City to decide what to do with marijuana businesses BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
City leaders may decide Tuesday the fate of an ordinance that purports to meet the challenges posed by marijuana businesses in Auburn.
They could adopt locally enforceable state marijuana business licensing requirements while keeping the City out of any regulatory or permitting roles. Or they could extend the moratorium that’s been in effect for a year and is about to
expire. “By adding to the City Code the requirement that (such businesses) comply with state regulations,” City Attorney Dan Heid explained to members of the Planning and Community Development Com-
mittee last Monday at City Hall, “that makes it enforceable by the City. If you didn’t do that then … leaving enforcement to the state may be less than successful.” Enforcement, Heid added, could come down on a business that has set
up shop where the law says it cannot be, that doesn’t have the required security, that doesn’t have the cameras it has to have, that doesn’t meet sign requirements, that doesn’t meet [ more MARIJUANA page 4 ]

all the state regulations and statutes, that isn’t keeping proper records. All of those requirements would be violations under City code, even though the City would not be the licensing agency. Washington voters passed I-502 by a comfortable margin in November 2012, legalizing recreational marijuana throughout the state. In Auburn, 54 percent of the voters said “yes.” Or, to put it in eye-opening terms, while 80 percent of the City’s 61 precincts voted yes to I-502, a mere 12 said no. And Heid Auburn’s margin, Heid noted, was much closer than many other jurisdictions. In July 2013, the state used a lottery to grant two retail recreational marijuana businesses authorization to open in Auburn along with producers and processors. To buy the City and Auburn’s Planning Commission time to study and address potential challenges posed by recreational marijuana businesses, the City Council on Sept. 16 2013 slapped a one-yearlong moratorium on the manufacturing, processing and sale of recreational marijuana within city limits. The moratorium expires Sept. 16, one day after the council’s second meeting next month. Although the City Council presented the Planning Commission with three options, the commission soon dropped the third option from consideration because of the legal risks it entailed. Here are those options: • Option 1: outright banning the processing, producing and sale of recreational marijuana inside City limits; • Option 2: adopts the state’s enforcement tools but does not add any of Auburn’s own. For instance, the City wouldn’t add a city business license
on top of the state business license requirement; • Option 3: Would have added City regulations via licensing or additional zoning regulations The Planning Commission hosted a public workshop in May and a public hearing in the first week of August. Recently it finished its work by recommending that the City Council adopt Option 2. Under Option 2, Heid said, the City can stay true to its own code provisions that prohibit it from permitting activities that are illegal under state or federal law. The marijuana initiative presents the only case, he added, where state statute authorizes a business that is illegal under federal law. “Under Option 2, we are not the permitting agency, we are not the regulatory agency,” Heid said. “The initiative included in its language a lot of regulations. That’s where the map came from, because it had the setbacks. You cannot have these businesses in residential areas, so there’s an awful lot of property that’s not going to be used. But there aren’t setbacks for residential as such, so you look at the zone as it is, unless it’s close to one of the accepted areas.” A state Liquor Control Board regulation directs that any retail or manufacturing operations be at least 1,000 feet from schools, parks, transit stations and day cares. The City consequently produced a map that leaves only the M1 and M2 industrial and warehousing zones open to producers and processors, while restricting retail to the M1 and the three commercial zones. By keeping the City from being the regulatory agency — and consequently preventing it from permitting anything federal law considers illegal— while allowing the City to add code provisions to enforce violations of state licensing, the City under Option www.

2 could prosecute anybody who violates state licensing requirements, Heid said. Heid noted that a would-be proprietor who hopes to open a retail marijuana business in the City of Fife recently sued that City, which has banned retail marijuana inside City limits. The ACLU and state Attorney General Bob Ferguson have weighed in on the side of the proprietor. The outcome of the case could have important ramifications for Auburn. Should the council extend the moratorium to wait and see what happens in the Fife case, Heid said, there’s no telling how long the case could linger in court. And a court could rule that the City is merely stretching the process out indefinitely to avoid taking action, a tactic that courts have shot down in other jurisdictions. Recently the City asked the state Liquor Control Board permission to deny a permit request as long as the moratorium was in effect. On Monday, Mayor Nancy Backus got the answer, as follows: “The Liquor Control Board cannot support denial of the application based on a local moratorium.” An additional moratorium, Heid cautioned, may make no difference to the state. “The voters voted for this, and we need a reasonable time to implement it,” said Councilmember Largo Wales. The City could choose to extend the ordinance up to six months, with the proviso that it would expire whenever the council adopts its ordinance. If the City chooses not to act on the ordinance on Tuesday, it will have to extend the moratorium at its Sept. 15 meeting, because the ordinance, which expires Sept. 16, cannot be effective until the moratorium expires, said Kevin Snyder, Community Development and Public Works director.

