Kent-based company criticizes city’s B&O tax

BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

A local recreational vehicle company has a load of complaints with the city of Kent’s new business and occupation (B&O) tax.

The criticisms include the fast implementation of the tax, how

the funds are spent and the heavy financial impact on businesses.

Brenda Campbell, controller for Poulsbo RV along Military Road on the West Hill, shared her company’s story about the B&O tax on gross receipts the city implemented in January to raise an estimated $3.2 million this year and as much

as $5 million in future years to help repair city streets.

“The nuts and bolts people like us in the accounting office and office managers is different from the City Council sitting down and saying, ‘yes pass this, we need the revenue,’” Campbell said during an interview last week at her office near

Interstate 5. “I understand the roads need to be fixed and the money needs to come from somewhere.

Kent’s credit rating has taken a hit, I get that. But it was all reactive, nothing was proactive.

“It didn’t feel like there was a firm hand in place and that they thought it through completely how is this

going to happen and how are we going to roll it out to people and answer the phone when we have questions. I got a busy signal when I tried calling in.”

Alleged Kent pimp has trial date continued to July 22

BY STEVE HUNTER

shunter@kentreporter.com

The trial date has been continued to July 22 for a man who reportedly made nearly $200,000 as a pimp in Kent and Seattle.

Shacon Fontane Barbee, 34, of Seattle, faces charges of promoting prostitution, leading organized crime, promoting sexual abuse of a minor and other offenses. He had been scheduled for trial in May. Defense attorney Brian Todd requested the continuance in part because, “witness interviews are progressing but not complete,” according to King County Superior Court documents.

Barbee has waived his right to a speedy trial.

Barbee did not sign the latest continuance in his case. Instead of his signature, the court document states, “declines to sign but does not voice an objection.”

Barbee had an initial trial date of September 2011 after his arrest by Kent Police in December 2010. His trial date has been continued numerous times.

Kent celebrates Juneteenth

BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@kentreporter.com

Organizers with the Kent Black Action Commission (KBAC) presented the second annual Juneteenth celebration, “Launching a Legacy”, at the Kent Senior Center last Saturday, The community event featured programs, information, vendors, food, entertainment and speakers commemorating African American freedom and emphasizing education and achievement. “(The event) was a tremendous and excellent success thanks to the spirit

of getting things done. So much love, joy and unity in the place,” said Gwen AllenCarston, KBAC executive director. “We had interest from new folks who ventured out, and because of what they saw and felt, they now want to be full-fledge members of KBAC.” Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States.

The program was supported by many sponsors and volunteers.

“Some of our elected officials stopped by and had some time to share with

the people, thoughts and inspiration to keep growing strong,” Allen-Carston said.

“A few local candidates had a moment to share and meet with folks, face-toface, answering questions and hearing the concerns.

“Thanks to everyone who came through,” AllenCarston said. “Our planning has already begun for next year. We are looking forward to taking it to another level of celebration each year.”

is charged to new developments and pre-existing structures with a major change in use.

“That sends up red flags,” said Campbell, who has worked for three years at Poulsbo RV. “I’m a controller. When I see them do moves like that, they’re taking money from the left pocket to right pocket and it doesn’t affect the bottom line. I wonder who is managing the money and how we know money we pay in B&O tax is going straight to roads.”

Councilwoman Dana Ralph said at a Public Works Committee discussion of the B&O tax on Monday that the council does need to make sure the funds are used for street repairs. So far, only the plans for asphalt paving along Central Avenue have been delayed because of the diversion of funds to Southeast 256th Street.

“We have a massive maintenance issue,” Ralph said about city staff reports that $10 million annually is needed to fix streets. “My concern is the intent of the B&O is for (asphalt) overlay and maintenance. That’s been our conversation all the way through and it’s important not to lose sight of that. As long as I’m here, that’s what we’re trying to do with this.”

Public Works Director Tim LaPorte responded to Ralph that city crews are using the B&O revenue this summer for asphalt overlay projects along West Meeker Street near 64th Avenue South as well as along 64th Avenue South near South 228th Street. The tax brought in $614,000 in the first quarter.

“I was down on Meeker and they paved it and it’s nice,” Campbell said. “We do a lot of business in Kent.

We bank here. Our employees go to Kent Station. We know roads are bad and need to be fixed. I just don’t think (a tax on) gross sales

on a business is the right answer.”

