Enumclaw City Council candidate debate - Part II Editor’s Note: For the second week City Council candidates for positions one, three, five and seven responded to three in-paper debate questions presented by the editorial department and columnist Rich Elfers.

The candidates are : Position No. 1 Morgan Irwin.

Pamela Harding has withdrawn although her statement is in the voter’s pamphlet.

Position No. 3: Mike Sando.

Shelby DeVol has withdrawn.

Position No. 5: Tom Mann and Juanita Carstens.

Position No. 7: Hoke Overland and Sean Krebs.

Question 1: During last Wednesday’s city budget workshop, it was announced Creationfest will be ending its contract to use the Expo Center with the city. What should the city do with the Expo Center considering there will be an additional $60,000-$80,000 deficit to Expo reserves?

Carstens: Losing CreationFest is a blow but with a facility like the

Expo Center we are always going to be looking for new groups and new events to use the venue.

Attracting events and marketing the facility to a Juanita Carstens wide range of users has to be first and foremost on the agenda.

We should target smaller groups, like farmer’s markets, entrepreneurs that have wares to sell, as well as larger groups, like the Highland Games and the Olympic Kennel Club Dog Show, which are popular.

Filling the calendar will benefit not only the profitability of the Expo Center but it will also be great for our local businesses. City administrators, council and expo staff are diligently working with purpose to best address this question.

Mann: As a candidate I don’t have all the facts needed to make the best decision for the residents of Enumclaw, but I do have some thoughts and envision Enumclaw being competitive with other medi-

um-sized venues.

I continue to believe, we need to stay the course.

Expo Center Management has done a good job cutting deficit Tom Mann spending by close to $250,000 over the past couple of years and I believe they will do their best to backfill and offset this loss of revenue. To begin we should explore the King County parks levy and grants. Longer term, we may need to consider a request for pricing from the private sector to manage and maintain the facility.

We could easily craft the pricing request to protect the jobs of the existing workforce.

Question 2: Address any issue not yet addressed in the campaign.

Carstens: For those of us who live here, Enumclaw is a fabulous community. We have good schools, churches, charity organizations and a lot of citizen involve-

ment. One thing that I believe to be important to the health of our community is managing future growth and building. As a retired Realtor, I have a unique perspective on the future housing needs of not only our current residents but also those who would like to move here and make Enumclaw their home.

I am looking forward to using a commonsense, proactive approach when dealing with future growth.

Mann: During Wednesday’s workshop, it was confirmed that funding was previously set aside and proposed in the budget to pay for a special ballot measure to fund road repair consistent with Enumclaw’s Transportation Benefit District. With many of our roads crumbling, why haven’t we engaged our citizens in a meaningful way to explain we have needed a funding mechanism since 2007? This is when the city last hired a consultant and contemplated developing a pavement management program. The longer we wait, the more expensive it is for needed repairs. I

CONTEST

The city of Buckley hopes to sell its natural gas system and has a willing buyer in Puget Sound Energy – now it’s up to the voting public to decide.

Proposition No. 1 appears on the general election ballot.

The idea of selling off the natural gas utility has been years in the making, as the notion of a small town maintaining its own system became increasingly difficult. Ever-increasing regulatons placed on the natural gas industry have made it

difficult for small operators to provide the service at a competitive price. Added to the mix are costs of upkeep on an aging system and the often-volatile open market.

Finally, earlier this year, members of the Buckley City Council decided to put the natural gas system up for sale, using a competitive bid process. A few suitors expressed interest but, in the end, only Puget Sound Energy jumped in. PSE offered 5.4 million, slightly more than the city had hoped to get.

The city had previously polled its citizens and received resounding support for unloading the gas

system.

A sale to PSE may benefit both private citizens and Buckley businesses if early numbers are to be believed.

Information found in the current voters pamphlet notes that PSE’s residential rates are up to 10 percent less that the city now charges, while PSE’s business rate is, on average, 6 percent less than the city’s.

A citizen group favoring the sale adds that Buckley is unable to provide many of the incentives PSE has at its disposal – things like rebates on energey-efficient appliances and weatherization programs.

Initiative 522 – badly written, costly and misleading Consumers would pay higher grocery prices “Economic studies show I-522 would increase grocery prices for Washington families by hundreds of dollars per year.”

Dan Newhouse, Former Director Washington State Department of Agriculture

Closing statement Carstens: I have lived in Enumclaw most of my life. I have raised my family here and my grandchildren attend Enumclaw schools. I have owned a

Wednesday, October 30, 2013 • The Enumclaw Courier-Herald • Page 3 business in Enumclaw and have worked selling real estate on the Plateau for many years. When I was approached in the spring about running for City Council, I gave it a lot of thought. I like the idea of giving back to the community that has given so much to me and my family over the years. I live here, I’ve worked here and I volunteer here. This is home.

Mann: I have lived in Enumclaw for years. I raised my children here.

I have the same concerns about this city as the neighbors and constituents I

visited door to door during this campaign. In my role as senior staff for the Teamster organization, my strengths included managing budgets and costs with direct contact and accountability to my constituents.

While some try to divide us into “one of us, or one of them” I am sure all candidates share a primary interest to maintain the quality of life in Enumclaw.

Including maintaining our streets, parks, our public safety and the delivery of quality public services the community has said it wants. This is the time to

decide if we want business as usual or inclusiveness, transparency and accountability for our community.

Position No. 7: Hoke Overland and Sean Krebs.

Question 1: Krebs: First, I want to note that the question actually seems to be asking about Expo Center revenue, not “reserves.” It’s unfortunate that the city is facing this further lack of revenue, but it is better to learn about it during budget planning than if we had anticipated receiving that money next year.

Earlier this year, council directed administration to form an Expo Center Advisory Board, made up of interested and knowledgeable stakeholders, to consider the issues and provide guidance to council.

