City Council overturns mayor’s veto on B&O tax

BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

Mayor Suzette Cooke accused the City Council of treating the Kent Chamber of Commerce as another council member after it overturned

her veto about how to spend business and occupation (B&O) tax revenue.

The council voted 5-2 on Tuesday night in favor of an amended ordinance for the city to spend all B&O revenue (after staff costs) on street

repairs rather than a $4.7 million cap with excess funds used to pay down internal city debt in the capital improvement fund, which helps pay for streets, parks, information [ more B&O page 5 ]

Martrice Grant held up photos of his 1-year-old baby daughter at a Kent Police press conference on Monday and told people to come forward to help solve the murder of Malijah Grant on April 16 in Kent.

“This is what this is about,” Grant said as he displayed photos of his baby daughter in front of television news cameras and newspaper photographers at Kent City Hall.

“It’s not about me or her (Lisa Lynch, the baby’s mother who stood next to

him), it’s about her. Period.

Point blank. The news has taken me to be some hardened gangster. I’m not.

What gangster gets respect out of this? My family has been targeted for gang violence that has nothing to do with us.”

Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas told the media the shooting death of Grant is gang related and that the investigation has determined anywhere from 12 to 15 shootings between mid-March and the shooting of the baby have taken place between rival gangs [ more PLEA page 4 ]

A record crowd of 8,737 people attended the Kent School District’s annual Technology Expo on April 30 at the ShoWare Center.

Visitors included educators from more than 120 countries participating in the Global Educator Exchange at Microsoft’s headquarters in Redmond and members of the National School Board Association. The Kent School District was one of the National School Board Association’s eduction technology site visits.

The expo featured 146 booths, presented by about 800 students and 150 teachers from across the school district, as well as local business. For the first time, about 30 students from around the world who were a part of Microsoft’s Student Ambassador Program also participated in the expo.

Displays highlighted the use of technology in classrooms in a variety of ways, including reality babies, robotics, smart tables and embroidery.

Attendees could interact with students, who were more than eager to share their projects.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;RABID FAN BANDITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; RECEIVES 10-YEAR PRISON SENTENCE FOR BANK ROBBERIES

BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

A 31-year-old man received a 10-year prison sentence on Tuesday for his involvement last year in more than a dozen bank robberies, including ones in Kent, Auburn, Renton, Covington, Federal Way and Des Moines.

Robert Cal Adams III was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Seattle, according to a U.S. Attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office media release, which listed Adams as being from King County.

He was known as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rabid Fan Banditâ&#x20AC;? by the FBI because of the various hats with sports logos he wore in a string of robberies.

The investigation also revealed Adamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; involvement in a second string of bank robberies dubbed the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Buddy Banditâ&#x20AC;? bank robberies where juveniles were recruited, trained and sent in to rob tellers using notes almost identical to the one Adams used when solo.

The salaries paid to mayors and city council members in other cities and a lack of recent pay hikes could play a large role in whether the Kent mayor and City Council members get salary increases.

Kentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newly formed Independent Salary Commission met for the first time on April 28 to begin talks about whether the mayor and council deserve pay raises and if so, how much should they get.

Mayor Suzette Cooke appointed the five board members and the council approved the appointments.

The council formerly had the power to give itself and the mayor pay increases, but hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done so for at least 10 years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the lack of raises over the last 10 years is going to be significant, that really surprised me when I first heard that was the case,â&#x20AC;? said Greg Haffner, a local attorney and board chairman, during an inter-

If the salary commission decides to give pay increases, the higher pay will go into the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget for next year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once you make that decision it becomes an obligation to go into the budget and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll start at that level,â&#x20AC;? City Finance Director Aaron BeMiller told the board.

view after the meeting.

City staff, from the Human Resources Department, handed out figures about what other comparable cities are paying elected officials. The cities were chosen based on similar populations and government structure, such as run by a mayor rather than a city manager.

The $102,192 per year salary for the Kent mayor ranks as the lowest among Everett, Renton, Auburn, Bellingham and Federal Way. The part-time council pay of $13,752 in Kent ranks fourth out of the six cities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It looks like our mayor position is way underpaid compared to other cities but I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t looked at the data to see if mayors in other cities have comparable roles to our mayor,â&#x20AC;?

On Monday, investigators also released still images of the suspect vehicle that was caught on nearby surveillance, fleeing from the crime scene. The suspect vehicle is believed to be a black, four-door sedan with dark tinted windows.

The vehicle has yet to be positively identified by make and model.

People are responding to the press conference pleas.

“We have had several tips come in,” Kent detective Melanie Robinson said in an email Tuesday evening. “Investigators are following up on them.”

Homicide investigators hope the additional information leads to the arrest of those responsible.

