Kirkland Police see high volume of fireworks complaints With the fireworks ban in effect in Kirkland’s new annexed neighborhoods, Kirkland Police saw a surge in complaints citywide with 157 calls

BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com

Editor’s note: The recent annexation of the Finn Hill, Kingsgate and North Juanita neighborhoods into the City of Kirkland has many complicated components. One of the most visible elements of annexation for the new residents is the presence of Kirkland police officers. This is part one of a four-part series on policing in the new neighborhoods.

One of the first big enforcement events in the new neighborhoods for the Kirkland Police Department was the Fourth of July.

“The Fourth of July is a blackout date and no one can get it off,” said KPD Chief Eric Olsen, about his staffing for Independence Day. “This was the first year for that area, so we tried to concentrate on education.”

KPD Capt. Bill Hamilton said the department received a high volume of fireworks complaints throughout the city this year, compared to last.

There was a total of 157 calls of fireworks com-

509383

plaints citywide, with 43 percent, or 68 calls, coming from residents in the new neighborhoods. The calls in those areas were equally divided, he noted.

Last year, there was only a total of 28 fireworks calls in the city. That number was up by 31 percent this year, with 89 calls in the pre-annexation Kirkland.

Hamilton said he is not certain why the KPD had such a low incidence of calls from the community last year, but thinks it may have something to do with the fact that the city has had a fireworks ban in place for many years, and that last year’s weather was cloudy and rainy.

The spike in fireworks complaints citywide can also be attributed to increased awareness, he said.

This year, “we purposefully increased our visibility and focused on educating our community on the fireworks laws, particularly in the neighborhoods where fireworks were previously allowed for many years,” [ more FIREWORKS page 7 ]

Two runoffs set for primary election

BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com

The Aug. 16 primary will be busier than first thought for Kirkland voters.

For the first time in at least a decade there will be two run-off elections, as the race for Kirkland Council Position No. 2 will join Position No. 6. The addition of the second run-off is due

to former council candidate Chuck Hinson being unable to withdrawal before the deadline.

“At the time of my decision to withdraw I was on vacation,” said Hinson, who will be on the ballot against incumbent Bob Sternoff and Kingsgate resident Jason Gardiner. “I made email and voice contact with King

County Elections on June 1416. I was informed on June 16 that my request to withdraw was not recognized, as I had not completed, or certified, the necessary King County Elections form for this purpose.”

King County Elections spokesperson Kim Van Ekstrom said the Elections Commission needs that

deadline date to stay firm.

“Once that deadline hits it defines the primary,” said Ekstrom. “We need to have time to layout the ballot and create the voters’ pamphlet.

We have to get those pamphlets out to our military personnel and people overseas. We have to make sure we meet all of our legal [ more ELECTION page 7 ]

Marshbank Construction and its subcontractors have completed significant Juanita Beach Park restoration activities since the City of Kirkland hired the contractor on June 13 to complete the project.

Marshbankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s schedule currently shows the southern, beach-side section of the park

to be open by Friday, Aug. 5.

Recent work activities include soil preparation ahead of upcoming planting work, the re-grading of public common areas, significant beach weeding and numerous parking lot improvements. Work activities over the next three weeks will include final efforts on the irrigation system, the installation of seed and sod areas, construction of new boardwalk and bridges, the installation of permanent

fencing, and the planting of many hundreds of plant, shrubs and trees. Restoration work for the Juanita Creek Enhancement Area, located on the southwestern side of the Park, also began last week.

Come Aug. 5, visitors will park in a more space-efficient parking lot complimented by new lighting, enjoy new walking paths to the beach and the pier, swim, and have a picnic on new picnic tables.

LWSD cuts costs with energy program With budget cuts trickling down from the state year after year, the Lake Washington School District (LWSD) has been participating in an energy program that has saved them millions of dollars.

Five years ago, the district began a Resource Conservation Manager (RCM) program that focuses on energy conservation and efficiency.

Since then, savings have totaled to $4.57 million with a predicted $1.52 million in savings for this fiscal year, which began Sept. 1, 2010 and will end Aug. 31. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve turned a $7 million utility budget into a $5.5 million budget,â&#x20AC;? said Chuck Collins, the chief executive officer of Cascade Power Group (CPG), the company LWSD hired as an energy consultant. CPG works mostly with school districts and public agencies such as city governments.

Upon beginning the RCM program, LWSD director of support services Forrest Miller had his doubts about how much they would save.

