It would be hard to find many people still invested in community activism or musical performance beyond 85 years old. It would be harder to find someone involved in both. But that’s exactly what the late James “Jim” Thomas Smith accomplished. Smith, who died Jan. 25 at 93, was a longtime community figure in Queen Anne, where he resided for 60 years. Throughout his time in Seattle, Smith was a graphic designer, a community council representative and a member of the Seattle chapter of the SeaChordsmen, a barbershop quartet group. Upon his move to Queen Anne with his wife in 1962, Smith became an active member of the Queen Anne Community Council, later becoming one of the inaugural members of the Terminal 91 Neighbors Advisory Committee for the Port of Seattle. Smith served as a Shoreline Committee Chair and was on the Queen Anne Community Council Board of Trustees for over half a century. “Jim was passionate to give back to his community,” Ellen Monrad, former president of the Queen Anne Community Council and

Magnolia committee seeking funds to beautify village with flowers By Jessica Keller

QA&Mag News editor

Queen Anne & Magnolia News file photo Flowers hang from poles in Magnolia Village. The Magnolia Village Beautification Committee is raising money to purchase and maintain this year’s flowers.

The Magnolia Beautification Committee is hoping neighborhood residents will help maintain the improvements to Magnolia Village by donating money this month as part of a new campaign. Residents can still donate money to the “Show Your Love Campaign,” launched by the Magnolia Beautification Committee in honor of February and Valentine’s Day. Unlike last year’s February love campaign, which helped raise money for Phases 2 and 3 of the Reimagine Magnolia Village Beautification Project, the “Show Your Love Campaign” will be an annual fundraiser each February with the focus on maintenance, Magnolia Beautification Com-

mittee chair Cheryl McQuiston said. “The tagline is, ‘It isn’t inexpensive to be beautiful,’ ” she said. Money raised in the “Show Your Love Campaign” this year and future years will go toward purchasing, installation, watering, fertilization and maintenance of the hanging flower baskets that make Magnolia Village cheerful and inviting each spring. The cost breaks down to $504 per basket, and they are ordered through and maintained by Magnolia Garden Center staff, McQuiston said. This year, the committee has ordered 43 baskets to hang from the 22 poles already installed. This year’s hanging baskets will replace the banners hanging from

JAMES (JIM) SMITH Oct 24, 1928 - Jan 25, 2022 It is with extreme sadness that we announce the passing of James (Jim) Thomas Smith on January 25, 2022 at 93 years old. An artist, skier, singer, cyclist, sailor, musician, pilot, community activist and devoted husband to his wife of 62 years. His immense talents and thirst for life was an inspiration, and he will be deeply missed by so many. Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on October 24, 1928 to Thomas Edwin Smith and Lillian Adele (Olson) Smith. He was a middle child to his two beloved sisters, Patricia Anne Rhay and Barbara Jean Ashmore. The family moved to Seattle in 1930 where his father worked as a state politician. In 1945, the governor appointed Jim’s father to the position of Warden of the Washington State Penitentiary and Jim attended Walla Walla High School. He found many perks of being the son of the Warden living on the prison grounds as inmates took over his normal household chores and the motor pool shop inside the prison restored his Model A. He graduated from Wa- Hi in 1947 and attended Whitman College before enlisting in the U.S. Army. Jim served three years in the army before venturing out to explore his passions in 1951. Jim headed to New York to pursue a career as an artist. He began working with Gray Advertising Agency while attending Pratt Institute. His heart called him back to the Northwest in 1956, where he attended Seattle’s Burnley Art School and worked as a Graphic Artist throughout his career. Seattleites would head for a week of skiing at Sun Valley every February. It was there that Jim first met his future wife, Joan Jamieson, although it wasn’t until a year later when they saw each other skiing at Stevens Pass that

