Ex-police officers issue 2 new claims against the city

Pointing the way to graduation

ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com

Redmond Police Department (RPD) former officer Marcella Fogg and onetime lieutenant/officer Brent Howard have filed claims of $1 million each against the City of Redmond, RPD and several members of the police force.

Fogg, 30, recently filed a $3 million claim against the city for ongoing harassment and retaliation since posing as a senior in a drugs investigation at Redmond High School (RHS) in 2010.

The new claim, which she filed on May 31, cites that officer (now lieutenant) and former friend Todd Bowman purposely inflicted emotional distress upon Fogg and defamed, libeled and slandered her character, according to court documents obtained by the Redmond Reporter through a public records request.

Bowman has seen the claim and told the Reporter on Wednesday that “anybody [ more CLAIMS page 12 ]

The Redmond Police Department (RPD) is one of 10 agencies that make up a recently launched regional team that was formed to investigate officer-involved shootings and other major incidents in King County.

Jim Bove, spokesperson for the RPD, said the way the new team — King County Investigative Response Team (KCIRT) — works is if a King County agency has a serious event, they can request investigators from KCIRT — who will investigate and likely won’t know the people involved.

“KCIRT was designed to assure transparent and unbiased investigations after serious incidents, specifically officer-involved shootings,” Bove said.

He said this doesn’t change anything for Redmond because the few times the city has had an officer-involved shooting, RPD always asked another agency to investigate. For example, in the last serious incident in Redmond a few years ago, the department had the King County Sheriff ’s Office investigate.

In addition to officerinvolved shootings, other incidents in which KCIRT can be utilized include

intentional and accidental use of any other dangerous or deadly weapon, assaults on law enforcement officers or other law enforcement employees, fatal or serious injuries to a subject in police custody and vehicular collisions involving police gunfire directed at a suspect or a suspect vehicle.

KCIRT was activated on June 1 after about two years of development.

According to the KCIRT model policy — which was created by the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs (WASPC) and approved in November 2011 — the purpose of the team is to provide law enforcement with “guidance on how to structure criminal investigations into officer involved critical incidents that are transparent and fair, and instill the public’s confidence.”

The draft continues, stating that, “maintaining the public’s confidence in the investigation processes of officer-involved critical incidents is important for the long-term relationships of an agency and its community. The goal of this model policy is to assist in that effort.”

KCIRT is available to any law enforcement agency in King County that requests the services of the team

and in addition to RPD, the remaining agencies of KCIRT are Washington State Patrol, King County Sheriff ’s Office the Bellevue, Kirkland, Issaquah, Bothell, Mercer, Snoqualmie and Black Diamond police departments.

Maj. Mike Johnson of the Bellevue police — the agency that took the lead in forming KCIRT — will be in charge of the new unit.

He said the formation of this task force came as more research in the last few years pointed to this model of multi-jurisdictional collaboration as a best practice. South King County has had such a model in place for officerinvolved shooting incidents for a few years and Snohomish County has had a program for 20 years.

Johnson said this part of King County is just now forming its multi-jurisdictional team now because doing so is always a bit complicated and takes time to put together.

“The benefit (of having multiple agencies working on an investigation) is directly related to our ability to combine the most talented investigators and the best equipment/techniques from the many capable detectives throughout the county,” Johnson said.

Departing owners put their hearts into Soulfood experience Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com

At the end of this month, Clint McCune and Sara Pelfrey will be stepping down as owners of Soulfood Books in Redmond.

After seven years of running the downtown gathering spot, located at 15748 Redmond Way, they will be handing their keys over to Kevin Oaks and Anita Ensley, two longtime members of the Soulfood community.

Oaks was one of Soulfood’s first customers when they opened all those years ago and Ensley has worked for them in the past.

“It’s for sure staying in the family,” McCune said.

Because Oaks and Ensley have this history with Soulfood, McCune said they know the coffee shop will continue with the same heart. He said the incoming owners — or stewards, as they feel the entire community owns Soulfood — hold an integrity, spark and passion for life close to their hearts and that is what Soulfood is about.