He said LWSD had tried an RCM program about 10 years earlier, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very successful because the situation

and circumstances were not right at the time. As a result, Miller wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too sure about how well the current program would work when the district began it five years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was skeptical,â&#x20AC;? Miller admitted. He said the first program focused on behaviors â&#x20AC;&#x201D; such as turning off lights when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not in use and not letting water run when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not necessary â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which was not enough for them to see significant savings.

With the current RCM program, Collins has educated LWSD staff and students and helped them understand that resource conservation is more than turning off lights.

ABCs of RCM Behaviors is just one prong of CPGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three-pronged approach to reducing energy consumption. Collins calls it the ABCs of RCM: accounting, behavioral and capital or construction projects.

In accounting, Collins looks at an organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bills for errors as well as visits schools to find opportunities to reduce the frequency of certain utility services. For example, if trash services come once a week but the bins are only halfway full, the organization would cut down

trash services to once every two weeks. Collins said right there, one expense has been reduced by about half.

Miller added that in looking at water bills, a few situations have come up in which there was a spike in the water rates. He said the district has occasionally found water pipe leaks and were able to fix the leak or figure out that it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t on district property and received money back from the water utility.

The behavioral aspect of CPGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approach is about getting people to do different things, Collins said.

A lot of this includes turning of lights when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not needed, closing doors to keep warm or cool air in a room and setting computers to an energy-saving mode when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not in use. Miller said the latter saved the district $250,000 the first year of the RCM program.

Student involvement Behaviors is also the portion of the program in which students get involved as many schools throughout the district have formed green or environmental teams and clubs. Schools have begun recycling and composting programs with students

overseeing the sorting. Miller said students have been very helpful in monitoring adult behavior as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(The students) enjoy a great deal to help out,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Collins added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s critical (they get involved) because they are going to be our leaders of tomorrow.â&#x20AC;?

Jed Reynolds, a resource conservation manager with CPG, has done a lot of work with the students throughout the district. He said getting them involved in the program is a key part of the job. Reynolds added that incorporating the educational component is a lot of work but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;absolutely worth it.â&#x20AC;?

Reynolds was hired by LWSD in 2008 after the district had saved enough money to bring on a second CPG employee. And even with Reynolds added to the payroll â&#x20AC;&#x201D; bringing CPGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original contract with LWSD from $80,000 to $180,000 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that cost is offset by how much the district saves.

Reynolds came to LWSD with a background in water and since then has been able to look into the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water usage and figure out ways to reduce consumption and save even more money.

Chuck Collins has worked with the LWSD for five years on resource conservation. One of the methods for saving energy is solar power.

The solar panels behind Collins are in the courtyard at Redmond High School. SAMANTHA PAK, Reporter Newspapers The third prong of the program is capital or construction projects. This means upgrading or retrofitting equipment such as heating

units and light bulbs so they are more energy efficient.

recent development in New York regarding unions may once again put a tough decision on the backs of union members here. If so, we hope they serve the public by keeping the buses running – and their members on the job.

New York’s second largest union of public workers has agreed to cut their wages and benefits to prevent layoffs of their members. If members agree to the deal, there will be no across-the-board raises for three years, members will have to take furlough days and pay more for their insurance coverage.

New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo had threatened to lay off hundreds of workers, members of the Public Employees Federation in order to save the state $75 million this fiscal year and nearly $400 million over the course of their contract, the governor’s office said.

Unions here have faced similar decisions as local governments and the state itself have scrambled to balance budgets in a down economy. These local agreements, as tough as they were for union members to accept, saved union members’ jobs when the state was in no position to continue “business as usual.”

One union, the Amalgamated Transit Union, which represents King County Metro bus drivers, may face one of these tough decisions again. King County Executive Dow Constantine wants a temporary $20 car-tab fee to help fill

a $60 million budget hole and avoid a 17 percent reduction in service, which means a cut in union members’ jobs.

The County Council could pass the car-tab fee, but it would take a supermajority vote (five of the nine members) and that is considered unlikely. The issue could be put to a vote of the people, but passage also is “iffy” and the election itself would cost the county $1 million to conduct.

In a previous move, Metro Transit drivers gave up their 2011 cost-of-living increase to help balance the county

budget. But unlike workers in New York, they still are in line for a wage boost this November and next. In addition, they would get a pair of raises during 2012.

