tukwila’sstory

City’s gem of a home Tukwila’s Story is written by Louise JonesBrown, acting director of the Tukwila Heritage and Cultural Center.

A beautiful turn-of-the-century house stands in the City of Tukwila between several modern hotels just south of I-405 on the West Valley Highway near its original location on the bank of the Duwamish River. It was built in 1905 as the home of James and Mary (Dobler) Nelsen and is where their youngest daughter, Helen, was born in the same year. Helen lived in the house for the majority of her lifetime. Her parents both died there, James in 1952 and Mary in 1934.

James Nelsen, along with five of his siblings immigrated to America in 1881 and had settled in Illinois before he came to Washington Territory. In 1883, James came to the White River Valley and went to work on Martin Nelsen’s (not related) farm. He decided to homestead on 20 acres and eventually purchased another 260 acres. He and his brother Ole later leased additional farmland where they raised potatoes. A portion of the original James Nelsen farm property was leased in 1934 by the Washington Jockey Club as horse racing had been legalized. The land was eventually sold and became known as Longacres Race Track. One of the original paddock barns from the track complex was moved across the road and placed near the current location of the Nelsen House.

Helen Nelsen was known as a hard

worker much like her father James.

They both believed that value was in the land.

She felt very sorry for the old houses of the area that no one cared for anymore but took measures for the Nelsen ABOVE: The Nelsen home House would in 1907, and BELOW, today. not only be Submitted cared for but be preserved for many more generations. The Nelsen Family Trust was established and allows the preservation for one of the original farmhouses in Tukwila.

The full-time caretaker, Craig Wooton, maintains the house and its beautiful grounds as well as managing the occasional rentals.

Tukwila garbage pickup changes Nov. 2

BY DEAN A. RADFORD DRADFORD@TUKWILAREPORTER.COM

On Nov. 2, a Friday, garbage collection is going to change in Tukwila.

From then on, all residential garbage will be collected on Fridays, rather than spread throughout the week, under the city’s new contract with Waste Management.

Recycling collection also begins on Friday, Nov. 2. On Nov. 9 yard waste/compostible collection begins and from then will alternate with recyclables. Residential recycling is included in the base rate; there is a monthly charge for a yard-waste cart. Residents must sign up for those services.

Waste Management route managers show off yard waste, recycling and garbage carts, from left, available to city customers. Waste Management

The base rate for residential residents will decline from what is charged by the current hauler, Allied Waste. For example, a

Recycling advice offered Oct. 17 Tukwila residents will receive information at a public meeting Wednesday, Oct. 17, about the new recycling program that starts Nov. 1 along with the new garbage service.

The meeting is at 7 p.m. at the Tukwila Community Center, 12424 42nd Ave. S., Tukwila A King County master recycler compositor will explain what is allowed in the recycle bin, how to recycle food scraps and food-

soiled paper and how to make recycling more convenient at home.

Those who attend will receive free recycling tools, including a compact nylon shopping bag, compostable bags for collecting food scraps, and scrapers to help clean out peanut butter and mayonnaise jars for recycling.

For more information, contact recycle@tukwilawa. gov or call 206-431-3683.

35-gallon garbage cart is typical for an average household. Waste Management’s base rate is $10.92 a month, down 23 percent from

Allied’s rate.

For all customers, there are fees and taxes on top of the base rate.

Waste Management’s sevenyear contract begins on Nov. 1.

The City Council approved the new contract after proposals were submitted by Waste Management, Allied Waste and CleanScapes.

“It’s a really good contract,” said Frank Iriarte, Tukwia’s deputy public works director. “That’s what you get when you compete for these services.”

The rates could change yearly, based on an increase in the Consumer Price Index.

The City of Tukwila and Waste Management are in the midst of an extensive outreach program to explain the new services to resi-

Business and apartment customers have their own set of options and decisions, which are explained as part of the outreach effort.

