www.federalwaymirror.com [ ALGAE from page 1] Ecology grant but the association couldn’t afford the required 25 percent match of $16,640. Darcey said that expense, coupled with the cost of their current treatments, was too much.

The city responded by applying for Department of Ecology’s Freshwater Algae Control Program grant funding in November 2014 for a surface and storm water quality study in the upper Joe’s Creek watershed area. As part of the grant agreement, the city paid the match and Ecology shared $49,920, the most that was awarded in the program and the maximum funding amount.

“We are happy it was obtained and look forward to whatever successes are obtained,” Darcey said.

The study’s goal is to identify, control and reduce external sources of pollutants that may be contributing to the hazardous algae blooms.

The study will consist of monthly monitoring of phosphorus, nitrogen, fecal coliform and other pollutants for one year in six locations on Joe’s Creek and storm water outfalls.

Hydrologic measurements and precipitation data will also be collected.

The city will allocate about $9,460 from the grant to provide public outreach to the 1,200 residents affected.

This will include a “watershed letter” explaining how to reduce human influenced, non-point sources of nutrients in the lakes. The study will cost $54,600 and the cost of administering the project is $2,500.

Water sampling will begin this October and last until September 2016. At the end of the study, the city will provide a final report to the Department of Ecology as well as analysis of the data.

“The bacteria source tracing effort for the watershed will help identify and quantify sources of bacteria with the purpose of eliminating those sources through municipal and/or county code compliance efforts, or control through watershed public education,” the Water Quality Algae Control Program agreement states.

However, Wieder thinks it isn’t enough.

“Too little, too late,” he said, noting the project’s start time is in October and there’s problems now.

Wieder said he thinks it’s the city’s responsibility to fix the problem, which he believes is caused from the direct flow of storm water drain runoff into Lake Lorene. Although he

SUMMER SAVINGS DAYS RUNNING SHOES

Ducks swim through the toxic algae in Twin Lakes last summer. Over a year later, the toxic algae still an issue. FILE PHOTO acknowledged the lakes were privately owned, he said maybe the ultimate direction is for the city to purchase those lakes.

Dan Smith said while it’s true storm water runs directly to the lakes, the storm water is from publicly owned city streets with the majority coming from private sources, such as parking lots, commercial property, yards and golf courses, to name a few.

“With the grant funding, we will be collecting additional samples to measure storm water nutrient loading directly to the lakes,” Dan Smith said. “Other sources of nutrients to the lakes include Joe’s Creek (which receives both groundwater and storm water from upstream sources), internal cycling of lake sediments and groundwater.”

Also, nutrient sources, which feed the toxic algae bloom, can come from over-fertilization (phosphorous) and geese feces (fecal coliform).

However, he said monitoring for fecal coliform could take longer than one year and is hard to fix because geese often congregrate in open grassy areas.

“Two places of concern in the upper Joe’s Creek watershed — that’s the waterway that leads into the Twin Lakes, upper areas are the Northshore Golf Course — manicured grass geese like to graze on,” Dan Smith said.

“And Treasure Island park that drains into Lake Jeane and Lake Lorene.”

But the problem, he said, is these are privately-owned areas that the geese congregate at and the city can’t do much about that.

He said Twin Lakes is likely feeling the “brunt of the harmful algae blooms” because Twin Lakes are manmade lakes and they are shallow, which provides for a lot of sunlight that “penetrates deep inside the water bodies.” But until the water sampling is complete, a final report has been delivered, and workshops and public outreach have been completed, the Twin Lakes Homeowners Association

is finding ways to help Lake Lorene now.

Darcey said this year, the association has hired a new contractor and volunteer consultant “that have helped beyond expectations.”

There’s been two algaecide treatments so far and Ecology has given the association a permit to try an experimental treatment that, if successful, will rid the lake of nutrients, primarily phosphorus.

Lake Jeane resident Don Everly Smith said the year-long study sounds like they’re “heading in the right direction.”

The treatments will only be temporary, he pointed out, if the source of the nutrients feeding the algae isn’t discovered and controlled.

“If you don’t take out the nutrients, you will be constantly basically treating the effects but not getting to the cause, which are nutrient loads that are still there,” Don Everly Smith said.

And although he thinks the storm water runoff is a big factor, his ultimate request is that all parties work together and communicate mutual rights and responsibilities for long-term management of the lake.

“We’re all in this together and we need to look at who’s responsible and how we can resolve the situation.”

If public outreach and collaboration isn’t reached, then he thinks one other possible solution might be to form a lake management district, a legal entity that can take authority to levy taxes for management of the lake.

However, many are against this controversial idea. Dan Smith said if the community so chooses to do that, the city would help with that process.

Throughout this process, he added the city has also engaged King County Public Health and the Washington State Department of Health — the public entities that regulate the public health/ public exposure end of things (toxic algae blooms).

However, “they don’t seem to have the staffing levels to respond to the Twin Lakes community concerns.”

hen the state’s duly elected auditor disappears while in office does anyone notice beyond the shadow of the Capitol dome?

Doesn’t seem like it.

It’s been two full months since Troy Xavier Kelley discharged his duties to others and cut himself off the public trough to focus on fighting federal criminal charges stemming from his past profession.

The first-term Tacoma Democrat began a selfimposed unpaid exile at 1 p.m. May 4. An hour later his digital existence with the State Auditor’s Office had, to put it politely, been erased.

No mug, no bio and almost no sign of his service. Most mentions of him are in the trove of documents agency officials delivered to investigators then put online for the world to read.

Jan Jutte, the woman entrusted by Kelley to steer the ship in his absence, ordered the expunging and posting in one of her first acts.

“The cloud was never over this office. It was always over him,” she said Tuesday. “I think I was just trying to give less opportunity for questions to be asked.” Since taking the helm, Jutte’s guided the vaunted agency to smoother waters under clearer skies. She said she’s not spoken with Kelley nor does his name come up in office conversations unless they involve an inquiring reporter.

Meanwhile in the past two months, employees in the auditor’s office have issued hundreds of audits of cities, counties, school districts and other appendages of local government. There’s also been an intermittent whistleblower probe and a performance audit or two.

