New Kirkland Costco gas station to open in May Site is last in state to build fuel station, will ultimately have more parking stalls

The new Costco gas station is slated to open on May 24 and Costco executives said there will be more parking stalls as well. CARRIE WOOD, Kirkland Reporter

he construction in the Kirkland Costco parking lot can be seen from the freeway. Big machines tearing up the asphalt to make way for a parking lot expansion is not generally a very interesting topic. But when it is part of a project that has to do with discount gas – that is a story.

The business that was

once headquartered in Kirkland is finally building a gas station to the delight of customers.

“I’ll use it,” said Redmond resident Iola Stetson, who shops at the Kirkland Costco. “We use the Woodinville (Costco gas station) and it is 30 cents cheaper.”

But it has been a long time coming as the Kirkland location was the last in Washington State to get a gas station, said John McKay, executive vice

Many families flock to downtown Kirkland for the Fourth of July parade. During the summer, Kirkland Uncorked brings wine enthusiasts and food connoisseurs to downtown Kirkland, while car collectors visit for the Kirkland Classic Car Show. Music lovers have the Kirkland Summer Concert Series.

But a group of Kirkland residents is preparing to bring a new and more inclusive event to downtown Kirkland SummerFest. The event is expected to draw more than 10,000 people.

“This was the brainchild of dozens of highly involved Kirkland citizens to celebrate all the good things about Kirkland,” said local blogger Rob Butcher, who is the co-chair of the event along with Market Neighborhood chair Michelle Sailor. “All the volunteers are trying to put Kirkland’s best foot forward.”

Kirkland SummerFest will be free to the public and will take place in downtown Kirkland on August 10-11. The event is currently looking for volunteers, entertainers, vendors and business sponsors.

“The presenting sponsors are the Kirkland auto dealers and it benefits the Lake Washington Schools Foundation,” said Butcher.

One staple of Kirkland’s summer events, the Rotary Duck Dash, will move to SummerFest.

“The Rotarians have a wonderful history with the Fourth of July Parade,” said Butcher. “But they wanted an opportunity to spend the Fourth of July with their families. Plus, this gives them an extra month to raise donations. It is an honor to be working with them.”

Organizers have an ambitious event schedule that includes: Shakespeare in the Park, a SummerFest Regatta, various kids’ events, live music, 15 gourmet food trucks, Art in the Park and a baseball game at Peter [ more SUMMER page 5 ]

open date of May 24.

“Most Costco gas stations are six or eight pumps – this will be a 10-pump gas station. This is a fairly large one,” said Wayne Bowman of Ferguson Construction.

Ferguson Construction broke ground on the project on March 26 and recently installed the three gigantic gas tanks, two for unleaded and one for premium gas.

A fourth tank will be placed soon for additives that go [ more GAS page 3 ]

Kirkland’s Ramos ends campaign for 48th District seat

BY CARRIE WOOD cwood@kirklandreporter.com

Mexican-born small business owner Santiago Ramos announced Tuesday he is ending his bid for state representative, Pos. 2 in the 48th Legislative District.

“My business has been

picking up in the last couple months to the point where I would not have the time I believe it will take to run a competitive legislative campaign,” said Ramos in a press release. “I will continue to look at public service because I want to give back to

a community that has been such a big part of my life. However, I have decided now is not that time.”

The Kirkland resident and Democrat launched his campaign in March and was set to challenge Bellevue resident Cyrus Habib, also a Democrat.

That leaves Habib as the only candidate so far who is running for Pos. 2, which was held by Kirkland resident Rep. Deb Eddy.

Eddy announced in March that she will not run for another term in the state Legislature.

HOW A FAMILY-OWNED FERRY SERVICE IS

GOING THE DISTANCE FOR LOCAL RESIDENTS — AND THE SEATTLE ECONOMY.

For more than 25 years, the iconic red-and-blue Clipper fleet has been ferrying commuters and vacationers alike between Seattle, Victoria, B.C. and the spectacular San Juan Islands. To keep the fleet as modern and comfortable as possible for passengers, Clipper Vacations began working with Bank of America in 2007.