the romance began to blossom. After a two yearlong courtship, the couple was married on August 29, 1959. In 1962, the couple purchased their lifetime home on the Queen Anne hillside overlooking Elliott Bay. Jim served as an active member of the Queen Anne Community Council Board of Trustees for over 50 years. He was also an active member of the Barbershop Harmony Society since 1956 and sang with Seattle SeaChordsmen for over 63 years. Jim and Joan loved the outdoors and adventure. They were avid bicyclists; biking to and from work and enjoying bicycle vacations around Europe. At 78, Jim rode his bike from Seattle to Walla Walla for his 60th High School Reunion. During the ski season you would find them on a mountain skiing Double Diamonds or on the outback. Sailing the waters of Puget Sound in their sailboat was a favorite during the summer months. At 66 years old, Jim became an Ultralight pilot and built an “Air-Bike” from a project kit. He flew out of Arlington Airfield for 17 years, logging 401 hours of pilot time. His lifetime of interests did not stop there. Jim was a member of the Puget Sound Group of NW painters, played the bagpipes, loved sports cars and adored his cats. Jim is survived by his loving wife, Joan, along with eight nieces, a nephew, and many grandnieces and grandnephews. A memorial service will be held at the Queen Anne Baptist Church on Sunday, February 27th, at 3:30 p.m.

member of the NAC, said. “He served until he was 91— that’s a long time to be involved in any one activity for the community.” The Neighbors Advisory Committee was born in the 1980s in part from Smith’s dislike of excessive noise and lights, according to Don Harper, a former collaborator with Smith in the Queen Anne Community Council and NAC, who joined the latter in the early 2000s. “People don’t get that [noise] just reverberates between the sides of the hill,” Harper said. “By the time I got on [NAC], noise had started to lessen from the port. … The original members like Jim had to really push hard on the port, and they really helped set up the way that NAC works now, ​​which is much more accommodating.” Smith’s work on the NAC pushed the Port of Seattle to adopt similar programs throughout the Seattle area, encouraging further community collaboration and development, according to Harper. “The Port loves [the NAC],” Harper said. “They’ve started doing it in the Duwamish area, and are trying to do it at SeaTac Airport. They realized that they can engage with the communities in an honest way. … It’s really a testament to [Smith], how long he was willing to stay there and continue his efforts and keep teaching us new people there.” Smith was also an avid musician. Smith was first introduced to barbershop through the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America in 1955, before moving to Seattle and joining the SeaChordsmen the next year. Over Smith’s 60-year tenure with the SeaChordsmen, he served in almost every elected chapter position. David Rice, a current member of the SeaChordsmen, recalled Smith’s time with the group. “He really didn’t have any musical training or anything,” Rice said. “He just had a love of barbershop, and he opened every

weekly practice that we had up until, I would say, four years ago. … He was thoroughly invested and he just shared that passion with everybody who came and participated. And he was always very welcoming.” In spite of his age, Smith also remained an avid outdoorsman, often biking, skiing and sailing. Smith even biked from Queen Anne to Walla Walla for his 50th high school reunion in 1997. “[The SeaChordsmen] would have these retreats over in Port Orchard to get ready for our summer show,” Rice said. “So I drove over to Port Orchard, and about a mile from where this place was, I [saw] this guy riding his bike. And I realized, it’s Jim Smith. You know, the guy’s in his 80s and he’s ridden his bike over to Port Orchard to be at our retreat.” Smith was born in Minneapolis in 1928, but his family moved to Seattle in 1930. After graduating from Walla Walla High School, serving in the U.S. Army and traveling across the country, Smith enrolled in Pratt Institute in New York and later Burnley Art School upon his return to Seattle in 1956. There, he married Joan Jamieson in 1959, who was Smith’s wife of 62 years until his death. Above all else, Smith will be remembered for his service to his community and his kindness, Monrad said. “Every Valentine’s Day, he encouraged the Queen Anne Community Council board to [get] the SeaChordsmen to come and serenade their Valentines,” Monrad said. “[And] one year for Seafair, when the Blue Angels were going to be performing over Elliott Bay, [Smith] invited my family to his house to view the Blue Angels. … My son has never forgotten that experience. So Jim was generous with his views and generous with the community.” A memorial for Smith is planned for 3:30 p.m., Feb. 27 at Queen Anne Baptist Church, the very same church where the SeaChordsmen rehearse.

