Demand rises as vacancies shrink in local rental housing market

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

There’s good, not so good, and downright scary news on the rental housing front.

On the sunny side, Steven Norman, executive director of the King County Housing Authority, told City officials Monday at Auburn City Hall, the recent expansion of the regional economy has kicked up the demand for housing.

As of Monday, vacancy rates across the region were down to 3.8 percent, and they are expected to keep dropping, Norman said. In the AuburnEnumclaw housing market, apartment vacancies are down to a paltry 1.9 percent, a statistically insignificant number, housing experts say.

In 2014, rental rates have risen about 6.3 percent, and in 2015 they are projected to jump more than 5 percent.

That number doesn’t even factor in high-end construction projects now in the pipeline. [ more HOUSING page 3 ]

with about a new model that looks like a more permanent solution,” Dana Hinman, communications director for the City of Auburn, said Monday.

From an early age, Madeleine Gasperi knew she was destined to write.

“I’ve always written,” the 16-yearold Auburn High School junior said. “It’s funny, I started off writing for the Good Ol’ Days contest in the second grade. And I won that and thought, ‘I must be good at this.’ So I decided to keep writing.”

For Gasperi, a self-published author of juvenile fiction books “I Have Two Dads: Different Types of Families” and “Knock It Off! Anti-bullying: The Young Adult Picture Book”, just writing stories wasn’t enough.

City optimistic that Public Health clinic will be saved

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

The City of Auburn doesn’t have a solution yet that would keep the Public Health clinic in Auburn open.

But amidst ongoing talks with potential partners, none of them named, optimism reigns, and word around City Hall is that something will be worked out before King County can close the clinic at the end of the year.

If not with King County, then via a partnership or partnerships with local medical organizations.

King County Flood Control Board approves grant for Pacific The board of supervisors of the King County Flood Control District on Monday approved a Flood Reduction Fund Grant for the City of Pacific.

Pacific received a $32,000 grant for reimbursement for the opening and closing of City Park. The facility is used for potential flood

“It is important to provide cities with the necessary resources to implement flood prevention projects to protect their communities,” said Flood Control District Supervisor Pete von Reichbauer.

“The funds provided by this program will assist communities in South King County to seek solutions to their flooding issues and pursue sustainable projects.”

Stream rehab continues at levee setback project

[ HOUSING from page 1 ]

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

At a station set up along the Fenster Levee setback project, Laird O’Rollins of the King County Department of Natural Resources neatly summed up what planners and engineers and everyone connected with the stream rehabilitation effort hopes it accomplishes for salmon restoration.

“We want the river to widen out a bit, get a little bit shallower, and a little bit more complex,” Rollins, project manager and lead ecologist for the design of the project, recently told City of Auburn and King County officials and invited guests as they traipsed over the recently completed second phase of the setback project at the Fenster Nature Park. “Really, what we want the bank to do is just kind of lay back.”

The project replaced approximately 520 feet of the existing rock levee along the Green River shoreline with a new, buried rock revetment placed farther away from the river.

Work began in July and ended in midSeptember.

The area of the Fenster Nature Park – between 2nd Street Southeast and 4th Street Southeast – is closed to the public.

The Pacific Coast Salmon Recovery funds provide 50 percent of the total funding for the $631,456 project.

The project reconnects the river to nearly 2½ acres of its historic floodplain and provides for a more natural shoreline,

Chris Andersen, environmental services manager for the City of Auburn, explains the progress made on the Fenster Levee setback project to City and King County officials. ROBERT WHALE, Auburn Reporter while maintaining the existing level of flood protection for neighboring homes, streets and infrastructure.

The project is the final segment of a larger Green River corridor restoration effort extending nearly two miles upstream from the Fenster Nature Park.

This project will: • Enhance and improve habitat for endangered salmon, steelhead and other aquatic species • Improve water quality and increase flood water storage by reconnecting the river to a portion of its historic floodplain • Remove invasive noxious weeds and re-plant more than 4 acres of stream bank and surrounding site with native trees and shrubs • Reestablish riparian forest that will provide shade to maintain the cool water temperatures that fish need to survive.

Unfortunately, wages aren’t keeping pace with these positive trends, particularly with respect to low-wage jobs, senior citizen income and disabled individuals living on fixed benefits.

The upshot is that more than 80 percent of the renter households in King County that earn less than $35,000 a year pay more than 30 percent of their income on rent, Norman said. Thirty percent of an individual’s income, he said, is generally considered the point at which an apartment is affordable. And an increasing number of households in King County are paying more than 50 percent of their income today on rent.