We initially helped by restructuring loans that enabled engine upgrades, allowing the fleet to reach speeds of up to 30 knots. More recently, we provided financing to modernize the fleet’s interior cabins. It’s a relationship that’s not only helping to get Seattle residents where they need to go — it’s also helping to generate local economic growth: the family-owned fleet employs 150 people.

Clipper is another example of how we’re working to help locally based businesses grow and hire in the Puget Sound — and across the country. In 2011, we provided $222 million in new credit to small businesses in Washington — an increase of 28% from 2010.

The company began the work on the gas station in 2009 when they applied for changes with the City of Kirkland.

“The zoning regulations were amended for gas station use,” said City of Kirkland Senior Planner Janice Coogan. “They even met with the neighborhood association up there several years ago. This has been in the works for quite a few years.”

But the work comes with some conditions from the city. Costco has to install sidewalks from 120th Ave. N.E. to 123rd Ave. N.E. on N.E. 90th Street. “They are also improving the pedestrian walkway on N.E. 90th Street to Slater Ave. N.E.,” said Coogan. “They are reconfiguring the existing parking lot and adding landscaping.”

The reconfiguration of the parking lot will also give the store more parking than it started with, said McKay. Costco has also agreed to upgrade the crosswalk from the main building to a small parking lot they own across 120th Ave. N.E. with pedestrian lights.

QFC Supports The Nature Conservancy’s Efforts to Protect Our Heritage Each month QFC is proud to support an organization that is making a positive impact on our community and our world.

In April, we are pleased to continue our association with The Nature Conservancy as our Charity of the Month. This is a partnership that goes back over 20 years. The Nature Conservancy is doing important work to preserve plant and animal biodiversity in every state in the U.S. and over 30 countries around the world.

For over a decade, The Nature Conservancy has been using a collaborative, sciencebased approach combined with key analytical methods to decide where to work and what to conserve. This approach is called Conservation by Design. The concepts of Conservation by Design include: setting goals and priorities, developing strategies, taking action and measuring results. Using these concepts, The Conservancy focuses on finding the highest priority solutions in places where they can have the greatest impact.

There are four priority targets in Washington which the Conservancy has been working on. These targets are: clean up Puget Sound, restore Washington Coast salmon

runs, restore forest lands in Eastern Washington and preserve Washington State sagelands.

The Nature Conservancy notes that “Puget Sound is slowly dying from toxic runoff, changes in the quality and quantity of fresh water, continued loss of natural shorelines and the effects of rising sea levels.” To clean up and protect the Sound, the Conservancy is working to reduce toxic runoff and to make conservation more profitable for for farmers, timber managers and shellfish growers, and the lands and waters they manage. It is working to protect and restore important rivers and shorelines to safeguard the clean water and habitat they provide.

The numbers of wild salmon on the Washington coast have plummeted over the last few decades. Salmon need the clear, cold waters of Northwest rivers in order to spawn and survive. Protecting salmon on the coast becomes possible by restoring and protecting the rivers where they spawn. Recently, the Conservancy purchased 3,088 acres in a corridor along the Clearwater River and plans to restore the forests along the river. This restoration work will provide jobs and create an

environment that will help in salmon recovery.

Restoring forests in eastern Washington is also one of the Conservancy’s priorities.

Large-scale restoration projects will help protect habitat for wildlife and strengthen the overall ecosystem to protect against mega-fires and insect outbreaks. The Conservancy works with local communities and with public and private managers across ownership boundaries to pursue beneficial forest management practices.

Washington’s sagelands contain hundreds of unique plant and animal species.

Unfortunately, two-thirds of these natural environments in Washington are gone due to ranching, agriculture or other development.

The Conservancy is working with farmers and ranchers to restore sagelands and to provide a place for wildlife to roam free.

The Nature Conservancy is working to preserve and protect our natural heritage for future generations. If you would like to contribute to their efforts you can do so at your local QFC during the month of April.

EDITORIAL

Don’t be a victim twice over

M

any of us have heeded police officers’advice to make our vehicles less attractive to thieves.

