County prepares major plan to improve Green River levees

BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

There’s a whole lot of time, work and money going into a plan to improve the Green River levees that protect the cities of Kent, Au-

burn, Tukwila and Renton from flooding.

King County Flood Control District officials expect to complete this summer the formation of the Green River SystemWide Improvement Framework

(SWIF), designed to improve flood protection, as well as save salmon and enhance open space, recreation and public access.

“It’s an important conversation,” said Kent City Council President Dana Ralph after hearing a SWIF

presentation on Feb. 3 at a council workshop. “We are very fortunate to have that asset in the middle of the city, and we need to make sure we are doing everything to protect it and protect the businesses that are along the river at the same time.”

Jennifer Knauer, SWIF project manager for the county, told the council that the plan focuses on the lower Green River from Auburn (near Highway 18) [ more LEVEES page 5 ]

Large housing apartment complex to be built on West Hill

Construction is expected to start later this year on a 261-unit affordable housing apartment complex in Kent along Veterans Drive on the West Hill.

DevCo Inc., a Bellevue-based developer, plans to build the GrandView apartments on the former Kent Highlands property it bought for $5 million last year from the city of Kent and Seattle Public Utilities. The site is 11.4 acres at 3900 Veterans Drive, just east of Military Road South. DevCo paid the city $2 million for its 3.9 acres of the property.

DevCo is a private for-profit company led by president Jack Hunden, who has specialized in building affordable multi-family rental housing for nearly two decades. The company has built 15 low-income housing developments across the state.

“I just received an email a few days ago from Jack Hutton of DevCo, who is developing the project, indicating that they are beginning to move forward with seeking their final (city) permits on that project to set it up for start of construction this year,” said Ben Wolters,

The ripples felt by President Barack Obama’s proposal to provide two years of education at American community colleges can be

felt at Green River.

“It’s kind of exciting.

We’re waiting to hear more details about it,” said Allison Friedly, Green River College communications director.

Friedly said the college is still waiting to see what could happen if it receives the grant money.

The influx of students would require another upgrade to facilities and

services.

“That hasn’t been a discussion yet,” Friedly said.

“We’re still waiting to see what’s going to happen. It wouldn’t be implemented immediately.”

The Obama administration expects the program to cost $60 billion over the next 10 years. By comparison, the U.S. government has spent $84 on the F-35 [ more COLLEGES page 4 ]

For Spalti and her father, head coach Jerry Spalti, it marks an achievement for more than just competition.

The girls ability to sustain the team’s integrity in spite of rigorous GPA and attendance requirements – the Spaltis require a 2.5 GPA standard, instead of the usual 2.0 – has been just as important as the stunts and dances the team performs.

The girls have met and exceeded the Spaltis’ expectations.

“These girls have constantly been in the shadow of bigger teams,” Erica Spalti said. “Every day they worked for small victories, whether it was nailing a set or hitting a jump.”

While the casual observer might not think of cheerleading as an intensive sport, there’s a large degree of coordination, strength and personal confidence required to perform the stunts.

“Cheerleading is a dangerous athletic activity. If you throw a ball and you drop it, you lose a down. If you throw a girl and you drop her, it’s an injury,” Erica Spalti said.

She says that the girls weren’t quite prepared to find out they made the championship.

“They’re so excited,” Erica Spalti said. “They cried for about twoand-a-half minutes when they found out they were qualified. It’s a shock and a reality for them. This is something that they did and they worked for.”

The girls’ work has even inspired Erica Spalti.

“These girls never quit, they never stop,” she said. “Their season starts after tryouts in May. They go to camp and learn their cheers and stunts and then they go to football games and basketball games.

Whenever I want to give up, I just think of them.”

Police bust two men for downtown graffiti spree REPORTER STAFF

Kent Police arrested two Kent men for investigation of malicious mischief in connection with prolific graffiti tagging in the downtown area.

An officer received information on Jan. 31 about taggers vandalizing downtown, according to a Feb. 5 Kent Police media release. The officer determined the individu-

als used the markings of “SC OGS X13” or a variation of it.

Police initially were unable to find the suspects, but officers during their investigation spotted two men in their early 20s who were identified as the possible suspects.

Officers arrested the men and booked them into the city jail.

Police are working with property owners to remove the graffiti and restore property to its original ap-

pearance.

“These arrests are a great example of the priority that our police department places on protecting the quality of life in our community,” said Cmdr. Jarod Kasner. “Chief Ken Thomas has made it clear that graffiti vandalism will not be tolerated in Kent and we will continue to make enforcement of property vandalism crimes and removal of graffiti a high priority.”

Since 2008, police have worked with other city departments to develop an aggressive graffiti prevention program. It includes a graffiti hotline (253-856-GRAF) for reporting damage or to provide tips about taggers, a community response team to help clean up the graffiti and enhanced penalties of up to a year in jail and a $5,000 fine for people caught tagging.