Tied to all those numbers is the 38-percent increase over the last three years in the number of homeless students school districts have reported to the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, or OSPI. “Homeless” doesn’t necessarily mean that those kids are the streets or living in homeless camps.

Regionally, Norman said, schools reported an average of 180 students homeless at some point in the 2013 school year. The Auburn School District reported

Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease or other memory-related illnesses can be very overwhelming. We’re here to help.

219 homeless students. In 2013, the ASD spent more than $560,000 of its educational funds on transportation and cab fares to get homeless kids from where they were to schools.

In King County. more than 6,000 kids are homeless.

“Children living in shelters or five to a room in a motel don’t do well in school,” Norman said. “Kids who are couch surfing don’t get their homework done.

Kids who are living in shelters have other things on their minds than succeeding at school.”

Being homeless, whatever it involves, not only has a drastic effect on a student’s ability to learn but also on his or her future ability to land a job, Norman said.

Today, Norman said, KCHA houses 2,500 kids in Auburn.

To reduce the number of homeless students, KCHA recently opened two new centers in Auburn, one at Burndale Homes in North Auburn and another at Firwood Circle in South Auburn.

The Firwood Circle center offers job training and ESL instruction to connect adults to job-training opportunities.

students from kindergarten age all the way to those in their senior year in high school. Today, the Neighborhood House program has 85 kids, drawn from the housing complex and the surrounding neighborhood.

The program works with local schools and other entities to reduce the number of homeless kids.

“Our goal is to reduce the number of homeless students to zero,” Norman said.

Finally, there’s the issue of health care costs. Norman said the largest single driver of health care costs is care for the elderly.

“The stats in King County are staggering,” Norman said. “By 2025, the number of seniors living in King County will double, one in four people in the county will be over the age of 65, and one in three will be mobility impaired. People will be living longer, but not necessarily in good health.

“What we’re finding is that the next generation is significantly less well off than current generation of retirees, primarily because of the demise of the fixedbenefit pension system.”

[4] October 3, 2014 will put more officers on our streets and in our schools to improve community safety,” said U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan.

“It was a competitive process for grants, and today’s announcement is a tribute to these departments who demonstrated how they will serve their communities.”

The Seattle and Tacoma police departments each receive funding for 10 new officers. Federal Way is funded for four officers, and the cities of Fife and Aberdeen for one officer each.

The Skagit County Sheriff ’s Department was awarded funding for two officers.

The COPS Hiring Program offers grants to state, local and tribal law enforcement agencies to hire or rehire community policing officers.

FOR THE REPORTER

The U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) announced Monday funding awards to seven cities, including Auburn, and counties in the Western District of Washington.

The funding is aimed at creating and, in some cases, protecting 33 law enforcement positions.

Nearly $121 million will be awarded nationally, including $6.2 million for Western Washington.

Auburn is funded for five officers.

The financial stakes of the state’s new marijuana industry are no longer theoretical.

Washington’s chief economist predicts the legal recreational market will generate $636 million for the state through the middle of 2019.

Those millions are already trickling in, and next month the state will make the first payouts from a portion of excise taxes and fees collected from growers, processors and retailers.

That portion – $4 million as of Sept. 22 and $450 million in the economist’s forecast – is sequestered in a special account, not the general fund used to pay for the state’s daily operations.

The initiative specifies how money in that account is to be doled out. Ten percent is for a public education campaign, and 15 percent is for substance abuse prevention programs.

For example, the University of Washington gets a few dollars for operating a website, and the Liquor Control Board, which regulates recreational marijuana, is promised money to cover the myriad costs of overseeing the industry.

But there’s a problem: The initiative directs half the money to the Basic Health Plan, a state health insurance program that no longer exists. It went away with the arrival of the federal health care law.

The treasurer and the governor’s budget folks aren’t sure what to do and have asked Attorney General Bob Ferguson for advice.

Until it comes, they’ll keep those dollars under wraps.

If it turns out that the money is up for grabs, lawmakers will be able to amend the state law to make clear who should get it.

Cities and counties have a suggestion: us.

The ballot measure doesn’t promise local governments a share of marijuana revenue. [ more CORNFIELD page 6 ]

Kudos to City's animal control efforts

Letters policy

Thanks to Bill Peloza and the Municipal Services Committee for their work on animal issues.