Current residential customers will need to make decisions about such things as the size of their garbage carts. Residential customers would get three carts, one for garbage (green), one for recycling (blue) and one for yard waste/compostibles (grey).

There was a discussion about using a green cart for yard waste.

But to avoid confusion, Iriarte said the city opted to stick with the current color scheme of green for garbage.

Before, Cullens said those people would be walking up and down the street, flagging down police cars, unsure what to do.

The department is hoping to get more volunteers to work the front desk, so they can have enough to put an “open� sign up and set regular hours.

The officers then gave the cards to neighborhood children who were acting responsibly – wearing helmets on bikes, wearing seatbelts when their parents get pulled over for speeding, etc.

Right now, with only a few volunteers in the center, Cullens said about five or six people stop in every day to ask questions, look for resources or file

There’s no getting around it: The Tukwila International Boulevard corridor is a high-crime area. But that isn’t a life sentence.

The city’s Police Neighborhood Resource Center opened in August and puts officers right in the heart of this high-profile thoroughfare. “It gives us a way to be closer to the community,� said Tukwila Police officer Ceith Cullens. “Having a neighborhood resource center here, centrally located in one of our highest crime districts, makes it so that the good citizens and residents who want to make a change have better access to the police.�

The center was closed for about a year and a half due to budget restrictions.

Since the center returned, Cullens said the community response has been overwhelmingly positive.

The thanks have ranged from regular citizens emailing or stopping in to express their gratitude, to businesses showing their appreciation.

Cullens said a Wendy’s manager came out to give officers gift cards after they arrested a drug dealer who was doing business in front of the restaurant.

out of the center, putting them closer to the highcrime district. Cullens estimated that there is an officer in the center eight to 12 hours each day. He said the officers enjoy working out of the center, since it’s closer to the majority of the calls. It also features a central location for video surveillance along the corridor, with several screens fed from the bevy of cameras in the immediate area. “I’ve seen the response times go down for this area, as far as 911 calls,� he said. “It adds more bodies to the area that work out of here to help combat the high call load to try to make it a safer place.�

Cullens said it’s about a three- or four-minute drive from the Tukwila Police Department to International Boulevard, so that time savings could be essential in emergencies.

Mostly though, having the center close just helps the officers to be a bigger part of the community.

The more they are seen patrolling on bikes, or in the center, the better.

The Police Neighborhood Resource Center is located at 14862 Tukwila International Boulevard.

The front desk is staffed by volunteers, but doesn’t currently keep regular hours. Community members should still call 911 in an emergency.

tukwilacommentary

Stop bullying by being kind to others October is National Bullying Prevention Month. The issue of bullying is of great interest to many of us who have suffered with our children the hurt bullies inflict.

Considerable effort has been made to combat bullying, but a quick look at news headlines each month lets us know that we need everyone’s assistance in this effort. Bullying is harassment, intimidation, and a form of violence that affects everyone; not only is the victim and bully affected, but those who see or hear bullying can also suffer damaging consequences. Many witnesses often fear that they will become the next victim of a bully and fail to get involved. These bystanders often suffer the same negative emotional effects as the bullies and victims. Bullying can lead to low self-esteem, depression, isolation, and alienation in both the bully and the victim long after the incidents have ended. In addition, many young victims of bullying do not want to come to school, leading to disengagement from the classroom and all that is offered by

public education. The story of bullies is one of the most important of our time.

I am taking this opportunity to ask parents to talk to their children about bullying. Please make it clear that bullying is wrong. If you suspect that your child is a victim of bullying, report it to the principal of your child’s school.

Mellody Please fill out the Matthes Bullying and Harassment Form that is available at your child’s school — it is also available on our Tukwila School District website. If you suspect your child is bullying other children, calmly make it clear that this is not acceptable behavior. Take time to discuss with your son or daughter the harmful effects of bullying and positive ways to interact with their peers. If your child sees bullying at school, on the school bus, or reads something on social media, encourage your child

to report it to a teacher and/or administrator.

