City continues work to develop Overlake area SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
The City of Redmond is continuing its work to develop Overlake into an urban center. Currently, staff is seeking community input on future infrastructure plans for the southern part of Overlake Village — from Northeast 24th Street to Northeast 20th Street. The city hosted an open house on Dec. 17 to kick off things. The southern portion of Overlake Village is bounded by 148th Avenue Northeast on the west, Northeast 24th Street on the north, Bel-Red Road on the east and Northeast 20th Street on the south. This infrastructure planning work builds on earlier work completed in 2011, which resulted in an integrated infrastructure plan for the north half of Overlake Village. “We are seeking input from the community on where future streets should be located, what kind of streets should be built, what the Northeast 24th Street corridor should look like in the future and what kinds of stormwater management features should be incorporated,” said City of Redmond senior planner Jeff Churchill in a city press release. He said at the meeting, the city provided preliminary designs for streets and stormwater management facilities. “It went well,” Churchill said. “We got a lot of feedback. We got a lot of questions.” The release states that the city is planning for the infrastructure needed to support growth so that everyone has a clear idea what infrastructure will be needed, where it will go and how it will be built. Churchill said for those who were unable to attend last week’s meeting, there is an online questionnaire at www.redmond.gov/overlake. It will be available through Jan. 3. The release continues, stating that the city will continue working with stakeholders to refine preliminary infrastructure plans. The city will also prepare cost estimates and [ more OVERLAKE page 3]

In addition, Hitch said there will be other small-scale stormwater facilities throughout the area as developers continue building. The city’s current timeline for the study is to continue with cost estimations, a phasing plan and economic analysis in the winter of 2016 and draft a plan and report leading up to spring 2016. Following that, the Planning Commission and City Council are scheduled to review the plan and the city will present a final plan and report come summer or fall 2016.

Educating children about food waste Food waste has become a prevalent issue in the world, specifically in more developed countries. We always hear the saying, “don’t take more than you can eat,” but how often do children eat everything on their plate? The food that they waste makes its way into landfills, where it decomposes and releases methane, a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases absorb and trap the sun’s energy inside the Earth’s atmosphere, and currently about 60 percent of greenhouse gases are made by us — mostly from the cars we drive. Over time, greenhouse gases cause global warming. Furthermore, food loss is food that is lost during the manufacturing process due to packaging or preservation problems. Sometimes, an apple is simply thrown away because of a brown spot or dent. Every year, 1.3 billion tons of food is lost — this is unacceptable. We are students at Tesla STEM High School in Redmond. We realized how much of an impact food waste has on the environment around us through our AP environmental science class. We wanted to make a change, so we have been educating students at elementary schools about food waste. We have come up with four ways to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases released, so the effect on our environment is minimized. Storing leftovers in air-tight containers or freezing it can preserve it for a longer period of time, making it consumable after several days. The excess food may also be donated, considering 54,206,200 people in America don’t have enough food to eat. Furthermore, it is important to raise awareness of this issue in the society, so people are more inclined to watch their

There shouldn’t be controversy over Christmas signs An article regarding the “It’s OK to say Merry Christmas” signs was recently published in the Redmond Reporter. There is some controversy over the use of these signs when, as it is obvious to me, there should not be. Small signs placed on public property and, according to the article, taken down before New Year’s Day are legal and a form of free speech. The removal of these signs, as some are clamoring for, would be in direct violation of the First Amendment’s guaranteed rights. Why should these signs be offensive anyway? The point of them is to state that it is OK to speak openly about whatever holiday one celebrates, and not to suppress it for the sake of “political correctness.”

portions, so they don’t end up wasting food. Lastly, the methane gas from landfills can be captures, converted, and used as a source of power for cars, or even factories. Though this last plan would have to be facilitated and executed by a large company or organization, it is important for members of the society to be aware of these options in order to promote these changes. By educating the children in our community, we are getting one step closer to decreasing the harsh impact of food waste on our environment.
In regards to all the Christmas signs comments and being open minded, etc. In the 1970s, I sang all kinds of Christmas carols, secular and religious to the troops in Germany with the U.S.O. Still have the music sheets. In 1987, 1989 and 1991, my family and
I went to Holiday Traditions/Lights and sang mostly religious songs from booklets that I still have, published by the Redmond Sammamish Valley News. Then suddenly around 1992 all seemed to drift to only secular Christmas carols and many other different cultural (religious or otherwise) gatherings. There was, however, a story on KOMO, “I had a dream, Joseph” about all the hoopla of Christmas and no one getting that it is for the birthday of Mary’s son, Jesus Christ. My point is: I love seeing all the festivals, but don’t take my religious celebrations away in the process. After all PC should stand for Politely Considerate, not the overbearing Politically Correct that has been shoved at us all. I have traveled around the whole U.S. and this area is the most overbearing Politically Correct state, not helping anyone. Be Politely Considerate and enjoy the season! Oh, and have a blessed and merry Christmas.

Help paralyzed veterans through Wheels Helping Warriors During 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, motor homes, 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.