Yes, the Evergreen State is home to a diverse group of residents.

If you have kids in school, you should have received a letter from the state telling you that your particular school district is failing. That’s not really true, but thanks to the state Legislature and the stubborn state teachers union, most school districts in our state don’t meet the requirements of the federal No Child Left Behind act. The act requires that all students pass state reading and math tests. The state sought a waiver, but teachers balked at the requirement that test scores be part of their evaluation process. Having all students pass reading and math tests might be achievable, but given the funds our state allocates to education and the reluctance of voters to OK more money for schools, it isn’t going to happen. It’s not that all kids can’t learn. It’s just that all kids don’t learn at the same pace. If you remember your school days, you’ll recall that some students zipped through the daily lessons and got top grades at the end of the school year. Others – most of us – did OK in the classroom, passed the tests and got our diploma. The rest of the students essentially crashed and burned. In all likelihood, those kids just needed more time. But time costs money. Not all parents can afford private tutoring for their kids. So, if it’s important that students pass reading and math tests – and the feds say it is – then we need to give schools more money to provide that extra time and instruction. The Legislature already faces a state court order to adequately fund education. Lawmakers could reallocate state money from other state programs and agencies. But that only hobbles the state’s efforts to provide other needed services. Doing things right takes money. The Legislature – and taxpayers – need to consider what that really means. And then step up to the task and do it.

picnic drew more than 120 people to the Renton Community Center. Fain and Sullivan were awarded for policy, residents are still free to speak the language of their choosing, but will also benefit from an added incentive to learn English. That English proficiency can lead to a 30 percent increase in income, contributing to a better life for the immigrant population and an improved economic outlook for the state. Best of all, declaring English the official language is a measure that is widely supported by citizens of all backgrounds. A Rasmussen Reports poll conducted on Aug. 9-10 found that 83 percent of Americans support the policy, and an even more overwhelming 94 percent believe English proficiency is important to succeed in the United States. While policymakers may believe they are benefiting Washington’s immigrant population by providing
their roles with a bipartisan effort to help people with developmental disabilities. COURTESY PHOTO, Kristin Atkinson
native language translations, reality could not be further from the truth. Diversity is an asset, and we should respect the linguistic and cultural differences among residents of the United States. But without a common factor to unite us in our diversity, we remain divided. I encourage the Washington State Legislature to take action this year and send a message to all residents that we are united through a common, shared language, English. Mauro E. Mujica is the chairman of U.S. English, Inc., one of the nation’s oldest and largest nonpartisan citizens’ action groups dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States. Founded in 1983 by the late Sen. S.I. Hayakawa of California, U.S. English, Inc. (www.usenglish.org) has more than 1.8 million members.

In response to the City of Pacific as it ponders over I-502. As a Boy Scout, I took an oath to be clean, and to me that means to be free of drugs in my body and keep my mind fit. City of Pacific, please ban marijuana businesses from my community. – Lee Vandeberg, Life Scout, Troop 401
The high cost of water This is not my first letter on this subject but a continuation of my feelings on this matter. I have repeatedly written Mayor Nancy Backus regarding this matter, and I get an explanation but nothing to my satisfaction. Just double-talk. I even went so far as to ask her if a special dispensation could be made or maybe she and the City Council could pass a special ordinance, whereby during the “hot blistering” summer months the water rates could be reduced
so as to allow us residents to water our yards and plants and not receive an enormous water bill. Am I the only one in Auburn that is angry about a high water bill and the added charges each and every month? Mayor Nancy said that much to her chagrin her husband would allow her to water their front lawn but not the back – because of the cost perhaps? I have to laugh at that. Actually, in addition to paying these water rates, I would like to know where all this money is going. Again, no explanation. Multiply the added charges by all the households in Auburn, and that amounts to a lot of revenue each month. Is our money going to repair the roads in this town? I think not. Is our money going to build a new community center? Perhaps, that may be it. Just as an example and my last word on this: on a $136.55 bill, only $40.32 was for water consumption, which means $96.23 was for other. I’m really tired of paying for other charges, and I would hope that you all out there are, too.

