Digging into Redmond’s past Archeologist, team discover 10,000-year-old stone tools underneath peat along Bear Creek 10,000-YEAR-OLD TOOLS
ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com
Redmond resident Gene Schaffer, who minored in anthropology in college, often wonders what his city and the greater Seattle area looked like in the past. “I wish there was ways I could turn back the clock a mere 200 years to see what it was like, because this (Redmond) was all solid trees and undeveloped… but we just looked at something from 10,000 years ago,” he said. As he exited the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center auditorium last Saturday, Schaffer’s eyes widened a bit as he discussed the presentation he just witnessed by Dr. Robert Kopperl, a veteran archeologist who works for SWCA Environmental Consultants.
In front of a packed house of about 275 people at the Redmond Historical Society’s Saturday Speaker Series, Kopperl dug into his lecture about he and his team discovering more than 4,000 stone artifacts — including tools, flakes, scrapers, spear points and more — in 2009 and 2013 underneath peat along Bear Creek during the city’s salmon restoration project. It is a site where arrowheads and other hunting tools were made some 10,000 years ago. “It is the oldest archeological site with stone tools that has so far been investigated by archeologists in the Puget Lowlands and the Washington Straits region,” Kopperl told the crowd. In an earlier report, Kopperl noted that the site is the first opportunity to study
With a photo of parts of 10,000-year-old stone tools on the screen behind him, Dr. Robert Kopperl discusses the major find in Redmond with the crowd at last Saturday’s event at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center. ANDY NYSTROM, Redmond Reporter how American Indians made the Puget Lowlands their home at the end of the last ice age, some 16,000 years ago. Mayor John Marchione told the crowd that the City of Redmond and its partners planned and worked to complete the rehabilitation of the lower
Bear Creek since 1990. The 3,000-foot project near State Route 520 was relocated from a mostly straight, channelized stream to a meandering run to support healthy and diverse fish fronts, including the largest wild Chinook salmon population in the Sammamish basin.
Constantine, others discuss climate change SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
Climate change is no longer just a thing of the future — it is here now. This was the message King County Executive Dow Constantine and members of county staff delivered during a media tour last Friday. The tour focused on the local impacts of climate change. Constantine said indicators such as low snow pack in the mountains, the high heat this past summer and more frequent and devastating wildfires throughout the state are just a dress rehearsal of what’s to come. “The trends my staff have looked at are troubling,”
Constantine said.
DEATH BY A THOUSAND CUTS
The tour began at Sixty Acres Park in unincorporated King County near Redmond, with county scientists discussing the Sammamish River. Jim Simmonds, supervisor of water quality and water quantity for King County, said the county has been tracking stream flows and measuring water pollution for “many years.” He said when they identify any sort of pollution, they can take action. This year, Simmonds said they have seen some “alarming trends” as many streams they have been monitoring
Kopperl noted that their discovery happened during a routine environmental compliance project for the city to survey the waterways and the site. “We were thrilled by the significance of this discovery that teaches us about Redmond’s [ more TOOLS page 13 ]

After a city levy addressing public safety — among other issues — failed in August, the Redmond Police Department (RPD) must now figure out how to maintain a level of service that will keep up with the increasing demand for calls for service. Police Chief Ron
Gibson said since 2012, calls for service have increased by about 5 percent each year and 2015 is on track to continue this trend. “The demands for service are not decreasing,” he said. Gibson said they are fine through 2016 but they will have to figure things out after that. Currently, he said, the city’s finance department is doing an analysis to see how much the city’s current levy — which passed in 2007 — can cover and sustain the RPD’s needs. The 2007 levy allowed RPD to add 17 positions to [ more CRIME page 16]

NerdWallet analyzed 126 places in Washington, each with a population of at least 5,000, and Redmond was named the best place to start a business. Cities with less than 500 businesses were excluded, and they calculated the overall score for each location based on the city’s business climate and economic health using data from the U.S. Census Bureau. To determine a community’s business climate, they looked at average revenue, percentage of businesses with paid employees and
the number of businesses per 100 people. Most small businesses in the U.S. are sole proprietorships without paid employees. To determine a community’s economic health, they looked at median annual income, median annual housing costs and the unemployment rate. 1. Redmond According to the study, “Redmond’s 6,200 companies each see an average annual revenue of over $7.3 million, higher than any community on our list. That figure gets a boost from companies such as Microsoft, Nintendo of America and Data I/O, which are all headquartered in Redmond. The presence of those companies and the talent they attract also give a boost to smaller enter-

visited parks in the City of Redmond park system. A new, updated restroom will be constructed this fall to handle a large number of visitors to the park. The Redmond Parks and Recreation Department will begin the construction process in mid-September with the removal of the existing silo restroom, followed by installation of a new building. The old restroom has become increasingly difficult to maintain and has to be closed every winter due to the lack of heat in the building. Construction is scheduled to be completed in early November. The new building is a prefabricated structure built in a factory off-site. The building foundation and utility preparation will take approximately four weeks, and then the building is delivered to the site and installed in three days. The restroom will include men’s, women’s and family facilities, as well as an outdoor hot water hand washing facility for children to use after they’ve visited the farm park’s resident animals. A prefabricated structure was selected to save costs, but more importantly to limit impacts to park visitors.
Redmond Town Center will present its Superhero Block Party from noon to 5 p.m. tomorrow. The family-friendly event will feature: • Everyday superheroes • Bouncy house and bouncy slide • Gotham photo booth • Attendees can create a superhero mask • Agility games • Pinkabella Superhero cupcakes • Recess Monkey will perform at 4 p.m. For more information, visit http://redmondtown center.com/custom/block party.php Also tomorrow, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Hallowbaloo! will take place at Redmond Town Center.

