He said the issue could have been brought to a vote after the council had done its “homework” and there had been a public discussion on the issue.

“What is going to cloud the issue as to the best form of government, is in many people’s view this will be viewed as basically a recall election of the mayor (Rebecca Olness).

Patience seems to finally have paid off for Brad and J Johnson, owners of Johnson’s Home and Garden in Maple Valley.

Crews began work in April on the site where the new hardware store will go just north of where the business sits now.

“They started in April tearing down the buildings,” Brad Johnson said. “Since then, they’ve been grading the site. Hopefully by maybe the first of next year we might have a building to move into and a few months after that we might be able to open.”

Johnson said he hasn’t allowed himself to get excited yet for the new building, which will be 35,000 square feet, because the wait for construction to start on it has been close to a decade.

“It’s been so long, I’m still not quite believing it’s really going to happen,” Johnson said. “Until I

PJ’s Smoke Shack in Maple Valley was forced to close due to an unusual provision within the new federal highway bill that threatens so-called roll your own (RYO) tobacco businesses.

PJ’s Smoke Shack, located at 23714 222nd Pl. S.E, is one of several thousand businesses in the country that operate RYO machines, which customers use to roll tobacco into empty paper shells. The machines are roughly the size of an ATM. As part of the highway bill that was signed into law July 6, an unrelated provision, Section 100122, broadened the definition of a tobacco manufacturer to include RYO businesses, which makes them subject to the same federal excise taxes and regulations.

Karen Byrd, who runs PJ’s Smoke Shack along with Phllip Abbott, said the provision was “at-

Recession Proof Businesses

IN DIFFICULTY LIES OPPORTUNITY Editor’s note: this is the second of a two-part series which explores how businesses survived or even opened and thrived during the recession which began in 2008.

BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com

In the depths of the recession some saw opportunity.

Despite the difficult economic climate, the challenge finding financing for new businesses, drops in benefits and extensive work force reductions, this environment created chances for people to redefine themselves even if some of their friends and family wondered about their sanity.

Sue VanRuff, executive director of the Greater Maple ValleyBlack Diamond Chamber of Commerce, wrote in an email interview that it makes sense that some new businesses have opened up during the past few years and thrived. “For many entrepreneurs, the recession began as a nightmare but ended up as a dream come true,� VanRuff wrote. “What I hear most often is people were almost pushed in to it because their former employer downsized or outsourced their job and there was nowhere to go. But that’s where outsourcing is a double-

edged sword — their previous job was outsourced but that company still had the need for someone to do that work —what an opportunity to become that outside independent resource/contractor.

The bonus with that is the independence, freedom, and flexibility that self-employment offers.�

SEIZING OPPORTUNITY Chuck Reger, who lives on the Auburn-Black Diamond border, has been in consumer lending with various banks prior to industry-wide layoffs in 2008. “I had interviewed with some banks and things over the last couple years and was becoming increasingly frustrated with the lack of work in my career path so I was very motivated to find another option to I turned to the franchising option,� Reger said.

He had tried with some success the small, home-based business model to pay the bills such as an ATM operation as well as selling service warranties for cars.

Earlier this year, Reger encountered the ProTect Painters franchise opportunity, and decided to give it a shot. “It is a home-based business, that was first and foremost,� he said. “It was like my other career, where I worked out of my house, I liked that. No brick and mortar,

Why entrepreneurs pursued their dreams and how they made them work in spite of and thanks to the recession

to no overhead costs. I was a home improvement lenders, so, I knew something about the home improvement businesses.�

With his knowledge of contractors and the industry in general, Reger said, it seemed liked a good fit.

Still, it wasn’t the first thing that came to mind when he began researching business ideas. “I didn’t really search out a painting franchise, it kind of found me,â€? he said. “There’s a lot of deferred maintenance and (homeowners) may have been holding off on working on their properties, especially painting.I thought this was something I would enjoy doing talking to homeowners and helping their own properties while looking for a source of income while running my own business ‌ and this is fairly low-risk investment.â€?

Since opening up his franchise, ProTect Painters of Covington, Reger said business has been good.

It’s been a pleasant surprise. “I thought that there would be a lot of business when the economy turns, but, there’s been a lot of business going on this year,� he said. “Right now I have four different crews, they’re subcontractors that are all vetted, so I check everybody out to make sure

Courtesy photo they’re legitimate and insured then match them up for the job that’s most appropriate for their crew. That way the homeowner doesn’t have that worry, gosh, I hope I picked the right painter, I take care of that and then I project manage. It’s about producing a good project and outcome that people are happy with.�

Even still, VanRuff said new entrepreneurs should be careful, because “there are no guarantees, no silver bullets.�

It’s important to have a business plan, she wrote, to avoid getting

caught up in the emotion of starting a new venture.

This is particularly important for anyone starting up a brick and mortar store.

That doesn’t mean, however, that there can’t be success in that area, too. “Retail ventures are usually launched because an aspiring entrepreneur saw a void in the market or a pent-up demand,�

VanRuff wrote. “Historically, recessions have spawned new business models that were made [ more OPPORTUNITY page 4 ]

[4] July 27, 2012 [ OPPORTUNITY from page 3]

possible only because of a down-turn.�

Curtis Lang, owner of Curtis Lang Custom Homes, echoes VanRuff ’s advice to set emotions aside when opening a new business in a recession. “In a climate where there’s a lot of business going out, I’m the kind of person who goes, ‘Well, that means there’s just that much more opportunity for me,’� Lang said.