On Tuesday, the executive team huddled for six hours to do what Jutte described as operational planning. The effort that started after Kelley’s election in 2012 amounts to mapping a course for the agency to follow in the coming two to four years.

Vote Gregory for education In her last (misleading) mailer, Teri Hickel touts her quarterback award from the Seahawks, her Golden Shovel award from the Federal Way Community Gardens and being awarded the Key to the City by Mayor Jim Ferrell.

All quite wonderful, I’m sure. But, voters are interested in education! Teri’s opponent, Carol Gregory, is a former elementary school teacher, a former president of the Washington Education Association and has worked in the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and was elected to the Federal Way school board.

Which of the two strikes you as more knowledgeable about education?

Races to watch closely in primary election The Aug. 4 primary election will advance the top two finalists to the November general election.

In primary races, the key to watch for is the vote total for the top two candidates. If the leading vote-getter has more than a 10 percent lead, then it will be very hard for the second place finisher to make up enough ground to win. Inside of that margin, the winner will be determined by money, name familiarity, endorsements and hard work.

But there is one two-person race to watch very closely. That is the race between appointed Democratic incumbent state Rep. Carol Gregory and Republican challenger Teri Hickel.

Gregory has been in Olympia since January with the Legislature in session, giving Hickel plenty of room to increase her name familiarity.

This is a special election and both candidates will advance to the general election. As a signal of how important this seat is, Democratic Speaker Frank Chopp was in town recently to help Gregory raise money.

Prior to her appointment, Gregory ran for

the Legislature and was elected to the school board, which gives her an advantage in campaign experience. She should be considered the front runner. But Hickel is well regarded among many political insiders for her community work and has had the ability to campaign while Gregory was in Olympia.

Hickel received an “outstanding” rating from the Municipal League and Gregory received a “very good.” These are two nice people who will run a clean campaign. However, third party attack ads were launched against Gregory before the Legislature even adjourned. That was a significant demonstration of how important winning this seat is. The primary is a test of strength and is crucial to each party’s fundraising efforts.

Both candidates must look competitive or the money will dry up.

Another primary to watch closely is for King County director of elections. There are three candidates. Chris Roberts is a Shoreline City Council member and a Democrat, Zack Bob Roegner

Teri states she will “hit the ground running,” but I fail to see where her experience qualifies her to do so.

Carol, on the other hand, has been working for the last year in the Legislature since being sworn in to replace Roger Freeman.

Teri likes to showcase the picture of her picture with the mayor as she was awarded the Key to the City — but it is Carol Gregory that Ferrell endorsed — not Teri.

Let’s stick with tried and true instead of experimenting with a less seasoned contender. Vote for Carol Gregory!

Catherine North, Federal Way

Teri makes education top priority I have known Teri Hickel, candidate for the 30th District legislative seat for over 20 years. I first got to know about her excellent organizational skills and passion for education when we cochaired the PTA Reflections Committee at the school our daughters attended. A couple of years later, I was lucky enough to teach Teri’s younger daughter when she was in first grade, and saw firsthand what an involved and supportive parent she was. Teri regularly helped in both her daughters’ classrooms, and she was involved in supporting

our staff and student body through various PTA committees. She was also involved in supporting the entire district by working on our many levy elections through Citizens for Federal Way Schools.

When Teri first went to work for the larger community of Federal Way, at the Chamber of Commerce in the fall of 2000, she was in charge of the Federal Way Educational Foundation, once again making education her top priority.

Teri took her passion for education and her community even further by directing the Advancing Leadership program, which has empowered over 500 adult leaders in our community!

Five years later, she added

the Advancing Leadership Youth program, which empowered another 350 great young leaders. Teri has spent the last 15 years working for this community through the Advancing Leadership program, and ensuring that we have continuing leadership for the future.

She is now “walking the talk” and taking the challenge to run for the 30th District in a position where she can be a catalyst for positive change for our greater community. Teri has the skills, the passion and the insight to be an articulate voice for her constituents in the Legislature.

Join me in supporting Teri Hickel for Legislature by voting in the special election on Aug. 5th!

South King Fire to vote on $39 million bond measure FROM STAFF REPORTS

South King Fire and Rescue’s board of commissioners will meet at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, July 28 and are expected to vote on whether to place a $39 million bond measure on the general election ballot in November.

According to fire officials, the potential bond measure will be part of a phased approach and the fire district may ask voters to approve an additional bond in the future.

The meeting will be held at Station 68, 1405 SW 312th St., Federal Way. For more information, visit www.southkingfire.org or call 253-839-6234.

[ CORNFIELD from page 4]

“In 18 months there is going to be a new person, I know that. It doesn’t mean they can’t alter it,” she said.

“This is a continuation of what we were doing before the cloud appeared. I think it is an indication that we are moving forward.”

She’s commanded with steady hand, unbending humility and pretty much without a compass.

You don’t need one when you’ve worked at the place 30 years and tackled tasks in about every division of the agency.

“I’m not an unknown,” she said. “I think that helps make this transition out from under the cloud.”

Since 1985, she’s had three elected bosses, all Democrats. Now she’s the boss albeit acting and unelected.

She is the first woman and first certified public accountant to occupy the auditor’s chair.

She’ll be in it until Kelley – whose tribulations will henceforth be known as “The Cloud” – returns or, more likely, a successor is elected in November 2016.

That won’t be Jutte. She’s not running, though some want her to do so.

She intended to retire until the accumulation of political cumulus threatened the environs she loved. She changed her plans.

“On a day-to-day basis, it is not an issue,” she said.

“We are doing audits. That’s who we are. We are moving on.”

That’s what she wants people under the Capitol dome and throughout the state to notice.

Middle school student wins prize for video game design rooklyn Humphrey was simply filling out her schedule when she decided to take a robotics class last year. Less than a year later she was on a plane to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to receive an award for video game design.

Brooklyn, an incoming eighth grade student at Sequoyah Middle School, had little interest in coding prior to the past school year. Her goal is to become an orthodontist in the future and she did not think of following in her father’s footsteps by working with code.

“I didn’t think I’d be interested,” Brooklyn said.