Union members once again may be asked to come up with the solution. If so, we hope that they would put the public first and forgo more money in order to keep their members on the job – and the buses running.

Yes, not getting any raise for an extended period is tough to accept. The only thing worse is not having any job at all.

Support your local farmers by supporting market It is important to note that the Kirkland Wednesday Market is a Kirkland Downtown Association sponsored event. The intent was to have a weekly community event that would bring people downtown, not only to have fresh fruits and vegetables, but to bring shoppers to local businesses. The original location was close to the Transit Center to enable bus riders to shop at the market. Construction of the transit center forced the market to find a temporary new home. Marina Park is too far from transit, the weather is bad and the vendors did not do as well in the new location. The decision to move to Park Lane put the market as close to the original location as possible.

One of the tenets of the market is to have no competing vendors with downtown business. In consideration, Veraci Pizza was not able to return. There are two pizza places in close proximity to the KWM, Zeeks and Amici. The market was intended to support local business, not compete. Christina Martin, the new market manager has worked hard to support local business while working in pretty

tight constraints on Park Lane.

Christina has been involved in the KWM since its inception; she is the owner of Blue Cottage jams and sat on the market board for many years. She brings a wealth of experience to the market. While no locat ion is perfect and not everyone understands the issues and reasons behind the change, the bottom line is: support your local farmers by supporting your local market.

Youth Lacrosse at Big Finn Hill Park is welcome I am constantly amazed at people who buy homes next to parks and then complain when people actually use the parks.

Nixon right person for Kirkland Council Toby Nixon is the right person

for Kirkland City Council after all.

While I’ve supported him over the years as a principled, lookbefore-you-leap, diplomatic, and knowledgeable legislator and homeowner association president, I had reservations about his advocacy of the Kingsgate, Finn Hill and Juanita annexation: I wasn’t sure Kirkland was much improvement over King County, compared to annexation into, perhaps, Woodinville.

But Toby knew the situation better than I thought. We’ve never discussed my position on the annexation, but in his kick-off speech his central emphasis was on solving my very concerns: overregulation of small and startup businesses (I was seriously considering incorporating mine in Federal Way) and land use, and making sure the annexed areas are heard equally in city decision making.

I won’t claim Toby was prophetic or prescient to start the annexation effort before this current recession, but he certainly combines the ability to plan ahead and correctly diagnose problems, and the proven track record of solving them effectively and efficiently. All of Kirkland – both the annexation area and the original city – will be better off for Toby Nixon’s leadership. I have enough

confidence to launch my business in Kirkland now.

K-Y Su, Kirkland

Need explanation why Wednesday Market was moved I believe my letter several weeks ago began the discussion of the Kirkland Wednesday Market issue. I am pleased that some people agree with me.

However, the July 15 letter by Bonnie Fletcher may have tried to change the issue. Essentially, Ms. Fletcher stated that the weather conditions affecting the growing season for produce, and the wind and rain last season at Marina Park, caused the transfer of the market to Park Lane.

I find it specious that the decision to move to Park Lane was based on weather last year, which was normal if not nice, by anticipating that it would be worse this year. Probably most dissatisfied patrons would like an explanation by the Kirkland City administration of the actual reason for the move given that the weather is not a logical answer. A final observation: I wonder why the “Kirkland Uncorked” event was not also moved for weather reasons?

This show could not be put on without Legends Car Club. The Legends Car Club is a Pacific Northwest Car Club that promotes the hobby of collector cars and motorcycles.

The club has no restrictions as to what kind or type of motor vehicle, it is for enthusiasts and collectors.

COMMENTARY

P

ut on your dancing shoes, and clean up that classic

Foundation that Kirkland is going to build a great new dog park. This grant is a significant step towards our doing that.â&#x20AC;?

She added KDOG volunteers are working hard to secure the remainder of the construction funds needed to begin construction of the site.

KDOG needs to secure donations or sponsorships for the expense of the fencing, entry way pavers, signage and contributions towards the ongoing park maintenance. Sponsorships of specific areas in the park such as the small dog area and the entry area are also still available. For further sponsorship details, visit www.kdog.org.

Approval of the site was secured in November 2010, but due to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s financial situation, the park must be built through donations and gifts in kind. KDOG had been instrumental in lobbying for the park and is leading the effort to get the funds and work in place to open the first off leash park.

The club runs three shows a year, Tastin N Racin, Kirkland Classic Car Show, and the Snoqualmie Railroad Days with most of the proceeds going to local charities.