Lang, who also counts Sawyer’s Village in Maple Valley as one of his businesses, knows something about starting a new business. Less than a year ago Ristretto’s, a coffee shop in Sawyer’s Village, opened up in the lone stand alone pad in the center.

At one point there had been another concept for the building, but, Lang’s vision for it changed and he decided to put his expertise in other areas of business into a new one. “It made sense for us to do it,� Lang said. “The other users, the medical users and the business users, they were saying, ‘We need some food, we need some drink in this center.’ That wasn’t the only reason, but, it made sense to build my stand alone marquee building for that pad.�

And Lang saw a need

XXX DPWJOHUPOSFQPSUFS DPN t XXX NBQMFWBMMFZSFQPSUFS DPN in Maple Valley, especially given that the city considers that commercial center the third commercial zone along with Four Corners and Wilderness Village.

At first, the plan was to build then find a user. “But, because of how I like to do things, I thought, ‘Nobody’s going to spend the money to do it the way I want it to look,’� Lang said. “So, we built it, and I said, ‘I think we also kind of know what’s missing out there.’ There was a need. I wanted to give them a place where people would want to go out on a date and have a nice place to hang out.�

Lang said it wasn’t just a decision to start a business he knew nothing about.

There was much more behind the choice to design it the way he did, to bring in a feel reminiscent of a lodge on a lake, to give it a cozy, warm atmosphere where customers want to sit, drink coffee, eat a sandwich, sip on a glass of a wine, all while having a conversation with friends. “It was something that completed the center and in doing so it’s been a learning experience but it’s also been a lot of fun,� Lang said. “I think it’s also enhanced my building company. The people who come in and see, that has generated a lot of requests for what I really

do, which is building and design. It has proven in the first seven, eight months to really have the potential to be successful and people really like it.�

Lang has advice for aspiring business owners from his years of experience running his own company. “The key would be to try and keep your emotions out of it until you find out it’s something pencils out and performs,� he said.

Nicole Lucia and her sister, Celeste Palmer, made sure their business penciled out before opening up in November 2010.

Lucia and Palmer own Get Hot! Yoga in Sawyer’s Village and have had the opportunity to get advice straight from Lang, who is their landlord.

Both women, who grew up in Maple Valley, have practiced yoga since they were teens and both have led active lifestyles.

It was a dream for the sisters to open a yoga studio.

Not a huge surprise they were inspired to become entrepreneurs, Lucia said, because they come from a family full of them.

CAUTIOUSLY FOLLOWING A BUSINESS DREAM Still, that didn’t mean it was easy, especially during a recession. “It always seemed far-

fetched,� Lucia said. “Then things just fell into place.

We got certified ‌ we thought, ‘Why don’t we try to open a studio.’ We both grew up in Maple Valley and there was nothing out here. Maple Valley seemed to be a health conscious area.â€?

One thing they did before even considering opening a business was saved up money, Lucia said, then they found a small business consultant who helped them put together a business plan. “He made us think of things we normally wouldn’t have thought of,�

Lucia said. “It was really helpful to see actual numbers. He set up a graph in Excel that showed if you have this many students ‌ he put us through the best case scenario and the worst case scenario and went from there.â€?

Another thing Lucia and Palmer did before they opened was get signs made once they signed the lease.

The center the studio is in has high visibility on KentKangley Road so there were banners hung, an A-frame sign on the sidewalk, just as two examples. “The build out was a six month process so during that time we were talking to students,� Lucia said. “It seemed actually

pretty overwhelming at the time because we were still dealing with the build out and the start up costs and we were getting phone calls asking, ‘When are you opening?’�

Because they opened up as the weather was cooling off, Lucia said, the first few months went well which was good because when the summer months rolled around business tapered off a bit. “We were open long enough before those first summer months hit to get regular students and build a strong base to get us through those slow months,� Lucia said. “About four months or five months after we opened a studio opened in Covington and we felt that for a few months but we think competition makes us stronger.

So far, it’s gone very well and I have no complaints.

It’s what we love to do and it doesn’t seem like work most days.�

Lucia suggests to anyone who is interested in opening their own business to be prepared, to consider it from all angles, because “at first, it can be really draining.� “There are always little things that can pop up,� she said. “Really do your homework. There’s so many little details when it comes

to having a business.�

MORE LESSONS FROM THE RECESSION Ron Flores, owner of Bike Masters and Boards in Maple Valley, is a neighbor of Get Hot! Yoga. His shop has been open little more than a year.

Like the yoga studio, there’s a seasonal element to the business, something Flores knew about thanks to his years of experience in the industry which includes four years at REI, years at independent bike shops in Norther California as well as a stint as a volunteer running the American Velo out of Belgium.