“I thought it would be way too confusing. I already had an elective for orchestra and didn’t know what else I wanted to do, so I thought I would try something new.”

The choice paid off as Brooklyn became enamored with coding and eventually wanted to build a robot of her own. Her father, Kevin Humphrey, vetoed that idea because of the price. Instead, he suggested a video game.

She created her first game using Construct, a game engine used to create twodimensional games. While it was a start, she wanted to challenge herself with a three-dimensional game.

After doing some research, her father thought that Unity would be the best choice of game engine to use to make a three-dimensional game. Unity has been used to make criticallyacclaimed games such as “Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft,” “Temple Run,” “Ori and the Blind Forest,” “Kerbal Space Program” and “Threes.” Unity is also the default software development kit for the Wii U. “Unity is a really good choice if you’re going to make a 3D game,” Humphrey said. “It’s also free, so it was an easier choice to make.”

“I did a tutorial for Unity through YouTube and it showed a ball that had to collect [boxes],” Brooklyn said. “I decided I wanted to do something kind of like that.”

She ended up creating “Maze Kraze,” a game in which you have to navigate a maze to collect coins with a ball. She looked at labyrinth designs online to influence the design of her maze.

The game was actually created before either of the two knew about the STEM Video Game Challenge.

Humphrey found about about it from his coworkers. When she submitted it, Brooklyn was not too optimistic about her chances.

...obituaries Mary R. Leason Federal Way resident Mary R. Leason, 94, died July 12th in her home in Federal Way, WA. She was born October 19th, 1920, in Staten Island New York.

Mary served in the Navy as a Wave from 1943-47. Mary was an accomplished poet and had received many accolades for her outstanding work. She was named Woman of the Year in 2002 by the Biographical Institute.

Mary spent a lot of time practicing herbal medicine and helped many people with her study.

She is survived by her daughter Rose Webster of Edgewood, WA; brother, Jimmy Romano of Staten Island, NY; and grandsons Jesse, Daniel and Christopher Webster also of Edgewood.

Services are to be held at the national cemetery in Kent with a celebration of life at the Kloshee Illahee club house.

Brooklyn Humphrey, who will be an eighth grader at Sequoyah Middle School this fall, recently won the Unity category of the STEM Video Game Challenge for middle schoolers. She received a $3,000 award, $2,000 of which was awarded to Sequoyah’s robotics program. Contributed photo “I felt like there was such a little chance of winning,” Brooklyn said. “I sort of wanted to see what would happen. When I had found out I’d won, it was really cool. I didn’t think I’d be able to do it.”

The two did think Brooklyn’s chances increased by entering in the Unity category.

“I figured there wouldn’t be a ton of Unity submissions because you have to write code,” Humphrey said. “The other platforms are all applications you can use without code. They just need some artwork. There were some impressive pieces out there, but they didn’t have to write code to do it. I think that one of the crown jewels of Brooklyn’s accomplishment was that she had to go beyond what others did, especially for a middle schooler.”

They looked at the website and also saw that there were no winners in the Unity category last year and believed it indicated a low amount of submissions.

It turned out that around 75 other competitors had entered the Unity competition for middle schoolers.

In the end, it did not matter as Brooklyn took home the $3,000 prize, $2,000 of which was awarded to Sequoyah’s robotics program.

She is hoping that Sequoyah’s program will be able to use the money to buy another robot for students to use.

Brooklyn and her father were flown out to Pittsburgh for the ceremony to receive the prize and tour the city. Brooklyn also had to pitch “Maze Kraze” to the hundreds of people that showed up to the event.

Her favorite part of the

trip was going to Schell Games, a video game development company. She and the other winners were able to test some “top secret games.”

The experience left Brooklyn with a heightened interest in video game development and something she would not mind doing if her first career choice as an orthodontist does not work out.

When she is not coding, Brooklyn enjoys playing basketball and volleyball.

She has also joined the robotics club this summer and has been helping to build a robot to compete in competitions.

She hopes to get members of the club and her robotics class to all participate in the STEM Video Game Challenge next year. She intends to enter into the competition once again herself.

Q&A with Mr. FW: Fire district puts con committee cart before the horse Q

: Mr. Federal Way, I heard that South King Fire and Rescue is seeking a con committee for another potential bond measure. However, the fire board of commissioners hasn’t even approved putting the measure on the general election ballot yet.

Isn’t this premature?

A: Mr. Federal Way hesitates to admit when anyone other than himself is accurate, but you are correct.

Fire district staff sent the Mirror an email on Monday requesting for the newspaper to post a public notice in this week’s print edition. According to that notice, South King Fire and Rescue is placing a $39 million, 20-year capital bond measure on the Nov. 3 ballot. The notice calls on citizens interested in opposing this measure on a con committee to contact the fire district by July 31.

When the editor received this public notice, she told Mr. Federal Way she

thought Mirror staff missed the commissioners’ vote to place the measure on the ballot. Mirror staff contacted fire officials, who confirmed that the board has not voted to place this on the ballot yet. They plan to vote on the bond measure at their July 28 meeting.

Not only is this public notice calling for a con committee premature, it is also confusing and misleading. Mr. Federal Way suspects that the fire district is on a timely schedule and has to dot several i’s and cross a host of t’s to ensure they can place the measure on the general election ballot in time. If this is just a matter of the fire district attempting to be timely — fine.

However, a public agency that is responsible to the taxpayers who pay for that

nificant lack of available retail product on the market in the Puget Sound, specifically for properties with the ability to add value.”

Center Plaza is across the street from The Commons mall and just south of Town Square Park.

According to Capital Pacific, the retail center is strategically positioned to benefit from the city’s investment in their push for density.

“This is good news for Federal Way,” Federal Way Mayor Jim Ferrell said. “This proves already that our strategic commitment and investments in our downtown core, through the Performing Arts and Events Center, Town Square Park and the former Target location, are paying dividends in terms of interest and investment. This was illustrated by the numerous offers and significant interest in the property. We look forward to working with the new owners for both the short-term and long-term plans for their property. I believe this is just the beginning of the kinds of exciting investments we will see in our city.”

The city of Federal Way’s Town Center project has plans to revitalize Federal Way’s downtown core through construction of a redesigned city park, a Performing Arts and Events Center and several retail, office, and civic uses on multiple stories.