Handling animal control is never an easy task, but we can be grateful to people like Bill, John Partridge, our other councilmembers and the many volunteers who have put Auburn at the top of the game with our shelter, animal control and even a new humane society thrift store.

Glad we got this one right.

He placed a mat at the door, and as soon as the dog came into the house, he started turning him in a circle, saying, “Radar, wipe.” He would praise the dog and reward him with a treat.

In a very short time, Radar began literally spinning on the mat. Now the owner reinforces this with a hand signal that looks like stirrin, with his index finger pointed down, then a hand signal to sit, and another hand signal to stay.

Radar stays there while his owner walks around the house for about a minute, gets a treat, and then invites Radar to come with another hand signal.

He says the entire process took less than a week, and this is the third dog he’s taught to do this.

I would also like to thank the Auburn Reporter for including me in your 2014 Best of Auburn chiropractors.

GUEST OPINION

Cost of new medications could bankrupt health care The good news is we are developing new lifesaving medications every day. The bad news is they are very expensive, and paying for them could bankrupt our health care system.

For example, Avastin, which is prescribed to treat a number of cancers, costs $100,000 a year per patient. Soliris, used to treat a rare blood and kidney disor-

der, costs almost $410,000 per year.

The latest medication drawing attention is Sovaldi. While highly effective in curing patients with chronic hepatitis C, it costs about $1,000 a pill, or about $84,000 for a standard 12-week treatment.

Chronic hepatitis C affects 3.2 million people in the United States and about 150 million worldwide.

It is a devastating virus that can be deadly if not treated effectively. It is a blood-borne virus that causes inflammation of the liver, which, if left untreated, can lead to permanent liver damage.

While it can be contracted through accidental needle sticks or long-term kidney dialysis, people most at risk are IV drug users or people who use unlicensed, unclean tattoo, body piercing or acupuncture practitioners. Most

troubling, pregnant women with the disease can pass it on to their unborn babies.

Accurate statistics are difficult to come by because the virus can lie dormant for decades, and experts estimate barely half of those infected have been tested.

Adding to the problem is the fact that many of those infected are unable to pay for their medical care. [ more BRUNNEL page 7 ]

WONDERFUL way to help kids!

[ LETTERS from page 5 ]

Giving thanks to the community Auburn Youth Resources would like to say thank you to the Muckleshoot Tribe for its remarkable gift of $10,000.

The donation was given to AYR during its Back to School Backpack Program.

The program allows lowincome families to prepare for the upcoming school year with the necessities children need to continue their education.

Auburn Walmart donated $500 from its Community Foundation Grant that “Filled the Bus” to help children remain focused on their education. And for that, AYR says thank you.

FORE … all the golfers at AYR’s 19th Annual Fundraising Golf Tournament held at Washington National Golf Course, thank you for your donations on the 14th hole.

Thank you to Zones staff, YMCA members and staff, along with the community members who donated school supplies to AYR’s Back to School program.

Thank you all for the gift of education readiness and the thrill of learning in our community.

Stop the negative campaigning I am writing to call on Congressman Dave Reichert’s liberal opponent,

Jason Ritchie, to stop the smear tactics.

Following his campaign thus far, Ritchie has towed the party line and done little to differentiate himself from the partisan politicians in D.C. that just contribute to the gridlock in Congress.

Ritchie most recently demonstrated this on an episode of the “Jason Rantz Show” on KIRO radio.

When asked what he agrees on with Congressman Reichert, he struggled to answer, ultimately offering “enjoying soccer.” Soccer?

This year alone, Congressman Reichert has passed legislation combatting human trafficking of foster kids and introduced common sense legislation that gives teachers a tax credit for out-of-pocket classroom expenses. Congressman Reichert delivers results, not rhetoric.

The voters can do their own research on their candidates without negative campaigning distorting their positions. As a voter, I ask that Ritchie be honest with us.

A weak salute I cannot be silent any longer. I realize that President Obama has no love for America’s military.

However, when he exited “Marine One” on Sept. 23, he saluted the Marines at the bottom of the stairs with a “Latte Salute.”

What is meant by that is the fact that he did not even

bother to remove the coffee cup from his right hand as he raised it to give the Marines a very weak salute.

To me, this showed a total disdain for our men and women who have given so much for this great country.

Thank God the elections are coming, and American voters can make some very important changes.

Gasperi said one of the aspects of bullying she takes on in her book is the use of terms such as “retard” and the “N-word” to belittle others.

“I can’t even say those words,” she said.

