Frontier works to restore services Repair crews splice cables around the clock in downtown Redmond

SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com

Since a construction crew cut through fiber and copper cables on Sept. 20 and disrupted Frontier Communications FiOS and copper services to residents and businesses, one of the questions being asked is how it happened.

The question has not been answered yet, but IMCO General Construction — whose crew cut through the cables while working on the Redmond Way Stormwater Treatment Facility project — is working on it.

ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com

Frontier Communications repair crews continued to splice copper wires on Thursday to restore voice and hi-speed Internet services to the remaining customers in the areas of Northeast 80th and 87th streets, Redmond Way and the Cleveland Street corridor.

At the Reporter’s deadline, crews worked diligently underground and were 80 percent finished in those areas as noted on Frontier’s update webpage (http:// outage.frontier.com/ Redmond-2014-09-20).

Frontier listed a possible completion by last night.

Yesterday was day 13 of the outage that hit on the morning of Sept. 20, when an IMCO General Construction crew cut through fiber and copper cables and disrupted phone, television, hispeed Internet and some 911 services. Originally, about 6,000 FiOS and copper customers were affected. Frontier restored 911 services on Sept. 21 and FiOS services on Sept. 24.

More than 1,200 Redmond customers were minus copper services

IMCO, City of Redmond investigate outage Ashley Kimberley, the company’s spokesperson, said one of their priorities after the cables were cut was to work with Frontier to get service restored as quickly as possible, but another priority has been to investigate the situation to see how it happened.

In a previous report, City of Redmond Public Works Director Linda De Boldt said the crew was excavating a trench and installing a storm drainpipe. In that report, De Boldt said “it was a mistake, the contractors hit cables.” [ more IMCO page 7 ]

ANDY NYSTROM, Redmond Reporter as of Sept. 24, but that number has significantly dwindled as workers notched 100 percent restoration on Education Hill, west of Avondale Road, Northeast 83rd Street/161st Avenue Northeast and 168th Avenue Northeast.

Frontier’s West Region Vice President of Engineering Brian Peterson and General Manager Bret Larsen surveyed

the repair scene at the corner of Bear Creek Parkway and Redmond Way last Friday afternoon. Peterson noted that crews were working 24 hours a day to restore the nine cables.

“Progress is being made. It’s going to take us some time, but we’re going to get it done,” Peterson said at that time.

“We are working with the local business

community to gain on-site access that may be necessary to test and validate network restoration. This continues to be a community effort, requiring the dedication, cooperation and assistance of everyone involved,” said Vicky Oxley, Frontier vice president and general manager for Washington state. [ more OUTAGE page 8 ]

The man believed to have been the driver in a single vehicle accident Sept. 19 on Simonds Road in Kirkland was actually one of the passengers, according to the Kirkland Police Department.

Redmond High School graduate and Kenmore resident Kyle J. Reel, 49, died at the scene of the crash where he was initially thought to have been the driver. His body was found in the front of the car, but it was later discovered he had been sitting in the back and

was thrown forward during the crash, according to police.

It is also believed that Dave Zielinski, one of the fisherman on the boat Time Bandit, featured on Discovery Channel’s “Deadliest Catch,” was also a passenger in the vehicle at the time of the accident.

The investigation also showed the car was going roughly 80-90 mph when it crashed into an embankment driving northwest, up the hill.

Police stated they plan to file charges against the driver within a week. [ more CRASH page 7 ]

Local costume store closing after 33 years SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com

Pacific Northwest Costume in Redmond has been serving the community and giving people the opportunity to dress up for 33 years.

The store was started by Sherrill Taylor and Annetta Knight and is now owned solely by Taylor. But come next month, Pacific Northwest Costume will be closing its doors for good.

Taylor, a longtime Redmond resident who now lives in Kirkland, said the reasons for the closure are twofold.

The first reason Pacific Northwest Costume is closing is because after the store moved from its location at 16129 Redmond Way in downtown to its current location at 16134 N.E. 87th St. in 2010 — the third location in the store’s history — customers had thought the store had gone out of business, not that it had just moved.

Because of this, the store saw a drop in sales.

In addition, Taylor said more and more people are turning to the Internet for their costuming needs and

are relying on brick-andmortar stores less and less — also contributing to the store’s declining sales.

While these are the main reasons Pacific Northwest Costume are closing, Taylor also added that she is ready to try something new.

“I need a new adventure,” she said.

