Potala Village developer under investigation by SEC for fraud BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com

he developer of the Potala Village project in the Lakeview neighborhood is under investigation by the federal government for allegedly misappropriating millions of dollars from overseas investors. Lobsang Dargey is being sued in federal court by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for

allegedly raising more than $125 million through sales of securities to at least 250 investors for Path America and the Potala Place development in Everett. The EB-5 visa system allows foreign nationals who invest at least $500,000 in a project that generates or preserves at least 10 jobs for U.S. workers to qualify for residency in the United States. The SEC complaint alleges that Dargey and Path America used the

The investment capital was wired to an escrow account in the United States while the administrative fee was wired to an account in Hong Kong. Then on Sept. 14, 2014, Dargey used nearly $2.5 million from the account in his and his wife’s names to purchase a home in Bellevue. The purchase was made

in the name of Bellewood Farms Trust, the beneficiaries of which are the Dargeys. The suit also alleges that Dargey withdrew about $350,000 in cash from both the Potala Tower and Potala Place accounts between October 2012 and June 2015, mostly with a debit card or at a bank or casino teller. From 2012-15, Dargey allegedly diverted $7.5 million from the Potala Farmer’s [ more POTALA page 8 ]

Tolling Division Assistant Secretary Craig Stone and WSDOT Secretary Lynn A. Peterson discuss the details surrounding the tolling for the two high occupancy lanes (HOV) on Interstate-405, which is set for Sept. 27. TJ MARTINELL, Reporter

Tolling on I-405 through Kirkland to start Sept. 27 BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com

The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) has announced it will begin tolling the two high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes on Interstate 405 from Bellevue to Lynnwood starting Sept. 27. The express toll lanes run for 17 miles from where it meets I-5 in Lynnwood to Northeast 6th Street in Bellevue - through Bothell and Kirkland. The toll rates were set by the Washington

State Transportation Commission (WSTC) earlier this year. At a press conference Thursday in Bothell, Tolling Division Assistant Secretary Craig Stone said the tolling represents 15 years of working with the community and the public to address growing traffic congestion on the Eastside. Stone and other WSDOT officials believe the toll lanes will help ease congestion and give drivers in the HOV lanes a more reliable trip. WSDOT Secretary Lynn A. Peterson added that the

lanes will also give drivers the option of taking a faster route, something which wasn’t available before. She said they expect there to still be congestion during peak hours, but that it will not happen as easily as it does now. In the meantime, Peterson said, drivers should take the time before Sept. 27 to get used to the system and get a Good to Go Pass in order to use the express toll lanes without an additional fee. “We need to be serious with our drivers,” Stone said.

“This is crunch time to get ready for Sept. 27. We want people to take action.” Drivers will also need a Flex Pass. Carpools will also have to get a transponder to place in the vehicle. So far, Stone said, they have distributed 50,000 passes, but they are looking for that number to grow in the coming weeks. Peterson said they chose Sept. 27 to start tolling because they needed to get the striping finished before the rainy season started but also give them time to test [ more 405 page 2 ]

90 percent of tolls will be less than $4. The toll rate is based on how fast vehicles in the HOV lane are traveling, with the goal of 45 miles per hour 90 percent of the time in order to meet state and federal requirements. Currently, vehicles are only traveling that speed 60 percent of the time, according to Stone, in spite of adding nine transit centers, 5,000 new park and ride parking stalls and 1,700 vanpools since 2002. Peterson expressed her confidence that tolling will allow HOV lanes to meet that 45 mph requirement. One of the most controversial aspects of WSTC’s decision for tolling concerned carpool restrictions. Between 5-9 a.m. and 3-7 p.m. on weekdays, cars with three or more persons will not have to pay, whereas before it was only two per-

the system and ensure that it worked properly. “Everything is testing out great,” Stone said. He stated that it will take six months to a year for traffic levels to fully settle down. According to Peterson, it is the 33rd express toll lane in the country and the second one in the state. The other express toll lane is on State Route 167 between Renton and Auburn. WSDOT officials have cited similar express lanes in other parts of the country, such as Miami, as evidence that tolling can relieve congestion and improve highway speeds. Toll rates for the HOV lanes will be updated every five minutes based on the average speed of each lane. The toll minimum is 75 cents and the maximum is $10, though according to Stone,