Sound Transit receives $1.3 billion federal loan that could benefit Kent FOR THE REPORTER

Kent projects could benefit from Sound Transit’s action to execute a $1.3 billion low-interest federal loan under the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) that will increase the financial capacity of the agency by $200-$300 million.

That additional money will lead to consideration by the Sound Transit Board of Directors to restore suspended projects, including possibly extending light rail from Kent-Des Moines to South 272nd Street in Federal Way as well as improvements for accessing Kent Station, where people board the Sounder trains.

Sound Transit plans to extend light rail to Kent near South 240th Street by 2023.

Possible routes are expected to be released later this year by the agency.

This is the largest single TIFIA loan to a transit agency in the country.

Streets in four Kent residential areas will receive new pavement this year with funds from the city’s increased solid waste utility tax.

Crews will put down asphalt overlays on the streets this summer to smooth out the pavement and get rid of the numerous potholes. The Kent City Council approved the projects on Feb. 3.

The street projects are: • 109th Avenue Southeast from SE 256th Street to SE 248th Street • 118th Place Southeast from SE 256th Street to SE 251st Street • Lake Fenwick Road from Reith Road to SE 259th Place • South 254th Street from Lake Fenwick Road to S 256th St; S. 253rd Street from S. 254th St. to S. 252nd Pl; 43rd Place South, entire length; and 42nd Place South, entire length “I drove all four of these over the weekend and I’m not disagreeing with any of them,” Council President Dana Ralph said at a recent Public Works Committee meeting about the city staff choices for

the initial street projects.

The council last year approved a garbage tax increase in 2015 to 18.3 percent from 7.8 percent on each bill. The increase will bring in about $3 million per year for street maintenance in neighborhoods.

City staff has budgeted about $1.5 million in 2015 for the four projects. City officials rationalized the tax increase because of the damage garbage and recycling trucks cause to roads.

“Living on West Hill I am pulling very strongly for Lake Fenwick Road,” Councilwoman Brenda Fincher said. “But I’m just glad to see we’re making advancements to get these roads back into good order so people driving along them don’t have any damage to their cars.”

Kent has nearly 320 miles of city streets, with about 70 percent of those considered residential streets. A residential street lasts about 25 years before it needs an asphalt overlay.

At least 19 Kent neighborhoods have cracked roads that need to be repaired, according to city staff. The cost to repair all of those streets is estimated at $35 million.

Wolters said the complex is called GrandView because “it has an incredible view of Mount Rainier from up there.�

Just as with previous projects, DevCo applied to the Washington State Housing Finance Commission (WSHFC) to secure funding for the Kent apartments. The commission last year approved issuing $45 million in tax-exempt bonds to help fund the project.

Because of the funding from the WSHFC, the units will be required to be made available to households earning no more than 60 percent of the median household income in King County, which is about $71,000

According to county income figures for 2014, a one-bedroom unit for one person could rent for up to about $927 per month and a twobedroom unit for about $1,059.

Hunden told the commission the apartments will include 15 fivebedroom units and 51 four-bedroom units because of the popularity of the larger apartments at other complexes the company has built, according to commission meeting documents.

He also told the commission that Kent has very high design standards so the apartments will have metal siding and a substantial amount of brick in the structure.

tails with the Washington State Board of Technical and Community Colleges’ goal to increase the number of Bachelors of Applied Science (BAS) four-year degrees at its multiple community colleges.

BAS programs provide hard-skill certifications but also give students a background in other skills that will make them more attractive for career advancement. “We’re looking at a lot of careers that require technical-based education,�

Friedly said, “so we’re also providing the soft skills so that workers are joining the workforce with the ability to deal with customers and write proposals and serve in a much greater capacity.�

BAS programs, Friedly said, will help close a gap between four-year college graduates and high school graduates. “The community and technical colleges are able to offer a pipeline into those careers,� Friedly said. “If

they’re just seeking a high school diploma, that’s not going to benefit you as much.�

The SBCTC recently heard proposals for seven different BAS degrees at colleges, ranging from Bellingham to Olympia to Yakima. Green River has its eyes set on several more programs to add to its list.

In addition to the marketing and computer science BAS programs, the school is on track to launch a BAS in natural resources in the fall. The college might add a four-year bachelors of science in nursing after the Washington State Nursing Board contacted Green River to request it add the program.

Friedly is optimistic about adding the programs and feels that there is a strong student interest in community college degrees. “The demand is definitely there when we have those giant waiting lists at other colleges,� she said.

February 13, 2015 [5] paired the dam a few years ago for about $40 million with additional drains and a drain tunnel after 2009 flooding damaged an abutment to the dam, but the Corps estimated costs at nearly $500 million to install a concrete cutoff curtain as a more permanent fixture.

