Tolling company for 405 sued for operations on 520 Class-action lawsuit claims ETC failed to notify drivers of toll bills BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com

he vendor handling the tolling fees for the HOV lanes on Interstate 405 going through Kirkland starting this fall is the same vendor WSDOT has for the 520 bridge tolling. Electronic Transaction Consultants (ETC) currently processes tolling transactions for the 520 bridge, as well as han-
dling the lane systems for the State Route 167 hotlane. ETC’s handling of public tolls has met with criticism in recent years. In 2012, they agreed to compensate the state for $6.4 million due to delays on the tolling. In January, both ETC and WSDOT were hit with a class-action lawsuit over billing for the Good to Go Pass, claim-
ing that ETC failed to notify drivers of toll bills by taking advantage of WAC 468-305-130, which says a bill “may be sent” to the vehicle owner but does not require it. The lawsuit alleged that the policy is “an intentional act by the WSDOT to dodge the fundamental constitutional protections of notice and due process.” WSDOT Director of
Former Kirkland journalists chase their passions
Patch work success
BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com
Last weekend three Kirkland residents and former Kirkland Patch employees came together to showcase their creativity in wine making, publishing and painting - and celebrate their successes since parting from the national media company. Former Kirkland Patch editor and Seattle PostIntelligencer outdoors reporter Greg Johnston and Patch columnists Julie Arnon and Jennifer Armstrong held a joint event Saturday at the Armstrong Family Winery in Woodinville. There, attendants got a chance to sample wine made by Tim Armstrong, Jennifer Armstrong’s husband, while listening to Johnston discuss his new book, “Washington’s Pacific Coast: A Guide to Hiking, Camping, Fishing & Other Adventures,” and view a series of Arnon’s social-media inspired paintings. “It’s fun to be able to showcase and celebrate with people from your past who have known about the hard work you put in to make these things happen,” Arm-
Cooperations Patty Rubstello said that the delays with the 520 tolling were due to the fact that ETC was implementing the tolling process for the first time. Now that it has been done before, they don’t anticipate any delays with I-405. “It just took more time for them to develop that functionality,” she said. “Since that functionality exists now, we don’t think it will be an issue.” Rubstello stated that the class-action lawsuit
is still ongoing but hasn’t led to any changes for I-405 tolling. “Everything we’re looking at is in concert with how we’re implementing tolling on our other facilities and taking the necessary steps to test everything out so that when we go live everything works,” she said. The Washington State Transportation Commission (WSTC) voted in March to set the toll rates for I-405 after deciding whether or not

The event also showcased their passions and accomplishments. All three had already discovered their respective passions and interests when they first starting working for Kirkland Patch, a community news website, in 2010. Johnston, who had worked for the Seattle PI for 25 years, developed a fascination with the Washington coastline, where he had spent many family summer vacations. “That began my love affair with the coast of
Washington,” he said. “It was just a magical place for me as a kid.” During his time reporting, he discovered that while there were books on specific aspects of the coast, there was no comprehensive guide. “People used to call me occasionally and ask me ‘What’s a good book on the coast of Washington?’” he said. “I said, ‘there isn’t any.’” When the Seattle PI closed its print publication and laid off most of its staff in 2009, Johnston
began conducting research, writing the initial chapters for the book. “I was suddenly left unemployed and nothing to do,” he said. “So I did what I do best, which was write… The research wasn’t too intense because I had this long history with the coast. A friend I was talking to recently, he asked what was the big surprise was (while researching). I said there wasn’t anything, because I knew the coast so well.” One thing he didn’t [ more PATCH page 6 ]
to implement a toll on the existing carpool lane from State Route 522 to Interstate 5, along with two lanes between Northeast 6th Street in Bellevue and SR 522 in Bothell, a total of 17 miles. At the moment, they are testing the system used for the toll lanes to ensure that it can read license plates correctly, according to WSDOT Toll Communications Jennifer Rash. Rubstello also said that they are testing to [ more TOLLS page 2 ]
A man in his 50s was killed early Tuesday morning when the truck he was driving crashed into four cars located at an apartment complex in the North Rose Hill neighborhood. The crash occurred just five days after a motorcyclist hit a woman and her two dogs in a crosswalk in downtown Kirkland. According to Kirkland police spokesperson Lt. Mike Murray, the truck crash occurred at around 2 a.m. when the man was driving a fullsize Ford pickup truck northbound on 132nd Avenue Northeast past the Lake Washington Institute of Technology. As he was driving toward the left to go westbound on Northeast 120th Avenue, he in-
stead continued driving straight into the Montebello Apartment Homes located across the road. The truck struck a tree, then a dumpster before smashing into four other cars. All vehicles were totaled, Murray said. Police estimate the truck’s speed to have been 90-100 miles per hour at the time of the crash. Although the vehicle is registered to a Kirkland resident, it is not known whether the driver was the owner, according to Murray. It is also not known at this time whether he was under the influence of alcohol or drugs. A 20-year-old male motorcyclist was arrested by Kirkland police on June 10 for reckless driving and vehicular assault after he struck a [ more KPD page 5 ]

