Townhomes mark new era in RHA housing BY DEAN A. RADFORD dradford@rentonreporter.com

The eight-unit Glennwood Townhomes on Glennwood Avenue Northeast demonstrate how new housing will help stimulate the redevelopment of the Sunset area in the Highlands. dean a. radford, Renton Reporter

The City of Renton and the Renton Housing Authority took a key step toward building new homes for low-income families and individuals and at the same time redeveloping the Sunset neighborhood. The ribbon was cut Wednesday on the Glennwood Townhomes, eight new homes with four bedrooms that will serve the Renton Housing Authority’s largest families. The first family has already moved in and full occupancy is expected by the end of October. “The key to the Glennwood Townhomes is that it [ more glennwood page 8]

Renton honors four Turning adversity to hope outstanding citizens By TRACEY COMPTON tcompton@rentonreporter.com

Norma McQuiller and her husband Kevin count the volunteer work that they do as just part of their normal routine, but the City of Renton sees it differently. The two have been honored as the 2012 Citizens of the Year along with Bernadene (Bernie) Dochnahl and Bob Bliesner as Outstanding Citizens. The City of Renton, Renton Chamber of Commerce and Rotary Club of Renton annually recognize Renton citizens for “their unwavering dedication and far-reaching contributions to the Renton community.” “I think the first thing that

came to my mind is that there are so many people more deserving than we are,” said Norma McQuiller in response to the award. She has been on staff with the city as the neighborhood program coordinator for almost 12 years and counts all her neighborhood contacts as friends. Kevin McQuiller came to work for the city’s water department three years ago but began mentoring with Communities in Schools of Renton well before that time. “Trust me, I get back way more than I give in everything I do, “ said Norma McQuiller. She still remembers volunteering with the ARISE homeless [ more volunteers page 9 ]

The Hafner family lost their home to the recession, sending them down the path to helping the children of Nicaragua

Sometimes a loss is a win. In Joe Hafner’s case, just two years ago his family lost almost everything. But instead of letting it knock them down, they treated it like an opportunity. It took them down a winding road that led them to found Go For Hope International, a nonprofit charity that brings education to needy children in Central America.

Complaint filed over library email By DEAN A. RADFORD

More at rentonreporter.com

dradford@rentonreporter.com

A member of the Renton Advocacy Coalition has filed a grievance against Renton City Attorney Larry Warren for what she describes as a mocking tone about citizen activists. Beth Asher of Renton filed the grievance against Warren with the Office of Disciplinary Counsel of the Washington State Bar Association. She filed the grievance and wrote a letter to the editor after obtaining an exchange of emails Tuesday, Sept. 18, between Warren and Rich Zwicker, the president of the City Council, in which Zwicker asked that a city attorney attend Committee of the Whole meetings. Complaints filed against attorneys are investigated in a confidential process, said Debra Carnes, a spokeswoman for the Washington State Bar Association. Because of that, she couldn’t confirm a grievance was filed. The Bar attorneys and others will investigate the grievance, which takes about 60 days. Depending on what that “intake process” finds, the Bar could launch a formal investigation. Zwicker said Monday he had assumed that a city attorney “was available at most, if not all” council Committee of the Whole meetings. “When I learned that was not the case on Sept. 17, I thought it would be useful to make a standing request for the remainder of my term as council president,” he said. Zwicker said “having a city attorney attend meetings would be

http://tinyurl.com/8nlq3xk

useful if any council member had a legal question regarding a topic being covered in COW.” An attorney from the City Attorney’s Office, typically Warren, attends all regular meetings of the City Council after Committee of the Whole meetings. Warren responded later Tuesday morning to Zwicker’s request: “With apologies to Alfred Lord Tennyson: Citizen activists to the left of them Citizen activists to the right of them Down into the Valley of COW go the four.” “We will be at future COW meetings.” In her grievance, Asher wrote: “While I have to admit the literary reference is funny, the satirical tone is not. This is a prime example of how citizens are mocked and regarded as nuisances. Our input is not wanted or respected. We are not nuisances, we ARE the government. We pay Larry Warren’s retainer and Rich Zwicker’s salary!” In an interview Warren said he was “astounded that anyone could take offense at what I stated. In order to be offended, you have to assume that citizen activist is a pejorative term. I certainly don’t.” Warren said he himself has been a citizen activist and so have nearly all the City Council members and Mayor Denis Law. The reference to “four” in the email is to himself and to the three

