Council OKs purchase of Rail Corridor BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com

T

he Kirkland City Council held a special meeting Monday to discuss many end-of-year issues, but the biggest decision could have an impact on the city for decades.

In a unanimous vote, council members authorized the purchase of the Eastside Rail Corridor from the Port of Seattle. The 5.5 mile segment of the rail line goes through the heart of three major Kirkland business districts and was formerly owned by Burlington North-

ern Santa Fe (BNSF). “This is a very, very big moment,” said Kirkland Mayor Joan McBride, following the vote. The council authorized the purchase, which was negotiated by the city and the Port of Seattle for $5 million. The corridor could

be redeveloped for multiple uses, including a bike and pedestrian trail. But the issue of how to ultimately pay for the project was of great concern during a study session prior to the vote. “Do you want a trail for [ more RAIL page 8 ]

A 19-year-old soldier from Joint Base Lewis-McChord is a person of interest in the murder of a Juanita woman. Scarlett Paxton, 19, was found stabbed to death Nov. 30. by her boyfriend at the Hidden Firs apartments behind the Juanita Albertson’s. Joe Kubistek, spokesman for Joint Base Lewis-McChord, said the soldier was booked into the Regional Correctional Facility on base on Nov. 30 for going absent without leave. “He had gone AWOL several times and he was considered a flight risk,” said Kubistek, adding that Kirkland police notified base personnel that the soldier was Scarlett Paxton a person of interest in the slaying the same day he was booked into custody. Authorities have not identified the soldier yet as he has not been charged, but Kubistek said he has been in the Army over a year and he once missed a mandatory unit movement.

Bill Vadino, the executive director of the Greater Kirkland Chamber of Commerce, announced Dec. 9 he will leave his position at the end of the year to become the “show director” for the Kirkland Concours d’Elegance in Tacoma. The annual Concours event that has drawn thousands of car enthusiasts to Carillon Point’s waterfront over the past nine years moved to Tacoma in Bill Vadino September. The all-volunteer Concours board agreed to legally transfer ownership to the non-profit LeMay– America’s Car Museum in Tacoma.

Second cyclist killed this year in Kirkland Redmond man charged with vehicular homicide BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com

A Redmond man was charged with vehicular homicide and reckless driving on Monday for striking and killing a Kirkland bicyclist. Nathan Jeremie Godwin, 26, struck Bradley Nakatani, 36, with his SUV while the Kirkland man was riding a bicycle in the early morning

of Dec. 8 at the intersection of 132nd Avenue Northeast and Northeast 124th Street in Kirkland near the Redmond city limits. Godwin was arrested on suspicion of DUI. He posted a $500,000 bail and was released from jail after his first court appearance on Friday. If convicted, Godwin

Godwin, a convicted felon, has an extensive driving record, including more than a dozen traffic violations for speeding, disobeying road signals, failure to stop at signals and reckless endangerment. “This is a very busy hub,” said Kirkland Police spokesman Lt. Mike Murray on Dec. 8. “The debris field was so big we couldn’t just shut

The closure backed up traffic for a mile on Northeast 124th Street as it is a main arterial through north Kirkland, with access to 405, the Totem Lake shopping area and Redmond. Metro buses also had to be rerouted. Police said the cyclist was heading home from work, traveling west on Northeast 124th Street and turned left to go south on Slater Ave. when the SUV, traveling east, struck the man. There was one passenger in the SUV, who advised Godwin to go back to the scene after they had traveled about a block, according to

police documents. Kirkland police responded at 2:50 a.m. to the fatal traffic collision. The man on the bike was wearing reflective clothing, lights and a helmet. “He had quite a bit of reflective gear,� said Murray. “He had a light on his helmet and bike and a very large backpack.� Nakatani’s sister and father showed up at the scene a few hours after the accident. “They are meeting with our chaplain,� said Murray on Dec. 8. Godwin told police that Nakatani appeared to be veering into his lane and that he swerved in an attempt to avoid the collision. He initially stated that

he had not consumed any alcoholic beverages, but later told police that he had consumed an alcoholic-type beverage he called “Jeremiah Weed Iced Tea,� as well as two glasses of champagne, other alcoholic beverages and smoked a marijuana “blunt.� He also admitted that when he woke up at 9 p.m. on Dec. 7 he took Lexapro and Suboxone, which he uses to treat his opiate addiction. Police said that Godwin agreed to a voluntary fieldsobriety test, of which he did not perform well and was unable to complete certain parts. The suspect also produced a blood-alcohol sample of

.078 at 3:34 a.m., at least 45 minutes after the accident. The legal limit in Washington State is .08. Godwin’s arraignment is set for Dec. 22 at the King County Courthouse. About 100 friends and family gathered at the intersection to pay respects to Na-

katani on Friday afternoon. He was a software engineer at Redmond’s Alston Grid and was heading home from work when he was killed. Nakatani was a 1994 Newport High School graduate, who earned a Master’s degree from Stanford.