The Tukwila School Board has taken a proactive approach in supporting our schools to stop the inappropriate behavior of bully-

“The story of bullying is one of the most important of our time.”

Mellody Matthes interim Tukwila school superintendent

ing. The board has updated the district’s policies related to bullying which address the behaviors and consequences of bullying among students and provides avenues for anonymous reporting they can be found on our website. This month, the Taproot Theater Co. is presenting a play to our students regarding the impact of bullying. Tuk-

wila schools prominently display signs against bullying. Our staff is trained to watch for and address the early phases that take place in the bullying of students. Some of the early signs are derogatory comments, insults, threats, and harassment of all kinds. Tukwila school personnel aggressively work to stop the negative behavior of bullying in the school setting and encourage children to talk about their feelings and to develop self-confidence.

The answer to stopping bullying can be boiled down to a simplistic thought: we all need to want to be kind. We should model behavior that will teach children that bullying is disrespectful and can be dangerous, and it is also against the law. Let’s be kind to one another and take seriously the responsibility we have within our capacity to influence how people feel. Our children will thank us for it.

Mellody Matthes is interim superintendent of the Tukwila School District. She will write regularly for the Tukwila Reporter about school issues.

Balanced approach is best approach Most of us have sufficient life experience to know what makes sense. For example, we know that the president is the chief executive and yet he or she cannot do everything that he or she promises. The president depends on the cooperation of Congress to implement domestic policies.

This does not always happen and, lately, rarely happens.

We understand that the nature of the is Chuck Parrish economy cyclic and subject to market demand. About 70 percent of the gross domestic product is consumer driven. A one percent decrease in GDP results in about one half percent increase in unemployment.

Manufacturers will not build new factories if existing factories can meet demand. You and I are hired only as a last resort if additional demand cannot be addressed through increased productivity and automation.

We export in order to stimulate the economy. If overseas demand falls, there is little that can be done

until their economies improve.

Growth is the mantra of both parties. Growth is a long-term strategy. Bottom line: there are no quick fixes for growth and jobs.

There ARE short-term counter cyclical or “shot in the arm” measures such as the 2009 ARRA stimulus.

This stimulus helped to reverse an economic downward spiral and establish an upward trend. More information is available at www.cbo. gov/publication/43552 A balanced approach in most

things is considered a healthy thing. The national economy is no exception. A balanced approach in addressing the issues of energy, revenues and debt just makes sense.

Both parties have a record of exaggeration and obfuscation. It is difficult to know what is right. We can do some fact checking with two outstanding on-line sources: FactCheck.org is a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania. The APPC was established to address

public policy issues at the local, state and federal levels. PolitiFact. com is a project of the Tampa Bay Times. Reporters and editors factcheck statements by members of Congress, the White House, lobbyists and interest groups and rate them.

We should put more emphasis on a political party’s social agenda.

Long term in nature, legislation around these issues affect our lives and the lives of our children. What a party thinks about issues like reproductive choice, health care, contraception, marriage equality and immigration matters. Your own point of view on these issues may affect how you vote. Much can be learned from the party platforms found at http://www.gop.com/2012-republican-platform_home/ and at http://www.democrats.org/democratic-national-platform In my view, too many men spend too much time trying to social engineer our lives with respect to children, families and marriage.

Enough already!

Bring the goodies from the campfire inside this fall with this take on sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;mores created by Seattle Chocolates. This dessert is perfect for Halloween.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;more Pieâ&#x20AC;? and it was inspired by the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Campers Sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;more Truffle Bar. The pie is a mix of chocolate and marshmallows in a graham cracker crust. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We ship approximately 1,000,000 pounds of chocolate a year,â&#x20AC;? said Kirsty Ellison, vice president of sales and marketing, via email. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our busiest time of the year is holiday.â&#x20AC;?