Flores knew what he was getting into when he decided to open the store. “Understanding that we were in a bad economic time and that the bicycling industry as a whole is a tough business to make a living in, I believe that you really have to follow your passions,� he said. “It’s who I am, really, it’s what I’ve always done, it’s what people know me for. I just decided to roll the dice. I believe that I’ve got the skills and the industry know-how to survive, put together a good business plan, tried to start off small and conservatively and grow from there.�

Plus, it was a good location. Cycling, particularly mountain biking, is popular in this area with the trails nearby in Black Diamond as well as a short drive away in area parks. “This is a very good place for cycling,� Flores said. “It was underserved at the time I opened the shop. The cycling area and community is growing. Mountain biking is growing and we’re [ more OPPORTUNITY page 5 ]

XXX DPWJOHUPOSFQPSUFS DPN t XXX NBQMFWBMMFZSFQPSUFS DPN PUBLIC COMMENT AND MORE Prior to the 4-1 vote there was about 90 minutes of public comment from both sides.

Those supporting the resolution were seeking an opportunity to vote on the form of government.

Those speaking against the resolution cited more than 50 years with of the current form of government and argued if the issue was going to the ballot it should be done next year when the mayor’s term expires.

Also noted during the public comment period was Black Diamond does not have right of initiative and referendum in place that would allow residents to place a measure on the ballot.

There were some intense moments when those on opposing sides exchanged heated words.

Prior to the council consideration, Butkus proposed setting up a committee to study issues involving a change of government and forwarding a recommendation to the council and citizens.

Butkus also suggested the council may want to list the pros and cons concerning the two forms of government because once the resolution passed the council was “severely restricted from any further electoral participation by the Public Disclosure Commission.�

Deady said the issue is not new, but was brought up at a Town Hall meeting in January. She pointed to a Reporter article, “Change of government resolution in the air� from the Feb. 3 edition.

The council decided not to list the pros and cons and the resolution was moved to the floor by Benson. The councilwoman said the ma-

[OPPORTUNITY from page 3] fortunate to have miles and miles of trails in the Black Diamond area.�

For Flores, unlike the yoga studio, business is better when the weather is nice. “As long as the sun is shining, we’re doing very well,� he said. “Winter was slow, which is normal for this business.

We have been moving according to market trends, adjusting toward customer needs, wants and desires.�

As he considered opening the store, Flores said, he sought out advice from other business owners in a variety of industries. “Be flexible,� he said. “Don’t stick to your guns in the face of reality. I had plans going in thinking my store was going to be one type of store, it turned out the market needs were something else so I remained flexible. Take advice from everybody, filter it through your knowledge and do what makes sense for me in my local area.�

Flores also encourages aspiring entrepreneurs to start small and grow business from there.

Todd Hulbert, owner of Finally Found Books in Black Diamond, didn’t really start small.

Hulbert, who lives in Kent, like Flores had one plan for his venture but decided to go another route when the opportunity to take over Baker Street Bookstore from Bob

jority of emails she received came from community members asking the issue be put on the ballot, “and let people vote on it.� “It hasn’t been a secret,�

Deady said. “I have not gotten one person to sit down and talk to me about the change of government.�

THE MAYOR During a phone interview following the approval of the resolution, Olness raised three main points. “First, this is personal,�

Olness said. “This is to get rid of me. Second it is to stop YarrowBay. Third, they want control and they (the council) think by going to another form of government they can control staff.

They are trying to get rid of staff they don’t like. They really don’t understand government.�

The mayor said Benson brought the measure forward because she had been

selected by the Save Black Diamond group. “There were highly qualified candidates that were totally disregarded because they wouldn’t pledge allegiance to Save Black Diamond,� Olness said.

Benson was appointed to fill a council seat vacated by Bill Saas, who resigned due to work demands.

The Save Black Diamond website states the group is, “a network of volunteers and supporters who are working together to protect the Town of Black Diamond and the surrounding areas from irresponsible land development.�

Benson said during a phone interview that she was not a member of Save Black Diamond prior to the group endorsing her to fill the position. “I worked for 25 years for a civil engineer, developer and utilities contractor,�

Benson said. “These were

Charles who decided to retire earlier this year.

Finally Found Books re-opened under Hulbert July 7. “This is not the best time to be opening a bookstore because they’re closing right and left,� Hulbert said. “My original intent was to buy large quantities of books, sort through them and sell the more valuable ones online. I thought if I have to have a warehouse to store the books I might as well have a retail outlet. In the end I decided this was the place to be. The Maple Valley-Black DiamondCovington area just aren’t served by a business like this.�

Still, that doesn’t mean Hulbert isn’t aware of the challenges of owning a bookstore, especially during a recession. “The scary part is that so many people are moving over to the e-readers it’s causing many of the small, independent bookstores to go under,� he said. “It’s scary but I believe the community will rally behind us. The other thing we’re going to do is implement a buy local campaign and remind people that when they support their local businesses 67 percent of that money stays in the community rather than going to Wall Street.�

For Annette Cyr, owner of the Kid to Kid franchise in Covington, the recession seemed like the ideal time to open a store which offered values for families trying to stretch a dollar.

Cyr, a mom of two kids, also wanted the opportunity to

Of the Benson selection, Goodwin said there were five “highly qualified candidates. They all were very good.�

Goodwin also said, “I would never do anything Save Black Diamond told me to do or anyone else.�

Olness said, “This City Council keeps saying they want to listen to the people.

