Physio-Control has been manufacturing emer-
gency medical equipment for 60 years. It all started when Karl William Edmark, a 30-year-old surgeon in 1954, was finishing his residency at the Lahey Clinic in Boston. According to a detailed company brochure, seeing so many patients die on the operating table from cardiac arrest disturbed Edmark. At the time, there wasn’t any sort of electronic monitoring device to [ more PHYSIO page 6 ]
Police investigate attempted sexual assault STAFF REPORT
Police don’t yet have any additional leads in an attempted sexual-assault incident that took place last week in downtown Redmond, according to Janessa Rosick, public information coordinator for the Redmond Police Department. At about 9 p.m. on Feb. 5, Redmond police officers responded to a report of an
assault in progress in the 16100 block of Northeast 85th Street, according to assistant chief Kristi Wilson. Officers contacted a female who reported as she was leaving her place of employment that she was approached by an unknown masked male who initially demanded money, but when the victim refused the suspect physi-
cally assaulted the victim. During the altercation the suspect placed his hand inside the victim’s clothing to commit a sexual assault. The victim was able to scream and fight back, causing the suspect to run off. A K-9 track was unable to locate the suspect. The general suspect description is a male of an unknown race, of average height and build, wearing a
dark jacket or sweatshirt. Rosick said a backpack was recovered within the perimeter police set up, but it is unknown at this time if it is related to the incident. The case is under investigations by Redmond detectives. If anyone has information related to this case, contact Detective Natalie D’Amico at (425) 556-2500.
In the last few weeks, the Redmond Police Department (RPD) received two reports of runaway minors. The two girls, both aged 14, went missing on Jan. 25 and returned home within a week and a half. The first minor was reported back at her home on Jan. 30, said RPD public information coordinator Janessa Rosick. She added that police responded to the call regarding the returned runaway in the 18100 block of Northeast 95th Street, as did the Redmond Fire Department (RFD). Once they responded to the scene, Rosick said RFD medically cleared the teen. “The minor was located at a youth-care facility in Seattle and voluntarily returned home,” she said. The second teen returned to her home in the 18300 block of Northeast 98th Way on Feb. 2, Rosick said. “The minor stated she returned home from staying in Seattle for a week,” she said. “She also reported being in the Bellevue area.” Rosick added that medical attention was declined in this case.
POLICE RESPONSE
When it comes to report-
ing a missing individual, Rosick said, “there is no waiting period.” This applies to minors and adults alike. She said TV and movies can be misleading with their emphasis on the need to wait a certain number of hours before getting police involved. Once the information is reported, Rosick said an officer will respond to the call to make contact with a parent or guardian. If someone is missing for more than 30 days, she said the individual’s information will be filed into a missingperson report form with the Washington State Patrol. Rosick said the way the police respond to a missingpersons report varies on a case-by-case basis. She said with minors, much of it comes down to the parents or guardians and what they know to be the behavior patterns and environments of the youth in question. And if the situation calls for it, Rosick said police will work with other jurisdictions, organizations and agencies to help reunite a youth with their family.

The City of Redmond has received a $40,000 grant from Puget Sound Energy (PSE) to go toward a solar installation project. The grant is the result of the city’s participation in PSE’s Green Power Challenge (GPC) in 2014. Throughout the year, the city worked with PSE to get more residents and businesses to convert to more renewable energy sources. The challenge was part of PSE’s Green Power Program (GPP), a voluntary program that allows the utility’s residential and commercial customers to opt in to support additional renewable energy production in the region. Heather Mulligan, market manager for the GPP, said the renewable energy in the program goes above and beyond what PSE offers. The GPC Redmond participated in also involved the cities of Puyallup and Issaquah. Mulligan said it was a way for PSE to increase awareness and
participation in the GPP. The challenge had a couple different components, she said. The first was for each city. The cities were each given a number they had to reach in terms of PSE customers signing up for the GPP for the first time. Cathy Beam, a principal planner for the City of Redmond, said the city’s goal was to get 252 new customers onto the GPP. “We easily met that number,” she said, adding that Redmond surpassed its goal by about 200 percent. “Our businesses and residents really stepped up.” Beam added that the PSE goal would have brought the city’s total number of customers on the GPP to 1,675. As of Dec. 31, 2014, she said there are 2,160 PSE customers in Redmond on the GPP. Compared to participation in the program on Dec. 31, 2013, that is a growth of 52 percent. In addition, Beam said communities typically see a 3.7-percent participation rate in the GPP. Redmond’s participation rate is now at 6 percent.