Missing east Redmond girl found safe after taking bus to Seattle ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com
and that’s why KCSO didn’t release an Amber Alert. Abbey’s father called the KCSO to report her missing after conducting his own search starting at about 4 p.m. at their house in east Redmond. KCSO called out search and rescue, tracking dogs and a helicopter to assist in the search. In Seattle, “She was taken to the West Precinct where she was evaluated and they determined she was unharmed,” said Seo in a press release Tuesday morning. “After the Seattle
police notified the Sheriff ’s Office that Abbey was safe, our detectives went to Seattle to interview her and account for the time she was missing.” Seo said Abbey is fine and is back with her family. He added that the next step will be a “discussion with the parents and child” about safety and staying close to home. “Detectives, deputies, search-and-rescue personnel believe this 10-year-old was very lucky and are relieved we did not have a tragic ending to this dangerous situation,” Seo said.
A 10-year-old girl who was reported missing in east Redmond on Monday was found safe when she walked into a downtown Seattle business at about 9:20 p.m. that night. Store employees at the business near 8th Avenue and Olive Street called the Seattle Police Department after locating the girl.

Redmond High deserves a well-funded, appreciated student newspaper As adviser to The Blaze newspaper for most of my 34 years at Redmond High School (RHS), I was very interested in the Redmond Reporter’s article about the newspaper’s financial and structural problems. I commend Ms. Badger and the students for keeping the paper alive in some form. On the other hand, it’s with a heavy heart that I feel a lack of commitment in the school as a whole for the Blaze. It has been an integral part of the high school since it opened in 1964. If you want to read history of RHS, go through all the old issues of the Blaze. No other record of school activities, athletics and opinions exists in such detail. Additionally, the experience that the Blaze gave to hundreds of students can’t be replaced. Some went on to careers in journalism, advertising or photography. Others gained confidence by being part of a student-run club that was the mouthpiece of RHS. Students have few places to really express their opinions these days. The Blaze offered them that opportunity and educated them on the freedoms and responsibilities of their First Amendment rights. I enjoyed my tenure at RHS because Doug Kimball

the school gave students a well-rounded education. Current times seem to place so much focus on math and science that some of the critical liberal arts elements of the curriculum take a back seat to what’s currently in vogue. This is a mistake. I encourage the school’s administration and ASB to bring back the former funding sources for the Blaze. When I was adviser, the Blaze was a class during the regular school day and the paper was published at least eight times a year. The ASB paid for two thirds of the cost of the Blaze and the staff of the paper raised the other third
through ads and fundraisers. I don’t consider this a huge burden on ASB resources. Rather, it demonstrates a commitment to the importance of school journalism. A school of Redmond’s stature deserves a well-funded, appreciated student newspaper that is part of the school curriculum. To not do this devalues the importance of the First Amendment and denies students a critical experience in their education.
Doug Kimball was a Redmond High teacher from 1974-2008.

Thanks for Hague for helping Redmond A huge thank you is in order for Jane Hague, our King County Council member. Jane fought for and received funding for Redmond to help eliminate flooding along West Lake Sammamish. This will dramatically keep roads in that area free of water and debris during heavy rains. Last week’s storm was a reminder to all of us of the serious need for this critical upgrade. Finally, we will have a storm system that keeps our roads safe and congestion free during heavy rains. Jane, thank you for recognizing our city needed help and thank you for delivering the relief we need.

Turn a passion for education into action The Lake Washington Schools Foundation Board of Trustees is a passionate group of energetic volunteers. Our dedication to public education has brought us together to raise over $2 million since 2005, supporting opportunities for academic excellence and success for all students in the Lake Washington School District. This year we are expanding our board to 15 trustees. If you share our passion for public education, academic excellence and success for all students, we’re looking for you. Help us continue investing in districtwide academic programs, which provide
equal access for all – preparing students for success in academics and in life. Ideal candidates will have PTSA leadership and nonprofit board experience, a history of volunteer experience in our schools (or in schools where you have lived previously) and the time and energy to contribute to a growing nonprofit organization. We value diversity in all its forms, but especially in background, experience, expertise and approaches to problem solving. The board of trustees is responsible for ensuring that the Foundation does the best work possible in pursuit of its goals. We make decisions on policies, allocate funds, observe our grants in action and work to share our story throughout the community.

RPD to offer fraud-prevention class on Wednesday The Redmond Police Department (RPD) is offering a fraud-prevention class for people to learn about the most common scams and their warning signs. The class, taught by one RPD detectives and a crime analyst, will also teach attendees about the most common types of fraud and how to protect themselves. According to the FBI, identity theft occurs when someone unlawfully obtains another’s personal information and uses it to commit theft or fraud. Identity theft is a growing concern today with about seven percent of the U.S. population ages 16 and older falling victim to this crime trend. Law enforcement has been dealing with criminals faking IDs and performing scams for decades. But with technology expanding at such a rapid rate, the threat is more pervasive and the scams more sophisticated than ever. RPD’s fraud prevention-class will be from 6:30-8:30 p.m. on Wednesday at the Redmond Senior Center, 8703 160th Ave. N.E., room 109.