At the next council meeting, administration will report back on the progress of this board. Council has a workshop planned to address this further deficiency. I continue to believe that the best course for the Expo Center is to adopt a business plan and a longterm management strategy.

I would like to see among the considered alternatives

the possibility of a private vendor taking over management and operations of the Expo Center.

Overland: Summer is the Expo Center’s prime season and some of that revenue gap can be filled by other events. However, Creation’s departure underscores the need for a quality hotel or two in Enumclaw; the town’s lack of lodging options has been one of the Expo’s most difficult obstacles. Our Economic Development Committee must get busy and rectify this hotel problem, and our current council’s position on Creationfest may not have been helpful. Ultimately, the Expo Center must be able to compete like a business— including having a city that’s prepared to host.

Other ideas for additional revenue include: attractions such as an early settlers/Native American interactive museum, a children’s museum (on-going draws to bring busloads of children and tourists), or even use some of the property as an incubator to allow inexpensive rent for start-up businesses, such as wineries. Woodinville and Walla Walla are two successful examples.

Question 2: Krebs: During a campaign, it’s easy to focus on a single issue. But the reality of being a council member is much different. Each council member is one part of a seven-person body that oversees all the services the city provides, including public safety, utilities, zoning, parks and recreation management, and perhaps most importantly, the budget and the comprehensive plan, a state-required document that impacts nearly all the decisions and planning for the city for the next several years. Council members have to identify common sense approaches and pragmatic solutions to the challenges and opportunities the city faces. I would have liked to see candidates focus more on exploring their ideas to address actual city issues, but I guess that’s politics.

Overland: My opponent has headed the Economic Development Committee for the last four years.

Many of our problems stem from this committee’s lack of action. Other nearby communities are flourishing, yet last year Enumclaw issued only two residential

Washington Cities. I understand our budget process and appreciate the responsibility to be good stewards with taxpayer dollars and infrastructure needs. My experience and common sense approach to leadership will help guide Enumclaw into the future.

Overland: We can’t satisfy our day-to-day shopping needs in town, so we spend our shopping and tax dollars in other nearby communities. If we can’t draw niche stores to meet our local shopping demands, we need to attract a small-scale Fred Meyer or something similar—not Walmart—to the Highway 410 district, and downtown’s focus should become tourism-oriented shopping.

If elected, I will protect our city’s charm and use your tax dollars wisely to serve the interests of our citizens. As chief of operations for King County Medic One, I know the importance of fostering a collaborative environment to expedite a unified outcome. Enumclaw is at a critical point, fighting for its quality of life, and we need action—not more talk. I thank Councilman Krebs for serving on our council for 12 years, but it’s time for fresh ideas. Let’s return Enumclaw to a vibrant, thriving place.

To vote in this week’s poll, see www.courierherald.com

The Enumclaw Courier-Herald • Page 6

Letters

What did you think about the answers to three questions in last week’s Courier-Herald from the City Council candidates? Dennis Box, the managing editor, and I felt it was important to show our readers whether the candidates possessed the skill of critical thinking by answering difficult political questions. They were asked to comment about the direction the city of Enumclaw should take in regard to fixing our streets and utilizing the Expo Center. The candidates had to work hard to formulate solutions. City officials and school district staff were contacted for answers.

I’ve answered the questions myself because, since I don’t face the voters in the polls, I have no agenRich Elfers da. My hope is that Columnist my perspectives will help you, the voters, to make the best choices for the city council.

Question 1: Are you willing to raise taxes to fix our streets?

(This can be done using councilmatic bonds and not going to the public for a vote.)

This question was probably the hardest one for the council candidates to answer. Publicly advocating a tax increase is currently tantamount to committing political suicide.

Almost all the responses stated they would go to the public for a vote to raise taxes. That was the politically correct answer and accurately reflects the mood of voters in the nation, but it is not the type of government we have. We have representative government.

What do we need a council for if every decision was subject to a citywide election? The reason we elect representatives in the first place is because the issues are often very complex and require more time and study to find the best solutions.

A street study ordered by the city and done six to seven years ago strongly warned that the longer streets were allowed to run down, the costlier it would be for the taxpayers to fix them.

The council has avoided investing in streets for most of the last five years because they were afraid of the public’s wrath over increased taxes. The council also resisted going into debt to fix them because they feared they could not pay it back due to slumping city income during the recession. These were valid concerns, but in my opinion, short-sighted. The best and honest answer is for the council to think in the long term. What approach towards streets costs the least money?

The least costly approach is constant maintenance. Wellmaintained streets also raise property values.

2. Should the city give the Expo Center to the school district, or should the city stay the course with the current plan of renting the venue to different groups and events?

Giving the Expo Center to the school district was hypothetical. It was meant to cause candidates to think out of the box. Some got stuck on the question.

One council candidate said it was probably illegal to give

The ceremonial lighting of the community tree and lamp poles in purple, the handling of violence by pop culture, and the willingness of community members to reach out for others was displayed for all on Oct. 1 at the Domestic Violence Awareness Month presentation.

For the last three years LINCCK has highlighted how we can better interact with others in our community and have healthier relationships with intimate partners. This year’s program had the EHS Drama Club present four skits with scenes from sitcoms to musicals. Folks were tapping their toes to popular music, not realizing lyrics told of wanting a partner dead rather than being with another.

Kim and Dave Sweeney, retired officer Dave Voss and Bernie McKinney helped make this presentation a success. The students, organized by Katee Wilson, did an amazing portrayal of what happens in these terrible situations.

Often pop culture at best offers no solution to domestic violence, and at worst even glorifies DV. The initial skit, performed before folks knew that actors were present, was so real that a bystander actually intervened to help the victim.

That was the essence of our message – bystanders taking action.