The system determines the toll price drivers pay when they enter the lane based on the traffic flow, with a minimum of 75 cents and a maximum of $10. WSDOT claims 90 percent of tolls will be less than $4. “We’re just making sure it’s (the system) updating,” she said. “Right now what you see looks like
www.kirklandreporter.com gibberish on the signs, letters and numbers, but for our toll engineers it translates into something.” The decision to toll the lanes drew large criticism by attendees during the public meetings, including private citizens who commute on I-405 as well as local city officials. One of their criticisms was WSDOT’s decision to have exemptions for carpools with three or more people during peak hours, as opposed
to two. Peak hours are between 5-9 a.m. and 3-7 p.m. Other exemptions include vanpools, buses and motorcyclists. To use the express toll lanes without an additional fee, drivers must have a Good To Go! account and a Flex Pass. Carpools will also have to get a transponder to place in the vehicle. Washington State Patrol officers will enforce the threeperson carpool rule. Another criticism leveled at the proposal
was that tolling the HOV lanes would lead to spillover traffic in cities such as Kirkland, Kenmore and Bothell, where drivers would go to avoid both the bad traffic as well as the toll. Rash said that while WSDOT has concerns about spillover, traffic on I-405 is already slow. She added that they don’t believe the new toll is comparable to traffic issues caused by tolling the Interstate 520 Bridge, where people have to
pay the toll to take the bridge or use State Route 522 through Bothell and Kenmore. On I-405, she said, drivers can still use the other remaining lanes on I-405 and not have to pay. “I think if people feel like they have an option….they will take the express toll lane,” she said. “It’s obviously going to be an adjustment for drivers. We might see some diversion initially... I think it’ll be a shorter time of adjustment than
that of the bridge because people couldn’t cross the bridge without paying the toll.” It is possible tolling could be removed if the system is not able to cover operation costs in the next two years, at which WSDOT would evaluate whether to remove it, according to Rash. The actual date for when tolling will begin is expected to be announced sometime next month.

Woodinville to contract with Kirkland for court services BY TJ MARTINELL
tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com
Woodinville will join several other cities on the Eastside in having its court services handled through the Kirkland Justice Center under a new interlocal agreement approved by the City Council at their June 16 meeting. Woodinville currently contracts with the King County District Court but the term is set to expire at the end of 2016. Court services will begin in Kirkland in 2017. The agreement will last five years and be automatically renewed. Based on stats from 20132014, Woodinville had an annual caseload of around
1,000 cases, 750-888 infractions and 180-190 criminal misdemeanor cases. Under the interlocal agreement, Kirkland is expected to receive a net new revenue of $70,000, though it will be less in the first year due to discrepancies in case filing and collection of fines and fees. Kirkland will pay for all jury fees for Woodinville, along with language interpretation services, while Woodinville will be responsible for providing prosecution services. Woodinville would also appoint the current Kirkland Municipal Court judge to preside over its own court. The cities currently share the same contracted prosecutor with Kirkland-based law firm Moberly and Roberts.