www.redmond-reporter.com benefits are greatest. [ LETTERS from page 4] the theme that more Syrian immigrants should be resettled in the Seattle area as is being done in Europe. While everyone agrees that true refugees from war are needy, not all the immigrants flooding into Europe are war refugees; in fact, many are from Pakistan, Turkey, Mesopotamia, North Africa and other countries; they destroy their passports and claim to be Syrian refugees. These are economic immigrants who are heading to countries that provide the greatest benefits. They push forward to France, Germany and the Netherlands, where economic
Our authorities have no ability to examine each immigrant. The vast majority of the immigrants are young men, who appear fit and well fed. They are overwhelmingly Muslim. It is no coincidence that almost all terrorist attacks in the U.S., including the ones that have been thwarted by the authorities, have been perpetrated by Muslim young men. Inviting more Muslim immigrants is very costly to the local taxpayers over the course of many years that it takes to resettle them, and it is foolhardy to increase the number of potential terrorists in our
midst. A moratorium on Muslim immigrants should be initiated today because of the extreme cost and the threat to America. Instead, the Gulf States like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait should accept their Arabic speaking brothers and sisters.

We are on the small end of the information funnel Our knowledge of the world is like a funnel and the information that is given to us is the end, which is small, and the
amount of knowledge and information in this world is the wide opening. The information that is filtered to us reminds me of when you are with a group of people and they are laughing and you are clueless to the humor. Then someone says to you that it is an inside joke and you are on the outside. We are on the outside of the knowledge of how the world works, and not privy to the inside information.

Council discusses traffic, affordable housing and more in study session SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
At its study session meeting on Sept. 8, Redmond City Council followed up on a number of city issues that have been on the docket, off and on, for the last few years.
TRAFFIC ON 166TH
The first item they discussed was the rechannelization project on 166th Avenue Northeast, which
was completed about a year ago. “166th has been controversial,” council member Hank Myers acknowledged. As previously reported, prior to the project’s completion, residents and commuters had expressed both support for and opposition against the rechannelization. Myers said one of the issues they have run into since the project was
completed last year was some of the medians and islands in the middle lanes of the street. These barriers were installed to prevent people from driving in the center lanes and using them as “express lanes.” However, Myers said, some islands and medians inhibited people from even turning onto 166th Avenue Northeast, from either side of the road and council has received

could help if they approached state lawmakers. He said they could show that some of the traffic on the city’s arterial roads is “pass-through” traffic and it would give lawmakers a reason to build up the regional road network.
MARIJUANA UPDATE
Council also revisited marijuana in the city. Since marijuana was legalized statewide, the city has had a moratorium on the issue — not creating any sort of policy while staff researched the law. Myers said Initiative 502 first passed in November 2012, and some of the restrictions and definitions written into the law have been adjusted and clarified. Some of those adjustments has been to zoning policies. Myers said a marijuana-related business still needs to be at least 1,000 feet away from schools and parks, but with the latter, it would be parks with playgrounds — where they know children
will be. He noted that when I-502 passed, a common tactic some cities took to prevent marijuana businesses to open within their jurisdictions was to create and rename certain areas as “parks” so a business would not be able to open. Myers said according to election data in 2012, 62 percent of voters in Redmond voted “yes” on I-502, which warrants the city and council to look seriously into the issue. He said the Planning Commission is currently reviewing the issue to see what can be done in Redmond and are scheduled to have something to present to council by late winter or early spring 2016.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
At last week’s study session, council also discussed affordable housing within the city. Myers said in developing the city’s second urban center in Overlake (the first being in down[ more COUNCIL page 16 ]

complaints on the topic from residents since the project’s completion. As a result, Myers said a couple of these barriers have since been removed. Rob Crittenden with the city’s Public Works Department was in attendance to share some of city staff ’s findings on how the rechannelization has affected traffic along the road — one of which was regarding traffic speeds. He discussed some of the dips they observed — which occurred before and after school as well as during rush hour. Council also discussed the traffic situations throughout the local area. Council member John Stilin noted that not all of the drivers are from Redmond — many are probably from surrounding cities, just trying to deal with traffic and driving through Redmond to get where they are going.

Event set for tomorrow in Redmond SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
This weekend, members of the Redmond and greater Eastside communities will come together to get their collective groove on at the inaugural World Dance Party (WDP) Eastside. Gee Randhawa, a volunteer member of the WDP Eastside planning committee, said there is a lot of diversity on the Eastside — with populations representing various parts of the world, including Europe, South America, Asia and more — and the goal of WDP Eastside is to integrate those different cultures and encourage inclusion in the community through dance. “Music (and dance) is a fantastic way (to bring people together),” she said. At tomorrow’s event, attendees will have the opportunity to learn different cultural dances — salsa, Bollywood and flamenco — taught by volunteer instructors from throughout the Eastside. In addition, Bonnie Wang from Seattle will be teaching Zumba and Kathy Hokulani of
Shoreline will be teaching hula. Each dance lesson will last 20 minutes. In addition to the dancing, attendees are asked to bring a potluck dish to share at this free event. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/ wdpeastside. The idea for WDP Eastside, which will be from 6:30-9 p.m. at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center, 16600 N.E. 80th St., came from WDP events that have been held in Seattle in the last few years.
CULTURAL CONNECTIONS
According to the WDP Eastside Facebook page, those WDP events in Seattle came about after community members expressed concerns regarding the lack of connections between elders and young people, and between neighbors of different ethnicities. The City of Redmond was dealing with similar issues. Steve Hitch, another planning committee member who also works for the city, said internally, they have been looking at ways to be more culturally inclusive to better serve its citizens. He said they discovered WDP after another city staff member attended an event in Seattle and thought it would be great to bring to the Eastside. [ more DANCE page 8 ]