Thanks goes to the city of Enumclaw for bringing awareness to this issue, and to community members that support LINCCK’s efforts of making our community healthier.

I have great concern about the ramifications if Proposition No. 1 (fire levy increase for District 28) does not pass.

Since Fire District 28 annexation in 2011, moving the governing body of the fire department from the city to the district and also through a Federal SAFER Grant, the minimum number of firefighters, on shift, has positively increased from two to four.

This has allowed for the transport of medical patients to our hospital and has given the firefighters the immediate ability to search a structure fire for viable victims, rather than having to wait for another engine company to arrive.

There must be two crews available (at least four firefighters) to cover concurrent medical aid calls or for immediate entry to a structure fire.

Having them transport has greatly increased community satisfaction (not waiting 15 to 45 minutes for an AMR crew to arrive, as well as having members of the community provide the care); ER (emergency room) staff satisfaction greatly increased (getting the story from the first responders on the scene and providing continuity of care); and increased revenue to the community.

As a medical team member and a mother in this community, I truly believe that asking to pay $0.31 more per $1,000 assessed value of your home (cost of approximately $7 per month for a house costing $300,000) is not too much to ask. That will bring Enumclaw’s fire and EMS rate to $1.80. Comparably, Buckley is assessed at $2.07 per $1,000 and District 44 is at $2.15 per $1,000, and more if their excess levy passes.

It is unacceptable for my family or other families in the community to

not be able to rely on the success and safety of our 911 system and have it continue to grow with our needs.

Our firefighters work their bunker gear off to offer their best efforts to a community that they adore and provide outstanding service to every day. They, in my opinion, are second to none.

Please vote “yes” to Proposition No 1.

Meesa Taylor Enumclaw

Supports firefighters, not the ballot proposal Note: the following is addressed to King County Fire District 28.

As a taxpayer. I have been interested in the debate going on. I have been reading the information regarding the spending. I have been paying attention to both sides.

I attended the (Oct. 16) meeting and I would like to see that meeting done over. How about a larger venue where more non KCFD citizens could sit down and participate? I would like a mediator to keep things civil. I would like Elbert Reed to be in attendance. I will rally our local League of Women Voters to attend.

I oppose the levy lid lift but that does not mean I am against our local firefighters. That does not mean I am against future levies.

Right now KCFD 28 is asking for a significant increase over the previous levy. You are asking for this increase over six years. You are telling us it is for maintenance and equipment.

I, along with many others, are concerned with how a significant reserve fund has been managed.

I do not say that to criticize, merely to point out there have been choices

Through the centuries, certain practices stemming from such ancient times evolved and morphed into costumes, trick-ortreating, jack-o-lanterns and today’s

Halloween parties. These modern, playful customs were brought to America by Irish immigrants, but most other fundamentalist Christian immigrants, like the Pilgrims, condemned such mirthful celebrations because they seemed to worship evil beings.

Today, some religious sects and denominations, Christian and otherwise, still reject Halloween traditions because of their pagan beginnings. This seems a bit strange and irrational. I mean, we have all kinds of traditions, like honeymoons, wed-

LETTERS FROM 7 made in money management and working within a budget.

I value what our firefighters and EMTs do. I have utilized these services for my parents for both fire and health issues. I have sat on the back of the aid car and joked with you. I like you. Please do not take my opposition to your request for more

money personally.

More money is not going to solve issues of mismanagement and from a business perspective that is how it appears.

At what point did our fire department become land developers and profiteers on ambulance services?

I am your champion. You don’t have to like me but please keep in mind my point of view when asking me for more money.

Pleased to support Reed for fire post We are pleased to support Elbert Reed for fire commissioner, District 28, Position 2.

I write these words to encourage each of you to truly take time to think about the future of Black Diamond.

As a former mayor, current member of the Black Diamond lodge, volunteer at the Museum (including chair for the Coal Miner’s Honor Garden), former councilman, town marshal, road grader and dog catcher, this city and these issues are very important to me.

In 1974 when I became mayor, we took additional advantage of obtaining funds from outside resources and were able to begin work on the sewer systems; and that grant also including paving of many of our gravel roads. Without these outside resources, this work would not have been

accomplished.

The previous mayors and I have always had the dream that we would someday develop the land around us into a city that we could be proud of with controlled and managed growth. Instead of following the path of some other communities that have allowed more uncontrolled growth, Black Diamond staunchly worked to control the development plans. This plan is not the picture or message that some people are inaccurately representing. Personally I have been involve with these plans since their inception and have done so because I do want to see our growth happen in the right way.

Thus, the master plan development (MPD) was created, presented to the community in multiple occasions and approved by the council. It has been updated many times to make adjustments based on needs identified by the citizens of Black Diamond. The MPD has also been challenged multiple times. Each appeal, which has cost the taxpayers in Black Diamond many thousands of dollars, has been heard by hearing examiners and judges and denied.

Also unique to our master plan is the requirement that developers pay for the cost of the related infrastructure items. This includes land and money for schools, fire department, parks, trails, lighting, crosswalks and much more.

This is money that does not come from taxpayers; it is an outside resource.

The citizens of Black Diamond will make the choice about our city’s future

not anyone else. As we make those decisions I encourage you to be very careful in your thoughts as the ramifications can be costly.

As a person who has lived here all my life and have helped to build the city, I believe the right decision is to move forward with controlled growth. Without that we go back to what we used to be, a place with no businesses, no tax revenues, no monies to support our fire and police protections, no monies to maintain roads, no monies to maintain water and sewer systems, and no monies to make improvements for safety, medical needs and other items that are important to us.

Please vote for the candidates who have knowledge and history of our city, who understand our needs, who support the master plan development because it is the path to a better future.