GUEST EDITORIAL
Hunger must be addressed politically
T
he problem of food insecurity in the United States was first widely discussed in the late 1960s. Since then, Americans have understood that domestic hunger was an issue, but it wasn’t until the mid-1990s that the United States Census Bureau was able to come up with a set of questions to accurately evaluate hunger. The difficulty was in establishing a meaningful definition of hunger that had a significance in an American context. Hunger in a country with so much food and a high rate of obesity seems like a paradox. However, according to a USDA food report, nearly 15 percent of United States households have severely limited access to food sometime during the year. These misconceptions and paradoxes emphasize that the state of hunger in the United States is much more complicated than a scarcity of food, and is rooted in systemic issues. The United States position paper for the 1996 World Food Conference defines food security as “all people at all times have physical and economic access to sufficient food to meet their dietary needs for a productive and healthy life.” There are three dimensions to food security: availability of highquality food, access to that food and adequate treatment of food-related healthcare. Surveys conducted on food concerns in the United States found that low household income was the strongest predictor of vulnerability to food insecurity. The Food Stamp Program, which aims to assist families in need, only provides 79 cents per person per meal on average. This isn’t nearly enough to acquire food of appropriate quality. Studies show that this shortage of food stamp money can lead to either sacrificing meals for the sake of family members’ nutrition, or a dependence on inexpensive staples.

also be a physiological response to hunger. In order to compensate for periodic food shortages, the body becomes more efficient at storing fat. United States child obesity has tripled since 1980, with 9.5 percent of infants and toddlers and 16.9 percent of children ages 2-19 considered obese. $147 billion was spent on obesity-related health care 2008, about 10 percent of the medical spending. Although food banks and nonprofits do lots of work to assist people who are food-insecure, they can only provide short-term relief. This high rate of food insecurity results from unbalanced costs of foods and lack of aid to low-income families. Food insecurity needs to be addressed at the root of the cause. Hunger must be addressed politically.

Rate of Global Warming Since 1998 has not slowed
KIRKLAND
Chips, soda and cookies are vastly cheaper than fresh produce because the federal government pours money into agriculture that is used to make these unhealthy food products. In the early 1930s and ‘40s, as a result of President Roosevelts’ New Deal, mostly family farmers were benefiting from programs that subsidized food costs. However, as the agricultural sector became more concentrated, more of the operations benefiting from subsidies were more like agribusinesses than family farms. Since 1995, the USDA has spent more than $250 billion dollars on farm subsidies, often resulting in an abundance of food products made from corn, soy and wheat. Charity organizations like food banks hand out donations, which are often nonperishable, cheap, subsidized junk food. Besides the fact that junk foods are much cheaper and do not provide nutritional value, obesity can
I thought I would rebut the assertion from Mr. Roger Clarle-Johnson that global temperatures have stopped rising dramatically during the first decade of the 21st century. Picking a convenient year such as 1998 can give you a result that you feel satisfies your hypothesis that climate change is false. 1998 was a record hot year with a large spike in global temperatures. If you take a short time line, such as 17 years, to explain a pause in rising global surface temperatures and that happens to start on a record hot year, then I guess over this short period that you choose then it has not increased greatly from a baseline temperature in 1998. Scientists rely on a larger time line to assess statistically significant changes to take into account short-term fluctuation in temperatures. We are talking about climate change and not a change in the weather. Your slope of global temperature rise over this short period of time would be greatly different if you chose a colder year as your starting point rather than 1998 or a more significant period of time such as a 30 year time line. Today it was a high of 73 degrees in Kirkland but yesterday it was in the mid 80s. I guess we are in a cycle of cooling. No problem here in my home town.

No mention of bicycles in red
light legislation Regarding the letter to the editor (Bike riders should be required to carry insurance) appearing in the June 12 edition of the Kirkland Reporter, I believe both the letter writer and the editor have mischaracterized the intent of the SB1541. Unless there has been a more recent revision of the legislation than that posted on the Washington State website, the subject law very specifically refers only to “street legal motorcycles.” There is no mention of bicycles; and, the legislation only allows motorcycle operators to proceed through a red light “that is controlled by a triggered traffic control signal using a vehicle detection device that is inoperative due to the size of the street legal motorcycle” to proceed through the intersection if, after coming to a full and complete stop at the intersection, the signal fails to operate after one cycle of the traffic signal.