“Center Plaza offered a unique opportunity due to the

entity should not post a public notice indicating that the measure will be on the ballot if that is not the case. The public notice should have stated that South King Fire and Rescue MAY place a $39 million bond measure on the Nov. 3 ballot, pending the board’s vote on July 28. Mr. Federal Way didn’t go to college for journalism but it doesn’t take an educated copy editor to figure out that their notice is inaccurate.

Mr. Federal Way believes this seemingly trivial public notice could cause the whole bond measure to go down in flames.

What happens if voters ultimately approve the bond? Mr. Federal Way is certain there is at least one long-time South King Fire critic who could come back

changes going on in the immediate area within the city of Federal Way, as well as its location across from The Commons,” said Kevin Adatto, a partner of Capital Pacific. “This acquisition targeted both developers and cash flow investors looking for an attractive long-term investment.”

Tufts said the real estate firm is bound to a strict confidentiality agreement in that they could not disclose who the buyer is, only that it is a private Puget Sound investor.

But Ferrell said if the buyer is who he thinks it is, the short-term plan is focused on making Center Plaza better.

Ferrell said Center Plaza is a key downtown property in that it provides for connectivity to the city’s future development.

“I think people very soon are going to see the transformation of our downtown,” Ferrell said. “… The new Federal Way is right around the corner.”

According to King County property records, Cratsenberg Properties, LLC was the previous owner for Center Plaza, Cratsenberg Properties, LLC was the owner of the property Starbucks is located on, and Retman Sam with Darden Restaurants out of Florida was the taxpayer and property owner of the land Red Lobster sits on.

The owners of Center Plaza owed nearly $70,000 in taxes to be paid by November of this year.

Cratsenberg Properties, LLC and Cratsenberg Enterprises, LLC made headlines in 2009 when owner Andrew C. Cratsenberg’s wife of four years faced first-degree theft

at the fire district and say that the public notice was invalid due to the inaccuracy, thus the bond approval is null and void. This premature public notice could put this bond measure at some kind of a legal risk.

But this is also about public perception.

The fire district’s recent issues have already caused some voters to be skeptical of the agency, which may be why the recent bond measure failed.

If the fire district hopes to change its public image, commissioners and fire officials need to look closely at their actions and be mindful of outcomes. The result of this bond measure — IF it goes on the November ballot — depends on this.

special about this property and its buyer that this all has to be kept hush, hush? Why does its proximity to Town Center make me question the intent behind the “private Puget Sound investor?”

A: Mr. Federal Way thinks a list is in order — a list that details the sellers, buyers, property values, property sales and years in which the plats of land the city has deemed the downtown core of Federal Way have been bought. Is there gold buried under these here foothills?

Well, apparently the city’s vision for development has all of a sudden attracted developers and maybe they see the potential for gold.

But without knowing who this new Center Plaza owner is and their intent for the land, Mr. Federal Way has to wonder whether the potential closure of Red Lobster, Starbucks, Subway, a martial arts studio and, of course, Total Vape, is some-

thing to be happy about.

Where else can Mr. Federal Way get a seafood and coffee fix before picking up more juice for an electronic cigarette (jokes on that last one).

Mr. Federal Way is in the same boat with you, oh, curious one. What is planned for Federal Way’s future economy? Will this property sit idly by like the former Pal-Do World site or will it move at Godspeed like Town Center?

The answers remain to be seen but Mr. Federal Way will be watching from the corner table of his favorite coffee joint.

A: None of your business.

charges for stealing part of the then-86-year-old’s fortune.

According to charging documents, Andrew Cratsenberg had been showing signs of dementia for years when he had an unexpected wedding. In a matter of months, his new wife withdrew hundreds of thousands of dollars. His wife, Juliana Cratsenberg, was found guilty in December 2013 and sentenced a month later.

The land Cratsenberg Properties, LLC owned was also involved in controversy in 2008 when the property owner sued former business Cafe Arizona for eviction. The night club was allegedly a hub for criminal activity, which included shootings, a rape and other disorderly conduct.

Hudgins is a Democratic state representative in the 11th District just north of Federal Way and Julie Wise is the current deputy director of King County Elections.

Each candidate brings something to the job. Wise has the most direct experience in this very difficult job as she has worked in the department for several years. County insiders speak well of her skills to hold the top post. But while her steadfast non-partisan approach is an asset in both the deputy and director positions, not having held office or run for election before contributes to her lack of name recognition.

The Seattle Times endorsed her, at least in part, because of her lack of name familiarity, suggesting her competence and lack of errors in the Election Department on her watch has kept her name out of the paper.

Wise also has a local tie to Federal Way as her parents live here. Her father previously served as mayor of Enumclaw.

Hudgins is a respected legislator and is well known through his campaigns. He would bring a different policy view and his knowledge of Olympia would be helpful. This will be an interesting race, look for Wise and Hudgins to advance.

In the City Council race, appointed incumbent Lydia Assefa-Dawson is being challenged by Anthony Murrietta and Mark Greene. Greene referred to Murrietta as a “union boss” in an unflattering manner at the Mirror’s

recent candidate debate. Murrietta bristled but contained his temper.

And Greene’s claim of political support from Mayor Jim Ferrell was refuted and also turned the candidates forum into a shouting match. Greene’s candor might be interesting but he needs more seasoning on city issues.

Greene received a “not qualified” rating from the Municipal League. Assefa-Dawson received a “very good” and Murrietta a “good.” Look for Assefa-Dawson and Murrietta to advance to the general election.

The South King Fire and Rescue race for the commissioner seat that will be vacated by Mark Freitas, who is not running for reelection, has a situation where the most thoughtful candidate might not get past the primary. The fire district has had several controversies over the years, and Freitas’s role has been to play a necessary check and balance on district policy.

The leading candidate to replace him is Roger Flygare.

Flygare is a local businessman, has run unsuccessfully for the Legislature and City Council and is a Democrat.

He is supported by the district power structure including incumbent commissioners and fire chief.

He has not identified areas that he would seek to change that would demonstrate any independence from the current policies.