“The City of Redmond appreciated the opportunity to participate in PSE’s Green Power Challenge Program and I am proud our city did so well,” said Redmond Mayor John Marchione. “Our residents and business owners believe in the importance of green power to reduce our carbon footprint.” Beam said the city also wanted to lead by example, saying that City Hall is now on all-green electric power, as of Jan. 1. By reaching its PSE-set goal, Redmond received $20,000. Mulligan said the second part of the challenge was a competition among the three cities to see which community could get the highest percentage of new customers to sign up for the GPP. Redmond won this challenge and received another $20,000 for its success. “The purchase of green power for City Hall enabled the city to lead by example,” Marchione said. “Together our community won the challenge and secured a $40,000 grant for a solar installation project on the municipal campus.” Beam said the details of Redmond’s solar installation have not been determined yet but they do know it will be somewhere on the City Hall campus. She said the city will be working with PSE on the project, as well. Mulligan said when signing up for the GPP, customers can choose from two options. The first option is a $4 flat fee added to customers’ bill for a 320 kilowatt-hour (kWh) block of renewable energy. Mulligan said customers can add to this in $2 — or 160 kilowatt-hour — blocks. The second option is based on customers’ usage. Mulligan said if customers want all of their electricity to be from renewable energy, it is an additional cost of $0.0125 per kWh. According to the PSE website, this comes out to about $10-$12 per month for the average household. “The environmental [ more GREEN page 3 ]

benefit is equivalent to taking a car off the road for a year,” the website states. Mulligan said PSE has been doing GPCs since 2006. Most have been with individual cities and last year’s challenge with Redmond, Puyallup and Issaquah was the utility’s second multi-city challenge. Since 2006, Mulligan said PSE has worked with about a dozen cities altogether. “The real goal (of the GPP) is to create a market for renewable energy projects,” she said.

Super Bowl passes on life lessons The 12 flags are still flying and people are still sporting their Seahawks apparel. It was a tough Super Bowl loss to deal with and fans are probably still shaking their heads about what could have been. But the Seattle fans are holding their heads high and most likely anxiously awaiting next season and a shot at redemption. (I can relate on a smaller level, since I’m a Niners fan and am still reeling over our subpar season.) While watching the Super Bowl from start to finish, I couldn’t help but see life lessons strewn throughout the championship game that we can all use each day at home, work and wherever else we roam. While the game did come down to one play, that wasn’t the only play that mattered in the grand scheme of things. There were two top-notch Patriots drives that amounted to 14 points and put the Seahawks in the position to mount the final drive. If the Patriots don’t score the 14, the Hawks would have been in a better place — on the victory podium.