McCune and Pelfrey let the community know about a year ago that they were looking for someone to take over their coffee shop.

After a “year of discovery” they announced Oaks and Ensley as the new stewards on May 7 at Soulfood’s seventh anniversary event.

Police Blotter The police blotter feature is both a description of a small selection of police incidents and a statistical roundup of all calls to the Redmond Police Department that are dispatched to on-duty police officers.

The Redmond Reporter Police Blotter is not intended to be representative of all police calls originating in Redmond, which gets more than 500 calls (emergency and non-emergency) per week.

Thursday, June 20 Vehicle prowl: Officers responded to a car prowl at 12:04 a.m. from the 14100 block of Northeast 62nd Street in Grass Lawn.

Wednesday, June 19 Assault: Redmond police arrested a man in the 2500 block of 152nd Avenue Northeast in Overlake at 8:46 p.m. for fourth-degree domestic violence assault.

Vehicle prowl: Redmond police took a report of a car prowl at 12:41 p.m. from the 21700 block of Northeast Novelty Road.

Theft: At 9:19 a.m., Redmond police responded to theft of a front license plate from the 10100 block of 176th Avenue Northeast on Education Hill.

Seven-year Soulfood Books owners Clint McCune and Sara Pelfrey will hand over their keys to new proprietors at the end of June. Courtesy photo Craig Larsen, who has worked at Soulfood for six years and is now a manager, said the news of the upcoming change has been met with excitement among the employees. He described Soulfood as an “anomaly” because there are no feelings of anxiety, nervousness or worry that may come when a business changes owners. Larsen added that no employees are leaving, either.

“Everyone’s staying,” he said. “I’m here till my key doesn’t work. I love this place.”

Redmond City Council member John Stilin, who holds regular hours at Soulfood every Tuesday from 3-4 p.m. as an opportunity for community members to meet with him and ask any questions they may have about the happenings at the

city, also loves the coffee shop. He said in the seven years that they have been running Soulfood, McCune and Pelfrey have created a true community gathering spot for people of all ages and all walks of life, who intersect with each other.

Stilin said there is a magical feel to Soulfood and when people go in for the first time, they say, “Wow, this is really a nice place.”

Before McCune and Pelfrey step down, they will hold a Last Waltz party from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on June 30 at Soulfood.

“Our whole goal is to really celebrate this exciting thing and thank the community,” Pelfrey said.

McCune added that it is their last chance as owners to make the community a cup of coffee.

After that, Soulfood will

Graffiti: At 12:29 p.m., Redmond police investigated graffiti at a park in the 8400 block of 161st Avenue Northeast downtown. There was no suspect information.

Burglary: Redmond police responded to a report of a burglary at 8:04 p.m. from a residence in the 7500 block of West Lake Sammamish Parkway in Grass Lawn.

Shoplifting: At 5:03 p.m., two females were arrested in the 17600 block of Union Hill Road downtown for shoplifting.

Evidence: At 10:54 a.m., found property from the 17200 block of Avondale Way downtown was booked into evidence for safekeeping.

Vehicle prowls: Officers responded to three vehicle prowl reports in the 6 a.m. hour from Education Hill. A GPS and camera equipment were among the items taken.

Vehicle prowl: At 3:40 a.m., Redmond police responded to a reported vehicle prowl from the 15800 block of Northeast 105th Street on Education Hill.

be closed from July 1-4 for inventory and some maintenance in preparation for the transition. Larsen added that with the holiday, this week is usually one of their slower weeks of the year.

Customers shouldn’t expect much to change when Soulfood reopens on July 5 under its new stewardship as most changes will be behind the scenes, but McCune and Pelfrey acknowledged that some things will probably be different.

“There’ll be some surprises,” Pelfrey said.

She and McCune have made many connections in the local artist community through Soulfood, and after this, they will be staying on as consultants until the end of the year to bridge those connections between the artists and Oaks and Ensley to make sure the transi-

tion will be as smooth as possible.

In addition, their postSoulfood life will include some of the same things they have been doing at the coffee shop — working with local artists and organizations and being creative together — but on a larger scale and bringing that to the surrounding Redmond community.