Flygare’s most visible opponent is Republican and long-time South King Fire and Rescue critic Jerry Galland. Galland has also run for office several times and

lost each time. Galland has been more restrained in his criticism of the district this election cycle, but would still bring a needed critical eye to the board. However, he may have already marginalized himself and likely would not be able to gain the support of other commissioners to bring about positive change.

The third candidate in the race is Bill Fuller. He is a former firefighter, but he has balanced that with his private sector experience at Weyerhaeuser. Fuller has questioned some of the current policies, including those that address nepotism.

He would support allowing family members of current employees to only apply for specialized job function needs. That is far short of public expectation but at least he is willing to try and discuss changes to an outdated personnel system that appears to favor family members.

And his approach is more likely to be well received by other board members. Galland and Fuller got the Mirror’s endorsement.

But Fuller doesn’t have the name, money, campaign experience or political connections the other two have.

Too bad, a debate in October including him with either Galland or Flygare would yield a much more substantive discussion for public consideration.

and Rescue. Bill is smart, Bill is honest and Bill is experienced. Fire commissioner is a position of responsibility to the citizens, taxpayers, voters and firefighters.

Bill Fuller has experience as a firefighter of nine years with the Snohomish County, District 1, station 3. Bill is a long-time, 38 year resident of Federal Way. I worked with Bill at the Weyerhaeuser Technology Center where he was a chemical engineer and manager of the Emergency Response Safety Team. Bill’s integrity is unsurpassed; he is honest, tells the truth, he is able and willing to ask the difficult questions and make decisions based on facts and data.

Bill has vision and looks forward to the growing needs of South King County. Bill strives for cooperation being a positive effective leader.

And Bill promotes participation of citizens to be resources for South King Fire and Rescue. It is my opinion that Bill Fuller is the right candidate to vote for as fire commissioner to represent the citizens of Federal Way.

Community pulled together during event challenges I wanted to convey my gratitude for all of the amazing community support for Multi-Service Center’s crab feed this year! We had some unanticipated challenges but have already begun identifying solutions to fulfill our commitment in ensuring that these issues don’t arise in the future. I want to thank all of our attendees for their commitment and patience at the event.

Multi-Service Center is blessed to have incredible stakeholders who have helped to make this event a success. Our MSC Friends Committee is comprised of volunteers who work diligently to make each crab feed better than the last.

Our dedicated volunteers, staff and board of directors also spend hours and hours ensuring that the event runs smoothly and is enjoyable for all of our attendees.

In regards to Mr. Federal Way’s recent column, I am glad to know that Mr. Federal Way attends the Multi-Service Center crab feed! I did want to add some

clarification regarding our partnership with the city of Federal Way, particularly as it relates to this year’s crab feed.

From the very beginning of our planning process, the Federal Way Community Center staff were helpful and collaborative.

Any time an entity tries something new, there are always risks. Despite the fact that the center had never taken on an event of this size, they were willing to take a significant risk and work with us on hosting one of Federal Way’s largest events.

When challenges arose along the way, Federal Way Community Center staff as well as the city’s Parks and Recreation Director John Hutton stepped up with efforts including but not limited to providing a generator to ensure that our electrical needs for the event were met.

The same is true of other city staff as well. As technical issues causing long lines became apparent, without hesitation Mayor Jim Ferrell, Deputy Mayor Jeanne Burbidge, Kathy Arndt and other city staff jumped in to help in whatever capacity they could including but not limited to communicating with the city’s information technology director to resolve issues and helping at the registration desk.

In addition, every city of Federal Way Council member was present and supportive of the event. Truly, the city of Federal Way went above and beyond to support the success of Multi-Service Center’s crab feed event.

We are working with the city to discuss options and changes for next year and are hopeful that we will be able to use the Federal Way Community Center once again.

Certainly there were unanticipated challenges that arose. Yet, I am humbled by the fact that our community partners pulled together to raise more money for Multi-Service Center than ever before to help those in need in our community.

Overall, the event was a success and our community will benefit as a result.

I have no doubt that due to the efforts of Multi-Service Center staff, volunteers and our community partners, next year’s event will be even more enjoyable and successful.

Middle school track athlete qualifies for Junior Olympic Championships

BY TERRENCE HILL thill@fedwaymirror.com

F

ederal Way has had quite a few stars in track and field in recent years. A local middle school student is hoping to be the next one in line.

Anthony “AJ” Frazier, a Lakota Middle School student, was the fastest recorded seventh grader in the nation this past track season at the 100-meter event. He ran a time of 11.48 during the Federal Way Middle School district finals on June 11.

At the Junior Olympic Region Championships at Jesuit High School in Oregon on July 10-12, he finished in the top five of the 100. This earned him a spot in the USA Track and Field Junior Olympic Championships at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville from July 27 through Aug. 2.

“I was nervous,” AJ’s father Chris Frazier said. “I’m a dad, so I try to be supportive and not get too nervous, but it’s pretty hard to try to stay calm. As soon as he ran his first race, I knew it was a qualifying time. He’s one of the top runners in the country. It’s really jaw dropping.”

AJ began running track two years ago. Just last year he was a distance runner,

Isaiah Diggs revealed in an interview with the Tacoma News Tribune on July 7 that he has received an offer to walk on to the Washington State University football team. Diggs was second in all-purpose yards in the South Puget Sound League 4A this past season. He was also the state champion in wrestling for the 3A, 132 pound division in 2014 and state runner-up in the 4A, 152 pound division in 2015. Diggs was also a member of the 4x100 and 4x400 relay teams that participated in the state track and field championships in May.

AJ Frazier, front, leads the 100-meter race during the regional event at Jesuit High School in Beaverton, Oregon. Frazier currently holds the fastest 100-meter time for a seventh grader in the nation. Contributed Photo participating in the 400, 800 and 1600 mostly. This past season he decided to give the sprint races a shot. He now runs the 100, 200 and 400 and is also a long jumper.

The change has paid off for him. His 11.48 time in the 100 is not only just the best for seventh graders, but also seventh best for middle schoolers. Six eighth graders are ahead of him and he is one of only five seventh graders in the top 50 recorded times in the nation.

His father knew he would excel at track, but did not expect it to happen quite so quickly.