sons per vehicle to drive in the HOV lane. During other times of the weekdays and all times during the weekend, carpools will still only require two people. Opponents of the restriction, many of whom spoke at the WSTC’s public hearings earlier this year at Kirkland City Hall, claim that they will be unable to find a third person for their carpool and that the policy will drive more cars into the regular lanes, making congestion even worse. Peterson said that carpools with fewer than three people can still use the lane, but they will need to pay. Critics have said that it will take away any financial reasons to carpool in the first place. WSDOT is working with the Washington State Patrol to enforce the HOV lane restrictions. A concern of several Kirkland residents who spoke at the WSTC’s spring meetings was that the tolls would lead not only to more congestion but spillover traffic to city streets by commuters looking to avoid either the tolls or bad traffic. Stone said that they will be working closely with the cities on a daily basis to determine how the traffic impacts their major arterials. He also said that they will be adding an additional lane and that rather than cause spillover, the tolling will ease congestion in those lanes and draw commuters off city streets. The vendor handling the tolling fees for the HOV lanes is Electronic Transaction Consultants (ETC), the same vendor WSDOT has for the 520 bridge tolling. It also handles the lane systems for the State Route 167 hotlane. If drivers don’t qualify for a free Flex Pass, they can still buy one for $15 at GoodToGo.com, by calling 1-866-936-8246.

Back to school, watch out for kids

Matt Phelps

very parent knows what next week brings as kids head back to school. It is a little bit of stress, thinking about schedules, supplies, music or sports practices, etc... It is a little bit sadness, thinking about the fact that your child is one year older and a little more independent. And maybe thinking about the fact that you are getting a little older. It is also part trepidation, as you’re not sure what to expect with a new teachers and classroom makeup. It also might be a little bit of happiness and only fellow parents know what I am talking about. But one of the things that parents should not have to worry about is their child getting to school. Safe routes to school have become a big part of the city’s initiative to make Kirkland a walkable place to live. More sidewalks and even bike lanes, for the older kids, have popped up during the summer. Not having to worry that your child has a safe place to walk to school is not too much to ask these days with so many other hazardous things out there. The Kirkland Police Department does a good job of monitoring school zones and making sure that commuters do not get in too much of a hurry. The school zones are there for a reason.

cur between 3-7 p.m. Those times are when schools are dismissing kids from the classroom or when they are headed home from school-related activities. Now, more than ever, drivers need to be careful turning corners, backing out of driveways and driving through school zones. Making things worse is that the days around here will get dark and rainy as fall and winter approach. We expect that the police will be out in force next week, radar guns in hand, along streets that pass by schools. And we trust that they will hand out tickets even to those who say, “oops, sorry”

when they’re pulled over. So let’s all take a deep breath, take our foot off the gas pedal and put kids first. Slow down. AAA has some good advice for motorists: • Slow down and obey the 20 M.P.H. speed limit in school zones. • Eliminate distractions. Sometimes kids dart into the road unexpectedly. • Don’t roll through stop signs in school zones or neighborhoods.

McCleary case, an open letter to Sen. Hill and Rep. Springer Hi Andy and Larry, I would support raising the sales tax one cent with all generated revenue going directly to public schools, reducing school property taxes and eliminating levies. In addition, I would love to see a few districts experiment with a two half school year, whereby near the end of the 90 day first session, an exit exam is given covering the 180 day grade level. Those students that pass at 90 percent or more would be moved to the next grade level in the next half of the school year. In essence, there would be a longer winter break and a shorter summer break, and a chance for some students to move through the school system faster. Washington needs better schools because Washington is a very technology oriented state. With the Washington State Supreme Court ruling, politically, it will be much easier to raise the sales tax for schools. The legislature had no trouble raising gas taxes 11 cents for Bertha to benefit a few land developers and contractors in Seattle; surely you legislators have the courage to pump up public education in Washington state.

Hazards on Park Lane

Last night my husband and I decide to go and eat at one of our favorite restaurants on Park Lane. Being that it was such a lovely evening we choose to eat outside and enjoy people watching during dinner. I was horrified to see how little the parents paid attention to their children who thought of Park Lane and the new Bioswale (open drainage pit with environmentally friendly plants) as their own play ground. We saw children climb down into these and run around, throw rocks and pull at the plants all the while the parents occasionally looking over at them but not doing anything to stop it. People seem to have forgotten that with the beautiful new pedestrian friendly look of Park

Where is the new I-405 lane? Where is the lane? We were supposed to get a new lane in both directions on I-405 all the way from Bellevue to Mill Creek. We got the tolling equipment but not the lane. In fact, we are losing our two-person carpool lane. The only thing the tolls pay for is the tolling equipment. It is 100 percent a waste, complete boondoggle. It will be both more expensive and more congested on I-405. Thanks Joan McBride, you are the single biggest disaster to hit Kirkland in the past 30 years.