There are many such as the Forgotten Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Foundation. Over the past few years they have donated over $40,000 to their charities.

Legends was named Washington State Car Club of the year in 2009 voted by the Washington State Hot Rod Hall of Fame.

We hope to see all of you downtown the July 30-31. Please keep in mind that Marina Park and Kirkland Avenue from Marina Park to Lake Street will be closed to parking

Saturday afternoon from 12-10:30 p.m.

On Sunday, Marina Park plus Lake Street from Central to Second Street, Kirkland Avenue to Main Street, Park Lane and the Lake and Central parking lot will be closed to parking from 5 a.m. until 5 p.m.

For those of you who were at the Fourth of July Parade, you saw a sample of some of the cars that will be in the show as Legends Car Club vehicles carried the Veterans in the parade. Just a reminder that both days are free for spectators. See you there!

Council votes to support levy renewal The Kirkland City Council unanimously approved a resolution supporting Proposition 1, the renewal of the King County Veterans and Human Services Levy during its meeting on Tuesday.

During the meeting, council members praised the effectiveness of the levy, and heard testimony from several Kirkland

residents and staff from local human services organizations.

Since 2005, Veterans and Human Services Levy has improved the lives of more than 82,000 veterans, their families, and others across King County. The levy supports essential services like employment training, veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, housing with support services, and services for new mothers and infants.

www.kirklandreporter.com [ FIREWORKS from page 1] said Hamilton.

Fireworks are banned in Kirkland City limits and legal in unincorporated King County. The King County Council passed an ordinance last year to ban fireworks in the Kirkland annexation area for 2011, to make the laws within the city limits the same. The ordinance was needed as a fireworks ban normally needs one year before it can go into effect for the area.

As in most areas where fireworks are banned, not all residents obeyed the laws.

“Kirkland needs to take its own fireworks ban seriously,” said Kirkland resident Matt Saavedra in a recent letter to the Reporter. “I live in the Finn Hill annexation area, or what should be known as ‘the war zone’ during the Fourth of July. My neighborhood is notorious for having many dangerous and illegal fireworks including M-80s, bottle rockets, and other loud and exploding type aerial fireworks.”

But tracking down offenders can be difficult. “Often times you have to figure out where it is coming from and that can result in a time delay,” said Hamilton. “ ... They are gone by the time we get there.”

One of the issues with policing fireworks is they are often a lower priority for officers if a more pressing situation arises, such as a domestic violence call or burglary. This year’s Fourth of July was relatively warm outside, which usually means that there are more alcohol-related incidents that can take precedence, Hamilton noted.

“I think we did as effective of a job as we could, but there is always room for improvement,” said Olsen. “But we have to prioritize the calls.”

The majority of the people who Kirkland police actually contacted for illegal action were families that were unaware of the new laws.

Most of those families were using what were legal “Safe and Sane” fireworks. The KPD was more concerned about getting the word out than penalizing people, Olsen said.

“This was year one,” said Olsen. “And it was a relatively safe Fourth of July. There were no major injuries and no fires in Kirkland.”

But those warnings will change to a higher number of citations and confiscations next year in the new neighborhoods.

“Next year we will increase our enforcement efforts through citations and confiscations,” said Hamilton, noting community awareness of the fireworks ban will have increased by that time. “Some people voted for annexation specifically for the fireworks ban. We are trying to change the behavior of everyone. It takes time.”

The new neighborhoods are also bordered primarily by cities with fireworks bans. Kenmore made a big push this year with a lot of signage to let citizens know it was not allowed.

But signage is not the police department’s duty. That falls to the city.

“If signs are needed they could budget it in,” said Olsen. “But we are using all different types of media to educate people.”

The availability of fireworks in the area was also diminished this year. The closest place for residents to buy fireworks was a small section of unincorporated land just north of the North Juanita neighborhood.

Still, many residents who were caught with fireworks claimed they didn’t know they were banned.

“My sense was that people were aware,” said Hamilton. “But again, the idea is to change the behavior and we gave people the benefit of the doubt. And people were cooperative.”

Olsen and Hamilton, and many residents, hope the education efforts this year will pay dividends in the future.

Saavedra also hopes the KPD “beefs up patrols and citations considerably next year and starts to actually enforce the ban they have in place because our neighborhood children, pets, and elderly deserve a true ban.”

