FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19, 2014

Gov. Jay Inslee says the state needs to invest $2.3 billion to meet its commitment to students, families and educators.

During a town hall meeting Monday night in Bellevue, Inslee laid out his proposal for the state’s primary and secondary educational

futures.

“We know what what we need to do, we just need to do more of it in more place,” Inslee told the audience, which included satellite locations in Tacoma, Moses Lake and Spokane via a live web broadcast.

According to Inslee, more than half of the proposed investment, $1.3 billion, would be spent meeting the requirements of House Bill

2776, the subject of the McCleary decision, by the second year of the 2015-2017 biennium.

Funding allocations per GOV. JAY INSLEE student in the 2015-16 school year would be increased from $848

This is the way Lake Sammamish State Park is annexed, not with a bang but a — well, not even a whimper.

The Issaquah City Council voted unanimously Monday night to annex Lake Sammamish State Park into city boundaries, following a public comment period that saw no citizens weigh in on the subject.

“I feel bad when we don’t have much discussion or lively turnout on an issue,” Councilmember Tola Marts said, because it can make an important piece of legislation seem insignificant.

“This is something that has been in the works a long, long time,” agreed Mayor Fred Butler.

Citizen survey results ‘a bit lower than 2012’

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

the best way to care for our neighbors is to be in the neighborhood.

We think about you • Same-day appointments

A phone survey of more than 400 Sammamish residents conducted in October showed overwhelmingly positive opinions on the city, according to results released on Dec. 9.

The randomized community survey showed slightly declining satisfaction in city services like planning and roads, compared against results seen in 2012, but are consistent with results seen since the city began issuing the survey in its early years of incorporation.

"Since we started asking these questions in 2003, positive responses have usually run between 70 and 90 percent, which we think is pretty good," city Communications Manager Tim Larson said. "This year's numbers are in that range, but a bit lower than 2012. During the council discussion Dec. 9 there was some thought that perhaps the recent increase in development activity, and the accompanying concerns about growth, might have put some downward pressure on the numbers this year."

Citizens who agreed to provide opinions in the survey showed the greatest degree of satisfaction, at 99 percent, for the daytime

safety of their neighborhoods, followed by 96 percent satisfaction for nighttime safety.

Satisfaction with police presence rose 5 percent from 2012, to 77 percent. Satisfaction with street conditions rose 7 percent over 2012, to 90 percent.

Declines were seen in respondents' satisfaction regarding whether the city was generally on the "right track," as well as in city council leadership, municipal financial management, citizen engagement, planning, roads progress and winter road clearing.

Satisfaction with council leadership saw the greatest decline, falling 14 percent — from 86 percent in 2012 to 72 percent in the most recent survey.

The city conducted its first citizen survey in 2000 — one year after incorporating — and has conducted six more surveys at irregular intervals since. Among questions that have remained the same, citizen satisfaction has remained more-or-less consistent over the past 13 years.

The 2014 community survey was conducted by McGuire Research with a 95 percent confidence level in the results and a 5 percent margin of error.

Should e-cigarette users pay more for their vice?

The Sound Cities Association's Public Issues Committee on Dec. 10 voted unanimously to recommend support for a state tax to support public health services, recommending electronic cigarettes and other vaporizing devices as a potential source of revenue. The Association's ruling board accepted the committee’s recommendation Wednesday morning, Executive Director Deanna Dawson said.

The Association includes 36 King County cities in its membership, including Issaquah.

On Dec. 1, the Issaquah City Council debated the merits of a potential sin tax on e-cigarettes.

Electronic cigarettes are small battery-powered devices that heat a reservoir of nicotineinfused liquid into a breathable vapor without the smoke from manufactured cigarettes.

Proponents of the devices argue they provide a safer alternative to smoking that doesn't disturb passersby with unpleasant smells or secondhand inhalants.

Critics have pointed to continued addiction to nicotine and unexamined health effects of inhaled vapor. The federal Food and Drug Administration in April proposed a rule that would give it regulatory jurisdiction over the e-cigarette market.

