What appears to be flaws in the initial construction of Bonney Lake’s Justice Center may be costing the city up to $10,000 per year in energy costs, according to city officials.

City Administrator Don Morrison said this week that a failure on the part of the contractors to adequately install vapor wrap, sealants and screens has led to heat loss and an infiltration of flies in the two-year-old building.

The cost of repairing the measures is estimated at $57,133 and Mayor Neil Johnson said he plans

City applying for grant to replace food bank

By Brian Beckley Staff Writer

When Stew Bowen stands in the warehouse section of the Bonney Lake Food Bank and stretches his arms out, they very nearly reach the walls on either side.

At the moment, the Food Bank is still riding a high from holiday donations - the end of the year is their busy season and it

helps carry them through the lean months of winter - but as the recession drags on, more come into the tiny Food Bank building.

“The need is going to go up,” Bowen said matter-of-factly. “And the building is way inadequate now.”

According to Bowen, when he took over

food bank FROM 1 as director of the food bank in September 2007 they were serving about 100 families per month.

Today, that number has grown to 700 each month.

“It’s a huge increase,” he said, speaking from his “office,” the bed of his pickup truck parked behind the building. “The capability to do what we do; this building just isn’t working.”

At an estimated 750 square feet of usable space, including storage and distribution - the Food Bank is cramped, at best. The staff has arranged and rearranged the inside to try to make the most of the space, but it’s just not enough for their needs. In fact, Bowen has some food stored off-site to save space in the building.

On top of that, the building itself, which is owned by the city, is old and in disrepair.

“It’s in very poor condition,” said city administrator Don Morrison.

“We’re not sure how much longer it’s going to stand.”

But Morrison, Bowen and the city are hopeful their needs will be heard at the state level as the city prepares an application for a Community Development Block Grant they how will provide money to replace the food bank building.

If their application is selected, the grant could mean up to $750,000 for the city.

“It would mean a new building,” Bowen said. “It’s really an awesome thing that they’re thinking that way.”

Community Development Block Grants are federal dollars that are distributed by the state. They must benefit moderate- to low-income residents.

Morrison said he was at a workshop late last year thinking the city could apply for block grant money to improve Cedarview Park, but learned park applications do not get much consideration, at which point his thoughts turned to the food bank and its aging building.

“It’s something we really need,” Morrison said.

Bowen agrees.

Though he is always very careful to thank the city and the residents for the space and is obviously appreciative of use of the building, it was designed as a temporary solution to house the food bank, back before the recession and the increase in need and numbers.

Last year, from Oct. 1, 2011 to Sept. 30, 2012, Bowen said the food bank ran 1.2 million pounds of food through its doors. And because the building has no loading dock or pallet-accessible doors, the process is very labor-intensive.

“Everything is done by hand,” Bowen said.

Mayor Neil Johnson said the food bank was important to the city and trying to find funding to help them was the right thing for the administration to do.

“I definitely think it’s important,” he said. “We’re always looking for a way to make an improvement there.”

The final decision by the state on where block grant money will go will be made later this year. And whether Bonney Lake receives some of it or not, Bowen said the food bank will continue to make the most of what they have to help as many people as they can.

Eventually, both Bowen and Johnson would like to see more regional solutions to this issue, with Bowen wanting to include a resource area to help the folks who have lost jobs improve their skills and find new work.

But for now, Bowen will keep doing what he does with the space he has and will continue to hope that one day soon, the Bonney Lake Food Bank will have a little more space and the ability to help just a few more people.

“Hunger is a community problem,” Bowen said.

Council prepares to select park district committees Staff Writer

The Bonney Lake City Council in early February will be choosing the pro and con committees for the city’s vote on a metropolitan parks district.

The council on Jan. 15 set a cut-off date of Jan. 18 to receive applications from parties interested in joining

one of the committees and is expected to make a decision on the final make-up of the committees Feb. 12.

As of Jan. 15, the city had received 10 applications with an even five for and five against.

“It’s a good selection of names,” Deputy Mayor Dan Swatman said Friday.

“There’s knowledgeable people on both sides.”

The job of the committees is to write a statement in favor of – or in opposition to – the upcoming ballot measure. The statement must be submitted to Pierce County Elections by March 11.