Post office should replace drive-up mailbox Editor, I was upset when the drive-up mailbox was removed from behind the post office in Magnolia. I lobbied for a new box just off Howe, by the tennis courts, many years ago. Another neighbor lobbied for a drive-up blue box at the U.S. Bank. Both are now gone, and we are without any drive-up access for mailing. The one at U.S. Bank was removed for construction that may never happen to the north. The one at the tennis courts was damaged, and the post office is slow to replace it. Previously it was removed when someone had stolen mail from it. Why does it take so long? Months without access to a drive-up mailbox for the elderly and disabled who rely on it? I urge Magnolia residents, who like me still send personal mail to friends and family, call and

Residents can comment on Seattle redistricting plans The Seattle Redistricting Commission is examining how to redraw the boundaries of Seattle’s seven City Council Districts and is inviting community members to learn about the process and provide feedback. Members of the public can review drafts of proposed maps and offer feedback at https://www.seattle.gov/redistricting/how-toparticipate through July 31. The Seattle Redistricting Commission, an independent, non-partisan body of five appointed Seattle residents, is responsible for redrawing the new council district boundaries to reflect the city’s population growth. The commission follows City Charter mandated criteria using geographic information system expertise and the latest 2020 Census data to draw new boundaries and produce districts that are approximately equal in population. To the extent practical, the Commission must also consider additional factors, such as following existing district boundaries, recognizing waterways and geographic boundaries, and acknowledging Seattle’s communities and neighborhoods. The consideration of public input and a minimum of one public forum per council district is required during this process. On Feb. 15, the Commission reviewed four draft maps drawn using the mandated technical criteria. A discussion of those maps will now begin and both public comment and participation

Contact High: A Visual History of Hip-Hop Through March 2023 They say a picture’s worth 1,000 words, and that’s especially true of one of music’s most language-conscious genres: hip-hop. Contact High explores four decades of photography, from the late 1970s to today, documenting a revolution not just in music, but in politics, race relations, fashion, and culture, according to a MoPOP press release. Through more than 170 iconic images of hip-hop’s most influential artists — Missy Elliott, Jay-Z, Queen Latifah, Tupac and more — including contact sheets that give us a rare glimpse into the creative process of a photo session, Contact High examines the evolution of hip-hop, connecting us with the experiences, identities and places that have shaped the world’s most popular music genre. Exhibition highlights include:

• Exclusive images of some of hip-hop’s biggest influences, including Missy Elliot, Jay-Z, Queen Latifah, Kanye West, and Tupac Shakur. • More than 75 unedited contact sheets ranging from Barron Claiborne’s iconic Notorious B.I.G. portraits to images of Aaliyah, Wu-Tang Clan, Sir Mix-A-Lot and Kanye West. • The Dapper Dan jacket made for Rakim and MF DOOM’s mask. • In addition to photographs, artifacts from MoPOP’s permanent collection such as early rap battle fliers, Grandmaster Flash’s turntables, Tupac Shakur manuscripts, Flavor magazines, and costumes from Sha-Rock and The Notorious B.I.G., add to the understanding of hiphop culture. • A documentary short film featuring Contact High photographers at work and in conversation, including Barron Claiborne, Brian “B+” Cross, Eric Coleman, Estevan Oriol, Jorge Peniche, Jamel Shabazz, Janette Beckman, Joe Conzo, Jack McKain, Dana Scruggs, and Danny Clinch. The film is produced by the Annenberg Foundation and Radical Media.

Gun altercation: At 5:58 p.m. Feb. 15, a victim was sitting in his car when a suspect walked up to his window and asked, “You selling weed?” The victim said the suspect opened the passenger side door, entered his car and pointed a handgun at him. Once in the car, the suspect grabbed the victim’s gun that was sitting on the center console. The suspect and the victim began to fight over the two handguns. The victim’s handgun fired one round into the rear seat of the victim’s car. They continued to struggle and ended up outside of the car, fighting in the parking lot. The victim was bitten on the hand, which left an open, bleeding wound. The suspect pistol whipped the victim in the head multiple times. The 25-round magazine fell from the victim’s gun during the struggle. The suspect finally separated and ran to his nearby car, still in possession of both guns. The suspect fled in a gray Toyota Camry. Officers found a cell phone and one shoe in the victim’s car that did not belong to the victim. The suspect was not located by patrol.