Do they want to listen to those who elected me or those who want to change the system?�

The change of government ballot measure requires a simple majority of Black Diamond residents to vote for it.

If the measure passes, Olness would complete her term as a council member, rather than mayor, through Dec. 31, 2013, and the council would have six members rather than five.

We’ve experienced a tremendous amount of growth even in the recession. Last year our average monthly growth was about 25 percent. My little store has become a top 15 store of the 72 that exists and we have one of the smallest stores.

Kids don’t stop growing during a recession.�

Still, the economic climate has had an impact, albeit indirect, on Kid to Kid. Whenever gas prices increase, there’s a trickle down effect, because it drives up the cost of shipping, deliveries, and so on. “We’re trying to fight that off as much as we can with our own sales,â€? Cyr said. “If you pay attention to the quality of items that you’re buying and selling, people gain confidence in you and shop there for one or two or three kids ‌ we become their main source. It’s working out really well.â€?

Still, even though Cyr may have found a recession-proof business, she cautions aspiring entrepreneurs. “Washington is a very expensive state to have a business in,� she said. “That was eye opening. You have to be realistic about what people are wanting in their area. You need to tread carefully because people lose their shirts on business ideas all the time. That’s hard because people want to follow their dreams.�

Benson said she does not believe it is a personal issue against the mayor, “at least from my point of view. A lot of citizens contacted me.

A lot of smart and involved people and they want the right to vote on this.�

Benson said she did not write the resolution but made the motion to place the measure before the council because of the responses from citizens.

Byrd said. “It was a bill that had to pass.�

According to Abbott, a 1998 Tahoma High graduate, the store had been open since February before it was forced to close. “I hate to see a lot of people getting shut down,�

Abbott said. “There was no warning whatsoever. I was pretty devastated.�

Byrd stated the shop was forced to close down because it’s impossible for them to meet the requirements the new law demands. Unless they find a way to comply with the law, or convince lawmakers to change it, the store will remain closed. “Right now if we operate

our store it’s a federal offense subject to five years in federal prison if we get caught operating it,� Byrd said. “Some stores are staying open, but I’m a single mom working three jobs with a baby I need to feed, so I can’t spend five years in federal prison.�

Byrd said she refers to their business as a “smoke shop� because of numbers differences between cigarettes and the tobacco they sell. “We use virgin tobacco,� she said. “We get our tobacco from an organic co-op of small farmers in Kentucky. Everything in our process is American made with American jobs, small farmers, American machinists making the machines in Ohio. Nothing is outsourced.�

The tobacco they use is also taxed at a different

There will be a green house that will allow for plans to be in the garden area for more than a couple months when the weather cooperates and doesn’t rain. There will be more parking as well as easier access to the store.

At one point Indianapolis-based Kite Realty, which owns Four Corner Square where Johnson’s is located, was ready

level than manufactured boxed cigarettes. The tobacco is also taxed differently at a federal level. In 2009, Congress raised the tax on RYO tobacco from $1.10 a pound to $24.78 a pound, but it raised the tax on pipe tobacco from $1.10 to $2.83 a pound.

Before the bill was passed, Byrd and Abbott said they received a letter from RYO Machine, LLC, which manufactures the machines. In the letter, President Phil Accordino stated that due to the impending legislation the company would not accept any requests for reloads of the machines unless the businesses were able to provide written proof they had obtained a tobacco products manufacturing permit from the Alcohol Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTTB), or that

they have entered nonprofit status and use it for non-commercial purposes.

He also stated they would not buy back any machines or accept return parts.

David Sutton, a spokesman for Altria, the parent company of Phillip Morris USA told The Plain Dealer, a daily newspaper in Cleveland, Ohio, that RYO businesses are manufacturers that should pay the same taxes and comply with regulations. Sutton also stated that the RYO businesses evade federal and state cigarette taxes, a claim Bryd called ridiculous. “Our response is we paid a 95 percent tobacco tax,� she said. “They’re taxed almost 100 percent before we even get it. I pay eight taxes on every dollar I make, so give me a freaking break.�

Rather than level the playing field, Byrd said, the

This was due a series of obstacles including the tanking economy, something Mark Jenkins, senior vice president of development for Kite told the Reporter in September 2009, nearly five years after the company purchased the property.

As of April 27, city staff told the Reporter that Kite had received land use approval for some new buildings as well as to remodel other buildings in the plaza, and at that time it was under building, engineering and construction plan review.

According to information on Kite’s website, kiterealty. com, the project is “planned as an 185,000 square foot community shopping center, Four Corner Square will host a big box and junior box tenants, plus new small shops.�

Maple Valley staff told the Reporter in April the only

new provision is simply forcing small independent businesses like her shop to close. “All these ma and pa shops are subject to rules and regulations that are impossible for us to meet,� she said. “We don’t have a tobacco washing station.

But in order for us to get this manufacturing permit we have to have equipment that doesn’t even apply to our industry. They don’t have a format for us to even apply for this license.

We fail the test because it doesn’t apply. It’s not equivalent‌.It was a dirty move. I’ve got six people out of jobs now. I was unemployed for a year and a half. My business partner has been unemployed for a year before we opened this business.�

Byrd said there is an online petition to have

President Obama look over the provision of the highway bill, which needs 25,00 signatures.