Like kids in a candy store. Life sure is sweet. And it can be even more so when you live at Fairwinds - Redmond Retirement Community. Move in and you’ll have more choices than you can shake a pixie stick at. Choices in dining, travel, socializing, events, fitness and more. Let us show you at a complimentary lunch and tour. Call (425) 558-4700 now to schedule. Retirement truly can be sweeter than a sugar-coated, chocolate- dipped, candy-covered honey drop. Which is pretty sweet indeed.
In addition to learning the different cultural dances, Nguyen said the dance instructors will also share the art and history of their respective dances. Jackie Villegas-MacLin, who will be teaching flamenco dancing on Saturday, said when she was first approached about the event, she really liked the idea of sharing her art with others. She said flamenco fits well with WDP Eastside, as oftentimes in Spain, there are gatherings that bring together families and community members of all ages to dance. “I’m very excited to be a part of this,” said Villegas-MacLin, who is the director of Jacque-
lina’s Dances of Spain in Kirkland. For Arundhati Baitmangalkar, her Bollywood style of dancing is about having fun. Bollywood stems from the Indian film industry of the same name. She said in those films, there are many musical numbers. “We’ll just burst out into song anywhere,” she said. “It’s just fun.” Baitmangalkar, owner of Bollyworks dance studio in Redmond, described Bollywood dancing as high energy and something for all ages. She also added that the style has become very popular for exercising as some gyms now offer Bollywood fitness classes.
EASY INTRODUCTIONS TO DANCE
In addition to educating people about different cultures and showing how dance can be a form of exercise, Natasha Maltseva said WDP Eastside is also an opportunity to show people that dancing doesn’t have to be hard. Maltseva, who owns LaVida Dance & Yoga in Bellevue and will be teaching salsa on Saturday, said WDP Eastside is an easy way for people who are curious to just
give dancing a try. Villegas-MacLin and Baitmangalkar agreed. They said for those who may find the idea of dancing scary or intimidating, there are no expectations at Saturday’s event. Nguyen noted that it will be an all-ages event so everyone will be at different dancing levels and abilities. “There’s a place for everyone in dance,” said Villegas-MacLin. Baitmangalkar added, “If you have fun, if you move a little bit, that is a success.”
THE FIRST OF MANY
While Saturday’s event is just the first WDP Eastside event, Randhawa said it will not be their last. She said they have plans to hold future events, with plans for the next one in spring 2016. Randhawa said they plan to hold events throughout the Eastside, not just in Redmond. In addition, she said they plan to include other styles of dance such as Appalachian clogging and Chinese dancing — both of which they discovered while planning Saturday’s event but were unable to showcase due to scheduling conflicts.

...obituaries Harriet Wilma Reaper Ostrander
Harriet Wilma Reaper Ostrander passed away on September 5, 2015, at Overlake Hospital four days after suffering a sudden, massive hemorrhagic stroke at the age of 91. She was laughing, happy, and sharp as a tack until the moment of the stroke. Harriet was truly the most positive and optimistic angel and loved to laugh and see the good in every person and situation. She made everyone feel good around her and only wanted health and happiness for her family and friends. Harriet was born March 31, 1924, in St. Louis, Missouri, to Harry and Wilhelmina (Minnie) Reaper. She had many fond memories of North St. Louis, O’Bear Avenue, Grand Avenue, the streetcar to downtown, dancing, the “41” club, and the Grand Avenue water tower. Harriet graduated from Hadley Technical High School and went to work for law offices in the historic Chemical Building in downtown St. Louis. She met her future husband, James Oliver Ostrander, Sr., when he visited his friend across the street from her house when she was 14. He was four years older than her and probably didn’t pay much attention to the little girl with a crush on him. Once Harriet hit her later teens, however, “Jimmie” took notice. Jimmie went off to World War II, and Harriet went to work for the Ordinance Depot in St. Louis to support the war effort. Once apart, their relationship deepened, and many love letters were exchanged between the two during the war. Jimmie returned from the war, resuming his job at Swift & Co., and marrying his sweetheart shortly thereafter. Once son Jim, Jr., was born, Harriet became a homemaker, and shortly thereafter Jim accepted the first of many transfers to Milwaukee,Wisconsin, where daughter Karen was born. Jim was subsequently promoted to even better positions and was then transferred from Milwaukee to Pennsylvania; then onward to California;Yakima,Washington; Oklahoma; Nebraska; and Texas. When it came time to retire, they chose to move back to Washington where their son and daughter lived, and where grandchildren were starting to be born. They were very happy in Redmond, Washington. Harriet’s beloved “Jimmie” passed away in 1992. Eventually, Harriet, daughter Karen, David and Harriet’s three adored grandchildren moved in together in a large home in Redmond. Harriet enriched their lives tremendously and the time together was cherished by all. Harriet is survived by daughter Karen, David (spouse) Underwood, son Jim Ostrander, Jr., Connie (spouse), grandchildren Trenton, Collin and Kolton Underwood, sister Corinne Fossell, nieces and nephews, and many other family and friends. Services were held in St Louis, Missouri. Harriet’s final resting place is next to her beloved Jimmie at Sunset Memorial Park in St. Louis. Donations in Harriet’s name may be made online to St. Jude Children’s Hospital. Please visit www.legacy.com to leave an online tribute.