assistant city attorneys who could attend the Committee of the Whole meetings. Zwicker said he’s not speaking for the entire council, but personally he’s “very disappointed” with the email Warren sent to the council and the city attorney’s staff. “While I assume he was making an attempt at humor, I was not amused,” he said, and he said he made his displeasure known to the city administration Monday morning. “In my opinion this is a personnel matter and one that is to be handled by the administration and I leave it in their hands,” he said. Warren and Zwicker said they hadn’t had a chance to speak with each other Monday morning. But when they do, Zwicker said he plans to “express my disappointment to him directly.” Zwicker said he “absolutely” believes that “citizen input is important, not just at council meetings, but through phone calls, email and personal contact. My record shows that I constantly strive for opportunities to make sure that citizens have access to council and the city.” He pointed out he made it clear to the city administration that the public be part of the design process for the Cedar River library, saying he’s “proud to have taken a leadership role in the dynamic process we created to allow just that.” Warren said Monday he was trying to be “light-hearted” in responding to Zwicker. Warren said he goes out of his way to not be insulting about members of the public and will often talk with the public about being

more effective with the council. Warren said he was surprised by Zwicker’s request, although it was a reasonable one. A member of the City Attorney’s Office typical attends fewer than 10 percent of all City Council committee meetings, Warren said. A number of those meetings related directly to the City Attorney’s Office, he said; typically, a city attorney will attend about 25 percent of Committee of the Whole meetings. In an interview, Asher said her “strong reaction to the email was occasioned a lot by surprise.” She indicated she thought the city was “making a genuine effort to work with residents and was taking our offer of help seriously.” The coalition has offered its own experts to the City Council to help council members understand the issues surrounding the development of new libraries. “The fact that Larry Warren copied all the council and another lawyer as if to let them in on the joke – the joke being us – upset me,” she said. “Having seen the uphill struggle of residents to be heard on one issue, you can imagine how this email appeared,” she said. “We genuinely wanted to work with the city and bring our talents and time to them, but this email makes it look like we’re regarded as a humorous nuisance.” The Renton Advocacy Coalition was formed following the Aug. 7 election in which voters opted to refurbish the Cedar River library, rather than build a new one at the Piazza. The coalition intends to bring public concerns to the attention of City Hall.

Navy orders 11 more P-8As The U.S. Navy has awarded Boeing a $1.9 billion contract for 11 additional P-8A Poseidon anti-submarine aircraft built in Renton. The Navy now has 24 of the Poseidons on order, which will bolster anti-submarine, anti-surface warfare and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities, according to a Boeing press release This third low-rate initial production award follows two last year that totaled 13 aircraft. Boeing has delivered three of the production P-8As, which are based on the company’s Next-Generation 737-800 commercial airplane, and the Navy plans to purchase 117 to replace its P-3 fleet. The Poseidon team in Renton uses a first-in-industry, in-line production process that draws on Boeing’s Next-Generation 737 production system.

Renee Padgett of Renton, a Washington state trooper who started a program to bring missing kids home, is fighting a rare form of cancer. In May she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, which is a cancer of plasma cells, a type of white-blood cell in bone marrow. On Saturday friends and family will hold a spaghetti feed, auction and raffle at The Pickled Onion in the Renton Highlands to help raise money to pay for her medical care, which could include stem-cell transplants. Her state insurance is not covering all of her medical expenses, Padgett said. A single mother, Padgett has two children, Gedeon, 10, and Olivia, 7. Padgett has already undergone aggressive chemotherapy; she got some bad news this week. The chemotherapy had only reduced the presence of the cancer in her bone marrow from 90 to 95 percent to about 80 percent. Her chemotherapy and radiation treatments will continue at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, then the stemcell transplants. In intense pain, Padgett went to the emergency room on May 17, where doctors discovered a tumor on her spine that had caused four discs to collapse on top of each other, “like an earthquake,” she explained. She had a procedure called vertebroplasty, in which a “cement” was injected into the four vertebrae, which raised them into place. Nearly all of the pain was gone. “It was like a miracle for me, for sure,” she said. Without the procedure, she would not have been able to walk. Her insurance didn’t pay for this procedure, she said.

Fundraiser for trooper Washington state Trooper Renee Padgett of Renton needs help paying for her medical bills to fight a rare form of cancer. In May she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, which is a cancer of plasma cells, a type of white-blood cell in bone marrow. On Saturday friends and family will hold a spaghetti feed, auction and raffle at The Pickled Onion in the Renton Highlands to help raise money to pay for her medical costs. The fundraiser starts at 5 p.m. at The Pickled Onion, 1314 Union Ave. N.E., No. 6, Renton. The cost is $20. To order tickets email itsdanette@ymail.com or they are available at the door.

Washington state Trooper Renee Padgett was diagnosed in May with a rare form of cancer. Submitted Padgett has undergone treatment for an iliac mass behind her right hip. Her kidneys are only working at 30 to 40 percent capacity. Padgett is receiving widespread support from the state patrol and police and fire departments throughout the region. For 15 years Padgett has worked closely with local agencies in her role as the state patrol’s wrecking-yard inspector in King County. She’s part of patrol’s Commercial Vehicle Division. She’s been a state trooper for 22 years. In 2005, sitting in traffic on the way to a doctor’s appointment for one of her children, she was struck by a fear: What happens if one of my children goes missing?