In Washington state, RYO smoke businesses have been fighting a separate legal battle against new legislation that would have required them to put cigarette tax stamps on RYO products beginning July 1.

A detailed site plan available on Kite’s website also shows a Walgreens drug store where Johnson’s is currently located as well as several smaller retail sites between the future home of the hardware store and a Grocery Outlet.

Overall, Johnson said, with the redevelopment of Four Corner Square and the addition of Maple Valley Town Center across the street this could be a busy part of the city which means patience may finally pay off. “We’re thinking that will be a big part of growth, Fred Meyer bringing more customer traffic to the corner,�

Johnson said. “It will just be a better area to shop in and we’re hoping to be a big part of that.�

just want to watch the world burn.� - Alfred, “The Dark Knight�

The war of the formal worlds

Formality has had a hard time fitting into this brave new world of informality. Whether it’s how we dress, what we say and even what we write, everything has progressively grown more and more loose and unrestricted.

I was very much raised in the formal world as a child. I was taught to address every single adult as “Mr.� or “Mrs.� And if they had an extra tagline to go with it, like “Dr.�, I was to use that, too. At Eastside Christian, the elementary school I attended, I was taught in the third grade how to properly write a letter with all the existing rules and regulations therein. So while other children’s “thank you� letters were about as long as a two-year-old’s first full length sentence, mine resembled a Jane Austen novel.

Mind you, this was the pre-Internet age before Twitter, Facebook, instant messaging, emails and even the proliferation of cell phones (cue gasps).

Since I tend to like structure and order when communicating, the practice stuck with me through the years as all these rules, apparently, were tossed out the window and replaced with a botched, deranged version of Morse Code and socially awkward but culturally hip phrases.

Due to the emergence of smartphones, email has become a much heavily used method of communication, whereas I was taught in journalism classes that phones were the way to go.

The trouble is there are no “unwritten� rules when it comes to the differences between writing a Facebook message, a text message and an email. Or a letter.

So when I write emails, I have a natural proclivity to be as a formal as possible without sounding stuffy or pretentious.

For example, my first week on the job, I referred to city officials in emails as “Mr� or “Mrs.�

Within a week, I was informed of my ability to speak to them on a first name basis.

But I still continue to address people with “Dear� and “Sincerely� when corresponding unless I have spoken to them a thousand times TJ Martinell Staff writer

City Council needs to listen to citizens A fellow at last Thursday’s (July 19) Black Diamond City Council Meeting — where many attended because of the possibility that the council was poised to put a resolution on November’s ballot for voters to choose between a current mayoral form of government and a city manager form — stated, near the end of a very lengthy opening comment period, that there was “an

already and the level of formality had been cast aside.

Apparently adding two words to the beginning and end of one’s email is too much for my editor, Dennis Box. A few days ago, I was writing an email to someone to set up an interview which he happened to glance at.

With a single hair flip, Mr. Happy transformed into Mr. Grouchy so fast it would have made Dr. Jeckle inquire as to where he could find a doctor giving out that kind of scrip. He reacted to the message as though I had made some horrific factual inaccuracy when referring to a Greek myth. “What are you, asking them out on a date?� he asked. “What?� “What’s with the ‘dear’? Are you dating them, or what?�

Journalists, as some of you may know through interacting with us, are never sarcastic. Ever.

Never in a million years. Our profession would fall apart tomorrow if we allowed reporters to be sarcastic, especially with one another.

I therefore took his comment literally and attempted to explain a concept called “etiquette� which a group collectively known as “civilized beings� tend to use when addressing one another in an effort to separate themselves from illiterate savages, i.e. people who text each other when

they’re sitting on the same couch. “We’re not living in the 1800s anymore,â€? Dennis replied. “You’re a reporter. You’re not writing them a love letter.â€? “So sorry for being polite toward people,â€? I answered. “I’ll do my best not to sound professional for now on.â€? “You’re hopeless.â€? “Don’t you have something better to do right now?â€? â€œâ€Śâ€Śdang it! My mind just froze!â€?

Despite consuming an entire pot of coffee, the extra dose of caffeine couldn’t help Dennis disprove my main assertion, which is that when it comes to any sort of writing there is no tone and it has to be controlled to prevent misinterpretation. I repeat: There is no tone in writing. You may have a voice or style, but there is no tone.

Too many people seem to not understand this, which is how the most innocent of messages can easily turn into a flaming war worthy of Vulcan, or Hephaestus if you’re Philhellenist like Dennis.

Adding a little formality to messages helps prevent one from coming off as blunt or curt. It’s not the pillar of civilization, but it plays its part.

If you happen to share my sentiments, please feel free to let Dennis know at dbox@courierherald.com or at 360-825-2555 ext. 5050.

Be sure to begin with “Dear Mr. Dennis Box.�

elephant in the room.�

And then, he described “the elephant�: he did not trust the mayor! Unfortunately, from the loud applause of the standing-room-only crowd, many seemed to harbor the same feeling.