That adventure will still be in the industry as Taylor will be working as a sales representative for some of the costume lines she sells in her store.

VARYING COSTUMING NEEDS

Taylor, who studied illustration and graphic design at California State University, Fullerton, and Knight first came to work together as they were neighbors in California. Taylor said her former business partner had a background in costume design, while she — Taylor — had her art background and retail experience.

In creating custom costumes, Taylor said it was not as difficult as she thought it would be going from creating the two-dimensional art

she was accustomed to in school to creating threedimensional work.

Some of that work has included creating the costumes for the City of Bellevue’s Pedestrian Safety Bee as well as the fruits and vegetables for the state’s 5 A Day program. Taylor said they have also worked with local theater groups such as the Bellevue Youth Theatre and SecondStory Repertory in Redmond Town Center.

In addition to meeting people’s costuming needs, Taylor said she has also helped girls and women with cancer find the right wigs as they go through chemotherapy, adding that she has also gotten the occasional male patient coming in to purchase a mohawk or mullet wig.

Taylor said this has been one of the most rewarding parts of her career in the costuming industry as she is part of helping people forget their illnesses.

“Just for a minute, you can be somebody else,” she said.

Taylor said while her lease is through the end of the year, she believes her

store will be closed by the end of November.

During her 33 years of business, Taylor said the costuming industry has changed. When she first started, more people rented costumes, but when packaged costumes became more readily available, people turned to buying.

Now people are trying to be more eco-friendly and renting has again become a popular option, Taylor said.

And with the store closing, Taylor is now selling those costumes that in the past were just for rent.

“All these things that were created are going up for sale,” she said.

A BITTERSWEET GOODBYE

Taylor said closing her store comes with mixed emotions. Her favorite memories in the store have been getting to know so many wonderful Redmond residents and young theater students — some of whom have brought their children to the store as they’ve gotten older.

As much as she will cherish these memories, Taylor said they are what makes it difficult to close her store.

She said she will really miss the people she has met in

Sherrill Taylor of Pacific Northwest Costume is ready to move on to her next adventure. SAMANTHA PAK, Redmond Reporter the last 33 years.

Johnna Masterson, one of Taylor’s family members who has helped out around the store over the years, said Taylor will also be missed.

She said Taylor has always put the store — and those inside, both employees and customers — first.

“She’s like everybody’s mom,” Masterson said.

But now that the store is closing, she said Taylor will now have more time to spend time with her family

and do things she never had time to do before, such as take a vacation. But knowing this does not make things easier for Masterson.

“We know (Taylor) needs to move forward…but at the same time, (the store is) such a huge, long-term part of our lives,” she said.

And as the end of Pacific Northwest Costume nears, Taylor said she would like to thank the greater Redmond community for all the support she has received since the beginning.

Question of the week:

Vote online: redmond-reporter.com

Last week’s poll results: “Were you affected by the Frontier Internet, phone and TV outages?”

Lessons to be learned from Frontier outage

John Marchione

On Sept. 20, a contractor hired by the city to excavate on Redmond Way for a stormwater treatment project cut through Frontier Communications infrastructure. Severing the fiber optic and copper wire communications cables resulted in losing phone, cable, Internet and credit- and debit-card service throughout most of downtown Redmond as well as in other areas in the city. Since that time, the city and Frontier are working diligently to evaluate the damage, expedite repairs and restore service to residential and business customers.

I know this event is demoralizing for our businesses who use Frontier. The severed lines have prevented payment systems and ATMs from effective debit- and credit-card transactions. The disruption is particularly devastating for companies that rely on phone service to conduct business. While substantial levels of service were restored by the middle of the week, numerous businesses and residents continued to feel the impact of losing service.

Portions of the city’s water supply and wastewater management systems and a few of our fire stations that are linked over the communications network were left stranded, as well. The city immediately established work-arounds so MAYOR’S COLUMN

that sewers didn’t back up, clean water continued to flow and fire trucks were dispatched in a timely manner.

Fully evaluating and assessing responsibility for the excavation error will take time and cooperation among many parties. We recognize that many people were affected by the service outage. While some were inconvenienced, others experienced significant economic disruptions. We understand the desire to address these impacts and have been working to help cut through the red tape and streamline the process for those who need to file claims. Individuals seeking to begin the claims process for losses as a result of service interruption can contact

Redmond’s Risk Management Office at (425) 556-2188.