LWSD is now on the honor roll for organizations named a Best Workplace more than five consecutive years. Increased recycling and waste prevention lowers the amount of garbage produced, which helps the district save money on garbage service. LWSD works to right-size service. It uses smaller garbage containers and less frequent garbage pickups. The district also puts garbage services on hold during school breaks. In the 2014-15 school year, the district saved more than $35,000 in waste costs due to right sizing, holding pickups over breaks and catching billing errors.

Native American heritage,� Marchione said.
THE DIG BEGINS
When they began the cultural resource survey in 2008, Kopperl said they knew they had a good chance of finding artifacts because they were working near Marymoor Park, a site where American Indian archeological evidence was found that dates back 5,000 years or more. The team’s survey protocol consisted of using a combination of digging by hand with brushes and trowels and also utilizing backhoes. “We had to find a balance of being able to get down into those deeper older sediments, and try to get down to all the cobbles and gravel that was laid down when the glaciers moved back when they were treated at the end of the ice age,� Kopperl said. Kopperl said while finding the artifacts is exciting, it’s the sequence of dirt in which they’re found that is interesting, as well. The team discovered a dirt layer cake consisting of sand (alluvium) at
the top, a thick layer of diatomaceous earth and then peat on the bottom. In one of the two digs, they found a thin sandy layer below the peat and above the glacial outwash. As far as how deep the archeologists dug, Kopperl could only reveal that “the creek rehabilitation project involved excavating the new channel about eight feet below the floodplain, and our work was conducted within the depth of ground disturbance,� in a follow-up email to the Reporter. In one dig, the peat was radiocarbon-dated to about 9,000 years old, and when they found artifacts — including the tip of a projectile point — below the peat and above the glacial outwash in the next dig, Kopperl told city officials they might be 10,000 years old or more. Luminescence dating at a University of Washington lab also corroborated their radiocarbon dating.
ABOUT THE ARTIFACTS
When Kopperl and his team — who dug 425 square meters — found artifacts, they handled
them with gloves and placed them in foil to be sent to a lab for protein and residue analysis. One of the tools had the remains of animal residue on it, possibly bison, bear, deer, elk or sheep. Kopperl said most of the artifacts they found were made from different kinds of metamorphic rock, and volcanic rock such as basalt. A smaller number of artifacts found at the site were made of chert and quartz and make more durable and sharper cutting tools. To Kopperl’s delight, they found one bone that has the shape and texture of a salmonid fish. He didn’t think it was possible they would find a bone because of preservation conditions. The City of Redmond and Kopperl’s team worked closely so that the city could complete its project on time and give the archeologist and crew room to dig and preserve history. There was also a legal obligation for the city to consult with the Snoqualmie, Muckleshoot, Stillaguamish and Tulalip tribes under federal law. Additionally, cultural resources representa-
tives of the Muckleshoot and Snoqualmie tribes worked closely with the city and other government agencies to ensure that portions of the site were either protected or studied. The artifacts are still being analyzed in a Seattle lab, and when that process is completed, Kopperl said the Muckleshoot tribal facility may put the tools on display. Kopperl and crew also found a few other
artifacts and charcoal at the site, but nothing as significant as the stone tools. They were hoping to find the remains of structures like tents or campfire sites, but those relics weren’t located. Redmond resident Marie Healy said she found it interesting to get a glimpse into the far distant past and the people who inhabited the area. “You find pictures in your mind of, ‘What were they doing?’ I feel
this showed us a little bit. I hope they (do) further diggings and (find) information that can tell us more about the people,� she said. During the end of Kopperl’s presentation, one man in the crowd barked, “Keep digging — you’ll find the Redmond Man and Redmond Woman,� in reference to Kennewick Man, the skeletal remains of a prehistoric Paleoamerican man found on a Columbia River bank.

It’s More Than Retirement. It’s Five-Star Fun.
[14] September 18, 2015 Debra Bouchard, a water quality planner for the county, said the ideal water temperature is 60.8 degrees Fahrenheit. She said the area streams have been out of compliance since May as on average, the water has been about 78 degrees. For salmon, anything warmer than 62.6 degrees becomes stressful. Kollin Higgins, an environmental scientist for King County, said this can lead to the fish stopping their migration. In addition, the warmer temperature increases fish’s metabolism, which makes them breathe faster and bring toxins into the water more quickly. This leads to more fish that are runts as they are unable to grow to their full size, Higgins said. With higher temperatures, as well as lower water levels, he said contaminants in the water become more concentrated. The fish become
concentrated and crowded, as well, since there is less water for them to swim in — leading to more diseases being transmitted among the fish. In addition, Higgins said warmer water contains more dissolved oxygen, which is not good for fish, either. Higgins said there is not one single thing that is inhibiting the salmon population recovery process — all of these aspects are affecting it. He described it as “death by a thousand cuts,” adding that climate change just makes those cuts deeper.
THOSE MOST AFFECTED
In addition to affecting local fish and wildlife, the impacts of climate change also affects people. Beth Lipton with Public Health - Seattle & King County said one way people are affected is an increase in insect-borne diseases. She said they are seeing more diseases
in the western hemisphere that have not been seen here before such as Dengue fever, though it is the warmer-climate areas such as the southern part of the country that is seeing these illnesses. In addition, she said the most vulnerable populations feel the effects of climate change the most. For example, those with mental health issues can become more stressed in more extreme weather — especially in cases in which they are displaced by disasters such as flooding or wildfires. Climate change has also led the county’s office of emergency management (OEM) to change the way it operates. “This challenge is a challenge of scale and requires a comprehensive approach,” Constantine said. OEM Director Walt Hubbard said one of the actions they have taken include adjusting the educational Reach
2.7 Million
information they provide to the public and making sure they share as much with the community as possible.
REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE — WATER
During last Friday’s tour, Constantine said with these impacts of climate change, “there’s less margin of error” when it comes to taking action. And some of those actions to keep water temperatures low include planting trees along riverbanks to provide shade for the waterways. In addition, Constantine said King County has a recycled-water program, which provides a reliable and sustainable, drought-proof system that can be used to water play fields, golf courses and more as well as for irrigation. “As long as people keep flushing, we’ll have this resource,” he said. Although the water is highly treated, it is not drink-