ormer LPGA Tour star and Kirkland native JoAnne Carner will be inducted into the Legends Hall of Fame Friday at the French Lick Springs Hotel in French Link, Ind. The induction will be held during tournament week of The Legends Championship, set for Aug. 29-30, at the Pete Dye Course at French Lick Resort. “This is an honor I will cherish for the rest of my life and it makes my life’s work seem all the more valuable to me,” Carner said. “I am thrilled to be inducted into the Legends Hall of Fame.” During a career that spanned from 1970 to 2005, Carter won 43 LPGA tournaments, and was one of the nation’s all-time top women amateur players before turning professional. She is still the only woman to have won United States Golf Association titles at the U.S. Girls’ Junior, U.S. Women’s Amateur and U.S. Women’s Open championships. Carner won the 1956 U.S. Girls’ Junior Amateur and captured five U.S. Women’s Amateur Championships (1957, 1960, 1962, 1966 and 1968). In addition, she competed on four U.S. Curtis Cup teams and remains as the last amateur to have won an LPGA Tour event with her first LPGA victory at

the 1969 Burdine’s Invitational. She won the U.S. Women’s Open in 1971 and again in 1976, and tied for second at the 1987 U.S. Women’s Open, losing in an 18-hole playoff. At the age of 65, she also became the oldest player to make the 36-hole cut at an LPGA tournament at the Kraft Nabisco Championship in 2004, as well as at the Chick-fil-A Charity Championship. Carner has been honored many times during her four decades on the LPGA Tour. She was inducted into the LPGA and World Golf Halls of Fame in 1982. She also earned the 1981 Bob Jones Award and the Golf Writers Association of America Player of the Year Award in 1982-83. In addition, Carner served as captain of the victorious U.S. team at the 1994 Solheim Cup. Carner, 74, now lives in Lake Worth, Fla. and still competes on The Legends Tour, the official senior tour of the LPGA. She has posted four top-10 finishes and played in six ISPS Handa Cup international team competitions before taking over as Team U.S.A. Captain in 2012. Carner will serve as the 2015 PING U.S. Junior Solheim Cup Team Captain in Germany in September. The Legends Hall of Fame is a permanent installment displayed year-round at West Baden Springs Hotel in French Lick and was created by

two-hour family-oriented excursions in which the guests will have the opportunity to help raise a sail, learn a sea shanty (chant or song) and even take the helm of the ship. Lady Washington is steered by a tiller, while the Chieftain features a ship’s wheel. One of the core missions is to receive hands-on maritime experience. “Some folks just prefer quieter experience or don’t like the boom of cannons,” Follansbee said. “It’s a little more quieter, little more sailing oriented.” Launched in 1989 to celebrate Washington’s 100th birthday, Lady Washington is a 112-foot tall, woodenhulled replica of one of the first U.S. flagged vessels to visit the west coast of North America. The ship

has appeared in television shows and films, including “Star Trek: Generations” and “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.” The steel-made, 103-foot topsail ketch Hawaiian Chieftain launched in 1989 and was purchased by Grays Harbor Historical Seaport Authority in 2005. Tickets for the sea battles are $75 adults, $67 students/ seniors/active military, $39 children 12 and under. Adventure sail tickets are $47 adults, $39 children 12 and under. Tickets for the evening sails are $45 all ages. Visit www.historicalseaport.org to purchase online or call 800-200-5239 during business hours to purchase tickets. Carillon Point Marina is located at 2150 Carillon Point.

hose eager to participate in a mock sea-battle or enjoy an evening sail around Lake Washington, the Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain will offer both during their week in Kirkland. The two ships will be at Carillon Point Marina Sept. 1-8 for walk-on tours, public sailing excursions and educational programs for 4-6th grade students. Their Kirkland visits are among the most popular of their stops, and demand has gotten to the point that the Grays Harbor Historical Seaport Authority, which owns the two ships, is looking at having them possibly stay an additional week next year, according to Communications

Director Joseph Follansbee. “We have more demand than we can meet,” he said. As part of their visit, the two ships will engage in numerous three-hour sea battles featuring cannon fire between the ships in an effort to recreate a typical 18th century naval skirmish. The ships fire real cannons with real gunpowder, but no cannon balls. “We will (also) encourage the passengers to taunt their adversaries,” Follansbee said. “The idea is to get the passengers and guests involved with what’s happening on the vessel. They can actively participate or just watch. There’s a variety of ways to participate. It depends on what the guests are comfortable with.” The ships will also offer adventure and evening sails,

Man arrested after woman falls off roof of moving car at Juanita Beach Park BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com

man was arrested on the morning of Aug. 20 by Kirkland police after a woman fell off the roof of his car at Juanita Beach Park. Kirkland Police Department officers were patrolling Juanita Beach Park

when they observed a vehicle enter the park with one female laying on the roof and another female standing halfway out of the sunroof. The officers pursued the vehicle on foot attempting to stop it, concerned for the safety of the females. As the vehicle made a sudden turn,

the female laying on the roof was ejected and sustained serious injuries, and was transported to Harborview Medical Center. The male driver of the vehicle was arrested for investigation of vehicular assault and driving under the influence (DUI).