Pierce County will then provide each committee with the opposing side’s statement so they may submit a rebuttal by March 13.

The word limit on the original statement is 150 words with a limit of 75 on the rebuttal.

There is a limit of three official members for each committee and according to state law, the council selects the members of the committees.

A metropolitan parks district is a voter-approved district contiguous with the

city’s borders that would have the ability to levy a property tax to be used exclusively for park needs.

According to Swatman, the council will probably be focused on who can best represent the issue and not just a familiar name.

“It’s really based on their applications and who is

going to represent their side the best,” he said.

Swatman said because there are more applications than slots to fill, he expects the council members will nominate and then vote on names for each side.

“Whoever gets the most votes moves forward,” he said.

food debris, builds up on tooth surfaces and works its way under the gum line. Toxins released by the bacteria cause an inflammatory reaction that can lead to destruction of tissue and bone that anchor the teeth in place.

If the bacteria enter the blood stream, they can even affect the heart, liver and kidneys.

Caring for your pet’s teeth can prevent other health problems, saving you tons of money over the long term.

Did you know full-grown dogs have 42 teeth and full-grown cats have 30 teeth?

Before their adult teeth grow in, though, their baby teeth have to fall out. An oral issue that can arise is retained deciduous teeth; the baby teeth that do not fall out. This condition occurs in growing puppies and kittens and can lead to malpositioning of the permanent teeth. At Buckley Veterinary Hospital, our team routinely checks for this condition when adolescent dogs and cats are under anesthesia to be spayed or neutered and we will extract retained baby teeth if nec-

FEBRUARY IS NATIONAL PET DENTAL MONTH!

You need regular dental care and you brush your teeth every day — why wouldn’t your pets? Our team at Buckley Veterinary Hospital can provide the tools for at home care and can work with you to demonstrate and help you learn to brush your dog’s teeth and your cat’s teeth.

Did you know four out of five dogs over the age of 3 years have some sort of periodontal disease? Periodontal disease is the final stage in a process that begins with the development of plaque on your pet’s teeth. It can be caused by the buildup of plaque, so it’s important to go in for regular dental checkups and cleanings. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, “more than 85 percent of dogs and cats that are at least 4 years old have a condition in which bacteria attack the soft gum tissue,” causing this disease.

Pets that don’t receive regular dental care can lose their teeth over time — this can be terribly painful and cause underlying health and behavioral problems.

Your dog and cat are very good at hiding pain — you might never know that your pet has a serious dental problem until it’s very advanced. This is yet another reason it’s important to take your pet in for annual dental

Preventing periodontal disease by keeping your pet’s teeth and gums healthy is not just a job for your pet’s health providers. It is your job, too! While nothing can take the place of annual visits to the veterinarian for checkups and cleaning, ongoing follow-up oral care at home is just as important in controlling plaque and tartar formation. Proper food, chew toys and dental treats are items that can be used to supplement routine medical care.

Welcome back to Buckley Veterinary Hospital’s monthly pet care column. This month, we are highlighting your furry family member’s oral health. February is National Pet Dental Month and, as such, we would like to shed some light on the importance of oral healthcare and the steps you can take to provide the best lives for your pets. We have combined tips from a variety of veterinary associations and providers to help provide an understanding of optimal pet dental care.

For the sake of your pet’s health and comfort, periodontal disease is a threat that can’t be ignored.

Many of the clinical signs of the disease are hard to miss. Initial and latter signs that your dog or cat may be suffering from dental disease can include foul breath, discolored teeth, tartar build up, swollen, receding or bleeding gums and reluctance to eat or trouble eating. Late-stage periodontal disease can cause permanent damage, including loose teeth and tooth loss.

Here are great reasons why dental care is really important.

A pet with healthy teeth equals a pet with better breath.

Dental disease can actually lead to problems with your pet’s other organs. When plaque, a mixture of bacteria and

BL woman among three sentenced for fraud

Flaws FROM 1 to pursue any legal means he can to recoup the money.

“We have to hope someone will be accountable,” he said. “We can’t let taxpayers take a hit on this.”

“It’s been a problem ever since we got it,” Morrison said of the building.