“I knew he was fast from when he played football last year, Frazier said. “He’s already beating kids who have done this for years. He has amazing agility, mostly from martial arts. His muscle memory is unlike any kid I have ever seen.”

There have been other track athletes in the Frazier family before AJ. His

grandfather qualified for the Olympics in the late 1960s/ early 1970s, but was unable to compete due to an injury.

Track and field is not the only area of success for AJ. He is also a talented cellist, football player and artist.

He also practices Keishindo martial science, the martial art that his father teaches at the Keishindo Martial Science Academy in Federal Way. “He’s a multifaceted kid,” his father said. “Anything he

puts his hands on, he wants to excel at.”

AJ has also excelled academically. Currently he participates in the Cambridge Preparatory Checkpoint Program at Lakota Middle School, an advanced program for academically talented students. He has an interest in cars and is looking into mechanical engineering.

“The number one thing I’ve always told AJ is that it doesn’t matter how good you are at athletics, intelligence is what you’re going to keep,” Frazier said. “He understands what it means to be a student-athlete at his young age. It’s something you don’t see often at his age.”

Currently, the Fraziers are trying to raise money to travel to the Junior Olympic Championships. They have set up a gofundme. com page and are hoping to raise $4,000. So far, they have raised over $1,200.

While they have enough to cover the flight, they still need to cover lodging, food and travel expenses while in Florida.

“We’ve got to pinch a little bit, but I definitely want to make the sacrifices so he can get there,” Frazier said.

SENIOR LIFESTYLES ...

Senior enjoys country living near Poverty Bay

BY ANDREW FICKES For the Mirror

Off a gravel road in west Federal Way, on a 1.25 acre property, in a spacious 2,000-square-foot home, 92-year-old Opal Gage enjoys an unparalleled view of the serene Poverty Bay and Puget Sound below.

Since 1971, she’s called this place home. It’s where she and her husband, Bob, reared their three children: Nellice, Ken and Dan. Prior to moving to Federal Way, the couple and their kids lived in Anchorage, Alaska, where her husband was a pilot and flew groups of people on hunting charters into the

wilderness.

“My mom was a really good shot,” Ken Gage, 58, said.

“She used to shoot a 12-gauge shotgun, which is a pretty big gun for a woman.”

Opal Gage was born Opal Walker in 1923 in Ansley, Nebraska, the fifth of six children: three brothers and two sisters.

She remembers keeping up with her three brothers, competing to outshoot them.

“I loved to hunt,” she said.

“I grew up shooting with my brothers and sisters.”

The Walker kids also grew up on a farm.

“Cows, horses, you name it.”

Living on a farm, Opal Gage and her siblings learned really quick how to live off the land.

Much of the jobs they did were agriculture related.

Early in her childhood, she and her family moved to Colorado. It was from Colorado that the Dust Bowl eventually [ more SENIOR page 15 ]

homes built in the area. When the Gage family moved to their new home in the early 1970s, Ken Gage remembers South 312th Street and Highway 99 being the center of town.

“Where The Commons mall is now, used to be a swamp,” he said.

Prior to 1901, the Gage family home was divided into detached cabins. The property in the late 1800s was a resort, covered in cabin dwellings.

“When you go under the house you can see different foundations,” Ken Gage said.

Growing up, he remembers his mother and father welcoming friends to stay. The guest bedroom was always occupied and the couch was always full. He said many people knew his folks via the hunting charters they did in Alaska. Those people would visit whenever passing through Federal Way. For 40 years, a wooden sign has hung outside the

porch, reading: “Gage Motel, Vacancy.” This was gifted from family friends.

Up until age 90, Opal Gage was strong and vital, still driving and pulling weeds and gardening. But at age 90, she suffered a stroke and quickly declined, Ken Gage said. He noted at one time his mother enjoyed ceramics, knitting and crocheting. Still to this day, her garden outside is beautiful.

Carol Schuler, Opal Gage’s caregiver from Comfort Keepers, said she’s more than happy to water her garden and do anything she requests.

“She’s like family,” Schuler said.

Opal Gage is blessed with 14 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren. Her son said he’s reminded each day how much he appreciates his mother. His father passed away in 2001.

“Cherish every day with your parents,” Ken Gage said.

“Treat them well.”

Police Blotter The following is a sample from the Federal Way police log: Couple finds window smashed at home: At 12:06 a.m. on July 19 in the 33900 block of 38th Place SW, police responded to a burglary report.

The victims returned home to find one of their front door locks opened and their backdoor’s window shattered. One of the victims called out to see if anyone was in the residence and heard some noises. The couple then hid in the master bathroom with their gun. They said they thought they heard someone running in the backyard, but did not see anyone. The only item stolen was $50 from one of the children’s bedrooms.

Police were unable to locate any fingerprints in the house.

Man robbed in front of gas station: At 6:07 a.m. on July 19 in the 33100 block of Pacific Highway S., a man called police to report a robbery that took place on the sidewalk in front of Ernie’s Gas Station.

One of the men chased him, they all pinned him down, stole his cell phone and fled northbound.

He was unable to call police until he returned home nearly half an hour after being robbed.

Urinating man arrested: On 12:15 a.m. on July 18 in the 33100 block of Pacific Highway S., Federal Way police observed a man urinating in public near a business. An employee at the business requested the suspect to be trespassed from the property. The suspect refused to leave the property and was arrested for the two crimes. He was cited and released from the Federal Way police station.

Property egged: At 9:02 a.m. on July 18 in the 33600 block of 33rd Place SW, police responded to a report of malicious mischief. Police contacted a man who stated that sometime between the hours of 1:15 and 7 a.m., an unknown subject(s) egged two of his vehicles and the main floor window to his residence.

He also told police that a paintball gun was used. The estimated damage to the property was approximately $4,000. There were no suspects at the time of the report.

Firework causes fire: At 5:15 p.m. on July 18 in the 33200 block of 26th Ave. SW, police were dispatched to assist South King Fire and Rescue at the site of a fire. After investigating the area, police believe the fire was started by a firework placed in a mailbox nearby. A mobile home that was parked nearby was damaged, but police were informed that the residents were out of town. A fence was also burned.