Realizing she had the resources to do something, she began work on an innovative new program called Homeward Bound, designed to help locate and bring home some of the approximately 23,000 children who are reported missing in the state each year. Her vision was to put large photographic images of missing children on the side of commercial semitrailers that travel interstate freeways. She is partnering with Gordon Trucking on the award-winning project, and even now is preparing more posters of missing children to go on the trucks. So far, the program has returned six children to their families.

The ITEC (Industry Technician Education Coalition) Automotive training program at Renton Technical College in Renton has received accreditation by NATEF and the National Institute for Automotive Certification (ASE). Renton Technical College’s automotive program achieved Master Accreditation by being accredited in all eight NATEF training areas: • Engine Repair • Automatic Transmission/Transaxle • Manual Drive Train and Axles • Suspension and Steering • Brakes • Electrical/Electronic Systems • Heating and Air Conditioning • Engine Performance The school’s automotive training program underwent rigorous evaluation by the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF). Nationally accepted standards of excellence in areas such as instruction, facilities, and equipment were used. “This is great news for automotive-minded young people and their parents,” said Donald Seyfer, NATEF Chair. “Because this program increases cooperation between local education and industry leaders, it gives added assurance that Renton Technical College graduates will be employable entry-level technicians. As a result of the quality education provided by Renton Technical College, the motoring public will benefit since better repair technicians will join the work force.”

County to explain river-debris management Residents are invited to learn more about King County’s procedures for managing naturally occurring wood in rivers as part of its river and floodplain management program at an Oct. 9 meeting on Mercer Island. This includes the Cedar River, where woody debris has drawn the attention of river activists. The meeting is set for 6 – 7:30 p.m. in Room 104 of the Mercer Island Community Center, 8236 S.E. 24th St., Mercer Island. King County is updating its guidelines for managing natural wood in rivers. Originally written in 2008, the guidelines define how the King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks and the King

County Sheriff ’s Office coordinate and respond to reports of fallen trees that lodge in rivers and can pose a safety risk to people or public infrastructure. Topics covered during the Oct. 9 meeting include: • Procedures for managing naturally occurring wood in King County rivers, including safety considerations; • How the county builds projects to reduce flood risk and improve habitat for fish and wildlife; and • How the county plans for and responds to river-

related safety issues as part of that work. A copy of the proposed procedures and other related materials can be found at: http://www.kingcounty.gov/ environment/watersheds/ general-information/largewood/natural.aspx Interested citizens are encouraged to attend the meeting and ask questions

or make comments. Written comments and ideas are being accepted through Oct. 22nd by contacting Nancy Faegenburg at nancy. faegenburg@kingcounty. gov or via U.S. mail: Nancy Faegenburg, King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks, 201 S. Jackson ST., #600, Seattle, WA 98104.

● QUOTE OF NOTE:

Renton

Letters to editor Cedar library is about the heart of the city

I am proud of those who have fought for the library. But take careful note, they are still in battle uniform, even after the trouncing defeat in an overwhelming pro-Cedar River Library vote by Renton voters v. Renton City Council’s plans for the library at the Piazza. And for good reason. They know too well that the council was not unaware of the public’s preference from the start, but that the council had planned even then to do business as usual, by the bull-dozer of the office and not the will of the people. Even with the public victory secured, the Apocalyptical 4 Headsmans of the council are still singing (as always) their same old song, Doing It Our Way, or the Highway, while those who fought the good fight representing the public’s interest are yet held at arm’s length by that obstinate foursome. The Cedar River library is, in itself, a sweet and important statement from an era of true visionary spirit. The library is more than a building. It compares to the statue of the boy, with a baseball mitt reading a book, which sits just before the concourse over the river leading to the library’s entrance. That sculpture is one of the most cherished in the entire Northwest . . . that is the U.S. and not only the Northwest Puget Sound. Now have you taken a look at those big, square, steel monstrosities that KCLS approved that “litter” the front of the new Burien downtown library? The most remarkable thing about them is the sign posted in front of them - DO NOT TOUCH THE SCULPTURES. This is the kind of hideous, insidious and insane spirit that is trying to leave its mark on Renton. It is all far more than about buildings and art. It is about the very heart of the city.

“Ultimately we came to the decision that we were given an opportunity because we were no longer bound to a place.“ Joe Hafner, founder, Go For Hope International

SPEEA contract should be rejected

I have been retired from The Boeing Company since 1990, 22 years ago. The contract now being offered to the company’s Professional Engineering and Technical employees falls far short of the Boeing medical coverage I had back then. This contract has slipped in a clause that allows the company to cancel retiree medical insurance for employees who are retired prior to the contract being implemented. The benefit could end even if they are already enrolled in the early retiree medical plan. While Boeing hasn’t said it planned to cancel medical benefits for current retirees, they also refuse to put in writing that they won’t cancel medical coverage.