Are there lessons to be learned from this incident? Absolutely. I have listened as community members have shared their challenges and frustrations, as well as their fervent thanks that things weren’t worse. Once service is fully restored, I have directed my staff to debrief so we can evaluate the city’s response, identify areas for improvement and implement changes.

I care deeply about our community and am committed to ensuring that our infrastructure and actions support Redmond’s vibrancy and resiliency.

There have been several letters in the Redmond Reporter critical of the rechanneling of 166th Avenue Northeast. I, for one, very much like the change, for these reasons: 1. The bike lanes make it vastly safer to ride a bike up and down this street. Previously, a bike rider had to choose between illegally riding on the sidewalk or risking life and limb out in the regular lanes. I use these lanes to commute to work every day.

2. The center turn lane makes it much easier to make a left turn onto 166th. Previously, I had to wait for a window in the traffic going in both directions, which can take frustratingly long. Now, I can pull into the center lane and afterward merge into the regular lane.

3. The barriers are necessary to prevent people from illegally driving several blocks down the turn lane, which would nullify the turn lane’s usefulness.

Thanks, Redmond Planning Department, for this improvement!

Let’s help preserve the world’s green places I’d like to go into the breeding and conservation of endangered species.

It saddens me to know that so many animal species have declining populations and may one day go extinct. That is why I hope to contribute to their continued existence by one day working at a facility that concentrates on preserving these marvelous creatures.

I know that the ultimate goal of some of these

places is to reintroduce these animals back into the wild, buoying the existing populations and hopefully saving them so that generations to come may see these animals in the wild, where they have previously lived for thousands of years. But, where in the wild will we put the animals if their habitats are destroyed by human activities?

That is why I urge everyone to do their utmost to preserving the world’s green places, so that I may achieve my ultimate dream. Each of you only have to do a little bit to help, such as turning off lights when you leave the room, unplugging appliances, taking shorter showers or forgoing your lawns in the dry season. These actions can not only save you money, they can save the world, and they can give me hope that I may one day accomplish my dream.

Recent letter writer is incorrect on I-594 I noticed Diane Meehl’s letter concerning Initiative 594 in the Sept. 12 edition of the Redmond Reporter.

She claims that the initiative respects the Second Amendment rights of gun owners but is incorrect.

I’ve read the initiative, all 18 unfortunate pages.

The initiative only appears to respect the rights of gun owners but actually denies those rights over the long term. It specifically allows safety training only for those under 18 years old. Most current safety training for adults, including classes that I have been teaching for over 10 years, would not be allowed.

Someone who wants to purchase a firearm, even for hunting, would have to pay for it and take delivery of it before they could handle it to see if it fits their needs.

Diane’s examples of on-line gun sales and the “gun-show loophole” are used to impress those unfamiliar with the real numbers on accidents and crime rates, which have been falling steadily for the past 20 years.

We would be better served by voting for Initiative 591, which supports national standards, than by this measure, which would create new felonies without inconveniencing criminals in the least.

Martin Morehouse, Bothell

Some statistics on I-594 are intended to confuse I write in response to letters that are coming in opposing Initiative 594, the measure that would require background checks on all gun purchases. In order to drive a car, a person needs to pass a test and make sure their eyesight is good. I feel safer knowing that. I recognize that there will unfortunately still be accidents and there will still be drivers that break the law. As for guns, I know that there will still be accidents and people that break the law, but I will feel safer knowing that a background check was done on every gun purchased. In the upcoming weeks, you will surely be inundated with all kinds of statistics — some accurate, some not. Many are intended to confuse and misguide you. It’s the same reason that I-591 is simultaneously on the ballot. If you feel the need to vote based on the presented statistics, please consider the source and confirm the accuracy.

Otherwise, make your choice based on what makes you and your family feel safer.

Please take note that I-594 will not deny guns to people who are competent owners, only to those who pose a risk.

to be a high school teacher, said she sees Students for Students as an after-school program that would meet about once a week. She wants the program to be a place where the students can come together, connect with each other and form a community.

Wiggins said she hopes her program will help get rid of some of the stigmas and stereotypes that come with homelessness.

“These are people with lives and stories,” she said.

Wiggins includes young people in foster care in her program as well because she said it is easy for them to go from one state to the other. For example, she said, once a young person turns 18, they are out of the state system. And if they do not have a place to go once this happens, they can become homeless.