Police talked to the owner of the fence, but she did not see what started the fire. Part of her yard and some nearby branches were also burned in the fire. A neighbor across the street informed officers that the mobile home belonged to his parents. He heard the firework go off and saw both his and his neighbor’s lawns on fire. He used a garden hose to extinguish the flame in his yard.

Police were unable to determine who set off the firework.

Person tries to steal shot of liquor: At 9:58 p.m. on July 18 in the 27200 block of Pacific Highway S., a witness called to report that an individual had trespassed at a bar.

Police confirmed a trespass notice was on file for the suspect. The suspect ran into the bar, attempted to drink a patron’s shot of liquor and then ran out of the bar. An hour later,

the suspect returned to the entrance of the bar. The suspect resisted arrest and was booked into SCORE jail.

Delivery driver attacked: At 11:07 p.m. on July 18 in the 29000 block of 28th Place S., police responded to an assault. The victim, working as a pizza delivery driver, was assaulted by a suspect with some kind of metal bar causing severe lacerations to his head. The victim was treated on scene by South King Fire and Rescue and then transported to St. Francis Hospital. The suspect was not located.

Taxi driver kisses woman: At 7:11 p.m. on July 18 in the 1000 block of South 308th St., a woman reported that a man kissed her, putting his tongue down her throat. She told police that the kiss was unwanted. The suspect is unknown as of the report, but she stated that he is employed by Sunshine Taxi.

Gunshots heard in neighborhood: At 12:19 a.m. on July 17 in the 35400 block of 25th Ave. SW, several callers reported one or two suspicious vehicles in the area. Some of the callers stated there was a dispute then they heard gunshots. Other callers just reported several gunshots.

Officers conducted a search of the area but were unable to locate any cartridge cases or anyone who actually saw what happened. Police are unsure if any crime occurred.

Woman involuntarily committed: At 10:46 a.m. on July 17 at the South 320th St. exit on northbound Interstate 5, police contacted a woman who was behaving erratically. The woman said she had been driving over three days in an attempt to get away from the FBI, CIA and Secret Service who were trying to kill her.

When police made contact with her, she reached for a large kitchen knife on the passenger seat of her vehicle.

She was involuntarily committed.

Man assaulted by girlfriend: At 1:11 p.m. on July 17 in the 1300 block of SW Campus Drive Drive, police responded to a report of an assault. A man overheard his neighbor yell, “Call 911,” and a female voice yell, “Stop it,” shortly after. When police arrived, the woman sat outside of the house crying in front of the officers wearing a T-shirt and underwear. The house had signs of a struggle and there was

a nearly-finished 40 ounce bottle of malt liquor in the house.

The male who originally called for help had swelling under his eyes, bruised lips and abrasions on his hands. He told police that he and his girlfriend had been drinking since the day prior and got into an argument because he wasn’t more loving to her. He went to their bedroom to get away from her, but she climbed on top of him, kissed him and bit his lip. She then began to slap him. He pushed her away and ran downstairs.

He then shouted for help as she chased him.

The female was booked into SCORE jail. The male said he was not going to pursue prosecution.

Man wanders into traffic: At 2:23 p.m. on July 17 in the 34700 block of Pacific Highway S., hospital staff called police for a suicidal patient who left the facility wearing only a hospital gown. Police found the patient three blocks away on the busy road walking in and out of heavy traffic. Officers saw him entering a moving and unsuspecting motorist’s vehicle that was in stopand-go traffic. When police contacted him, he was sweaty, shaking and complained of being scared due to overdosing on crystal methamphetamine. Due to his demeanor and actions, he was taken into protective custody and transported to St. Francis Hospital for an involuntary mental health evaluation.

Man accidentally stabs self: At 4:03 p.m. on July 17 in the 2200 block of South 320th St., business staff called 911 and reported one of their employees had fallen and stabbed himself. The employee stated that he was standing atop a stack of inventory, cutting packages open (about 3-feet high) inside the seafood department freezer when he slipped backwards and fell onto the floor. A small paring knife that he was holding in his hand punctured his abdomen area during the fall/landing. He was transported to Valley Hospital in stable condition. This incident was a workplace accident and not criminal.

Robbers pepper spray victims: At 10:29 p.m. on July 16 at Saghalie Middle School, officers responded to the report of a robbery. It was determined through investigation [ more BLOTTER, page 22 ]

Man arrested for fondling girls

BY RAECHEL DAWSON rdawson@fedwaymirror.com

F

ederal Way police officers arrested a 37-year-old SeaTac man on Saturday for fondling two girls’ breasts while at Wild Waves Theme Park.

Strangers to each other, an 11-year-old girl and a 15-year-old girl reported fondling at 5 p.m. that day.

Wild Waves security called police to arrest the man.

The younger girl told police she saw the man swimming underwater in front of her — the water was up to her neck — when he grabbed her breast over her bathing suit.

“I have never seen this

man before,” the victim told the officer, according to the police report. “I felt very alarmed in how he grabbed me.”

The 15-year-old told police she was with her boyfriend at Wild Waves, having a good time, when she suddenly felt someone squeeze her breast.

“I knew it wasn’t an accident because his hand went under my bathing suit and he grabbed it for a few minutes [sic] and I saw that he was doing it to other young girls as well,” the victim stated.

“I felt very violated and I felt very uncomfortable around him.”

Both girls said the assaults occurred in the wave pool.

Once the man was arrested, the police report

states his family members walked up to ask about his arrest.

They told the officers the man’s native language was Bengali and an officer called on an interpreter.

However, the suspect did not understand the translator when he read him his Miranda Rights.

After at least three tries, the officers went forward with the arrest.

According to the police report, the officer transporting him did not ask any questions or speak to the man as he was taken to SCORE jail.

The man was released from jail on Monday.

He’s likely to face charges of indecent liberties with a minor, a felony.

that the victims were struck with pepper spray. The suspects took a cell phone and money from the victims once they were contaminated. No suspects were identified and no arrests were made.

Man commits robbery, leads police on high speed chase: At 12:01 a.m. on July 15 in the 400 block of S. 316th Place, police were dispatched to a report of an armed robbery. The victim stated that a gun was pulled on them and the suspect left in a red Ford with a silver door.