Edwin Gillispie retired Boeing engineer Renton

Residents want their opinions represented by people they trust Regarding the city’s “Guiding Principles” and the ILA for the new libraries (“City begins library outreach, Renton Reporter, Sept. 21, 2012), one of the main differences is the new wording of the second principle stating that libraries will be located over the Cedar River and on Sunset Boulevard in the Highlands. These principles don’t actually function as an addendum to the ILA. Clause 23 in the ILA doesn’t permit amendment in this way. “Any modifications to this agreement shall be in writing and signed by both Parties.” The guiding principles are only signed by council president Rich Zwicker. I’m thinking that they’re intended to reassure residents that the City fully intends to go ahead with a renovated and updated Cedar River Library. The “Principles” seem more like a statement of purpose from the city. I appreciate their including the third principle – that both facilities will be designed and constructed within the budget approved and allocated for each building. Unfortunately, KCLS is still the lead agency. As we outlined in our presentation, they have a history of cost overruns on their libraries of 35 percent on average. Vashon, Mercer Island, White Center and Tukwila, as well as Newcastle, have all had a hard time getting them to accept community input. Mayor Law, along with the city administrator, has assured library supporters that the Renton Library Advisory Board (RLAB) truly represents us, but you have to wonder.

OPINION

about the renovation of the Cedar River Library why weren’t they at the Monday the 17th council sessions or the Tuesday library update listening and interacting with residents? How well did they ever represent the 76 percent of voters who wanted the Cedar River Library renovated? How much citizen input and what type did they present to KCLS while representing us before the library vote? There are two places in the ILA that give Cedar River Library supporters a place to participate. The guiding principles don’t change that. Cedar River supporters can either be appointed to the Renton Library Advisory Board, which has two seats on the design team, or be used as consultants. If members with appropriate expertise are appointed to the RLAB they can rotate through as needed to give advice to council and provide a liaison for residents. Then there are sections 4 b. and 5 a. ii. in the ILA. There the city can have consultants on the design team that carry over into the construction phase. The term “consultants” is not a legally defined term in the agreement, so the city can appoint any consultants they deem necessary. The city’s position is that they have Peter Renner and some engineers. Fine – but the issue is that residents don’t feel the city did well negotiating against KCLS, continues to do poorly, could use support, and refuses to accept it. The residents want to be represented, not by the city staff and council, who marginalized their initial input and who they mistrust, but by other residents that they trust.

The 19-year-old was playing World of Warcraft on the couple’s laptop when the 19-year-old girlfriend asked to use the laptop for schoolwork. He refused because he was “raiding” in the game. She said schoolwork is more important than a game and tried to grab the laptop. The boyfriend then grabbed her arm and flung her across the room. He went over to where she was lying on the ground, dragged her out of the room and closed the door. Police arrested him for domestic assault.

Economy, and Environment Committee. “This rate structure will remain in place for at least two years, providing for certainty and predictability.” While there will be an increase in solid-waste fees, fees for separated yard and clean wood waste will actually be lowered from $13.25 to $12 per entry for passenger cars and $82.50 per ton to $75 per ton for larger vehicles. Separation of these materials is not mandatory – but the lower fees at Shoreline, Bow Lake, and Enumclaw transfer stations and the Cedar Falls drop box are intended to provide an incentive for delivery of these materials – when separated from other garbage – so they can be recycled or composted – instead of going into the landfill. Thirty-seven cities, including Renton, solid-waste haulers and the county make up the regional solid-waste system that receives more than 800,000 tons of waste annually. The new rates were developed in consultation with the Solid Waste Advisory Committee, and the Metropolitan Solid Waste Management Advisory Committee, an advisory group of participating cities.

Ann Alice Peternel Bisiack, 94, of Bainbridge Island, Washington and formerly of Renton,Washington passed away on September 18, 2012. She was born on July 24, 1918, on the Iron Range of Gilbert, Minnesota, in a mining community of Slovenian immigrants to John and Annie Peternel. At the age of 5 she headed west with her family including 2 younger sister, Helen and Evie, to Washington and finally settled in Renton. Her father’s property and their home is now the site of Renton City Hall. Ann graduated salutatorian from Renton High School in 1936 and went onto Secretarial School in Seattle. She married Louie Bisiack after WWII on May 4, 1946. They had been long time family friends and a courtship began dancing at Lake Wilderness Resort. Ann enjoyed accompanying Louie on fishing trips, dancing, and their activities with friends “The Dizzy Dozen”. After the birth of their daughter, Luanne, they settled in Renton building a house with the help of Grandpa John. Ann re-entered the work force employed for 30 years at PACCAR where she rose thru the ranks to become executive secretary for two company presidents. After retirement they moved to Bainbridge Island to live next to their only daughter and her family. For the past 10 years Ann struggled with macular degeneration and lived at the Madison Avenue Retirement Center. In May increasing dementia moved her to Messenger House. A stroke on September 9, added to her trials. A Funeral Mass was celebrated at St Cecilia’s Catholic Church, Bainbridge Island on September 21 and Ann is interred with Louie at Greenwood Memorial Cemetery in Renton. Ann lived a healthy and happy 94 years and we celebrate her commitment to family, friends, her faith and work. She was a faithful member at both St Anthony’s in Renton and St Cecilia’s Churches. She loved her family and took special pride in her two grandsons and 5 great-grandchildren. We are blessed to have shared so many years with her.