Poulsbo RV has 88 employees at its flagship store that’s operated in Kent since 1999. The company paid $4,000 to the city in the first quarter for the B&O tax, Campbell said. She expects that to increase to $6,000 to $8,000 in future quarters as business picks up the rest of the year.

Kent exempts the first $62,500 of gross receipts each quarter. But Campbell said that’s one sale for the company as prices range from $30,000 trailers to $280,000 motor homes.

“For it to be based on gross instead of net it has nothing to do with income,” she said. “It doesn’t take into account the utility (sewer, water) taxes we pay to Kent. We pay twice as much for utilities at this location than either of our other (four) locations and this facility is similar to our Snohomish County store.”

Poulsbo RV has locations in Auburn, Fife, Everett and Mount Vernon. None of those cities charge a B&O tax. The company also pays the state B&O tax, which cost $33,000 for the Kent location for the first quarter of this year.

“We pay Kent sales tax already,” Campbell said. “We paid $168,000 in the first quarter to the city of Kent through the state Department of Revenue for its 3 percent sales tax.”

Campbell prefers to see the city make more cuts rather than finding more ways to raise revenue.

“They should run the city like a business,” she said.

“There are hard decisions to make. We made them.

We got hit as hard as any city. Nobody was buying anything. We’re just getting back to business. Last year was still hard. This year is great so far.

We had a great winter here and winter is usually a tough period for us.”

and Kent Downtown Partnership, held a workshop on the B&O tax Thursday.

The free workshop was designed to help businesses understand the city’s B&O tax reporting responsibilities as well as ask questions that apply to specific businesses.

“I would have thought those workshops would have come before they put it in place rather than in the middle of it,” Campbell said.

Michelle Wilmot, city spokeswoman, said the council’s adoption of the new tax in October gave city staff little time to organize any workshops prior to the tax’s implementation.

“The ordinance was not adopted until October and the B&O auditors were not on board until March and April,” said Wilmot, who added the recruitment to hire two new auditors started in January.

“They (the council members) snuck this in,” Campbell said. “They went from passing it in October to instituting it in January, which is really fast.”

Wilmot said many businesses have told the city they like working with the city’s website about the B&O tax and that it has taken some less than 10 minutes to file. She added the city followed the state’s B&O model for the ordinance, which staff believed would help make it easier for businesses to file because they already pay that tax. The city also looked at the cities of Seattle and Bellevue B&O ordinances for guidance.

“We didn’t anticipate there would be this level of confusion,” Wilmot said.

The council adopted the tax on the gross revenue of businesses as part of its three-step approach they agreed on last July to fund park and street repairs.

The other parts included a property tax levy lid lift that voters soundly defeated on the November ballot and the hiring of a consultant to find ways to cut $2 million from the city’s budget.

There is no sunset clause on the B&O tax, meaning it’s here to stay unless a future council removes it. The Chamber wanted a sunset clause of six years.

The council passed the new tax to include $300,000 of the revenue to pay for two auditors to oversee the program. That auditing budget includes $226,468 in salary and benefits to the two auditors; $19,576 in computer and telephone services; $47,756 for tools, equipment and software; $5,200 for dues, membership fees, travel and training; and $1,000 for office supplies, Wilmot said.

“I want to know money is going to fix roads,” Campbell said. “When you do something and telling a business you’re going to hurt their bottom line, the money we give you better be used on what you told us it was for and then prove it to us. And don’t spend $300,000 a year on (two) auditors.”

Campbell also didn’t like the council’s decision on June 4 to use $2 million in B&O revenue to help pay for the $7 million Southeast 256th Street widening project. Council members approved a plan to repay the B&O fund over the next several years when enough money comes into the city through its Transportation Impact Fee (TIF). That fee

OUR CORNER

“Are you satisfied with the performance of the state Legislature?”

Dennis Box

?

Question of the week:

I recently wrote about the Hollywood blacklist era in the 1950s. As I wrote in the previous column my interest was first piqued when I did research for a Alger Hiss story.

Hiss was sent to jail for perjury after Whittaker Chambers named him as a communist before the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

It was an intriguing story that included the “Pumpkin Papers,” which helped sink Hiss and propel Richard Nixon into the spotlight. The state department papers were documents Chambers said he received from Hiss, which brought the case to the level of espionage.

Nixon referred to Hiss and the Pumpkin Papers many times over the course of his career. It was likely one of the reasons he was chosen as Dwight Eisenhower’s running mate in 1952.