McCune is also releasing an album in conjunction with “Brother,” a short film he stars in — which was directed by Adam Chambers,

an independent filmmaker from Bothell.

When asked what else she will be up to now that she will no longer be running Soulfood, Pelfrey said, sleep, with a laugh. She and McCune acknowledged that as two non-morning people, running a coffee shop — especially in the Pacific Northwest where people take their coffee seriously — was not easy. But they did it with a smile.

“To own a business, you’ve got to love it,” McCune said.

Compromising on politics without compromising our children’s future A fragile local economy and lack of improvement in our state’s education system were the status quo when a bipartisan group established a governing coalition in the Washington state Senate this past December.

After eight years of single-party control of the state Senate, House of Representatives and governor’s office the status quo wasn’t fulfilling Washington residents’ requests for state government to adequately respond to their concerns.

In my three years in the Senate, I’ve heard repeated calls for lawmakers to be more responsible and efficient with tax dollars; seen balance sheets showing that businesses are struggling to stay open or add jobs due to a burdensome business climate; and received an order from our state’s Supreme Court for the Legislature to improve funding and policies for Washington’s K-12 education system.

The response to those requests by leaders in the House of Representatives and the governor?

Propose raising billions of dollars in additional taxes without any increased accountability for state government, break the Legislature’s earlier promises by attempting to make temporary taxes permanent, and use our childrens’ education — our No. 1 constitutional duty — as leverage to raise these taxes, of which less than half the proceeds would be used to increase education funding.

As a political moderate trying to create a budget that everyone hates the least, this entire legislative session has been about compromise. I’ve spent as much time building consensus with Democrats in the House of Representatives as I have with Republicans and Democrats in the Majority Coalition Caucus.

Having developed “the most open and inSen. Andy Hill

clusive way that a budget has ever been built,” according to my Democratic minority caucus counterpart in the Senate, I’ve been working non-stop to compromise.

The Washington residents I talk to say that’s what they want — for their elected officials to be willing to move the state government forward based on best practices and protect the services they care about without regard for partisan ideology.

However, there is an area where I am not willing to compromise: our children’s education, which strongly influences their and society’s future. In both budgets crafted and passed by the Senate, we allocated an additional $1.5 billion for K-12 education during the next budget cycle.

When we did this the response from stakeholders with vested interest in the status quo was to decry it for not being enough.

However, upon realization by leaders in the House of Representatives that there were not enough votes to pass a massive tax increase, they drastically lowered overall spending.

What concerns me most and should concern parents statewide is that more than 75 percent of those spending reductions came from their overall funding for K-12 education, placing it well below the Senate’s

threshold.

Additionally, our bipartisan plan targets funding toward areas of greatest need, including closing the increasing “opportunity gap” for minority children from low-income families and prioritizing evidence-based programs that have been proven effective.

The partisan House plan simply spreads more money throughout the system without regard for the actual outcomes.

We need to come to a resolution that fits the priorities of Washington residents, and soon; by the time you are reading this we very well may have done so. That is because despite partisan rhetoric intended to incite rather than unite, the Republican and Democratic officials you have elected continue to work to build consensus toward a successful path forward that meets the needs of our state.

Sen. Andy Hill represents the 45th Legislative District, which includes Redmond, Kirkland, Woodinville, Sammamish and Duvall. He serves as chairman of the Senate Ways and Means Committee and is a member of the Senate Early Learning and K-12 Education Committee.

Monster-truck driver doubles as a ‘crazy’ pork-chop thrower I had a funny but somewhat unsettling experience while I was shopping at Redmond Town Center on June 15.

My wife and I were waiting for my daughter to get done shopping at one of the stores. I had pulled over and put my hazards on to let people know to go ahead and pass me. Everyone had no problem getting through, except for this one big monster truck. He was obviously quite upset with me and slowed down and, I kid you not, threw a boneless pork chop through his window into my car window and hit me in the cheek.

There is so much sadness that is reported, I thought you might get a kick out of reporting this in your paper for all to read.