The first commercial e-cigarettes were made available in China in 2004 and the product has made significant inroads with United States consumers in the 2010s. Wells Fargo analysts estimated in September the market size of e-cigarettes and similar "tank" vaporizers would be $2.5 billion by the end of 2014.

of the lawmakers who represents the city at the Public Issues Committee meetings and introduced discussion of potential e-cigarette taxes.

"I'm not a scientist and I don't know a lot of the medical data about e-cigarettes or vaping," Councilmember Joshua Schaer said. "But … it sure seems pretty harmful to directly inject nicotine into one's body. There may be some benefits to smoking a cigarette by comparison, but when I look at taxation and regulation, the question for me is always whether it's proportional to the harm that you're seeking to regulate. In this situation I would support increased taxation on those products."

Councilmember Mary Lou Pauly questioned whether a sin tax intended to reduce use could be considered a sustainable funding source.

Deputy Council President Stacy Goodman shared concerns brought by other members of the Public Issues Committee that sin taxes on vaporizers could defeat a potential cessation method for smoking.

"With Josh, I don't know the science, but it's an interesting dilemma," Goodman said.

Marts cited a recent Japanese study that

Expansion for Alpine Lakes Wilderness benefits all residents

I

t’s taken seven years, but it finally looks as if the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area will get a needed and beneficial expansion.

Last week, both the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate approved legislation to add an additional 22,000 acres of low-elevation lands to the existing wilderness in King County. The last step is President Obama’s signature. It should be an easy decision.

U.S. Rep. Dave Reichert who began pushing for the expansion in 2007, aptly calls the Alpine Lakes Photo courtesy of United States Department of Agriculture, Forest Service Wilderness Area “truly one of the gems of Washington state.” He and U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene, of Medina, pushed the legislation in the House. Sens. Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell also were instrumental in getting the bill over the last legislative hump in the Senate.

The wilderness area, originally designated in 1976, has become one of the most popular wilderness areas in the country.

The additional land will include forests that are home to cougars, black bears, bobcats, elk, deer and cutthroat trout.

The legislation also adds both the Pratt and Middle Fork Snoqualmie Rivers as Wild and Scenic. The rivers are home to world-class fishing, kayaking and whitewater rafting.

If you’ve never visited the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area, you should. It’s less than an hour’s drive away. And with the expected addition of 22,000 acres, it only will be better.

Time to get health coverage

L

ast year, open enrollment in the health benefits exchanges across the country got a lot of attention. This year’s open enrollment period has been much quieter. But Washington’s Health Plan Finder marketplace is open for business right now through Feb. 15 for open enrollment for 2015 coverage.

If you don’t have DR. ADAM access to coverJONAS age through your employer and you want to avoid a tax penalty — and significant medical debt or bankruptcy in the event of an illness or injury — now is the time to do your health care homework and get enrolled in a plan.

Most people, especially those who’ve never bought insurance, aren’t experts in how insurance coverage works. The good news: it’s a fairly straightforward transaction.

When you buy your own health insurance, you’ll pay a monthly premium, which is simply the cost for coverage every month.

You must pay the premium every month to stay covered, whether or not you use any health care services that month.

If you choose a plan with a deductible, you’ll pay for a certain amount of services yourself each year before your insurance will begin to pay. A $1,000 deductible means you’ll pay for the first $1,000 in medical costs before your insurance begins making payments. But even in plans with deductibles, many preventive services are covered at no cost.

If you choose a plan with “coinsurance,” there will be a set percentage you must pay for certain health services, such as 20 percent of the costs of a hospital stay. A “co-pay” is a set dollar amount you’ll pay, such as $20 for a visit to a primary care doctor.

It’s that simple. And folks wor-

ried about whether they can afford insurance should know that an estimated 80 percent of enrollees who buy through the exchange for 2015 will receive a subsidy to help pay their monthly premiums, copays or both.

Those who don’t qualify for subsidies should also shop around outside the exchange and consider buying their coverage directly from an insurance carrier, as not all plans and carriers are included in it.