Legislature needs to fix 520 bridge toll system
If you use the 520 bridge, you know you have to pay a toll. If you don’t, you expect the state Department of Transportation to send you a bill for it. That sounds so reasonable — and fair. But it’s not. In fact, the state is facing a class-action lawsuit claiming the DOT is making it next to impossible for motorists to win an appeal of what can be onerous fines that go along with the missed tolls. The Legislature needs to fix an obviously flawed system. The problem is that if you miss paying a toll the DOT says it is under no requirement to tell you about it. The result can be a fine that just keeps growing and growing. And forget it if you think you can appeal your case and get a reasonable hearing. The DOT sets the fines for missed tolls, doesn’t have to tell you as the fines grow and grow and
then has an appeals process that has limits on how much flexibility administrative law judges have in their decisions. Judge, jury and executioner all in one. And they say government can’t be efficient. Sen. Andy Hill, who represents Redmond, has a proposal to improve the DOT’s customer service, address technology gaps and establish a onetime toll penalty amnesty program. All are worth consideration given that losing a class-action lawsuit would be really expensive for the state. Not only would the state likely have to repay toll penalties, but also face triple damages and attorneys’ fees. The Legislature is scrambling for money to pay for schools and other core functions. Having the state on the hook for a flawed toll system will only make things worse. It doesn’t have to come to that. The Legislature needs to follow up on Hill’s plan and, if necessary, develop it further.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene for sponsoring a bill that supported border protection (Jan. 2). One can only wonder if Michael Cox is at all familiar with her voting record providing consistent legislative votes for legalizing millions per year of illegal immigration and pushing non-enforcement of any laws that discourage it. It is a record that earns her an “F” by NumbersUSA, and makes clear that the bill Cox lauds was more of a political “appearance” measure than a substantive one. The 1st District recognition should be for her consistent voting record and not for one that just made an appearance of being for border protection and control.

Concerns arise regarding e-cigarettes, signage in Redmond In July 2014, while driving in the Bear Creek neighborhood of Redmond, James Reinnoldt and his teenage daughters saw some signs advertising a local business selling e-cigarettes and vaporizers. After seeing these signs, one of his daughters responded with a “wow” to learn that the products came in various flavors. This reaction caused some concerns for Reinnoldt, who lives in unincorporated King County near Redmond.
ONE PER BUSINESS
One of his concerns was the fact that the business — eCig n’ Vape, located at 18001 N.E. 76th St. in Redmond — had so many signs up at the time. “I’ve always felt strongly about roadside signs,” Reinnoldt said. Within the City of Redmond limits, commercial businesses are limited to just one A-frame sign. Carl McArthy, a code enforcement officer for the City of Redmond, said these signs must be no bigger than six square feet and are only allowed to be displayed during the business’s open hours of operation and have to be taken in when the business is closed. And while the city has placed these limitations, McArthy said they do not have any control of what these signs say. “We don’t regulate what is on the sign because we want to be content neutral,” he said about the city. McArthy added that these are limited to signs
for commercial businesses located within the City of Redmond’s limits. “Political signs are different,” he said. Commercial business signs within the city must not be placed in the middle of sidewalks and must be placed on the side and out of the street so the roads and walkways are accessible for pedestrians, wheelchairs, strollers, cars and others using the sidewalks or streets. McArthy said about once a week, the city’s code enforcement officers do a sign sweep throughout town and if they find a business with more than one A-frame sign, they will pick up the extra signs and bring them to the business to explain how they are only allowed one. “A lot of the time, they’re a new business that doesn’t know or they’re a new manager,” he said about businesses that have more than one A-frame sign. When it comes to repeat offenders, McArthy said they will confiscate the extra signs and hold them for 30 days. After that, if the businesses want their signs back, they have to pay a $50 retrieval fee. If this happens more than once, McArthy
said they may add a fine on top of the retrieval fee.
TARGETING YOUTH
Cary Falk, who owns eCig n’ Vape in Redmond, along with its other locations throughout the Puget Sound region, said the only time the business has had more than one sign has been when they first opened in Redmond about a year ago. But he said they made sure that those additional signs were outside the city limits. Currently, he said the Redmond business has only one sign, but they do rotate its location between Avondale Way and Redmond Way. eCig n’ Vape has also been a cause of concern for Reinnoldt because he said the business’s advertising seems to be targeting kids and could lead them to start smoking. “I feel that the City of Redmond, like other communities in the United States, should regulate the promotion and sale of all nicotine products in order to protect the overall health and well-being of our citizens, especially the impressionable and vulnerable teenage segment,” he said. While there is legislation — the Fam-