Kirkland needs more dog parks I often walk my dog around Heritage Park, and also Crestwood Park, as do oh-so-many other downtown Kirkland residents and yet we have no dog park anywhere in downtown Kirkland. Yes, I know that there’s one in Totem Lake hidden away in the backstreets, but not only is it covered in bark - not brilliant for our many longer and lighter-haired doggies - but it seems counterenvironmentally-friendly to have to get into the car to take the dog for a walk.
As I walked around Heritage Park today, it occurred to me that there are several grassy areas on the east side of the cement walkway as well as one at the southern tip of the park by the arch/Heritage Park sign that could be perfect for a couple of smallish dog parks; one for small/medium dogs and one for the larger dogs. Whilst I can understand that a handful of residents may argue that some adults and children are afraid of dogs and would not want to use the park if there were a dog park in or near it; it seems to me a lot less scary than the great big Alsatian I saw running around off-leash this afternoon, or the huge Great Dane that came bounding towards me a few weeks back, or worse still the Border Collie that chased my two year old and literally tore at her pants thinking she was a sheep. Yes, it’s an on-leash park and therein lies the problem; dog-owners pretty much have no choice but to release their dogs from time to time for a good runaround which they desperately need (the dogs that is) as they frantically tug and pull on their leash, no matter how well trained they are. What’s the owner to do? Personally, I actually think it would add yet more character to an already fabulous community park (emphasis on ‘community’ which includes residents with dogs). It’s great to walk around it, play games, fly kites and laze around on the main grass, and play tennis on the courts. Just think - with a dog park (or two), residents would then also be able to enjoy observing all kinds of dog breeds in their own dog park frolicking around.

[6] June 19, 2015 [ PATCH from page 1] want to do, however, was write a standard guidebook. He wanted a book that would cover the natural and cultural history of the coast and would allow the reader to have greater appreciation for it. “It wasn’t just that I wanted to write a book. I wanted to write about what I love intelligently, in a way readers know how to treat and respect this place,” he said. “My real goal is to educate people about what a treasure our coast is, so they can approach it from an intelligent perspective, a perspective of respect. Ultimately, I want people and readers to protect and nurture that coast… You can’t fully comprehend an area unless you know its cultural history. If you do have a sense of its natural and cultural history, it enriches the whole experience… I tell people exactly what kind of history they’re going to experience on a hike.” He put the book on hold for the editor position with Kirkland Patch. With a strong emphasis on breaking news coverage that required near-continuous monitoring, he had to focus on his editor role. The book sat dormant for two and a half years.
www.kirklandreporter.com “I was working 55-65 hours a week,” he said. “When you work that much you don’t have the opportunity to do anything else. You don’t want to write, you just want to kick back and relax or hike… I was just dead tired at the end of the day and didn’t have it in me to keep writing the book.” Initially given a generous freelance budget to hire additional writers, Johnston brought on Jennifer Armstrong and Julie Arnon, both of whom had writing backgrounds. A public relations specialist, Jennifer Armstrong had moved to Kirkland with her husband and two infants, having already acquired an interest in wine-making. While working on her consulting business, she wrote weekly parenting columns for Kirkland Patch. Arnon, who penned the weekly food and dining columns, was also writing a cooking blog for about several years after she had developed an interest in the health and nutritional aspect of food. “It was funny, because there were lots of mess ups that I wrote about,” she said of the blog. “I really enjoyed that process and writing.” Arnon covered the Kirkland eatery scene and the
newest restaurants. “It was a lot of experience,” she said. “And I got to know everybody in Kirkland, which from the food standpoint, it’s a small town.” An adjunct faculty member teaching art at Northeast University, Arnon also had an equal interest in painting but, like Johnston, had put it aside to focus on other endeavors. As Armstrong wrote for Patch, her family pursued its dream of opening a winery by celebrating their first commercial vintage in 2011. “We realized it was a good fit for our interest and skills and we wanted to start a family business,” she said. Arnon and Armstrong’s writing for Patch came to an end when the site’s freelance budget got slashed, according to Johnston. Johnston finally left Patch in May 2013 when he felt that the news site had veered off from its original purpose. “When they veered off of that mission, I knew I needed to get back to my book,” he said. Moving on to write for 425 Magazine, Arnon said her work required extensive use of social media, which helped inspire her, as she sought to get back into painting. “Oil painting is really what I love to do,” she said. “So
when I was trying to build up a new body of work… I was thinking about what I wanted to paint. I had a done (painted) a lot of people and wanted to try something new. I thought I should try to merge all of my worlds together.” The idea was to paint Instagram photos that chefs had posted of their meals online. “It’s interesting to take something that’s fleeting, a meal and an Instagram photo, and make it more permanent,” she said. “Not only are meals fleeting, you eat them, somebody takes a lot of time to put the presentation together and then you consume it, but everybody takes pictures of their meal and posts it to their Instagram site and Twitter, and it briefly lives on in the social media-sphere and everybody forgets about it.” One of the problems she found, however, was that not many chefs used Instagram to showcase their gastronomical talent, and among those that did were not nearly as talented photographers. “I gravitated towards warmer colors and things that have a lot of circles,” she said. “Circles and squares go really well together.” Meanwhile, the Armstrongs continued with their