[ LEVEES from page 1 ] to Tukwila, a stretch of about 21 miles that includes about a dozen levees that protect more than 100,000 jobs and $7.3 billion worth of structures and contents.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers recently approved the SWIF approach for levees across the nation. County officials will submit the Green River plan this summer to the Corps for approval. It is one of about three dozen SWIF projects nationwide. County staff began work on the plan more than two years ago.

The SWIF is scheduled to go before the King County Flood Control District executive committee on Feb. 17 for approval and then to the full flood district board in March. The plan is expected to be a 200-page document, and the Corps could send it back to the county if it doesn’t meet Corps requirements.

“We have been told by the Corps that the Green River SWIF is the most ambitious in the nation, and it’s ambitious because of its complexity,” Knauer said.

“There are no other SWIFs that are trying to tackle the complexity of land use, ecological, socioeconomic sensitive issues within a major river and its floodplain through the SWIF process. So all eyes are on this project and its outcome.”

The formation of the Green River plan is funded by the King County Flood Control District and a $300,000 grant from the state of Washington through Puget Sound Partnership.

The flood district provides about $10 million per year for Green River projects through a countywide property tax of 10 cents per $1,000 assessed valuation that brings in about $50 million per year for river projects across King County, including the Snoqualmie, Cedar and White rivers.

“We know our capital program for SWIF will likely exceed $300 million,” Knauer said about proj-

Several levee projects are already completed or under way in Kent, Auburn and Tukwila. State and federal funds have helped pay for those projects. But more work is needed to bring levees up to the SWIF goal of a 500-year flood protection. Levees at that standard could handle a river flow of 18,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) and include 3 feet of freeboard or height above the water.

Howard Hanson Dam to protect mainly agricultural lands. Now many homes and businesses exist along the river as well.

“We haven’t experienced a flood of this magnitude (500 year) since the dam was built (in 1961), but we do know there have been very large magnitude floods in Western Washington, and all of the indicators are with shifting climate trends that we need to be prepared to protect our vital economic assets should there be a very significant event in the future,” Knauer said of the reasons for the higher protection.

The largest Green River flow since the dam began operating is 12,400 cfs, said Lorin Reinelt, managing engineer for the county Water and Land Resources Division. He said three events since

1950 included flows of larger than 12,000 cfs.

But large 500-year flood events occurred in 2007 in the Chehalis River and in 1996 in the Nisqually River, Reinelt said of the largest river flows in the last 20 years in Western Washington.

Knauer said the Hanson Dam was initially built to provide a 500-year level of protection but the Army Corps reports it’s only providing a 140-year level of protection. She said people have asked her why not improve the Hanson Dam rather than spend money on the levees.

A Corps study indicated that the complexity and cost of improving the dam makes that option very challenging and uncertain. The dam is an earthen embankment dam. Crews re-

Ralph, the council president, likes the direction of the improvement plan.

“The goal of the SWIF process and the outcomes we are looking for is dealing with the Green River in a holistic way,” Ralph said. “There are multiple things that are happening there including flood protection, which is the primary focus of the systemwide improvement, and how do we protect the assets that are in place along the river and at the same time acknowledge that there is habitat and endangered species in the river so how are we working toward making sure the temperatures in the river are sustainable and that recreational assets along the river are available to our residents so they can access it.”

Councilwoman Deborah Ranniger, who served on a Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIA) committee that helps to improve salmon habitat for the Green River, said she likes how the SWIF looks at more issues than simply flood protection.

“It was clear to me the folks involved in the resource have worked with WRIA 9 and the Muckleshoot tribe and other folks that are very interested and concerned about habitat protection and environmental protection,” Ranniger said after the county presentation. “I think the projects being planned make a lot of sense.

I noticed one of the top priorities was shade protection and that historically has been a big challenge to make happen along the Green River. So we are making slow but steady progress.”

Have offenders clean up graffiti Great job by the Kent Police Department for the arrest of the two men responsible for the graffiti that was displayed all over downtown Kent.

I would like the judge to bypass the usual fines/jail time and sentence them to clean up all graffiti in Kent on one weekend day for one year.

Wearing bright orange vests that says, "Graffiti Offender," our Kiwanis Club of Kent, as well as all service clubs in Kent, have all spent our time cleaning up after them.

It would be nice to have the offenders take over the job.

GUEST OPINION

Failing businesses a sign of weak economy For the first time in American history, entrepreneurship is in decline.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, businesses are dying faster than they’re being formed.

Each year, 400,000 new businesses start up nationwide; 470,000 close their doors.

Gallup reports that in the 1980s,

business startups outpaced business failures by about 100,000 per year, a trend that continued until the 2008 recession. Now, after six years of sluggish economic recovery, the entrepreneurial death rate in the U.S. is outpacing its birth rate.