Morrison said the first indication that something was amiss came in the winter of 2011 when staff noticed hundreds of dead flies lining the third floor of the building, which was unoccupied at the time.

“We couldn’t really figure out where they were getting in,” he said.

This winter, the same thing happened and the city began looking closer at the building, including using an infrared camera to look for heat loss.

The conclusion the city has come to is that the vapor wrap, which works as an insulation on the building, was not installed fully and properly. While it went up the walls, it was also supposed to go around the under the eaves of the building

false documents into loan files. Barney participated in submitting at least 60 fraudulent loan files. After Portmann was fired from PC Home Loans, Barney followed him to his three next employers.

Pierce Commercial Vice President and Residential Lending Manager Sonja Lightfoot, 53, of Tacoma was sentenced to one month in prison, four months of home confinement, 60 hours of community service and three years of supervised release for her role in the conspiracy.

Lightfoot joined the bank in 2002, before Portmann began his scheme. Between 2004 and 2009 it was Lightfoot’s job to lock the loans and sell them on the secondary market to other larger banks. Lightfoot knew that some of the loans contained false statements from borrowers but sold them anyway. When the fraud was discovered the loans reverted back to Pierce Commercial Bank. The risk that additional loans would revert back to the bank ultimately forced the closure of the bank.

“Mortgage fraud can turn the American Dream of homeownership into a nightmare for our communities. Law enforcement will not sit idly by when greed causes professionals to abandon their integrity and become fraudsters,” said Kenneth J. Hines, Special Agent in Charge of IRS Criminal Investigation in the Pacific Northwest.

From 2004 to 2008, Portmann closed almost $1 billion in loans and he earned over $1.7 million per year. A review of a sample of conventional and FHA loans revealed that Portmann and his staff closed over 300 loans with false and fraudulent information. More than half of these loans have defaulted or otherwise caused loss to Pierce Commercial Bank, secondary investors, and/or the FHA, resulting in an estimated loss of $10 million.

Portmann is scheduled for sentencing Jan. 28. At that time Judge Benjamin H. Settle will set a restitution amount, a share of which will be owed by all the defendants in the conspiracy.

and it appears that was not completed.

“It wasn’t sealed well,” Morrison said.

The improper sealing is causing the building, which was certified as an LEED “green” building, to lose heat, raising energy costs an estimated $10,000 per year.

Morrison said the city did not notice the deficiencies when it accepted the building and moved in April 2011 because of the time of year during which the move happened.

“These things didn’t come to light until several months after,” Morrison said.

The fix for the problem is expensive because the upper, red exterior wall panels around the building will have to be removed ad reinstalled after the wrap, sealant and screens, a process Morrison called “pretty labor intensive.”

Johnson said he was disappointed in the contractors and said he plans to push for legal action to rectify the situation, though he hopes the contractors will “do the right thing.”

“The problem is they didn’t do it right,” he said. “I won’t stop until we get something out of it.”

A Bonney Lake resident was among three Pierce County women who played important roles in a mortgage fraud scheme that crippled now defunct Pierce Commercial Bank were sentenced this past week in U.S. District Court in Tacoma, announced U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan.

All three of the women worked for years with scheme leader Shawn Portmann, whose fraudulent loans resulted in losses of more than $10 million. Portmann will be sentenced later this month. U.S. District Judge Benjamin H. Settle will determine restitution later this year.

Loan Underwriter Jeanette R. Salsi, 55, of Bonney Lake was sentenced to seven months in prison, four months of home confinement and three years of supervised release for conspiracy.

In 2004, Salsi followed Portmann from a different mortgage lender to PC Bank Home Loans (a subsidiary of Pierce Commercial Bank.) Portmann paid Salsi 60 percent more than she made at her prior employer and she became the primary underwriter of loans originated by Portmann. Salsi approved fraudulently generated loan applications despite the fact that they were filled with fraudulent documents.

Salsi knew the files contained false statements and phony documents regarding the applicant’s employment, debts, current residence and plans to reside in the home. Salsi’s sign-off meant the loans were approved and sold to other financial institutions and the FHA. After Portmann was fired at PC Bank Home Loans, Salsi followed him to two other mortgage companies.