Terreno purchases property for $9.5M STAFF REPORTS
Elsewhere
Terreno Realty Corporation recently acquired an industrial property in Auburn for a purchase price of approximately $9.5 million, according to the Wall Street Journal. The property, 1307 West Valley Highway N., includes a 92,000-squarefoot industrial distribution building on 7.8 acres adjacent to Highway 167. The property provides 15 dock-high and seven grade-level loading positions and is 78-percent leased to five tenants. Terreno Realty Corporation is an acquirer, owner and operator of industrial real estate in six major coastal U.S. markets. To learn more, visit www. terreno.com.
Amazon is hiring for more than 350 full-time positions with benefits starting on day one at its fulfillment center in Sumner. Amazon is hiring in order to meet growing customer demand. Last week, Amazon’s newest fulfillment center in nearby Kent reached a construction milestone with the installation of massive wall panels. Interested candidates can apply at www.workatamazonfulfillment.com. ... Cascade’s White River Lake Tapps improvement projects are under way. Over the next few weeks homeowners will notice more changes and should take note of their local conditions in determining what actions they need to take related to their homes, docks and water craft. In July, Cascade filled the lake to its highest allowable level (elevation 543 feet) and closed the project headgate. No water has been added to the lake since then (other than rainfall) and Cascade has minimized water released through the tailrace to keep the lake as full as possible throughout the summer. Weather dependent, it is expected that recreational lake levels will be maintained through Labor Day.
THE CITY OF AUBURN’S Solid Waste & Recycling Department presents a free screening of the movie “Trashed” at 6 p.m. Sept. 25, part of the Auburn Sustainability Movie Night. The film will be shown at the Auburn Riverside
OFF AND RUNNING
After nearly 20 years of funding and planning imbroglios, $4.1 million worth of improvements to Stewart Road in the City of Pacific is under way. Plans call for widening of the much-used thoroughfare – the main access road from state Route 167 to the Lakeland Hills subdivision, and a vital arterial that provides truck access to industrial and trucking businesses in Pacific and Sumner – from the SR 167 interchange to Valentine Avenue. There will be two driving lanes in each direction, and a two-way, middle turn lane.
High School Theatre, 501 Oravetz Road. Prior to the movie, light refreshments will be served, informational tables will be available and door prizes awarded. The film will be followed by a panel discussion of local experts, including
Curbs, gutters and sidewalks will be installed, signals upgraded and new water main and sewer pipe laid. At its inception in 1996, the project was to be part of the planned, four-phase, Lake Tapps Parkway-Stewart Road corridor. Breaking ground for the Valentine Avenue-Stewart Road project in Pacific are, from left: Rick Maurstad (ICON), Pacific Mayor Leanne Guier; Pacific City Councilmembers Clint Steiger and John Jones; Ted Hill, Sumner city engineer; and Sumner City Councilmember Kathy Hayden.

A large gathering takes in the commons at the new Auburn High School. The $110 million, three-story, red brick school replaces the 64-year-old high school. Classes open Wednesday. RACHEL CIAMPI, Auburn Reporter standpoint, where the former school had 87 security-problematic access points, its replacement has only two entries, which will lock after school starts for the day. The school has closed-circuit security cameras to monitor what goes on. Students will be moving from the old campus to the new, less-secure campus throughout the day for the first year, but after construction is completed on the new gymnasium and music building in 2015, the building can then be locked down tight as a drum.
For teachers and students alike, Newman said, it will be much more pleasant to be in the new building, which allows much greater temperature control than the old school, tied as it was to gasping, wheezing, dying boilers, hot on cold days, hot on hot days, and prone to breaking down and leaving students and teachers shivering in the cold. And no, Newman was quick to point out, boilers from the old school are not among the legacy items. “No, we let them take those
away, recycle the old materials. Who knows though, maybe there’ll be a nostalgia room where people who want to can suffer the ill effects of the old campus boiler,” Newman joked. “This building is gorgeous, I don’t even know where to start,” said AHS Principal Richard Zimmerman. “We’re completely wireless in the building. We’re the most technologically advanced building in the state right now because of the facilities, the technology involved. It’s going to be a great place for kids.”

I can’t think of a better person to have been Auburn’s first poet laureate.” Jessie Brugger, an awardwinning artist who lives in New York City, had this to say about her dad, a former Franciscan priest and the founder of Auburn Youth Resources. “Besides being a man who has dedicated much of his life to the people and community of Auburn, my father is a poet. My father is very much in tune with people. He loves people. He cares. I am influenced by his writing because he does not hide blemishes. He accepts and honors people for who they are.

The power of the human face is incredible to me. So many stories. So much can be expressed in the face, in a gesture, in a glance, in lines. I am interested in stories, but in a visual, non-verbal way.” Raised in Auburn, Jessie Brugger recently earned a master’s degree in fine arts from The New York Academy of Art.

