Si View Park district makes future plans By EVAN PAPPAS Staff Reporter
In preparation for an updated Parks District System Plan, the Si View Metropolitan Parks District held an open house on Wednesday, Sept. 14, at the Si View Community Center to receive feedback from residents on important projects for the future of the district. Travis Stombaugh, executive director of the park district, said the last comprehensive plan the district used was from 2006 and this update, currently scheduled for early 2017, is necessary to address the issues of the rapidly changing Valley. “We do have one… it’s about 11 years old,” he said. “We’ve accomplished a lot of the things that were already in there. So that’s why we are looking

Work began Monday on the delayed start of the Mount Si High School construction project. The city of Snoqualmie issued the building permit for the $195 million, three-year project last week. Assistant Superintendent Ryan Stokes reported to the Snoqualmie Valley School Board Thursday, Sept. 15, that Fury Site Works would start work Monday on clearing and grading to create temporary parking lots on the south end of the high school site, where several houses were acquired and demolished earlier this year, and on the baseball diamonds on the north end of the site. In November, they are scheduled to demolish the school’s main parking lot, where the new school will be built. In December, Stokes said, contractor Hayward Baker will insert more than 4,800 columns of crushed stone, 50 feet deep into the building site. The threefoot diameter columns will support the entire new building, not just the gym, Stokes said. Next spring, he continued, the district can advertise for bids on the construction project, possibly in February, and he hoped construction could begin by April. To accommodate the construction work, no parking will be allowed on Meadowbrook Way in front of the high school. Stokes said that with the temporary lots to be built, the

It needs a refresh. Priorities change, obviously our population in the Upper Valley has changed, and the needs of that population have changed so we are updating it to make it relevant.”
The event featured large comment boards for visitors to write about what they felt was important for the future of the parks district. Among the feedback were comments about furthering the development of
park and trail facilities, an expanded swimming pool and aquatic center, trail connections, and partnering with the city to improve Torguson Park. SEE PARKS, 6
Down in the ditches Carnation farm gets drainage help from county program By EVAN PAPPAS Staff Reporter
A combination of sediment and invasive plant species have plagued farm drainage ditches in the Valley for years, but with the help of King County’s Agricultural Drainage Assistance Program, farmlands are getting the maintenance they need. On Wednesday, Sept. 7, work began on the restoration of a drainage ditch at Goose and Gander Farm in Carnation. The farm, purchased by Meredith Molli and Patrick McGlothlin in January of 2015,

DITCHES FROM 1 alluvial deposits that come down the hillside and fill in the ditches which need to be maintained on a schedule to keep them from becoming so clogged that they don’t actually convey water,” Molli said. “In this particular situation we had a really big deposit that caused a lot of the water coming off the hillside to skip the ditch completely and just flow out into our field, which meant that even in the summertime, we couldn’t plow it.” Molli and McGlothlin reached out to King County’s ADAP engineers for assistance on restoring their drainage in 2015. The program provides technical and financial assistance to land owners of agricultural property. “The goal is to take ditches and small waterways in agricultural areas that have been neglected or not maintained over a certain period of time, and remove the sediment so the water can flow freely,” Molli explained. “Remove whatever invasive things might be growing in there. There is a lot of blackberry and Reed Canarygrass.” That Reed Canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) is a major problem with streams and waterways in King County. Lou Beck, engineer III with the Water and Land Resources Division of the Department of Natural Resources and Parks, explained that drainage ditches and waterways are often clogged with the plant, worsening the already negative effects of sediment in the streams. “Reed Canarygrass really chokes the ditches and it really slows the flow of water down and causes sediment to fall out quicker,” he said. “When you have that in your channel it fills up that much quicker and then layers of reed canary grass fall in it over and over and you get matted organic material.”

Lou Beck stands on the corner of the property and examines the work the sediment removal crew has done. In order to counter the invasive species, a shade canopy is planted after the work is completed. By out-competing the Reed Canarygrass and allowing other plants to cover the water, erosion of the ditches is decreased and water temperature is kept low. “It’s really a big water quality benefit,” Beck said. “If you get that shade over the stream it’s keeping the water temperatures low. That’s such a big problem we are having in this region. High water temperatures are unhealthy for the fish.” No fish were identified at Goose and Gander Farm, so the operation was able to proceed faster. Large metal plates block off a section of the ditch to stop the water flow while an excavator dug out the sediment at the bottom. The clean water from the river was pumped around the isolated section of the stream and returned to the restored ditch. According to Beck, in the past there were very few limitations on

their drainage have become more prevalent. Due to the increased regulations, many farmers stopped maintaining that aspect of their property.
NEWS BRIEFS
Changes are underway at the restaurant, Rosemont said, including new paint inside, a redesigned website (www.fcroadhouse.com) and logo, and a new sign goes up Sept. 21. The menu will also be changing, but Rosemont promised, “We plan to keep all of the menu items that our customers love and add a few others.” Upstairs, a new pub room has been added, adjacent to the Roadhouse’s six little-known guest rooms. The pub will have big-screen televisions, a pool table, and a balcony with seating.
North Bend QFC starts online ordering program QFC is bringing a new service to North Bend. As of Monday, Sept. 19, customers can order their groceries online and pick them up the following day at the North Bend QFC through the ClickList program. Customers can order on www.qfc.com/onlineshopping. North Bend is the first QFC location to offer the program. The North Bend QFC will also be working to speed up the process to make same-day grocery pickup available to customers.
New Fall City Roadhouse owners host ‘re-launch’ party The Fall City Roadhouse, a 100-year-old restaurant and inn at the junction of Highways 202 and 203, changed ownership on Aug. 1. To celebrate the transition, the new owners are Rob and Debbie Rosemont of Sammamish are putting on a “re-launch” party, Sept. 22 to 25. Rob had been a high school history teacher at Skyline High School for the past 15 years but decided it was time for a change.
“The end result is that if farmers continued to go through the process of maintaining these ditches the way they always had, they were getting in trouble for that,” he said. “There was about a 30-year span of time when a lot of people just stopped. A lot of these ditches hadn’t been touched for a very long time.” The lack of maintenance led to negative impacts on the farmland, reducing the usability of land next to the drainage ditches. King County started ADAP as a way to restore the land and help farmers use more of their property. “At first it was just hitting some really high-profile areas along channels that were big problem areas,” Beck said. “They put a lot of resource into those. Ames Creek was a very large project that was done by the ADAP program.” In 2011, King County and the Washington Departments of Ecology and Fish and Wildlife revised their best management practices in order to streamline their permitting process, requiring only one permit from land owners, the Hydraulic Project Approval, before work could begin on clearing ditches. To qualify for ADAP assistance, the drainage area must meet certain conditions including size, amount of water flow and modification history. King County engineers will physically assess the area and, if the criteria are met, will provide technical assistance to get landowners through the permitting process, as well as survey engineering plans, planting plans and archaeological review with the county. After working with King County in the preliminary stages and watching the restoration crew work on the drainage, Molli was surprised at the speed and efficiency of the ADAP process. “The process was nicer than I was expecting,” she said. “It was fairly easy from our perspective, just having people show up and do the things they needed to do.”