Fire district must live within budget Attending the “citizens meeting” the other night, I was amazed to see about twothirds of the attendees being firemen; not all of them being from Enumclaw. The voters there were intimidated by this overwhelming influx of the firefighters. This did not set well with a number of those in attendance.

I noticed the “large” ad for our local politics, Fire Proposition 1 support sponsored by the firefighters union.

idea of funding our EMS and fire department. I will always support the people that put themselves in harm’s way for me, my family and friends and fellow citizens. I just don’t like the idea of how the union is going about this. The union is fighting for the jobs here and if there are less jobs, their dues will be smaller. A core problem with public sector unionism is that it creates a uniquely powerful interest group. In theory, bureaucrats are supposed to work for and be accountable to the elected representatives of the people.

But suppose those bureaucrats organize into large, well-funded, powerful unions that can tip election results. In effect, public sector unionism thus means that representatives of the union will often be on both sides of the collective bargaining table like with our KCFD 28 commissioners. Not just influencing pay but how our dollars are spent in the department.

Now this particular meeting was basically against this proposition and yes it was biased. They kept bringing up the bad decisions that have been made in the past and that everyone is aware of. The past is not our future.

I believe in our American voting system. Let the people decide. But not like this. Not when they do not even mention that which has created the issue. The issue being that they need this money to replace what was unwisely spent. I would like to see more needed equipment, like new air packs, than buying a piece of land for a new fire station that is not needed at this time. Sell the land and buy the equipment.

It would appear to me that our KCFD 28 is trying very hard to pull the wool over the noninformed voter. And I do not agree with it. In the past I have fully supported the fire departments. But, our economy is forcing us to look at the financial responsibilities we have as citizens and to recognize that we cannot just keep saying “yes” to everything.

It’s our money, it needs to be handled appropriately. The fire department raises were mandated by the union agreement, did the voters get a raise – I doubt it. They increased their own expenses. Without consideration of the voters.

You may be able to afford to keep turning your dollars over to them, but I cannot, and neither can the voters of KCFD 28.

We all have to live on a budget; let’s make KCFD live within their budget. We need citizens on the fire board that will reflect the view of the voters.

Win or lose, White River will host a Class 2A playoff game Nov. 8. Should the Hornets secure the league’s No. 1 seed they would play the Seamount League’s No. 2 squad; if White River advances as a No. 2 seed, the Hornets would play the No. 3 entry from the Olympic League.

Game time on the 8th is tentatively set for 7 p.m.

White River’s only setback of the SPSL 2A campaign came Friday night in the form of a heartbreaking 34-33 loss to the Steilacoom Sentinels.

High school athletes play their regular season and preliminary postseason rounds September through October, then put the clubs away until late May. In the spring, some will jump directly to the state Class 3A and 2A tournaments, while others will play in a qualifying tournament,

Class for parents of kids ready for kindergarten A free class for parents of young children – entitled “Is Your Child Ready for Kindergarten?” – is being hosted by the Enumclaw School District.

The first session is planned for Nov. 14.

Class size is limited, so the district encourages early registration.

Free child care will be offered, along

with free books and toys.

To register, call 360-802-7125 and to learn more visit www.ReadyForKindergarten. org.

The Enumclaw district has adopted the READY! for Kindergarten program, which was developed more than a decade ago by The Children’s Reading Foundation at the

request of the Kennewick (Wash.) School District.

As part of its effort to measure student success, the Kennewick School District standardized the assessment of entering

kindergarteners. Results showed only 50 percent of scored at an age-appropriate level in language and literacy skills; the other half were already two to three years behind on the first day of kindergarten.

Students of the Month named Members of the Enumclaw Rotary Club recognized two “Students of The Month” during their Oct. 17 meeting.

Madison McKeever, daughter of John and Nancy McKeever of Enumclaw, was the recipient from Enumclaw High School. A strong academic student taking three Advanced Placement courses, she has a 3.99 cumulative grade-point average. She is secretary of the National Honor Society, plays flute in the wind ensemble, serves as captain of the swim team and also works at the Enumclaw pool. She hopes to attend the University of Washington next fall with the hopes of becoming an author.

Megan Miller, daughter of Laurie and John Miller of Buckley, was the recipient from White River High School. She has a 3.97 cumulative GPA and, while in high school, has been active in FFA serving as this year’s club president. She also is a three-sport athlete competing in volleyball, golf and track. She plans on attending either Washington State University or the University of Idaho to study agricultural education or agricultural engineering.

be by being selfish, sure, but that’s a defect we’ve been fighting forever (keep fighting, BTW). Now we make relationships harder via unrealistic expectations. We’ve grown so accustomed to the processed, packaged, guaranteed “good life” that we hardly know how to work with a living and unpredictable thing anymore. And relationships are both living and unpredictable. Don’t be scared :).

My prescription regarding relationships is simple: soften your expectations and thicken your skin. When something goes wrong, quit taking it to heart as if someone deliberately wounded you.

Most of us have very few actual enemies within our spheres, yet an excess of impatience, misunderstandings and assumptions to dole out. When something goes right that’s less than you’d hoped for (or different), humble yourself and get happy about it for what it is: it’s a small gift. Get a sense of humor about the irritating things in life. As your bedrock, take hold of the only guaranteed relationship available to you, honor its call to love others, find your strength in God and let the people around you out of the shrink-wrap.

Still time to plant trees, move shrubs, add bulbs The end of October is when frost finishes off the summer garden but there is still time to improve your landscape if you enjoy working outdoors with a nip in the air. It is not too late to add trees and shrubs to the landscape or to transplant overgrown shrubs. You can move shallow-rooted shrubs like rhodies, camellias and azaleas any time of year but you won’t have to worry about keeping the soil moist after the transplant if you move them in October.