able, Constantine and other county staff stressed. One example in which this system is currently used is the fields at Sixty Acres Park. Prior to implementing this system, water was being pulled from the ground, which in turn, would lower the area river and stream levels. Kristina Westbrook, recycled water program manager for the county, said by using recycled water, they are saving about 40 million gallons of water that can now remain in the ground and consequently, in the rivers. She added that in addition to saving water, the recycled water contains nitrate and phosphorus, which helps the county save on having to purchase and use fertilizer.
YOU, TOO, CAN PREVENT FOREST FIRES
In the final leg of last Friday’s tour, Constantine and county staff showed how citizens living in more rural and wooded areas can help prevent wildfires and protect their property by visiting Woodinville resident Jan Hunt. Hunt and her neighbors’ homes are situated within a wooded area. When she moved in about 20 years ago, she knew something had to be done about the woods. “I knew things weren’t healthy, but I didn’t know what to do about it,” she said. Eventually, Hunt sought out the county to learn what she
JOIN US FOR
and her neighbors could do to keep their neighborhood and properties safe from wildfires. Linda Vane with the county’s forestry program said the county can work with forest landowners to educate them on how to keep the plant life on their land healthy, which makes them more resilient in the case of a wildfire. Some of the measures Hunt took included replacing her lawn with natural vegetation, cutting trees back about five to six feet from her home, pruning and maintaining the vegetation on her property and keeping her roof as clean as possible from dried pine needles as those can act as fuel for fires. Vane added that a forest with a dense canopy can be dangerous as sun cannot shine through and that leaves a lot of dead material — or fuel for fires — on the forest floor. In addition, she said adding compost to the soil helps it retain water better, which causes things to decay faster, leading to less dead material on the forest floor. While the county can help residents come up with plans and strategies to keep themselves and their properties safe, Vane said they can also help connect residents with tax-reduction programs, grant opportunities and other money-saving ways to accomplish these goals.

Redmond High girls are playing strong, confident soccer ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com
“Be Savage.” Two simple words, but they speak volumes in the Redmond High girls soccer lexicon when they take the field this season. Heidi Metzger, one of the Mustangs’ senior tri-captains, said first-year coach Stacy Masters supplied the team mantra. “We just really want to be aggressive and get after it. It’s basically about giving it our all and not giving up, to keep striving after what we want,” said defender Metzger, noting that the Mustangs are also a classy bunch of players. Redmond displayed that game plan in its preseason victories over Stanwood (20) and Cascade (3-0) with goals from senior Isabelle Cherrington, junior Monet Marshall, sophomores Nicki Chan and Natalie Daub and freshman Maria Tauber. Freshman Jessica Quenneville is the Mustangs’ starting goalkeeper and coach Masters said the youngster is a hard worker and confident in her ability. “I think we have the potential to do really great things. We have some really good freshmen, so that will be good for years to come.
Football Mount Si High defeated Redmond High, 21-7, in football action last Friday night. The home Wildcats led 14-0 at halftime and 21-0 after three quarters. With 3:24 left in the contest, Redmond quarterback Nick Swanson threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Parker Narloch, who also converted

Added Masters of her team, which finished 4-10 last season: “They’re really strong. They play with a lot of grit and a lot of heart. We’re really looking to work on the chemistry to go with the talent, to hopefully create something cohesive and

She played select ball as a kid, was on the Sammamish High varsity squad and nowadays plays on a women’s recreational team and a co-ed squad with her husband.

It can transfer to what they do in college and beyond that,” she said.

player who aims to play a big role for the Mustangs this season. “I would like to be a force on the team, yet still someone that people can talk to and not be too intimidated of,” she said. “We work really hard, but at the same time, we enjoy it.” Cherrington pitched in, noting that Getchell has a calm voice and keeps the Mustangs focused. Both girls know each other well, coming into the Redmond program young and tasting a 4A Kingco championship during their first season. For Metzger, it’s her first year on varsity and she’s excited to be at the next level and playing alongside a diligent squad. Redmond is a lively team, as well, as evidenced from the players’ laughter before Monday’s practice and notching the spirit award at last Sunday’s Make A Wish 5K at Marymoor Park. “They were there encouraging the walkers (and) made signs for kids who had wishes,” said Masters, whose husband, Brad, is the Mustangs’ assistant coach. “That’s very positive to be a part of something like that in the community. These girls probably received more than they gave.” Before taking the Red-

town), 10 percent of the multi-family units being built are required to be affordable housing — but affordable for Redmond. He acknowledged that Redmond has always been in a higher price bracket for housing, noting that rent usually runs around $2.50-3 per square foot. This would have a 1,000 square-foot apartment running between $2,500 and $3,000 a month. “To me, that’s not really affordable housing,” Myers said.