I have always been intrigued by Nixon and why he figured Hiss was lying.

Nixon saw Hiss as urbane and an Ivy League snob. Hiss was a Harvard lawyer. Nixon hated Ivy League lawyers and anyone he felt was condescending to him.

When I worked on the Hiss story, I was fascinated reading about Nixon’s visceral disdain for Hiss and how he used this part of his personality to bring Hiss down. That same slice of the Nixon’s personality that moved him into the national spotlight in the Hiss case eventually brought him down in a crash of conflict. The stuff of stories.

Like so many stories I have worked on over the years, what I thought I was writing changed over time.

So many stories shift once the writer gets far enough inside and the complexity and conflicts of the personalities come to the surface.

I have never covered a story in depth where I haven’t been surprised by something on the inside.

That is one of the reasons I never predict political races. Every time I think I am certain, I get surprised by the how unpredictable people are.

I would much rather bet on horses than any political race. Politics are the classic paradigm for human conflict and complexity, which is also what makes it all so interesting – and important.

Longer course could make way for par-3 golfers Regarding the Kent City Council’s decision on the sale or retention of the Par 3 golf course, many of the 18-hole courses I have played over the years have easily accommodated par-3 players as follows: They have added a second tee-off position for par-3 players on all holes, except on par-3 holes, forward of the standard tee-off position, to shorten the fairway for the par-3 golfer.

This solution works especially well on flat courses such as the Kent 18-hole course.

No extra staff or maintenance is needed.

Using this approach would allow the sale of the Par 3 course property for commercial usage and a better tax return. The sale proceeds can be used to pay off most or all of the Par 3 course debt.

Why should we pay taxes or follow the law?

The state is implementing the pot bill against federal law.

The courts are silent.

I called the offices of U.S. Sens. Murray and Cantwell about the pot bill. They said it is under study and they would call me back shortly. I am still waiting for an answer.

Immigration enforcement is willy-nilly. The state and feds waste money. If I don’t pay my taxes, I get fined. If the state doesn’t get its job done on time, it gets overtime pay. No penalty.

They say there’s not enough money for the troops’ medical problems. However, we have tons of money on foreign aid payable to places that hate us.

It makes no sense to me.

[ LETTERS from page 5 ] T was its style yet this T Bridge was so tall You saw it for miles ’cause then all else seemed small And all through its years as it carried our load The Green roared under its grated metal road.

As the rains of the Northwest fell as it must The modern steel T Bridge began to grow rust And its girders and braces began to grow aily Of the semi-tractor trailers that it carried daily.

New bridges were built to help ease T Bridge’s pain And everyone knew one day it would never again Be able to shoulder our

burden and strife And respite, not detour, to a happier time of life.

So man who built T Bridge thought best it go down Hastily rather than subject humanity to drown In the Green that flow’d ‘neath it for 99 years Yet today its flow is filled with many shed tears.

T Bridge that carried both our pain and our joy Now waits for those who built it, those also to destroy The concrete roadblocks its tombstones they are Hast thus stopped its last walker, biker and car.

We peoples have grown to appreciate less Of why we are here and

what made us best It may be T Bridge that brought us together But it was love of each other that we brought over it forever.

So let us remember every little bridge that we take Leads to a story that we all have to make For the past is just the present and future to be seen Just like T Bridge, a memory o’er the Green. – Peter Di Turi

theme garden on the Enumclaw garden tour but you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be into rustic Western collections to make your own garden a personal work of art. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be inspired by the tiny details such as how orange and peach flowers work well with the aged patina of recycled containers. Pick your own color palette and echo it throughout your garden for a landscape that is cohesive and personal.

Display your personal collections outdoors during the summer months to give a patio a cozy living room flair.

From pottery to antiques, use what you have to decorate your outdoor space.

4. Get creative with containers.

In the Matson garden the owner recycled silver-hued garbage cans, coal scuttles and tin tubs then grouped them all together to create a vignette of up-cycled elegance that looks like it came right from France.

You are welcome to take photos at this garden tours and use them for inspiration for your own creative container gardens.

5. Unusual plants will always steal the show.

Sometimes all a garden needs is a new and interesting character to ramp up the drama. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find unusual trees, flashy flowers and shrubs that only the owners may or may not be able to

THE GARDENER

move an ugly or sickly tree (George Washington had the right idea about cutting down that cherry tree) and replace it with some focal point art. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Primitive-futuristicâ&#x20AC;? outdoor sculptures incorporating stone and metal make this a garden that will transport visitors to a whole new world.