www.redmond-reporter.com company’s goal is to manufacture emergency response tools to help clinicians and emergency responders, anywhere in the world, through the toughest kind of emergencies. “We take our responsibilities seriously,” the website states. “When we say we work to help save lives, we mean it.” Last Saturday, PhysioControl celebrated its 60th anniversary with an open house event that was a “tremendous success,” said company spokesperson Matt Fikse. He said company team members, retirees and friends of the company coming from as far away as New Zealand attended the event. “Guests even included the first employee hired by the company in 1955,” Fikse said. “More than 1,000 people attended and enjoyed a factory tour, a performance by the University of Washington Husky Marching Band and remarks from company leaders and visiting VIPs.” He said one of the things many people enjoyed during the event was being able to catch up with old friends and colleagues and sharing stories of their work to help launch and develop the company and its products. In addition, Fikse said Brian Bonlender, the direc-

tor of the Washington State Department of Commerce, also spoke at the event and delivered a letter from Gov. Jay Inslee congratulating the company on its six decades of business and thanking the company for its service. In his letter, Inslee said Washingtonians “are driven to invent, discover and imagine” and these are the foundations upon which Physio-Control was launched. “Dr. Karl Edmark and the early team members were driven to invent – to create new lifesaving technologies such as the DC defibrillator, a tool that has become essential for emergency response teams and that has helped improve cardiac arrest survival rates in places all around the world,” the letter reads. “In the decades since, Physio-Control scientists, engineers and researchers were driven to discover — to find new therapies and to create new emergency response devices that needed to be practical, usable and clinically effective.” Inslee wrote that thanks to these state’s emergency medical responders, health-care providers and companies such as PhysioControl, Washington is a leader in creating effective systems of care for medical emergencies.

that may work with the police to reconnect a runaway youth with their family. Derek Wentorf, director for homeless youth services for FOY, said their goal is to work with families so they don’t get to the point where youths feel their best option is to leave home. He said FOY works with local school districts to help with in-school counseling and prevention work. Unfortunately, Wentorf said decreased funding has led to cuts in full-time counselors. “That prevention work is really critical,” he said. These cuts in counseling could lead to altercations in school or even suicidal thoughts, Wentorf said.
A SAFE PLACE TO GO
In addition to helping with prevention, FOY also has a shelter for youth younger than 18 on the Eastside in a confidential location. Wentorf said the youth who end up at their shelter could be running from foster care or just from home. If it is the latter, they will work with the young person to help them reconnect with their family. Sometimes, that involves working with the police, he said. Wentorf added that in the last year, there were 125 instances in which a youth or young adult has left FOY programs to go back home. FOY also works with reunited families to strengthen skills to help them deal with escalated situations. For example, Wentorf said, something as simple as stepping away from a confrontation and just taking a break can help prevent things from getting too escalated.

In addition, Wentorf said FOY is part of Safe Place, a national outreach and prevention program for young people in need of immediate help and safety. He said local businesses with a Safe Place sign can connect youth in crisis with FOY to connect them with the resources they need. Similarly, Kate Leigh, outreach counselor for Youth Eastside Services (YES) at the Kirkland Teen Union Building (KTUB), works with young people to connect them with the right resources for their situation. She said if she is working with a young person in need of shelter, she will refer them to FOY or other resources. Through her job, the young people she meets with — typically aged 14-24 from around the Eastside (though sometimes the other side of the lake) — will be in need of shelter after being kicked out of the house by family or friends they may be staying with, or they may be staying at a shelter and have reached or are reaching the maximum number of days they can stay there. “Each youth situation is very different,” she said, adding that through the youths she has worked with, she has seen a massive amount of resilience among them after what they have had to face. Leigh added that she does not work too much with the police or a youth’s family as the young person’s safety is her first priority. And part of that is protecting the youth’s confidentiality. But if she feels reuniting a family could be the solution, Leigh said she will refer the young person to other resources to help with this.