Tukwila-based Seattle Chocolates, known for its chocolate bars and truffles, will celebrate its 21st anniversary this year.

Company president Neil Campbell is a former engineer with Microsoft and now the resident chocolatier engineer at the company.

He develops most of Seattle Chocolatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; recipes.

The other recipes that they keep on Facebook, Pinterest and in their blog,

were submitted from Seattle Chocolate employees, of which there are about 50 full-time staff. Many of the employees are originally from places all over the world, including Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Vietnam, Greece and Nepal.

Seattle Chocolates moved to Tukwila from south Seattle six years ago, following

the Nisqually earthquake to have a much larger space.

Itsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; whimsical, feminine and fun retail shop re-opened last November. All of the products are sold there, including â&#x20AC;&#x153;secondsâ&#x20AC;? or bags of fresh chocolate straight from the factory for $5.

Headquarters comprise the retail shop, main office, a factory and a warehouse.

Now the company has six freight docks instead of one loading dock and a spacious temperature-controlled warehouse and manufacturing facility.

They have two gigantic machines from Italy and Denmark that make their truffles and bars.

Seattle Chocolates makes 22 different flavors of truf-

fles, including â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cocktail Truffles,â&#x20AC;? in flavors such as appletini, cosmo and lemon drop. Their most popular chocolate bar flavor is their San Juan Sea Salt Truffle Bar. Seattle Chocolates are found at the Pike Place Market retail shops, QFC grocery stores, Bartell Drugs, Made in Washington stores and many places throughout Western Washington.

The companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CEO is Jean Thompson and she was recently selected as a finalist for the second annual King County Executiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Small Business Awards in the Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Small Business category.

Staff is thrilled and delighted at Thompsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s selection in the awards, Ellison said.

Charitable giving has been a mission for Thompson and Seattle Chocolates with a number of products dedicated to giving back to the community. Previous causes the company has supported include the Seattle chapter of Glidaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Club, breast cancer and local non-profits. Recently they shipped a new line

of chocolate bars called jcoco, which bears Thompsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first initial of her first name.

The sales from this chocolate bar will help donate a fresh healthy serving of food to someone who would otherwise go without, Ellison said.

Seattle Chocolates also partners with Seattle-area, Hopelink and the Food Bank of New York in the northeast on their high-end jcoco chocolate bars.

On Thursdays from 1 p.m.-4 p.m., the retail store is serving up warm shots of chocolate.

Homeless find home at Tent City

BY STEVE HUNTER SHUNTER@ TUKWILAREPORTER.COM

Christine Johnson lived in her truck for eight months after losing her home and job before she discovered the Tent City camp for the homeless.

“It saved my life,” said Johnson last month at Tent City 3 in Tukwila. “I feel safe in Tent City where all are friendly.”

Tent City 3, overseen by Seattle-based Share/Wheel, moved to a vacant lot at Riverton Park United Methodist Church, 3118 S. 140th St., in August from Shoreline and will remain at the site until mid-November.

About 100 men and women live at the location.

The camp moves quarterly within Seattle, Tukwila, Shoreline and unincorporated South King County but has returned to Tukwila for the first time in about five years. Riverton Park also hosted the previous camp but did not offer to serve as a host for several years as it tried to sell the vacant land where the camp sits.

“We are very happy to be able to extend a welcome again to them,” said the Rev. Jan Bolerjack in an email.

“The five-year absence was

due to an impending property sale that took that long to fall through. For now the property remains under our authority and as long as we can, we will extend the welcome. We hope to host them as needed.”

Johnson’s glad to have Tent City. She lived in Sequim before losing her home when her father passed away. She also lost her job as a certified nursing assistant. She has lived on and off at Tent cities for about a year. She

has applied for Supplemental Security Income from Social Security and hopes to be able to move out of the camp in October.

“It’s a very humbling experience to be homeless,” Johnson said. “You look at it from a whole different aspect when you see a (homeless) person on the street.