This is the second time this year that a bicyclist has been hit and killed in Kirkland. John Przychodzen, 49, was riding northbound along the shoulder of Juanita Drive Northeast near 86th Avenue Northeast when he was struck and killed by a truck on July 22.

QFC Meat Donations Help the Hungry Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome, nutritious protein in food pantry visitors’ diets. But for many food pantry visitors, meat is something that rarely is put on the table. Food pantries that serve the hungry often don’t have the resources to provide meat to the people they serve. However, for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or freshness. Last year, QFC donated 560,000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon. This is part of QFC’s Grocery Rescue program. “Healthy food is important for everyone, but particularly so for low-income people suffering from illnesses, as well as children and seniors. QFC meat donations enable people to maintain healthier lifestyles and give people the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their families,� says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson.

QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package. This can include beef, poultry, pork, and seafood, as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs. When meat products no longer meet QFC’s standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated, it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and storage procedures. There are very real cross contamination risks when handling meat. For that reason, we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup. We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline; the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer. All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store. Practices we follow before donating meat products include: freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the

meat by species. A Food Lifeline agency that participates in the Grocery Rescue program says, “Thanks for the food you give to those in need. We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can help.� By donating product that doesn’t meet our selling standards, QFC helped our neighbors and friends in

Western Washington and Oregon feed their families. This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs. Do you have questions about donations?

Eastside Rail Corridor purchase the right decision for Kirkland

K

Yes: 21% No: 78%

irkland will soon own nearly 5.5 miles of the Eastside Rail Corridor that city officials hope to turn into a biking and hiking trail with views of Lake Washington. In the more distant future, the corridor could also be used for bus or light rail. The Kirkland City Council made the right decision when it unanimously approved the $5 million purchase of the abandoned rail line from the Port of Seattle on Monday. The vote means city officials – and the residents they represent – will now have the say-so about what to do with Kirkland’s segment of rail line. And this has many implications for our city’s economic vitality and future. Kirkland has the potential to connect with the region. The 42-mile Eastside Rail Corridor represents a trail backbone that connects Renton, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Woodinville and Snohomish. Former King County Executive Ron Sims heralded the rail line as “the granddaddy of all regional trails.” Once Kirkland’s segment is turned into a biking and hiking trail, it will connect with other regional trails, including the Burke-Gilman, East Lake Sammamish, Interurban and Snoqualmie Valley trails. Kirkland’s segment of rail line also goes through the heart of three major Kirkland business districts. Whether by trail or transit, the segment would connect the region with those districts – including Kirkland’s “economic

engine” – Totem Lake. Beyond regional connectivity, the purchase also improves local access. The trail would connect bicycle commuters with the South Kirkland Park and Ride and the Google campus. For a city that touts pedestrian-friendly with yellow flags at many crosswalks, the trail would also improve the city’s pedestrian landscape. And in a community as active as Kirkland, a new dedicated biking/hiking trail would provide more safety for many bicyclists and pedestrians. The need for safer bike facilities is no more evident than with the two cases we’ve reported on this year involving bicyclists who were killed by vehicles – including this week’s cover story.

Of course, there are many financial struggles that the city will have to work through to fund the project. This will not be easy. And city officials and residents will have to determine the best way to use the rail line, whether that’s both a hiking and biking trail and rail. Whatever the outcome, Monday’s decision gives us the power to have our say and control the rail line’s destiny.

Thank you, Kirkland strangers

U.S. Post Office is an odd duck

Last weekend I was in town with my son and my sister to help my son get ready for the next semester at Cascadia/UW. While I was getting coffee at the Starbucks on 124th and 113th very early Sunday morning, I managed to spill a venti soy latte all over myself. As I sadly watched it steam in the parking lot, three people standing nearby rushed over to help. One gentleman got me a rag, another asked a Starbuck’s employee for a replacement and all three asked how they could help. Although I felt pretty klutzy, I was really warmed by the kindness of strangers and the Starbuck’s baristas. After everything was put back in order, one of the Kind 3 said, “I hope the rest of your day is better.” Honestly, spilling that coffee turned out to be a good thing as I got a chance to see the kindness of strangers and the goodness of the people of Kirkland. Thank you Kirkland strangers. I too will pay it forward.