If you have questions, you can visit the Health Plan Finder website (www.wahealthplanfinder. org), call the Exchange call center (1-855-WAFINDER / 1-855-9234633), or call any insurer directly to ask about their options. Do your homework and get enrolled. You must buy coverage by Dec. 23 for it to be effective on Jan. 1.

What’s happening in Issaquah and Sammamish

With the help of PTSA funding, Issaquah High School has purchased a new system to improve security for students, staff and visitors at the school.

Beginning Jan. 5, the first time a person checks in as a visitor, they will need to show their driver’s license.

The license will be used to capture a photo for a photo ID badge, but will not take any personal information.

Those without a license with them will have their picture taken for the photo ID. The system then prints a self-expiring ID badge.

We are the sixth largest city without that right. Most of our neighboring cities and the city-selected comparable cities have it.

I support the citizens of Sammamish being granted the initiative and referendum power. As the council debates and learns about the process, I hope it is not lost on them that we are smart and savvy voters that are not seeking to abuse the power, but rather to use it as a check and balance for a

unusual sight: U-Haul trucks following UPS trucks and even seeing packages being transferred from UPS trucks to U-Haul vehicles.

It’s just another sign of growing holiday deliveries.

According to UPS spokesman Dan McMackin, UPS has used rental trucks to supplement its fleet for the past 40 years.

According to a story in the Providence Business Report, UPS expects to set a record for holiday deliveries this year.

It also expects that December will hit a record for worldwide delivery volume with more than 585 million packages delivered, an increase of 11 percent compared with last year.

his recommendations.

“Are we going to continue this excellence or start a slow slide backwards?” Inslee said of the budget’s passage. “There’s no money flowing through the streets of Olympia at Capitol Hill and these are quantum leaps we’re proposing with archaic revenue streams, which aren’t keeping pace with the growth of our economy.”

A large portion of the town hall meeting was spent with Inslee detailing various aspects of his proposed education spending, but one topic he continued to go to the well with was the idea of providing mentors for first- and second-year teachers in the school system.

Inslee is expected to unveil his proposal to balance the budget Thursday, something he described as “a real financing plan, not based on indebtedness.”

According to Inslee’s staff, class sizes from kindergarten through third grade would be reduced to a maximum of 17 students, a $448.1 million cost paid a year ahead of the deadline. It would also satisfy a portion of the recently passed Initiative 1351.

When asked how voters might react to the governor proposing only funding a part of the bill, Inslee’s budget chief David Schumacher told reporters prior to the meeting it was the only realistic solution.

“We cannot fully fund 1351 in the first biennium,” he said. “What we’ve chosen to do is fully fund the K-3 class size … there’s not enough money to fully fund the (estimated) $2 billion.”º Funding for full-day kindergarten would also be implemented statewide in the governor’s proposed education spending budget, increasing enrollment from 44 percent to at least 70 percent.

Currently, children not enrolled in statefunded full-day kindergarten either attend half-day sessions or tuition-supported full-day kindergarten at an annual cost of about

Josh Stilts, Bellevue Reporter

Gov. Jay Inslee explains part of his $2.3 billion proposed education spending plan during a town hall meeting at Newport High School in Bellevue on Monday. $3,000, according to the governor’s senior education policy advisor, Marcie Maxwell.

Inslee also proposed making the state’s largest investment to date in early learning by spending $156.3 million to create 6,358 new spaces for the Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program and establishing a rating program that trains child care providers in effective learning strategies. That investment is estimated to reach an additional 50,639 children in the state.

“Our investment in early childhood education is a very large one ... a place I believe we have to start,” Inslee said.

He added later that, while education is paramount, giving students the best chance to attain that knowledge is equally important, especially among low-income households.

“If you’re going to expect children to do homework, they need a home to do it in,”

the governor said. “At the same time that we have a massive increase in economic growth through Microsoft, Boeing and Amazon, the food bank lines are growing.”