from $109 to $120.17 per ton. The rate increase is primarily driven by needed capital investments in transfer stations, associated debt payments and proposed restorations or expansions of a limited number of recycling services and programs, according to a King County press release. The new rate also includes an increase for those who arrive at transfer stations with unsecured loads. King County will now set this fee at $25. “This rate increase prevents further cuts to services and restores funding for some services important to residents in King County while keeping the rate as low as possible. The new fees also help us ensure the necessary reserves for future landfill maintenance and a rebuilt transfer system,” said Joe McDermott, who chairs the County Council’s Budget and Fiscal Management Committee. “Changes to the solid waste fee structure promote recycling and composting while providing for the financial sustainability of King County’s regional solid waste system,” said Larry Phillips, chair of the council’s Transportation,

Four people, including a 16-year-old girl, were charged Monday with first-degree murder in the shooting death of a Skyway man Sept. 7. Herman Tucker, 47, was shot and killed at the SeaTac Motel 6 in the 20600 block of Military Road South at about 3 a.m., according to the King County Sheriff ’s Office. Evidence is partly drawn from text messages that investigators and prosecutors indicated the four were planning to rob Tucker. Charged are Kavahn Elijah Matthews-Smith, 19, Qiantre Jamiel Taylor, 19, of Skyway, Earnetra Shalia Turner, 16, of Seattle and Rodney Lee Willis, 19, of Seattle. Turner, who was arrested on Sept. 19, was charged as an adult. They also were charged with first-degree robbery and second-degree robbery when armed with a firearm. Matthews-Smith, whose residence wasn’t indicated in court documents, turned himself in Monday night, the last of the four to be taken into custody.

Taylor and Willis are being held on $2 million bail; Matthews-Smith and Turner are being held on $1 million bail each. The four will be arraigned at 9 a.m. Oct. 8 at the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent. Witnesses indicated to detectives that they saw Tucker enter a room at the Motel 6 and then heard an argument and a gunshot, according to charging documents. Tucker stumbled from the room; four people were seen fleeing the room. Tucker collapsed on the balcony; he had a gunshot wound to his chest and one to his left hand from either a .32 or .38 caliber handgun. His death was ruled a homicide. When he died, Tucker had three large, apparently gold rings on his hand, according to charging documents. There were seven $100 bills in his wallet and $234 in cash was found in the pants on a dresser. A gold necklace Tucker was reported wearing earlier in the evening wasn’t found. Part of the investigation looked at an exchange of numerous text messages between Tucker and Turner starting at about 8:45 p.m.

on Sept. 6. They wrote about meeting later that night. The last text message was sent at 11:55 p.m., when Turner gave Tucker an address where she was staying. Two minutes later, Turner texted her brother and co-defendant, Rodney Lee Willis. The continuing exchange was consistent with arranging to rob Tucker, according to charging documents. At 1:47 a.m., Turner texted her brother the address for the Motel 6. Willis texted back, “Yeah we comin.” A minute later Turner texts again, “He ain’t here.” At 2:14 a.m., text messages between Tucker and Turner, who is now using a Samsung cell phone which only can be used for text messages under its service plan. In the texts Tucker initially sounds reluctant to meet. But at 2:58 a.m. Tucker texts that he’s outside. The first 911 call was made at 3:02 a.m. Detectives used phone records to also help them identify the other two defendants in the case, according to court documents. According to the documents, as they drove away from the Motel 6 Taylor and Matthews were yelling at Willis, “Why did you shoot him? Why did you shoot him?” Willis told them to shut up. According to court documents, Willis and Taylor on Sept. 6 talked with associates about a “skin down” they planned for later that night. A “skin down” is a robbery.