Redmond schools to participate in Walk to School Day next week

Mayor John Marchione greets a student during a past Walk to School Day event. File Photo City of Redmond elementary school kids will welcome fall by participating in International Walk to School Day on Wednesday, (Norman Rockwell Elementary School will participate on Tuesday).

Students and their families, teachers and community leaders, including Redmond Mayor John Marchione, will join schools from around the nation and the world to celebrate walking and biking to school.

Walk to School Day is an internationally recognized event that celebrates the benefits of active transportation by encouraging school children to walk and

bike to school. City officials join in the celebration by urging families to leave their cars at home that day and walk their kids to school.

“Walking to school gives families the chance to connect with friends and neighbors, keeping us involved in our community,” said Marchione. “It also provides opportunity to stay in shape.”

With issues ranging from childhood obesity to environmental pollution to rising fuel prices, families are starting to rethink how they travel, including the daily trip to school.

This year the City of Redmond is also kicking off the Redmond SchoolPool pilot program at Horace Mann and Norman Rockwell elementary schools. The goal of the Redmond SchoolPool is to reduce traffic while giving students a healthy, fun and safe way to get to school.

Families are matched with other students through an online system so they can travel together via bike buddies, walking school buses or by forming multi-family carpools in order to earn rewards.

Walk to School events

work to create safer routes for walking and bicycling and emphasize the importance of issues such as increasing physical activity among children, pedestrian safety, traffic congestion, concern for the environment and building connections between families, schools and the broader community.

Walk to School Day is expected to take place in all 50 states this year, encompassing more than 5,000 schools across the country and more than 40 countries around the world.

Local residents who join their kids to participate in Walk to School Day this year are taking steps towards creating a safe and more walkable Redmond.

“Whatever the motivation,” Marchione said, “Walk to School Day boils down to families and community.”

For information about traffic safety around schools, contact Susan Byszeski, Traffic Safety Specialist, at sbyszeski@ redmond.gov. For information about the Redmond SchoolPool Pilot Program contact Caroline Chapman at ckchapman@redmond. gov.

said, she said she hopes to start holding meetings in November.

“I have this month of October to nail everything down,” she said.

In addition to helping the local homeless youth community, Wiggins said she chose to start Students for Students in Redmond because she feels she did

not get as involved in the community while she was in high school as she would have liked. This program is her way of giving back to the place that raised her.

• Eric Emil Lehtinen, a 38-year-old Redmond resident who is accused of injecting his son with heroin, had his Sept.

25 case-setting hearing continued to Oct. 2 at the King County Courthouse, after the Reporter’s deadline.

The AWB is Washington state’s primary advocate for the small business community and supports local private sector employers.

Groups that emphasize job creation and economic growth have consistently supported Hussey in his candidacy for the State House of Representatives. Hussey was first endorsed by the AWB during his 2012 campaign for having a platform that highlighted the importance of small business owners and deregulation.

Lehtinen pleaded not guilty to the charge of first-degree attempted murder at his arraignment on Oct. 10, 2013 at the King County Courthouse.

Lehtinen’s son, who was 4 at the time of the Sept. 24, 2013 incident, was released from Seattle Children’s Hospital in October.

The man remains in the King County Jail in Seattle with bail set at $3 million. If convicted, he could face at least 15 years in prison.

A memorial for Redmond High School graduate and Kenmore resident Kyle J. Reel grows at the site of a car crash that took his life in Kirkland. MATT PHELPS, Kirkland Reporter

[ IMCO from page 1] Kimberley said the construction crew believed the communication line they were digging around and had cut was abandoned, but they were wrong and so IMCO is looking into the chain of events that led to this misunderstanding.

“In 36 years of business, we’ve never been involved in this kind of situation where a mistake has affected a community in this way,”

Kimberley said.

Because this is new territory for the company, she added that they are not sure how long the investigation will take.

Kimberley said IMCO takes project coordination and planning very seriously, so in addition to figuring out how the cables ended up getting cut, the company is also doing all it can to make sure something like this does not happen again.

“We remain committed to working with the

City of Redmond to complete this project successfully,” she said.

Kimberley said this is the first time IMCO, which was founded in 1978 and is headquartered in Ferndale, has contracted with the City of Redmond. The company has both public and private clients and focuses on areas such as transportation, water, wastewater, marine infrastructure and utilities.