The governor estimated the number of homeless students currently enrolled in the state at more than 30,000, which is why he said money must be spent to help correct that and give them the best possible chance to succeed.

That may also mean changing the ideology of college prep currently touted in middle and high schools.

“You can be a success and not go to a four-year college,” he said. “We’ve had such an emphasis on four-year degree programs ... but we’ve sent a message that if you’re not interested in that then there’s no reason to continue high school. We need to help students recognize their own skills and see what

fits best for them.”

As such, the governor is also suggesting increasing the availability of internships for high school students.

Maxwell said the proposed spending is “strongly supported” by educators, business leaders and politicians on both sides of the aisle, but declined to comment on how the governor plans to pay for the increased spending.

If the proposed spending is adopted and passed, the state would hire an additional 7,000 elementary educators to meet the reduced class size requirement and spend an estimated $595.6 million in salary increases and pension rates for school employees.

Inslee said he hopes the districts will be able to fill the majority of those positions with talent within Washington state.

“We’re looking for the best available talent,” he said. “Fortunately we have some top-ofthe-line schools here. We want to take advantage of those opportunities.”

Working on classroom management skills with new teachers to help them avoid burnout and other causes of attrition will also help maintain the talent pool, Inslee said.

Schumacher added that retaining quality teachers is a must for success, which is one of the major reasons why pay increases were included in the spending plan.

“We need to invest in our teachers and schools,” Schumacher said. “It’s time to pay them what they deserve.”

Under the proposed education spending plan, tuition rates would be frozen for resident undergraduates for both years of the biennium and $100 million would be set aside for Opportunity Scholarship, a public-private partnership designed to address rising tuition and promote potential career opportunities for students.

“We’re at a real fork in the road,” Inslee said.

“We’re either going to make those investments or we’re going to take the other path and it’s going to erode our progress.”

‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ at Eastlake High School

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

A King County Medic One ambulance.

Medic One kicks off fundraiser The Medic One Foundation has kicked off its year-end fundraising drive.

If met, the foundation’s $615,000 goal would cover the cost of training 23 new Medic One paramedics — the largest paramedic class since 2003 — as well as the purchase of two new training defibrillators.

A total of $100,000 of the $615,000 goal still remains to be raised by the end of the year. The foundation funds Medic One’s paramedic training. Reports show that the Seattle/ King County area has a 62 percent survival rate for sudden cardiac arrest. Rates for other cities are New York (5 percent), Chicago (3 percent), Los Angeles

(7 percent) and Detroit (0 percent).

“Our region’s firefighters and paramedics make this the safest place in the country for victims of sudden cardiac arrest,” said Jan Sprake, executive director of the Medic One Foundation. “Most people don’t think about the quality of training paramedics receive or how to improve your chances of survival before you even reach the hospital.

But when the unexpected does happen and you or a loved one is fighting to stay alive, the paramedic training program we are asking you to support could play a big part in helping you win that fight.”

The foundation doesn’t

get any government funding for the training it provides. Donors can designate gifts for a number of items including paramedic training textbooks, cardiac life support classes, medical equipment and the two training defibrillators.

The training for the region’s paramedics is more than double the amount of instruction time required by the national standard.

The demand for paramedics is expected to continue to be high over the next 10 years due to the upcoming retirement of many of the region’s senior paramedics.

Teacher says every time a bell rings an angel gets its wings. So it’s a good thing an upcoming live production of a Frank Capra classic will rely entirely on sound.

The old Bailey Building and Loan and the rest of Bedford Falls (nee Pottersville) will temporarily relocate to Eastlake High School this Saturday and Sunday when the Repertory Collective performs “It’s A Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play.”

The adaptation — originally rewritten in the mid ‘90s by playwright Joe Landry for a friend’s high school drama production — takes the events of the film and puts it into the format of a periodappropriate radio play. Actors perform the dialogue and create the sound effects for the production live on stage.

Many people know “It’s A Wonderful Life” as a Christmas classic. Fewer may realize that wasn’t the case when the film was released in 1946. Even though it was nominated for five Academy Awards, “It’s A Wonderful Life” received almost

universally negative reviews and commercially flopped, losing more than half a million dollars for RKO Radio Pictures.