You can continue to add bulbs to the landscape and even pot up bulbs like Paper White narcissus and hyacinths for indoor use. When it comes to how deep to plant your bulb, the sage advice is to plant at twice the height of the bulb. This means the larger the bulb the deeper the hole.

Here are a few more unusual bulbs to seek out and plant now: Sweetly scented daffodils: The term daffodil applies to many members of the genus Narcissus, a spring bloomer that adapts to shade, is not eaten by deer or voles

THANK YOU The city of Enumclaw Social and Human Services Board wishes to offer kudos to the local agencies, including (but not limited to) Plateau Outreach Ministries,

and loves our climate.

You can find different varieties that flower from February until May and when you plant the bulb Marianne Binetti will influence when the flowers bloom.

Columnist Planting in late October or November means you’ll have to wait longer for the flowers to bloom come spring.

One of the sweetest smelling daffodils is Narcissus jonquilla with names like Pheasant’s Eyes, Minnow and Thalia. The Tazetta Narcissi or Poet’s Narcissi are also fragrant and easy to grow.

An easy project with many happy returns is to fill a large pot with a few inches of potting soil, layer in enough narcissi so they are sitting close to one another on their fat bottoms and then cover the bulbs with at least six more inches of potting soil. You can add a top layer of smaller bulbs like crocus or snowdrops and cap this with a few more inches of soil. Top the layers of bulbs with some winter-blooming pansies.

Leave this pot outdoors so the bulbs can experience the chill of winter cold that they need before they can flower. In spring you’ll have a beautiful display of fragrant flowers that will push up through the top layer of pansies. The pot can be moved to a front porch, back patio or just outside a bedroom window. Now you’ll really know what it means to have the smell of spring in the air.

Multi-Flowering or Bouquet Tulips

Why plant a tulip bulb and get just one bloom, when for the same amount of work you can enjoy a bulb that flowers with four or five flowers? Welcome to the world of multiple-stemmed tulips. The variety Happy Family is a rich pink while the multiple blooms and the tulip Antoinette starts out pale yellow then changes to green and pink.

My favorite tulip is called Angelique and it displays double pink blooms flushed with white and always with more than just one flower per bulb in my garden. Angelique

action. Without these resources, many in our community would suffer.

Masow’s psychological hierarchy states we each have basic needs in life: physiological, safety, belongingness and love, esteem, self-actualization and self-transcendence. Agencies across the Plateau are networking to meet

blooms on stems just 18 inches tall which is considered a bit short for a tulip but in our rainy spring climate it is the taller tulips that seem to topple over so I like to plant shorter varieties.

You don’t even need to know the names of the bulbs you add to your garden this month. Gardening is an adventure and your yard is your playground. Scoop up any end-of-season bulbs you find for sale and just dig in. Spring will unwrap itself in mystery flowers, a gift for adventurous gardeners.

YES on BUCKLEY PROPOSITION 1 “We’d be proud to be on your team, Buckley” PSE Pierce County natural gas team

To our Buckley customers, We’re the Puget Sound Energy natural gas team. On your ballot for the November 5 election, Proposition 1 asks for your approval of the sale of Buckley’s natural gas system to PSE. Earlier this year, the city put the gas system up for bid because it was becoming harder for it to keep up with growing regulatory requirements and other costs. PSE submitted the winning bid, which was then approved by the city council. Now, it’s up to the voters.

We’ve been Buckley’s electric company for decades, and we serve much of western Washington with natural gas, too. We’d be honored to bring our gas system experience and knowledge to Buckley. We know your family and your business count on us for safe, reliable and affordable service. If approved, Proposition 1 will allow us to offer you these benefits: • Energy-efficiency grants

• Low-income assistance programs

• Budget payment plans

• Lower rates

• Multiple payment and account management choices

We hope you will support Proposition 1. If you have any questions, please call us at 253-381-7313.

WOMEN IN BUSINESS • Wednesday, October 30, 2013 • Page 13

WOMEN IN

BUSINESS A percentage of this Special Section’s revenue will be donated to St. Elizabeth Hospital’s Mammogram Program.

Starting a business is never an easy task Starting a business is no small task. But as the 21st century progresses, more and more female entrepreneurs are embracing the challenge of starting their own businesses.

Though each entrepreneur has his or her own motivation for starting a business, the chance to be your own boss and turn an idea into a successful business is a driving force for both male and female entrepreneurs. And though male and female entrepreneurs face similar hurdles when starting a business, many female entrepreneurs might be more hesitant to set out on their own, fearing that old stigmas about women in the workplace might affect their chances at success by making potential investors or financial institutions wary of women setting out on their own.

Though such concerns unfortunately are legitimate, women should not assume that such stigmas prevail. The continued success of female entrepreneurs has shed new light on just how successful female entrepreneurs can be. The following are a few tips for women looking to start their own business. * Seek out a mentor. Many female entrepreneurs have blazed the trail you are about to embark on, and such women can prove an invaluable resource as you begin your journey.

Find a female business owner you can connect with and ask her for any advice she can offer. She might not be able to help you with any specifics regarding your business, but she can very well share stories of what you can expect as a woman

setting out to start her own business. * Have an airtight business plan. As unjust as it is, a stigma about women in the workplace still exists in the minds of some professionals. This means women must be especially diligent and detailed when creating their business plan. One helpful hint is to act as if you are pitching yourself. Look at your business plan and ask if you would invest in yourself.

Ask yourself the questions you would ask a fellow entrepreneur if he or she approached you with the same business plan you just developed. There's no harm to be done by using every resource at your disposal, especially your own business savvy and experience. * Don't expect to finance the business entirely on your own. Unless your business is going to be especially small, you're going to need capital to start your business. If you think you can finance the business on your own, you might want to reconsider. A business loan or investors can help you plan for the unexpected. If you attempt to go it alone, open your business and then find you need a business loan, the lending institution might find your brand has already been damaged and is less likely to succeed. That can make it harder to secure a business loan. Though it's possible to finance your business entirely out of your own pocket, it never hurts to partner up with a bank or a handful of investors. * Rely on your support system. Many women with business experience might feel they need to prove something to themselves when starting their own business and need to do so entirely on their own. While that's great motivation, underestimating the value of your support system, including your spouse, children and even your mentor, is a mistake.