An officer saw a vehicle matching the description near Celebration Park and signaled for the driver to pull over. The car indicated it was going to pull into the parking lot. When the officer exited his vehicle, the red Ford fled at a high rate of speed, nearly hitting another vehicle on South 332nd Street.

Three police vehicles began to chase the suspect. The suspect briefly veered into oncoming traffic on South 336th Street. Officers attempted a PIT maneuver, but were unsuccessful on the first attempt.

They tried it once more and pushed the car to the curb causing it to come to a complete stop. The suspect fled on foot past a closed Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant. He dove into some bushes to hide, but the officers caught up to him. He surrendered as one of the officers held him at

According to the Washington Poison Center, the number of marijuana edible intoxications reported in King County in 2014 was 73 percent higher than in 2013, and there is an upward trend in 2015. Children 5 years and younger accounted for about 30 percent of all ed-

ible marijuana intoxication reports in 2014. Seventythree percent of children required evaluation at a hospital.

Most intoxications among children occur when a child finds marijuana-containing products such as candy, chocolate or baked goods left unattended in the home.

Cashier threatened by robber: At 1:59 a.m. on July 13 in the 1700 block of S. 356th St., police responded to a robbery report at a Chevron gas station. An employee stated she was sweeping outside of the store when a vehicle pulled up to the entrance but did not move.

She entered the store and went behind the counter.

A tall, blue-eyed, Caucasian male entered wearing half a ski mask and a zip-up hoody. He walked up to the counter and asked for a pack of cigarettes. As she turned around, he told her to open the till. As she attempted to ring up the cigarettes, he shouted, “Open the f*** till or I’ll come back and kill you.” She opened both tills, but he was disappointed that they only contained $1 bills and $5 bills. He stole a total of $182 and a pack of cigarettes. He left in a blue Ford Explorer. Police were able to review video surveillance footage, but were unable to make any arrests at that time.

Officers searched the Ford and found a handgun. They then interviewed the four passengers who were in the vehicle. One woman and her 17-year-old friend were offered a ride by the suspect while in Fife. She knew one of the other passengers.

She fell asleep until they were originally pulled over. She heard the suspect say, “F*** this, I’m ditching,” before speeding off.

Another passenger had fallen asleep, but awoke during the chase and begged the driver to pull over. The final passenger was transported to St. Francis Hospital for a possible broken ankle. He did not know why the cops were chasing them at the time.

The suspect was taken back to the patrol car and later booked into SCORE jail. Officers found a bag of methamphetamine on the suspect during a search. They tried to contact the original caller, but were unable to do so.

Man pleads guilty to attempted drive-by shooting

BY RAECHEL DAWSON rdawson@fedwaymirror.com

A

Federal Way man pleaded guilty on July 16 to his involvement in a drive-by shooting that killed an Auburn man on Jan. 22.

Although Kenneth SakSee, 19, of Federal Way admitted to one count of “attempted drive-by shooting,” investigators do not believe he is the one who killed the only victim of the shooting, Auburn resident Erik Raul Reynaga, 19.

According to Renton police Commander David

Leibman, the suspect who As the two drove to killed Reynaga was not the complex, Reynaga charged or arrestreceived a text mesed because “there sage from a male is a strong element who told him there of self-defense were people at his that the prosecumother’s residence tor is evaluating as at the apartments we speak.” and he “needed According to them gone,” accharging docuErik Raul Reynaga cording to court ments, the drivedocuments. by occurred after He further Sak-See and Reynaga went requested Reynaga shoot out one January evening to some rounds to scare the Crystal Pointe Apartthem away. ments in Federal Way.

the passenger’s seat.

They then did a Uturn on Southwest 356th Street and returned to the complex.

Sak-See again put his arm outside of the car on the passenger’s window and shot more rounds, the documents continue.

At some point, someone shot Reynaga. The Mirror is in the process of obtaining the details of how this

happened.

After the shooting, Sak-See fled on foot and officers found Reynaga’s body next to the car he was driving a short while later. There were multiple casings in the area.

A few days later, SakSee went to Reynaga’s mother’s house and admitted he was involved in the shooting.

After turning himself in, he told police he hid the gun he shot in the air at his father’s home in a closet.

Federal Way police arrested Sak-See and he agreed to an interview, in which he admitted his part in the shooting.

King County prosecutors are recommending Sak-See face 11 1/4 months in custody with no contact with Crystal Pointe Apartments, and 18 months of community custody after release.

Sak-See’s sentencing is set for Aug. 14 before Judge Andrea Darvas at the Regional Justice Center in Kent.

Carol Gregory: Our no-nonsense representative who gets it done.

We were all saddened last year by the passing of State Representative Roger Freeman. He served honorably and was known for working across party lines to focus on our issues here at home.

I’ll work every day to honor Roger’s legacy of commitment to public service and getting results for our communities.

That’s why so many are supporting Carol Gregory.

Federal Way Mayor Jim Ferrell * Pacific Mayor Leanne Guier * WA State Labor Council (AFL-CIO) * WA Federation of State Employees * AFSCME/County & City Employees Council 2 *Machinists Union Local 751* Electrical Workers 46 * Electrical Workers 77 * LIUNA Laborers 242 * PTE-Professional/Technical Employees 17 *Service Employees Local 775 * Service Employees 1199NW * Grocery Workers Local 21 * NARAL/Pro-choice WA * Planned Parenthood Votes Northwest * Washington Conservation Voters * 30th LD Democrats * Dan Olmstead --Poverty Bay Cafe * and many, many more...

This starts with education. I helped turn around the Federal Way school district after a series of financial missteps. Now, I’m ready to take my experience as a teacher and school board member to Olympia to help our public schools with clear, straightforward curriculums that reduce achievement gaps and improve graduation rates.

I’m excited to bring innovative thinking and fiscal discipline to our state’s education programs.

We need to do a better job of reducing partisanship. Olympia is not Washington D.C. Our legislature needs to produce tangible results you can feel here at home. I will do my part to keep my head down, work across party lines and get things done for the 30th Legislative District.

I ask for your support.