Gasperi’s sentiments are about more than just words she said, with $1 from every book sold going to the “Spread the Word to End the Word” campaign, which seeks to eradicate the use of the word retard.

As a Running Start student, attending classes at Green River Community College part time so she can graduate with an associate's degree at the same time she graduates from Auburn High School. She hopes to write and publish more in the future.

“I love to write. I didn’t think it would be a future. I was so focused on medical school, but this is nice. It lets me donate money to these causes,” she said.

Gasperi said the highlight of her writing career so far has been getting picked up by mega-bookseller Barnes & Noble’s website.

“I’m a 16-year-old girl, so sometimes I Google myself.

I did, and found Madeleine Gasperi and Barnes & Noble. That was pretty exciting for me.”

After graduation, Gasperi said, she hopes to attend medical school, either at the University of Washington or the University of Michigan and continue to make a difference.

“I think success is having strong character and being kind,” she said. “I’m looking forward to making a difference and reaching a goal of understanding.”

Gasperi’s books are available online at Amazon.

“This started out as a Spanish project,” Gasperi said of her first novel, ‘I Have Two Dads’. “I don’t see very many books that include many different types of families. Like there will be a book that includes same-sex parents, but my book is inclusive off all kinds of families, single parents, step-parents, all kinds in between.

“At a young age it’s not something we discuss, but it is something we’re moving toward,” Gasperi said. “And, in order for us to progress as a society, we need to talk about it, and it’s best to start now.”

The initial response to her first book was favorable, Gasperi said.

“The reviews have been all positive. I have a fivestar ranking on Good Reads and Amazon,” Gasperi said. “I was in the top 10 on Amazon last Saturday. I was No. 7 (in juvenile fiction).”

Just a few weeks after publishing “I Have Two Dads”, Gasperi said, she was inspired to write her second book, “Knock It Off ”, about anti-bullying.

“It was spur of the moment. I got down to my computer and just wrote it,” she said. “I wasn’t even thinking about another book, but when you hear all these derogatory terms being said, that inspired ‘Knock It Off.’” Gasperi said the experience of being bullied is universal, but hopes that someday it won’t be.

“I think we all have (been bullied),” Gasperi said. “People say it’s human nature, but that’s not what should be taught. Human decency is what’s important.”

Holy Family connected with iPads FOR THE REPORTER

Good things keep happening at Holy Family Catholic School in Auburn, where students recently received the latest in 21st century technology.

Students are applying Apple iPads to help them and teachers make the most of every learning day, according to Principal Katy Feeney.

The school’s Parent Club raised funds to help pay for the iPads – 50 in all for students and 15 for teachers. The school’s server monitors the activity and student use of the iPads, Feeney said.

Publishers are designing textbooks that are interactive and allow the classroom to extend to vast resources available. For example, with the iPad: • A student can access performances and live rehearsals of major opera and dance companies throughout the world.

• When a child is working on homework, the student and his or her parents can access instructional videos explaining the concepts or process of a mathematical problem.

• There is a vast video library of speeches and original-source news footage.

“An added benefit of the iPad in the classroom is that there are many different ways children learn, and the iPad helps each student learn in the way that best suits them,” Feeney said.

“The parents of Holy Family School sacrifice every day to give their children an excellent education, paying tuition on top of the taxes that support the public schools,” Feeney added. “The iPad program is another way the parents have sacrificed for their children.”

The school hopes to host a technology fair/open house soon to demonstrate some of the activities.

[ CLINIC from page 1 ] “This is at the top of the agenda for Mayor (Nancy) Backus. King County will adopt its budget in midNovember. That makes for a pretty tight timeline, but we are hoping to deliver some good news,” Hinman said.

King County Executive Dow Constantine last week announced a partnership

Jason Fiorito is selling historic Pacific Raceways, a track that features a drag strip and is home to the NHRA Northwest Nationals and local and regional sportsman racers. REPORTER FILE PHOTO

Pacific Innovation Center (PIC) received the Washington State Department of Commerce’s designation as a “Project of Statewide Significance” (PSS).

In the history of the state, only two other projects have been so cited: Boeing’s 777 composite wing project in Everett; and BMW’s composite body manufacturing facility in Moses Lake. The automotive-based tech campus seeks to use the road course as a testing ground and to form partnerships with state research facilities and neighboring cities to attract global leaders in the renewable energy driven vehicle industry.