Rely on these people who all want you to succeed, and turn their support into extra motivation.

A SALUTE to women entrepreneurs, bringing creativity, vision and more to the businesses of our community.

Remain calm when getting called back after mammogram Going for a mammogram can induce anxiety and raise questions before, during and after the procedure. Receiving a callback for further views or testing can put women even more on edge. But very often, these procedures are nothing to worry about.

When a doctor requests additional mammogram views or even a biopsy, this doesn’t necessarily mean he or she has found cancer. It just means the doctor needs further clarification of an abnormality seen on the mammogram. Breast tissue is dense, and sometimes mammograms do not provide adequate views of all areas of the breast. An anomaly on a mammogram might be a benign calcification in the breast, a shadow or a noncancerous lump.

Getting called back for another look is quite common. The American Cancer Society says about 10 percent of women who have had a mammogram will be called back for more tests. Only about 10 percent of those women will require a biopsy. And among those who do, 80 percent of the biopsies turn out to be benign.

In general, most doctors will receive results of follow-up mammograms and biopsies within one to two weeks.

See calm, Page 14

Page 14 • WOMEN IN BUSINESS • Wednesday, October 30, 2013 calm, from Page 13 What to Expect at a Follow-up Exam There are different steps doctors can take to further clarify an anomaly in breast tissue.

One of the first procedures is another mammogram, typically called a diagnostic mammogram. The breasts will be imaged, but this time it may take longer because more images may be ordered of particular areas of the breast or breasts. The breast tissue needs to be thinned out considerably in a mammogram, and this can be uncomfortable for women, particularly those with large breasts.

Some doctors recommend scheduling a mammogram after your menstrual period has ended, and you can take a painkiller to minimize pain.

A doctor may order an ultrasound as well.

A technician will apply a clear gel to your skin and ask you to lie back on a table. The technician will then pass a transducer on the breast. This device sends out high-frequency sound waves and maps the echoes it receives to form a picture. This ultrasound is the same type of procedure used to check a fetus dur-

ing pregnancy. An ultrasound may diagnose an abnormality that a doctor cannot see well on a mammogram.

A doctor might resort to an MRI if ultrasound or a traditional mammogram prove inconclusive. MRI scans use magnets and radio waves to produce detailed images. There are now open MRI machines that minimize feelings of claustrophobia for those who have an aversion to the closed tubes of traditional machines.

If you need a biopsy, a needle may be pushed into the breast to capture fluid or tissue from the suspicious area. Some doctors make a small surgical incision to remove abnormal tissue. The sample will be examined under a microscope to determine the types of cells.

Learning about tests that are conducted for breast health can put women’s minds at ease while waiting for follow-up appointments and results. Discuss any questions you may have with your doctor and rest assured that a follow-up test is not indicative of a cancer diagnosis.

Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to do hair. I remember doing my girlfriends hair like Billy Idol in 7th grade and I thought her mom would kill me. Since then I’ve done pretty well with it. I went to Bothell High and enrolled in the Running Start program in the summer of my Junior year, full-time my Senior year and then landed my first job with Randy Evans. I was his apprentice for one year. We would style for Northwest Afternoon and fashion guru Robert Ponte. With them I was able to transform ugly ducklings into swans. This is where I also met my two fabulous partners Dori Marbett and Lisa Noji. We opened Salon Divas together 1996 and three years ago opened a new salon on 4th and vine.

Sometimes I think I’m living the life of Green Acres. I have a Salon in my mother in law’s apartment in Enumclaw that I work out of two days and Downtown three days. My husband and I have five children together and they are at the age where they are trying to figure out who they want to be and I say, “Do what you love to do, because you will do it a lot.”

All of my children graduated right here in Enumclaw and now I have a grandchild going to Kibler. I love this community as much now as I did back then. For the past six years I have been privileged enough to work for Enumclaw Health and Rehabilitation Center (right across from St. Elizabeth’s’ Hospital) as Admissions and Marketing Director. I did not fully appreciate this valuable rehabilitation center until I was here for awhile. Our short term rehab helps so many people to be able to stay right here in town and get the therapy and nursing care they need after a hospital stay, so they can get back to their priori living situation. Our long term care keeps our loved ones right here close to us so we can visit often and participate in decisions about their care needs. The people I get to work with every day put the needs of our residents first with caring, love and respect.

I know many of you already from all of my years living and working in Enumclaw and for those of you I do not know if I can be of any help with your senior family needs please call or come by and I can show you our facility.

Sterling Bank specializes in helping customers purchase, refinance or build their home.

Whether you are a first-time home buyer, refinancing, moving, or purchasing investment property, I am confident that I can help you find the best loan for your budget and financial goals.

My clients range from first time home buyers to people on their 5th or 6th transaction. I always strive to communicate openly and honestly to create a positive and lasting experience with my customers. I have seen too many people get scared by the process and be wary of what’s involved but I love walking people throught the process and get great satisfaction in knowing that my clients ended up with the solution that was best for them.

I invite you to explore my website to learn more about the variety of the products and services Sterling Bank offers. I look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your dream.

A dear mentor and longtime community nurse, Toni Erickson, advised me in 1980 that she thought I would make a good nurse. Because I loved and respected her, I took her advice and have always been grateful for her direction. I have never regretted becoming a nurse.

In 1983 I graduated from Green River Community College with a Practical Nurse Degree.