The shooting occurred at about 4:25 p.m. at the intersection of Lake Fenwick Road and Reith Road. The 1-year-old girl was shot in the head while riding in her parents car. She died two days later at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

Grant lived in Kent with her parents.

“Investigators are working tirelessly, exhausting any and all resources, in an effort to locate additional witnesses, with the ultimate expectation of locating those responsible for this unspeakable act,” said Kent Det. Melanie Robinson.

Kent Police said the shooting is gang related, despite earlier reports that suggested it was a random

incident.

Police said the incident is connected to a series of shootings that have occurred between Seattle and Tacoma and cities in between.

Invesigators need the public’s help locating a vehicle of interest – a gray, four-door 2007 Pontiac Grand Am, with Washington license plate 678ZRL. Authorities said the vehicle has a burned out rear passenger side break light.

According to investigators, the gray vehicle was stolen from Renton and has yet to be recovered.

The vehicle, investigators said, had occupants who actually witnessed the shooting. The occupants of the vehicle did not stop during the shooting and have not made attempts to contact the police to be interviewed, investigators said.

The Pontiac Grand Am was observed by witnesses closely following the suspect vehicle at the time of the actual shooting, police said.

One witness was able to capture a picture of the Pontiac Grand Am behind the suspect vehicle as the suspect vehicle was fleeing the scene of the crime, investigators said.

Anyone with information that could help in the investigation is asked to call 911, or contact the Kent Police Department tip line at 253-856-5808.

The change will go into effect in January 2017. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s positioning the Chamber of Commerce in a position of being an eighth city council member,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said during an interview after the vote. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit curious to me. I as a past executive director of a chamber (Renton) get it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a coup for the chamber to have had that great of influence on members of city government.â&#x20AC;?

Under the current code, the first $700,000 collected of a $4.7 million cap goes to cover staff costs for six employees with $4 million to street repairs and any extra revenue (estimated to be about $800,000 per year) used to pay down debt.

Cooke issued her first veto during her 10 years in office two weeks ago when the council first approved the ordinance on a 4-3 vote.

The council needed at least five votes to overturn the veto. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are way underfund-

[ SALARY from page 3 ] If the commission approves pay increases (the city wants a decision by July 1), the ordinance would be subject to a referendum petition, where someone or a group could gather enough signatures from registered voters in the city to put the salary increase on a ballot measure to determine whether pay hikes should be given.

ed,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said as the city continues to scramble to fund projects. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will pay off the internal debt within the next two years with that money, but then it straps the council with the only option for those dollars on roads. And it appears those are road options that the chamber wants to have done.â&#x20AC;?

Council members Les Thomas, Bill Boyce, Jim Berrios, Brenda Fincher and Dana Ralph voted in favor of the ordinance.

Dennis Higgins and Deborah Ranniger were against it.

Berrios said prior to the vote that when the council first approached the chamber in 2012 about adopting a B&O tax (which became effective in 2013), it told business leaders the revenue would be spent on street repairs. Berrios wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t on the council at that time but had chamber membership. He and his wife own the Golden Steer Steak â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Rib House on East Hill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was one of those busi-

nesses that sat in on the initial meetings with the chamber where city council (members) presented to us a packet of projects they wanted to use this ordinance for,â&#x20AC;? Berrios said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In going through that process the initial reaction of the business community was a lot of resistance. I have to hand it to the leadership of the chamber that took a presence to work with them and come up with a solution to address the infrastructure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We submitted a letter of conditions we would like to see because we are paying the bill. â&#x20AC;Ś Then what ended up happening with the final ordinance, I walked away that as a business community we were misled. It really bothered me, and frankly thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I ran for city council. â&#x20AC;Ś If you say you are going to do one thing and end up doing something else with that money, there is something fundamentally wrong with that process.â&#x20AC;?

Boyce said he remembers

telling the business community the money would be used for street repairs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was our intent to ask for the B&O money,â&#x20AC;?

Boyce said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have serious problems with our roads.â&#x20AC;?

Higgins and Ranniger opposed the measure in part because of concerns about what the change could do to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bond ratings, which were recently upgraded by Moodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Investors Service and Standard & Poorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Ranniger also added it creates an imbalance with how the city spends money. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The mayor in her veto mentioned that $7.2 million city dollars are spent on roads in contrast to $500,000 on capital for parks and $1.7 million on IT (information technology) projects,â&#x20AC;? Ranniger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will just make that imbalance much larger.â&#x20AC;?

Cooke said the council created more financing problems for itself by restricting B&O funds only to streets.

ahead of time if the team will make the playoffs.

Repairs and maintenance costs were about $30,000 higher because the arena paid a contract for a year worth of services up front rather than spreading the cost throughout the year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By the end of the year that line item will be at or below budget,â&#x20AC;? Voter said.

