redmond Ridge East community and their take on the issue since no one was present Monday.
NEED FOR A NEW SCHOOL
Aubree Scolnick, who has lived in Redmond Ridge East for two years and has a preschooler set to attend Rosa Parks soon, said she wonders why students aren’t being filtered into Wilder. “That would help at least

temporarily to put a small dent in the problem,” she said. Scolnick acknowledged that with a population nearing 800 at Rosa Parks, they could only send so many students to Wilder for fear of overcrowding that school. “Clearly a new school will have to be built at some point,” she said. “The community is growing at a rapid pace…so one will see more and more families trickling in and a need to have a quality, well-functioning school for their children to attend.” Scolnick said when she first heard about the overcrowding issue at Rosa [ more school page 3]
People like what they’ve seen and heard so far, and City of Redmond Parks Director Craig Larsen said there’s more good things on the horizon. Starting with the Downtown Park — in its infancy stages on 161st Avenue Northeast and bordered by Redmond Way and Cleveland Street — Larsen noted that he wants it to be a “living room for downtown residents” at last week’s First Friday Coffee Chat at the Redmond Senior Center. Larsen, who has been a parks director for 34 years (six with Redmond, four with Lynnwood and 24 with King County), feels the Sundays in the Park musical performances have been a solid start for the two-acre
space, which will eventually be a gathering spot for arts, music and family events and feature a bandstand, coffee shop and more. (Half of the property is covered in grass now while the city completes acquisition of the remaining acre.) The city is planning for a grand-opening event come 2018-19. Cleveland Condominiums resident Linda Gonzalez, one of 15 attendees at the chat, said she enjoyed listening to the jazz band in the park near her residence on a recent Sunday. “I sat on the deck and had dinner. It’s fantastic,” she said. “(Redmond) is getting better all the time.” Added Larsen: “We envision the park full of people, full of busy activity going on.” [ more park page 9 ]

Lake Washington Institute of Technology (LWIT) will hold a public memorial honoring the life and accomplishments of college president Dr. David Woodall at 11 a.m. on Sept. 27 in the LWIT Library at 11605 132nd Ave. N.E. in Kirkland. Woodall died from a heart attack on Sept. 3. Additionally, the Lake Washington College Foundation created the Dr. David Woodall Vision Fund for those wishing to make a donation in Dr. Woodall’s name. The foundation’s decision to create and name this fund stems directly from Woodall’s passionate vision for the college, community and LWIT students. To donate, visit www.lw tech.edu/Foundation and click on “Donate.” Once on the donation page, type in “The Dr. David Woodall Vision Fund” in the “Purpose” box and the donation will go toward that fund.

Parks, she wasn’t too concerned because there were plans to build a new elementary school that would split the population. This new school was part of a failed $234 million bond measure in 2010. LWSD has plans to issue another bond in 2014, which would include a new elementary school on Redmond Ridge. However, it would take another couple years for the school to be complete — if the bond even passes.
MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL
Kathryn Reith, communications director for LWSD, said they dealt with a similar overcrowding issue on the Sammamish Plateau at Samantha Smith Elementary School, which was close to 800 students for a few years before Rachel Carson Elementary School opened in 2008. She said when they went through the re-boundary process for the plateau, they surveyed parents, asking for specific criteria in how they thought the community should be split. Reith said they would need
but it seems to me that we would not need to change boundaries if we implement a temporary solution by ‘variancing’ some students,” she said. “It may not solve the overcrowding problem, but it would ease the burden a little in the short term.” Reith said the district approaches variances on in an individual basis. The district does not suggest it as it is not very efficient.
COMMUNITY MEETING
On Sept. 27 at 6:45 p.m., LWSD Superintendent Dr. Traci Pierce and other district officials will meet with the community to work on both short-term and long-term solutions to the overcrowding problem. The meeting will be at Rosa Parks, located at 22845 N.E. Cedar Park Crescent on Redmond Ridge. In the meantime, some
immediate action has been taken to mitigate some of the issues: Additional aide time has been allocated to lower the student-to-adult ratio on the playground during lunch recess; recess has been split to so only two grades are on the playground at once. Marcia Garcia will serve as associate principal and district funding will be provided to the building budget to help offset some costs for the school.