2. Flatter the garden with fine foliage.

In the La Penske garden there are mountain views and cold, cruel winds.

By choosing drought-resistant plants with colorful leaves the landscape comes alive with color but is low on maintenance. It is the deft arrangement of the burgundy barberry, golden spiraea and deep purple smoke trees that light up this country garden. Arranging plant material for maximum contrast is a shortcut you can use in container gardens as well as in the large scale landscapes. You may not need to buy any new plants to put this tip to work. Just rearrange the colorful plants you already have with a new eye toward foliage contrasts.

3. Add a personal touch with tiny details.

Every visitor will fall in love with the â&#x20AC;&#x153;cowboyâ&#x20AC;?

Marianne Binetti

Please come see my garden. My hometown, Enumclaw, hosts a tour of eight local gardens to benefit our hospital care van.

The tour is Saturday and includes garden art vendors at every garden and entertainment.

I am giving a seminar at the garden that hosts the food vendors. The topic is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shortcuts to a Show Gardenâ&#x20AC;? and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll learn tips on how anyone can dress up a landscape with very little time or money.

For more information on buying tickets to this garden tour, go to www. enumclawrhf.org or phone 360-802-3206 Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the garden tour? You can see my garden and some highlights from the featured gardens on my new TV show Dig In Seattle this week. The show airs at 7:30 a.m. Sunday on channel 10 or you can watch online at www.dininseattle.com.

Now here are the best shortcuts from some of the amazing gardens youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see on this tour: 1. Use outdoor art work you cannot kill.

At the Roc Nob garden and welding studio you can explore five acres of outdoor sculpture surrounded by unusual specimen plants.

An easy shortcut is to re-

will make the birds happy as well.

Come tour our many gardens

identify in these show gardens. Black lace Elderberry, Golden Lantern Magnolia, Gold lime light currant, a Peaches and Cream maple and deep blue gentian are a few of the specimen plants youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see up close and personal on this garden tour.

Seeing plants in a garden rather than in a row of pots at a nursery is a much better way to imagine how these garden stars will perform in your garden.

6. Use groundcovers to add easy care color.

My own 2 acre garden is an example of weed-blocking groundcovers such as saxifrage and lamiums that help to light up the shaded areas and also provide a carpet for a collection of garden rooms. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see golden foliage as an accent in my blue and yellow garden and also as a border in the woodland walk. I also use pulmonarias instead of a lawn to surround an ivy gazebo â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not only do these groundcovers thrive in dry shade, they flower and also hide the uneven ground full of mole holes. Come see my brick wall with colorful tile inserts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I may not have any blue poppies in bloom, but I do have a â&#x20AC;&#x153;forever bloomingâ&#x20AC;? blue poppy tile displayed on the wall.

7. Just add water.

From bird baths filled with floating flowers to giant ponds of koi and trout, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see new ways of using water in the garden at every stop on this tour. A water feature can turn any garden into a show place â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and

pointed it at the man and told him to sit down. A second officer applied handcuffs to the man.

When asked by an officer if he had left the restaurant without paying, the man replied, “Yeah, something like that.”

Police also discovered the man had a state Department of Corrections warrant for escape and second-degree robbery.

The report didn’t indicate what the man ate at the restaurant or the price of the meal.

Resisting arrest Police arrested a man for investigation of resisting arrest after an officer spotted a Chevy Tahoe with darkly tinted windows traveling at about 10:17 a.m. June 12 in the 25900 block of 27th Place South.

The officer noted the tint was so dark no details of the driver could be seen, according to the police report. The officer also remembered the vehicle from a previous stop on Jan. 31 when he cited the driver for driving while license suspended (DWLS) and unlawful window tint.

When police pulled the Tahoe over this time, it had a woman driver, a man passenger and two

juvenile passengers. The officer recognized the man as the same man he arrested in January. That man had warrants out of Kent for DWLS and making a false statement to a public servant.

Officers asked the man to step out of the vehicle because he was under arrest for the warrants.

The man, who is about 6 feet 3 inches and 310 pounds, refused to get out of the vehicle. The officer grabbed the man’s arm, but the man pulled his arm out of the grasp.

The officer then pulled out a Taser and ordered the man out of the vehicle. The man complied and officers handcuffed him and booked him for resisting arrest and failure to obey a lawful order.