Store your valuables out of sight or take them out of the car if you can. Do not leave purses or briefcases where potential thieves can see them.

Apparently, this may not be enough anymore.

The Eastside – including Kirkland – has been hit with a series of motor vehicle prowl and burglary incidents during the past few weeks.

Police believe several recent cases involving similar scenarios may indicate thieves are using a new strategy to burglarize homes.

Here’s the scenario: A person goes out to see a movie or eat at a restaurant and parks their car. A thief prowls their car and takes the person’s vehicle registration. Police believe the registration information is used to draw thieves to the unoccupied homes.

The Kirkland Police Department has seen at least two of these incidents in the past few weeks, says Sgt. Rob Saloum.

“There has definitely been an increase (in these cases) recently,” he said.

In one case, someone’s car was prowled while parked in Kirkland and then the thief burglarized their Woodinville home. Another victim’s car was prowled while parked in Woodinville, and then the thief burglarized their Kirkland home while it was unoccupied, said Saloum.

Redmond also recently had a string of these incidents. In one of

the cases, the victim was a Medina resident but their car was broken into while in Redmond.

In another case, a vehicle was broken into in the parking lot of the Regal Bella Bottega movie theater in Redmond and then the victim’s home in unincorporated King County just outside of Redmond was burglarized.

In a third incident, A Redmond resident’s car was prowled while in the parking lot of a Woodinville movie theater. While the victim’s home was not burglarized, Redmond police say they received a report of suspicious circumstances in that neighborhood, which may have been tied to the vehicle prowl.

Redmond police said they are aware of more incidents in at least nine neighboring jurisdictions, including Bellevue, Issaquah and Bothell.

The best thing you can do is keep your vehicle registration information on your person and not in your vehicle, said Saloum. Go through all the contents of your car and make sure there is nothing with your home address or other identifying information on it.

Also, if you are a victim of a vehicle prowl, let police know if your registration information is missing so that they may make sure your home is safe.

Protect yourself. Don’t be a victim – twice.

Bigotry is alive and well How exciting it is to see that bigotry is alive and well. Mr. Jared’s proposal (Gay Marriage, April 6) that we overturn civil rights laws and roll the clock back a few decades to allow for unbridled discrimination is brilliant and will surely be welcomed by enlightened citizens. Perhaps from atop Mr. Jared’s libertarian high horse, he cannot see that we live in a society and are not 311 million autonomous free-floating entities.

I wonder if Pastor Hutcherson has pondered a scenario wherein every private enterprise that does not discriminate against minorities would refuse to associate with bigots.

People who share the pastor’s (clearly non-Christian) beliefs would find themselves living cold and alone in a commune somewhere far away. This, of course, is not the case. Virtually all shopkeepers, lenders, and landlords do associate with bigots and libertarian columnists, not because they condone the self-righteous, hateful lifestyle but because tolerance is the right thing to do. Although Mr. Jared would assert that it is a property right to put up “Christians and Libertarians Unwelcome” signs, I think he can be glad that reasonable people do not. It cuts both ways, gents.

Seth! Leary, Kirkland

Jeff Jared’s commentary was hateful I was very disturbed and disappointed to read the commentary written by Jeff E. Jared in your newspaper on April 6, especially given that he stated that he originally wrote a column in support of legalizing gay marriage. Nobody is forcing an association with anybody, and the idea that this commentary even got printed is appalling to me, and I am sure that it is to many other people as well.

If I were to run a small business, or rent my basement or need a nanny I would not be allowed to discriminate against a Christian person. I also wouldn’t want to discriminate against that person if they were the right person to patronize my business, be my tenant or look after my child. Closing off a whole portion of society is not only narrow-minded, but it is also abominable to imagine that it is even a consideration in this day and age, in this country.

Also, if the entire commentary that was printed about the “forced association” between Christians and gay people had the word “gay” replaced with any of a range of other words, would it be printed in any newspaper?

Try rewriting the commentary replacing the word gay with the word black,

Hispanic, Jewish, Mexican, Muslim or the name of any other group and see if it is still something that you can feel good about printing.