Personal Assistant Alice Lorraine Barney, 54, of Graham was sentenced to two months in prison, four months of electronic home confinement, 100 hours of community service and three years of supervised release.

Barney was Portmann’s long-time assistant who created and inserted some of the

Wounded warriors deserve our best

By Rep. Christopher Hurst, D-31, Rep. Cathy Dahlquist, R-31, and David Fitzgerald, chief executive officer, Proliance Surgeons Our soldiers face a battle even after coming back from courageously fighting overseas. In a nation of 21.8 million veterans, over 6 percent live in poverty and a fourth live with a disability. In 2008, only 2.9 million veterans received compensation for servicerelated disabilities, even Christopher Hurst Cathy Dahlquist though 3.4 million veterans have a servicerelated disability. Many do not know how to effectively access their benefits to their fullest extents and 74 percent lack a bachelor’s degree or higher.

Venture capitalist challenges democracy A Chinese venture capitalist and political scientist in the January/ February edition of Foreign Affairs presents an intriguing perspective on the current state of U.S. democracy. The author, Eric X. Li, trumpets the advantages of the one-party rule by the Chinese Communist Party.

Democracy is not the only form of successful government, according to Li. There is a follow up article to Li’s in the same edition of Foreign Affairs, also written by a Chinese, which demolishes most of Li’s arguments.

Still, there is value in sharing Li’s comments about America. He holds up a mirror to our current political state of affairs. The reflection is instructive.

Here’s what he says about our government and economy from his Chinese perspective: “While China’s might grows, the West’s ills multiply: since winning the Cold War, the United States has, in one generation, allowed its middle class to disintegrate. Its infrastructure languishes in disrepair, and its politics, both electoral and legislative, have fallen captive to money and special interests. Its future generations

Politics in Focus Richard Elfers Columnist

will be so heavily indebted that a sustained decline in average living standards is all but certain.”

Is there any truth to what Li is saying? Yes. Since the 1980s tax cuts to the upper 20 percent of the U.S. population have greatly increased the wealth of the wealthiest, while middle-income workers’ incomes have stagnated. That trend increased with the tax cuts that just ended with the settling of phase one of the “fiscal cliff” crisis.

Our infrastructure does languish in disrepair because, although both political parties agree we need to be fixing our roads, bridges, water lines and sewer systems, neither side can agree as to where the money is going to come from: tax increases or spending cuts. Some kind of compromise

must be devised for the U.S. to deal with this issue.

In regard to special interests controlling our legislative process, all one has to do is to spend a little time studying what caused the 2008 economic meltdown to know that investment banks, to name one group, spent billions to successfully influence legislation in Congress to the detriment of average Americans and to our government.

I’m more optimistic than Li about our living standards. While they have declined since 2008, America will bounce back as it has historically done, again and again. One proof of this is the development of new technology that is tapping into new sources of natural gas and petroleum.

Another is the “reshoring” of outsourced jobs. Because of improved technology, many lost jobs are returning to the U.S. Li goes on to point out how flawed our democracy is compared to China’s Communist system: “Elections are seen as ends in themselves, not merely means to good governance. Instead of producing capable

Letters Smugness hurts gun debate I am constantly amazed at some people’s perception of what a “good” fix is for some of the current dilemmas we Americans face.

The obviously implied, “I am smarter than you” attitude that stands out in some recent letters about the gun debate in particular is a pretty good indication of why it is so difficult to have any kind of logical discussion about these types of issues. The recent article by Tim Personius in last week’s Letters (Enumclaw CourierHerald, Jan. 16; online in Bonney Lake) goes as far as to suggest that his mother is smarter than another person’s he happens to disagree with. It is this kind

Wednesday, January 23, 2013 • The BONNEY LAKE Courier-Herald • Page 7 of childish thinking that gets us nowhere along with clever statements like “guns don’t kill; people do.” In the end, people with bigger guns kill more people.

Isn’t this evident in our resolve to deter countries like Iran from obtaining nuclear bombs? Aren’t we infringing on their sovereign rights? Once again it’s amazing how so many like to tailor their “rights” in order to benefit themselves.