In fact, the U.S. now ranks 12th

“Should all schoolchildren be vaccinated?”

Eileen Ely

?

Question of the week:

Community and technical colleges in Washington have increased tuition by 47 percent since the 2008-2009 school year, largely in response to reduced support from our state Legislature.

When adjusted for inflation, our state budget now provides 23 percent less funding each year for community and technical colleges than it did six years ago. Green River College and its peer institutions are in urgent need of the funding to allow us to continue to provide affordable training and education to our state’s workforce.

Cuts in funding to higher education in Washington are a disservice to the people of our state.

Last year, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics published data that illustrated how people who have earned a college degree will receive better wages and have lower unemployment than their counterparts who have not attained a degree.

A college degree has become essential to workers in today’s economy. It is the only means of ensuring a livable wage and consistent employment.

It benefits all of us to see higher education funded at the level endorsed by the State Board for Community and Technical Colleges.

The funds requested during this legislative biennium will ensure that we are able to provide basic education for adult learners and allow low-wage earning adults to train for higher-income, high-demand careers. It will fund advising and career planning on campuses to assist students in graduating on time so that they can join the workforce without incurring burdensome student loan debt that will prove detrimental to our state’s economy. And, it will fund a rapid-response fund that will allow colleges to work with

among developed nations in terms of business startups, behind nations such as Hungary and New Zealand.

This matters because small and medium-sized businesses create two-thirds of the 100 million jobs in our nation.

But isn’t the economy improving?

Barely.

One quarter of decent growth is followed by a quarter of slow

students. How would current education programs work with this new proposal? How would this affect current college students who already are paying for their education?

Would a 2.5 GPA be sufficient to offer students two years of community college?

What about students who are finishing up their education in universities? Could the proposal benefit these students as well? Would this be more effective than attempting to lower the cost of tuition for all schools?

Paying for higher education is costly and this could have a significant impact on changing the future. I think this proposal has a strong potential to turn out well for bringing more students to be motivated for their education, but clearly a lot of work and careful thinking should be done to accomplish the focus of improving the nation’s education.

growth. While the national unemployment rate has dropped to 5.6 percent, part of that drop is because millions of people have simply given up trying to find work and are no longer counted as unemployed.

Middle-income families are losing ground and a record 47 million Americans – one-sixth of our population – are on food stamps.

While welfare and social spending provide a safety net in a weak economy, the only real solution to unemployment is to create more jobs. [ more BRUNELL page 7 ]

In observance of Black History Month, the Kent Black Action Commission (KBAC) has announced plans for its third annual Black Legislative Day trip to Olympia on Feb. 20.

The trip has been organized for the purpose of affording students and concerned citizens an opportunity to interact with their state representatives in the halls of the state capital.

KBAC has scheduled a group talk with Sen. Joe Fain (R-Auburn) and Rep. Tina Orwall (D-Des Moines). There will be a tour of the legislative building, including a photo opportunity in the congressional chamber.

[ BRUNELL from page 6 ] But those jobs will be harder to come by if entrepreneurs stop opening the businesses that employ people.

Jim Clifton, Chairman and CEO of Gallup, writes, “[Wall Street and the White House] both tell us, ‘The economy is coming back.’ Let’s get one thing clear: This economy is never truly coming back unless we reverse the birth and death trends of American businesses.”

Two of the most formidable obstacles facing entrepreneurs are high taxes and excessive regulation, especially for cashstrapped startups. Unfortunately, the Obama Administration has aggressively pursued both.

The U.S. has the highest corporate tax rate in the world, yet President Obama’s 2015 budget includes $2 trillion in new taxes over the next decade.

While the president says he’s taxing only the wealthy, the taxes will hit many small business owners who file taxes as individuals.

Then, there are the regulations.

The Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) says federal regulations cost Americans $1.9 trillion a year and notes that regulators imposed 3,541 new regulations in 2014 alone. Continuing the juggernaut, the administration unveiled 300 new regulations in the first seven days of 2015.

A CEI study released in January reported, “If federal regulations were a country, their cost would amount to the world’s 10th largest economy.”

While reasonable regulations are

[ OUR TURN from page 6 ] community businesses to provide training and assistance when local business needs emerge.

These goals will benefit the colleges and the communities they serve. With more people joining the workforce, community and technical colleges can ensure greater prosperity for all of Washington. Our two-year colleges can help strengthen our communities with highly-trained individuals who can provide a greater contribution to the area in which they live.

Students, however, are not the only members of our college

necessary, unnecessary bureaucratic red tape needlessly increases consumer prices and saps money that could otherwise be used to expand businesses and hire more people. Added to that are the costs to comply with hundreds of state and local regulations.

The House of Representatives recently passed the Regulatory Accountability Act of 2015, which requires regulatory agencies to clearly document the cost of proposed regulations and consider less costly alternatives.

