Houghton Community Council opposes bus rapid transit on corridor Eastside Rail Corridor Regional Advisory Council member confirms transit on corridor “almost a certainty” BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com
T
he fate of the Eastside Rail Corridor and specifically that of the Cross Kirkland Corridor (CKC) has drawn out numerous competing interests as to what should, or shouldn’t, be placed on it. At a packed meeting on Monday night, the Houghton Community Council joined
opponents of bus rapid transit (BRT) on the CKC by approving a measure to have it instead placed on Interstate 405, in opposition to the city’s planned recommendations to Sound Transit. Sound Transit, which has an easement on the corridor, is currently looking at possible projects to include on their ST3 ballot measure. The Sound Transit Board held its first workshop for ST3 a
few weeks ago, examining proposals that would extend light rail and rapid bus transit in Seattle, Everett, Tacoma and the Eastside. They have estimated the costsof a potential light rail route connecting Issaquah and Totem Lake via Bellevue at up to $3.379 billion, while another light rail project would have the East Link line extend to downtown Redmond, with a cost of $1.1 billion and up to 5,000
riders a day in 2040. Meanwhile, the city of Kirkland is preparing to lobby Sound Transit in the hopes of getting them to instead opt for a BRT line on the ERC and consequently the CKC, which they believe would be comparably inexpensive, take less time to construct, and be more adaptable to changes as the region grows. Earlier this year the City Council approved a
$250,000 conceptual design for BRT planning, pre-design and cost-estimating that will later either be presented to Sound Transit or used by the city itself when looking at other related transportation options. The city has said it doesn’t know for sure how much the BRT would cost at this point, which doesn’t include the construction of a transit center at Totem Lake, but their
Comprehensive Plan Update approved by city following 200 meetings BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com
The Kirkland City Council approved its Comprehensive Plan Update that included zoning changes in Totem Lake and near Parkplace in downtown. Following 200 open meetings on the matter, the council approved nine separate ordinances pertaining to policy changes and amendment requests for properties looking to redevelop at their Dec. 8 meeting.

“It has been a hell of an effort, pardon my French, but it’s been an enormous body of work,” Councilmember Penny Sweet said. “I’m really proud of what we’ve done… I cannot think of a body of work that has involved so much community involvement. It really feels like a product of Kirkland.” Councilmember Jay Arnold described the update as conveying their vision of a “walkable livable Kirkland” and “reflects not [ more PLAN page 7 ]

“Santa” returns for holiday charity event Fred Herzberg, a local “Santa” returned to Marina Park on Sunday, joining with the Kirkland Chamber of Commerce and the Kirkland Downtown Association (KDA) for a toy and food drive for charity. Herzberg and representatives from the two organizations met last week to discuss miscommunication stemming from an incident at Kirkland Winterfest. All involved decided to turn the issue into a benefit for the community. “We took care of all the wish lists at the Ryther house for foster kids, and received lots of donations for Girls Giving Back,” said Barbie Collins Young of the KDA. They also received 129 toys and 329 pounds of food for Hopelink. The real Santa will visit Kirkland on his normal Christmas Eve run on Dec. 24.

Local senior thespians went wild with a male stripper in a Kirkland filmmaker’s submission for Doritos’ 2016 Super Bowl commercial contest. Doug Stapleton came up with the idea for the commercial’s plot after his parent’s retired and he started hearing more of their and their friends’ crazy stories. Stapleton said his wife encouraged him to “go for it” after batting around the concept for a few years. While he originally envisioned it with women in their mid-30s and 40s, he said he realized it would be funnier if it involved a young man and older women. After searching for the perfect location, Stapleton and his producer Lois Greenberg decided to film the commercial at Pacific Regent in Bellevue over a weekend in October. The scene takes place inside a retirement community and shatters stereotypes by revealing seniors’ wild and crazy side – while eating Doritos, of course. The ladies are shown whooping and cheering-on a muscular male [ more DORITOS page 2 ]