Rob and Debbie Rosemont are the new owners of the Fall City Roadhouse. “I was looking for a new challenge and adventure in my professional life. When I saw the Roadhouse was for sale, I decided that was what I wanted to do,” said Rob. While he doesn’t have specific experience in restaurants, he does have help. “I have some good friends who are in the industry that are mentoring me. And there was already a great staff in place at the Roadhouse, so I am in good hands.”

North Bend celebrates the blues Saturday By CAROL LADWIG Editor
North Bend’s streets and sidewalks will fill with visitors this weekend as the fourth annual Blues Walk returns to downtown. It will be a blues-lovers bonanza with live blues performances staged in 21 venues, large and small, throughout the evening, and admission to all via one ticket. The Blues Walk is hosted by Jazz Clubs NW, formerly the Boxley’s Music Fund. Yes, as in the former Boxley’s Place, and while the namesake restaurant that inspired live music events in downtown North Bend is now home to Brickyard Brewing, the beat goes on throughout the city. In the grand venue of the North Bend Theater, you’ll find Washington Blues Society-favorite Mark DuFresne Band performing at 6 p.m. and the rockin’ Red House, playing blues, R&B, soul and funk at 9 p.m., but you’ll also find intimate solo shows in cozy venues such as Birches Habitat (Annie O’Neill, 7 p.m.) and the newly opened Wildflower Wine Shop (HeatherBBlues, also 7 p.m.). “The great thing is people will also see the cur-

Piccola Cellars, opened in 2014 in the old North Bend Fire Hall, has at least four nights of live jazz each week — Fridays are scheduled in-house — via Jazz Clubs NW. Because the old fire hall engine doors are still in place, the tasting room
makes for an especially appealing venue, when the weather is good. “They can roll open those big doors for indoor-outdoor music,” said Malcolm. The emphasis on blues music makes this event unique for Jazz Clubs NW; the organization generally focuses on jazz events such as a Jazz Walk launched in Tacoma in March, and one in Olympia in August, said
Malcolm. However, he added, “It’s not just the growth of the festivals. Those will allow us to continue to support our other goals,” including music education. “We also want to get embedded in the communities that we’re serving, to give students the access to jazz and scholarships.”

Outdoor quilt show puts color on display in Duvall Sept. 24
Riding Sound Transit in an urn
Based on our current property taxes, car tabs and the amount of stuff we buy, Sound Transit 3 will cost us $2,000 a year for many years and I will never use it based on our transportation needs, the location of our house, retirement, etc. I lamented to my wife that we are being asked to spend all this money for a system I will never get to use because of my age and the construction schedule — which most likely will not be met. Not to talk about the usual cost overruns we have become used to now. She was sympathetic to my plight. She said, “Honey, I will take the urn with your ashes for a ride

The time to worry about a government shutdown is before voting By Don C. Brunell
Unfortunately, discussion over our skyrocketing national debt is only a footnote in the testy presidential campaign this year. Hopefully, the upcoming debates will change that. The new President and Congress face a day of reckoning next March when the limit on the amount of money we can borrow reaches $20.1 trillion. Either both parties reach an agreement on funding our government, or the President orders a shutdown. That’s why voters should know where the candidates stand on handling our massive federal debt before they cast their ballots. The United States Constitution and the accompanying Antideficiency Act mandates action when federal agencies and programs lack appropriated funding. If the funding gap lasts long enough, federal law requires the President to furlough non-essential
personnel and curtail agency activities and services. Since 1981, there have been five government shutdowns, the longest of which lasted 21 days (Dec. 16, 1995, to Jan. 6, 1996) under President Bill Clinton. During Barack Obama’s presidency, there was a shutdown lasting from Oct. 1 to 16, 2013, when opponents of Obamacare attempted to leverage defunding it against preventing the shutdown. Issues such as national security, climate change, excessive regulations and an underperforming economy have overshadowed our mounting deficit. President Obama will leave the White House known as “Mr. $20 Trillion,” the Association Press reported a year ago. On his watch, our debt nearly doubled. It was $10.6 trillion when he entered the Oval Office. Telling voters that every American man, woman and child owes $60,000
and every U.S. taxpayer’s share of the debt is $163,000 because of our borrowing habits doesn’t resonate. To get the point across, the Peter G. Peterson Foundation is spending millions running ads across the nation attempting to interject the national debt into the 2016 election campaign discussion. Peterson is urging voters to “Ask for a Plan!” The core message: “As the debt grows, money for other programs like education will shrink. In just eight years, interest on the debt will be our third largest federal program. Bad news for our bridges and roads.” Hopefully, voters will stop and think about what ramping up government borrowing does to our next generations of Americans—the ones who will have to pay the bills. Don C. Brunell is a business analyst, writer and columnist. He can be contacted at theBrunells@msn.com.