SMS matched the $1,513 value of the items donated by school families. “I liked shopping with my mommy for a present to give to a little girl like me,” said 4-year-old Sarayu Kanakala. “Hopelink is like a grocery store, but you don’t need to pay money,” explained 8-year-old student Helena Crawford who volunteers with her family at Hopelink.
The food and toy drive is an annual tradition at SMS, which the students look forward to each year. Last fall, SMS elementary students also enjoyed a visit with Lois Brandt, local author of Maddi’s Fridge, a picture book that, with humor and warmth, raises awareness about poverty and hunger (www.loisbrandt. com). “This book makes this subject understandable and relatable for children. After reading this book and talking about it, all of the students were very excited to help and eager to make a difference for others in need. They are still very motivated,” said teacher Ailynn Ang.

LWSD seeks input on possible bond plan At its Dec. 7 meeting, the Lake Washington School District Board of Directors received an initial draft report on potential funding measures that would enable the district to build new schools and address aging schools. Dr. Traci Pierce, superintendent, presented a draft short-term and long-term funding plan. A Bond Advisory Committee, composed of city, business, community, parent and staff representatives,
facility designs. The draft funding plan implements the construction projects over time. A 2016 bond measure would fund the most immediate needs. Subsequent bond measures in 2018, 2022 and 2026 would fund the longer-term needs. The bond measures would not increase tax rates. They would maintain the 2015 tax rate and keep it steady over the next 15 years. Each measure would have projects to increase
classroom space and reduce the reliance on portable classrooms. Additional projects would leverage use of existing facilities and expand choice school/ program options. Costeffective design principles would be implemented. The district has launched a survey for community members to provide feedback on the draft funding plan. Take the survey online here: http://tinyurl.com/ goptej6 The 2016 bond measure

That 63-member representative group spent almost a year looking into the district’s facility needs. The task force recommendations include a list of specific construction projects needed for the district through 2029-30. They also recommended strategies for efficient and cost-effective

is anticipated to be on the ballot in April if approved. It would include construction projects in every learning community, the area served by each of the four comprehensive high schools. It would fund three new schools in the Redmond Learning Community — two elementary and one middle school. It would also remodel or replace and enlarge the following schools: Juanita High School and Kirk Elementary School in Kirkland and Mead Elementary School in Sammamish. It would replace Explorer Community School with new modular buildings. It would also refurbish the Old Redmond Schoolhouse for use as a preschool center.
Further community input would be sought before each of the three subsequent bond measures. Those measures would run in 2018, 2022 and 2026, concurrently with the district’s replacement levies. The Educational Programs & Operations Levy as well as the Capital Projects Levy must be renewed every four years. Those future ballot measures would seek funding to build three additional elementary schools and two choice high schools. Projects to remodel or replace and enlarge schools would include Kamiakin Middle School, Alcott Elementary School, Evergreen Middle School, and Smith Elementary School.
Property and business owners encouraged to submit storm damage reports
to record a damage report Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Submitting a report does not guarantee reimbursement. Damage reports are for uninsured losses. Before filing a damage report with King County, residents and business owners should contact their insurance provider about existing coverage and deductibles. They are also urged to document damage with photographs and keep records of all cleanup and repair costs. Residents in unincorporated King County whose homes were damaged in the storm can obtain free building inspections from the King County Department of Permitting and Environmental Review (DPER). DPER has waived the associated fee to help residents speed up repair to their property. Priority service will be given for damaged structures requiring permits for repair work. To request a damage assessment inspection during business hours, call (206) 296-6630.
Flooding, wind and landslides from the recent storm have impacted residents and businesses across King County. Those that suffered property damage or other losses in the storm may be eligible for assistance to get their property back in order. Eligibility is determined through a damage assessment process which takes into account the total reported losses within King County. In order to compute the losses, individuals and businesses are encouraged to submit reports to King County Emergency Management. A webpage, www. kingcounty.gov/damage, is now open to receive damage reports for individuals and businesses in King County. In addition, a hotline number, 1-800-5235044, will be available for individuals and businesses