How come some people can’t see color? Our brains have the amazing ability to gather information and interpret it. This ability to gather and interpret — or perceive — is a big part of what helps humans see colors. Our eyes have tiny cones that receive light, turn it into chemical energy and activate nerves that can send information to the brain. You might see an apple and think to yourself, “That’s the color red.” My friend Rachna Narula, an optometrist at Washington State University, told me all about it. You may remember that the colors people see correspond with different wavelengths of light. Part of the reason someone can see red is because they have a type of cone that picks up on certain long wavelengths of light. While red cones pick up on long wavelengths of light, blue cones pick up on short wavelengths. Green cones pick up on middle wavelengths. A person with full-color vision typically has three kinds of cones: red, blue and green. But sometimes a person’s cones might be a little different. They may not have some of those main three cones, which means they can’t pick up on certain wavelengths of light. Or the cones might not work very well. Narula told me the most common color deficiency is red-green. That means that the cones aren’t able to pick up on long wave-

lengths and middle wavelengths of light. People with this kind of color deficiency may have trouble spotting the differences between colors, the brightness of colors or the shades of colors. Narula also showed me a book that optometrists use to test how people see color. It’s called the “Ishihara Test for Color Blindness” and it was designed by a professor at the University of Tokyo in 1917. Each page features different colored dots that make up a background and a number. For instance, someone with full-color vision might see a

background of green dots and the number “5” made up of red dots. But someone who has red-green color deficiency would see a completely different number. If you’re like me, you might be curious to find out not only how people can perceive different colors but why. Narula told me color vision deficiency is a kind of hereditary trait. This means it is something that can be passed from parents to their offspring. Most people who experience color vision deficiency were born with it. It’s in their genes.

She also told me there are some people who can see many more colors than most of the population. Narula said these people have a fourth cone. Some scientists are studying genetics to learn more about this kind of fourth cone and find out exactly how this kind of vision works. Like humans, most cats also have the three main kinds of cones: red, blue and green. Dogs have just two kinds of cones. You know, it sure is interesting to think about what it might be like to see the world through different types of cones than my own. I

Northwest Flower & Garden Festival returns in the wake of omicron By Erica Browne Grivas Contributing writer

For the first time since its inception in 1998, the Northwest Flower and Garden Festival was missing in 2021. The secondlargest horticultural show in the country, the show marks the unofficial end of winter and a vision of gardens to come. This year the festival returned to the Washington State Convention Center from Feb. 9 through Feb. 15 — to appreciative crowds. Some familiar ingredients — like display gardens, seminars and the lively marketplace — welcomed them like old friends. Elandan Gardens Ltd, http:// www.elandangardens.com/, of Bremerton created a display garden weaving together ancient bonsai, stonework and driftwood. Ugandan-born batik artist Paul Nzalamba, https://www. nzalamba-artworks.com/, from Los Angeles, California, was back in his booth sharing the poignant stories behind each scene. Area garden columnist Marianne Binetti, http://www.binet-

tigarden.com/, was emceeing the raucous “Container Wars” event that pitted designers against each other and the clock to create the best potted arrangement. There was no escaping this was a different show this year, however. Vaccinations and test results were checked before tickets could be taken, and attendees were required to wear masks. The festival offered tests on the street level of the convention center. Leading up to the show, fear of the highly contagious omicron variant of COVID-19 took its toll on the numbers of vendors, exhibitors and speakers, as well as visitors attending. Ticket sales were down from previous years by 30 percent. With five fewer large display gardens than in 2020, the entire City Living display — usually packing the Skybridge — was brought over to fill a wall in the main display area. Tour buses canceled, speakers bowed out and longtime vendors like Swansons Nursery, https://www.swansonsnursery.com/, and Butchart Gardens, https://www.butchartgardens.com/, begged off.

But resilience rang through the event in the spirit that has gotten designers to build mountains and waterfalls in days for decades now. Experienced speakers with multiple topics in their repertoire stepped up to do two or three talks if needed, so the 90 seminars promised would still go on. Garden designer Sue Goetz of Gig Harbor, www.thecreativegardener.com, was asked to add an extra lecture in January because another speaker couldn’t make it. She had reservations at first and intended to go only when scheduled and leave if areas became too crowded. “I think as much as could have been was done to be able to have the show and meet in person — it worked.” Ravenna Gardens, www. ravennagardens.com, was offered Butchart Gardens’ usual booth space, allowing a generous flow with wider aisles, which was helpful with a crowd-spooked populace. The scheduling of the show had

