City misses another round of federal funding for PAEC Officials look at plan to fill $32.7 million funding gap, re-evaluate New Markets Tax Credits

ith the goal of being completely transparent, Mayor Jim Ferrell sat at his desk Tuesday afternoon and revealed two uncertainties for the future of Federal

Way’s downtown.

The city did not receive any bids from developers for the Town Center 3 project, Ferrell said. While two developers were interested, neither one submitted an application.

“So, yes, the first thing again, transparency,” he

said. “Now, it actually makes sense because on one level, a couple of different levels, we actually are not due for final approval on the [Performing Arts and Events Center] until Oct. 6.”

Ferrell said the Performing Arts and Events Center is the “linchpin” of the city’s downtown, and without that yet in place, developers were uncertain about the project.

The city bought Town Center 3, the 7.5 acre former-Target site, for $8.2

million in November 2014 in an effort to turn around the city’s “blight.”

Another concern, the potential developers expressed, centered around the location and orientation of the hotel that will be on the arts center’s property.

That concern, Ferrell said, will likely be resolved after a $10,000 hotel study is complete in September. Once complete, the hotel study will be marketed to the six to seven hoteliers interested

in the hotel site.

“What happens to Town Center 3 is completely dependent on the [events center,]” Ferrell said, adding that the city will focus on completing the remodel of Town Square Park, finishing the hotel study as well as the events center before they reopen the bidding process for Town Center 3.

“We’re confident but we’ve got to remove the uncertainty from this process, so we think it’s a matter of timing,”

he continued. “With that being said, the second piece of information that we just received was in regard to New Markets Tax Credits.”

Since the Mayor’s Blue Ribbon Panel members delivered their findings on the Performing Arts and Events Center in May 2014, federal funds from New Markets Tax Credit allocations were thought of as a risky way to help fund at least $7 million of a $5-9 million shortfall of [ more PAEC, page 11 ]

Elementary teacher arrested for alleged child sexual abuse

BY RAECHEL DAWSON rdawson@fedwaymirror.com

King County detectives arrested a Federal Way Public Schools secondgrade teacher on Tuesday for suspicion of sex crimes against boys.

Sunnycrest Elementary teacher Patrick Belser, age 44, was immediately placed on administrative leave when school district officials learned of the allegations — which school officials do not believe involve students.

Sunnycrest Elementary Principal Rudy Baca sent out a letter to parents on Thursday explaining the situation. The school is located in Kent.

“It’s important to know the King County detectives do not believe that stu-

dents at Sunnycrest were victimized or involved,” said Federal Way Public Schools spokeswoman Ann Cook. “Further, law enforcement officials have stated these allegations are not related to his work while employed in the Federal Way school district.”

Investigators believe the sex crimes occurred years ago outside of the school district.

A King County Superior Court judge set Belser’s bail at $150,000 as the prosecutor reviews the case for a charging decision.

King County Sheriff ’s Office probable cause documents reveal investigators spoke with three victims, one of whom is the teacher’s relative, on July 14-15.

Belser’s relative told police the sexual abuse started when he was 12 years old during a summer break in Vancouver, Washington. [ more TEACHER, page 8 ]

signs of forced entry.

After police couldn’t get a hold of Betzendorfer at first, they contacted her father, who said the house has been shown to interested buyers numerous times but is supposed to be locked after every showing.

A realtor, who was showing the residence at the time of police investigations the next day, reported the windows in the back do not latch.

Betzendorfer’s father provided a list of missing items, which also included a Sears refrigerator and copper fittings from underneath the upstairs master bathroom sink.

“The appliances alone were $8,000, closer to $10,000,” Betzendorfer said.

“That’s going to be the biggest gouge.”

Witnesses described a suspect as a white man, in his 30s, wearing all camouflage with black gloves and a snowboarding hat, and another suspect, also a white male in his 30s, but with black hair and black clothing.

With no further leads, police have deemed the case inactive.

Betzendorfer’s brother had been living in the house before it was put up for sale.

The home is vacant and has been for sale since July 14.