The plot even garnered an FBI memo investigating potential communist themes, for its depiction of villainous banker Mr. Potter as an unfeeling slumlord.

But in 1974, Republic Pictures failed to renew its copyright on the film and it entered the public domain. Television networks jumped at the chance to air free holiday programming and, soon enough, an obscure failure was reborn a Christmas staple as necessary as Douglas firs and knitted stockings.

The Repertory Collective is performing “It’s A Wonderful Life: The Radio Play” under the auspices of the Sammamish Arts Commission. Tickets are available for free from Brown Paper Tickets at brownpapertickets.com/event/907058.

The Eastlake Performing Arts Center is based at 400 228th Ave. N.E. in Sammamish.

Metro Transit breaks ridership record at close of 2014 Metro Transit has recorded the highest ridership of its 41-year history.

Preliminary data show Metro’s annual ridership will be about 2 percent higher at 2014’s close compared to 2013. That’s more than 120 million rides — or an average of nearly 400,000 trips each weekday.

Ridership has grown with the county. King County’s population grew by only 200,000 between the 2000 and 2010 census. The U.S. Census Bureau estimates the population grew by approximately 100,000 from 2010 to 2013.

Metro is the ninth-largest transit agency in the United States for ridership.

Wind storm causes outages at hundreds of area homes

Hill to continue budget leadership role in Senate

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

While the Eastside was not harmed at anywhere near the level of Whidbey Island and the east and south Puget Sound regions, hundreds of households in the Issaquah and Sammamish area were left without power on the morning of Dec. 12 following a night of high wind gusts that hit the Northwest.

Nearly 200 addresses were left powerless around Pine Lake and southeast of Skyline High School in Sammamish, as well as more than two dozen addresses near Northeast Inglewood Hill Road and Sammamish Parkway Northeast, according to Puget Sound Energy's outage map.

Meanwhile, 486 addresses were without power in the Sycamore area of Issaquah as well as a handful of addresses in the city's Olde Town district.

Clark, Issaquah Middle School, Issaquah High School and Tiger Mountain Community High School were all closed for the power outages. The Issaquah Community Center was briefly closed Dec. 12 during the power outages.

According to city spokesperson Warren Kagarise, Issaquah was not onerously

"While there was an increase in the number of calls to our 911 center related to the power outage, police officers did not respond to any major incidents," Kagarise wrote in an email to The Reporter. "Our public works team also had an uneventful evening, and only had to contend with minor storm-related debris."

The National Weather Service forecasted high winds for the Northwest region from 6 p.m. Dec. 11 to 4 a.m. Dec. 12, with sustained winds above 35 miles per hour and gusts up to 60 miles per hour. Puget Sound Energy gathered 30 crews to the Puget Sound region from as far as British Columbia and Eastern Washington to combat expected outages.

As of 10 a.m. Dec. 12, more than 43,000 energy customers were temporarily powerless in 730 areas of PSE's territory. The hardest hit areas were in Whidbey Island, Kitsap County and Thurston County.

The Majority Coalition Caucus announced Dec. 9 that Sen. Andy Hill will continue as chair of the Senate Ways and Means Committee and chief Senate budget writer. Hill, (R-45) represents the Sammamish area.

Hill was re-elected to his second fouryear Senate term in November.

“As chair, I’ve SEN. ANDY worked hard to HILL provide a profound change of course for the state budget,” said Hill. “We’ve shown that you can work together to produce real bipartisan results that put kids first, balance the budget and protect the most vulnerable.

I’m ready to continue this new way of doing business in Olympia.”

Hill was appointed chair of Ways and Means in 2013 when the state faced a $2 billion deficit. The final negotiated plan added an additional $1 billion to K-12 education, froze college tuition and protected the social safety net without raising taxes. The 2013-14 budget passed 44-4 in the Senate – the most votes for a biennial budget since 1949.