Senior Scene Savvy Senior: How to convince an elderly parent to stop driving Dear Savvy Senior, What is the best way to deal with older drivers who probably shouldn’t be driving anymore? My dad, who’s 86, is bound and determined to keep driving as long as he’s alive. Backseat Daughter Dear Backseat, For many families, talking to an elderly parent about giving up the car keys can be a very difficult and sensitive topic. While there’s no one way to handle this issue, here are a few suggestions that can help you evaluate your dad’s driving and ease him out from behind the wheel when the time is right. Take a Ride To get a clear picture of your dad’s driving abilities, a good first step, if you haven’t already done so, is to take a ride with him and watch for problem areas. For example: Does he have difficulty seeing, backing up or changing lanes? Does he react slowly, get confused easily or make poor driving decisions? Does he drive at inappropriate speeds, tailgate or drift between lanes? Also, has

FESTIVAL, FROM PAGE 6 distinct impacts. With the show ending a day before Valentine’s Day, some florists skipped this year to maximize the industry’s big day. It also meant there were fewer flowers and plants available for sales, display gardens and floral sculptures. One of the more impressive floral achievements given the situation was the Northwest Orchid Society’s http://www.nwos.org/ display garden — designed, built and planted by volunteers with orchids loaned from home gardener members. This year’s design was a tropical vision — a large greenhouse from Hartley Botanic, bursting with orchids on every plane. Outside, orchids of indescribable variety were crammed into garden beds looking like a flower farm on Maui. The intricate floral creations from Fleur de Villes, https://www. fleursdevilles.com/, were back after their 2020 debut, but this year in the all-glass Skybridge. With a “Rosé” theme supporting breast cancer survivors, these life-sized mannequins wearing nothing but biomass wowed the crowds with flower power and artistry. One strutted in go-go boots, one defiantly dangled a bra. One display garden, by Farmer Frog, https://farmerfrog.org/, detailed the effects of the pandemic, from nurturing nature to a

your dad had any fender benders or tickets lately, or have you noticed any dents or scrapes on his vehicle? These, too, are red flags. If you need some help and your dad is willing, consider hiring a driver rehabilitation specialist who’s trained to evaluate elderly drivers and provide safety suggestions. This type of assessment typically costs between $200 and $400. To locate a professional in your area, visit AOTA.org/olderdriver or ADED.net. Transitioning and Talking After your assessment, if you think it’s still safe for your dad to drive, see if he would be willing to take an older driver refresher course. These courses will show him how aging affects driving skills and offer tips and adjustments to help keep him safe. Taking a class may also earn your dad a discount on his auto insurance. To locate a class, contact your local AAA (AAA.com) or AARP (AARPdriversafety.org, 888-2277669). Most courses cost around $20 to $30 and can be taken

online. If, however, your assessment shows that your dad really does need to stop driving, you need to have a talk with him, but don’t get carried away. If you begin with a dramatic outburst like “Dad, you’re going to kill someone!” you’re likely to trigger resistance. Start by simply expressing your concern for his safety. For more tips on how to talk to your dad about this and evaluate his driving skills, the Hartford Financial Services Group and MIT AgeLab offers a variety of resources to assist you. Visit TheHartford.com/lifetime and click on “Publications” on the menu bar, then on the “We Need to Talk” guidebook. Refuses to Quit If your dad refuses to quit, you have several options. One possible solution is to suggest a visit to his doctor who can give him a medical evaluation, and if warranted, “prescribe” that he stops driving. Older people will often listen to their doctor before they will listen to their own family. If he still refuses, contact your

local Department of Motor Vehicles to see if they can help. Or call in an attorney to discuss with your dad the potential financial and legal consequences of a crash or injury. If all else fails, you may just have to take away his keys. Alternative Transportation Once your dad stops driving, he’s going to need other ways to get around, so help him create a list of names and phone numbers of family, friends and local transportation services that he can call on. To find out what transportation services are available in your dad’s area contact Rides in Sight (RidesInSight.org, 855-6074337), and the Eldercare Locator (800-677-1116), which will direct you to his area agency on aging for assistance. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