Go For Hope strives to make most efficient use of donors’ dollars [ charity from page 1] borhood where he grew up, and his business was doing well. Then the economy’s downturn served up a gut punch. His business faltered and eventually collapsed. They lost a rental property they owned. They lost their home. The long slow process gave the two plenty of time to ponder about what was next. “Ultimately we came to the decision that we were given an opportunity because we were no longer bound to a place,” Hafner said. “If we didn’t pick up and go on an adventure now, when would we do it?” The idea bloomed into full-blown plans soon enough. The trip would be nine months, so they would return in time for the kids’ swim season and the couple’s triathlon season. School wouldn’t be much

of a challenge because they were already homeschooling their children. They settled on Nicaragua because of its relative safety for kids, despite the fact that it’s the second-poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. They bought round-trip tickets, signifying their mindset going in. They weren’t running away. “We wanted to go on an adventure,” Hafner said. “And we wanted to live as neighbors, not as tourists.” So on Aug. 12, 2010, they handed over possession of their former home to the bank, the family loaded into the car with its 17 bags and drove directly to SeaTac airport. In some ways the trip was a blank slate. They weren’t on a mission trip, they weren’t part of any organization, and they didn’t have a plan.

“We were open to whatever God was going to lead us into,” Hafner said. “We didn’t go with the intention of volunteering or anything. We just wanted to experience life down there.” Hafner said if they had gone with a mission, it might have colored the entire experience differently. As it was, they were able to see things with less of a bias. And one of the things they saw was people, usually with the best of intentions, doing more harm than good simply because they didn’t understand Nicaragua. Take the instance of volunteers coming to Nicaragua to build homes or schools.

“You have volunteer laborers who have paid several hundred dollars in airfare, let alone lodging, to come down and essentially take work away from people who need it,” Hafner said. Hafner also mentioned other seemingly good, but inefficient ways of helping in Nicaragua. He said groups will often donate computers without knowing that the cost of the electricity to use them is prohibitive for schools, or build a classroom in an area where there’s not enough funding to run it. And that’s the key difference between Go For Hope and many other relief organiza[ more charity page 15 ]

Donating supplies to classrooms that aren’t secure doesn’t help each day. “Any school that’s not secure, you can’t put anything in it,” Hafner said. “You can’t give them a whiteboard, you can’t give them desks, because they will just get stolen.” By finding local people who are efficient, who want to work, and who know Nicaraguan construction, Go For Hope can build classrooms much cheaper than most humanitarian groups. “We find the most effective way to take a

donor’s money and have a community benefit,” he said. “That’s why we exist. I want their money to go as far as it possibly can.” Go For Hope chartered at the end of 2011.

zations is Go For Hope’s focus on a network of local, community-driven groups. “If we can provide them with resources and a network of other local organizations we can do far more than if we were to come down and build a school, or send pencils, or whatever,” Hafner said. One of Go For Hope’s programs is a Lighthouse Scholarship, which provides some physical needs children’s schoolwork.

Most importantly, it sets the child up with a Nicaraguan mentor who can encourage him or her and give guidance. Go For Hope also works to support community schools and build classrooms. Hafner said having secure classrooms is essential because if the rooms aren’t secure, they’re robbed at night. Many of the current classrooms are simple structures made of wood with tin roofs. Students have to carry school supplies, and even chairs, to and from school

The City of Renton last Friday released the comments made at a public open house Sept. 18 on the Cedar River library and the Highlands library. Thirty-five people signed in at City Hall for the open house. The city will use this information to decide how best to explain the issues to the public at regular open meetings. The city is posting library information at its website, rentonwa.gov.

DESIGN Cedar River Library • Keep the current square footage, which is 22,500 sq. ft. • Leave the current entrance where it is!!! • Leave shell of building as is!! • Indirect lighting and extra UV protection is better for books than glass box. Don’t shrink it, because books aren’t extinct. • Keep lots of light, views from inside library of river below, keep the warmth of wood. Add native design. • Keep parking on both sides • Bigger outside area on bridge. Maybe with seating/picnic area in part of it. • I love walking over the only safe bridge to watch the river with kids. • Keep the tree on the playground side (the one with bigger twisted bottom trunk and pink flowers) • Large meeting room! • Don’t move entrance • Don’t need industrial floor load of 150 (as referred to in the Schematic design project report) • Is M Hull really the best choice for a remodel? Can we interview again? Why not? This is a new location. • It is very important that the entrance be kept at the walking bridge. It would not be acceptable to move the entrance to the parking lot. We also must retain the large meeting rooms, it is one of the reasons many voters chose to keep the library over the river. We want large spaces. Finally the construction should be done so that the noise level inside is not “Christmas at the Mall”! We