to have a similar process for Rosa Parks and Wilder. “There’s two schools involved here,” she said. “We have a responsibility as a school district to ask the right questions of all the potential parties involved.” Sharon Brunelle, who has a fifth-grader at Wilder, said she thinks it makes sense to have some of Rosa Parks’ students apply for variance and transfer to Wilder until a more permanent solution, such as a new school, is attained. Variance is when a student attends a school outside their neighborhood. “With the loss of the sixthgraders (due to the districtwide grade reconfiguration), Wilder now has some classrooms sitting empty,” she said. “Why not ease the burden on Rosa Parks by transferring some students to Wilder? I don’t see a downside for anyone.” Brunelle added that it has also become more difficult for them to find volunteers to fill vacant positions at Wilder — having a larger parent pool to draw from would be a plus. “I understand the boundary issue is a hot button,

Do your homework to find the best candidate The Republicans have nominated Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan as their candidates for president and vice president. The Democrats have nominated Barack Obama and Joe Biden as their choices. This means the race for the White House — and all the other political offices — shifts into high gear. Unfortunately, it also means voters will be bombarded by attack ads and untruths. Despite what you may read and hear in the next few months, we doubt that the people running for office are ax murderers, child molesters or serial killers. OK, so they really won’t be accused of that, but much of what opponents say about them won’t be true, either. It’s sad that negative advertising has become such a force in our elections, but studies say voters are swayed by such tactics. As a result, almost anything goes. But that doesn’t mean you have to be taken along for the ride. Voters are served best when they seek out and understand what a candidate champions and what he or she says are his or her priorities if elected. If a candidate’s priorities align with yours, you may have someone you should support.

Villeneuve was ‘spot on’

It’s also worthwhile — but it takes some work — to see what type of experience and/or background a candidate would bring to the job if elected. While there’s no guarantee that this makes for the best candidate, it can give a voter a feeling if the person is up to the task if elected. How to ferret all of this out? The Reporter has helped by publishing profiles about the local candidates, which include how they define the issues in the campaign and how they would deal with them. Voters also are helped by attending candidate forums to see first-hand how the candidates respond under pressure
Unlike Sept. 7 letter writer Dick Bowne, who found Andrew Villeneuve’s column on the 2012 Republican Convention “myopic,” I thought Villeneuve was “spot on.” I, too, disagree with nearly everything the Republican party stands for. In addition to saving the auto industry — no small feat, Obama managed to get health care reform passed, ended the war in Iraq, eliminated Osama bin Laden, repealed “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell,” toppled Moammar Gaddafi, increased support for veterans and boosted fuel efficiency standards, to name just a few, despite opposition from Republicans. As for oil drilling in Brazil, according to the Export-Import Bank of the U.S., an agency whose mission is to assist in financing the export of U.S. goods and services to international markets, the bank’s bipartisan board unanimously approved the preliminary commitment to Petrobas in April 2009, before any Obama appointee joined the bank. At the time, the board consisted of three Republicans and two Democrats, all appointed by George W. Bush. In addition, the bank is self-sustaining and does not receive any appropriated funds from Congress and its actions do not cost the American taxpayer a dime. As for Solyndra, it’s too bad that it failed, but it is a bump on the road to clean energy. The unfortunate part is that the R&D that American engineers developed will be utilized by China. Maybe we should have held on a little longer. This story, too, has bipartisan roots — George W. Bush signed the bill, which launched the En-
ergy Department’s first loan program and Solyndra was selected as the first of 143 applicants to receive it.

When left meets right What happens when a liberal blogger and activist speaks to an audience of conservatives? A standing ovation! On Wednesday, Aug. 29 at the VFW Hall in Redmond, national speaker and author Rosa Koire wowed a gathering of more than 150 citizens when she spoke about the United Nation’s plan for the 21st century. At this event, organized by Washington Citizens for a Sustainable Economy, a coalition of Tea Party groups from across the Eastside addressed a topic of concern to people across the political spectrum. Rosa talked about her experiences as a forensic commercial appraiser and the battles she faced as she worked her way through the maze of “smart growth” policies, visioning meetings and “consensus” building, only to discover at the core, Agenda 21. Her book, “Behind the Green Mask: Agenda 21,” offers a blueprint for citizens to expose and fight back against those that would erode our civil liberties, seize our private property and restrict access to our wild lands, using environmentalism as a smokescreen.