There was another zoo animal in the room: the gorilla: the YarrowBay developments. The YarrowBay developments are the same ones that have and still do threaten the quality of life of not only Black Diamond citizens but also those nearby jurisdictions and neighborhoods that will feel the impacts of underlying flaws in the YB plans: overwhelming traffic, financial risk, the kids’ future education, environmental destruction, loss of the rural, small town atmosphere and more, identified for the former council (same mayor) by the Hearing Examiner — twice — and hundreds of concerned people through public testimony, repeatedly. Those same flaws motivated the remarkable voter turnout that radically changed their City Council in the 2011 election.

The gorilla is not gone. The gorilla, likely with the help of the mayor, because of the relationship with the new council, has placed the resolution

to change the government in Black Diamond on the 2012 ballot again this fall.

In January, the new City Council began with courageous decisions, but the mayor appeared, time after time, to impede much of what the people asked their new council to do: correct the remaining, considerable flaws in the YarrowBay plans. She gives the impression of following the YarrowBay agenda consistently. She seems to ignore the very loud, voting voice of her constituents.

The four new members who receive flack as rookies began, even before they filed to run for office, and continue to study the complexities of all the town’s issues — especially the devilish details of the developments‌the Gorilla.

They listen to all the people, continually, and many want their ears. At the public council meetings and forums, they each contribute and ask questions of the attendees. Their integrity is evident. It is obvious in those public meetings, committee meetings and work studies that they conscientiously “do their homework.� They [ more LETTERS page 4 ]

say they want the best for Black Diamond. It shows in their actions and reactions.

Because of the latter, the best for Black Diamond, they have persevered with the mayor and staff attempting to do what the voters have expected and for which they continue to ask ‌. until the approach of the KC Election Board deadline for additions to the November ballot drew too near. With many informed people urging them for months to do so, they approved the resolution last Thursday night.

Therefore, the elephant, most likely, will be back in the Council Chambers.

However, without a doubt, Godzilla the Gorilla will be a major, underlying factor as preparations are made in the city of Black Diamond for the Presidential Election of 2012. Watch for him!

He’ll likely be at the polls, too.

Judith Carrier Unincorporated King County Editor’s note: Carrier lives on Green Valley Road near one of the developments proposed by YarrowBay.

YarrowBay not wanted in city Last November the people of Black Diamond

spoke loudly and clearly about what they wanted for the future of their city. They voted in an overwhelming majority to oust the City Council members who supported developer Yarrow Bay’s plans for the city, and voted instead for Joe May, Ron Taylor, and Tamie Boxx-Deady.

Joe, Ron, and Tamie were elected by 75 percent, an historical margin. Approximately 66 percent of registered voters voted, which is a number equivalent to voting in a presidential election.

The vision of the Black Diamond citizens has not changed since last November. They still see the mega development planned by YarrowBay as a blight on our city. They do not want the environmental, traffic and many other negative impacts.

Simply put, the people do not want Yarrow Bay in Black Diamond. How much plainer must they be?

The citizens recognize that the mayor of Black Diamond, Rebecca Ollness, has not gotten their message about YarrowBay. The mayor of Black Diamond is blocking the will of the Black Diamond people by pushing forward YarrowBay’s agenda and thwarting the City Council.

The talk in the city is that the people would like to see the strong-mayor system replaced by a weak mayor-city manager form of government.

Yet, when Council mem-

Those who believe that the end justifies the means are likely thrilled by the appointment of Rossi to fill my vacancy. Those who, like me, have come to believe that the means defines the end may be more interested in the game by which the end game is being played out.

Wilbur and now promoted by the Senate Republican Campaign Committee, is an inferior candidate. Toft has a long history of disreputable behavior, and a current history of trying to cover it up - including intimidation those who seek to expose him. Yet they act together to promote him to an unwitting populace. It’s wrong, and I told them ahead of time that I would not suffer it silently.

I’ve tried to minimize the rant that wants to slip out because of my strong feelings about about politicians who treat the electorate disrespectfully, here by concealing and misrepresenting. Instead let me respond to likely questions/ assumptions.

This is not sour grapes. I leave office in good standing, not voted or pushed out of office, to accept a great opportunity as a graduating law student/bar candidate.

And I haven’t “flipped� to become a Democrat.

I believe in the Republican platform, emphasizing accountable government and individual freedoms, and I will be voting for Rob McKenna precisely because his integrity and wisdom will hopefully preclude this type of manipulation of the people in the future.

Do baby teeth really matter?

YES – they matter a lot!

Decayed or decaying baby teeth can potentially represent active infection in the mouth. Anytime there is infection in the body or mouth, it requires immediate attention by a physician or dentist, respectively. Long term, if baby teeth are left to rot, fall out, or get extracted, there is greater potential for permanent teeth to grow in and shift requiring future orthodontic care.

because I came from the Republican grassroots, and I now return to the Republican grassroots. I know for a fact that Democrats have similar issues, but I’m a Republican and I believe that you clean your own house first. Further, in elected office my first loyalty is to the people I represent, regardless of their party affiliation.

That is why I chose the term “Independent Republican� when I filed for re-election this year.