President Obama has vowed to veto the legislation.

Here in Washington, Gov. Inslee is taking a page directly from President Obama’s playbook. Inslee wants to increases taxes, impose costly new cap and trade legislation that would cost Washington employers $1 billion a year and start taxing investment income.

That’s a bad idea.

While our state’s economy might look good from the governor’s window and from the skyscrapers in downtown Seattle, 90 percent of Washington counties have unemployment rates above the national average.

As with President Obama, Gov. Inslee’s top priority must be creating jobs – not piling more taxes and costly regulations on the very people who create those jobs.

communities that require legislative attention during this session.

Without faculty and staff, a college simply cannot function.

In the state of Washington, faculty and professional staff have foregone a salary increase since 2008. Gov. Jay Inslee has requested $28 million in state funding to be provided for compensation increases for faculty and staff, supported by tuition funds.

The State Board for Community and Technical Colleges is also requesting $10.2 million for salary increases for faculty who complete professional development courses to ensure they are bring-

Parties regroup to battle over student test scores once again Lawmakers, teachers and the state public schools chief are gearing up for another battle over whether student test scores should be used to evaluate teachers and principals.

State Sen. Steve Litzow, R-Mercer Island, introduced two bills last week that would require that results from state student assessments be calculated into teacher performance reviews, starting with the 2016-17 school year. Hearings on the bills are expected next week.

Federal education leaders are demanding that Washington chisel the requirement into law if the state wants to regain a waiver from the No Child Left Behind law.

The state lost the waiver last year, meaning the state and 297 public school districts couldn’t spend about $40 million in federal money the way they wanted. It also meant that 1,916 schools across the state were deemed failing by the U.S. Department of Education, and letters had to be sent to parents explaining why.

Through much of the 2014 legislative session, Litzow, Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn and Gov. Jay Inslee tried to get lawmakers onboard.

But they collided with the statewide teachers union, the Washington Education Association.

Its leaders staunchly oppose the federal dictate and insist that the evaluation process created by state lawmakers is working as intended, weeding out less-talented teachers.

The union flexed political muscle to keep most Democratic allies from bending.

And in a deliciously dramatic moment in the state Senate last session, a bill originally crafted by a Democratic senator to appease the feds was brought up for a vote by Litzow.

It was defeated 28-19, with 20 Democrats – including the original author, Sen. Rosemary McAuliffe of Bothell – and eight Republicans voting against the measure.

That didn’t end the scuffle.

In the ensuing days, Inslee met with U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan to verify what the state needed to do to avoid becoming the first to lose its waiver.

Then he and Dorn drafted a new bill and

ing the most current knowledge and expertise into the classroom.

At Green River, our dedicated faculty and professional staff have worked through this lack of funding with unwavering support for our students. It is often said that good deeds are their own reward, but it is only fair that our faculty is compensated for their work in a way that reflects their support of the college and the service we provide to students and the community.

Green River College needs your support to realize these goals. Let your state senators and representatives know that you support

tried to persuade lawmakers to vote on it, which they wouldn’t.

“I take my hat off to the WEA,” Dorn said in August of the teachers union. “They did a better job than we did. Maybe this time we can get past the rhetoric and propaganda and do what’s right for kids.”

Litzow isn’t predicting how the legislative rematch will turn out. He thought he had enough Democrats in tow last year. He won’t make the same mistake this time.

“We’re going out and having conversations right now,” he said.

Inslee expended political capital last year trying to get lawmakers to implement a test-scores provision for evaluating teachers, and he has nothing to show for it. It’s not clear how hard he’ll push this go-round.

Litzow said he’s not spoken with the governor on the subject.

Superintendents of school districts mostly avoided the fray in 2014 but might be engaged this year.

At legislative hearings last fall and earlier this session, superintendents expressed frustration at receiving federal money they couldn’t spend due to restrictions related to the loss of the No Child Left Behind waiver.

A requirement to ensure student access to private tutors exposed some families to unscrupulous hard-sell tactics, the superintendents said.

Oh, and sending letters to parents telling them their child attends a failing school hurt morale, they said.

The WEA, meanwhile, is still opposed to using student test scores in evaluating teachers.

“It makes no sense to dramatically change our successful teacher evaluation system when Congress appears ready to rewrite the federal law,” said WEA spokesman Rich Wood. “To really help our state’s students, the Legislature should focus on its paramount duty to fully fund K-12 education this session.”

Let the battle begin.

Charles William “Bill” Iles On January 30, 2015, Charles William “Bill” Iles died peacefully in his sleep at the age of ninety five.

Bill was known by everyone for his endless kindness, generosity, patience, and profound integrity. He was a dedicated father to his four children and a generous grandfather to his five grandchildren. Deeply committed to education, Bill played a significant role in helping his children and grandchildren get college degrees. Bill unconditionally supported his family and respected their choices, never pushing his opinions or beliefs on others. He remained quietly contained and strengthened by his faith in God throughout his life.