“PIC will create hundreds of clean-tech jobs, and produce accelerated automotive innovation, while establishing Washington State as the international hub in this arena,” Fiorito said.

development that calls for 1.2 million square feet of commercial space for technology-based and racing related industry.

Boasting a dedicated interchange to State Route 18 between Kent and Auburn, it represents one of the last large parcels available for commercial development in the county.

Would the family sell to a residential developer?

“We believe the highest and best use of the property is the continuation of the racing operation and the commercial development surrounding it,” Fiorito said. “The housing market, in general, doesn’t compete very well with the commercial market. We believe very strongly that the potential buyers are going to be very

interested in maintaining the racing operations and developing the commercial real estate around the racing operations that provides a pretty decent magnet for tenants for those types of commercial developments.”

“The City of Auburn is greatly appreciative of the Fiorito family and the presence of a top-tier racetrack in the greater Auburn area,” said Auburn Mayor Nancy Backus. “We have been the longtime beneficiary of its economic impact and look forward to future opportunities for expansion. Auburn is ready to work with a new ownership group, preserving both the legacy of the past with anticipation of what is ahead.”

In April 2014, the planned development known as

The motorsports park east of Kent was built in 1959 by Dan Fiorito Sr., who owned a heavy highway construction company, with the idea of having a safer venue for racers and local youth to push the limits.

The track opened on July 4, 1960, with drag racing legend and local racer Dick Kalivoda winning the inaugural race with his

with the City of Federal Way to keep the Federal Way Public Health Center open, despite declining federal and state funding.

Thanks to wage concessions

by Public Health employees that should result in savings during the 2015-2016 budget, and additional funding from the City of Federal Way, the clinic there gets to stay open for at least the

next two years.

Auburn’s clinic serves 11,000 people a year, not only from Auburn but from nearby communities like Pacific, Algona and Black Diamond.

The proposed budget recently introduced by Constantine is King County’s first biennial budget for all county agencies, including those contained within

the County General Fund.

After the budget is adopted, it will be updated as needed over the two-year period.

The King County Council’s review of the county budget started Wednesday, when the budget committee heard from the county’s separately elected officials on their proposed budgets.

Long history

B-Modified roadster. The track has hosted thousands of drag race, road race and motocross events.

The 2.25-mile road course was a staple on the USAC circuit in the 1960s and ’70s, hosting a who’s who of American and international sports car racing stars. Team Penske won its first professional race at Pacific Raceways, and NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Sr. won one of the track’s last professionally-sanctioned road course events under the Winston West banner in 1985.

The family leased the track to various promoters beginning in the 1970s, who operated the track under the name Seattle International Raceway. The family took operation of the track back in January 2002, and changed the name back to Pacific Raceways.

It has hosted an NHRA national event for 27 straight years.

Pacific Raceways has been an economic engine

in South King County for more than a half-century, and neighboring cities hope that potential buyers continue that tradition.

“While I am saddened to learn the Fiorito family will no longer have ownership of Pacific Raceways, it is my hope that the new buyers will follow their predecessor by continuing a strong partnership with neighboring cities like Kent,” said Kent Mayor Suzette Cooke. “Jason Fiorito has consistently kept the City of Kent informed of potential changes at the track and major events that they have hosted over the years.

“Kent hoteliers and restaurateurs have benefited from events at Pacific Raceways for many years as people from all over the United States choose to stay and eat in Kent,” she added.

“Best wishes to the Fiorito family in all future endeavors, and thank you for being a friend to Kent.”

CBRE and Corporate Finance Associates (CFA) is marketing the venue, which is being listed for the first time in 54 years.

Fiorito explained his family’s decision.

“My family has held this asset and done an admirable job of maintaining it at a club level, and we’ve worked very well with King County to title the place and get it ready for commercial development, but we simply don’t have the resources to develop this property,” Fiorito said during a followup phone interview. “The region really deserves a first-class racetrack and the commercial development here geared towards the renewable-energy-vehicle industry and the tech campus that’s envisioned for Pacific Innovation Center.

“We’ve teed it up very, very well for someone to come in and take over,” Fiorito continued. “That really allows the region to receive all the benefits from a first-class racing facility paired with a tech campus that accelerates renewalenergy-driven-vehicle technology, setting the stage for development of a commercial racing and testing facility.”

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.

When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.

The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet.

Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

To m a k e a f i r e w o o d complaint, call 360-9021857. agr.wa.gov/inspection/ WeightsMeasures/Fire woodinformation.aspx agr.wa.gov/inspection/WeightsMeasures/Firewoodinformation.aspx