Here is a thought one might consider: The Constitution starts with, “We the People...” instead of “Me the Individual...” for a reason. One of the first few reasons it states as to why it was being written was to, “...insure domestic Tranquility...” So how do you balance that with the right to bear arms? Where do your rights stop and mine begin? These may be the questions that will need

elfers FROM A1 leaders, electoral politics have made it very difficult for good leaders to gain power, and in the few cases when they do, they are paralyzed by their own political and legal systems.”

It’s difficult for me to disagree with much of what Li says in this statement, but looking at the history of America, we have been in this place before. The late 19th century saw the rise of corrupt industrial and financial monopolies that controlled our government and abused our workers

to be asked as we move forward to a more mature country.

I am neither a gun owner nor wish for those with guns to give up any of their rights to own guns. In fact I have seriously contemplated becoming an owner.

What exactly though are considered “arms”? In the Bill of Rights written over a few hundred years ago, I was promised that right.

Did those authors mean to include any type of assault weapon that may be invented years down the road?

When these questions can be addressed without a person’s ego controlling their beliefs, then we may begin to come to some sort of compromise in order to protect all our rights as individuals and in turn as a society. Our government, whatever level that may be, was created by the people for the people. As con-

and the weak.

Eventually, through the leadership of presidents like Teddy Roosevelt, William Howard Taft and Woodrow Wilson, these “malefactors of great wealth” were tamed.

A free press also revealed the rot and corruption in our economy and government, purging and refining us.

Franklin D. Roosevelt helped the U.S. survive the Great Depression by adapting and changing our system so that a strong economy and a stable and growing middle class could be maintained. We still reap the benefits of those decisions.

Li acknowledges that while democracy will not disappear, China’s one-party sys-

troversial as some believe that to be, it is there fundamentally to direct our society to a peaceful way of living. Could you imagine the chaos on the roads through the city if there weren’t simple limitations put on the speed we travel?

Surely we all have the right to own a car, but even that comes with regulations that change from time to time. I don’t think for one moment that restricting certain types of weapons will lead to me losing my second amendment rights.

However, I am not a conspiracy theorist either.

Finally, I do not believe any change in how we make our guns or how we handle them will dramatically change the senseless tragedies that are occurring.

Obviously that would have to include changing the individuals who are responsible. In turn that would

require a dreaded “social program” since our families are not handling the task so well. It does seem possible though that any type of change might just spare one life down the road. And I think that’s worth discussing now, no matter how much smarter anyone else’s mother may be.

Duane Simurdak Enumclaw

A pricey travesty Is half the nation brain dead, blind and deaf? Does it seem right that people are on food stamps, welfare, living in their cars, losing their homes, lined up at the food banks and have this socalled “fiscal cliff ” problem and the person occupying our oval office goes on an $8 million dollar vacation with his family and entourage to Hawaii for two weeks?

Every time he turns around

tem works well for China based upon its history and culture. “The significance of China’s success, then, is not that China provides the world with an alternative but that it demonstrates that successful alternatives exist.”

Li is wrong about this. China’s leadership is in a race for their survival to keep their economy growing. If they don’t keep growing, they won’t be able to maintain power and they know it. They know corruption in China is endemic and without a free

he is running up the stairs to our Air Force One and flying off somewhere. That plane costs loads of money just to get it off the ground and he uses it like a kid who got a new sports car for graduation.

I wonder what it actually cost the taxpayers for all the exorbitant trips he has taken in the last four years.

How come no one seems to complain about the irresponsible things he does and says? I could write a book on this subject but people seem to turn a deaf ear and blind eye to the negative behavior of this person. Wake up, America!

Also, Congress just voted itself a pay raise. Why not give our troops a pay raise?

After all, they are putting their lives on the line for all of us yet they are getting defunded. Unconscionable.

Annette Woods Palmer

press and a voting public to root out the rot, China will not continue to be a viable alternative to democracy.

Li’s comments do act as a mirror to our society and government, but that reflection only reveals the present situation, it does not reflect the regenerative ability of our political and economic systems to change.

Those changes won’t be easy, but they will come with an engaged public and an active media to shine the light on the evil.

Qualifications lend silver lining to meet loss

By Brian Beckley

Bonney Lake Swim

Despite losing the meet, Bonney Lake swim coach Jay Paulson was very pleased with how his team performed Thursday against visiting Steilacoom.