winery, opening a tasting room in Woodinville in 2013. Recently, their wines have met critical acclaim from the Seattle Wine Awards, winning two double gold and one gold. Although they don’t have their own vineyard yet, contracting with vineyards in Eastern Washington to buy the grapes for their wine, she said adding one to the family winery is one of their longterm goals. “It’s been a great fun family adventure,” Armstrong said. As part of their tasting room, the Armstrongs feature different local artists as a way of recognizing their work and giving them exposure to the community. Having previously featured other work by Arnon, her most recent paintings based on Instagram food photos were done specifically for the tasting room. “It’s nice for our guests to be able to not only enjoy tasting our wines but also some time to enjoy a treat for all the senses,” Armstrong said. “It’s (Arnon’s work) beautiful, totally appropriate because she is a food writer and photographer and painter. It’s a beautiful way to express something she is so passionate about.” As for Johnston, having completed the book and shopped around for a

publisher, he was able to land a deal with Mountaineers Books. After another year of revisions and rewriting, the book was finally published in May. While he had other book signings scheduled, the Saturday event gave him the opportunity to discuss the coast in-depth with a slideshow presentation. “It’s awesome to see their success and their dream come true,” Arnon said. “That’s a hardworking dream. With Greg, he’s the same age as my dad, and so he really mentored me from a professional standpoint, but it was really cool to see progress in wanting to write this book for so long and then finally finishing it.” “The cool thing is we’ve gone different paths, but they are all three creative paths,” Johnston said. “We’re still pursuing our separate creative endeavors. It was really cool to once again join as a team. Different creative endeavors than at Patch, so it was just a lot of fun and combine our various respective pursuits.” To learn more about the Armstrong Family Winery, go to armstrongwinery.com.

Lakeview Elementary sports field will be upgraded to synthetic turf BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com
L
akeview Elementary School will be getting a new synthetic turf field as part of the city of Kirkland’s joint use agreement with the Lake Washington School District. The City Council voted at their June 2 meeting to authorize City Manager Kurt Triplett to sign a Lakeview Elementary School Restated Amendment to Joint Use Agreement with school district, which allows the city to replace the current sand-based field. The city is currently

fields, which it also maintains for the district. In 2000, the city and the school district entered into a second interlocal agreement that included schools located in Juanita, Finn Hill and Kingsgate. The agreement was amended in 2002 to include capital investment for the athletic field at schools such as Lakeview. The Lakeview field was improved through funds from the 2002 Park Levy, but because it is not irrigated the field is often unusable during rainy weather, and dust during dry months, according to a city memo.
The Kirkland’s Chamber of Commerce will host the first of three Downtown Wine Walks from 6-9 p.m. on June 26. Taste many of the finest Washington State wines while exploring Downtown Kirkland’s unique galleries and boutiques. This 21-and-over event will bring patrons on a wine adventure of local