I rent a PO box in the local U.S. Post Office. I was picking up my mail the other day and the thought struck me that the U.S. Postal Service is indeed an odd duck. It should be the darling of the Constitutional Party because it appears in the original Constitution of 1789 and hasn’t been amended out. It should be okay to those who are fiscally cautious such as yours truly because it charges user fees as part of its ongoing operations. Big government is always the better choice, folks should embrace it. Some complain that it loses money, but there’s no branch of any level of government that was supposed to make money. Businesses are. The Green Party must hate it because trees must be pulped to make junk mail. The junk mailers love it because how else would they make a living? The USPS must love itself because it makes its only bundle off junk mail. Plus, people just like the “old-timeyness” and togetherness of standing in a long slow line to buy a

tiny piece of paper to stick on another thing made of paper that they then hand in person to a real live human being to throw in a bin. There is just something comforting about that in this impersonal age of no customer service. Golly, there’s just something comforting about the entire affair as long as you don’t think about it too much. They do fly Old Glory out in front of the place. God forbid that someone should come up with a more sustainable way to communicate via paper. Thomas Edison, by all accounts a genius, did envision that the telephone would be included in a business model where customers would install a phone, make a call to an operator who would put the message to paper and have that sent via messenger to be hand delivered to the recipient to read and then dispose of. Maybe a bit too quaint by half for us in this advanced age of email. Which leads to the question of what to do with the snail mail bureaucrats. If Uncle Sam sold the physical plant, he could net a nice capital gain because he doesn’t owe any taxes to

himself on sale of real property. That would be a nice one-time cash boost to the Treasury now wouldn’t it? Then he could stop funding the blame fool thing and just ignore the fact that it’s in the Constitution because nobody in power notices when the Constitution of 1789 is “interpreted” to fit modern 21st century situational ethics anyway. Right? Then we could have a mail delivery system for those who still need its services that’s solvent and self-sustainable. One that is off the federal budget and not being funded by increasing the debt of the U.S., which gets sold to foreign sovereign funds to milk us bowlegged over the next decade or more of interest-only payments before Uncle Sam gets our principal back for us, which has been heavily eroded by his own inflation in the meantime. How about that – make a capital gain to pay down the national debt and eliminate the ongoing yearly operational cost by taking the whole thing off of the national budget. Who woulda thunk it?

My frayed relationship with Sunday is my own undoing, however, as Sunday is stocked full of a weekend’s accumulation of homework that I have decided to put off.

...healthy living Simple diet ‘trick’ to burn more body fat BY ROMMEL ACDA Element 5 Fitness

NO MORE DENTAL DAMS!

Are you aware that your diet regimen might be conditioning your body to hold on to more fat? Got your attention? Great, allow me to briefly explain a wonderful, but confusing fat loss hormone called Leptin. And then I’ll share with you a fun little “trick� that our clients have implemented with huge success. On a typical diet there’s a restriction of calories. Doing so causes leptin levels to plummet, triggering starvation mode. Leptin sends a signal to your brain to eat, but to eat voraciously to store more fat, because it thinks your body may need it. The vicious cycle of restricting calories will basically turn you into a fat-storing zombie, and leave you scratching your head, wondering what the hell happened to your body. Okay, so here’s the fun trick to turn you back into a fatburning machine (if you’ve been on a typical diet). Have a cheat meal, once a week. Whatever you’ve been

craving the whole week, have it. You can have ANYTHING you want for this meal. However, I suggest you don’t binge eat and make yourself sick. It’s important to be strategic about this cheat meal and STOP when you’re full. Strategically planning a cheat meal will spike your leptin levels naturally. Doing so will allow leptin to send the correct signal to your brain that “everything is okay� and tells your body to start releasing and burning fat FREELY. In addition, you’ll also want to make sure that you have plenty of carbs since research suggests that leptin levels and carb intake are

closely linked to opening up your fat burning pathways. That’s all there is to it, provided you do it correctly. This trick may just be the golden fat-burning ticket your body has been looking for. So if you’re serious about taking control of your health and fitness, then make sure you take advantage of your FREE fitness consultation where you’ll receive information on how to get fit and trim that’s tailored to your body.

...healthy living Subsidized school lunches save children from hunger Agriculture show an increase of students qualifying for free or low-cost school lunches to 21 million (up from 18 million in 2007), a 17 percent rise. In some states, it is closer to 25 percent. The USDA, which administers the national school lunch program, reported that not since 1972 have so many children become eligible in such a short time. Since its inception in 1946, Timi Gustafson

HEALTHY LIVING

The number of school children receiving free or subsidized meals is skyrocketing. Many come from families that until recently counted themselves as solidly middle class. As the economy continues to sputter, the youngest members of society often suffer the greatest hardships. The latest data released by the U.S. Department of

the school lunch program has steadily expanded and has now a $10.8 billion annual budget, providing 32 million meals every day, 21 million of which are free or subsidized. Children from families of four with annual incomes of under $30K qualify for free meals, while subsidies are available to those from households with less than $42K. Because of the increasing need, some school districts have added free breakfast – and even supper programs to

prevent children from going hungry. But in most places funds are too limited to meet the demand. These statistics reflect nothing less than a rapidly growing national crisis. What happens when children are

not in school during vacation times with no access to regular meals? What happens to children who are continuously malnourished, missing out on key nutrients essential for their healthy growth? Young children are most

vulnerable to the effects of malnutrition. During growth spurts they need large amounts of calories, protein, fat and vitamins.