Kimberley said on Redmond’s stormwater project, IMCO is 80

other passenger, who suffered minor injuries, was Zielinski. Kirkland Police Department spokesperson Lt. Mike Murray said, “I’m sure it was him.”

The driver had to be taken to Haborview Medical Center the next day due to significant chest injuries sustained during the crash, at which point he allegedly stated he had been involved in the car crash.

Kirkland police were contacted and questioned the driver, who allegedly stopped speaking with them once he learned Reel had been killed. His chest injuries were consistent with hitting a steering wheel at high speeds, police stated. He was arrested

and then released on his own recognizance.

Reel’s celebration of life ceremony was held Sept. 28 at the VFW Hall in Redmond. He was described by his mother as honest and funny.

“What a blessing it was to even know him,” she said.

A lifelong self-employed businessman, he eventually moved up to Bristol Bay in Alaska to work as a fisherman. In addition to his mother, Anita, Kyle Reel is survived by his father, Wilbur, as well as his brothers, Shaun and Chad.

Friends and family have also left photos and flowers at the site of the crash.

percent self performing, meaning the remaining 20 percent of the work is being performed by subcontractors.

The City of Redmond is also conducting an investigation of the situation.

“We have an active investigation underway and we plan to make a full public report once it is completed,” said Redmond Mayor John Marchione. “Our first priority is to ensure that everyone has minimal service to conduct busi-

ness. We have no estimated completion date at this time.”

According to a press release the City of Redmond is also working closely with the contractor’s insurance company.

Individuals who would like to begin the claims process for losses as a result of service interruption are asked to contact Redmond’s risk management office at (425) 556-2188.

“The city is working to streamline the process for businesses and individuals who need to file claims,” said Marchione.

“It is our priority to ensure our community resumes regular operations as quickly as possible.”

De Boldt previously said IMCO will still be in charge of the stormwater project and its crew will be closely monitored.

The Reporter first became aware of the mistaken identity after it was contacted by Anita Reel, Kyle Reel’s mother.

Anita Reel insisted her son had not been behind the wheel and would not have driven while intoxicated. Kirkland Police Department officials, who maintained that the crash was still under investigation during the past week, later confirmed her claims that her son was not the driver. The blood-alcohol level of the driver could not be confirmed by police.

Police stated the driver allegedly left the scene and went to the house of the other passenger.

Anita Reel claimed the

Through this unfortunate situation, however, Ferguson met other business owners at last week’s Frontier community meeting and they bounced ideas off each other on how to deal with the outage.

Today, the property is used

by Camp Korey, a member of the Paul Newman Serious Fun Network and a place where children with life-threatening illnesses can enjoy the outdoors as well as original Carnation milking barns and living quarters.

The property was acquired by the elder Stuart in 1908 — a time when getting there

from Seattle was an ordeal.

“Not quite a covered wagon train venture but one might have questioned the sanity of such an acquisition, as E.A. (Elbridge Amos) never saw the property before he bought it,” great grandson Elbridge writes in the Carnation history booklet.

Stuart bought the 360 acres sight unseen but taking the advice of his good friend Sam Hill — the same Sam Hill who made a fortune with Great

Northern Railway.

Hill, who also invested in the Carnation Company against the advice of his accountant, envisioned the railroad passing through there and, sure enough, a few years later it did.

The Saturday Speaker Series is a monthly program presented by the Redmond Historical Society on every second Saturday from September through May (with the exception of December). Topics range from local, state and Pacific Northwest historical interest. There is a suggested $5 donation for non-members. Speakers are subject to change.

The Redmond Historical Society is a 501 (3)(c) non-profit organization that receives support from the City of Redmond, 4 Culture, Nintendo, the Bellevue Collection, Nelson Legacy Group and Humanities Washington as well as from other donors and members.

A new season is upon us, and with the arrival of fall, many families launched adult children to college. For the first time, many are leaving the comforts of home. During these momentous days, families come together to celebrate the beginning of adulthood and the culmination of raising children and adolescents into men and women who will serve our community and our world in their years ahead. Parents, we are grateful for the devotion you’ve known and the investment you’ve made in creating the next generation.

For both parents and young adults, this expectant arrival of adulthood is a time that greets families with a state of mixed and changing emotions. For the young adult who is preparing to experience increased independence in the world and the adventures of selfdiscovery and social exploration, this can be a time of excitement and pleasure as well as a time of feeling anxious about the unknown academic, social, and/ or financial journeys ahead. This is also a time of transition from child-adult relationships within the home to those that will begin as mutual adults within a generational family context. No small feat.