• Crime Stoppers, in cooperation with King County Police and the Puget Sound Railway Historical Association is offering a reward for information on an arson incident Aug. 15.

The act caused approximately $1,000 in damage to the car, which belongs to the historical association. • All it takes to understand why the North Bend Post Office is relocating is a peek through the back door at about 4 o’clock in the afternoon.

The likely site seems to be the land across from the Gateway Cafe. • Fire consumed the home of Bris and Shirley Henderson near Fall City on Monday.

PARKS FROM 1 The open house was just one way the district is looking for feedback. They have also hired Conservation Technix, a consulting firm that assists with planning, surveys and property acquisitions. In June Conservation Technix did two surveys, one for North Bend residents and one for Snoqualmie residents, to gather information on how people used the park facilities and what they would like to see from the district in the future.
Feedback: trails and pool are priorities One of the big projects Si View has been looking at is linking the various trails around the area. They are looking for feedback on possible partnerships with the various land-owning agencies in the Valley in order to help connect the trails. “You have King County out here, the city of North Bend, the state, DNR, state parks, federal parks. Where do you want us to fit in that?” Stombaugh said. “We will
always mainly stay within our boundaries but should we be partnering with these other agencies and how so? Do the residents want to see more trails? There are a lot of missing links in the trail systems out here. Do they want to see us be an advocate, lead, or partner in linking those trails together?” The community center’s pool was another recurring topic; as the overall population has increased, the pool facilities are no longer adequate. Since the pool is small for the population of the Upper Valley, Stombaugh said one of the projects being looked at is a regional family aquatic center. Steve Duh of Conservation Technix was at the open house and spoke about the feedback the agency has received so far. “I think the thing people are most interested in are things having to do with trail connectivity, low-cost recreation, as well as looking at options for either a new or expanded pool. Those are the two big ones,” Duh said. “It’s pretty clear that people are very favorable to the efforts the dis-

The district will use the data to form its plan and outline future priorities. “Then we will be meeting as a board and district and reviewing that data,”
Stombaugh said. “We will come back with a recommendation and then we will, hopefully, have a comprehensive plan.

Twenty-two people became United States citizens Sept. 6, at a naturalization ceremony at the Bellevue Library. The library hosted oathtakers from nine countries, Canada, China, Ethiopia, India, Russia, Sweden, Syria, the United Kingdom and Vietnam. It was the first ceremony the King County Library System has held in Bellevue in Debra Westwood’s 10-year tenure, she said. “Libraries are such a uniquely democratic institution. It’s immensely gratifying to be here. Many new immigrants come to our libraries to study for tests and get information on becoming a citizen. Hosting them today really feels like we’re closing the loop,” she said. Syrian-born Rami Jaamour immigrated to the U.S. 17 years ago to study computer science.

Soup Lady lends inspiration to Snoqualmie Valley Women in Business Editor
“How do you make the world a better place?” asked Snoqualmie Valley Women in Business Board President Jacqueline Fairbrass, at the organization’s Sept. 14 luncheon meeting. Participants were asked to answer that question as part of their introductions to the others at their tables, at the start of the meeting. Snoqualmie Valley Women in Business made the world a better place, on that day, by inviting the inspirational Ginger Passarelli to speak at the meeting.
Passarelli, a restaurateur and caterer from Black Diamond, is one of The Soup Ladies, a group of critical-incident-trained women and men who respond to the same sorts of emergencies that police and firefighters are called to. The difference is that while first responders are rescuing and caring for victims of crimes and disasters — the devastating Oso mudslide in 2014, the 2009 murder of four Lakewood police officers in a coffee shop — the Soup Ladies are caring for those first responders.
Phone and Internet Discounts Available to CenturyLink Customers The Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission designated CenturyLink as an Eligible Telecommunications Carrier within its service area for universal service purposes. CenturyLink’s basic local service rates for residential voice lines are $15.85-$20.00 per month and business services are $24.00-$35.00 per month. Specific rates will be provided upon request. CenturyLink participates in a government benefit program (Lifeline) to make residential telephone service more affordable to eligible low-income individuals and families. Eligible customers are those that meet eligibility standards as defined by the FCC and state commissions. Residents who live on federally recognized Tribal Lands may qualify for additional Tribal benefits if they participate in certain additional federal eligibility programs. The Lifeline discount is available for only one telephone per household, which can be either a wireline or wireless telephone. A household is defined for the purposes of the Lifeline program as any individual or group of individuals who live together at the same address and share income and expenses. Lifeline service is not transferable, and only eligible consumers may enroll in the program. Consumers who willfully make false statements in order to obtain Lifeline telephone service can be punished by fine or imprisonment and can be barred from the program. Lifeline eligible subscribers may also qualify for reliable home high-speed Internet service up to 1.5Mbps for $9.95* per month for the first 12 months of service.

“They need to eat, but they have a job to do,” Passarelli told the group of about 60 silent women and men Wednesday. “So we give them a hot meal and a hug, and we look into their eyes, and we listen.” Passarelli was inspired to start the Soup Ladies after Hurricane Katrina. She read about the emergency workers, and the need for volunteers, and realized “There was no one to feed the first responders.” Not long after, there was someone to feed them. Passarelli, with donated equipment and an initial grant from King County, started feeding emergency responders with food from her own restaurant’s kitchen and a group of volunteers that has grown to about 50 now. She got the needed training for FEMA critical incident certification and started making calls, asking “Do you need the Soup Ladies?” Often, the answer was yes. Since starting, the Soup Ladies have served more than 240,000 meals, As Passarelli spoke and showed slides of some of the group’s adventures, she laughed as often as she cried. Of her appearance on Queen Latifah’s talk show, she said “She’s tall, and she wears high heels!” And of their help at a training exercise for a SWAT team, she said “These guys are my heroes.” Displaying a photo of the mobile kitchen, a food