SMG officials projected an operating loss of $463,000 in 2015 at the start of the year. The arena lost $752,324 last year, the highest loss since it opened in 2009. ShoWareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total revenue losses are $3.2 million in six years.

But other encouraging signs for events later in the year include an anticipated sellout of 5,000 for psychic Theresa Caputo on June 7 and an expected sellout of 6,000 for the Scorpions concert on Oct. 9. More than 4,500 tickets were sold over one weekend for the Scorpions.

â&#x20AC;˘ City Council annual salaries (part-time jobs) Everett: $26,964 Bellingham: $24,108 Federal Way: $13,800 Kent: $13,752 Auburn: $11,700 Renton: $11,400

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is very problematic for the council to limit the use of a general tax as the B&O tax is everywhere else,â&#x20AC;? Cooke said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No city has dedicated the full (B&O) tax to one thing.

No city has strapped it at 100 percent to one particular type of expenditure as this council has.â&#x20AC;?

The dispute between the mayor and the council about the B&O tax heated up during last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget deliberations when Cooke proposed raising the tax to bring in $3 million per year to the general fund. The council never took any action on her proposal.

Use traffic camera money to restore parks On page one of the May 1 edition of the Kent Reporter, there are stories about the city taking in $1 million from the school traffic cameras in one year and a story about city park facilities falling apart due to lack of funding.

Hmmm, seems like a problem and a solution right next to one another.

Is there a valid reason some – if not all – of that traffic fine money can’t go to the restoration of park facilities?

The city is looking for creative solutions to revenue issues, so here’s one idea to consider: use the revenue generated by the traffic camera tickets to fund park restoration.

Remembering mom on this special weekend Like millions of others, on Sunday, Mother’s Day, I will remember my own mother.

Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on May 22. 1929, she grew up in Oroville, Wash., one of four children of an apple orchard owner and his wife.

She died at home in Auburn of cancer on May 21, 2006.

Between those poles, Irene Whale lived a good life, had six children

(wanted eight) and enjoyed a passel of grandchildren.

As the years since her death continue to bank up, what strikes me more and more is how complex she was.

And I wonder at her many funny quirks, her dichotomies, her stories and the side of my mother, now past all knowing.

COMMENTARY

“Do you approve of teachers’ one-day walkouts?”

Eileen Ely

?

Question of the week:

Green River College has always been and remains to be a valuable part of the communities it serves.

There has been speculation that the recent change in the college’s name means that there has been a change in the mission of the school. The name change at Green River signifies the commitment the college has made to its students, community and business partners. This commitment is evidenced by the year-long process of consideration of the name change, which involved town-hall meetings and input from students, faculty, staff and community members.

As a community college, Green River has an open-enrollment policy. This means that the college educates community members from every walk of life.

The college offers a variety of programs, from trades to health care, aviation to business, and liberal arts transfer curriculum.

All of the offerings at Green River are programs that fulfill the educational needs of our communities, satisfying the demand for welleducated, highly-trained individuals. While the college strives to serve the greatest number of community members, from a financial standpoint, it cannot be everything to everyone.

Funding for public education remains a challenge at every level in the state of Washington, and Green River College is no exception. However, the administration has worked very hard to maintain staffing levels and grow the school while remaining responsible stewards of the public trust.

While other colleges within Washington’s community and technical colleges have closed more than 560 programs since 2009, Green River College has sustained programs.

Unfortunately, the college cannot continue to support programs that have high costs or low enrollments.

Things I once could have chatted with her about over lunch or a cup of coffee.

Some things my mother kept to herself, and that makes it harder to write about her than of my father.

Where he was effusive, emotional, and on the surface, she knew how to fold herself up as quickly and neatly as a tortilla.

The “do not tread” signs were kindly put up, but they were firm.

contract for Calvin Watts, Kent’s new school district superintendent.

Watts’ $250,000 a year salary is $76,383 more a year than Gov. Jay Inslee, who, as we know, is only responsible for every school district in the entire state of Washington.

In addition, Watts’ salary is only $150,000 a year less than the president of the United States, who we all can agree handles more pressing day-today matters than a city’s school district.

If I were the governor of the state of Washington or the president of the United States, I would seriously consider stepping down from my office and apply for a considerably less demanding but no less lucrative position within the Kent School District.

– Jon Weerts [ more LETTERS page 10 ]

As she once told my sister, Carole, when she was a little kid: “Look, I’m your mother, I’m not your friend.”

Oh, but she wasn’t stodgy, in fact she was always ready to join in the fun.

Like all of her children, I will never forget hilarious games of Pit that we thought had ended for the evening, only to hear her “hee hee hee” in the next room, which knocked us over again with fresh gusts of laughter.