In 1996 I became a Registered Nurse. In 2010 I received my BSN and am currently working towards a Masters in Business. For years I worked in physician offices in the Enumclaw & Buckley area. Since 1996 I have worked at St. Elizabeth Hospital. First as a labor & delivery nurse and in management since 2001.

As a bedside nurse, advocating for my patients and ensuring a great patient experience inspired me. Now as Director of Patient Care Services, advocating for nurses inspires me.

I enjoy working with our community to provide health care services and wellness support for our community members. Specifically I enjoy working with other community leaders to ensure St Elizabeth is a strong partner towards improving the health of our community. St Elizabeth is committed to taking care of our community members when appropriate. My goal is that we provide the service on the plateau that our patients need so they would not have to leave their home area for care.

I have been a doctor for nineteen years. My philosophy toward medicine is basically to help people everyday.

I want to take that bookish knowledge given to me in medical school, translate it into a working diagnosis for my patients, and then effectively communicate the treatment to the patient, so they can execute it.

I think my social skills help a lot in this regard. No matter how much knowledge you have, unless you can pass on that knowledge of the disease and treatment to the patient, it is wasted. I love this area and the people here. I live in Bonney Lake and take a lot of pride and ownership in taking care of patients in my community! Thank you for this opportunity!

I have been a nurse for 28 years. After spending some time away from nursing and running my own awards business, I entered long term care nursing in 2005 at the suggestion of my sister who was an HR director at another facility. As well as being Director of Nursing, working with residents who are in rehab or status post surgery is a major part of my job.

The ability to make a difference in someone’s life every day – even if it’s just a smile – inspires me in my work. I love listening to the stories and history that the seniors in my care have to share.

As some of our residents have been in pain for many years, my dream-come-true would be the ability to take all that pain away. Doing my best towards making them comfortable and treating them with the respect and care they deserve is my every day goal.

On August 15th, 2013 I opened Kelly’s Mercantile with the dream that it would be a place to serve, inspire and connect to a community.

I love building relationships wih the people of Enumclaw and giving them somewhere to chat and connect. One of the great aspects of Kelly’s Mercantile is that it carries a wide variety of diet-friendly foods and we can even cater to those with allergies or special dietary needs. We want to be your local gathering place and coffee house!

Debra Schweter and her husband, Jeff, are the owners of Rainier Bar and Grill and newly opened Jackson’s in downtown Enumclaw. After opening the Rainier in 2005, they’ve focused on offering exceptional fare in family-friendly atmospheres. In May of 2013, the need for a different dining venue downtown was met when Jackson’s opened its doors. Named for their grandson, Jackson, the restaurant offers artisan pizza, pasta, burgers, salads and a full bar with unique happy hour specials. Both locations boast full bars, micro brews and generous wine list.

The Rainier took 1st place in the 2013 Best of the Plateau’s Family Restaurant, American, Lunch, Bartender and Waitress categories and finalist for BBQ. Jackson’s was a finalist in Pizza/Italian and Waitress.

Debra loves Enumclaw’s small town charm and enjoys being able to provide two places where locals and those passing by can come to relax and have a great meal.

She takes great pride in the friendly and experienced staff who keep them Enumclaw’s favorite family restaurants. “I consider myself extremely lucky to have such a great staff and wonderful customers.”

I started this business after years working as a lawyer and raising my kids. I have never regretted giving up law and now my children work with me. I looked at photography as a combination of artistry, technology and business.

We opened our studio on Griffin Avenue but recently moved to 1225 Battersby Avenue. We are renovating the old house where many people in Enumclaw remember attending boy and girl scout meetings.

While I enjoy doing any kind of photo shoot, I especially enjoy working with kids.

After working with a high school senior for 2 hours, we get a pretty complete picture of who they are and what they want to do with their lives. It’s an interesting time for them and we try to capture that in our photos.

My ultimate dream would be to travel America in a mobile photo lab/RV (not the Mr. White type of Lab) and take event photos printed on site. Beats lawyering for sure!

Eighteen years ago, my husband and I moved from Kirkland to Enumclaw. A small “mom & pop” store needed a pharmacy manager. I was 2 years past graduation from University of Washington and thought I could work in this “little” town. My days with Jim’s Pharmacy began, and have not ended! I now own the store and have re-opened a second pharmacy in the Enumclaw Medical Center, Plateau Community Pharmacy.

• Specializing in residential, vacant land & commercial • Inventory is low in Buckley & Enumclaw • NOW IS THE TIME TO LIST • My success is built on referrals from word of mouth recommendations • Call me for responsive, personal service for all your real estate needs.

WINNER OF THE:

There is nothing better than a sincere “thank you” from our customers. It reminds me of why I chose pharmacy as a career in the first place. Thank you for continuing to support small business, allowing us to help you and the Plateau.

Daily, I am proud to be part of this caring community. We tend to see people during a low spot, whether sick, injured or coping with chronic problems. I enjoy providing answers to customers about medicine, their treatments and expected outcomes.

Our free delivery service has benefited many home-bound seniors through the years.

WALLY FROM 6 dings and bar mitzvahs that, in part, may have pagan origins, including our most important Christian customs. For instance, Christian communion apparently has its origins in similar heathen rites that were exercised long before Christ sanctified its practice. Even Christmas originated with the Roman holiday of Saturnalia, Dec. 17 through the 25th, which promoted drunkenness, rape and actual human sacrifice. Fourth century Christians succeeded in converting a large number of pagans to Christianity by allowing them to continue to celebrate some aspects of Saturnalia – and that became Christmas.

It also seems a bit strange and irrational that some Christians still refuse to celebrate Halloween because they feel the “holiday” worships or pays tribute to evil beings and the dark occult arts.

Really now? Do you really think those costumed revelers wandering about the downtown clubs believe in vampires and zombies, let along worship such demons?