truck, she said “It’s an amazing kitchen. Out of that kitchen, we can do 600 meals in 90 minutes, when we’re doing soup.” On an image from the 16 days the Soup Ladies helped at the Oso disaster, she paused. “I still cry over it. It’s been two and a half years.” Cooking was, of course, the main thing the Soup Ladies did to help everyone through the Oso ordeal, but it wasn’t all. They brought blankets and stuffed animals to comfort families. They, as always, kept the food supply secure. They listened. They peeled hundreds of oranges. The rescuers, swathed in hazardous materials protection, Passarelli explained, “were so contaminated, they couldn’t peel an orange.” She stopped again, wiped her eyes, and said “So we did it for ‘em.” That experience taught her what she now tells everyone, “Every single one of us can do something that’s going to make the community better. No matter how big or small, to the person receiving it, it’s huge.” An audience member asked Passarelli, “How does this group help you?” Mainly, with donations and by volunteering, Passarelli responded. Not everyone cooks, she pointed out, and the organization could use help with bookkeeping, publicity and other needs, too. Her appearance helped the organization to emphasize the theme of the meeting, altruism.

Snoqualmie city council approves multi-city partnership and online park reservations By EVAN PAPPAS Staff Reporter
At the Sept. 12 Snoqualmie City Council meeting, Valley cities partnered to receive an economic development grant and a request for proposals for an online public park reservation system was approved. According to the city’s staff report, the Port of Seattle has an economic development partnership program that makes $962,000 of matching funds available to King County cities. Senior Planner Ben Swanson explained the program allocates $1 of grant funding per resident. In order to maximize funding, Snoqualmie, Carnation, Duvall, and Fall City will pool their populations together and will use the funds to promote Valley tourism.
The city council approved supporting the grant with $4,500 in matching funds for the $12,000 grant request. “We all decided to go in together on this and take our money and dedicate it to tourism programs throughout the Valley,” Swanson said at the meeting. “One thing that’s already been done … the Carnation Chamber of Commerce received a $10,000 grant, it was for these flyers that are currently up at the Snoqualmie Falls and they have a little map showing the Valley and businesses throughout all four cities.” The 2017 version of that flyer is one of Snoqualmie’s planned projects for the grant money. After a series of workshops hosted by Mountains to Sound Greenway and attended by local cities, chambers of commerce and
business owners, Valley representatives discussed creating a group to help promote business and agriculture in the area. This grant is one of the ways that group is raising money for their projects. Swanson said the group, which also includes North Bend, is aiming to formalize in February of 2017. The city council also approved a request for proposals for an online parks and special event permit registration service. This proposed online resource would allow people to more easily submit requests to reserve public parks and register for special event permits and would reduce the workload of the city employees tasked with managing those requests. “In 2015 we had over 1,800 individual applications or requests for parks, reservations, including
leagues for soccer fields, basketball courts and it’s become extremely cumbersome,” said Tomm Munro, administrative assistant in Parks and Public Works. “It’s very time extensive for the staff, it’s also prone to errors because we only have three people managing this.” “With the new software, we are not reinventing anything. Cities have been using this for years and years, this is a matter of going out and finding the best application for us and plugging in our specific criteria and letting it run. It’s almost like a plug and play as opposed to a full blown asset management software. We could really use this.” The next Snoqualmie City Council meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 26, at Snoqualmie City Hall.

Those receiving the award conducted advocacy efforts before and during the recently completed 2016 legislative session. Efforts by the Sound Cities Association included trips to Olympia to testify at the Legislature, forming or joining coalitions to help mobilize a city cause, contacting local media, and spearheading campaigns to educate area legislators and the public about the importance of a strong city-state partnership.

Comment period on quarry review ends Thursday The Department of Permitting and Environmental Review (DPER) is reviewing operations at the Raging River Quarry, to ensure they meet current environmental and operating standards. Public comments on site operations and the quarry’s ability to meet the conditions of its permit are welcome during the review process, through Thursday, Sept. 22. To share your comments, send e-mail to Fred White, DPER Project Manager, at fred.white@kingcounty.gov or mail them to 35030 S.E. Douglas St., Suite 210, Snoqualmie, WA 98065-9266. The quarry opened last fall and has applied for a permit to expand operations into the full 50 acres of the site. Currently, only half that area is being quarried. Neighbors opposed to the quarry have complained about the noise of operations and the truck traffic from the business since May. The Raging River Conservation Group has also formed to opposed the expansion of the quarry. Recently, TreeHouse Point in Preston also launched an online petition to halt the proposed expansion of the quarry.

Saturday is a free day at all state parks, no Discover Pass needed The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission is offering a free park day on Saturday, Sept. 24, in recognition of National Public Lands Day. Day-use visitors will not need a Discover Pass to visit state parks. This Saturday, Sept. 24, marks the 23rd 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 and the Washington departments of Natural Resources and Fish & Wildlife. The 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. Washington State Parks will have one more free day this year, Friday, Nov. 11, in honor of Veterans Day. For more information about Public Lands Day, visit http://www.publiclandsday.org.

SCHOOL FROM 1 school will have more parking than it does now. Once the temporary lots are complete and the main parking lot is excavated, the main entrance to the high school will be closed. The entrance at the back of the building will remain open and buses will drop off and pick up students along Schusman Avenue. Flaggers will direct traffic on Meadowbrook at the intersections with Railroad Ave., with S.E. Park Street, and in front of the school. The delay in permitting was a result of public notice timelines, an additional permit that was required, and staff ’s attempts to meet an “aggressive schedule” for the project, Stokes said. However, he told the board “the key critical path of the project has not been affected by the timing of our permit.” Since the baseball fields will also be demolished, the district will contract with a private organization to rent a field to be built off Boalch Avenue near Encompass in North Bend.
Elementary school students pursue perfect attendance with school slogans Snoqualmie Valley School District elementary schools are launching a new attendance initiative this school year. In an effort to improve overall attendance and reduce tardiness in students, teachers will be taking attendance daily at 9:05 a.m. and, for each day they have perfect attendance, displaying a letter of their school’s 12-letter slogan. Each time the class successfully completes the slogan, they will be recognized for the achievement. The school slogans are: • “Cascade Cubs!” for Cascade View Elementary, • “Falcons Soar!” for Fall City Elementary,
• “Panther Pride” for North Bend, • “Opstad Otters” for Opstad, and • “Cougar Pride!” for Snoqualmie. The first school to achieve the goal of at least one classroom in every grade level, kindergarten through fifth grade, completing the slogan will receive a district “Awesome Attendance Trophy.” An analysis conducted by Ginsburg, Jordan and Chang (2014) revealed that students who miss more school than their peers consistently score lower on standardized tests. These results held true at every age, in every demographic group, and in every state and city tested. For more information on attendance and absenteeism, visit http://www.attendanceworks.org.