Realtor favors McKenna Washington is moving in the wrong direction. Too many families are still out of work. Schools are under funded. Olym-
pia has been wringing it hands for years, instead of rolling up its sleeves. That must change. But real change — not just new political promises from those who have repeatedly failed Washington’s families — will require a competent new leader as Washington’s governor. The more I learn, the more I understand that Rob McKenna is the governor we need. Rob has the heart, skill and vision to get Washington back on track. He has a solid plan that makes sense. As attorney general, Rob showed he knows how to make government more efficient, insist on excellence and inspire workers to give their best. As a realtor, I appreciate the fact Rob McKenna listened to small-business owners in the 14 Small Business Roundtables he hosted throughout the state. The smallbusiness owners who can actually create new jobs told Rob how state government can help, and avoid hurting, the family businesses that can create good jobs for other families who are still out of work. Rob McKenna has the ability to work with everyone, even those who disagree with him. Rob worked “across the aisle” with Democrats, Independents and Republicans to pass dozens of bills to protect Washington consumers. That skill is badly needed in Olympia. Based on what I’ve heard from both candidates, and based on what they actually accomplished for Washington families, the clear choice for governor is Rob McKenna.

DO YOUR TEETH MATCH YOUR SKIN AND HAIR?
Both men and women often go to great lengths to conceal signs of aging. Whether they simply apply moisturizers to their skin and color their hair or get Botox treatments and undergo hair-transplant procedures, most people want to project the most youthful image possible. While these and other cosmetic procedures are quite effective at eliminating wrinkles and enhancing hair, they can be betrayed by stained teeth. To put it bluntly, yellow teeth do not go with smooth skin and lush hair. Fortunately, this is very easy to correct. Tooth-whitening ranks among the fastest, easiest, and most effective cosmetic dentistry procedures. Professional tooth-whitening can bring teeth several shades closer to white in a single office visit. In addition to tooth-whitening, tooth-contouring, bonding procedures, and veneers can also erase years from crooked, chipped, and discolored teeth. Can we improve your smile? With all the coffee, wine, smoking and other foods that have the ability to stain our teeth on a daily basis, even proper maintenance can sometimes leave them a little lackluster. At NW FAMILY and SPORTS DENTISTRY, we are currently accepting new patients and welcome you to call 425.641.4111 to schedule an appointment.

in the gaming industry found companies with the intention to sell and make money. He founded GPG with the intention to create video games because that is his passion. “I turned down many, many offers (to sell),� he said. Taylor’s passion for gaming began when he was young. As a teen in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, he discovered computers in 1980 and became hooked. He began writing code and creating games in his mid teens on a computer his father bought for him from RadioShack. “This changed my whole life,� Taylor said. “It was pure magic.� That magic comes from the ability to write a code and see the resulting animated images, he said. Taylor said when he began his career, video games were still new and attending a school such as DigiPen Institute of Technology in Redmond was out of the question. “There were probably three books in the world (on the topic),� he said. “You had to learn all of this on your own.� But this didn’t stop Taylor, whose passion for the industry
has never faded. On Sept. 22 from 10-11:30 a.m., he will be sharing his passion for video games at DigiPen at 9931 Willows Rd. N.E. during the fourth annual Redmond Digital Arts Festival. “It’s always a blast to hear him speak,� said Kamal Siegel, program director for the festival. The festival will feature lectures, mixed-media performances and other interactive activities at DigiPen on the weekend. From Sept. 24-28, there will be evening talks given by local digital artists at SoulFood Books at 15748 Redmond Way in downtown Redmond. This is the first time the festival has featured these talks. The cost of the festival is $45 for a one-day pass or $65 for an eight-day pass. Children younger than 11 are free and teens 12-18 are half price. Siegel said prices for individual evening talks at SoulFood Books will be about $10 and teens will also be half price.