Crusaders accept bid to play in Florida Eastside Catholic will play one more game together

BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Eastside Catholic Crusaders head football coach Jeremy Thielbahr had a multitude of people to get back in touch with in the hours following Eastside Catholic's 35-13 victory against the Bellevue Wolverines on Dec. 5 in the Class 3A state championship game.

"I had 125 texts. It was just a complete celebration of 'mission accomplished' and was just a great feeling of expectations met.

We had beaten the giant of Bellevue and were really excited about what we had accomplished," Thielbahr said. "It was a great step for our program to be able to accomplish the state championship and have that journey as a team."

The journey isn't over for the Crusaders.

They were selected to play in the Burger King State Champions Bowl Series, which takes place on Dec. 27 in Boca Raton, Fla. The Crusaders accepted the bid on Dec. 11 and began practice in preparation for the game on Dec. 15. The Crusaders will face Trinity Christian at noon on Dec. 27.

Eastside Catholic head coach Jeremy Thielbahr, left, with his hands in the air, celebrates following his team's 35-13 win against the Bellevue Wolverines on Dec. 5. The Crusaders will play in the Burger King State Champions Bowl Series on Dec. 27 in Boca Raton, Fla. They will fly out of SeaTac Airport on Christmas Day. "It's such a great opportunity for another phenomenal experience for our seniors and this great group of players that we've got.

That is really what high school football is all about. It's about having team togetherness and great experiences together. I'm really

excited about making this trip and traveling with this group one more time and see how it all unfolds," Thielbahr said. "We're excited to go compete at a high level. We're going over there to win. We have a great group of kids and we're going to give it our best shot. What an honor it is for us to represent the state of Washington. I think it’s a great opportunity you can't pass up."

The Crusaders will fly to Florida on Christmas Day. Thielbahr said a few of the coaches will don Santa Claus outfits on the flight to Florida.

Thielbahr, who was a player on the Washington State University football team that played in the 2001 Sun Bowl in El Paso, said it's a once in a lifetime opportunity for his team.

"You're prepared for it when you're in college. When you're in high school you don't expect this sort of treatment. To be able to fly across the country and play in a game in Florida is just a really special moment," he said. "I'm really excited for our seniors. They have left a legacy that is just amazing for our team and that is what we really expected from them. They deserve this great opportunity and this great experience of going to a bowl game, playing in front of a lot of people on ESPNU and having a great time."

Park, in part to make permitting of in-park construction projects easier — City Hall Northwest, home of the city Permit Center, is fewer than 1,000 feet from the park.

So what will the city get out of annexation? Stormwater fees imposed on the park are expected to bring in approximately $57,000 for the city. In exchange, the city will pay approximately $10,000 to the King County Sheriff ’s Office to contract shore patrols from the Sheriff ’s marine unit.

City officials began working in earnest toward annexation after the council gave the go-ahead in September and affirmed the zoning of the park’s land parcels.

Councilmember Joshua Schaer gave the lone dissenting vote in September against the zoning of the parcels, noting that he felt

the “Community Facilities Facilities” designation given to two of the parcels was too broad. While he voted for the annexation of the park Monday night, he repeated his concerns regarding “significant projects with significant traffic and other effects on our community.”

Councilmember Stacy Goodman said she hoped city involvement in the park would return it to its “glory days.”

Councilmember Eileen Barber concurred, adding that she believed in the

You call this a hospital?

Photo: Benjamin Benschneider/OTTO

No. As a matter of fact, we call it a community center that’s dedicated to health.

We call it a shopping mall for gifts that bring some much-needed cheer.

We call it a school where you can learn about what ails you and how to avoid it in the first place.

We call it a peaceful place for healing where the best minds in medicine come together as one.

We call it a no-wait emergency room, a family-friendly primary-care clinic, an advanced lab and diagnostic imaging center, and a home to dozens of expert specialists.

We call this place Swedish Issaquah. We think you’ll call it extraordinary.

751 N.E. Blakely Dr., Issaquah, (Off I-90 at Exit 18)