ALARM: At 4:48 a.m., Snoqualmie firefighters responded to the Kimball Creek Village for an automatic fire alarm.

They reset the alarm and left the scene.
MONDAY, SEPT. 12 SUSPICIOUS: At 6:08 p.m., police were called to report two naked people in a vehicle on the 30000 block of S.E. Winery Road, Snoqualmie. Police went out to the parked vehicle and had the subjects changed back into their clothes.
TUESDAY, SEPT. 13 SUSPICIOUS: At 1:10 a.m., police received a report of a man with a gun on the 400 block of S.E. Orchard Drive, North Bend.

on an extinguished bark fire at the TPC Snoqualmie Ridge Golf Course, near the clubhouse. The manager asked the department to ensure the fire was out, which they did. BRUSH FIRE: At 1:27 p.m., Snoqualmie firefighters were dispatched to a brush fire at the intersection of S.E. Douglas and Bracken Place S.E. Construction workers draining a nearby retention pond heard the fire and called it in. The crew located a fire in the woods behind the PSE building, burning inside a rotten tree, estimated to be 30 feet tall. The fire seemed to be traveling up inside the tree and had spread to the surrounding brush and stumps. The Snoqualmie city arborist was called to cut down the tree and the Snoqualmie crew extinguished it on the ground. A Fall City Fire crew dug a fire line around the area. The Snoqualmie crew returned to the scene five hours later to be sure the fire was out and cold, with no extension. The cause of the fire is unclear; workers saw someone who was smoking a cigarette walk out of the woods about two hours before they noticed the fire.
WEDNESDAY SEPT. 14 ELECTRICAL ODOR: At 10:32 a.m., firefighters responded to a phoned-in report from Snoqualmie Ridge Chiropractic of an electrical odor inside the business. The caller said the odor was strongest in the front part of the office and had tripped a circuit breaker. Firefighters used thermal imaging to check for heat sources in the walls, but found none. They located the tripped breaker and determined that a hydro-massage table caused the problem, since the odor was very strong near the table. They cut the power to the table and advised the property manager to call for maintenance. TRANSFORMER FIRE: At 11:13 a.m., the department responded to a report of a transformer on fire on the Snoqualmie Parkway near Center Boulevard. Just before the call, the city had experienced a power surge, followed by a power outage. The woman who called the department said she’d heard a loud bang and went outside to find heavy grey smoke coming from the transformer near her house. Firefighters blocked off the area surrounding the smoking in-ground transformer while Puget Sound Energy technicians were called. They determined there was no fire in the transformer and began working to restore power to the area. ALARM: At 1:46 p.m., Snoqualmie firefighters responded to Isley Street, where a fire alarm was activated after the power outage. They arrived at the home, which was already evacuated, but saw no sign of fire. They assisted the homeowner in locating a faulty smoke detector and advised her to replace her smoke detectors, which were all past their useful life. MEDICAL AID: In addition to the above calls, Snoqualmie EMTs responded to eight medical aid incidents, bringing the total number of calls to date to 807.

Home & Garden Snoqualmie local creates wildlife habitats from dead trees for more than 40 years By Ken Bevis,
DNR Stewardship Wildlife Biologist
Reprinted with permission of the Washington DNR In the forest, trees exist in many phases simultaneously, from seedlings to giants, and then as standing dead trees (snags) and down logs. Dead trees are an essential part of forest ecology. Well over 100 species of wildlife in Pacific Northwest forests depend on dead wood for crucial habitat. Woodpeckers, songbirds, squirrels, salamanders and owls use these woody structures as places to feed, and as cover. “Wildlife tree” refers to trees with dead wood features (holes, cracks, loose bark) providing habitats for cavity-dwelling species.
“I started thinking about it and would come home and make wildlife trees. I started in gardens and with landscape trees.” Tim Brown, Frontier Tree Service Nearly one-third of forest wildlife species must have

many reasons. Rather than always removing whole trees, arborists and loggers can easily create longlived, high quality wildlife trees by shortening (“topping”) the tree, then leaving the stem for weather and woodpeckers to do their work creating habitat.

“Sometimes I’ll leave some green branches so the tree dies slowly and remains stable longer.” Tim Brown, Frontier Tree Service

Example of jagged top created with chainsaw cuts and hammer blows.
TREES FROM 11 climber or someone in a bucket truck. They also should be a long-lived species, in a location where
future safety issues or development won’t require cutting. Brown recommends conifers, particularly Douglas fir, cedar or ponderosa pine, as they tend to last longer. However, all species can
function as wildlife trees. We identified a clump of Douglas fir, recently dead, approximately 24” in diameter and sound enough to climb. Brown ascended the tree with climbing gear, cut off
the top about 45 feet up, and used a chainsaw to create a jagged top. The overall height of the wildlife tree should be less than the distance to a target, unless there is very little traffic. The shortened tree will have little weight on the top, so is unlikely to simply topple over. In general, wildlife tree stubs fall apart in place over many years rather than falling over. How much of the trunk to remove when creating a wildlife tree? “We want the tree to stay up as long as possible,” says Brown, who recommends assessing potential trees for lean, overall stability and sway. In general, the larger the diameter, the better. The top diameter of cut trees should be at least 6 inches. Trees are generally cut to one or two thirds of their height, 25 to 60 feet. Most
branches are removed, with some stubs retained when possible. “Sometimes I’ll leave some green branches so the tree dies slowly and remains stable longer,” notes Brown. Causing the tree to die slowly allows its still-living roots to hold it up longer. The top of the tree should be “roughed up” with a chainsaw. Make a series of v-shaped cuts across the top, then crisscross those with the saw
from multiple horizontal angles. “The top is jagged to better collect moisture and organic matter. Make it slightly concave in the middle to collect water,” Brown said. He also makes a few deep vertical cuts down into the stem at the top to help introduce water and rot.