While the cast and crew were filming in a separate room, Pacific Regent residents were spotted filing past and peeking into the room to watch the male stripper, played by a Eastside real estate attorney. “We had a lot of fun with ‘Stripper Boy,’ he was very cute,” said DeLillis. “At first, Doug told us to stare at his belly button, and then he told us to look at his belt buckle, but then he told us to look a little lower.” In its tenth and final year, Doritos Crash the Super Bowl Contest incentivizes independent filmmakers like Stapleton to compete for the chance for their commercial to air to millions of Super Bowl viewers. The winner also receives one million dollars as a prize. Although it was among the highest rated videos on the Doritos website, Stapleton said, the commercial did not advance to the semifinal round from the close to 4,000 entries.

ore than 22,000 people have signed a petition calling for the elimination of toll lanes on Interstate 405. The lanes have proven to be unpopular with commuters since they were implemented in late September, but many drivers seem to have had it with what many regard to be an ineffective way for Washington State to reduce congestion along the notoriously tedious stretch of road. Grievances laid out in the petition include forcing
two-person carpool vehicles into the general lanes, which charges three-person vehicles $15 for a FlexPass on top of a residual required balance and infrequent toll lane access points. A Washington State Department of Transportation blog post from late October said they had seen a decrease in average commute times. The post claimed there had been a 50 percent reduction in travel times from a 40-minute commute in 2014. Evening commuters, the post ceded, saw little reduction in congestion, if any.

Along with the moveon. org petitioners concerns was the creation of new congestion points, an issue which the WSDOT blog post also addressed. In the blog post, I-405 north of State Route 522 and Lynnwood increased congestion, creating longer commutes for drivers traveling shorter distances between the two cities. It also did not significantly reduce congestion between Bellevue and SR 522, with stop-and-go traffic in Kirkland before traffic breaks up until it meets new congestion points near Bothell.
The petition states that as much as 75 percent of toll revenue is being shipped to the out-of-state tolling company, with the remainder staying in-state, and states only an estimated 10 percent of the money collected is reinvested in road maintenance and improvements. The petition asks lawmakers to eliminate toll lanes and restore carpool lanes, remove double lines on the lanes and allow drivers to use carpool lanes for free during night hours. This past week tolls for the I-405 lanes reached an all-time high at $10.

It seems really like putting the horse before the cart.” The likelihood of rapid transit on the trail was confirmed by Program Manager Deb Eddy with the Eastside Rail Corridor Regional Advisory Council, who told the Reporter it was “almost a certainty.” The regional advisory council was formed after several entities, including Kirkland, purchased sections of the ERC from the Port of Seattle, creating a situation in which numerous parties have different ownership rights to the corridor. Mayor Amy Walen is one of the members of the council. The regional advisory council envisions transit on the corridor at some point, though it doesn’t
prescribe any specific transportation mode. “Our interest is ensuring not only the coordination they’ve seen to date but going forward we have a higher level of coordination,” Eddy said. However, she said no matter what makes it on ST3, the regional advisory council will not be taking a side either way due to the fact that several of the council members are also Sound Transit board members. “We can affirm at every opportunity the commitment that transit is part of our vision for the corridor, so whether it’s this project or another, eventually transit will be throughout the whole corridor, and Kirkland’s segment may turn out to be one of the easiest places to evaluate and to implement transit, but that’s not a decision the regional advisory council is suited to making,” she said.

The inspiring story of a local Holocaust survivor
A
Allison Hoff
s we pulled up in the van I felt my heart beating. I was nervous — how could I begin to express my sorrow and pay my respects to the many souls that died in the Holocaust? As I climbed out of the car, I caught my first glance of Auschwitz-Birkenau and the famous sign, “arbeit macht frei,” or “work makes you free.” I was overwhelmed seeing the vast place for the first time. As I took my first steps on the grounds of the concentration camp, I thought about the many people who had stood there and never got to live their dreams and share their stories. I attempted to comprehend all the pain and suffering that was experienced not long ago, but I had a hard time wrapping my head around everything. I was flooded with inquiries as I walked through Auschwitz that rainy day in August. Having been to Auschwitz, my perspective regarding not only past genocides around the world, but also current situations our world faces, such as the Syrian refugee crisis, has changed. After learning about how Jews were persecuted during the Holocaust, I can’t help but make a connection to the way the Syrians are being treated now, particularly after the recent terrorist attacks in Paris. Seeing Auschwitz was a very meaningful experience for me, and it raised many questions. I wanted to learn more about the Holocaust from someone who had witnessed the concentration camps first hand to educate myself about how the lessons we have learned can be applied today. I felt exceptionally privileged to have the opportunity to meet a Holocaust survivor with the help of his daughter, Hana Kern. Tommy Lenda lives with his wife Rose in the Seattle area and has written and published a book, Children on the Death Row, the Hate and the War. Mr. Lenda wrote