“Despite attendance being down 30 percent, the pent-up demand for plants and garden accessories was evident over the five days of the festival. Many of the exhibitors had all-time sales and were out of product early in the weekend. We were thrilled with the results given the circumstance and look forward to 2023." — Jeff Swenson Northwest Flower & Garden Festival manager memorial made of masks visitors inscribed with loved ones’ names. The display garden by Redwood Builders, http://www.redwoodbuilderslandscaping.com/, in Maple Valley and designer Tony Fajarillo, https://bonsaiko.com/, swept three awards — the “Best in Show” Founders’ Cup, Best Use of Color and Best Use of Horticulture. Titled “Shinrin Yoku,” the Japanese term for forest bathing — nature walks for wellness — it incorporated a massive enkianthus tree, large cedars, a bridge crossing a river fed by waterfall and bonsai. On Facebook, Fajarillo thanked, among others, Kent East Hill Nursery for loans of plant material, Lake Washington Tech School Environmental Horticulture for helping hands, the Pacific Bonsai Museum and the festival staff who have “worked so hard to make this happen through COVID.” Overall, the lighter crowds

made for a relaxed experience without long lines to get into a display garden or grab coffee. Talks were well-attended but not at capacity. The show runners said they were pleased with the event’s performance under some challenging circumstances and are optimistic about next year. “The return of the Northwest Flower & Garden Festival after a one-year hiatus proved to all of us that the show still has a huge following and brings the joy of spring to life in February,” manager Jeff Swenson said. “Despite attendance being down 30 percent, the pent-up demand for plants and garden accessories was evident over the five days of the festival. Many of the exhibitors had all-time sales and were out of product early in the weekend. We are thrilled with the results given the circumstance and look forward to 2023.”

County ending vaccination verification policy March 1 With new COVID-19 cases and hospitalization decreasing, and over 87 percent of King County residents over age 12 fully vaccinated, King County Executive Dow Constantine announced last week that Public Health – Seattle & King County is lifting the local health order requiring proof of COVID-19 vaccination for entry into indoor recreational settings or outdoor events. The vaccination verification policy will no longer be in effect as of March 1. Businesses and organizations may continue to implement their own vaccination verification rules for their establishments. Additionally, King County and the City of Seattle announced their remote employees would begin returning to offices in March. “From the beginning of this pandemic, our aim has been to protect the health of our community and save lives,” Constantine said, according to the press releases. “Our public health experts believe that now is the appropriate time to lift vaccine verification, based on high rates of vaccine coverage and the decrease in new cases and hospitalizations across the county. We are moving in the right direction, and can continue taking additional steps toward recovery. King County

businesses and community members have been instrumental in encouraging nationleading vaccination verification rates, and I’m grateful for the extra effort to keep our community safe over these last several months.” According to the press release, Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell said in the press release that Seattle will continue to follow public health guidance and adopt strategies that best keep communities safe. “These steps forward show we are moving in the right direction and reflect that our region’s strong COVID response is the result of a united team effort,” he said. “With City employees who had previously been working from home beginning to return to office in mid-March, I look forward to keeping up this collaborative spirit as we drive forward an equitable, community-focused recovery.” King County’s vaccination verification policy went into effect on October 25, 2021. The policy required either verification of full vaccination or a recent negative test to enter indoor entertainment and recreational events or establishments, indoor restaurants and bars, and outdoor events with 500 people or more, according to the press release.

“We announced the vaccination verification policy in anticipation of a fall and winter surge in cases,” Dr. Jeff Duchin, Health Officer, Public Health — Seattle & King County. “The intent was to reduce COVID-19 transmission in high-risk indoor settings and thereby reduce the burden on our hospitals, while providing time for more people to get fully vaccinated. Following the record-breaking Omicron surge, we have seen a steady reduction in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, and hospital capacity is improving. In addition, since this policy was adopted, over one-quarter of a million King County residents have gotten vaccinated, meaning nearly 80 percent of King County residents are now fully vaccinated, and 92 percent of those eligible have started the vaccination series. “Although our mandatory vaccine verification requirement is ending, COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations remain elevated and layered COVID-19 prevention remains important,” he continued. “Everyone should continue to take steps to reduce COVID-19 risk, including getting vaccinated and boosted when eligible, using high quality, well-fitting face masks, improving indoor