Boeing announces: University Grants The university grants are being distributed to three Washington universities. ■ The University of Washington (UW) is receiving $500,000 to help under-represented high school students attend and succeed at UW. This includes support for the Dream Project, which trains UW students to mentor first-generation and low-income high school students.
$6 million in education grants for Washington
“The University of Washington has a long, proud partnership with Boeing, dating back to the founding of the company a century ago. This gift continues that tradition and will help more students realize their potential, whether that’s thanks to mentors from the Dream Project or the experiences they have during an alternative spring break. We’re grateful to Boeing for its support of students throughout our University and across our state,” said University of Washington president Ana Mari Cauce. ■ Washington State University (WSU) is receiving $250,000 to support new coursework and equip new labs at the WSU North Puget Sound at Everett campus, currently scheduled to open in 2017. The campus’ new Fabrication Lab will be named the Boeing Innovation Studio. “WSU established a presence in North Puget Sound to be able to deliver ready-to-work employees directly to the aerospace industry and other advanced manufacturing industries in our region,” said WSU president Kirk Schulz. “This generous gift from The Boeing Company will allow us to equip our new building in Everett with the type of sophisticated technologies our students will be working with once they enter the workforce.” ■ Seattle University (SU) will receive a grant of $250,000 for the College of Science and Engineering to improve retention rates of nontraditional students in SU’s undergraduate engineering and computer science programs. “Seattle University is grateful to receive this significant and generous gift from The Boeing Company,” said Stephen Sundborg, S.J., president. “Boeing’s gift recognizes the commitment Seattle U has made to be a leader in recruiting and retaining women and people of color in our engineering and computer science programs. The gift also complements ongoing initiatives at the university to be a model for diversity and inclusive excellence, both of which go hand-in-hand with educational excellence.”

“Boeing remains consistent in its investment in our future here in Washington,” says Commercial Airplanes CEO Ray Conner Boeing is awarding $6 million in grants to more than 50 nonprofits and education institutions in Washington. The grants are geared toward programs that enhance STEM education and workforce training, and educational and career pathway opportunities for students – particularly for underserved students who historically have not pursued these career paths. Included in these grants is $1 million to further expand horizons for students seeking a STEM education and enhanced learning opportunities at local universities. Boeing expects a substantial portion of its Washington workforce to retire during the next several years and is working to ensure that students in the state have the education and skills to fill these jobs. The grants are part of Boeing’s ongoing commitment to Washington to prepare local students for the opportunities being created in the state. “Boeing will be a significant jobs provider in Wash-
ington for decades to come. Our hope and goal is that those future jobs will continue to be filled by kids who grow up right here,” said Boeing Commercial Airplanes President and CEO Ray Conner. “We are working hard today to give Washington students opportunities for employment within aerospace, manufacturing and other STEM-related fields when they graduate. Despite the always dynamic aerospace industry, Boeing remains consistent in its investment in our future here in Washington.” The additional $5 million in grants range from $25,000 to $550,000 and are designed to provide a continuum of learning and education resources for Washington’s younger residents. Some of the largest grants will support: Thrive Washington and its focus upon early learning; Washington STEM and its K12 learning initiatives; and SkillUp Washington’s manufacturing pathways partnership with community and technical colleges.

New plane sales key
to boosting Boeing’s big jet production and employment
A
Boeing sees the 787 production rate rising to 14 airplanes a month toward the end of the decade. Pictured is the 787 final assembly line in Everett, Wash.
t 12 airplanes a month, Boeing is building 787s at the highest rate ever for a twin-aisle program. But in recent months, Greg Smith, chief financial officer and executive vice president of Corporate Development & Strategy said the Boeing is “seeing areas of softness in the widebody market” and will “watch that closely and match that to our production needs.” “Ultimately, it is matching supply and demand,” said Smith, while speaking to analysts and investors in New York in August. Smith explained that Boeing’s Sales & Marketing team is tracking the health of the commercial airplanes market and balancing that with the company’s order backlog, current production needs and other factors. Because of market demand, its twin-aisle sibling, the 777, is set to go down to a seven-per-month build rate in 2017. Smith added that there are many sales campaigns
“Ultimately, it is matching supply and demand.” — Greg Smith, Chief financial officer and executive vice president of Corporate Development & Strategy underway but “the real question” is whether those campaigns “come to fruition in the time period that we need.” On the 777 program, Boeing has said that it needs to secure 40 to 50 new orders a year to fill the production line as it transitions to the new 777X airplane. So far this year, the company has won eight net orders. In the next couple of months, “we’ll have better clarity on whether those campaigns true up in the time period
we need them to fill the [777X] bridge,” Smith said. “And if they don’t, then we’ll make an adjustment accordingly.” On the 787 program, the company has more time to make a decision on whether to go up in rate or stay at 12 airplanes a month. Smith cautioned against focusing on any one Boeing program and reminded them that the company boasts a large portfolio of market-leading commercial and defense products and services. Additionally, a large and diverse order backlog and a healthy long-term marketplace — which is expected to demand more than 39,000 commercial airplanes and trillions of dollars’ worth of defense products — provide a strong foundation from which to deliver improving financial results, he said. “It’s all about being competitive in the marketplace, winning on those 39,000 airplanes going forward and capturing our share on the defense market,” Smith said.