The event of a young adult leaving home invites a season of change for the

entire family. During this transition for families, many parents and/or siblings are met with an array of emotions that can often be experienced to be both complex and confusing. Family members may experience times of both vast happiness and sorrow.

Siblings may adjust to the launching of a brother or sister by experiencing changing emotions of excitement, sadness, and anger. In addition to sharing in the joy of the adventures that await their adult child, parents may find themselves grieving the loss of their child, as well.

Parents may also experience a sense of celebration in the parenting relationship that has been as well as find relief for entering a new phase of decreased parental responsibilities. Within this newness, the launching of adult children serves to set the stage for parents to move into a fresh or rekindled sense of life and relationship. In a spirit of intentionality, what might you desire to build within your life, marriage or family in the coming season?

Other questions to consider: How might your family desire to celebrate and honor this time? As parents, what would you like to share with your adult child that he/she can bring into the days ahead? What words of encouragement Shannon West

Dental caries, commonly known as tooth decay, is the single most common chronic childhood disease. In fact, it is an infectious disease. Mothers with cavities can transmit caries-producing oral bacteria to their babies when they clean pacifiers by sticking them in their own mouths or by sharing spoons.

According to Liliana Rozo, D.D.S., assistant professor, University of Louisville School of Dentistry, tooth decay can have a detrimental effect on a child’s quality of life, performance in school and success in life. The disease can cause pain, inability to chew food well, embarrassment about discolored or damaged teeth, and distraction from play and learning.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) encourages parents to find a dental home for their baby as soon as the child’s first tooth erupts. Regular visits to a pediatric dentist will help parents become familiar with their child’s dental and oral health milestones. They’ll inform parents about teething, proper

oral hygiene habits, normal tooth development, and trauma prevention. Nutritional counseling also will be a part of the discussion.

Often, Rozo said, parents do not make the connection between oral health and overall health, but they are related.

The mouth is an open door for many microbial infections to enter the bloodstream.

Poor oral health may be a risk factor for systemic disease.

Oral health manifestations, such as bleeding or dry mouth can indicate the presence of a systemic disease or exacerbate the effects of an existing disease such as diabetes and heart disease. So parents, too, should make their own oral health care a priority in order to help their children stay healthy, said Rozo, an AAPD board certified pediatric dentist.

GUEST COLUMN

SPECIAL TO THE REPORTER

Emotions flow during the college years might you offer for this time in his/ her life? If you’re the adult child leaving home, what might you like to share with your parents? Is there an attribute or a legacy that you are particularly thankful for that they have brought into your life?

What might you each wish for in the new season ahead for yourselves, for one another, for your family?

As your family welcomes this time, consider joining with others in your community sharing in this experience of transition. Connecting with others this way can provide an extended sense of support as well as build relationships offering pleasure and adventure in the space where parenting once requested greater commitment in time and energy.

Many adult children leaving home may also benefit from having support and/or guidance as they begin life away from their parents. Today, most colleges and university campuses provide counseling, support groups, or mentoring programs for students meeting the adjustments of college.

No matter how old we get or how far away from home we move, we will always need the support of others to help us live and succeed well.

Emerald Heights opens Trailside Apartments Redmond’s Emerald Heights, a Type A continuing-care retirement community with amenity-rich offerings, officially opened the doors to its newest apartment complex, Trailside, a 43-unit independent living apartment building.

At the Sept. 24 opening ceremony, more than 250 community members celebrated the last piece of the $60 million campus expansion and one of the final phases of the Emerald Heights master plan. The

community broke ground on the apartment building in June of last year.

During the ceremony, current residents welcomed Trailside residents as they entered the finished building for the first time. Ted Bell, vice chair of the Resident Council Association, encouraged new residents to take advantage of everything Emerald Heights has to offer.

“Trailside is your new home and we welcome you to experience all we enjoy as residents of Emerald Heights,” he said.

Current, new and potential residents attended the ceremony, in addition to the construction project team and representatives from the Redmond City Council, including Byron Shutz and Hank Myers, along with representatives from the office of Congresswoman Suzan DelBene.

Lisa Hardy, president and CEO of Emerald Communities that sponsors Emerald Heights, thanked current residents for their patience during the construction process.