Bill was a loving and romantic husband. For thirty years, he was happily married to the mother of his four children, Leona Auch, until her tragic death in an auto accident in 1977. Bill later married Pearl Dunbar, and they enjoyed 26 wonderful years together until her death in 2001. At a water aerobics class late in his life, he met Phyllis Cain, and they shared five happy years of marriage together.

Bill was born in a sod house on a Montana homestead on April 8, 1919, the second of seven children, but spent his early years in South Dakota. He paid for his college education bucking hay in the summers and working during the school year. In his early twenties, he learned to fly from a local crop duster, and in 1941, he became a Navy flight instructor. Bill later flew transport missions to bases in the South Pacific, the Aleutian islands, and Point Barrow, Alaska (where he supplied efforts to drill the first oil wells), and he helped map territory north of the Arctic Circle. These flights were often undertaken in hazardous weather conditions and less than ideal runways.

After five years of active service, Bill spent 15 years in the Navy Reserve flying missions around the world, ultimately ending his career as a Commander, having flown everything from PBYs to DC4s.

Bill attended Northwest Nazarene College in Idaho for two years (where he met Leona). He received a Bachelor of

Arts degree in 1941 from Augustana College in South Dakota, and went on to receive two degrees from the University of Washington, a Bachelor of Science in 1946 and a Master of Education in 1961. In 1946, Bill began teaching as a high school chemistry and mathematics instructor at Kent Meridian High School in Kent, Washington. He quickly became the business manager of the Kent School District and then spent fifteen years as the Superintendent of Schools. Bill oversaw the building of 24 schools during his tenure, a time of unprecedented growth for the district. In 1972, the family moved to Olympia, Washington, where Bill accepted a job in the Washington Office of Public Instruction as the Supervisor of Teacher Certification for the state. After Leona’s death, he moved to Seattle and became a Professor of Education at Seattle Pacific University.

In 1982, Bill retired from professional life. He and Pearl moved to Olympia where he enjoyed tending his extensive vegetable garden, as well as fishing, golfing, and working on his home and grounds. He became an expert on fruit trees, pruning, espaliering, and grafting with much success. He cut, split, and hauled eight cords of firewood every year. Bill and Pearl canned and smoked food to the delight of their many guests, hosted memorable holiday dinners, and traveled the world.

In 1993, Bill and Pearl moved to Whidbey Island to be near their children and grandchildren. He continued to be active in church and Kiwanis International, and was valued by everyone with whom he worked. Bill’s dry sense of humor will be missed by all that loved him.

Bill was preceded in death by his son Charles William Jr. He is survived by his wife Phyllis Iles; three of his children, Gwenann Kroon (M. Thomas), Robert Iles (Susan), and David Iles (Esther); and his five grandchildren, Tobin Iles, Andrea Foster (Drew), Alexandra Hedin (Adam), Brittney Kroon, and Elijah Iles, as well as five great-grandchildren. Services will held on Saturday, February 21, at 1:00 pm at Trinity Lutheran Church in Freeland Washington.

Donations may be made in lieu of flowers to Seattle Pacific University School of Education or The Northwest Chapter of the National MS Society.

Albertine Louise Hermans

Albertine Louise Hermans, beloved sister, wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

Bertie passed away on Monday, February 2, 2015, at Good Samaritan Hospital with her beloved son, daughterin-law and granddaughter by her side.

She was fighting another battle with pneumonia.

Bertie was adored and cherished by all who met her. Born Albertine Louise Dom, she grew up in Indonesia on a plantation with her family, and spent over 2 years of her teenage life in Prisoner of War camps during WWII. After the war she joined camp survivors and boarded a ship to Holland, where she successfully completed her 4 years of high school in 1 year. She then joined the Dutch Army and transferred back to Indonesia, where she met and married John Hermans.

In 1952 Bertie and John immigrated to the United States and soon after had their first child, Myra. Two years later their son Robert was born. They settled in Washington in 1956. She was the heart and soul of her family and gratefully was able to spend much of her life with them. Bertie and John were active members of the Square Rooters square dance club and gained many cherished friends through the years.

Bertie is preceded in death by her husband John in 2012. She is survived by her sister Itty, son Bob and daughter-in-law Joni, daughter Myra and son-in-law Mike, granddaughters Jennifer (& Andy) and Kristin, grandson John, and great-grandchildren Avery, Malin, Evan and LJ. Bertie was a rare Angel on Earth and will be remembered by her kindness, strength and compassion. She is greatly missed by all. A memoriam of her life will be held at a future date by her family in her hometown.

KENT UNITED GREEN WINS U-12 STATE SOCCER CHAMPIONSHIP Kent United Green captured the Under-12 state championship with a 3-2 win over Seattle United-Shoreline on Sunday at the Starfire Sports complex in Tukwila.