Several neighbors called police around 3 p.m. that day to report a suspicious pickup truck at the house, located in the 32800 block of Eighth Place SW. Witnesses told police two men loaded a refrigerator, a cupboard and more items into the truck before leaving the area. Further, the truck had no license plates on it, according to a police report.

Betzendorfer said the thieves took more.

“They took all the brand new appliances, a new stove and oven, a microwave, dishwasher, trash compactor, light fixtures, French doors and door frames, mirrors on medicine cabinets, shower heads, and carpet out of one room,” she listed.

But the burglars were interrupted, Betzendorfer believes, because the gas insert of her fireplace had been pulled out and it appeared they were in the middle of taking items when police arrived.

Police searched the area but couldn’t find the white Chevy with a blue top, as neighbors described. Upon searching the house, they noted an open garage door and open window on the south side. There were no

The burglary came at an already-trying time for Betzendorfer. She just learned her home in Spokane will need a new drain field, a $12,000-$15,000 expense, and her 17-year-old was recently in a car accident, so she’s had to walk four miles to a bus stop to go to her job as a nurse.

“It’s a huge financial setback,” she said. “My daughter will have to postpone college for six months.

We’re gonna have to make a couple of changes in our life, put some things on the back-burner.”

In spite of it all, Betzendorfer has a positive outlook.

“I’m a nurse, so I have seen people at their worst and just awful tragedies and situations,” she said. “No matter what I go through, that’s what I figure. I know there’s always other people going through worse.”

Federal Way Police Department spokeswoman Cathy Schrock said this year, overall, residential burglary is down by nearly half in Federal Way, which matches the trend for the neighborhood the house is located in.

“We understand this certainly does not relieve the loss or fears associated with the burglary, however, it is notable the success we have had reducing this particular crime overall,” Schrock said in an email. “This is due, in part, to neighbors coming together to solve problems.”

She said even though the truck’s license plate couldn’t be identified, police will still consider its description in ongoing analysis of residential burglaries in the city. If it’s involved in additional crimes in the future, police can make connections.

Metro meets with stakeholders to look at 2040 long-range plan

BY TERRENCE HILL thill@fedwaymirror.com

M

etro Transit representatives took a look into the future as they detailed their long-range transportation plans in southwest King County on Tuesday.

Members of the Greater Federal Way Chamber of Commerce attended the roundtable. Their primary interests were transportation within and to Federal Way as the city continues to grow.

“This is going to be the playbook by which Metro grows its system,” Metro strategic partnership advisor Kim Beklund said.

“For cities like yours that are constantly in change, it’s so critical that we hear from you and that we’re designing the system in a way that is gonna accommodate what your requirements are.”

The plan is focused on the potential plans for Metro transit in the year 2040. They have analyzed how prioritizing three different types of services will impact cities in the region, including frequent, express and local.

Each plan still contains elements of the other two, but at a reduced service percentage.

“For Federal Way, you’re in a really interesting geographic position,” Beklund said. “You have a lot of trips coming into and out of your area.

We think there is great opportunity here, particularly on the express side, to really move people more effectively and still provide the all-day service that people are requiring.”

The express priority

Metro Transit’s long-range plan is being developed through feedback from community members and stakeholders. The plan looks at service in the year 2040. Contributed photo plan focuses on getting buses longer distances in less time by keeping the amount of stops on a route lower. Buses would run every 15-30 minutes for 15 hours a day.

The Federal Way Transit Center and Twin Lakes park and ride both provide the types of locations the express plan looks to serve as many of the users of public transportation drive to these locations first before taking the bus. The drawback is that there are less stops in proximity to those who may be looking to walk or ride a bike to a nearby bus stop.

Based on the projections, this plan would serve more residents of Federal Way during peak hours — 6-9 a.m. — than the other two would. During the midday, however, the express plan would serve the least amount of residents.

The local priority plan is used to serve harder to reach areas to improve proximity to transit for

residents. This plan utilizes half-mile route spacing in order to provide many stops along the way.

Alternative routes are also already included in this plan for hard-to-serve areas. One area that was mentioned as underserved by both Deputy Mayor Jeanne Burbidge and Coucilwoman Susan Honda was the Dumas Bay Centre.