want a low noise library. • Friends of the library needs visible book shelves for ongoing book sales at both Highlands and Cedar River. Also needed is storage area for donated books. Please remember us in the design process. • П Roof line (or false front) – not a tent shape (upside-down V) • Also add another bike rack or 2 because it gets crowded. Make sure the children’s area is fun, warm, open and large enough for story hour and other programs. • Definitely need large area for Public Information—booklets, brochures, bus schedules, community news. • Why not spend the art budget on a very cool railing that will compliment the entry on the bridge? For instance one with salmon cutouts. • Keep entrance in current location! • Keep the current size @ 22,500 • Keep orientation of reading spaces to river and Liberty Park. • Historical display including 1990 flood • Cedar River Wi-Fi can be picked up in surrounding park. An unintended asset. Keep. • Do not move library entrance over the river. • Keep all the usable space; don’t get rid of meeting space. The library is a community gathering space and needs all 22,000 sq ft. usable. • Benefit of Cedar River Library is more usable program space – shrinking by diddling with design is not acceptable • I realize KCLS likes MillerHull but we’re doing a renovation of an iconic structure unique in the U.S. and I think KCLS needs to take new submissions for architects who are expert in renovations. • City: Negotiate from strength with KCLS • Do not give up library space • Do not reduce footprint for budget • (Reduce special finishes first) Keep primary entry from south over river (Not saying exact vestibule— but make something of what the Renton public cares about.) • We, the 76%, want a say in the design of our updated library-----we do not want the doorway changed.

Do baby teeth really matter?

YES – they matter a lot! Decayed or decaying baby teeth can potentially represent active infection in the mouth. Anytime there is infection in the body or mouth, it requires immediate attention by a physician or dentist, respectively. Long term, if baby teeth are left to rot, fall out, or get extracted, there is greater potential for permanent teeth to grow in and shift requiring future orthodontic care.

• —wheelchair users do not want it moved either—talk to them yourselves please! DESIGN Highlands Design • Reduce Glass to 50% too much glare. This limits use of personal computer— can’t see screen with too much light. Glass make building too noisy because it does not absorb sound – KCLS makes glary noisy buildings and ugly shed look. • Make women’s bathrooms bigger. • Make sure recycling bins are visible and convenient • Remodel current Highlands Library and buy more land. This area has superior traffic flow. This area is closer to McKnight—current library is used highly by McKnight students. • Imagine traffic in the future when ALL of the Highlands areas are re-developed. • You can’t move State Hwy 900 so be smart now with library location. • Two thirds of Renton or citizens live in Highlands and beyond and will use the Highlands Library if the traffic flow is comfortable. • Keep the Highlands Library where it is currently. Make it bigger and buy more land. Don’t fool with traffic on Sunset Blvd. • Protect Sunset and 10th and the library corner from high speed vehicle accidents. • Design needs to respond to Phase I design of Development--not Phase II. • Come back to us with accurate information—not drawings that are out of date and information that is out of date. • We’d like an actual presentation for the Highlands • Highlands Library location on 900 is a bottleneck of the highest nature for traffic. Get more land for this library so traffic can flow around the total building. Imagine when KCLS trucks come to unload and then fire and aid arrive. This location does NOT work for citizens of Highlands period! COMMUNICATION • Where will our input go and how will it be used • How do we build ‘trust’ with our KCLS partner? (Have one meeting

• Citizens need decision making input because it’s our money we already pay double 5.2 mil tax and 1.8 mil dev svc and residents are well aware of this. • KCLS recommendations to be questioned at every step. We want a library that meets our needs— not theirs. KCLS annexation was approved by only a 53 vote margin. Not a mandate to KCLS. Listen to the people of Renton. • Where is this communication going? After the deceit of the campaign—we need to see reports and success in City representing us with KCLS. • 76% citizens need balanced representation on LAB….4 out of 5 current LAB members favor Piazza and contributed to Piazza campaign. Do these folks have the similar expertise of the citizens offering aid on 9/17 City Council meeting. The citizens need to be on the Design Team. PERMITS • Who pays for the feasibility study done for the Cedar River Library in advance of election? • Why the rush? Construction cost escalation should not be the primary driver. • It is impossible to even get to write on these boards • I can’t find the board I need • I am left handed • Please cancel the traffic changes scheduled in the Highlands by the new library location. • You need a better traffic flow NOT a reduced flow. • The air quality is poor with all the 5 lights through Sunset Blvd from 405 to 12th St. • Can you do another EIS with all these changes or do I just call EPA and ask for it? • Exempt the project from the code about remodels that go over 50% of building value needing to meet all new current codes (we need flexibility) (it’s just an ordinance it can be changed) FINANCE • A clause in the ILA would allow KCLS to contribute funds to the bond money—After all we are paying 5 million in taxes to them—it’s a no brainer • How can we make sure KCLS design/in a cost effective/responsible manner rather than having bills submitted to KCLS paid, then come to City—why not have joint submission • Big 5 acquisition and design cost—Reimburse to Cedar River Library • $ should go toward library remodel not tear down/reduce