Yes, Kirby Wilbur is frustrated by my refusal to follow him instead of my conscience on some issues. Here’s the deal: I was elected to decide on behalf of the 5th District, and Wilbur was not. Suggesting that Wilbur, or any partisan leader, has a right to direct the vote of duly elected representatives is to suggest corrupting our Government of the People. Now, not many care what Wilbur thinks. His “Pflug you!� response clearly undermines his pretense of standing for “family values.� Further, his many conspiratorial accusations are silly because they fly in the face of the facts and timelines involved. I voted for marriage equality seven weeks before I even thought to apply for the GMHB position. I didn’t wait to tell the Party that I had a new offer and would be withdrawing my candidacy. I called within two minutes of the governor’s offer, and my phone records affirm that. Yet, as long as the hyperbole was mostly directed at my reputation, I chose to let it go.

I am speaking out after Rossi’s appointment, initially thwarted by skeptical Councilmembers, because it is the next step in the campaign to get Toft into

the Senate. No one seriously believes that Rossi is there to do my constituent work for 5 months. There were certainly other, better “caretakers.� I believe Rossi is there to use his stature as Senator to lend credibility to Toft and to continue to work his “friends� for money and endorsements.

His appointment also effectively shut out a write-in campaign by another Republican with credibility.

An arrogant Toft once told me that he thought I was tired. I do tire of good people doing nothing, and of abuses that need to be stopped. I do not tire of being a committed American citizen - one with 14 years of experience behind those closed doors. My time in the Legislature was an amazing opportunity and I am grateful to the hundreds of thousands of people that I have had the honor to represent. I feel I owe you this candor.

Today’s inside backlash is instructive, “What is she thinking? She’ll be looking over her shoulder for the rest of her life!� Are they serious? It was OK to accuse me of corruption, of selling my soul, to take my children’s name as a verb, and to openly declare that they would “burn Pflug to discredit Mullet?�

Yet if I speak the truth, which media investigation will soon confirm, I should live in fear of retaliation?

Such abuse of power only stops when you put your grown-up pants on, look the bullies in the eye, and call their bluff. I call.

Sincerely, Cheryl Pflug Maple Valley

It has come to a point now that Cody trains with Shannon Niday in Singer, Texas and started taking classes online to earn his high school diploma.

Cody said. “It’s all you doing it. You’ve got to be responsible and get everything done on your own.�

Training at the track as well as off are important, he said. “Most people, when they think of motocross, they think of you just sitting on the bike and twisting the throttle,� Cody said. “It’s a lot more complicated than that. It’s one of the more physically demanding and dangerous sports out there.

A hearty harvest of cool season crops

Kentwood students participated in the MultiCare Health System’s ninth-annual Nurse Camp that ran from July 16-20 in Tacoma.

During the five-day camp, students got an inside look at careers in health care, students will spend time in various departments at all four of MultiCare’s hospitals, visit six local colleges and universi-

WATER WHEN YOU HAVE NO SPACE: Apartment dwellers or those with a balcony or tiny patio can enjoy the sound of water and visiting hummingbirds by choosing a table-top recirculating fountain. Even a small water feature will add humidity, sound and the soothing look of water. Table top fountains can be found at home and craft supply stores in kits that include the pump, water receptacle ties, and participate in rotations throughout the hospital. “These local high school students are extremely motivated and interested in health careers,� said Liesl Santkuyl, Director of Nurse Camp 2012. “Several of them will be taking care of me and my family members in the not-too-distant future. I am always amazed at what bright, enthusiastic and motivated students attend Nurse Camp. We are lucky to have such talented people in our community.�

WATER WHEN YOU WANT TO ENJOY PLANTS - BUT HAVE LITTLE SPACE: If you have room for a half wine barrel or similar sizes porcelain container you can enjoy growing miniature water lilies and floating plants and make a great home for a gold fish or two.

Self-contained water gardens in pots work best when you pay attention to the delicate eco-system that is created when you group plants, fish and water together. The best place to explore your options for a mini-pond like this is to visit a garden center or nursery that sells aquatic plants. This is where you can also buy the container and special water plant fertilizer to get you started.

Never use regular plant food near or in a water garden. The nitrogen will cause shadowed professional nurses and health care providers as they care for patients in the Emergency Department, intensive care unit, surgical care areas, inpatient units and allied health areas at Tacoma General Hospital, Allenmore Hospital and Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital in Tacoma, as well as Good Samaritan Hospital in Puyallup.

A recirculating pump and pondless waterfall is the answer if you have safety concerns about adding water to the landscape.

A pondless water features includes a water fall that splashes into a bed of rocks and boulders and then the water drains below to a hidden catch basin and is recirculated back to the top of the waterfall.

There is no standing water so no risk of drowning and very little maintenance.

Simply use the hose to top off the water collecting basin under the rocks every few weeks during periods of no rainfall. In our garden the pondless waterfall we had installed ten years ago needs filling just a couple of

times during the summer.

It runs all year long with no other maintenance, no algae buildup, no chemicals, no insects but plenty of birds, butterflies and a resident frog.

There are many versions of a pondless water feature including large boulders drilled with a center hole that spouts a trickle of water. The water overflows from the top of the rock and is captured below the rock-filled basin.

These drilled rock water features take up little room in the landscape but add plenty of drama especially when located near a front door or back patio and lighted at night.

