U.S. congressman Adam Smith visits Island VFW

By Megan Managan

mmanagan@mi-reporter.com

U.S. congressman Adam Smith, the representative for Mercer Island, visited the Mercer Island VFW Hall on Monday, June 24, for a question-and-answer session.

Smith gave the audience of around 30 a run-down of the current situation in Washington, D.C., including what Congress has been working on.

Frank Sorba, the commander of VFW Post 5760, said members expressed their gratitude for Smith taking the time to visit and talk.

“We are grateful that he took the time to speak with us, and it may have been a good start to getting a better understanding from our Congressional repre-

sentative,” said Sorba.

Smith explained that the sequestration cut 10 percent across the board, and that the military has been a big part of those cuts because it accounts for so much of the country’s spending. Those cuts are now translating to furloughs and layoffs for military personnel and less training.

On immigration, Smith said Congress is working on a broad bill that would increase security, help create a pathway for undocumented workers to become legal citizens, and to create a better system for legal immigration.

Since Smith’s visit, the bill was passed by the U.S. Senate, and was heading for discussion in the House of Representatives.

“We need a better immigration

system,” he said, explaining that the system is far too complicated and takes too long for companies wishing to bring employees in from other places.

On the issue of tolling, Smith said it’s not going to happen this year, but that in the future the conversation will continue because the revenue for roads and transportation is simply not there.

“The gas tax is a set amount and the revenue from it has gone down as people use less gas,” he said. “Because there is less revenue, it’s likely tolling will have to be part of the conversation.”

Smith said the one problematic part of the I-90 tolling situation is that the money from tolling would go to pay for a different road, instead of the one where the money is being collected.

Mercer Island City Council member Mike Cero attended the meeting and thanked Smith for

Deputy city manager, Noel Treat, will be paid $171,000 per year when he takes over as the new city manager in January 2014. He will be replacing Rich Conrad, who announced his retirement earlier this year. Treat was selected after the City Council decided to limit the search to internal candidates.

Treat became the deputy city manager just over a year ago after being selected from a recruitment process that involved over 100 candidates. Treat was unanimously selected as the next deputy city manager by the nine-member

VFW | FROM 1 his letter asking the state for a study on tolling.

“It’s a bad policy for the nation, and we appreciate your support,” he said.

Smith said the state will ultimately decide what to do, but because the tolls are being considered on a federal highway, the Federal Highway Administration will be asked to approve or deny the plan. He added that there is precedent for the state’s getting permission from the FHA. “There is not precedence for using money to pay for another road,” said Smith.

A member of the audience asked if the FHA would make their recommendation prior to the state’s decision, which would help save the state and the City of Mercer Island money on various studies. Smith didn’t believe they would, but understood it would help save money in the long run

Smith also answered questions concerning Congress’ ability to work together and to help eliminate and lower waste, starting a discussion that would have lasted much longer than the time available.

“With regard to the federal budget sequestration, waste and fraud in the government, his answers left many of us frustrated, as he clearly stated there is no meaningful resolution being discussed to the current sequestration of the budget,” Sorba said. “The gridlock in Washington, D.C., continues and we believe America’s best interests are not being well served by this behavior on the part of all of our elected officials.”

Mercer Island seeing continued growth in building permits City to add two temporary positions to help with increase

By Mary L. Grady

editor@mi-reporter.com

Planners at the City of Mercer Island are seeing what many are hoping is a positive sign of a return to a better economy.

The number of building permits and pre-permit application conferences for Island construction projects has jumped.

Director of the Development Services Group (DSG), Scott Greenberg, calls the trend something else: “The new normal,” he said.

Greenberg asked for and received an additional $200,000 to add staff to the development services group to handle the requests.

It is money well spent.

More building activity means more permit fees and revenue for the city.

Greenberg told the City

Council on June 3 that his group has been experiencing a substantial and unplanned increase in development activity. Staff resources to handle the load were inadequate, he said.

The approved funding will add two temporary positions to the staff. One will be a temporary, full-time planner, and the other will be an on-call plan reviewer and inspector.

Greenberg said he expects that one or both of these positions may need to become permanent.

The activity has ramped up considerably since midOctober last year, he told the Reporter.

Through April 2013, new single family permits are at their highest level of the past four years. For the first four months of 2013, 25-plus permits were processed with the city — more than all of 2012.

City planners expect that amount to double by the end of the year, to more than 50. City data shows that the

The Washington State Department of Corrections recently uncovered Pang’s plot to open credit accounts in the victims’ names and transfer credit money to foreign bank accounts. Pang had number of new home construction permits fell to just 12 in 2009 before inching up to 25 in both 2011 and 2012.

Also, the city is working with developers for subdivisions and short plats totaling 83 lots that will be developed over the next few years. “This was an astonishing number for me,” Greenberg said.

The number of pre-application meetings with builders has also grown dramatically in the past few months.

“Mercer Island has more pre-application meetings than any other city I have worked for,” he said. “And that is a good thing. It means that the builder knows exactly what he needs to do before he begins.”

Police arrested McClain and found a list of names and Social Security numbers in Pang’s prison cell, along with other evidence of firefighters’ personal information.

Pang was not successful in actually stealing his victims’ identities or money from the Tulalip Casino.

The USO – Supporting Our Troops Overseas and at Home When people think of the USO (United Services Organizations) many often think of the entertainment tours they sponsor for our troops in combat zones or the care packages they send out. These important services are actually just a small part of the wide-ranging work the USO is doing to support our U.S. military service personnel and their families. In fact, while many of the USO’s services are focused on supporting our troops in the field, a growing number of services are targeted at supporting the troops returning home and their families. QFC is proud to support the work the USO does to support our troops. The USO is our Charity of the Month for July.