She certainly had her own take on [ more WHALE page 10 ]

www.kentreporter.com [ OUR TURN from page 6 ] new money. Instead, the State funding at Green River College has steadily declined. In the 2009-2010 school year, state funding accounted for 66.6 percent of Green River Collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual budget. By this year, that percentage shrunk to 48.8 percent.

In 2011, the Legislature passed a two-year, 3-percent cut in compensation for state employees, including community college faculty and staff.

Green River College made a decision during these difficult budget times to maintain programs and staff without layoffs. In fact, classified staff was the only employee group at Green River to take a salary cut, as mandated by the state Legislature.

Maintaining staffing levels was possible, during this period, because the college experienced a sharp increase in enrollment, from under 5,500 statefunded full-time equivalent students in 2009 to more than 6,500 in 2011.

In 2013, the Legislature allocated funding to restore the 3-percent salary reduction. Since classified employees had taken a 3-percent pay reduction in salaries, they received a 3-percent restoration last summer. But this was not

restored funds brought the budget back to the 2011 baseline.

And now Green River College faces new challenges.

With the ending of the Great Recession, community colleges across the nation, in the state of Washington, and in the Puget Sound region are all finding their enrollments dropping.

As more jobs become available, enrollment drops at community colleges. As cities and businesses across the nation have experienced during difficult economic times, Green River College has an ongoing responsibility to be fiscal stewards of taxpayer dollars and work within the confines of the budget.

The notice given about the possibility of eliminating programs was provided to programs with low enrollments, or those that cannot sustain themselves financially. While we all wait to see what the Legislature will decide on education, the fact remains that the college must make changes in its budget â&#x20AC;&#x201D; regardless of the action taken by the Legislature to make up for losses in revenue.

Great strides have already been made through the reduction-in-force pro-

cess. Leslie Kessler, chair of the Green River College Instructional Council and Early Childhood Education faculty, met with Dr. Derek Brandes, vice president of instruction on May 1, and proposed a solution that will allow parent-child Education to remain open at the college and reduce the costs for the program.

The college is hopeful that other faculty will follow Ms. Kesslerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s example of innovation and creativity to ensure that the other programs proposed for closure can remain open and viable for our community and our students.

As the college enters its 50th year of serving our communities, college leadership is mindful of sustainability for the next 50 years. Green River College will remain committed to student success and working to meet the needs of its partners. We value our dedicated faculty and staff, and want to ensure the best work environment possible today, and for the coming years.

We remain confident that a financial solution can be found that matches the collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission with economic realities.

Dr. Eileen Ely is president of Green River College. Pete Lewis, former Auburn mayor, is chair of the collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of trustees.

Taxes and spending The May 1 political cartoon is not correct.

Under the Republican plan, current revenue from taxes will allow for an increased spending of 8 percent â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which the Republican plan proposes.

The Democrats want to raise taxes. I think the governor wanted 15 percent.

The Democratic House was somewhere in between.

Compromise should not mean needing to raise taxes. The only way that would be a compromise would be if the Republicans proposed to reduce taxes (say to keep spending levels flat).

Then there could be a compromise that started with a position of equality and integrity. Otherwise, the Democrats could just ask for way more than they wanted or needed and compromise down to an enormous increase â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like what is being proposed.

How many of you are getting an 8-percent raise? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dean Hazelton

Meridian High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Team 3221 team qualified for the district championship.

Out of 64 teams from the Pacific Northwest, KentMeridian finished 33rd at the Pacific Northwest District Championship in Cheney last month. KentMeridian qualified for the championship based on its performance at district events earlier this year.

Rob Green, the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adviser, said he is pleased with the outcome of the season.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;They (the students) should be proud of themselves because they did it,â&#x20AC;?

Green said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our robot did exactly what we wanted.

We never thought it was the best.â&#x20AC;?

He attributed the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success this year to the studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience. The team had about 15 students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of the kids have been doing it for three or four years,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As they have built more robots, they have done better it at.â&#x20AC;?

The students spent a couple of hours after school each day and most week-

ends for six weeks working on their robot.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition, called Recycle Rush, simulated litter recycling and pickup. Teams were required to navigate their robots to pick up packing totes and stack them. The more totes they could gather and stack in two minutes the more points teams earned.

Nick Boyce, adviser of Kentridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s robotics team, said that although his team didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t qualify for the district championship, students were pleased with their robot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The mentors and I thought the kids did an amazing job,â&#x20AC;? Boyce said.

Marjory Lou (Moll) Clements

Marjory Lou (Moll) Clements, born April 17, 1923 to Louis Victor and Rescena Rose Moll in Lloydminster Saskatchewan, died peacefully at home in Kent, Washington, on May 2, 2015.