Disease rates are low, heart health is improving and workplace safety is relatively high in Washington State, according to a report released Dec. 10 by the United Health Foundation. In their annual report entitled ‘America’s Health Rankings,’ the organization provides detailed statistics on health concerns in every state. Washington State moved up four slots from 2014, ranking as the ninth-healthiest state nationwide, with Hawaii topping the list, and Louisiana coming in last. Nationwide, adult smoking decreased from 19 to 18.1 percent of the population, and dropped from 16.1 to 15.3 percent in Washington. People were more active this year too, with national inactivity rates dropping from 25.3 to 22.6 percent of the population. State figures show a decrease in inactivity
DrinkSpace partners with The Renegade Wine Co. Redmond’s DrinkSpace has signed an agreement with The Renegade Wine Co. of Walla Walla. The agency for boutique alcohol beverage producers was founded by wine industry veteran Thomas Vogele, formerly of Michael Mondavi’s FOLIO Fine Wine Partners, and marketing/advertising veteran Steve Reed. DrinkSpace provides sales and marketing expertise to
from 20 to 18.1 percent with the highest rates of inactivity being in people who didn’t finish high school, seniors and those earning under $25,000 a year. Drug related deaths are down in the state from the five-year high of 15.9 deaths per 100,000 in 2012, but still remain at 14.1 deaths per 100,000, higher than the national average of 13.5 deaths per 100,000. More people are hitting the bottle in 2015 with 18.8 percent of adults reporting excessive drinking, which includes binge and dependent drinking patterns, up from 18.4 percent last year. Another area the state is lagging child immunizations, with only 67.4 percent of Washingtonian children receiving vaccines, compared with the highest state at 84.7 percent. Childhood poverty has increased from 11.8 percent in 1990 to 16.8 percent in 2015 statewide, nationally the number rose from 19.9 to 21.1 percent of children living in poverty. Washington had the sixth-lowest combined numbers of chlamydia, salmonella and pertussis ranking 13th for chlamydia, 30th for pertussis but 4th lowest for salmonella cases per 100,000. Washington was the third-safest state for workers, with only 2.6 deaths per 100,000 workers in 2015.
small craft producers, helping them navigate the myriad hurdles small wineries, breweries, cideries and distilleries encounter in the U.S. alcohol beverage industry. “We are thrilled to be partnering with a great brand like The Renegade Wine Company,” said Vogele. “Our goal is to provide the vital sales and marketing direction and a voice for the small to midsized producers that they just don’t have right now. This partnership will give Renegade the bandwidth it needs to grow the brand with a strategic, methodical approach.” “Our relationships allow producers to take the daily
marketing tasks off of their plates, affording them the freedom to focus on brand strategy and growing their business,” said Reed. The Renegade Wine Co. is owned and operated by business partners Jerry Solomon and Trey Busch, founders of Sleight of Hand Cellars in Walla Walla. Busch oversees Renegade’s winemaking. The Renegade offerings have been taking the market by storm with quality and value from Washington state’s Columbia Valley. The idea was to create a wine brand that significantly over-delivers on quality in the bottle for the price; the project took off and created a life of its own.

Redmond resident and Eastlake High School senior Georgia NewmanTaylor was worried someone made a mistake. She expected someone to say, “Sorry, you’re the wrong person to be here.” But Newman-Taylor was right where she belonged, as one of about 350 vocalists from around the nation to perform at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tenn., last month.

Newman-Taylor said, leading up to the Oct. 28 performance, the group practiced each day for 10plus hours. “It was probably the most intensive choir bootcamp I’ve ever been

Overlake School parents are on board with buildOn projects Overlake School parents are helping to make a difference with buildOn — an international nonprofit organization that focuses on the power of service and education to break the cycle of poverty, illiteracy and low expectations. The Seattle chapter of buildOn recently hosted an auction and dinner at Willows Lodge in Woodinville that featured buildOn founder and CEO, Jim Ziolkowski. The dinner successfully fundraised for the construction of three schools in Nepal this year. The Seattle chapter is self organized and works to raise awareness and fundraise. President of the Seattle chapter, Randi Hedin, is on the national board of directors and “about to physically build her ninth school,” explained Ziolkowski. Hedin
is also an Overlake parent, and is influential in raising awareness within her community and responsible for the high participation from the Overlake community. JK Schatzman, a Redmond resident and an Overlake parent, who was in charge of the silent auction component of the event, was first introduced to the buildOn organization through Hedin. She explained that her involvement with buildOn is a “stimulating way for (her) to give back to the community.” “We’re obviously building schools, but the other component is (that we) bring in students and the local communities to be a part of it,” Schatzman continued, “it’s a unique and a more involved component as opposed to sending money somewhere. The lessons that these students learn are incredible.”

The Kummerts, also an Overlake school family, spoke about their experience of going abroad and helping build a school for a week. They sponsored a school abroad by independently raising money for the school construction. “It’s like a different world,” Pam Kummert revealed, “It’s so clichéd, but (the experience) was life-changing.” “We’re working to address the education crisis in the United States and globally,” Ziolkowski explained. “Every 26 seconds, somebody in an urban high school drops out,” and the buildOn organization seeks to change this reality through the power of service. This year, the organization is mobilizing 4,000 urban youth to contribute more than 300,000 hours of service. “We are motivating these kids to mobilize their communities to change,” continued Ziolkowski. Ziolkowski’s passion for the power of education and service began during his yearlong hitchhiking and backpacking trip around the world in the 1980s, when he was first exposed to extreme poverty. In Nepal, as he was trekking in the mountains, he witnessed a two-day celebration of a school opening and “the seed was planted there” for the value

of education. Upon returning to the U.S., “I saw poverty in the U.S. much differently (and) I lived in Harlem for three years because I did not feel qualified to mobilize urban youth from such a distant perspective,” Ziolkowski explained. “It’s all about service and service learning,” Ziolkowski described. The domestic program focuses on afterschool service