The situation didn’t escalate accept for a few words, but as I thought about it over the weekend, I just really think someone should know there is a crazy man out there armed with boneless pork chops with quite sticky yet tasty barbecue sauce.

Downtown senior shuttle is a great ‘green’ idea Thank you for your article on proposed shuttle service for seniors and others in Redmond. This is a

wonderful “green” idea and a great way to reduce traffic in town for those of us who are not walking or bike riding so well anymore. I am confident that good decisions will be made and that the service will be fully wheelchair accessible for those who need it.

Helping school children grieve: Training our teachers How do children grieve? How do schools deal with grieving children?

Teachers in Washington state public schools are not required to be trained to deal with children who have suffered a loss. Our teachers are also not trained to in-

struct the schoolmates of the child that suffered a loss on how to act toward that child.

Where does this leave children who are grieving? Where does this leave the teachers?

A large risk factor for juveniles becoming delinquent is the loss of a parent.

The American Federation of Teachers offers grief training presentations that should be a minimum requirement for all administrators and teachers in Washington state.

It is imperative that we set a precedent in Washington state, for other states to follow, in training our school teachers how to approach students whom have suffered a loss.

The anticlimactic end: Letter from a graduating senior

If you are a graduating high school senior like me — congratulations! You’re probably relieved and excited like I am to have made it to the end of a long and drawn-out year of studying, stress and senioritis. The year has come to a close and I’m looking forward to a hopefully relaxing summer before it’s back to school again. Yet when I attempt

to sum up my year in just a single phrase, only one disappointing word comes to mind: anticlimactic.

When I asked previous graduates about their last year of high school, all I get are variations on the same three words: “college is better.” My parents barely seem to remember their last year of high school and teachers are virtually silent about the perhaps strategically forgotten time in their lives. What exactly is it about this year that begs to be remembered yet wants to be so forgettable?

Seven years of elementary school, two years of

middle school, four years of high school: My entire education seemed to have been aiming me for the one moment of glory as I glided across the stage, snatched my diploma and exited the room, proceeding to bask in the freedom of the real world.

Making it to high school was nearly as uneventful as a typical family dinner-table conversation. “So how was your day?” “Good.” “What did you do?” “The usual.”

My 16th birthday merited a meal out at a restaurant, and getting my driver’s license awarded me the exciting opportunity to pick

my little brother up from a party on a Friday night that I spent at home by myself.

Perhaps I’m unique in my apathy for what I feel are rather self-indulgent milestones over-emphasized by our culture, and perhaps the majority of high school seniors, like many of my friends, have thoroughly enjoyed their rites of passage. I, however, am perfectly content with admitting that for me, there are far more important memories to hold on to.

When I look back on my

last year of high school, I probably won’t remember getting accepted to colleges, or dancing at my senior prom or even presenting my senior project at the end of the year. Some of those memories are already fading. But I will remember how much coffee I drank every day. I’ll remember how little work I finished in my study hall sitting next to two of my closest friends, and I’ll remember how excited I was to finally get to eat off campus for lunch.

Senior year has been the

best year of my life so far — not because I’ve made it to the top of the high school food chain, or because my freedom from grade school is finally in sight, but because I’ve been more appreciative of my time spent with friends and family.

Here’s to 60 more years of forgetting old traditions, and making our own!

...HEALTHY LIVING

In the fight against obesity, even framing the right message can be challenging Health Scene

TIMI GUSTAFSON R.D.

We think the best way to care for our neighbors is to be in the neighborhood.

As obesity rates continue to rise rapidly in the United States and many other countries, health experts wonder how to convey more effectively the seriousness of the crisis to the public. While many seem to be resigned to the fact that the world population is getting heavier, the growing numbers of obese people are burdening healthcare systems in unprecedented ways.

Societies around the world are woefully unprepared for the changing realities and lack the resources to meet the coming challenges.

Insurers and healthcare providers warn that the additional costs of treating millions upon millions of overweight patients are unsustainable.