[ POTALA from page 1] Market and Potala Tower accounts to an account in the name of Potala Village Kirkland. In August 2014, Dargey allegedly used $4.25 million of those funds to purchase property in Kirkland. The SEC has asked a federal judge to approve a restraining order prohibiting Dargey or his companies from raising more money from investors, selling any securities of any business interest they own, and freezing all their assets including the Potala Village site in Kirkland. The SEC complaint and request freezes Dargey’s financial assets and brings new uncertainty over the fate of the Potala Village project. The complaint alleges that the limited liability company “maintains a bank account into which proceeds raised from defrauded investors are deposited and “also owns property purchased with funds raised from defrauded investors.” The government is seeking an accounting of all money received from investors, an order prohibiting the alteration or destruction of books and records, an order to return any investors’ funds that have been transferred overseas back to the United States and unspecific civil monetary penalties. The complaint comes after Dargey’s legal wrangling with the city of Kirkland over vested rights to specific zoning regulations concluded when the State Supreme Court denied a request on Feb. 4 to review an Aug. 25, 2014 ruling by the Washington Court of Appeals, Division I. The development recently had a design response conference with the city of Kirkland Resign Review Board (DRB) Monday on Potala Village’s design for the site at 1006 Lake Street South. Another meeting is scheduled for Oct. 19. Unless Dargey pulls out of the design review phase altogether, however, the legal complaints won’t affect that part of the project, according to Senior Planner Angela Ruggeri. “At this point, they need to receive their design revisions

in order to go ahead with that (design review process),” she said. “The board told them some things to do, and if we receive their changes, then we’ll move ahead.” “I would say that the question is more for the applicant,” city of Kirkland Planning Director Eric Shields said. “Will it affect their ability to move forward? Will they still have the desire or financial wherewithal to pay consultants?” The proposed project would be a 138,434-squarefoot, three-story building that would include approximately 7,000 square feet of ground floor retail space on the north and south corners of the building, as well as 58 residential units on the second and third floor. Kirkland City Manager Kurt Triplett stated that the DRB will need the updated materials from the developer three weeks prior to the next meeting and whether they receive them or not will indicate if things move forward. “We’ll know by the end of September whether there’s still a project,” he said. “I think we’re still in a wait and see mode.” At the moment, however, the site remains undeveloped. Kirkland City Councilmember Toby Nixon said his biggest fear is that, irrespective of whether the complaint turns out to be true or not, the legal process will leave the site as it is, an eyesore for the local neighborhood, for an indefinite amount of time. The scenario would be similar to that of the sevenand-a-half story Bel Lago condominiums on Northeast Juanita Drive overlooking Lake Washington. Constructed in 2006, it remained unfinished for years and was the source of grief for nearby residents until it was finally bought by Legacy Homes of Washington in April 2012. “I hope if he (Dargey) does get shut down… that some other developer would be able to move forward with an attractive project on that site that meets the needs of the community quickly,” Nixon said. “I just don’t want it to sit in a half-built or big-hole-inthe-wall state for a long time.” Additionally, Nixon said

is he concerned about the potential environmental impacts it would have on the neighborhood if left alone. “My main concern is the property be left in a physically safe condition, that it be in an environmentally sound condition, that there is not toxics exposed and that kind of thing,” he said. “I want it to be left in a tolerable condition. It looks ugly right now, but the problem is I have no idea what authority the city has on to any of that.” Triplett, however, said he is confident that Kirkland’s booming real estate market will entice a new developer to take over if Dargey cannot move forward. “I think right now people are obviously very bullish on Kirkland,” he said. “They’re snapping up property.” In the meantime, he added, Potala has completed the environment remediation. “Certainly none of us want to see it stay an empty property, but it’s not a whole lot different from what it was before,” he said. “Clearly we would like to see something positive happen at that site… there are tools in our code to make sure the site is not becoming a dilapidated place.” Karen Levenson, spokesperson for the group of neighbors who have organized against the original Potala Village project, released the following statement: “My concen has been that Lobsang Dargey has not been fair to the Kirkland Citizens. I have been concerned by the feeling that he is manipulating and misinterpreting Kirkland’s codes in ways that were not intended by past councils or the citizens. I have also been concerned by what seems to be his ability to get some staff and city council members to support his version of reality in a way that potentially harms the neighborhoods where Kirkland citizens have invested their life savings into their family home.” Dargey and Path America declined comment to Sound Publishing.