HARDCORE ABOUT CARDING
Although eCig n’ Vape is located right across the street from The Sammamish Montessori School, Falk said he is not aware of any sort of legislation — state or federal — related to e-cigarette businesses that would limit their locations as the Tobacco Control Act would. He said the reason they are located where they are is because he owns the business park
that houses the store and he just happened to have an open space available at the time. “I didn’t have a tenant,” he said. Falk added that in Washington, an individual must be 18 years old or older to be able to purchase e-cigarettes and related products so they check identifications for anyone who looks even remotely young. “We’re very hardcore about that,” he said about carding people.

Trio named to Together Center board of directors Redmond’s Together Center announced the addition of Pedro Castro, Ross Marzolf and Rob Forenza to its board of directors. Castro, a Redmond resident, is founder and principal of Magellan Architects, located in Redmond. He recently completed a term on the Washington State Board of Architecture Registration, a six-year position for which he was appointed by the state governor. He has also served on a variety of other boards, including the Lake Washington Institute of Technology Advisory Board, the Washington Minority Business Advisory Council and Emerald Heights, among others. “We are very lucky to have Pedro join the work of our board of directors,” said board chair Chandra Roussell. “He is very involved in the community and has been a strong supporter of Together Center. His expertise and experience are a real asset to us.” Castro made news in 2013 by riding his motorcycle from Redmond to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, his native country. A Seattle resident, Marzolf is communications director and policy aide for King County Council member Kathy Lambert’s office. In addition to involvement in election and political organizations, Marzolf has worked in event planning and social

media work for several different companies. “Ross has already come on board as a Together Center ambassador and taken the lead in organizing plans for Together Center’s 25th anniversary celebration and inaugural fundraising breakfast (to be held March 25),” said board chair Hank Myers, also a Redmond City Council member. “He really believes in the Together Center one-stop model, and we are lucky to have his expertise and experience with the community.” Forenza, a resident of Issaquah, is principal, designated broker for Applied Capital, located in Bellevue. A member of the Rotary Club of Redmond, he brings expertise in commercial real estate and E-commerce. He has a J.D. law degree from Golden Gate University School of Law in San Francisco, and a bachelor of science degree in business administration with a concentration in finance from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo.
“We are very lucky to have Rob join the work of our board of directors,” said board chair Hank Myers. “He has been involved Rob Forenza in seeking property for Together Center in Issaquah, and more recently has participated in our committee for finance and property. His expertise and experience are very important to us, as is his interest in helping the community.” One of the first nonprofit multitenant centers in the nation, Together Center was designed first and foremost to lower barriers to finding help. Where East King County residents once needed to travel from Bothell to Renton or beyond to find help at individual locations, people from throughout the Eastside, now find comprehensive assistance at one location in downtown Redmond. Services include medical and dental care, youth shelter, child care assistance, youth and family counseling and more. Tens of thousands of people were assisted on campus last year. Together Center is located at 16225 N.E. 87th St. For more information, contact (425) 869-6699 or visit www.togethercenter.org.

In some marriages, one spouse handles all the household financial matters, including investments. If this person were to pass away first,
You and your spouse should discuss your sources of income and identify which ones are specifically tied to each spouse and may be affected by a death, such as pensions and Social Security benefits. You’ll also want to talk about options to boost future income upon the death of a spouse. Do you have adequate life insurance? Have you considered investments that can be structured to provide a lifetime income stream?

it could leave the surviving spouse with the dual responsibility of managing day-to-day finances and tracking down all investment information. These tasks could be overwhelming to someone who is unprepared to deal with them, so you’ll want to take steps to ensure you and your spouse are aware of your joint financial picture. For starters, keep good records of all your financial assets, including investment accounts, life insurance policies and legal documents — and make sure both of you know where these records are kept. Also, if you use the services of a financial professional, it’s a good idea for you and your spouse to meet regularly with this individual to ensure both of you know where your money is being invested and how close you are to achieving your financial goals.