She, and her brother, Spencer David Moll, grew up on a small farm in Blackfoot, Alberta, Canada, and she became a US citizen after moving to Bellingham, Washington in 1941, where she gained her teachers certificate at Western Washington Teachers College in 1944.

While teaching elementary school, she met the love of her life, Larry Clements, and they have been married 67 years. Together, they successfully ran Larry Clements Construction Company, built the home they lived in for the next 57 wonderful years, and raised five children with love and devotion. Her life centered around family, God, and their truly amazing neighborhood. She taught us well and loved us dearly.

She is survived by her children Glenn Clements (wife, Cindy), Paul Clements (wife, Charli), Tim Clements (wife, Valerie), Lorri Peasley (husband, Kim), Ron Clements (wife, Rachel), 18 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren.

A Memorial Service, reception following, will be held at 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 9 at Valley View Christian Church, 25605 124th Ave. SE, in Kent.

to serve the community and really impact the quality life of a broader scope,” he said. “This new leadership challenge has been a longterm goal of mine as an educational leader, to serve as a superintendent, and I do mean to serve others and serve students as well as adults.”

Although Watts doesn’t officially start his new job until July 1, he has already begun the transition, learning as much he can about the district. He attended the district’s Technology Expo on April 30.

“My goals are, first and foremost, to look, to listen and to learn everything that I can to ensure that my transition is smooth and is informed,” he said, “so that when I am official, I’ll be able to, not only begin supporting the strategic plan, supporting the leadership that occurs at all of our schools and also serving our board of directors and supporting their work, but I’ll be able to do that in a much more effective way. So my goal right now is simply to look, listen and to learn before I lead.”

Watts said he believes learning about the district before taking over will make for a successful transition.

“One challenge is simply not knowing what you don’t know,

and that is the reason why I am a firm believer that before I make any decisions or recommendations, that I am going to become as informed as possible,” he said.

“So when I’m looking, I’m seeing thousands of individuals. When I’m talking to people I’m learning about what their needs are, what concerns and questions or commendations they have about the district, and what I learn from that will allow me to lead more effectively.”

Watts said he hopes to build upon what already exists in the district and community.

“I first want to build relationships with our students, our staff, our parents, our leaders and our community members,” he said.

“Secondly, I want to build connections and bridges with the broader community, with our faith-based organizations, our civic organizations, our business organizations and the broader community at large. And third, I want to build upon the successes and the rich traditions that have certainly shown up each and every day in the Kent School District.”

The district serves more than 70 square miles of South King County, including the cities of Kent and Covington, and portions of Auburn, Black Diamond, Maple Valley, Renton and SeaTac. It is one of the most diverse districts in the state with more than 130 languages spoken by its students and families.

[ COLLEGE from page 1 ] Per their contract, faculty have 30 days to present suggestions that could save the programs.

During the 2013-2014 school year, it cost the college $36,615 to offer the parent-child education program. The college spent $88,332 on salaries, including a $6,773 coordinator stipend, while tuition from the program only brought in $51,716. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our whole goal was to see if we could find a model

where we are operating in the black,â&#x20AC;? Brandes said.

Last week, Leslie Kessler, head of the parentchild education program, presented the college with a plan that would reduce program costs by offering fewer sections of the course while still serving the same number of participants.

Under the new operating model, six sessions of the course will be offered each quarter. In 2013-2014, an average of 10 sections were offered each quarter, serving a total of 451

students during the school year. Reducing the number of sections will bring the number of instructors needed down to two. At full capacity, six instructors taught the courses, Brandes said. With one retirement and having an instructor teach other courses in early childhood eduction, no instructors will lose their jobs because of the changes in the program structure, Brandes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Due to some creative thinking and flexibility, we were able to make that

work,â&#x20AC;? Brandes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very proud of (the faculty) for coming up with a solution.â&#x20AC;?

Parent-child education is a unique program, Brandes said, in that it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a typical degree program, but more of a community service the college provides to help equip parents in caring for and teaching their children.

The parent-child education program works in conjunction with cooperative preschools in the area. When parents enroll their child in one of the preschools, they also sign up for the course through Green River.

The courses teach parenting skills and set parents up to be involved in their childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education. Kessler said many parents who have taken the class are actively involved in organizations like the PTA when their children get older.

Brandes said the college has received several letters each day from past participants attesting to the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s value. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of all the proposed cuts, this program generated the most concern from the community,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People did not want to see us let go of the program.â&#x20AC;?

This is not the first time Kessler has had to modify

the program. She said that in 2011 she had to reduce the number of sections offered.

Parent-child education is a tuition-waived program, so parents pay a minimal cost to the college. The college receives state funding to cover some program costs.