the department, including officers, crime analysts, a public information officer (PIO) and more. While that levy did not have an end date, Gibson said the city has not been able to increase the amount by more than 1 percent each year — per state law. And with inflation and other factors increasing the cost of employee salary and benefits, the spending power of those levy dollars has eroded, he said. In addition to allowing the city and RPD to maintain those 17 positions, last month’s levy would have allowed the department to also hire five more employees — two officers to focus on property crime, two more neighborhood resources officers and one more full-time evidence technician. With no additional funds coming in, Gibson said they will have to factor these needs into the city’s general budget for 2017-18. And these needs will be

considered alongside other city needs. Gibson said this means if citizens say they would like to see more of city service “X,” then they would have to have less of city service “Y.” In other words, something will have to give elsewhere within the city budget. And while last month’s levy failure is not great news for RPD, Gibson said “the sky’s not falling.” It is still safe in Redmond. Since 2012, Gibson said violent crimes (“crimes against persons” as categorized by the state) has decreased. Crimes against society (such as drug violations, gambling offenses and weapon law violations) have also decreased. However, he said, property crime (such as robberies, burglaries, fraud and motor vehicle theft) has increased by 25 percent since 2012. Becky Range, PIO for RPD, said this increase in property crimes is a trend they are seeing across the state. In Redmond, she said police are working hard to address the issue. “We are working hard to investigate all cases, but also improve our crime prevention education,” Range said. As an example, she noted that in general, half of the car prowls reports they receive involve cars with unlocked doors. In addition, Range said, they often respond to stolen vehicle reports involving vehicles that were

Myers said council has discussed sunsetting waivers for developers that would not require them to develop and rent affordable units. With these waivers, Myers said developers would be able to rent all their units at a full market rate. Only about 25 of 100 of these waivers have been claimed, so Myers said council is looking into sunsetting the remaining 75 or so. This means the waivers would have an expiration date on their availability, which they do not currently have. Myers said city staff is now looking into a timeline of when they could sunset the waivers. unlocked and sometimes with the keys still inside the vehicle. “We know it sounds simple, but we really need the community to one: Remove all valuables from cars. And two: Lock their car doors, at all times,” she said. And policing is not up to just RPD. Range said police encourages people to be vigilant and call 911 when they see something suspicious or out of the ordinary. One example of this came earlier this month. Range said RPD responded to a burglary in progress on Sept. 3 at the Old Loft Apartments in downtown Redmond. Apartment staff had called 911 when they noticed a security camera had just been stolen and they believed the suspects may still be on the property. Officers arrived on the scene and Range said they took strategic positions in and around the area. Police located and arrested one male and one female suspect. “Investigation revealed the suspects had driven a stolen vehicle to the apartment, and had previously parked a second stolen vehicle in the garage,” Range said. When asked to identify himself, she said, the male suspect presented police with stolen identification. Range said stolen items found on both suspects included drugs and drug paraphernalia, equipment to create false identifications, several vehicle registrations, burglary tools, more than 100 sets of keys and several types of jewelry. “Redmond police are so grateful to the alert apartment staff who quickly called 911, which played a large role in their arrests,” Range said. “Suspects have now been charged with possession of stolen vehicle and burglary second degree. Detectives have also identified approximately 32 other possible victims and are in the process of contacting them now. We hope to return the majority of stolen property to rightful owners in Redmond.”

The SwiftPath Method for joint replacement: getting people ‘back in the game’ faster More than 30 million people in the U.S. suffer from arthritis — a number that will double as the baby boomers reach their retirement. Painful arthritis starts around age 40 typically appearing as that sore joint after increased use. For some, the disease is minor and never requires medical attention. For others, painful joints will interfere with active lifestyles, recreation and work. In the worst cases, symptoms become excruciating and debilitating — making even the most trivial of activities too painful to tolerate. These
are the patients that benefit greatly from joint replacement surgery. Traditional joint replacement methods have been focused largely on the needs of less active, elderly patients. They relied on large incisions, heavy doses of narcotics and months of difficult postoperative therapy. However, by 2016, half of joint replacement patients will be less than 65 years of age. These patients have increased demands. They need methods that reduce pain, reduce the need for narcotics and speed recovery. The SwiftPath Method utilizes a set of techniques and processes that create
a working plan customized to the patient: • Patient education • Family involvement • State-of-the-art minimally invasive surgery • Non-narcotic pain control • Online home care monitoring • Rapid rehabilitation Outpatient total joint replacement These methods have allowed large numbers of patients to recover faster after total joint replacement. Many patients can be discharged on the day of surgery or the day after. This greatly reduces the likelihood of hospital-

State Parks announces ‘free day’ for Sept. 26 The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission wants the public to know that Sept. 26 is a state parks “free day.” Day-use visitors will not need a Discover Pass to visit state parks. The “free day” is in recognition of the 22nd anniversary of National Public Lands Day — the nation’s largest single-day volunteer effort for public lands. State Parks “free days” are in keeping with legislation that created the Discover Pass, a $30 annual
or $10 one-day permit required on lands managed by Washington State Parks, the Washington departments of Natural Resources (DNR) and Fish & Wildlife (WDFW). The Discover Pass legislation provided that State Parks could designate up to 12 “free days” each year when the pass would not be required to visit state parks. The Discover Pass is still required to access lands managed by WDFW and DNR on these days. “Free days” apply only to day-use access by vehicle, not overnight stays or rented facilities. Washington State Parks will have one more “free day” in 2015: Nov. 11, in honor of Veterans Day.