air quality through ventilation and filtration, and limiting time in crowded and poorly ventilated indoor spaces. Businesses should continue to support employees in getting vaccinated and staying home when sick.” Seattle Metro Chamber of Commerce CEO and President Rachel Smith said the recent public health data is encouraging, according to the press release. “This is our moment to celebrate the tremendous work the county, businesses and customers did to make public health a priority — saving lives and keeping our economy moving,” she said. “Vaccine verification was a win-win: Our businesses got to keep their staff on payroll and keep their doors open, while prioritizing safety. Our top priority has been to support the King County business community as it navigated changes in regulations, and it can expect that same high level of support and resources from the Chamber to help ensure safety for our community moving forward.” The policy was announced in September 2021 as a temporary measure during the Delta variant surge and to prepare for a potential fall and winter surge. The intent of the policy was to give additional COVID-19 protection to employees and

patrons in high-risk indoor settings while providing more time for people to get fully vaccinated.

County and City of Seattle employees to begin returning to offices

Executive Constantine and Mayor Harrell also announced that restrictions on in-office work will be lifted, and remote employees will begin returning to the office in March. For King County employees, this means a gradual transition of the nearly 5,000 employees who have been mostly working remotely over the last two years, not a sudden end to telecommuting. Executive departments will begin to implement their Future of Work plans. Many public-facing customer service locations will still temporarily operate remotely, and more details on their reopening will be shared at a later date. For City of Seattle employees, this means that departments will begin to bring more than 5,000 employees back to the office based on business needs and work plans. The city will continue to evaluate working arrangements to ensure residents’ needs are met. In-person customer service counters will continue to remain open.

7 Steps to Take After Receiving College Financial Aid Award Letters (StatePoint) Perhaps even more nerve-wracking than waiting for your child’s college acceptance letters is learning whether they’ve been awarded financial aid. This is the piece of the puzzle that tells you how much it will really cost, and ultimately, whether a particular school is within your budget. “Decoding award letters and comparing their terms can be a challenge,” says Angela Colatriano, chief marketing officer of College Ave Student Loans. “Just be patient and take the time to understand each offer.” In a recent College Ave Student Loans parent survey conducted by Barnes & Noble College Insights, 42% of parents who received an aid offer letter found aspects of it confusing, and 68% agreed that terms and layout of these letters varied from school to school, making it hard to compare them. To make better sense of financial aid award letters, follow these steps: 1. Look for free money: The award letter will list whether your student is eligible for scholarships and grants (sometimes called Merit or Gift Aid). This is money you typically don’t need to pay back. Some merit aid is tied to how your child performed in high school. They worked hard for this recognition; congrats! 2. Look for Federal Work-

Study: Your child might be eligible for Federal Work-Study jobs. While jobs aren’t guaranteed, they can be a good opportunity to help cover educational expenses. 3. Spot the loans: Schools will list any federal loans your child is eligible to receive. Helpful hint: They may be grouped with scholarship and grants. You should also take note of whether a Federal loan is subsidized or unsubsidized. Subsidized loans are more desirable, as they don’t accrue interest while your student is still enrolled, or during deferment periods. 4. Calculate your net cost: To get an apples-to-apples look at the offers, determine the net direct cost of each particular school. This is calculated by subtracting offered scholarships and grants from the cost of attendance (the total cost of tuition, room, board, textbooks and fees). If applicable, you can subtract work-study aid too. It’s important to do this math, as the biggest scholarship doesn’t always amount to the lowest out-of-pocket cost. 5. Play the field: Some parents have found success in appealing the financial aid package offered, especially if their financial circumstances have changed. Contact your top schools of interest and share the awards your student has been offered. Some schools

You should also ask about additional scholarships or grants that might be available. 6. Consider other factors: Check if awards being offered are for all four years and understand what your child will need to do to continue being eligible for them, year-to-year. You should also factor in expected increases in tuition, room, board

and other fees. 7. Fill the gaps: If after doing the math, you find you have a financial gap to cover, you may also consider a private student loan or parent loan. Look for a lender with great rates, flexible repayment terms, and the opportunity to customize the loan to fit your family’s budget. For example, College Ave Student Loans offers tools and resources to help you along your financial

road to college, along with a pre-qualification tool that offers quick answers without affecting your credit score. To learn more, visit CollegeAve.com. While awaiting financial aid award letters and deciphering them can be confusing and stressful, the good news is that once these letters are in-hand, your family will have the tools needed to move ahead.