When you’re working and got a home you look and see them and now it’s me.”

Tent City operates with a strict code of conduct which requires sobriety, nonviolence, cooperation and participation. Security workers are on duty 24 hours a day.

Litter patrols are done daily.

Those staying in the camp manage the community, working security, picking up litter or whatever else needs to be done. Others have jobs or attend school. Residents cannot afford housing or are on waiting lists for lowincome housing that can take up to two years before a place opens up.

“There’s no staff, we self manage,” said Jennifer Ingham, as she led a reporter

on a recent tour of the Tukwila camp. “Our commitment to the neighborhood is to improve it rather than detract from it. We pick up litter within two blocks.”

Bolerjack said Tent City has been a good neighbor.

“I am enjoying building relationships with the folks who currently call Tent City 3 home and pray daily that there will come a time when such a place is not needed,” Bolerjack said. “I would encourage anyone to come and take a tour. It is a mini city, well organized and clean.

The residents take pride in their city and are grateful to have the ability to be a part of their community, receive support from one another and give service to the area in which they find themselves.”

Tent City provides its own trash removal and port-apotties. Bus tickets are provided to each participant each day so they can get to work or appointments. The church provides electricity and water to the camp.

have lived in Tent City for one year. She worked as a pharmacist in Virginia before losing her job because of battles with depression and bipolar disorder and decided to return to Washington.

“I was the last person you would expect to be homeless,” Ingham said. “Everyone has their story. I lost everything when I was in the hospital for a few weeks.”

The homeless in Tent City come from all walks of life.

“We have nurses, chiropractors and anything you can think of,” Ingham said.

“It’s not all drug addicts like some people think. No drugs or alcohol are tolerated. We’re really strict about that. There are a lot of rules here.”

Indoor shelters struggle to handle all of the homeless and many also require residents to leave during the day. Ingham likes that Tent City provides a safe place for personal belongings and the ability for couples to stay together.

“We were living in

Bremerton, lost our apartment and were looking where we could stay together and couldn’t find anyplace,” said Ingham, who then found out about Tent City. “They had two spots left in Shoreline at the time.”

Ingham’s tent includes a donated mattress as well as shelves for clothes. It gives her a feeling of a home, but the weather can make conditions tough.

“When it’s wet and cold it’s pretty miserable,” she said. “It’s hard trying to stay warm.”

The camp has one shower, a kitchen with a microwave and coffee pot and a movie tent where residents can watch videos. Hot meals are provided by various volunteer groups in the evening.

Some people sleep in community tents that house up to 10. There are about 36 individual tents and 18 tents for couples. Children are not allowed in camps as part of Share/Wheel’s agreement with the city of Seattle that it also follows in other cities. Residents can bring in a pet.

“When you become homeless it’s hard enough when you lose your place to live,” Ingham said. “To lose your animals too would be really hard.”

While Tent City has regular residents, including one man for 12 years, most are looking for a new home.

“The rest of us are trying to get stable and move on,” she said.

But without the option of Tent City, Ingham doesn’t know where she would have ended up.

“I honestly can’t tell you what I would’ve done,” she said.

Tukwila Director of Athletics, Activities and Transportation J.D. Hill

BY ADAM MCFADDEN A M C FA D D E N @ RENTONREPORTER.COM

In the hallways of Foster High School, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s simply J.D. the AD, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s much more to J.D. Hill, director of Athletics, Activities and Transportation for the Tukwila School District.

Hill comes from an extensive sports background.

He played football, basketball and track in high school, then played football at the University of Washington. His father and three

brothers all played college football and had some time in the NFL. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Growing up with a dad in the NFL really motivated myself and my siblings,â&#x20AC;?

Hill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We saw it as a way to get an education and better our circumstances.â&#x20AC;?