What was the first modern Boeing airplane to carry passengers? In 1933 Boeing unveiled its newest plane, the Model 247. The 247 had a sleek, streamlined, all-metal body and powerful Pratt & Whitney Wasp engines. The 247 was the first modern airliner and established fundamentals of passenger airplane design that are still used today.
Summer high school interns gain more than hands-on experience
Where did Boeing begin? The Boeing Co. began in a lakeside hangar in Seattle. Today, the aerospace giant sprawls across international borders: an engineering design center in Moscow, a plant in Melbourne that makes a part for 787 wings, an airliner service center in Dubai, and dozens of other operations around the world. What is the B&W? Bill Boeing and his friend, George Westervelt, created the B&W, named for the initials in their last names. Westervelt moved back east before the B&W flew in June 1916. The plane performed well, as did a second one completed that fall. World War I brought airplane orders, but what happened when peace was declared? Bill Boeing said loyalty to his employees kept him from closing the company between 1920 and 1921. The Boeing Airplane Co. accepted just about any work it could get to keep its core team together. They made furniture, a handful of fast boats, and fixtures for a corset shop in Walla Walla.

41 students worked at six Puget Sound Boeing locations
W
hile at the Robotics World Championships in St. Louis, Missouri, Ryan Kroon, now a senior at Auburn Mountainview High School, received a call from his mom to tell him about the Boeing high school internship program. His inspiration to follow up and apply was his dad’s long service with the company. “He has worked for Boeing for 32 years now,” Kroon said. “I’ve always been in awe of what my dad does here in Boeing since I was a little boy and it was a dream come true to be able to work alongside him.” As part of the annual Boeing high school Internship programs, 41 high school students from nine school districts across Puget Sound got hands-on engineering and fabrication work experience at Boeing Commercial Airplanes and Boeing Defense, Space and Security this summer. Interns have the opportunity to work fulltime at six different Boeing sites: Auburn, Everett, Frederickson, Kent, Seattle, Tukwila. Over the past four years, more than one hundred high school students have participated. While at Boeing, students gain
knowledge in safety awareness, manufacturing, engineering processes and quality. The programs are one way the company attracts and excites potential future employees. According to Harris Sullivan, a Fabrication Human Resources leader, the program reinforces the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education taught in public schools. “Students are typically already involved in disciplines such as robotics, engineering, advanced mathematics, or computer science. The internship allows students to connect their educational classroom and lab learnings to the industrial applications of these concepts in an aerospace manufacturing environment.” After hearing about the internship from Marianne Allen, a Henry M. Jackson High School Career Center manager, Andrew Gothro was inspired to apply. “I knew what a great opportunity that it was,” Gothro says. “Plus, I have heard great things about Boeing from mentors on my school’s robotic team (who) work at Boeing.” There is high demand and fierce com-
What’s new in 777X? The 777X will be the largest and most efficient twin-engine jet in the world, unmatched in every aspect of performance. It will include larger windows, a wider cabin, new lighting and enhanced architecture. The 777X is the future of flight unfolding. That’s a better way to fly.

petition for these internship positions. Excellent attendance, a 3.0 grade point average, strong communication skills, personal discipline, productivity, teamwork, personal ethics, interest and strong enthusiasm are minimum requirements for students who apply. Several other elements influence the selection process including teachers, counselors and school administrators participating in the process. “A lot of these students have experience with blueprint-reading and robotics,” said Jennifer Long, Boeing Fabrication internship project manager. “They’re a very impressive group. Our hope is that our interns will gain experience and be exposed to different career opportunities at Boeing so they can explore options and then learn from other people’s career paths.” Internships began with training, followed by students being assigned to work areas where they each were paired up with at least two Boeing mentors. According to Hannah Gamache, a senior at Puyallup High School, her mentors taught her the ways of the company and how things run. “The (Boeing Frederickson) site leader, Aditya Singh, told us to follow our passions no matter what they are, as our passions will bring us contentment and satisfaction within our lives.”

Eastside mayors discuss challenges, opportunities, at Leadership luncheon By Catherine Krummey Reporter Newspapers
Mayors from across the Eastside gathered Sept. 9 at Cascadia College in Bothell for Leadership Eastside’s annual mayors’ panel. Leadership Eastside CEO James Whitfield moderated the panel. The luncheon event also allowed participants in Leadership Eastside’s leadership development classes and others the opportunity to participate in small group discussions about the challenges and opportunities facing the Eastside, which fed into the topics for the panel discussion. When asked what they are most proud of in their communities, many of the mayors cited their work to curb the effects of climate change. “Environmental sustainability is something we’ve been working on,” said Mercer Island Mayor Bruce Bassett, citing his city’s participation in a climate collaborative. “I’m really proud of our Climate Action Plan,” Kirkland Mayor Amy Walen said, adding her city has been working hard to reduce its carbon footprint. Others said collaboration, both inside and outside of their own communities, has been key. “Redmond’s contribution to the greater good