Part 2 of this four-part police series will resume Aug. 5 and will address the new public safety building in the works for Totem Lake.

In 2003, current Councilwoman Jessica Greenway ran against Jeff Clark and Travis Bond for Position No. 4 during a run-off election that saw nearly 6,000 votes cast. During both run-off elections the top vote getter had just over 3,000, with second placing taking between 2,300-2,460 votes.

The three candidates for Position No. 6 will all be actively campaigning this year, including incumbent Councilman Dave Asher and challengers Martin Morgan and Jim Hart. Asher has raised $11,739 so far, according to PDC forms.

Neither Hart nor Morgan have filed any paperwork with the PDC. The general election race between incumbent Jessica Greenway and Kingsgate resident and former State Rep. Toby Nixon for Position No. 4 is heating up. The two candidates have raised a total of $30,000 already.

2nd Annual

Kirkland Health Fair

Lunatic farmer empowers individuals, cities in healthy food movement Virginia farmer Joel Salatin will be the featured speaker during the 2nd Annual Kirkland Health Fair on July 23

BY CARRIE WOOD cwood@kirklandreporter.com

You probably won’t find Joel Salatin’s unconventional wisdom on the steps of the White House.

It’s most likely in your kitchen tucked between your everyday household gadgets.

In the societal trend toward a healthier eating consciousness, Salatin says it’s better to transcend the fads with sustainable grassroots food activism at the individual level.

“And that, may I say, is exactly why I’m all about really empowering localities and households rather than marching on Washington, D.C.,” said Salatin, a selfdescribed lunatic farmer, during a media conference call from his family farm in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley. “I’d love to have a president who gets it as much as anybody. But ultimately, that can change with the whims of anything, just like when Reagan ripped off the solar panels that Jimmy Carter put on

the White House. That is why this has to be from the bottom up, where individuals build a relationship with their farmer.”

The famous farmer and real food advocate will be the featured speaker during the annual Kirkland Health Fair on July 23 at Parkplace.

He will be at the event signing books, followed by a public lecture at 5:30 p.m. at the Kirkland Performance Center, “The Sheer Ecstasy of Being a Lunatic Farmer.”

Salatin’s farm, Polyface Inc. (“The Farm of Many Faces”) represents America’s premier non-industrial food production oasis and even achieved iconic status as the grass farm featured in the New York Times

entire processed food system,” he said.

Instead of going to Disneyland, “take that money and buy local, buy cool kitchen gadgets, whether it’s a food dehydrator or a Cuisinart or a slow cooker,” he said, noting he has many customers who buy his “pork fat for pennies” and make good lard in their slow cookers while they’re at work.

Process food yourself, get your kids involved and turn your home back into the center of society, says Salatin.

“If we would lead by example and be a shining light in our own neighborhoods - a beacon of autonomy and independence and opt out of

this industrial food system in our own households - it will permeate across the cul-de-sac across the street, down the road and it will be a power that is beyond what you can imagine,” he added.

But local government also plays an important role in creating a healthy food system. Salatin offered five things localities should do to work towards that end: 1. A locality should make sure that all of its institutional purchases on any publiclyfunded meals, including school meals, are local food.

When a city council, for example, caters a meeting, make sure the food is from a local source.

He noted one locality he

ran into that ran a campaign where officials bought steer from a local grass fed producer. They sold the top end of the animal to people in the community, which financed the ground beef used for the school’s food lunch program. “(They) were able to selffinance simply by switching money from one place to patronize a local source to finance ground beef that’s $1 a pound more than what they were getting from the institutional sources,” he said.

“If every locality would really go out of its way to say we’re going to buy local, it would just be huge.”

2. Create local food ordinances.

He notes three towns in

Maine that recently adopted the Local Food and Self Governance Ordinance, which allows municipalities to determine food and farming policies locally.

These sorts of ordinances put localities in charge of its own food policy, “rather than just bowing continually to the federal food police that don’t want you to be able to sell a pound cake to your neighbor or make quiche in an uninspected kitchen and sell it to your friends,” says Salatin.

“And what this is is ultimately a food choice revolution and that would do more to reduce the cost of local food to make it equitable for all people than any single thing that we could possibly do.”

3. Eliminate all subsidies.

“And when I say all, I mean all - all subsidies to build ethanol plants, all subsidies to turn chicken manure into bio-diesel, all subsidies to grow corn, all subsidies to grow cotton - all subsidies period,” he said.