Benzaoui is focused on sustainability with leadership team Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com
Sustainability is a word that has been used with increasing frequency in the last few years, and one Redmond teen is learning firsthand what exactly the word means as a member of the Watershed Report Student Leadership Team. Josef Benzaoui, a junior at the International Community School in Kirkland, joined the team about a year and a half ago after learning about it at a Redmond Youth Partnership Advisory Committee (RYPAC) meeting. Peter Donaldson, executive producer and leadership coach for the Watershed Report, came in as a guest speaker and shared with the teens an overview of what they do. Benzaoui said he became interested because the project would give him an opportunity to draw on technical skills he gained while creating a documentary video for the National History Day competition. He would also have the chance to learn more about how he could help the

Redmond resident and high school junior Josef Benzaoui speaks at the third annual Watershed Report event at REI in Seattle. Courtesy photo environment. “(The Watershed Report) seemed like an interesting combination,” the 16-year-old said.
LOCAL SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTS
The program is one of four with Friends of the Cedar River Watershed, a nonprofit whose mission is to engage people to enhance and sustain watersheds through restoration, education and stewardship. The Watershed Report is a series of short videos
produced by high-school students that track positive sustainability trends in the 13 school districts and 28 cities of the greater Lake Washington Watershed. This is the land area in which rainwater drains to Lake Washington and out through the Hiram Chittenden Locks in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood. The students cover all aspects of sustainability ranging from green infrastructure to transportation to waste management. “Every habit we have, especially with storm water… has a huge impact,” Donald-
son said. Benzaoui said one interesting thing he has learned from his time on the team has been how much green and sustainable work is being done in King County and the greater Seattle area. He said they have learned about and visited various sites such as the Bullitt Center in Seattle, the greenest commercial building in the world, and the zHome in Issaquah, which uses a net energy of zero at the end of the year. “That was one of the big things that was an eye opener for me,” Benzaoui said.
A STUDENT-RUN PRODUCTION
This is the Watershed Report’s third year and they currently have 16 student members representing seven school districts — Lake Washington, Bellevue, Issaquah, Northshore, Seattle, Shoreline and Tahoma — Donaldson said. New videos are produced each year with the most up-to-date information collected by the students, who do the research work, as well as the video work. This process students go
through is called Watershed College and they receive more than 100 hours of training in systems thinking, project management, policy analysis, public speaking and broadcast journalism, Donaldson said. He added that the program has now partnered with Bellevue College and students can now earn college credit through Running Start. On Wednesday, the new videos premiered at a special screening event at the REI store in downtown Seattle. The annual event is student produced and members from the Watershed Report team present their findings and share their personal experiences to a crowd of 150-200. Donaldson said people who attend include local decision makers such as city council members, school board members, King County officials, local chambers of commerce, rotary clubs and other civic organizations. Other attendees for the screening event include local green business leaders and emerging green business networks, as well as educators and school green teams.
“Some of them come every year,” Donaldson said.
SPREADING THE WORD
After this screening, he said, comes what they call the community rollout, which includes students addressing their local city councils, school districts, chambers of commerce and rotary clubs — or the “Big Four.” Another aspect of the Watershed Report is making them useful to schools’ curriculum so the videos are about six to nine minutes. Benzaoui said he thinks it is very important for young people to learn about sustainability early — especially as he predicts a lot of sustainabilityrelated jobs will be created in the next 10-15 years. Benzaoui isn’t sure if he will pursue a career in the field, but said he is considering studying business in college. He said will probably combine the green business mentality he has learned from his Watershed Report experience with whatever he pursues in the future. “In the long term, it’ll save you money,” he said.

You may be unaware of it, but September is Life Insurance Awareness Month. And when you consider the lifetime of benefits you and your family may receive from life insurance, you might agree that a month isn’t too long to spend on this important part of your overall financial picture. The cost — financial,
emotional and psychological — of not having adequate life insurance certainly outweighs the expense of carrying the proper coverage. You’ll hear about many things that are designed to “last a lifetime,” but in the case of life insurance, that expression is appropriate. Consider the various times in which you should look at the need for life insurance: • When you’re married —
Many married couples assume they won’t need life insurance until they have children. But if you or your spouse died, would the surviving spouse’s income be sufficient to pay off the mortgage, or even the rent? How about credit card balances, car loans or student loans? • When you’re retired — Your need for life insurance doesn’t retire when you do. For

grandchildren, life insurance may be an ideal vehicle, because the proceeds are typically income tax free and can avoid the time-consuming process of probate.