Yet, despite the flood of obesity-related health messages in recent years, it has been proven difficult to create a sense of urgency in the public’s perception of the issue.

One study found that obesity-related media campaigns can be per-

ceived as motivating but also as discouraging and even stigmatizing.

When participants in this study were asked to view obesity awareness programs from the U.S., England and Australia and rate them based on their responses, most favored positive messages that recommended making small improvements over negative ones that laid blame squarely on the lack of personal responsibility.

But not everyone agrees with taking a soft approach. “A shock of recognition” is in order because we “need to understand that obesity is a national health problem, one that causes lethal diseases, shortens lives and contributes substantially to rising health care costs,” warns Dr. Daniel Callahan, a bioethicist and cofounder of the Hastings Center, a think tank specializing in bioethics in the public interest.

A report he authored recently, titled “Obesity: Chasing an Elusive Epidemic,” has quickly evoked fierce protests from obesity acceptance and anti-discrimination advocates, mainly because of his suggestion that social stigmatization and shaming could be a useful tool in the fight against the obesity epi-

demic. Similar measures, he points out, have been highly successful during the anti-smoking campaigns a few decades ago.

Trying to get the obesity crisis under control has turned out to be “the most difficult and elusive health problem this country has ever encountered,” Callahan laments. Addressing it effectively requires profound changes in our personal behavior but also in the ways we allow food and beverage commerce to operate.

The respective industries spend billions of dollars on marketing less-thanhealthy products, often aimed at children, and on lobbying to prevent much needed regulations from being enacted.

There are limits to how much government can do to influence people’s behavior. But government can impose regulations and taxes to coerce both industry and consumers into making changes that can produce desirable results over time.

And here we can indeed take cues from the anti-smoking crusades.

For instance, we don’t allow smoking in most public areas and means of transportation any more. We certainly don’t allow cigarettes to be sold to minors. We no longer have cigarette advertisements on television.

Placing warning signs and sometimes deterring images on cigarette packages is mandatory. High taxes on tobacco products have made them less affordable. Considering how dramatically smoking has declined in this country, these measures have turned out largely successful.

Generalized stiffness in the muscles and joints of the lower body is one of the main causes of posture breakdown. In a

“Stand up straight!” Mom was right. Posture, or how the body is aligned, is important whether you’re sitting, standing and also when you’re moving.

We’ve all heard about maintaining good body mechanics while lifting or carrying something heavy in order to move more efficiently and avoid stress on any one part of the body. This “dynamic posture” becomes just as important when you’re engaged in sports.

Without proper posture, you compromise your efficiency and also increase your risk of injury.

Let’s consider golf and running. One of the most common problems most golfers face is the loss of posture during the swing. Loss of posture is referred to as any significant alteration from the correctly aligned initial position of the body. If the angles of the body change due to the loss of posture, the player has to rely on his hand action to square the clubface at impact. This creates a timing-driven swing, which results in missed hits and inconsistent play.

In running, the loss of posture commonly occurs during the stance phase (when the foot hits the ground). Here, it affects the angles of the ankle, knee and hip, causing the runner to expend more energy and become less efficient.

golfer, lack of flexibility may alter the set up posture when addressing the ball and force the player to adjust his spinal posture through the golf swing.

What you often see in these players is a rise in the torso and a forward movement of the hips toward the golf ball during the downswing. Players often complain of their arms and hands feeling “stuck” or

core will cause the golf player to lose lower body stability in the backswing and also compromise power and control in the downswing. Core muscles also allow for proper alignment during the stance phase in running. Injured runners often have hip abductor, hip flexion and hip external rotation weakness, which alters their dynamic alignment and generates weaker propulsion

Regional and local approach key for economic development

CITY OF REDMOND EARNS AWARDS

The Washington State Department of Commerce has awarded the City of Redmond a Judge’s Merit Award in the Governor’s Smart Communities Awards program for the city’s Digital Planning and Development Suite.

This is the second award for the Digital Planning and Development Suite. The suite consists of Redmond’s digital Comprehensive Plan, E-Zoning Code and

tightrope to walk,” Fuller acknowledged.