4. Edible landscapes.

Cities should encourage edible landscapes, from plants to animals. With anti-chicken or anti-domestic livestock ordinances, many cities have a “tremendous anti-agrarian mindset,” he said. “Cities and localities need to be very aggressive about creating a friendly, encouraging environment for in-city farming.”

5. Season extensions to localize out-of-season production.

For more information about the lecture or Kirkland Health Fair, visit www. kirklandhealthfair.org Salatin threw in one more local solution for good measure: reduce all taxes.

This would allow families to keep one wage earner at home to take care of livestock, can, process and fix all the meals to “truly extricate and free itself from the industrial food system,” he added.

All this, plus one of the highest rates of melanoma skin cancer in the country.

Skin cancer is the most common of all cancers; an equal opportunity disease that affects the young, the old, and everyone in-between—including people with picture perfect skin and darker skin tones. And despite our cloudy Pacific Northwest skies and affinity for rain gear, Washington State boasts one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the country.

That’s why it’s important to get a head-to-toe skin cancer screening from a board-certified dermatologist at Minor & James Medical. Because healthy skin starts with healthy habits—like sunscreen, hats and a skin cancer expert who can detect basal cell, squamous cell, and melanomas long before they have a chance to spread.

Be safe. Get screened.

In January 2010, the Kirkland Solid Waste Division purchased and piloted two garbage and recycling kiosks, one at Marina Park and the other at Lake Street and Park Lane. The pilot overwhelmingly proved the compactors to be a superior alternative to the ordinary street garbage can. The 46 new compactors are provided to the city and its residents at no cost as a part of its new solid waste contract with Waste Management, Inc.

BRIEFS Kirkland Pump Station overflow King County wastewater utility crews were able to restore normal operation at the Kirkland Pump Station in downtown Kirkland following a power failure that occurred on Thursday.

The outage was caused by a power surge that occurred while King County utility off-site crews were performing routine maintenance. The pump station has an emergency generator that failed to engage due to a faulty breaker, which required staff to call an electrician who was able to restore power within 50 minutes.

During the outage, an estimated 8,000 gallons of wastewater overflowed for 18 minutes through an emergency outfall into the local storm water conveyance system that drains to Lake Washington near Plaza Marina Park.

County staff took water quality samples in the lake, posted public areas as closed, and notified health and

regulatory agencies about the overflow.

Twenty three of the compactors will be paired with recycling receptacles to create kiosks to make recycling more convenient for residents and visitors downtown.

The compactors will provide the city with up to five times the garbage capacity of the existing 32-gallon garbage cans while at the same time making collection more efficient by reducing operating costs, fuel usage, and greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80 percent.

Each compactor unit is equipped with wireless communication hardware that will enable WMI and city staff to recognize in real time when a compactor is full and

The opening date for tolling on State Route 520 remains up in the air as testing continues.

As the plan went through the Legislature earlier this year, the goal was to open it as soon as possible to collect revenue to help rebuild the floating bridge. But the test-

ing has proved complex, and the opening date has been delayed several times. As a result the Washington State Department of Transportation doesn’t have a firm date in mind. Testing is expected to continue through July, at least.

“We’re just working on testing and trying to do everything as soon as we can, but we’re really trying

for $1.1 billion of the $4.65 billion project. WSDOT is still attempting to bridge a $2 billion funding gap on the project.

Michaud said some of the difficulty in setting up the system comes with the fact that WSDOT wants to avoid using one big fund for all tolling sources.

“Because of photo tolling, because of all electronic system on 520, because we have a very specific account system, I believe most systems across the U.S. don’t have the level of scrutiny of our facilities,” Michaud said.

“We’re very particular that all the income that comes through one facility stays in that facility, and that makes the finances and accounting more complicated.”

is “un econo mical ”

Frontier agrees.

FiOS TV is the wrong choice.

Switch to XFINITY® and get the best entertainment for the best price.

Recently, Frontier Communications announced that FiOS TV was “uneconomical.” They have taken a series of steps to discourage new customers from signing up for FiOS TV, and encourage existing customers who have FiOS to switch to other services like satellite TV. Fortunately, there’s a far better option. With XFINITY® from Comcast you get access to over 60,000 On Demand TV shows and movies, on TV and online. You can’t get that with satellite. You’ll also get access to the fastest Internet to more homes than anyone, plus smarter home phone service for less.

Get home entertainment that’s here to stay with XFINITY.