Initial purchase of the Kirkland Segment would be conducted through an inter-fund loan and would not require the expenditures of the city’s general fund.

The branch of the line that connects with the Kirkland corridor runs south from Renton up into Snohomish County at the north end. But there are some outstanding issues with the rail corridor. One of the potential issues is that an easement is to be reviewed that was brokered with Puget Sound Energy (PSE) by King County. The utility easement allows PSE to utilize the corridor for gas and electrical transmission and distribution. There are some

concerns about the scope of PSE’s rights under the utility easement. King County is currently negotiating with PSE with respect to clarifying some of the easement language and eliminating potential uncertainty with respect to the scope of the utility easement. As the city moves forward with acquiring the Kirkland Segment, it will work with the county and PSE on making appropriate clarifications to the utility-easement language. Another issue is that the corridor is “railbanked.” The purpose of “railbanking” is to preserve rail transportation corridors for future reactivation of rail service and to allow interim public uses such as transportation and recreational trails. One critical issue with respect to “railbanked” property is that it is subject to reactivation for freight rail use. This means that if the STB receives a viable request from a freight-rail operator, the corridor could be reactivated for freight use. The key issue becomes the definition of a “viable” request. In this case, however, King County holds the right to reactivate the corridor. In any event, the city and other entities acquiring property interests in the corridor would seek compensation for the impacts to their property rights in the event a reactivation request is received.

[ HOME from page 9] planted an idea in Fox’s mind. She spoke with her husband, Greg, about undertaking the repairs at the Snyder’s home. Greg works for Holmberg Company, a commercial mechanical company in Kirkland, and he mentioned the idea to his boss. “Holmberg does one community service project each year, and this one fell in their lap,� Pam explained. Within two months, the idea had grown into a full renovation, complete with donated equipment and matching blue t-shirts for Holmberg employees. “They descended on the house like ants,� Joanne said. “In one day, they stripped, sealed, repaired, and installed a new roof, rebuilt the front fence, and landscaped the

They never asked for a thing except to use the restroom.� The Fox’s and the Holmberg team ensured that the Snyder’s didn’t lay a finger to work during the five-hour overhaul. “She (Joanne) said, ‘Can I help?’ and I said no!

activated more than 120,000 new accounts since February, WSDOT Toll Division Director Craig Stone expects there will be a flood of requests into customer service as many drivers have yet to set up their accounts. “We know from our Tacoma Narrows Bridge experience that we can expect long lines and wait times as customers rush to set up their Good To Go! accounts,� said Stone. “We’re taking steps to prepare for this surge to get as many people on board as soon as possible. Even so, we’re asking people to be patient.� To prepare for the anticipated high volumes of customers registering and activating accounts this month, WSDOT has extended call center hours and hired extra customer service staff. Customers can purchase the popular sticker passes at Costco, Safeway, Fred Meyer and QFC and activate them online. WSDOT offers five different types of transponders, which vary in price and usage. Passes will not work unless they are registered on an active account. Drivers should also check their accounts for up-to-date credit card and license plate information.

The Kirkland Lightning FC team won the Washington State Rec. Cup championships last weekend, beating Silver Lake Gunners 2-1. The team beat District 3 champions Puyallup Thunder in the quarterfinals with a 1-0 final score. In the semifinals the team beat the Kirkland Huskies in a 2-1 game.

The Washington State Department of Transportation announced Wednesday that the long-awaited tolling of the State Route 520 bridge will begin at 5 a.m. Dec. 29. WSDOT is urging travelers to get ready by setting up a Good To Go! transponder account. “Tolling is helping Washington move forward with critical transportation investments and will finance ongoing and future work to replace the GET vulnerable SR 520 floating bridge and corridor,� said Washington Transportation Secretary Paula Hammond. “SR 520 toll revenue will provide $1 billion to fund pontoon construction in Grays Harbor, and floating bridge construction and improvements on the Eastside, which already are underway. Starting tolling before the new bridge is built is keeping financing costs down.� Toll costs will vary by time of day, with peak hours between 7-9 a.m. and 3-6 p.m. having the highest rate at $3.50 for anyone with a Good to Go transponder. Those without transponders will receive bills in the mail for the toll amount, plus a $1.50 charge. The toll system’s components have been tested and retested since summer to ensure they can collect data at highway speeds and create transactions for the more than 100,000 vehicles that cross the bridge daily. WSDOT spokeswoman Patty Michaud said the system has been tested not only for the ability to read plates, but also to do some in Washington’s often adverse weather conditions. WSDOT also brought in national tolling experts to review the system, and expanded its customer service support. However, even though the Good To Go! call center has