Having fewer instructors for the program means that they will devote less time to working with the children in the preschools, Kessler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While I am glad to save the program, I am not glad to have to cut back,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Other programs As of Wednesday, no other plans to save additional programs had been presented to college officials.

Kessler, who is a member of the collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Instructional Council, said faculty are working together to try to come up with solutions.

Students, faculty and community members filled the Auburn City Council chambers Monday night in hopes of garnering support from the city to save the programs. More than 15 attendees, including Kessler, addressed the council during the public comments section of the meeting.

Kent seeks volunteers for cleanup event on May 16 Residents can participate in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Team Up 2 Clean Up Kentâ&#x20AC;? during a citywide litter cleanup event from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, May 16.

The city of Kent, Kent Downtown Partnership, Kent Station, Republic Services, the Lions Club and Down Home Catering are organizing the event.

Residents, neighborhood and faith-based organizations, civic groups, schools, youth organizations, businesses and families are encouraged to get involved with this citywide effort.

Following nearly an hour of public comment, Mayor Nancy Backus thanked the overflow crowd for attending the meeting and speaking on behalf of their programs. She said she was aware of the pending program cuts and has been in contact with college officials. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do not have any direct control over Green River Community College,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That does not mean, however, that we do not engage in conversations.â&#x20AC;?

She urged those present to take advantage of the 30-day period to come up with solutions to save the programs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am available to help in any way I can with creative thinking,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do encourage you all to be doing exactly what you did tonight and come together and work on creating ideas for keeping these programs going.â&#x20AC;?

Faculty also organized an informational picket and rally on Green Riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main campus on Wednesday.

Last week, students picketed in front of the new trades building, which is being built to house five programs, including auto body technology and carpentry.

Volunteers can pick up free gloves and trash bags and get directions to â&#x20AC;&#x153;hot spotsâ&#x20AC;? - the areas that need the most attention - by meeting at 8 a.m. at one of three locations: â&#x20AC;˘ Trinity Community Church parking lot, 3807 Reith Road (West Hill) â&#x20AC;˘ Kherson Park, 307 W.

Hydrangea First Editions White Diamonds: This is a pee gee hydrangea, which means it can take full sun and will not turn blue or pink but bloom in the summer with pointed white panicles fading to a creamy pink in the fall.

What makes this hydrangea easy to grow is that it is more compact than the typical hydrangea panicalata. This hydrangea survives our cold, damp winters and was introduced by Bailey Nurseries out of Minnesota, so you know it can handle a deep winter freeze and still flower.

The name â&#x20AC;&#x153;First Editionsâ&#x20AC;? in front of the cultivar name of â&#x20AC;&#x153;White Diamondsâ&#x20AC;?

Community invited to celebrate Public Works Week Residents don't often think about the public works employees who make their city run so smoothly.

It's taken for granted that water will flow from the tap, toilets will flush, potholes will be filled and trees will be trimmed. But once a year, the city of Kent encourages residents to reflect on the comfort and quality of life that public works employees help to provide.

Residents can learn about these services firsthand by attending a free event Monday, May 18, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the ShoWare Center, 625 W. James St. "We value our community and the role public works professionals play in keeping our city functioning," said Mayor Suzette Cooke.

"This event is designed to increase public awareness of their contributions."

means this hydrangea earned a patent for being a shrub that is different, improved and amazingly beautiful.

THE GARDENER

Choisya Sundance Mexican Orange: Here is an evergreen shrub that will thrive in the shade and offers not only fragrant white blooms but glistening gold new foliage every spring. Mexican Orange is not related to the citrus family but was given the common name due to the sweet smell of the blossoms that reminds California growers of orange blossoms.

In Western Washington, Choisya is a great substitute for rhododendrons under the filtered sunlight of tall evergreens as the lime green and gold foliage helps to light up the shaded areas of the garden. As an added surprise, the newly cut foliage can be brought indoors to use with cut flowers and the fresh citrus scent clings to the leaves long after the flowers have faded.

If you have a deep purple Japanese maple in your garden, pair it up with the golden foliage of Choisya Sundance Mexican Orange for a match made in designer heaven.

Marianne Binetti

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to invest in some new and exciting plant material.

We live in an age when science, marketing and a whole bunch of local nurseries make it possible for gardeners in Western Washington to have first dibs on these easy-togrow shrubs.

May is the month to search out the best new shrubs and trees when nurseries are well stocked and ripe with the promise of finding something new and different.

Among the many annual contributions Kent's public works employees provide are the following: â&#x20AC;˘ Treatment of more than 2.5 billion gallons of water to ensure it is safe to drink â&#x20AC;˘ Filling more than 1,800 potholes â&#x20AC;˘ Inspection/repair of 320 miles of city streets and over 300 miles of sidewalks Along with introducing individuals to careers in the trades, the free event will feature climb-on displays of public works equipment including a backhoe, excavator and snowplow.