Lindsey Yocum of Redmond was filled with strength as she spoke about her son Porter, 3, at Kindering’s annual graduation ceremony last month in Bellevue. A total of 725 3-year-olds graduated from the award-winning Early Intervention Program. When parents first arrive at Kindering, they often feel like they are the only people in the world experiencing the trials of raising a child with special needs, according to a press release. And indeed, they may have a child who has a syndrome so rare that it doesn’t even have a name. However, these families quickly discover that Kindering is a place that brings families hope, joy and a sense of community. Like Yocum, parents discover that Kindering teachers and therapists are committed to helping each child reach his or her greatest potential and that Kindering is a place that
supports the whole family, the release said. Yocum spoke about how her son’s physical therapists and staff helped support the whole family. “Two years ago, I entered the doors of Kindering. Little did I know that during the next two and a half years, my family’s experience with this organization would help prepare me for the road ahead. Through the support of the therapists, educators and staff, I slowly recognized that I’m not alone, that my family is not alone, on this journey.” She added: “Our Kindering family became our biggest advocates. Not only did they help Porter grow by leaps and bounds, but they helped my older son, Colton, bond with his younger brother. They helped me become a better mother to both my children and showed me the importance of taking time for myself and my husband. They showed me I wasn’t alone.” This year, Kindering cel-
VALA Eastside announces its artist in residence VALA Eastside has announced that for September and October, Maura Donegan will be VALA’s artist in residence. As a textile artist, Donegan’s work combines cloth making, embroidery and poetry to express a sense of innocence, joy and beauty. “We’re grateful for the generous grant provided by the Redmond Arts Commission to allow VALA Eastside to bring talented, local artists to the art center and to allow the community to witness the artist’s process of creating an installation from start to finish,” said Jessica Lambert, founder and executive director of VALA. The community can visit Donegan at the VALA Art Center, 7330 164th Ave. N.E., to
ebrated the largest graduating class to date, thanks, in large part, to the center’s ability to serve more children and their families in the newly expanded second campus in Bothell. Since opening doors to the second campus in 2014, Kindering has experienced a 25 percent increase in early intervention enrollment and now serves east King County through Renton and south Snohomish County. In closing, Yocum expressed the feelings of so many parents in the room when she stated: “Everyone raising children has felt alone at some point. My feelings have come from knowing that I’m on a path that is different and more difficult than expected. I’ve now realized that this is a path traveled by many. I’m not alone. No one is alone. Going forward, I would like to thank everyone at Kindering, my mommy friends, and the numerous community members for all of their support.”
learn about her process and help make art that will be incorporated into a larger public art “cloud,” entitled “Silver Linings,” that will be installed in October. Donegan will hold a series of hands-on workshops at the VALA Art Center exploring the concepts of joy and beauty through mark making and stitching. Participants will write, draw, stitch, print, color or embellish in any way that helps them express their experience and have the opportunity to hang their created works in a “cloud” installation at the VALA Art Center. No experience is necessary. Each workshop is free to the public ($5 donation is suggested to support VALA Eastside) Workshop dates: Sept. 24, 7-9 p.m. Oct. 1, 7-9 p.m. Oct. 8, 7-9 p.m.

Become a LINKS volunteer today: How one hour per week can impact a child Submitted by the Lake Washington School District In the time that it takes to watch your favorite crime drama on TV, you could inspire a child to be successful in school. Just one hour per week can make an impact on the life of a Lake Washington School District (LWSD) student. Become a LINKS volunteer today. Here’s how you can help: • Become an academic mentor: Academic mentors are carefully matched with a student at the elementary, middle or high school level. This volunteer opportunity takes place during the school day. The timeframe can vary from 30 minutes to an hour. Core classes are often the subjects students need extra help with and include math, reading, writing and science. • Become a Lunch Buddy: Lunch Buddies are matched with a student and they meet one day each week during the student’s lunch hour. Volunteers bring their own lunch
and meet the student in a designated area. Most schools have fun games the volunteer and student can play together. They talk, laugh and have fun. Volunteers often share that it’s the best day of their week. • Become a classroom helper: Classroom helpers usually assist in one classroom and help with several students each week. Volunteer opportunities vary depending on the needs of the students. The most common subject areas include reading, writing, math and science. Volunteers work closely with school staff to determine how their personal strengths can best be used in the classroom to benefit students. • Become a tutor: Tutoring provides academic support to one student or a group of students, typically focusing on one subject. This volunteer opportunity is held during school hours or during an after school study program in an assigned area. • New for 2015-16: Become an AVID facilitator. AVID (Advancement via Individual Determination) is a national program designed to better prepare students for college. The facilitators work with a small group of students one or two days a week for one hour. This program is new to
the district in 2015-16 and will run at two schools: Evergreen Middle School and Redmond Middle School. • New for 2015-16: Become a health room volunteer. Health room volunteers work in the school health rooms. They support office staff by assisting students who come to the health room for various health issues. • Volunteers are needed throughout Redmond, Kirkland and Sammamish to help in classrooms and provide valuable support to teachers and their students. Teachers and counselors submit requests for volunteers to support students academically and socially to assist kindergarten through high school students. • Most volunteer opportunities are 45-60 minutes per week. Volunteers are asked to commit to their assignment through the end of the school year. Make a difference in a school near you by becoming a LINKS volunteer. Your crime drama can wait. Isn’t that why the DVR was invented? To learn more about LINKS volunteer opportunities, visit the LINKS page on the LWSD website, www.lwsd.org. To register for an upcoming volunteer orientation, email Nanci Wehr at nwehr@lwsd.org or call (425) 936-1410.