the types of questions you’ll want to answer as you think about providing adequate income for the partner who outlives the other.
LEAVING A LEGACY
If you and your spouse haven’t already done so, take this opportunity to discuss your estate plans. For example, you may want to talk about the need to consult with a legal advisor to determine if you, as a couple, could benefit from setting up some type of trust arrangement. You should also discuss how, when the time comes, you want to handle any retirement assets, such as IRAs,
that were titled in the deceased spouse’s name. Do you both want the assets to immediately roll over to the surviving spouse, or should you name your children as beneficiaries? Estate considerations can be complex and involve many different aspects of your financial resources. So you and your spouse need to be “on the same page” with your desires and goals.

Redmond High gymnasts will spring into action at districts ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com
Emma Anson and Elly Yochum joked with each other as they stretched during a gymnastics workout on Tuesday afternoon. Head coach Jason Farr shook his head and joined in on the laughter when he glanced at his Redmond High athletes, who are headed to the 4A District 1/4 meet at 4:05 p.m. tomorrow at Newport High. Farr knows that he’s got a solid duo on his hands. Anson, a junior, and Yochum, a freshman, have bonded this season and the coach wants the girls to keep that camaraderie alive tomorrow and hopefully all the way to the state meet on Feb. 20-21 at the Tacoma Dome Exhibition Hall. The girls know they’ve got their work cut out for them at districts and Farr wants to make sure they’re focused and having fun. “These two, I want them to look back on it and say they enjoyed it, did well and got something out of it,” Farr said during a break in Tuesday’s practice
Elly Yochum, left, and Emma Anson will compete at tomorrow’s district gymnastics meet. ANDY NYSTROM, Redmond Reporter at Eastside Gymnastics Academy in Woodinville. Anson, 16, only stretched during Tuesday’s practice because she was giving her sprained left ankle and sore back a break, but said she’s “ready to push through the last little bit” at districts and possibly state. She qualified for state last year on floor and is set to perform in the all-around competition tomorrow.
It took her a while to get on board with 4A Kingco meets this year because she was sidelined with a back injury for several weeks. Anson didn’t like sitting out one bit. “I would say a good metaphor for it was like you have an itch and you can’t scratch it,” she said. “It’s a horrible feeling when you’re yearning to compete, but not being
able to do it. I’m excited to be competing again. My skills are not my best — but I’m doing my best.” Farr said that Anson is a hard worker on all her events and is especially graceful when she’s flowing to the music on her floor routine. As for Yochum, 14, she’ll be competing on floor and vault at districts. At the 4A Kingco meet, she was thrilled to pull off
a tough tumbling pass on floor to raise her starting scoring level to 10.0 — she notched an 8.65 on the event. “It was a new tumbling pass and I worked on it that day in warmups. That’s what got me to districts,” Yochum said of the front tuck, step out, round off, back tuck pass. “It was crazy,” Anson said of her teammate’s stellar floor performance. Yochum, whose family moved to Redmond from Boise, Idaho two years ago, returned to gymnastics this year after taking four years off to nurse an injured back and several other injuries. She’s surprised that everything came back to her so quickly and she’s proud of herself for performing well at each practice and meet. Farr is impressed with Yochum’s positive attitude and willingness to challenge herself and gain extra points on her routines. Both Anson and Yochum began their gymnastics careers at 4 years old and competed with club teams before joining
the high-school ranks. These days, Anson is part of Eastside Gymnastics Academy’s exhibition squad when not competing with Redmond High; in her time away from the Mustangs, Yochum plays soccer with the Crossfire Premier program. Aside from challenging themselves physically in the gymnastics arena, Anson said they’ve got to be on top of things mentally, as well. “The mental part of gymnastics is 50 percent or more of the sport,” said Anson, noting that the keys to achieving success are 100 percent commitment, zero hesitation when trying to stick tough routines and having trust in yourself and faith in your ability. “You have to think you can do it — can’t is an illegal word in the gym.” “You have to put everything into it and you’ll be able to accomplish anything,” said Yochum, who noted that she missed competing and having that adrenaline rush. “It’s a really good experience to come back — a great feeling.”