Other highlights include interactive and informational displays and a scavenger hunt.

"The Department of Public Works plays a key and daily role in our city's growth, success and sustainability," said Public Works Director Tim LaPorte. "I'm proud of our work and excited to shine some light on our efforts to improve the overall quality of life for Kent residents."

Crape Myrtle Largest First Editions Coral Magic â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or Midnight Magic or Plum Magic.

Just when I thought I could not want another tree in my garden, along comes a winter hardy and mildew resistant crape myrtle.

Attractive peeling bark, clusters of vivid blooms in late summer and fall leaf color make this a tree or shrub that offers yearround appeal.

The big improvements mean that even if this crape Myrtle is hit by a freak snowstorm in early autumn, this heat-loving plant will come back from its established root system.

This shrubby tree would be a wonderful gift to anyone that admired the bright blooms in late summer on these trees in warmer climates, as they are usually found showing off in Texas and Southern California.

I have seen these hardy Crape Myrtyles for sale at local nurseries this spring.

My advice is to buy them early because once they flower in late summer every tree still left at the nursery will sell quickly.

Not only are the blooms arranged in large, showy clusters but the colors are

May 8, 2015 [17] A NEW MEXICAN RESTAURANT is scheduled to open at Kent Station by the end of May. Julian Ramos, founder of the popular Agave Cocina & Cantina restaurant in Redmond is opening a second location at Kent Station, according to a media release from the shopping center. The site is on Ramsay Way at the former Calâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restaurant location, across from The Ram. The site features a rustic, brickwalled space with high, open ceilings defined by massive steel beams.

There is a cozy bar, open kitchen and gracious interior seating. Two fireplaces and two patios (one year-

Mexican art and handy-crafts acquired by Ramos from San Cayetano, near Guadalajara (Jalisco) Mexico, where he was born and raised will farther enhance the already attractive space. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had been looking for an additional restaurant location for a while,â&#x20AC;?

Kentridge’s Jamison Hall of Fame bound

KENTRIDGE WINS JUDO LEAGUE TITLE Kentridge recently repeated as Puget Sound High School Judo League champions with an undefeated 8-0 season.

The Chargers downed KentMeridian 85-60 and turned away Kentlake, 55-30, at the final league four-way meet at Kentwood High School.

BY HEIDI SANDERS

hsanders@kentreporter.com

Kentridge High’s Dave Jamison will be recognized for his success as a boys basketball coach when he is inducted into the Washington Interscholastic Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame this summer.

Jamison has coached the Chargers for the past 15 seasons, taking his team to the Class 4A state tournament six times, including the championship game in 2007 when it to Ferris 68-61 in two overtimes. He has a 291-159 record in his 18year career, including three years he coached at KentMeridian before taking over at Kentridge.

Jamison is one of eight coaches who will be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

The Western Washington induction ceremony is July 23 at Allenmore Events Center in Tacoma.

Jamison found out last fall that he had been nominated for the Hall of Fame, when he was contacted by Hall of Fame representatives asking him questions about his coaching career.

But it still surprised Jamison when he found out

Dave Jamison, Kentridge boys basketball coach, will be inducted this summer into the Washington Interscholastic Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame. FILE PHOTO, Kent Reporter he had been selected for induction.

“I know that there are not that many guys that are actively coaching that are getting in,” he said. “I thought it happens when you retire or are getting really old. I thought maybe someday it might happen, but I didn’t really think about it.”

Ryan Hansen, Auburn High School boys basketball coach, nominated Jamison

for the honor. Hansen said he met Jamison 13 years ago after being hired by Auburn.

“Dave kind of reached out to me and right away made me feel like a peer,” Hansen said.

Jamison has been a great mentor throughout the years, Hansen said.

“His teams are consistent,” Hansen said. “They are always near the top of the league… It is easy to

recognize a team that is coached by Jamison. They are disciplined, hard working, selfless.”

Hansen said he didn’t have second thoughts about nominating a current coach after looking at other coaches in the state who have been inducted during their coaching career.

“I just felt like coach Jamison is of that same caliber,” Hansen said. “I thought

he was worthy of a nomination. I didn’t know if it would go through. If not now, then certainly later.”

Hansen said he was excited when he learned Jamison would be inducted this year.

“Coach Jamison has a lot respect among his peers,” Hansen said. “I can’t say I was surprised.”

Earning that respect is humbling, Jamison said.

“It is a great honor coming from your peers,” Jamison said. “That is what means the most.”