Local politics — especially when it involves things such as taxes, land use and zoning — are also obstacles to overcome in regional planning.

Working as a region is important in trying to recruit large companies that are relocating or want to open a new location. Fuller said this is because when an area has too many communities asking for the same thing, it makes it easier to say no. But if a region presents one unified voice, a company is more likely to consider it seriously.

Redmond City Council President Pat Vache said this was one of the reasons On-

eRedmond, a private-public partnership for economic and community development, was formed. In the past, various groups would approach potential sponsors, asking for funding in the name of economic development. Vache said with so many groups asking for something, it was easy for these potential sponsors to say no. Creating one voice for Redmond’s economic development simplified things for all involved.

Thinking locally is more effective when it comes to retention and expansion of local businesses, Fuller said. She said the intellectual capital is already there and so you want to work to keep it there.

When it comes to a community’s economic development, it’s important to think regionally as well as locally.

This was the message Martha Fuller conveyed to the audience at OneRedmond’s investors’ luncheon on Wednesday.

With experience that includes serving as director of planning and economic development and director of finance for the City of St. Paul in Minnesota and holding CFO and vice president positions at a number of professional sports teams, including the Seattle Seahawks and Sounders FC, Fuller has learned a lot of lessons along the way about what works and what doesn’t.

She said there are times when thinking regionally can be beneficial and when thinking locally is the way to go.

Fuller said the cities and communities that make up a region can be diverse and not everyone will have everything. For example, one city may contain a number of job centers, another may be more rural and another one may be mostly residential, which is why a regional approach may work better.

It is important to take a regional approach when planning for things such as infrastructure, transportation, utilities, higher education and telecommunications. Fuller said thinking regionally for emergency management is also key. “(Natural disasters) don’t stop at city limits,” she explained.

But thinking regionally is much easier said than done, Fuller told the group at Matts’ Rotisserie & Oyster Lounge in Redmond Town Center.

Regional economic development won’t work when there is a lack of trust among the parties involved. She said this is because people will think twice about committing to something if they don’t feel others have their best interests in mind. It is also difficult when the regional entities don’t have the same goals as a community.

can say anything. It’s not factual,” adding that he didn’t want to talk specifics on an ongoing lawsuit.

Fogg’s latest claim states that Bowman spread rumors to other members of the police force about Fogg engaging in a relationship with a minor during and after her undercover work and having a relationship with another man while she and her husband were going through a divorce.

According to court documents, Bowman also told a colleague that Fogg allegedly informed him that she wasn’t sure who fathered her baby back in March of 2012. Fogg and her husband participated in a DNA test, “which conclusively has proven that the father of her baby is indeed her husband,” the documents state.

Fogg’s claim adds that her relationship with Bowman changed after she informed an outside attorney for Redmond about a former Redmond officer’s two-year sexual relationship with an 11- or 12-year-old child overseas.

Bowman told Fogg that she “had a duty to report” the information, documents state.

According to Fogg’s Equal Employ-

ment Opportunity Commission claim, which her attorney Bob Kim provided to the Reporter, she was recently terminated from the RPD. In Howard’s claim, which was filed on May 24, court documents note that he suffered “emotional distress and personal upheaval” after resigning from his job in lieu of termination, which stemmed from an alleged “unreported traffic collision” with Howard brushing the side mirror of his patrol car at an apartment complex. Kim, also Howard’s attorney, said that his client also once left the back gate down on a police SUV and it was damaged.

Howard, 50, learned that he was under an internal affairs investigation, which was never completed. He learned that he would be fired and asked an officer about his Loudermill rights, his entitlement to due process when faced with allegations of misconduct. He was encouraged to resign and was told that a Loudermill hearing could be emotionally taxing and he would have a better chance of finding another job if he resigned, according to court documents. Officer Sandra English and Chief Ronald Gibson are named in Howard’s claim.

Kim said that Howard was at first an RPD lieutenant for 14 or 15 years, left to work in security at Microsoft for two to three years and then returned to the RPD as an officer until the fall of 2012.