“We had a great meet with some awesome races, but just couldn’t match Steilacoom’s depth with our injury-depleted team,” he said in an email.

But despite several best times and district qualifying times, including an intense meet-ending 400 freestyle relay race, the Sentinals proved too much for Bonney Lake, who fell 106-80.

There were highlights

for the Panthers, including Cameron Gehrke, who qualified for districts in the 100 butterfly, his second district qualifying time of the season. Gehrke also led a Panther sweep of the 200 individual medley, with Ryan Engledow finishing second and Josh Weaver coming in third.

Dom Leiggi also qualified for his second district event with a second-place finish in the 100 backstroke.

Paulson said the team’s sophomores also had a great day for the Panthers, Led by Tyler Tangen and Skylar Lvingston in the 200 freestyle.

“Both Skylar and Tyler will push each other as we close in on our league championship meet,” Paulson said.

In addition, Tangen dropped 10 seconds off his 500 freestyle time and is closing in on a district qualifying time.

“It’s easy to forget he’s only a sophomore,” Paulson said.

Bonney Lake’s trio of divers also had a good day, finishing second, third and fourth. Scott Jackson led the Panther divers, followed by Gary Flygare and rookie Brice Roberts, whose inward 1 1/2 notched the highest single-dive score of

Two slim victories even out the Spartans’ record

By Daniel Nash Staff Writer

SHS Boys Basketball

Sumner’s boys basketball team brought a losing conference record to even last week, taking a 63-55 win against the Franklin Pierce Cardinals Jan. 15, and a 48-44 victory over the Steilacoom Sentinels Friday night. The Spartans now have a 5-5 record in South Puget Sound League 2A, and a 9-6 record overall.

In the Cardinals game, the Spartans took their lead early on, going 18-17, 18-13 and 13-9 in the first three quarters. The Cardinals rallied in the final quarter and earned 16 points to their

opponents’ 14, but the last ditch effort wasn’t enough to cover the gap.

Franklin Pierce’s Michael Dupree and Isaiah SutherlanBallard were the shooting stars of the night, making 17 and 16 points respectively.

However, their third-best shooter topped out at six, and the most common point count per player was 3.

Spartan Riley Bruil scored 14 points, but the most common score from individual Spartans was eight, strengthening its scoring overall.

In the Sentinels game, the

Spartans kept a tight onepoint lead in the first half — going 7-7 in the first quarter and 19-18 in the second — and almost seemed as if they would lose their lead in an abysmal 8-15 third quarter. A fourth quarter surge by Sumner garnered 14-4 points and secured an overall four point lead over the Sentinels.

The Spartans are now firmly in the middle of the SPSL 2A standings, but the team has five more conference games before the end of the regular season.

The team played Fife Tuesday, after press time.

They play top-ranked Clover Park on Friday.

The meet ended with a spectacular race in the 400 freestyle relay, with Bonney Lake’s Leiggi, Weaver, Engledow and Gehrke posting a district qualifying time. Steilacoom went out to an early lead in the race, but the Panther pulled ahead in the second leg and held on to the lead until the final 50 yards, when Steilacoom’s anchor leg was able to get a slight lead and touched-out the Panthers at the end.

60-18 game against the Steilacoom Sentinels left little doubt who would come out the victor. The Spartans maintained devastating leads in every quarter, going 13-4, 17-4, 21-5 and 9-5.

Spartan post Jamie Lange alone racked up 21 points for Sumner, followed by guard Anna Hurd with 12.

It’s good to be the Spartans. Sumner High School’s girls basketball team took two victories against Franklin Pierce and Steilacoom last week, further securing their winning conference record.

As of press time, the Spartans are 9-1 in South Puget Sound League 2A, second only to the 10-0 White River Hornets.

They exceed their next best rivals, Franklin Pierce and Washington High, by four wins. The Spartans played Fife, a team that has gone

4-6 this season, Tuesday after press time.

The Spartans played Franklin Pierce at home Jan.15 and earned a 59-43 victory. Sumner trailed the Cardinals by a point in the first half, going 8-10 and 14-13 in the first and second quarters. A stunning 22-8 third quarter made up the difference and then some, turning the tide toward a wide lead; a 15-12 fourth quarter merely iced the cake.