(That question doesn’t even deserve to be dignified with an answer.) Even the little costumed kids running from store to store with their trick-or-treat bags know zombies are only make believe. Scary perhaps, but make believe nonetheless.

So, get outta the house, put on a silly outfit and come join the downtown circuit for a titilating and exotic good time.

I’ll be the ugly vampire in female attire.

Cheers!

VOTERS PAMPHLET CORRECTION Attention Voters of King County Fire District #28

Your voter’s pamphlet contains incorrect information! The statement claiming Enumclaw firefighters are the 2nd highest paid in the state is completely false. The report referenced by Mike Qualls (author of the statement against) was grossly miscalculated and later retracted by the author (August 24th). The levy’s opposition is attempting to use this misinformation to sway your vote. Below you will find correspondence from Cline & Associates (author of the retracted report) to Mr. Qualls advising him of the corrected information.

Information given to Mr. Qualls from Cline & Associates: •

“We have already explained that it is not true that the Enumclaw firefighters are highly paid”… “In fact, it appears that they are paid substantially less than other comparable fire departments.”

•

“I am hopeful that by providing you the correct information, we can prevent the continued release of misinformation which has been attributed to you.”

•

“In light of this new information, I trust that you and other organizations that you are affiliated with will not continue to state that the Enumclaw firefighters are one of the highest paid in the state.”

•

… “any reliance on any erroneous and now retracted wage survey is misplaced and any effort to characterize these firefighters as overpaid is, in my opinion, entirely misleading and baseless.”

GOLF FROM 8 89-83, good for 172 and fourth place in the field.

Four Hornet teammates earned a spot in the spring qualifying tournament. Faith Hardersen shot 187, Meagan Johnson finished at 189, Lexi Dechon ended at 190 and Sierra Hanson totaled 207.

The postseason play followed a perfect 10-0 mark in South Puget Sound League 3A action and a league championship for the EHS girls.

Enumclaw boys

Josh Erickson posted back-to-back rounds of 79, shooting 158 to capture the sixth and final spot into next spring’s Class 3A state tournament.

While he was the only Hornet to earn an automatic berth, four teammates kept their hopes alive by placing high enough to grab a spot in the spring qualifying tournament.

Kolton Tinney and Dylan Miller finished at 161, Bill Miller ended at 163 and Jared Beals came in at 164.

Caleb Coulter had a two-day total of 167, leaving him as the alternate to the spring qualifier.

During the regular season, the EHS boys compiled an unblemished 10-0 record in league play, earning the SPSL 3A title.

White River girls

906559

Hornet sophomore Maci Goethals earned a direct berth into the 2A state tournament, shooting 101 on the first day and improving to 94 for the second 18 holes, placing sixth overall with a total of 195.

Wednesday, October 30, 2013 • The Enumclaw Courier-Herald • Page 31 Four other Hornets will determine their fate in the state qualifying tournament.

Earning a spot in that tourney were Megan Miller, who shot 204, Jordanne Fray, 206, Sydnee Scott, 211, and Brooklyn Isaacs, 218.

Amanda Lance finished at 236, placed 20th, and is the first alternate to the state qualifying tournament.

As a team, the White River girls finished in a three-way tie for second place during the regular SPSL 2A season. Fife went a perfect 18-0 to claim the league title and, placing second at 12-6 were the Hornets, Sumner and Franklin Pierce.

White River boys

With only the top seven players in the field garnering automatic berths to spring’s state tournament, the Hornets were out of the running.

Several still have the opportunity to make the grade, however, as five landed a spot in the spring state qualifier. Drew Kacer placed eighth, Bryce Dahl was 10th, Hunter Ford wound up 12th, Matt Walker was 15th and Ryan Kolisch placed 16th.

Zach Rohrbach finished 19th, leaving him as the first alternate to the spring qualifier.

The postseason action came in the wake of a successful regular season in which the White River boys compiled a 12-2 league record, good for a first-place tie with Sumner.

ELFERS FROM 6 the Expo Center to the school district. I was surprised by this response since the city already virtually gave the football stadium to the school district two years ago by leasing it to them.

No legal issues came as a result.

Many of the candidates noted that the Expo Center is a great asset. It also takes time and resources that could be used for core services like police, streets, and building maintenance.

King County gave us the Expo Center to rid itself of a huge

money drain. Maintaining those buildings is extremely expensive. The county wasn’t doing us any favors. They let the facility run down before they gave it to us. Giving the city $2 million to develop it was a cheap way of getting out from under a very expensive property.

Question 3: The council has said repeatedly that the Expo Center has to be self-sustaining.

Is this a realistic stance since the costs to the $2 million reserve fund from the county have diminished to $40,000 to 60,000 per year? The Expo Center generates millions of dollars of merchant business and thousands of dollars in taxes as a result of the events from the venue.

The city over the last 2.5 years worked very hard to cut costs by bringing in shows and events to attract crowds who would then also shop in city stores, increasing revenue, both for the city and the retailers. Reserve funds were used to improve the facilities and make it more attractive as a venue. Yearly costs were cut from $250,000 per year to $60,000 last year. Unfortunately, according to city administrator Chris Searcy, for every $13,000,000 raised through increased sales, the city gains about $100,000 in tax revenue.

While the additional money helps businesses, $100,000 doesn’t go very far when fixing city streets – we need several million dollars to bring the streets up to acceptable level.

Creationfest brought $60,000 into the city each year, helping the city to increase revenues.

Unfortunately Creationfest has just announced it is leaving, which means Expo reserves will be depleted by $110,000 a year instead of only $60,000. Of course, the candidates did not have this information when the question was posed.

It’s time for the city to think of handing the Expo Center off to a business that can run it. We successfully did this with the golf course. The city would just collect rent without the hassle of maintaining it.