[ park from page 1]
For the past two and a half months, red tables and chairs have sat on the sidewalk near the park as an invitation of sorts to draw people in; people have used them and none of them have been stolen, Larsen said. City staffers want the new park — which is estimated to cost about $8 million for design and construction — to knit Redmond Town Center with historic Redmond and stimulate economic vitality and spark residential growth downtown. Presently, there are 1,500 downtown residents, Larsen said, adding that 5,000 more residents are projected to make downtown their home by 2030. Also in the city’s plans is raising the level of Cleveland Street to the same height of the sidewalk to accommodate more people during larger events that will use street space and to slow traffic on non-event days. Resident Jodie Miller stated her concern about children not knowing where the sidewalk ends and the street begins when cars are present. Larsen said the city plans to feature landscaping, street furniture and changes in color from the sidewalks to the street to remedy any possible problems. They also plan to meet with representatives from Lighthouse for the Blind to define sidewalk edges. “Parents can say, ‘Don’t go past the blue,’” Larsen said as an example. Added Miller: “I’m really impressed that they’re doing this research.” Next on Larsen’s agenda at last week’s chat was the Redmond Central Connector, a 100-foot wide, 3.89-mile linear corridor that extends from the east end of Bear

PUBLIC NOTICES Craig Larsen discussed the Redmond Central Connector last Friday at the Redmond Senior Center. andy nystrom, Redmond Reporter Creek Trail in Redmond Town Center right through the middle of downtown and then north along Willows Road to Northeast 124th Street. By 2025, the plan is to create an award-winning trail/park with a heavy art element, complete with multi-use gathering places, as well as pedestrian and transit connections, including light rail. The connector will be part of a regional trail system, connecting the Bear Creek and Sammamish River trails. “We want this to reflect the past, present and future (of Redmond),” Larsen said. “After a meeting or having dinner with your family, I want this to be the first place you go. A destination place, an interesting gathering place.” Larsen envisions the people walking and cycling on the trail to stop off in downtown Redmond to dine and shop and enjoy events like a Saturday market and more. Since the trail will cross a number of streets, Larsen hopes people travel slower than they would on the Sammamish River Trail. “We hope they experience the space rather than blast through it,” he said.
The first phase will begin construction in October and will include a 1.1-mile trail connecting the east end of the Bear Creek Trail to the Sammamish River Trail. The master plan, design and construction of this phase is estimated to be $5.2 million. The cost estimate for Phase II and III to the north is $4.35 million. • The Redmond Senior Center’s next First Friday Coffee Chat on Oct. 5 will feature Janeen Olson with Redmond Ready, a campaign to encourage personal preparedness among citizens. The chat will be from 10-11 a.m. at 8703 160th Ave. N.E., in the Fireplace Lounge. Registration for First Friday Coffee Chats is not necessary.

Bear Creek School coach Sherrie Brown, Michele’s mom, said her 18-year-old daughter has nice hands at her setter position and that’s why she’s earned 2B Sea-Tac most valuable player honors twice. Makena Schoene, who turns 18 today, feels at home with her Grizzly volleyball family and in the trenches during contests. “There’s a level of intensity that comes when it’s the third match and you’re down to those final points,” said 6-foot-1 outside hitter Schoene, who was a firstteam all-leaguer last season along with Michele. “It really pushes you to the limit and you work together as a team. You’re going after everything, you’re hitting the floor — no matter what.” The two senior cocaptains helped lead the Grizzlies to a third-place tie with Lynden Christian at last Friday’s Sundome Volleyball Festival in Yakima. Overlake, a 1A school, placed 17th in the event, which featured 32 teams from the 1B, 2B and 1A divisions. Sherrie said the Grizzlies (27-3-1 last season) like to begin their campaign at the Yakima preseason tourney and hopefully finish up at the Sundome at the state championships in November. Over the last three years at state, the girls have finished fifth, fourth and eighth, respectively. “I’ve got kids who work hard and they just work to improve every day. I think that’s their motto, what’s driving them,” said Sherrie, whose team went 12-0 in
league the last two years and didn’t lose a set during that time frame. On Wednesday night, the Grizzlies defeated La Conner in three straight sets. Schoene led the way with 20 kills, Michele had 27 assists, Gracie Matthews had 12 digs, Morgan Cadigan had six aces and Catherine Fernandez had five blocks. Michele, whose dad, Greg, coaches her Sudden Impact select volleyball club, feels Bear Creek is on the right track for success this season. “We keep doing the work, because every year we’ve improved and I think there’s no exception for this year,” Michele said. “I think we just keep going and hopefully we’ll be in the last game at state — that’s what we’re striving for.” On that note, Michele and Schoene glance up at the state banners in the Bear Creek gym and point to the place where they’d like to see a volleyball championship banner. It’s their time, they said. The Bear Creek family of players will be together reaching for that title the whole way, Schoene said. “I love coming to practice every day. Sometimes I get home late from games and sometimes I don’t have much time to finish my homework, but I would not trade this little dynamic that we have for anything,” she said. “These girls are my best friends and I just love playing with my best friends. And it’s such a fun game, too.” • At Overlake, coach Scott Christopher’s team made it to state for the first time last season, going twoand-out and finishing 14-8 overall. The Owls went 4-2 at last week’s Yakima tourney