Kentridge principal Mike Albrecht has known Jamison since the late 1980s, when Jamison began his coaching career as junior varsity coach at Kent-Meridian. Albrecht was head coach.

T-Birds’ Theodore, Kozun earn WHL top honors FOR THE REPORTER

Bush returns to town for Kentwood job

BY SARAH WEHMANN swehmann@covingtonreporter.com

Mike Bush spent a little more than a year in Kent where he attended and graduated from Kent-Meridian High School but it’s still a place he considered home. “(Kent) was a place I came back to when I had days off in college,” the former Washington State University football and basketball player said in an email. “It was a place where I met lifelong friends. (And) it’s a place I call home and a place I want to give back to.”

Bush, 35, is returning to town to coach the Kentwood Conquerors’ football team come fall. He has already spent the last six months at Kentwood, he said, but his coaching duties don’t officially begin until June 1.

Bush has been coaching a number of sports since 2004. He added, “(In a

[ JAMISON from page 18 ] head coach.”

Albrecht said Jamison deserves the honor.

“He has this ability to see the big picture of what coaching is all about,” Al-

way) I have been coaching in some form all my life, coaching my little cousins growing up and my peers.”

And he even spent time coaching outside of the United States while he spent time in Luxembourg.

His most recent coaching position was coaching the wide receivers at Bothell High School.

Even though Bush has been coaching for the past 11 years, this is the first time he will be a head coach at the high school level. He previously was head coach of the boys basketball team and track team at Kirkland Middle School.

When asked what it was like to play two sports at the collegiate level, Bush said it was great.

“I look back and I say, wow I did that,” he said.

As to whether he still plays any sports, Bush joked “I try not to play, my knees swell up just reading the question.”

He said he never had a favorite sport while he was playing or coaching. He added, whatever season it

brecht said. “He also has the ability to work with parents and create relationships with kids. Kids want to play for him.”

Jamison is quick to share his success with his fellow coaches and players.

was determined his favorite.

But that has changed.

“I have a favorite now, it’s Kentwood football,” he said.

Bush doesn’t believe he picked between coaching football or coaching basketball.

“I don’t think I chose to coach football over another sport, it really chose me,” he said.

He added that the atmosphere at Kentwood is full of tradition and “there is no better place than the Kent community to call home.”

When making the transition to coaching, Bush credits his past coaches who “instilled a set of core values that I live by daily.”

His goal is to pass along those core values to the student athletes he comes into contact with.

“I believe I can make a positive impact in our community and school through coaching,” Bush said.

The idea behind hiring Bush as the Conks’ head coach was to bring “fresh eyes and bring a renewed enthusiasm into the program,” Kentwood athletic

“It has been a team effort here,” he said. “It is more a reflection on the program.”

He said his coaching staff has done a great job of preparing younger players so they are able to succeed on the varsity team.

director Jo Anne Daughtry said. She added “ultimately, we chose to go in a different direction” by hiring Bush.

Bush said his goal with the football team is to show

the surrounding area “what it means to be a Conk and say you went to Kentwood.”

When Bush starts to put together next year’s football team he said he will look

for toughness in players and those who are students of the game. As a team, he will look for “togetherness and a willing to sacrifice for the greater good,” he said.

Grant supports KentHOPEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operations FOR THE REPORTER

Thanks to a United Way and City of Seattle grant of $34,500, there will be fewer women sleeping outdoors in Kent.

The grant will pay for staff and operating costs to boost KentHOPE shelter capacity by 3,300 bed nights in the next year, an increase from 20 to 30 each night the shelter is open from April to October, according to KentHOPE. In addition, Catholic Community Services (CCS) will open two additional months at the Holy Spirit Parish in Kent, resulting in 1,800 more bed nights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We greatly value and

appreciate the coordination and collaboration with CCS resulting in a combined total of 5,100 additional shelter bed nights for women in Kent,â&#x20AC;? said Pat Gray, chairperson of the KentHOPE executive board. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What a blessing. There will be fewer women sleeping outside in Kent this year. And we continue to offer them meals, laundry, showers, clothing and resources for housing and jobs though the KentHOPE Women and Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day Center,â&#x20AC;? Gray said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do this thanks to the hard work and dedication of KentHOPE staff and volunteers, Seattleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Union Gospel

Mission, our community partners, churches, service organizations and businesses and the many individual donors and volunteers who keep our shelters, day center and meal program running.â&#x20AC;?

The shelter rotates among six local churches â&#x20AC;&#x201C; each taking a month â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that welcome the women to sleep in a part of their building.

The participating churches are: First Evangelical Presbyterian; Kent United Methodist; Kent Presbyterian; Lutheran Church of the Cross; New Beginnings Christian Fellowship; and Kent Covenant Church.