The area around the Dumas Bay Centre is left out of regular route plans due to presumably low use by residents.

“If we did put service out there, we would then evaluate it,” Metro transportation planner Stephen Hunt said. “Either it would continue to perform well and we’d be happy with it or it would do poorly and cause us to re-think is this investment worth the return. So that’s what’s pushing us to thinking about alternative services. How can we make that connection, but not at high costs?” [ more TRANSIT, page 8 ]

Major upsets with primary election results In the midst of a predictable primary election, there were two major surprises.

The biggest was a huge upset in the race for the South King Fire and Rescue board of commissioners as Bill Fuller will not only advance to the general election but will do so as the leading candidate with 42 percent of the vote.

The thorn in the side of the fire district, Jerry Galland received 23 percent and Roger Flygare, the chosen candidate of the fire district insiders, had 35 percent as of the Mirror’s publishing deadline.

This is Fuller’s first run for public office and he is not well known, which may have actually worked to his advantage. He isn’t anti-South King Fire and Rescue, nor is he too cozy with the district. However, he did make clear that he thought some policy changes were in order.

With Fuller and Galland’s combined votes of 65 percent, there appears to be a message to

the current board and administration that the public is growing restless with the controversies and appearance of inside favoritism.

Going into the primary, Flygare had all the advantages and was expected to be the leader heading into the general election.

Flygare has run for the state Legislature and the City Council and is well known. He had the endorsements of the incumbent commissioners, the fire chief and was pictured with union firemen in mailers.

And in the debate sponsored by the Mirror, Flygare said he thought everything in the fire district was just fine. The message was clear to voters, the South King Fire and Rescue establishment wants to continue business as usual and anointed Flygare as their choice to join the insiders club.

The voters thoughts, however, were not reacBob Roegner

A

s election season begins to heat up with candidate forums, I have one question: where do you all stand on providing free long-acting birth control for any teen or low income woman in our city and our state who wants it?

A research study in St. Louis and recent information about a program in Colorado have proven that when teenagers and poor women are offered free, long-acting birth control methods, results are astonishing.

Sexually active teens and women in poverty have chosen these methods overwhelmingly when they are provided confidentially and at no cost. Consequently, the pregnancy and abortion rates in their communities have plunged. Not only that, but the poverty rate also goes down.

Here in Federal Way, we need to be paying attention. Teen birth rates may be going down in general in the U.S., but they are much higher in communities where the poverty rate is higher.

And in Federal Way, our poverty rate is nearly 3 percent higher than the state average.

Public funding of long-acting birth control methods for women prevents millions of unintended pregnancies and hundreds of thousands of abortions every year.

You may not want to pay for long-acting birth control for teens and poor women, but make no mistake — you’ll pay one way or the other. In Colorado, an assessment by the state health department stated each dollar spent on long-acting reversible contraceptives saves almost $6 for the state’s Medicaid program. And guess what pays for more than 75 percent of teenage pregnancies and births? Yep. Medicaid. That happens here in Washington, too.

Here in Federal Way, I want to live in a community that openly supports young women to have a say over when and with whom they have children. I want to live in a community that sees the connection between unintended pregnancy and poverty, and steps up to provide services to help make sure people don’t have to be parents before they want to.

More planes flying over Federal Way There are days now when an airplane flies over the middle of Federal Way every minute-and-a-half. This means non-stop noise, soot, grit, suspected fuel dumps and possible accidents.

There are even a couple of flights around 2 a.m., which are so loud that they rattle the windows and wake me out of a sound sleep.

It wasn’t this bad six

months ago. Normally planes fly over the State Route 99/Interstate 5 corridor. SeaTac Airport announced that they have the middle runway closed for repairs until October. But all three runways are parallel to each other, so there should not be a change in flight patterns. I’ve called the SeaTac noise complaint line several times and filed complaints on their website. I’ve had to leave phone messages. So far nobody has called me back or responded to the filings.

Since this is a quality of life issue in our city, I sent an email to Mayor Jim Ferrell. As far as I know, Federal Way was not notified about the runway closure or about the increased flights over us.