Police cited the woman driver for unlawful window tint because the officer’s tint meter measured 18 percent light transmission, below the legal minimum of 24 percent light transmission. She also was cited for failure to use a child restraint and failure to provide proof of insurance.

Assault Officers arrested a man for investigation of fourth-degree assault after he allegedly punched

PATROL PUSH: Between May 20 and June 2 extra law enforcement patrolled King County roads looking for unbuckled drivers and passengers, and motorists using their cellphones or other electronic devices.

During these patrols, 387 seatbelt infractions were written, in addition to 322 cellphone/texting or usage of other electronic device tickets.

Last year, in King County, during this same time period, officers on extra patrols wrote 296 seatbelt infractions and 197 cellphone violations.

his girlfriend as she drove him to work at about 8:28 a.m. June 11 in the 21200 block of 76th Avenue South.

The woman told officers she had known the man since 1995 and that he had gone off to serve time in prison but was released last year and moved in with her in October, according to the police report.

The couple got in a verbal argument about their living situation when the man reportedly punched her in the face, causing her nose to bleed. The boyfriend then left the car to go to work. The woman called 911.

The boyfriend would neither confirm or deny the girlfriend’s allegations to police.

She also upheld that part of the permit that calls for the track to be quiet on five selected weekend days during the racing season. The permit grants an exception for police and fire safety training that has been allowed on Mondays and Tuesday for many years.

Several people who live near Pacific Raceways alleged the track was not abiding by the conditions of its permit. The track operators maintained they operated on Mondays, Tuesdays and summer weekend days as they had for years, and appealed the Examinerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to the Snohomish County Superior Court.

That appeal was heard earlier this year.

The judge did allow arterial driving education for teens and the elderly as permissible on Mondays and Tuesdays, provided there is no racing, the activities are quiet, and the speeds are low.

One thing Morganne Comstock learned from Carly Stowell when they played basketball together was to do what you love and love what you do.

Comstock, who graduated from Kentlake High School in 2010, has decided to transfer from Eastern Washington University after three years to Hawaii Pacific University so she can do what she loves – play basketball.

Stowell, who died in April 2007 while their select team was in North Carolina for a tournament, continues to inspire Comstock.

But the decision to leave Eastern wasn’t an easy one.

Comstock enjoyed her overall experience there, including her teammates and coaches, which drew her there in the first place. But, as a redshirt sophomore who has played just a handful of games, Comstock saw an opportunity to get back on the court.

“I made a lot of new friends who are going to be hard to say goodbye to and a lot of good friends through being on the Eastern basketball team,” Comstock said in a phone interview May 31. “I have a great time in practice, traveling with the girls on the team. It’s practice, but we always have a good time in practice and we make the best out of it. It’s as good as it could be but not quite what I wanted when I looked to come here.”

KR’S CHASE QUALIFIES FOR NATIONALS Shelby Chase, a student at Kentridge High School, earned the gold medal in the 400 meters at the recent Washington State’s Special Olympics for his team, Kent Storm. The finish allows Chase to apply for the National Games in Princeton, N.J., June 2014.

T-BIRDS HOCKEY SCHOOL RETURNS IN AUGUST The Seattle Thunderbirds Hockey School spans two weeks in August at the ShoWare Center. The dates are Monday, Aug. 5, to Saturday, Aug. 10, and Monday, Aug. 12, to Saturday, Aug. 17. The school consists of several age groups and a junior prep group, which will be geared toward 15 to 19-year-old players preparing for their upcoming junior season.

For pricing and more information, go to www. seattlethunderbirds.com.

Former Kentlake High star Morganne Comstock chose to transfer from Eastern Washington University to Hawaii Pacific University. COURTESY PHOTO, Eastern Washington University Hawaii Pacific offers what she is looking for: to continue to pursue her passion for music and a career in the industry as well as her love of the game of basketball.

“I first did my research before I went out there,” Comstock said. “Their coach was coach of the year. They were 19-7 and they said they needed a big because nobody was over 5-10 last year.”

Comstock stands 6 feet, 2 inches tall, so, in theory she could have an immediate impact for Hawaii Pacific.

And once she arrived for her visit, she immediately felt like it was right.

Kentwood catcher McGuire signs with Pittsburgh Pirates REPORTER STAFF

Recent Kentwood High School graduate Reese McGuire signed a professional contract Tuesday with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

“Officially a Pittsburgh Pirate,”

“I flew down there, I loved the coach, I loved the girls on the team, I just fit right in,” she said. “It’s Hawaii and I loved everything about it. I already knew by hanging with the girls at night that it was a good fit, I clicked right in.”