He wants people to learn from what happened in the Holocaust and use that knowledge to make our world a better place. By sharing his story with students, Mr. Lenda has healed himself and found lessons in the Holocaust. “We must eliminate hate because it’s usually the source of bad happenings,” said Rose, Mr. Lenda’s wife. Mr. Lenda explained to me that eliminating hate is something we can all do to make our world a better place, and it could be as simple as standing up to a bully or advocating for what you believe in.

Mr. Lenda speaks frequently in schools to sixth graders, and although it can be emotional, he enjoys sharing his stories with the new generation. I was honored to be invited to his home to talk with him in person and hear his inspiring and motivational story. I knocked on his door one evening with my notebook in hand, nervous and eagerly awaiting our conversation. Mr. Lenda began by describing to me how as a young boy, he entered Terezín, a concentration camp in the Czech Republic, in 1942 at the age of 6. Young Tommy survived Terezín, and left when it was liberated in 1945 at age nine. From the ghettos, Jews were often taken to camps like Terezín before being sent to death camps like Auschwitz. More than 15,000 children inhabited Terezín, but in Tommy’s age group of children under nine years
This story has grown far beyond its importance and I would like people to hear my voice about the Santa saga. Neither the city of Kirkland, nor any of its employees or officials were involved in any way, nor was the Kirkland Downtown Association and Chamber responsible for the confusion that occurred in the park. This is a matter of pure miscommunication and missed communications. I am working to make sure nothing like this ever happens again. Apologies have been shared and accepted wholeheartedly. In fact, in the spirit of Christmas, I partner[ed] with the Kirkland Downtown Association and Kirkland Chamber to do a toy and food drive on Dec. 13 from 2-3 p.m. at Marina Park by the Christmas tree. As a community, we need to keep the spirit alive, and you can show your support by bringing toys and food to give back to the needy people in our area. Please come see me and spread the holiday cheer. Ho, ho, ho, and here’s to happy endings. No coal in anyone’s stocking this year.

Help paralyzed veterans As we begin the holiday season, many find themselves wondering how to honor the men and women who have so bravely served our country. Currently, there are more than 18,000 paralyzed veterans across the country who are members of Paralyzed Veterans of America, with more than
400 living right here in Washington. There are countless stories of neighbors picking up a restaurant tab or saluting a soldier in the streets, but it is often hard to find a way to truly give back to those who have sacrificed so much. The Paralyzed Veterans of America are making it much easier through Wheels Helping Warriors, a vehicle donation program that raises funds to help provide veterans access to free employment counseling, benefits assistance, advocacy, adaptive sports and recreation programs and more. They take all types of vehicles for donation including motorcycles, motorhomes, cars, trucks, boats, tractors, etc., regardless of the condition. Donations are tax-deductible. More importantly, money raised through donations goes directly back to the veterans who need it most. This holiday season, let’s truly give back. I urge you to consider donating a vehicle, or spreading the word to others who might be able to donate. You can call 866-841-2023 and they’ll pick up your vehicle for free. This is an easy and meaningful way to honor those who deserve it most.

Feeding the fascist fringe In regards to the editorial comics you published in the last two editions of your paper... You are feeding in to the dangerous cynicism, hatred and divisiveness of the fascist fringe. One week you trivialize legitimate concerns about
mistreatment of African Americans at the hands of our police forces. The following week you equate masses of innocent Syrian refugees fleeing our sworn enemy ISIS, with the deranged terrorists killing innocent civilians. Shame on you.
Susan Vossler, Kirkland
Disappointed by the fearmongering political cartoon I was deeply disappointed by the fear-mongering political cartoon that ran on the Dec. 11 Op-Ed page. The cartoonist implies that helping Syrian refugees will result in brutal attacks on Washington residents, by explicitly lumping said refugees in with the recent San Bernardino shooters and describing them all as equally “dangerous.” Unfortunately for the cartoonist’s intended point, the couple who committed those atrocities were not refugees seeking safety and security; neither were they from anywhere even close to Syria. The [man was] an American citizen (born in Illinois and raised in California) and his wife, a permanent U.S. resident via marriage. Both were of Pakistani descent, a country nearly 2,000 miles from Syria. “That’s different,” indeed. If you would rather not allow displaced Syrian families to enter our state, at least make your argument with hard facts, rather than wildly assuming that all people with foreignsounding names are identical... and “dangerous.”