Kent United beat the Mercer Island football club 1-0 in the semifinals on Saturday to earn a spot in the championship match. Teams competed in the state tournament at several sites across the state before advancing to the semifinals at Starfire, the same complex where the Seattle Sounders practice.

Kent United has 29 boys and girls teams in its program from ages U-11 to U-18.

BY ROSS COYLE

rcoyle@kentreporter.com

Emmanuel Daigbe is ready. His coach says so, he thinks so, and now there are only three weeks and five athletes between him and a Class 4A high school state wrestling title.

The soft-spoken KentMeridian wrestler and wide receiver is working to stay focused on the prize.

Last year Daigbe made it to the state championships as a sophomore, with an impressive record that featured less than five falls.

A split-second decision dropped him to second place in the 170-pound division.

Coming out strong at the Mat Classic, Daigbe says that he was “shaken up, because there’s a lot of people watching and it’s a new place to be because I was at the Tacoma Dome for the first time.”

The nerves got to him, and he took a pin in the final round off of a single mistake.

“I didn’t know if I was gonna get thrown,” he said. “I

Kent-Meridian’s Emmanuel Daigbe takes an undefeated record in the regional tournament this weekend. He placed second at state last year and will chase a state title this year at the Mat Classic. ROSS COYLE, Kent Reporter came up the wrong way and I didn’t see it coming and I got caught. In the finals if you got caught, it’s hard to come back so you can’t make those little mistakes.”

In the year since, Daigbe has looked at improving more than just his technique, strength and speed.

Bronson to play football at Temple

BY ERIC MANDEL emandel@covingtonreporter.com

A student approaches Josiah Bronson with a mock microphone and asks, “How does it feel to get college paid for?” Another follows, “How does it feel to be moving so far away from your family?”

Bronson, sitting solemnly behind a table in the Kentwood High School library, responds the same way to both questions, slightly

It’s also about mental resilience, he says, as he moves into regional tournament on Friday at Kent-Meridian.

The Mat Classic is Feb. 2021 at the Tacoma Dome.

Last year Daigbe went through a difficult time as he worked to secure himself a slot in district matches, but

altering his intonation with each: “I’m only here so I won’t get fined.”

The crowd of 25-plus of Bronson’s teammates and family members laughed at the Kentwood senior’s best Marshawn Lynch impression on Feb. 4, moments prior to signing his letter of intent to play football at Temple University in Philadelphia.

Bronson was rated as a threestar recruit on Rivals.com, with a gaudy 4.75 second 40-yard dash time to go with his 6-foot-5-inch, 265-pound frame. The Kentwood defensive end, who finished the 2014 season as a first-team Associated Press all-state selection at defensive end, picked the full scholarship offer from the Owls over multiple other schools, including the University of New Mexico.

during his 2015 season he’s seen nothing but victories as he coasts on a 26-0 record.

He credits his football season as a wide receiver to helping him shrug off mistakes, saying that he learned how to let mistakes go and put them behind him while focusing on his goals.

Bronson’s head coach, Rex Norris, said Ohio State University showed interest in Bronson, but only as a walk-on player, which means no scholarship.

Temple’s defensive line coach Elijah Robinson played football with Bronson’s oldest brother, John, at Penn State University. John played in a total of three games in the NFL as a tight end for the Arizona Cardinals during the 2005 and 2006 seasons. Josiah’s other brother, Demitrius, a running back on the Seattle Seahawks practice squad during the 2014 season who recently signed a contract with the Seahawks for the 2015 season, attended Josiah’s signing celebration.

Josiah visited Temple on Jan. 23, his only college visit, and came away impressed with the school’s

Wrestling, he says, is much less forgiving of errors than football, where a dropped catch can be anyone’s fault and there are plenty of opportunities to correct for a mistake.

The season also taught him not to be overconfident and keep his mind in the game, instead of letting success get the better of him.

“During football, during our second game we got caught up with everything, and when we went against Todd Beamer we had chances to score but we made mistakes and that cost us the game,” he said. “Take the right steps, don’t make no mistakes, do the right things, listen to coaches, ‘cuz they know what they’re talkin’ about.”

As he works his way through challengers this season, Daigbe remembers that mistakes are costly, but it’s the pin, not a score, that often determines a wrestling victory.

“If you’re losing 7-0, if you pin the dude you win,” he says.

business program, campus and coaches. He expects to receive playing time as a freshman, though Norris told The Reporter he doubts it will be that easy.

“He has the athleticism to do that, but the hardest place to get playing time (when young) is on the line,” he said. “They are so much stronger.”

Temple, which plays in the Atlantic Athletic Conference, finished the 2014 season with a 6-6 record, four more wins than the previous season.