“We sincerely appreciate

your graciousness throughout this project. Today, we celebrate a return to life without major construction as we open Trailside,” she said.

Emerald Heights provides millions of dollars in economic impact to Redmond annually in employee salaries including taxes and benefits, vendor services, health-care supplies and the construction of new amenities including the completion of Trailside project.

Trailside residents began moving into their new homes immediately.

Rain City Cinema’s ‘Ride the Sky’ set for Ellensburg Film Festival Redmond-based Rain City Cinema announced that its film, “Ride the Sky,” will make its Washington state premiere at the 2014 Ellensburg Film Festival tomorrow.

The film recently screened at Trenton Film Festival and Flathead Lake International Cinemafest and is an official selection in October for the Laughlin Film Festival.

Directed by Paul Gorman, “Ride the Sky” is a documentary that examines the life of skydiver, Joan Carson and her skydiving fatality. The film explores Carson’s adventurous spirit, accomplishments, passion for skydiving and that of her friends during the early years of the Northwest skydiving scene.

“I see the film as being a ‘70s version of ‘Into the Wild,’” said Gorman.

Gorman, who attended high school in Redmond with Carson, spent time with her in San Francisco during the early 1970s, where she was just entering into the sport.

Gorman was intrigued by her risk taking.

“Joan was one of a kind. Back then women didn’t skydive or ride motorcycles, but Joan did both and more. She was fearless,” he said.

Carson had two serious skydiving accidents, but continued to follow her passion.

She died in a skydiving accident in Montana in 1980 at the age of 30.

After her fatality, Gorman wondered why Carson had continued in the sport and questioned the cause of her passing.

He posted a note on a skydiving forum and upon learning of Carson’s accomplishments and wanderings was hooked.

“I knew then that Joan’s story was universal and more than just my own personal interest,” Gorman said.

The film, which is presented in the same order it was shot, retraces Carson’s skydiving footsteps backward from Montana to San Francisco.

“We wanted to keep it in the same order

so audiences could experience Joan’s story the way we did,” said Gorman. “She kept a lot of things bottled up and her story unfolded along the way. There are definitely some answers and then some new questions. The cause of her double malfunction remains a mystery.”

He added, “You will have to see ‘Ride the Sky’ to know what may have driven Carson to take up skydiving in the first place and continue on after her injuries.”

“Ride the Sky” features songs from Child, a Seattle rock band from the 1970s.

Gorman has just finished his third feature film, “Roma Vendetta,” and is in the process of submitting it to film festivals.

His first feature film, “Broken Frame” was critically acclaimed in the United Kingdom.

“Ride the Sky” is scheduled to screen at 1:30 p.m.

LWSD continues to grow and develops short-term capacity plan boundary adjustment process.”

To ensure enough classrooms overall, district staff analyzed five options to address short-term capacity needs, including: 1. Changing the Capital Facility Plan standard of service temporarily 2. Making interior building modifications 3. Adding portable classrooms, either traditional or green (which are more durable, have lower energy consumption and have more windows) 4. Constructing permanent additions 5. Leasing commercial space The solutions had to be affordable within the limited available funds for additional classrooms since two proposed bond measures did not pass

in 2014. These available funds come from a mixture of past bonds that have been sold but unallocated; state construction assistance funds received and expected and school impact fees.

These sources total about $21.5 million to address district capacity needs through 2017-18.

The projected need through 2017-18 is 71 additional classrooms to house students. The district’s enrollment is expected to be 28,515 by 2017-18.

After analyzing the needs and costs, district staff developed a plan that included a combination of the first four options. Leasing commercial space was found to be too costly after the expense of interior space renova-

tions for school use were factored in.

PLAN DETAILS

1. The Capital Facility Plan standard of having separate art/science rooms and computer rooms in modernized elementary schools is temporarily suspended as needed. Those rooms are already being used as regular classrooms in some schools. This adds 18 classrooms districtwide at no monetary cost.

2. Building modifications at Juanita High School and Evergreen Middle School to provide teacher planning spaces.

When middle and high school teachers plan in rooms other than their classroom, it frees up their classrooms during

their planning period for another class. This increase in classroom utilization will provide the equivalent of 17 classrooms and cost $1 million.

3. Add “green” portables to Audubon Elementary (one), Franklin Elementary (one), Rush Elementary (three), Alcott Elementary (four), Redmond Elementary (four), Redmond Middle School (one), Evergreen Middle School (four) and

Lake Washington School District (LWSD) was the fastest-growing district in King County over the 2012-13 and 2013-14 school years.