This is his sixth year in Tukwila, and his focus and challenges involve much more than just wins and losses on the field or in the gym. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The No. 1 focus for me as an athletic director is to build a sense of commu-

Falls sports update Football The Foster football teams sits at 1-5 overall and 1-3 in the Seamount this season.

The Bulldogs played Evergreen Oct. 12, but results weren't available at deadline.

The struggle early on has been on offense.

Foster has been shutout two straight weeks and is averaging 9.33 points per game.

Cody Anderson has 285 yards, one touchdown and four interceptions at quarterback. He also has 82 yards and two touchdowns rushing.

Junior Devin Brown is having a strong season at running back. Brown has 514

yards and three touchdowns on the ground.

He's averaging 5.78 yards per carry.

Micah Breland is leading the team in tackles, with 33. He also has an interception and two fumble recoveries.

Phillip Saau has two sacks and five hurries. He also has four forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

Volleyball The Foster volleyball team is 7-6 overall and 6-6 in Seamount play this season.

The Bulldogs are in fourth place, second among 2A teams. Foster has league match-

nity where it is a safe place for kids to grow,â&#x20AC;? Hill said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have the most diverse school district in the country, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve designed our athletic programs as an extension of our studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; families and our school.

Since our school does not look traditional, our approach is not traditional.â&#x20AC;?

Hill said many of Fosterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s girls cannot participate in sports for cultural reasons, so he has to be flexible and willing to consider more options than other schools.

That leads to one of Fosterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

es left against Highline and Evergreen before heading to postseason play.

Foster also started a bit of an unconventional sport last year: badminton. More than 30 girls turned out for the team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is why we have to think outside the box and identify what our student interests are,â&#x20AC;? Hill said.

Another big win for Hill and Foster was the introduction of a girls swim team last year for the first time in the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history. The team was a success, sharing the Kennedy coaching staff and practice time. This year the team took another step forward and hired Amy Kindell as a coach for the Bulldogs.

Kindell joins a unique coaching group at Foster.

Hill encourages the Bulldog coaches to attend all out-ofseason events, to help build relationships with athletes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They know they can count on us,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The Bulldogs are in sixth place, third among 2A teams.

Sierra Parsons is leading the way with 14 goals. Aedyn Godina has four goals and an assist. Amna Hadzihasanovic has two goals and four assists. Marily Hernandez has one goal and two assists.

Parkway opening delayed by right-of-way issues SHUNTER@TUKWILAREPORTER.COM

The new Southcenter

Parkway extension in Tukwila will remain closed at least until next month as city officials wrap up a few right-of-way issues.

A public hearing at 7 p.m. on Nov. 5 at City Hall before the City Council will discuss proposed amendments to clean up

address” replacement access issues for two parcels along Southcenter Parkway right of way, according to city documents. City officials want to amend the initial ordinance to provide replacement access, which will be the topic of the public hearing.

“It’s for a moving company to make sure they have access for their trucks coming and going off the new road,” Haggerton said.

City officials had an-

right-of-ways along the old Frager Road and new Southcenter Parkway, a 1.4-mile extension between South 180th Street and South 200th Street.

“It’s an amendment to clean up access issues before we can open the road,” Mayor Jim Haggerton said during a phone interview Oct. 11.

The original agreement between the city and developer La Pianta LLC, run by the Segale family, “inadvertently failed to

ticipated a summer opening of the road. As long as the public hearing goes smoothly with no appeals, the road is expected to open later this fall.

The street extension is part of the city’s Tukwila South Development project expected to provide up to 25,000 jobs, 1,700 housing units and 10 million square feet of office and retail space.

The Segale family owns most of the property along the new street and plans to develop the area, which will have much-improved access to Interstate 5 with the new roadway.

Haggerton said city officials are also in discussion with the Segale family to determine a three-acre site along the new road for a future city fire station.

The Segale family agreed to donate land for a new fire station as part of the original agreement with the city.

“We’re looking south of 180th Street but there is no agreement yet on a specific parcel,” Haggerton said.