Rock quarries and landscape supply companies are a good place to start your hunt for the perfect rock fountain.

ABOUT NEUROSURGERY Break down the word neurosurgery and it’s easy to see that it is made up of the words “neuro� and “surgery.� Neuro references the parts of the nervous system including the brain, the spine, the peripheral nerves, and the arteries that are found in the neck. Surgery, of course, means the method of treatment. Neurosurgery is a highly specialized branch of medicine that treats the diseases and conditions that affect the nervous system, such as brain tumors, blood clots, spinal cord injuries, nerve damage, and other problems.

Because neurosurgeons are very highly skilled and have extensive training in treating and diagnosing nervous system problems, they are often called upon by other doctors for consultations.

The third week of July is time to harvest the cool season crops such as peas, lettuce, chard, radish and beets. Young plants of warm season crops such as corn, beans, cucumbers and squash will appreciate a side dressing of slow release or organic plant food this week as they gear up for big time veggie production.

Side dressing is not a fashion statement — it refers to the technique of spreading a band of fertilizer along the side of a row of plants where the tips of the roots would be growing.

Many veggie plants are in their adolescence and getting ready for peak growth so like teens everywhere they now have a huge appetite.

City considers revamping emergency response plans

BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@maplevalleyreporter.com

The Maple Valley City Council is considering an ordinance that city officials say would help better define and clarify how the city would respond to an emergency.

City Manager David Johnston said the city currently has an interlocal agreement with King County Emergency Management Department. The agreement, however, which was approved in 1999, said the city would be responsible for all areas located within the Tahoma School District, some of which are located

in unincorporated King County and outside the city’s jurisdiction. The new ordinance would be more compliant with federal guidelines for national incident management systems (NIMS), which are required for cities to have if they seek federal reimbursement for damage done during emergencies. “Whenever the governor issues an emergency or president issues an emergency our requirement for meticulous record keeping is critical,� Johnston said.

The local emergency management organization would handle emergency functions and operate

...local business

within the city limits. The LEMO would be run by a director of emergency management who would implement the city’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) through the organization.

The proposed ordinance would also give the city manager broad powers in the event of an emergency, such as a storm or earthquake. These powers include the authority to take command of the police department if the mayor issued a proclamation of emergency or disaster. The city manager would be also be able to issue executive orders related to the emergency or disaster, as well as require all businesses to close.

Johnston said that at present the city manager

has those powers under such a scenario, but the new ordinance defines those powers more clearly and what they are limited to. He also stated the ordinance also acknowledges existing networks in Washington “We did understand that there is a local and county responsibility, but we’re also a part of Area Three communities,� he said. “We meet regularly to make sure we’re all on same the page and we know who we’re going to be working with. That network wasn’t really recognized (before).

We were an island unto ourselves.�

Additionally, the ordinance sets out a chain of command in response to the injury or death of the mayor and city manager.

The deputy mayor would

assume the mayor’s responsibilities, and the finance director would take over as city manager. If the deputy mayor were also injured, the council member with the longest tenure would take over as mayor. If the finance director is unable to fill the city manager position, the public works director would do so.

City documents which outline the new emergency management plan states in the event of a disaster or emergency, Maple Valley residents should be prepared to operate on their own for at least three days without any government assistance. “It is the policy of the City of Maple Valley to make effective preparation for and use of available personnel, resources and

facilities necessary for dealing with any proclaimed emergency or disaster that may occur,� the documents stated. “Disasters and emergencies, by their very nature, may disrupt or destroy existing public systems as well as the capability of the City to provide public services, protect life, public health and public property.�

Johnston said the three days is a national standard. “After three days after an event there’s an assumption that the true damage from that event will be understood by that time,� he said. “And then you’ll see things mobilized like the American Red Cross. Things will have settled down, but during those three days you have to be responsible for yourself.�

Back to rehearsals with the opera the beat up Chevy.

However he didn’t even think twice.

When we first heard the distant singing of that one man we were at least a block away.

You can’t imagine how loud it is to be in one room with 80 adults and 30 kids singing all at once. It’s a little overwhelming. Luckily most of the time the kids get to finish up their songs first and leave right on time.

It usually takes an hour or two because of all of the big intros from the adults and the kids’ Italian that there is to fix.

We have all come so far since the first rehearsal when we all showed up not knowing a word of Italian except for ‘spaghetti.’ This week we start the long process that is ‘tech week.’ Although there are a lot of late nights, the rest of the kids that will be there with me will make everything worthwhile. We will have a lot of waiting for all of the lights, sound and costumes to be tested before everything will start to run smoothly.

Turandot will be performed at McCaw Hall in Seattle. McCaw Hall is this gorgeous building with a chandelier in the lobby

made out of little ladders and trinkets and a little gift shop with things you can buy related to the show that is playing. Inside is the best. The velvety carpet and marble floors make you feel like a famous person walking down the red carpet.

As well as the people performing in the opera having no specific look, some of the people who come to watch the opera look like they would have no interest! From ages 5-75 there always seems to be someone who enjoys visiting and hearing the stories of the opera. With opera, you really cannot look at a person and tell who might be on stage and who might be sitting in the audience.

In future weeks I hope to tell you all about how tech week went, and how the show is coming along at that moment.