This law does go into the private lives of people, it goes into the private lives of regular citizens of this state that just happen to be gay. It goes right into their lives and makes them a valid and equal member of society with equal recognition just like heterosexual people.

It allows their children to feel that their parents are equally valid and it lets them be able to say that their parents are married. It allows them to stand up in front of their friends, family, coworkers and each other and profess their love for each other. It does not go into the lives of anyone else and change them at all. When this law goes into place everyone will wake up the next morning and nothing will be different at all with the exception that one more discrimination will be removed from society.

Mr. Jared points out the protections that have been written into law to state that religious organizations will not be forced to carry out these marriages. I understand his concern about other organizations being potentially “forced” to serve someone that they are not comfortable with, but I don’t think that this is really going to be an issue. LGBT people, in the main, want to do business with the people

that they feel most comfortable with.

I would also say that the majority of business people want to do business with people who are going to bring them money. I am sure that they are going to welcome our dollars with open coffers - and if not then we are not going to support their business.

There are going to be plenty of other Christian businesses out there that will welcome our dollar.

Also, the idea of a private family inviting only a certain group of people to a party has nothing to do with laws - it is about people inviting their friends to come to their house. If they only have a certain type of people as their friends then that is all that they will invite.

I have a wide range of different friends and they are all equally welcome in my home. I know straight people and gay people, religious people and non-religious people, black, white, Asian and all other types of people. It makes for a much more interesting life than just sticking with the same groups that you belong to - I enjoy the diversity that my life contains.

Please, consider the deeper ramifications of what you print in this newspaper in the future. I am all for allowing people to have freedom of speech, but this type of article is hateful and nothing else.

Zero One Vintners: A special blend in Kirkland

BY ROSE MARIE GAI UW News Lab

Recently opened Zero One Vintners is a hidden treasure in downtown Kirkland. It is tucked behind Lake Street in the vicinity of Anthony’s Home Port. It is well worth the search.

Owners Thomas and Kristin Vogele chose the Kirkland location for sentimental reasons. Though they are Redmond residents, they are graduates of Lake Washington High School. The couple met and dated while in high school.

Thomas has been in the wine business for 20 years. He is currently the sales manager for national accounts for Michael Mondavi’s Folio Fine Wine Partners. In the past he worked in a sales capacity for E&J Gallo, Trinchero Family Estates and Robert Mondavi. Kristin has worked in the tech industry since college. She is currently on leave of absence from IBM. The winery reflects a blend of their professional backgrounds.

“By using a zero and one in our name, we are paying homage to the digital era that we live in,” Thomas said. “Our winery is where high-tech crosses roads with a very low-tech, thousand-year-old industry.”

Zero One Vintners was born out of the idea that Thomas and Kristin wanted a wine that suited their “European palate.” The winery has been in existence since 2006 and is currently selling its fourth vintage.

Wine is produced at their Kirkland

Kindercare open house April 18 Come explore Kindercare’s summer camp preview during an open house from 4:30-7 p.m. Wednesday, April 18 at Kindercare, 14230 Juanita Woodinville Way N.E., Kirkland.

The event will include free activities, such as a scavenger hunt. For more information, contact Alisha Klaassen at

location and also at a custom-crush facility in Mattawa, in Central Washington.

Zero One was the first winery worldwide to use technology in attaching the Microsoft Tag to their labels, which allows smartphone scanning. Since then other wineries have followed suit.

Zero One is currently producing three types of wine: Wild Sky Cabernet ($30), Golden Delicious Riesling ($13) and Sauce (a merlot blend, $12).

Wild Sky and Golden Delicious have consistently been rated in the 90s by Wine Spectator magazine, with Sauce capturing 88 points.

Because Zero One produces its wine in small vintages, the availability is limited. Beyond the tasting room, their wines can be purchased at Pete’s Wine Shop and Esquin Wine Merchants as well as some restaurants and grocery stores.

Wild Sky Cabernet is named after Washington’s Wild Sky Wilderness Area, which is over 100,000 acres of pristine wilderness in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of Wild Sky Cabernet is donated to the nonprofit Leave No Trace, which educates the public about outdoor enjoyment with minimal impact.