Josiah officially signed his scholarship at 7 a.m., during national signing day, but engaged in the commitment pageantry performed by hundreds of other football prospects around the country. [ more BRONSON page 11 ]

The Seattle Thunderbirds rallied for two goals in the third period to defeat the Kelowna Rockets 2-1 in a Western Hockey League game on Tuesday night at the ShoWare Center.

Everyone should consider whether to sign a power of attorney. Without it, no one (not even a spouse) has authority to act for you. Guardianship may be required if decisions have to be made when you are unable to do so.

Some tips for renovating your garden for this spring

Soroptimists organize bra drive

THE GARDENER

de-cluttering your indoor space with a fresh look and clean sweep of the overgrown, overdone and overwhelming plants and design elements in your outdoor space. If you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it to my seminar at the show on opening day, hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the top five tips for renovating your garden this spring: Marianne Binetti

February blooms with the Northwest Flower and Garden Show and this year the five-day show in Seattle runs through Sunday.

In honor of Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Romance Blossomsâ&#x20AC;? is the show theme.

There will be over an acre of gorgeous display gardens with more than 350 marketplace exhibitors.

Romance is a great theme for making this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show a date night, weekend in the city or as weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen in past years, a beautiful site for a marriage proposal.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be inspired to start a new garden or renovate your old outdoor space by learning from the free seminars at the show, and new this year is a contest called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Garden Warsâ&#x20AC;? that pits novice gardeners against each other to design and install an instant garden. Just like a TV reality show.

Garden renovation is a lot like

1.

Prune, snip and saw away the overgrown.

The gray weather in Western Washington demands that maximum sunlight be allowed into windows and any homeowner that hates to prune will find that the inside of their homes grows darker as trees and shrubs around the house grow larger. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t procrastinate with the excuse that the season is not quite right for pruning. Prune anyway.

FOR THE REPORTER

Help Soroptimist International of Kent collect new or gently-used bras and/or camisoles to free girls and women in Third World countries around the globe.

Donations support Free The Girls,

2. Grow your health by planting more herbs and vegetables.

Simple ideas like adding a pot of mint near the back door for herbal tea or a bed of basil in a hot spot for summer fresh pesto will make even the most inexperienced gardener a success as a backyard farmer.

3.

Start a collection and grow what you love. Life is short, live with more passion. Take out the back lawn and replaced with raised beds for your growing collection of dahlias or just make this the year you finally get rid of the junipers and design a more pleasing display of compact or dwarf conifers.

4.

Rejuvenate the gardener with practical moves. Gardens have been sanctuaries ever since Eden and making your outdoor space a place to distress and enjoy

a nonprofit organization dedicated to ending human trafficking in developing countries.

Please bring new or gently used bras and/or camisoles to Redâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wine Bar at Kent Station, 321 Ramsey Way, Suite 110, or another donation

is as simple as practicing mindful moves such as gentle stretching while gardening. Use the right tool to avoid muscle sprains. Decide to â&#x20AC;&#x153;gardenâ&#x20AC;? instead of â&#x20AC;&#x153;doing yard workâ&#x20AC;? and dare to leave the cell phone indoors. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll plug into the sounds and sites of nature as you allow your mind to slow down and wander while actually enjoying the repetitive but instant gratification of weeding, watering and planting.

5.

Move your plants. Rearranging the furniture inside your home can open up a whole new perspective and rearranging your landscape plants can have the same effect. We live in a mild winter area and February is the perfect time to image that your plants have wheels. Large plants may require lots of digging to remove and replace into new planting holes but we all need more exercise and putting the right plant in

location, now through Feb. 28.

THUNDERSTRUCK! DANCE FOR HEART â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â an entertainment-filled charity event to support the American Heart Association â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â returns at 7 p.m. Friday to the Kentridge High School Performing Arts Center, 12430 SE 208th St. Proceeds benefit the AHA. The lineup includes performances from the Chatelaines, Sparkles Cheerleaders (special needs kids), gymnastics and multicultural dancers from salsa to hip hop, Yoga Club, Steppers and Ballers, Little Charger Preschoolers, and Rockers who sing, dance and play the drums.

The program raised more than $3,000 last year, with the goal of raising more than $5,000 this year, according to Denise Wiskow, a sports medicine instructor at Kentridge and the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director.

The program is part of a month-long devotion to heart health. A school-wide Red Out Day is on Friday, National Heart Day, when many students and staff wear red to support the AHA. Kentridge also observed Heart Awareness Week, Feb. 6-13. Students hosted awareness events each day during lunch.

CLASS ACTS Rotary Club of Kent recently honored two Kentwood High School students as Students of the Month in the category of fine/performing arts. Pictured, from left, are Rotary Club of Kent President Dawn Colston; student Macy Mackey, student Makani Mafua and Rotarian Erik Olsen. COURTESY PHOTO