“He’s trying to find himself again. It’s been hell on him,” Kim said. “I think he’ll get back on his feet. There’s some (job) opportunities.”

When asked for a comment about the two claims, City of Redmond chief policy adviser and communications and marketing administrator Jeri Rowe-Curtis said they are not able to provide an interview or commentary at this moment out of respect for the litigation and personnel processes and persons involved.

• RPD officer Scott Bruton has withdrawn the $1 million claim he filed against the City of Redmond on April 24, said Kim, who is Bruton’s attorney, as well. According to court documents, Bruton experienced “severe emotional distress” and “humiliation” as a result of the “sexual harassment, discrimination, disparate treatment and hostile work environment” he has been subjected to since May 2009.

Ralliers call on legislators to pass budget, fund education

Debadutta Dash, with theWashington State IndiaTrade Relations Action Committee, passionately declares that Democrats and Republicans should work together to pass a budget at a Kirkland rally onWednesday. RAECHEL DAWSON, Kirkland Reporter from non-partisan committee staff.)

The two senators have significant influence on the budget process, as Hill is the chair of the Senate Ways and Means Committee and Tom is the leader for the Senate Majority Coalition Caucus.

The Legislature is in the midst of a second special session due to a lack of compromise, and rally-goers believe Republican leaders in the Senate have held the budget “hostage” in an attempt to pass policy bills.

“It’s already starting to affect us because we’re at the end of the school year and our principals are trying to plan for next year,” said Miller, who is also a social studies teacher in the Bellevue School District. “They don’t know if they’re going to be able to fill all of their positions. This is not a budget issue, this is the state Republican senators trying to force policy down everyone’s throat in the second special session.”

But Hill said in a statement on Thursday the Legislature

has all of the resources they need to pass a budget. And in just the past week have they had $480 million in additional money become available, which is “more than enough to bridge the gap between the Senate and House of Representatives.”

“My colleague Senate Majority Leader Rodney Tom has made it explicitly clear that a suite of reform bills have been removed from negotiations in order to get leadership from the House of Representatives to commit to passing a budget,” Hill said. “There is absolutely no reason that we cannot and should not finish our work quickly and I’m continuing to have comprehensive negotiations with the Governor and House of Representatives.”

Hill said a government shutdown is “completely out

ers think many state-funded programs should simply be shut down.

“Taxes are already too high,” said Bob Abbot. “Spending is out of control. Many programs in the state should simply be abandoned and shut down.”

Dale Fonk said Hill is doing a fabulous job as leader of the Ways and Means Committee and thinks “these folks” want more money on top of the proposed $1 billion to education the Senate budget proposal calls for.

“The claim about holding the budget hostage could be applied equally to the Governor’s office or the House,” Fonk said. “They’re all digging in their heels and so you can’t point your finger at any one of them and say they’re holding the budget hostage any more

than any of the others.”

Some rally attendees criticized both legislators.

Kirkland resident Vicki Neumeier, who works as a Seattle nurse, said Hill and Tom are putting tax breaks for special interests ahead of funding health care for part-time state employees, which include part-time nurses, she adds.

“Now is not the time to put education against health care and other social services,” she said. “I see every day what happens when people lose access to health care. Too often do patients wait too long for the care they need and instead things that could easily be fixed by preventative care, turns into a life threatening tumor, millions of dollars, medical bills, months of treatment and even death.”

Nearly 300 people and members of political action committees chanted “Courage for kids” and “Kids and families first” at a rally on Wednesday evening to let legislators know they want a budget passed — and one that reflects amply funded education, as well.

Meanwhile, Washington state Sen. Andy Hill supporters attempted to block protests with high-held picket signs on the sidewalk near the rally at Heritage Park in Kirkland.

The rally, organized by Our Economic Future coalition, was to call on Sen. Hill (R-45, Redmond) and Sen. Rodney Tom (D-48, Medina) to pass a state budget before the inaction causes a government shutdown on July 1.

But the protesters not only want a budget before government shuts down, many, who were with the Washington Education Association, want a budget that is aligned with the Washington Supreme Court’s mandate for the Legislature to amply fund education.