Stryker Phd roars to win Longacres Mile FOR THE REPORTER
Stryker Phd reached the pinnacle of Northwest racing Sunday afternoon, exploding from last place for a half-length victory over Boyett in the 79th running of the $200,000 Longacres Mile (Grade 3) for 3-year-olds and up at Emerald Downs. Ridden by Leslie Mawing at 121 pounds, Stryker Phd ran one mile in 1:33.79 – the fifth fastest
winning time in 19 runnings at Emerald Downs – and paid $4.60, $3.20 and $2.60. Larry Ross is the winning trainer for owners Jim and Mona Hour of Bellevue. Boyett, a Southern California shipper ridden by Agapito Delgadillo at 117 pounds, held on gamely to finish second and paid $8.80 and $6. Twistgrips, a 24-to-1 long shot ridden by Amadeo Perez at 115 pounds, flew late to finish third
and paid $9.40. Scat Daddybaby, who blazed through fractions of :22.52, :44.83 and 1:08.42, finished fourth, and was followed by Shooting Jacket, Mr. Bowling, Prohibition, Disruption, Dontmesswithkitten, Jebrica, Mysterious Soul and Title Contender. A 5-year-old gelding by Bertrando-Striking Scholar, Stryker Phd is the 20th Washington-bred to win the Longacres Mile, and
the first since Noosa Beach in 2010. In fact, the top three finishers were all bred in the Northwest – Stryker Phd in Washington, Boyett in Oregon, and Twistgrips in British Columbia. Stryker Phd was the 6-to-5 betting favorite, entering the race off stakes record performances in the one-mile Budweiser Handicap and 1 1/16-mile Mt. Rainier [ more MILE page 12 ]

Handicap. And as usual, the gelding had no early speed, dropping back to last place, 15 lengths behind, as Scat Daddybaby smoked to the lead followed by Disruption, Dontmesswithkitten and Boyett. Then, in a move that’s become his norm, Stryker Phd rallied boldly on the last turn, inhaling foes with a sweeping wide move and reached the fore with a furlong to run. From there, he drifted out a bit, but had plenty left to hold off Boyett. “We knew there was going to be a lot of speed, so I let him break on his own,” Mawing said. “I wanted to be in a comfortable position, but I didn’t expect to be in last. We were going nice and easy. When we got to the backside, there were probably still 10 to 12 lengths still in front of me. I knew they were going fast and we were in a good stride, so for sure they were going to come back to me. “I gave him a few taps at the threeeighths pole and he picked it up really nice. He was picking off horses one by one. I got them about the eighth-pole and we took the lead. I don’t know what startled him, but he looked at the crowd and heard the crowd and started to slow down. We went from about forty-five miles an hour to about 35 miles an hour in about a second. He kind of concerned me, but I had the momentum already.” Stryker Phd is undefeated in three starts this year and Sunday’s win, worth $110,000, pushed his 2014 ledger to 3-30-0 with earnings of $165,000. Overall, Stryker Phd is 5-4-4 in 16 starts with earnings of $292,751. That total includes a $40,000 check for finishing second to Herbie D in last year’s Longacres Mile. This year, Stryker Phd got the first
STOPSHOPPINGDEBBIE WINS EMERALD DISTAFF: It wasn’t easy, but undefeated Stopshoppingdebbie showed her class Sunday with a three-quarter-length victory over stable mate Goin to the Window in the $65,000 Emerald Distaff for older fillies and mares at Emerald Downs. Ridden by Rocco Bowen at a stakes record 124 pounds, Stopshoppingdebbie ran 1 1/8 miles in 1:47.45 and paid $2.40, $2.10 and $2.10. Tom Wenzel is the trainer for owner-breeder Northwest Farms. The victory improved Stopshoppingdebbie to 9-for-9 overall, and the $35,750 winner’s share increased her earnings to $247,023. Wenzel and owner Jerre Paxton (Northwest Farms) have discussed a California campaign this fall, but said Stopshoppingdebbie first had to clear Sunday’s hurdle. prize. “It was a good race,” Mawing added. “I have to give all the kudos to the horse. He was working great in the morning. We’ve been training him to finish strong in the lane, and he ran accordingly.” For Mawing, the meet’s dominant rider with 80 wins and nine stakes wins, it was his first Mile triumph in seven attempts. “It’s a great feeling to win my first Mile,” Mawing said. “I’ve been here since the opening year, and this race has always been eluding me. The best I’ve run in The Mile before was a fourth, so this is just fantastic.” For Ross, it was the trainer’s second Mile win and very similar to his first

Like Stryker Phd, Chum Salmon was a 5-yearold gelding when he rallied from last to win the 1985 Longacres Mile. “It really did remind me of Chum Salmon,” Ross said. “More than I expected, but the pace was pretty hot. That’s just his style. You’re not going to change it.”