Zero One’s choice of Leave No Trace reflects the lifestyle of a Washington resident, Thomas said: “They hike, ski, they are outdoor people.”

that Washingtonians value in their spare time.

Zero One Vintners is releasing two new wines in May: a Chardonnay and a Sauvignon Blanc. A Syrah will be making its debut in a year.

Tasting room manager Derek Pergl said that typical visitors to Zero One right now “seem to be people centrally located in Kirkland out enjoying the weather, though we have had some out-of-town visitors.”

Yet Zero One is more than a tasting room.

“We are a bonded winery, which means we will be producing wine here this fall,” Thomas said. A benefit to making wine on the premises, he said, is that it provides “interactivity with our customers.”

Kristin added: “I love meeting new people and introducing them to our wines. We have received such a warm welcome from everyone who has come in. There is no question we made the right decision to open in downtown Kirkland.”

informed, because of Toby’s work as a legislator, as a municipal official and as an extremely hard-working and dedicated officer of WCOG.” Nixon was nominated by the WCOG, the state member organization of NFOIC for which he has served as president since 2007. During his time at WCOG, he has built the organization into one of the most effective state coalitions in the country.

The organization played an instrumental role in the 2010 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Doe v. Reed, which affirmed a lower court ruling that disclosure of the identity of petition signers does not violate the First Amendment.

WCOG has also filed nine amicus briefs to support other open government cases in Washington Appellate Courts, tracked over 75 bills in the Washington State Legislature, and significantly expanded public outreach by hosting an annual Washington State Open Government Conference.

Fighting numerous appeals and court cases to ensure the release of the public records, Nixon’s hard work in the Doe v. Reed case paid off when in November, 2011, the records were finally released to the public.

Induction into The State Open Government Hall of Fame signifies the “long and steady effort to preserve and protect the free flow of information about state and local government that is vital to the public in a democracy.”

A committee that includes a representative of SPJ, a representative of NFOIC, and at least one additional at-large member evaluates all nominations. Each year, judging commences after Sunshine Week in mid-March. To ensure the integrity of the process, judges only become known to each other in the latter stages of the judging process.

Nixon has been praised for his coalition-building as well as his successes as an open government advocate. Tony Pederson said, “Toby Nixon is a treasure for the state of Washington for his extraordinary focus on freedom of information. His efforts over an extended period of time have involved working at every level of government and with numerous constituencies to build consensus on the importance of transparency and open government.”

In recognition of his commitment to open government and public information issues, Nixon also won the 2006 Freedom’s Light Award from the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association.

STEM School to be housed temporarily at Eastlake Reporter Newspapers

Construction of a new $26.5 million science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) high school in Redmond will not be completed in time for the start of the 2012-13 school year following a delay in the permitting process, the Lake Washington School

District recently announced last week.

As a result, LWSD’s new choice school will open in the fall of 2012 in a temporary setup at Eastlake High School in Sammamish — approximately four miles from the planned STEM school site near Alcott Elementary School in southeast Redmond.

permits have pushed the completion of the first phase of the three-phase STEM school project until late fall or early winter, forcing the district to house up to 300 STEM students — all ninth or 10th graders — at Eastlake in the meantime.

“I know the Eastlake staff, students and parents will be gracious hosts for their STEM school counterparts during this short-term stay,” LWSD Superintendent Dr. Chip Kimball said in a press release. “I recognize the inconvenience involved and appreciate their understanding.”

Two appeals to the new school site’s conditional use permit were filed last December and denied last week, according to the press release.

Construction of the school’s first phase can begin after a 21-day waiting period if there are no more

legal challenges, according to district communications director Kathryn Reith. If there are no further legal challenges or construction delays, the district is aiming to open the first phase of the new STEM school to students sometime in November, said Reith.

The district will provide bus transportation to STEM school students between their home high school and Eastlake and that bus service will continue once the STEM school opens, Reith said.

She added that the district has already done “a lot of traffic work,” including the addition of a second entrance, at Eastlake in preparation for the new freshman on campus as the district switches to a fouryear high school configuration starting next fall.