Proposed budgets only allocate $250 to $300 million in additional revenue for education, despite the McCleary decision, which calls for $1 billion this year alone, said Steven Miller, who is vice president-elect of the Washington Education Association.

(Joe Adamack, a spokesperson for Hill, said the Senate budget allocates $1.0 billion in additional funding for education and the House of Representatives allocated $905 million in their base budget as well as $1.01 billion in a proposal if specific tax increases were enacted. These figures are

of the question” and that both sides will immediately come together over a final plan. Hill said the Senate budget plan has $200 million more for basic education than the House of Representatives’ plan.

However, Kirkland City Councilwoman Shelley Kloba spoke at the rally and urged citizens to get involved and write to legislators about how they are affected by budget decisions. She told the community to stand together to demand legislators agree on a budget that does not present the “false choice” between education and critical needs of the most vulnerable.

“We can build a world-class education system, but if the kids are hungry and stressed because of instability in their home environments, then we will not be successful,” said Kloba. “It is so important to provide the support that families need so they don’t have to choose between health care and putting food on the table.”

Redmond High School teacher honored as a classroom hero Joe Wilson Special to the Reporter

Symetra and the Seattle Seahawks honored Redmond High School (RHS) teacher Paula Ferguson and 23 other Puget Sound-area teachers as Heroes in the Classroom on May 24 at CenturyLink Field. The teachers received a tour of the owner’s box and the press box before using the coaches’ elevator to reach the Seahawks’ locker room. “They made lockers for all of us, and put our pictures in when we received our awards,� said Ferguson about the event. “I didn’t expect to win this at all, it was really cool.�

Ferguson, who has been directing the RHS orchestra program for nine years, was nominated for the award by RHS alumnus Christine Ito. Thanks to Ito, Ferguson was honored at an assembly this spring for her educational excellence. “Teaching here at Redmond is awesome because all the teachers support their students and work hard to make sure the students are successful,� Ferguson said. “The creativity in these high school students is pretty amazing.�

In addition to the luncheon at CenturyLink Field, Ferguson won $1,000 for RHS donated by Symetra. The 24 teachers also met Seahawks left tackle

Russell Okung and heard him speak about two of his elementary school teachers who were among those honored at the event.

As Ferguson continues to spend her time preparing her students for upcoming concerts and teaching students at the middle- and high-school levels, the graduating classes honor her in their own way.

Ito started a year-end orchestra tradition, which has the senior class decorating the shelf above Ferguson’s desk with a new piece of memorabilia — a framed photograph, a toy or a souvenir — as a thank you to Ferguson for her teaching and directing.

King County Parks is seeking volunteers to clean up at Marymoor concerts See some of your favorite bands at no cost at Marymoor Park this summer while helping King County Parks keep the Marymoor concert venue sparkling clean.

King County Parks is seeking volunteers for its Marymoor Recycling/ Composting Crew at this summer’s Marymoor Park

Concert Series. As in past years, volunteers receive free entry and parking for the shows at which they volunteer.

As part of its ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship, King County Parks worked with concert promoter AEG Live to continue the recycling and composting program

for a fifth season.

With the help of volunteers in promoting recycling and composting to concertgoers and keeping the Marymoor concert venue free of litter, this program helps shrink the impacts of the summertime concert series.

Thanks to this program’s success, King County Parks

has been able to divert more than half of the waste generated each year from the landfill, instead sending recyclable and compostable materials to processing facilities for reuse.

Prospective volunteers must be at least 18 years old, and no experience is necessary. Volunteers will be able to watch the show before or

after their shift and are able to hear the entire concert.

Shifts last approximately three hours, and start times vary with each concert.

Groups and families are encouraged to volunteer together.

Volunteers are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis, and since shifts fill quickly, interested volun-

teers are encouraged to submit their concert requests as soon as possible.

More information, including the concert volunteer application form, is at www.kingcounty.gov/ recreation/parks/volunteer/ recycling.aspx. For information on the Marymoor Park Concerts, visit www. marymoorconcerts.com.