“I definitely like the way this team is. We’re a very young team and there’s a lot of potential on this team,” Christopher said. “I’ve seen great progress from Yakima to now.”

...obituaries Gary L. Compton
Gary L. Compton, of Redmond, died on Sunday, September 9, 2012. He was 71 years old. Born in Sacramento, California, Gary was the son of Joseph Compton and Pearl Runyan. He attended California Polytechnic College in San Luis Obispo, CA and received a BSEE in Electronic Engineering. It was there he met his beloved wife of 47 years, Anne Markhardt. Gary served his country honorably as a Lieutenant with the United States Navy and built a career as an Electronic Sales Engineer for Hewlett Packard and Agilent Technologies until his retirement in 1999. Gary was a member of the Faith Lutheran Church in Redmond and served as Assisting Minister on occasion. He was a man of strong faith and had a generous spirit, helping others at every turn.

Additionally, Gary was a Master Mason and member of the Kirkland Masonic Lodge and a proud member of the Nile Shrine Temple.
Gary was a devoted family man and enjoyed spending time with his wife, kids and especially his grandkids. He always had a Hot Wheel car for each of his grandkids every time they visited. Gary routinely put the needs of others in front of his own and touched the lives of all who met him and knew him.

Frank Vincent LaSalata
Our beloved father, friend and King County District Court Judge, Frank V. LaSalata, passed away on September 1, 2012 at the age of 60, due to complications of his battle with cancer. Frank was born on March 7, 1952 in Brooklyn, NY as the only child of Michael and Sadie LaSalata. He lived on Long Island, NY until he moved to Washington in 1975. He married Mary Carnahan (later divorced) and they had 3 adored sons, Michael, Anthony and David. Frank graduated from Washington State University with a Bachelor of Science and a Masters in Geology. After living in Centralia and working at WIDCo for several years, he pursued his dream of becoming a lawyer and in 1992 graduated from the University of Puget Sound Law School (now Seattle University). He practiced law for several years in Bellevue and then in Friday Harbor before attaining his goal of twice being elected as a King County District Court judge, where he presided until his death. Frank is survived by his sons, Michael (Kari), Tony (Lisa) and David (Arielle), and his wonderful grandchildren who brought him so much joy, Mika, Sydnie, Madison (Belle), Kaleb, Owen, Paige, Olivia and Vincent. He is preceded in death by his parents. A Celebration of Life will be held at the Clise Mansion at Redmond’s Marymoor Park on Saturday, September 22 at 12:00 p.m. Please visit the online guestbook at www.cedarlawnswashington.com. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Frank V. LaSalata Education Fund for his grandchildren’s education. 674701

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves
NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.

At the head of Redmond’s MOD store is general manager Todd Griffiths, who came to the company from a background in fine dining and made the switch to casual dining because he wanted something more fast paced. “I love this so much better,” he said. “I like the casualness.” Griffiths said he also enjoys the people he works with, saying he has “a great team.” MOD employee and recent RHS graduate Dorian Juge agreed. “We are crazy awesome,” he said.

The restaurant, which was started in Seattle by Bellevue residents Scott and Ally Svenson, specializes in individual artisan-style pizzas that are prepared and cooked in 800-degree display ovens within two to three minutes. All pizzas cost $6.88 regardless the number of toppings. Ally said in forming MOD in 2007 and 2008, they asked themselves how little they could charge their customers and still be a viable business — an unusual concept in a time when restaurants charge extra for everything from sauces to to-go boxes.