This fall, the district matched its projected growth. There were 716 more students in the district in September than at the same time last year.

Current enrollment now stands at 26,615.

“To make sure we have room for our rapidly growing student numbers, we need to have two things in place,” said LWSD Superintendent Dr. Traci Pierce. “First, we need to make sure we have enough classrooms overall to house the expected numbers. Then we can determine how to distribute the student population through a

Cirque du Soleil returns to Marymoor Park with ‘KURIOS — Cabinet of Curiosities’ After the success of “Amaluna” in 2013, Cirque du Soleil will return to Marymoor Park with its newest touring show, “Kurios – Cabinet of Curiosities,” premiering under the iconic blue-and-yellow Big Top beginning Jan. 29, 2015 (the

full run has not yet been announced). Tickets are available for purchase to the general public by visiting cirquedusoleil.com/kurios or calling (800) 450-1480.

Tickets range from $35 to $156.

Written and directed by Michel Laprise, “Kurios — Cabinet of Curiosities” is a tale in which time comes to a complete stop, transporting the audience inside a fantasy world where everything is possible. In this realm, set in the latter half of the 19th century, reality is quite relative indeed as our perception of it is utterly transformed. The name of the show refers to the humble and strange characters that inhabit the Seeker’s Cabinet of Curiosities.

In an alternate yet familiar past, in a place where wonders abound for those who trust their imagination, a Seeker discovers that in order to glimpse the marvels that lie just below the surface, we must first learn to close our eyes. In his larger-than-life curio cabi-

net, the Seeker is convinced that there exists a hidden, invisible world — a place where the craziest ideas and the grandest dreams lay waiting. A collection of otherworldly characters suddenly steps into his makeshift mechanical world. When the outlandish, benevolent characters turn his world upside down with a touch of poetry and humor in an attempt to ignite the Seeker’s imagination, his curios jump to life one by one before his very eyes.

session. The plan adds 69 classrooms at a cost of $20 million.

REDISTRIBUTING ENROLLMENT BY CHANGING SCHOOL BOUNDARIES

The district announced last spring that a boundary process would take place this fall so that all classroom space in the district could be used to house its growing enrollment. Now that a plan to add classroom space has been determined, the boundary process is the next step to distribute student enrollment accordingly.

The process will begin with a survey to seek input on the criteria that will be used to develop potential new boundaries. Parents will receive an email with a link to the survey; community members who are interested can find a link to the survey on the district website’s home page (www.lwsd.org).

The survey will close on Friday.

The results of that survey will go to a staff committee that will use that data. The committee will be led by Associate Superintendent for Student and School Support Services Jon Holmen.

Holmen and his committee will also review and analyze enrollment projections, planned housing developments and more in order to develop possible boundary scenarios. This group will get feedback on those scenarios from parent representatives (PTSA officers) and others.

In early December, the committee will hold four open house feedback sessions in schools around the district to enable parents to weigh in on the scenarios. An online feedback alternative will be available for those who cannot attend these sessions. The committee will then revise the scenarios using that feedback and develop a recommendation to present to the superintendent, who will determine the final recommendation to take to the school board in January

for approval.

The goal is to complete the process before kindergarten registration begins in February, so that families know at which school to register their students.

The boundary process committee will post information and updates throughout the process on a new Boundary Process page in the News section of the district website. A link on that page will enable interested parents and community members to sign up to receive notices when new information has been posted.

LONG-TERM PLAN

This short-term plan will enable the district to accommodate student enrollment growth through the 2017-18 school year. The district is also engaging in a long-term facilities planning process to determine how it will accommodate enrollment growth and management of facility needs for 201819 and beyond. Two bond measures in 2014 that would have added schools and modernized school buildings were favored by a majority of voters but did not gain the 60 percent approval needed to pass.

“We need to spend the time to engage our community in a larger process to better understand the larger community’s desires and priorities with respect to school facilities,” said Pierce.

A task force will be convened this fall to conduct a comprehensive communityengagement process, with the goal to make recommendations to the superintendent and school board regarding long-term facility plans sometime next spring or early summer. Should those recommendations include future bond measures, the earliest a measure would be on the ballot would be February 2016. A separate section on the district website will be launched to enable community members to track the task force’s work and provide input.

www.nw-ads.com 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.