features • Why rush the design • Who is watching the bills/costs? How do we monitor • Think KCLS should work w/ volunteers who want to help in/suggest with design and accountability (oversight) • Keep $ in usable space— meeting room etc. – space workable for Renton residents LIBERTY PARK • Keep the positives that are there including river walk, sports areas, skate park (in front of library entrance) • Keep kids playground close to library • Concern about cameras • Keep mature cherry trees • Make it safer by Skate Park • Ivy on trees/off • Swings for older children at playground • Tri-Parks Plan needs to be redone--much is outdated and not applicable and calls for removal or relocation of existing expensive infrastructure Comments via email • Keeping citizens broken into small groups at scribble boards restricts consensus and all cannot hear/understand the whole scope of issues. • 6 residents were speaking to me at once and specifically asked for the seminar format with members of the KCLS Board of Directors, but not Mr. Ptacek. They felt that would be counter-productive because he would speak for the board. I personally don’t mind watching Mr. Ptacek interact with his board and the public in an open public forum. I find it very telling. • Why isn’t the 76% going to be allowed to be on the RLAB? This gets asked over and over and over and is really a sore point with many residents. They know the Mayor appoints members to it and want to know why he can’t add 3-5 members that represent the majority of residents. • Basic issue is trust. You as city staff may be working in good faith, but residents question whether KCLS is. They see the continued denial of new faces on the RLAB as the mayor’s way of keeping them out of the process which doesn’t make them trust him either. They wanted to know what to do about it. I told them the only thing I can see at this point, no matter how distasteful it may be to council, is to keep bringing their concerns to open council, where at least they get aired on Channel 21. And of course to communicate with any and all media they have access to.

The library comments

with KCLS/City/Citizens) • We want to be assured the partnership is three-way not twoway—in other words ResidentsKCLS-City. • There are two points in the ILA (Inter Local Agreement) that would allow citizen experts to participate—see 4b/5b. • Jay please don’t read your cell phone when citizens are talking • This type of input is not what we want, we want City-KCLS-Res to have an open exchange of questions/answers • Poor pen by City-- Poor process. Citizens can’t get ideas to City in the convoluted manner. No more station meetings. • Get information distributed at the table to all and citizens read the information and ask questions. No station. • Better outreach to library patrons representing minority/lower income populations. • Citizens want question and answer format. • Consider weekend daytime format and include KCLS • Have suggestion boxes at the tables and have people fully express themselves • We don’t want to lose reversible lane at Sunset • Post information on website with all documents posted. • Email feedback from website with comments posted on web • Have meetings over the weekends when people can attend— Saturday morning for example. Especially for Cedar River Library. • More frequent---once a month is not enough. • Do not limit to few topics. Get people with design and engineering experience. • Council expected to approve schematic design without expertise. Interested citizens are able to provide the expertise. • KCLS give design • Council not expert enough and validate • Council not have enough expertise to ask basic questions • City personnel are directed by staff and staff accepts what KCLS says and city gets bills second hand and would have to go to arbitration if not agree to them—Communication up front would prevent this • We should not take what KCLS puts forward as gospel—we have to be able to question it at every stage

Two sockeye salmon fight their way up the Cedar River in Renton on their way to spawning in the river’s gravel beds. Renton Reporter file photo

Cedar talks start on Oct. 6 The Cedar River Salmon Journey, a chance to hear volunteer naturalists speak about salmon life cycle, kicks off the weekend of Oct. 6. Every Saturday and Sunday in October, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., the naturalists will staff locations on the Cedar at the Renton Library, the Cedar River Park, Riverview Park, the Cavanaugh Pond Natural Area and the Landsburg Park.

Naturalists will also staff the fish ladder at Chittenden Locks in Seattle, which the salmon, mostly sockeye, use to enter Lake Washington and eventually the Cedar River on their way to spawn. The Cedar River hosts Chinook, sockeye and coho salmon among other fish species. Cedar River Chinook and Puget Sound Steelhead are currently listed as threatened species.

Volunteers to restore Cavanaugh Pond habitat Several dozen King County real estate agents, affiliates and family members will convene at the Cavanaugh Pond Natural Area on Friday, Oct. 12, to help Friends of the Cedar River Watershed with a restoration project. Volunteers from The REALTORS® Environmental Council (TREC) will lead efforts to help control invasive vegetation and establish native forest for the 44-acre natural area east of Renton on the Cedar River.

Cavanaugh Pond, part of King County Parks, supports spawning sockeye salmon in the fall and provides year-round habitat for other fish and wildlife species. Area residents can join REALTORS at the work party 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Volunteers must pre-register at nwrealtor.com or by calling 425-974-1011. All tools and supplies, as well as lunch, will be provided. Participants will be asked to sign the Parks Department’s volunteer waiver form.

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. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension. To m a k e a f i r e w o o d complaint, call 360-9021857. http://agr.wa.gov/inspection/ weightsMeasures/ Firewoodinformation.aspx