First he said he had gotten into an argument with a friend and they had fired shots at each other; then he said he was just at home with his cat when an unknown assailant fired at him, prompting him to fire his shotgun in self defense.

He advised he had a medical marijuana grow op in his home, and that he had all the proper paperwork. Backup officers discovered spent shotgun shell casings by the rear door of the man’s home. A K9 unit arrived for a search of the house.

There was a double barrel shotgun on top of a bar in the basement next to a nearly empty bottle of whiskey. More spent shotgun shells were found inside, but there was no evidence of another firearm being discharged. The medical marijuana paperwork was verified, and the man was transported to Fife jail where he was booked for unlawfully discharging a firearm within city limits. The spent shells were placed into evidence, and the incident was recommended for forwarding to the prosecutor.

The commission recommended instituting a series of programs that tailored the programs around the needs of veterans, such as setting up a web portal through which each veteran could access the information relevant to them. The commission also suggested that the government document the fluidity of information between the Department of Defense and the Department of Veteran Affairs, aiming to reduce bottlenecks in the benefits system. We greatly need improvements like these. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals last year demanded that the Department of Veterans Affairs overhaul its programs dealing with mental health, noting that it took an average of four years to supply full mental health benefits to veterans.

So, what can we do to help? On the treatment side of things, not all veterans need the same, standardized care. Some problems cannot be fixed with a one-size-fitsall approach and there is a need to modify our system so that we may fit veterans with an approach that works for them.

There are a number of grassroots programs that are working effectively. Heartbeat…

Washington

is just one example of how many largelyunderutilized ideas are out there that can be used to help our veterans recover from their injuries. Heartbeat aims its programs, consisting of horseback riding therapy and scuba-diving therapy, at helping warriors exercise and train parts of their bodies injured during the war. Out-of-the box, grassroots programs like these attempt to fill the voids in our inadequate governmental programs for veterans.

A famous general in the U.S. military, George Washington, once said, “the willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional to how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation.”

Let us run our government by those words and support programs such as Heartbeat.

Christopher Hurst, Independent Democrat, is the current chairman of the House Public Safety Committee and will chair the Government Accountability and Oversight Committee in January. He has served in the Legislature for 10 years. Cathy Dahlquist, R-Enumclaw, will serve as the ranking Republican on the House Education Committee. She is currently serving her second term in the Legislature.

suicides occur each day and more than 116 active duty soldiers this year. These statistics reveal a grim reality. In the past year there have been more suicide deaths by soldiers than those dying in combat in Afghanistan.

Tricare, the healthcare program of the United States military that covers active and retired service members and their dependents, is facing rising costs in the face of fairly stagnant payments and funding that has not kept up with the rising cost of healthcare. The Department of Defense’s healthcare costs have risen from $19 billion in 2001 to more than $49 billion for the next fiscal year. Meanwhile, 2012’s price range for Tricare Prime plans, which range from $460 to $520, could rise to $893 to $2,048.

Former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates warned, “the Tri-Care expenses are eating up the Pentagon budget.” This burden will likely be shifted onto our veterans and, while these costs are involved with the separate ordeal of rising overall healthcare costs, it is out of step with our commitment to our veterans.

The United States takes great pride in

its values of freedom and liberty and we consistently celebrate and honor our military and those who fight for it. While we do not question our government’s intent to honor our soldiers, our systems with which we repay our heroes are often inadequate.

Though a large variety of government programs no doubt help our nation’s veterans, we can do better. The reality is a sea of bureaucracy and a befuddling number of agencies set on different tasks.

Many wounded warriors are not offered adequate care or services. Thousands wait months with serious mental and physical disabilities. America needs to try new, innovative programs for healthcare to help our veterans and to vastly overhaul the military healthcare system that demands improvements.

We can fix our veterans’ benefits system.

There are a number of creative ideas out there for new and inventive ways to help get the system back into shape, both on the administration side and on the treatment side. In 2007, The President’s Commission on Care for America’s Wounded Warriors outlined a number of suggestions for improving the Department of Veteran’s Affairs. These recommendations include modernizing and simplifying the disability process and providing incentives to veter-