he did as a hobby while at home. He stopped drawing for a brief period in high school but got back into illustrating while attending a film school in Vancouver, B.C. studying video production. His main interest, he said, was in drawing landscapes and digital paintings of environments that would work well for fantasy or sci-fi films and games, with an emphasis on mountainous landscapes and distinct geographical terrain. “Just doing it on my computer, I could make these environments, these worlds no one has ever seen before,” he said. “I would just be able to create something that’s new and original. That’s what really drew me to these more fantastical environmental designs. Mostly what I make is I suppose organic worlds and designs, although I have been working more with man-built landscapes and cities.” Ironically, Otteni said he initially learned about the contest while he and his brother were submitting scripts and short stories to numerous contests. During the process he got interested in other work he could submit to contest. Learning about the Illustrators of the Future Contest, which had no submission fee, he took several background pieces he had drawn and sent them in. One of the entries was a panoramic image of a shallow ocean with jagged rocks sticking out and an abandoned broken up ship with giant stone men in the background.

Some things work, some things don’t.” However, he said while he was proud of his art, he did not expect to win anything. “With my work I thought it was good enough to submit, but I know so many people close to me that are so talented with illustrations,” he said. “I guess every once and a while your work just strikes a chord with them.” When he was informed that he was one of the contest’s winners, he said he wasn’t surprised or excited, but skeptical that it was actually the contest officials. Since then, he said, the excitement has been slowly building. “I don’t know if I’ve been able to grasp just the scale of this contest because it’s a pretty big thing,” he said. “Really I probably won’t fully realize the excitement until they finally fly me out there for the ceremony.” Despite the recognition his artwork has received, he said he isn’t sure of what to do from here. The writing contest was first started by L. Ron Hubbard in 1983. An accompanying illustration contest was instituted in 1988 and to date has launched the careers of hundreds of illustrators.

the same way. Certain aspects of a situation are often similar to something that has happened before, but we don’t always make the connection. Europe is currently being flooded with Syrian refugees seeking a new home, similar to how the Jews were seeking safety from anti-Semitism in the 1930s and 1940s. Today, many see the Syrian migrants as potential terrorists. A brief article in the Sept. 25 issue of The Week described how some people in Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic are holding signs that read, “Today’s refugees, tomorrow’s terrorists.” Just as the Jews faced hate and anti-Semitism during the war, Syrians today are facing stereotypes and rejection. As Pope Francis encouraged during his recent visit
to the United States regarding the Syrian refugees, “We must not be taken aback by their numbers, but rather view them as persons, seeing their faces and listening to their stories.” This reminded me of Mr. Lenda’s message to eliminate hate and inspire love and acceptance. Mr. Lenda’s evolving understanding of the Holocaust relates perfectly to one of his favorite Latin proverbs, “The times change and we change with them.” Mr. Lenda hopes that his stories will affect the way we change and inspire us to eliminate hate. As Tommy emphasized to me on the day of our interview, not hate but “the good feeling” helped people survive the worst genocide in history.