The USO was created in 1941 and has been continually active since 1951, but it is really only within the last decade that it has experienced a profound growth in the services it offers to pursue its mission, which is: The USO lifts the spirits of America’s troops and their families. Among the programs and services of the USO are: • USO centers for troops and families that include: – – – – –

“USO in box” for troops in isolated combat areas USO on wheels also for troops in the field USO Day Rooms in hospitals and medical facilities The Wounded Warrior Center in Landstuhl, Germany Two USO Centers at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware to support the families of fallen soldiers

• Operation Phone Home to facilitate calls from troops to their families • Pro vs. G.I. Joe, a real-time video gaming experience

that pairs soldiers against professional athletes • Health and Recreation Programs including: – Ride to Recovery, a cycling program, and Warrior Games, Olympic-style athletic competitions • Family Strengthening Programs such as: – A program featuring entertainer Trevor Romain to support military children as they adjust to a “new normal” with a wounded parent – Oxygen Couples Seminar to help work on and strengthen relationship issues

• Grief Counseling such as: – TAPS - Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors – Grief camps for children The USO is a nonprofit, congressionally chartered, private organization and is not part of the U.S. government.

It relies on the generosity of individuals, organizations and corporations to support its activities. If you would like to support the great work of the USO in supporting our troops please hand a donation card to your checker the next time you visit QFC. Thank you!

News briefs City reminds residents to help keep pipes clean The City of Mercer Island is reminding residents to help keep pipes clean in the city’s sewer system, which occasionally become clogged with fats, oils and grease that get put into the pipes from kitchens around the Island.

City staff, as part of the sanitary sewer utility, inspect the Island’s 500,000 feet of pipe and 18 pump stations throughout the year.

Fats, oils and grease from Island kitchens can severely clog pipes, specifically from meats, cooking oil, lard, shortening, butter and even ice cream. Because using hot water to wash those byproducts down the drain will cause them to adhere to the inside of pipes, the city asks that those products be scraped into the garbage instead of the sink.

The city said that if each of the Island’s 7,300 sewer connections scrapped just one teaspoon of grease, oils or fat byproducts into the sewer each day, that causes up to 63 55-gallon drums to be cleaned each year.

State regulators approve rate plan for PSE State regulators approved a multi-year rate plan for Puget Sound Energy (PSE) that will raise electric and gas rates beginning July 1, but limit increases for the next three to four years.

In approving the multi-year rate plan, the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC) will allow PSE to increase residential electric customers’ rates by 3.34 percent this year, while natural gas rates will change by 1.55 percent. The newly approved rates will produce $52.3 million of additional revenues for PSE’s electric operations and $9.1 million for its natural gas operations.

During the next three to four years, the company may increase rates by a maximum of 3 percent of PSE’s annual revenue with any excess amounts above the 3 percent recovered in the following year. These increases are expected to be substantially below the level that the company has received over the past several years. Among

the purposes of the multiyear rate plan is to provide the company with incentives to cut costs.

For the first year, the average PSE residential electric customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours-per-month will see their electric bill increase by $3.24, for a bill total of $100.33. The typical natural gas customer using 68 therms a month would pay $1.28 more, for a revised bill of $77.89.

The commission received 215 public comments on PSE’s rate-increase proposal — 201 opposed, 3 in favor and 11 undecided.

Bellevue-based Puget Sound Energy serves 1.1 million electric customers and 760,000 natural gas customers in parts of Snohomish, King, Pierce, Lewis, Thurston and Kittitas counties.

The UTC is the state agency in charge of regulating the private, investorowned electric companies in Washington. It is the commission’s responsibility to ensure that regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates, while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profit.

Teresa “Teri” Marie (Alfieri) Perrone

Seattle native, Teresa “Teri” Marie (Alfieri) Perrone, loving mother, sister, grandmother, and dear friend, died on Friday, May 31, 2013. She was 90.

Born in Seattle, WA on April 2, 1923 to parents, Angelo Gabriel and Anna Maria (Abrosia) Alfieri. Third born in a family of four children, Teri was welcomed by siblings Ralph (deceased) and Michael (deceased), and was followed by sister, Celeste (deceased). Teri wed Tony Adolfo Perrone on June 7, 1947, and the couple had four children. Elaine Perrone (deceased), William Perrone (deceased), Michael Perrone (deceased), and Donna Perrone.

In the early-60s, the Perrones planted roots on Mercer Island and quickly became engrained in the fabric of the close-knit community. Teri and Tony opened their home to family and friends very frequently for many-a-shindig. Teri’s adventurous spirit inspired her to master the game of golf in her younger years, a sport her and Tony enjoyed playing together. She loved being outdoors and her green thumb brought her many successes as a member of the Garden Club.

Teri and Tony were world travelers, and her children, grandchildren, and close friends can attest to the fact that she always returned from their adventures with generous gifts.

Among her everyday passions, outside of her family, were playing Bridge on Tuesdays and attending the movies whenever possible.

Teri’s giving nature, light-hearted take on life, and signature laugh have left an indelible mark on those close to her and will live on through her loved ones.

Teri is survived by her daughter Donna Perrone, son-in-law Monty Meier, grandson Nate Perrone, granddaughter-in-law Emily (Thiele) Perrone, granddaughter Paige (Perrone) Koler, and grandson-in-law Damon Koler.

A memorial service will be held in her memory on Tuesday, July 9, 2013 at 11am at St. Monica’s Catholic Church on Mercer Island with a reception to immediately follow.