The room was packed for the Leadership Eastside event on Friday, Sept. 9 at Cascadia College in Bothell. is regionalism,” said Redmond Mayor John Marchione, going on to cite work with other communities on transportation and working with Issaquah for dispatching services. For Issaquah, the city’s social media usage for neighborhood outreach has been an area of growth, according to Issaquah Mayor Fred Butler. “It’s just one tool to connect with citizens.” When asked about the challenges facing their cities, dealing with the growing pains of the region was touched on by all of the mayors. The Eastside’s growing population is hav-
ing widespread effects in the area, on everything from affordable housing and access to child care to transportation and infrastructure. “We have a crumbling infrastructure,” Kenmore Mayor David Baker said of the area as a whole, adding that wear and tear on the roads and bridges is hard to stay ahead of with the increased traffic coming through. Financing these road construction projects also can be difficult, especially for the smaller cities. “One of the biggest challenges small cities have is funding infrastructure
projects,” said Woodinville Mayor Bernie Talmas. “We really have inadequate transportation options available,” Renton Mayor Denis Law said, adding officials from the cities, counties and the state of Washington are trying to work together to establish a solution. “Regional traffic requires a regional solution,” Butler added. Some of the mayors tied
the increased traffic to a lack of affordable housing. “People drive north and south because that’s where they work, but they can’t afford to live there,” said Duvall Mayor Will Ibershof. With all of the new housing needed to accommodate the Eastside’s new residents, the impact on the environment also is of concern to some. “In Sammamish, we’re
concerned about the impact of development on the environment,” said Sammamish Mayor Don Gerend, adding there is a concentrated effort to seek out low-impact development projects. Marchione added he’d like to see a growth policy in place that is environmentally friendly. The mayors also discussed the need to be more welcoming to new residents in the area. Bothell Mayor Andy Rheaume said there are a lot of efforts to make that happen, making the welcoming movement seem a little uncoordinated. “That, to me, is something we could coordinate better.” The topic of growth continued to dominate the panel as the mayors discussed what’s next for the Eastside. “The region’s going to continue to grow,” Butler said. “We need to figure out how we can accommodate that.” “It’s a good thing that we’re growing,” Rheaume added. “But we’re dealing with the repercussions of that. We have to live within our means.”

Mount Si falls to Bothell Cougars; Irish, Bonda have big nights By CAROL LADWIG Editor
In a game marked by penalties and two scoreless quarters, the Mount Si High School football team still found some wins to celebrate after its Sept. 17 loss to the Bothell Cougars, 31-21. For starters, it was the third consecutive game of the season with no rain, and it was a big night for two Wildcat players, Jesiah Irish and Max Bonda. Irish, a junior alternating at quarterback and wide receiver, scored two of the team’s touchdowns — one on a 56-yard pass from Zeke Barden — and added 120 yards in pass receiving to his stats for the season. Bonda, a senior, scored a touchdown and rushed for a net gain of 145 yards. Also, despite a loss of 75 yards to penalties, “We won the second half,” said head coach Charlie Kinnune. “We cut down on our mistakes as the game went on, we continued to compete and fight.” Bothell is tough opponent for the young Wildcats, Kinnune said, in a schedule

Running back Max Bonda carries the ball Friday night as the Wildcats hosted the Bothell Cougars. Mount Si lost the game 21-31. full of tough opponents. “Their quarterback (Jacob Sirmon) is a Division 1 quarterback,” he said, adding, “I think you saw two of the toughest defense in the leagues battle it out on Friday.” He’s proud of the team’s work, he said, but concerned about the penalty
count and the opportunities they cost the Wildcats. The game began with a 26-yard field goal at 9:05 in the first, by Bothell junior Andrew Isaacson. The Cougars followed up with a three-yard touchdown run by senior Parker Chamberlain and an extra point from Isaacson. In the
second quarter, Mount Si’s Irish scored on a 13-yard pass from Barden, but Reed Paradissis’ extra point kick was blocked, setting the score at 6-10. Before the half, Bothell scored twice more, Jacob Stansberry with a 35-yard pass from Sirmon, and Tuli Tavaga on a six-yard pass. Both extra
points were good. In the third quarter, Mount Si scored two unanswered touchdowns, Irish on a 56-yard pass from Barden, with a good kick from Paradissis, and Bonda, on a 3-yard run, with a two-point conversion by Justin Lutz. At the end of the third, the score was 21-24. In the fourth quarter, Bothell increased its lead and sealed the win with an 11-yard touchdown pass to DaVicious Wilson. “We’re so young, in so many ways,” he said, “we’re kind of rubbing the green off, and we’re closing that gap.”
He looks to the leadership of the team’s three senior running backs, Bonda, Shane Moses, and Austin Ross, in future games. “We’re going to put the ball in their hands when we can,” he said. Most importantly, he said, “Everybody’s got to show great resiliency. I’m talking about parents and coaches. They have to follow the kids’ example, because they are showing the way.” The Wildcats host Issaquah at 7 p.m. Friday, and as far as Kinnune is concerned, that game “can’t come soon enough.”

Cedarcrest cross country takes top spots at Apple Ridge Invite On Saturday, Sept. 17, the Cedarcrest cross country squad competed in the Apple Ridge Invitational in Cowiche. The Cedarcrest boys finished with two wins; the girls placed second in the first race and had strong placements in all the day’s events. The meet was held at Apple Ridge, in an area surrounding an apple orchard, west of Yakima. There are three, three-mile race courses which vary in difficulty. Coaches place runners in one of the three races while planning for team score purposes — the top two runners in each race contribute to the overall team score. So, coaches split up the top runners so they have a few in each of the three races. The first race was on a relatively flat course and the two highest CHS placers for both genders were Ben Benson, second, Justin Young, 13th, Lily Krueger, second, and Elsie Dombek, fourth. In the second race, which incorporated a couple of uphill climbs, Cedarcrest’s Grant Van Valkenburg placed first, Daniel Murphy, eighth, Madi Shinn, second, and Kate Vergillo, seventh. The third race was the most challenging course. It
had one of the uphill climbs from the second race but at the two-mile marker there was a long 600-meter climb that is not for the faint of heart. The top CHS scorers were Ian Fay, second, Emmett Klaiber, fifth, Alicia Krivanek, third, and Megan Reid, sixth. This year’s version of the meet was a step up from previous years, said Cedarcrest Coach Bruce McDowell, as some new teams in the event increased the level of competition. Cedarcrest had a lot of candidates for Athletes of the Meet, McDowell said, naming Ben Benson, Daniel Murphy, Alex Perry, Lily Krueger and Elsie Dombek for the honor. Many runners improved on their personal records at the meet, McDowell said. Returners ran one minute or more faster than they did at same meet last year and this was the first race beyond two miles for the “rookies,” McDowell said, “so it allowed them an opportunity to see what running that third mile was all about.” The next CXC meet will be the Bellevue Cross Country Invitational Saturday, Sept. 24 at Lake Sammamish State Park.