And while she’s there, Comstock can finish a degree in the communications school and pursue her love of music, though she doesn’t sing. She played clarinet at one point in her life and has tried to teach herself to play piano watching videos on YouTube. But, she just wants to be around

McGuire posted on his Twitter account. “Couldn’t be more excited & proud to be a part of this organization. Time to get to work.”

The Pirates chose McGuire, a catcher, with the 14th overall pick in the June 6 Major League Baseball draft. The 18-year-old received a signing bonus of $2.36 million, according to Baseball America. He attended graduation ceremonies Saturday at the ShoW-

are Center in Kent.

The Pirates held a news conference Tuesday at PNC Park in Pittsburgh to introduce McGuire to the media. He will report to the Gulf Coast League Pirates in Florida, a rookie-level team.

“We are thrilled that Reese has joined the Pirates family and we are excited for him to immediately begin his career within our organization,” Pirates director of scouting

“We take the time to care for both our Owners and Tenants”

Joe DelliCarri said in a statement posted on MLB.com.

McGuire had received a college scholarship to play baseball at the University of San Diego, but decided to turn pro instead.

He was named the 2013 Gatorade Washington Player of the Year.

The 6-foot-1 McGuire batted .436 this season at Kentwood with four home runs and 20 RBIs. He throws right and bats left.

music, whatever that ultimately ends up looking like when she finishes college and begins her career.

“Carly’s quote is ‘Do what you love and love what you do,’” Comstock said. “One of the things I love is music.

If I’m not in a game, I’m singing a song or listening to music. If I could just be around (music), no matter what field, then I will.”

And Stowell, who was the starting point guard for the Kentlake girls basketball team when the pair were freshmen, will be with Comstock in spirit at Hawaii Pacific who will wear

her friend’s No. 21 while playing there.

“I’m excited about that,” Comstock said. “Nobody had it there and the coach already knew (the importance of the number). He’s saving that one for me. I just like to feel close with her when I’m playing basketball.”

Comstock hopes to recapture what she experienced at Kentlake, where she was a four-year starter on varsity.

“I got to play, I got to see the perspective on the court 100 percent,” Comstock said. “Then when I got to Eastern, I was on the bench, I got to be a better teammate. I got a different perspective. I feel like I could become an even better player now that I have that bench perspective. At Kentlake, just the game, that’s what I’m trying to get back to and now tying them all together to be the best player that I can be.”

And while Comstock looks forward to pursuing her love of basketball and music in her new adventure at Hawaii Pacific — she will arrive there Aug. 28 after spending the summer with her family and friends — she will miss the friends she’s made at Eastern.

After Stowell’s death, that was another significant lesson she took away from her friend and teammate.

“I’ve learned to just cherish friendships a lot more,” Comstock said. “Leaving Eastern and all the new friends I’ve made and the teammates, it’s going to be pretty hard.”

Mak Fai Washington Kung Fu Club will perform the popular Lion Dance, a colorful and unique form of martial arts.

The festival welcomes the Blue Heron Heritage Family from the Snohomish Tribe sharing stories, songs and dance from their native culture. The Balefire Irish Dancers return for the fifth year, bringing the clogging from a traditional Irish culture.

The Acacia Foundation, a Turkish American group, will perform a folk dance ritual from the eve of

a Turkish Wedding Night.

According to Dave Mortenson, festival chairman, the event has grown to 300 performers. About 180 volunteers will work the 27 cultural booths and more than 300 local organizational volunteers will work throughout the festival, he said.

Organizers expect 3,000 to 5,000 people to attend.

Free parking is available at the Kent Station and City Hall garages as well as along the streets.

DRIVERS ALONG STATE ROUTE 516 in Kent will notice new signs that use flashing amber lights to warn drivers when a traffic signal is about to change from green to red. The state Department of Transportation (WSDOT) installed the signs along State Route 516 (also known as the Kent Des Moines Road) near the intersections of Military Road and Reith Road. The signs, which were activated June 10, are in effort to reduce highspeed rear-end collisions. “We’ve seen a reduction in collisions in other areas of the state with these advanced warning signs,” said WSDOT traffic engineer Mike Swires in a media release. “We think these could make a difference in this area as well.”