only our values in defining how we grow but defining our values in how we came together as a community and put this plan together.” One of the ordinances included rewrites of the Totem Lake Business District Plan that had rezoning changes for several properties in the Totem Lake neighborhood. One of them included the Totem Commercial Center along NE 124th St. and allows for increased height for structures and a wide range of possible uses. The property owners praised the decision as a “game changer for the city.” Todd Woosely of Hal Woosley Properties, Inc., which owns the Totem Commercial Center, told the council that the changes would put them in a position to redevelop it for multi-use. “It is a new day for Kirkland,” he said. “It will take time, as all these things do, but it’s a good place.” Totem Lake, which is designated as an urban center, is expected to grow from its present population of 5,544 to 9,800 by 2030, and double its housing units to 6,000. Employment is expected to increase from 11,511 to 29,000. The redevelopment of Totem Lake Malls by new owner Centercal Properties (and renamed the Village at Totem Lake) is expected to start sometime next year. The council also approved an amendment request by MRM Capital for their property at 434 Kirkland Way, located just south of Parkplace in downtown Kirkland. The amendment allows for them to redevelop the property, located in a Central Business District, for mixed use, residential and retail, which they believe will create greater cohesion with the new Park-
place development owners named Kirkland Urban. Critics of the request had claimed that it would go against the city’s pre-established vision for downtown and significantly diminish its capacity to offer office space for a daytime employment population. Right now, the 74,000-square-foot property contains a one story office building. MRM Capital Manager Joe Razore previously told the Reporter that they plan to have five stories of residential on top of the retail ground floor. The original zoning had a limit of 12.5 percent of the gross floor area for residential. The new zoning allows for six stories or 67 ft. for residential but up to 80 ft. if half the total gross space is office. Another ordinance for property in the Rose Hill neighborhood on 126th Ave NE changed the height limit from 45 to 54 feet. Another ordinance amended certain property in the Everest Neighborhood on 6th Street so that recreational open space is no longer required. One request concerning property in the North Rose Hill allows for limited commercial use on land zoned for office. While most of the ordinances were passed without further discussion, one of the amendments pertaining to several land parcels in the Moss Bay neighborhood generated debate between both councilmembers and the property owners. The original amendment requested the property be rezoned from low density to high density, but the ultimate amendment designated it as medium density. Low density allows for nine units per acre, while medium density permits 12 per acre. Additionally, the council approved a 25 height limit on structures, with a 10 foot front setback, 20 feet for
driveways and 10 feet when abutting existing single family residences. Jason Nelson, who originally petitioned the city for the amendments and owns two lots in the neighborhood, objected to the switch from high density to medium, which he argued would make additional units impractical to put on the properties. “I currently live behind Parkplace in a house surrounded by condos,” he said. “I’ve got neighbors that have houses….no one forces anybody to do anything but everyone has the option to do what they want with their property.” A woman whose property is also affected by the rezoning complained that the medium density, rather than high density, would limit the number of units and thus the value of the property. “We’re surrounded on all sides really by high density, so what reasoning is there to take our little plot of land and not make it high density?” she asked. Another man who spoke also voiced his support for high density. “The time is ripe to rezone to high density to really do anything financially in those houses or on those lots because they’re very small,” he said. Several councilmembers sought to amend it to make the height limit 30 feet, afraid that the 25 foot limit would hinder potential development in the parcels, but the motion was defeated. Reiterating similar statements on the transportation masterplan, Councilmember Toby Nixon voiced his opposition to aspects of one of the Comprehensive Plan Update that included transportation policies related to climate change.

According to the conceptual master plan for the project, now known as the Village at Totem Lake, most of the one-story retail building in the lower mall will be demolished, leaving the northern section intact. Most of the upper mall buildings will also be demolished, as well. For the redevelopment, “all buildings on pedestrian-oriented streets should be encouraged to have upper-story activities overlooking the street, as well as balconies and roof decks with direct access from living spaces,” according to a city memo. “Residential building facades visible from streets and public spaces should provide balconies of a sufficient depth to appear integrated into the building and not ‘tacked on,’” the memo states further.

Totem Lake despite the fact that Whole Foods has been announced as the anchor tenant for the new development. The Whole Foods store will be 40,000-square-feet and located in the mixed-use development at I-405 and Northeast 124th Street. It is anticipated to open in the summer of 2017, and will be the first Whole Foods Market in Kirkland. Meanwhile, the owners of the Totem Lake Hotel, located adjacent to the malls and the Totem Lake Cinema, are taking advantage of the redevelopment by engaging in their own renovation work. In 2004, Coventry Real Estate Advisors and Developers Diversified Realty purchased the Totem Lake Malls from the California Public Employees’ Retirement System for $37 million, intending to redevelop the site. Instead, the site became entangled in a $500 million fraud lawsuit filed in New York state. In April, Village at Totem Lake LLC purchased the mall. The Village at Totem Lake LLC is a joint venture partnership between CenterCal and PCCP, LLC.