Flynn stepping down from City Council at the end of his term Redmond City Council member Tom Flynn announced on Sunday that he will not seek a second term. Flynn was elected to the council in 2011, filling Pos. 5 after Richard Cole’s retirement. “It has been very rewarding to serve the City of Redmond,” said Flynn. “During my term, it has been gratifying to see the city make steady progress towards a sustainable vision of two livable urban centers, planning for future light rail and retention of our single family neighborhoods.” Flynn said he and his wife Kim, now empty nesters, plan to downsize from their house on Education Hill and move to another home in or near Redmond after his term is completed at the end of this year.
Flynn expects to remain involved in public policy and community leadership roles in the areas of sustainable development, arts and culture and fiscal policy. Flynn is the current chair of the council’s Planning and Public Works Committee. He is also a member of the council’s Public Administration and Finance Committee. He represents the city as a board member for OneRedmond and Cascade Water Alliance. Flynn is also manager of generation operations at Puget Sound Energy. “The City Council and mayor work well together and they share a strong vision for a sustainable and livable Redmond rich in art and culture,” said Flynn. “I expect that other local community leaders will step forward to help move that vision forward in a fiscally responsible manner.”
Birney announces bid for Redmond City Council Pos. 5 Parks and Trails Commissioner Angela Birney announced her campaign for Redmond City Council Pos. 5. “I will be a fresh voice representing our community,” she said. “Redmond is experiencing unprecedented growth and development. As a 17year resident, I understand what makes Redmond a unique and desirable place to live, work and play. As we continue to grow, it is important to balance urban development with enhancements to our thriving local neighborhoods. From making innovative transportation solutions to developing our neighborhood parks, it will be important to find ways to engage residents

of Redmond in long range planning. As a parent, community volunteer and neighbor I am eager to offer my experience and insights to Redmond City Council.” Currently, Birney serves as the vice chair of the City of Redmond’s Parks and Trails Commission and is a community representative on the Lake Washington School District Middle School Science Adoption Committee. She has served on the Episcopal Church of the Holy Cross vestry, Norman Rockwell Elementary School PTSA Board,
Lake Washington Schools Foundation Junior High Science Grant Committee, as well as other volunteer positions in and around Redmond. In her capacity as a Parks and Trails Commissioner, Birney actively participated in the planning and review process for the City of Redmond’s biennial budget and provided her voice throughout the evolution of the Downtown Park and Redmond Recreation Center master plans.

Next month, Pacific Northwest grocery chain Haggen will take ownership of the Albertsons at 3925 236th Ave. N. in Redmond. The local establishment will be one of 26 stores (Albertsons and Safeways) in Washington to be converted to the Haggen banner in February, March and June. The first will be the Albertsons in Monroe at 12:01 a.m. on Thursday. Overall, Haggen plans to acquire and convert 146 stores in Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada and Arizona in the first half of 2015. The acquisitions are part of the divestment process brought about by the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) review of the Albertsons LLC and Safeway merger. The FTC approved the divesture on Jan. 27 and the merger of Albertsons and Safeway Inc. was completed on Jan. 30. “This momentous acquisition is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to rapidly expand the Haggen brand across the West Coast,” said John Caple, chairman of the Haggen board of directors and partner at Comvest Partners, a private investment firm that owns the majority share of Haggen. “Now that the deal has closed, our team is focused on seamlessly converting
these 146 stores to the Haggen brand over the next five months.”