Mayor Ferrell and his Chief of Staff Brian Wilson met with Port of Seattle

officials and were told that the airport now uses a GPS landing system, which makes for tighter circles for landings and takeoffs and saves the airlines fuel. Good for the airlines. Non-stop noise and air pollution for us.

I met with Wilson and believe that both he and the mayor are very concerned about this problem. This is not something the mayor nor the city has control over.

They will have to negotiate with the Port of Seattle.

They need your support.

Call Mr. Wilson at 253-8352510 or email him your concerns at brian.wilson@ cityoffederalway.com.

In 2011, then-Mayor Skip Priest was told the “Port has excluded the city from the noise program boundary and the Port has not analyzed data it collects

from Federal Way-area noise monitoring stations.”

(Federal Way Mirror article, Aug. 29, 2011, “Airport Noise: Federal Way Pressures Port of Seattle.”)

Mayor Ferrell has a big job ahead of him as we have now reached a point where planes are flying over us non-stop. Delta Airlines alone plans to add over 130 more flights per day. So this will probably not get better when they finish the runway repair in October.

We need to make our voices heard. You may sleep with your windows closed and not hear the noise. But you’ll still get the daily pollution, including possible fuel dumps.

Call the Port’s noise complaint number at 206-7875393 or file online. Search for “Noise Comment FormPort of Seattle.” You may

also call Ms. Linda Stewart, director of the Port’s community partnerships at 206-787-7983 or email stewart.l@portseattle.org.

Q&A with Mr. FW: Federal funding fiasco

Q

: Mr. Federal Way, I noticed you didn’t have an opinion on the primary election results last week. How could you miss such an opportunity to tell it like it is?

A: Believe it or not, Mr. Federal Way was enjoying a nice trip to the San Juan Islands with Mrs. Federal Way last week and didn’t hear about the straight mockery of votes garnered for one particular candidate until it was published in the Mirror on Friday.

Mr. Federal Way had a nice opinion about this candidate, who will not be named, until the Mirror’s famous candidate’s forum in which this person managed to ruin all positive perceptions anyone had about him. If you weren’t there, you don’t know.

For anyone who attended that forum, about 50 people, to vote for him would have indicated their viewpoints are just as ridiculous as some of his.

Whether or not what he said was true (refer to July 10 candidate forum story) it was absolutely unprofessional for this candidate to act how he did. What happened to leaders who

are poised, level-headed and know how to act like normal people in public settings? This candidate may have some ideas worth discussing but he threw all credibility as a viable candidate out the door at that forum. Mr. Federal Way feels sorry for all of the ignorant people who voted for him.

Looking forward to more drama, grey areas and, oh, politics.

Q: Mr. Federal Way, city staff updated the City Council on all the financial particulars of the Performing Arts and Events Center during the council meeting on Tuesday. Is it just me, or was the city selling their plan as more positive than what is really going on?

A: Mr. Federal Way has never drank the city’s KoolAid, which is full of more preservatives and positive spins than Mr. Federal Way can stomach. Mr. Federal Way won’t drink it and Mr. Federal Way doesn’t buy it.

[ LETTERS from page 4]

by current president Gary Darcey.

What was not addressed in the article is that only Lake Lorene has received such attention because it is owned by the Homeowners Association. Lake Jeanne, the other Twin Lake, is owned by the Twin Lakes Golf and Country Club, a separate entity. As the responsible owner, the country club has taken little actions concerning the presence of algae growth on Lake Jeanne or their fairway pond.

For the past two years, Lake Jeanne has tested positive for toxic blue-green algae and the club’s actions have been limited to water sampling with no action taken to curtail algae growth on this lake.

Because of the level of toxins this year, the club is testing lake water on a weekly basis and has posted caution signage.

However, the city of Federal Way recently put out warnings that Lake Jeanne has toxic algae present and that the lake is unsafe for people and pets.

Of significance, the club is using this toxic water from Lake Jeanne to spray irrigation water onto the golf courses’s fairways and greens. This could be a health hazard to golfers, fairway residents and perhaps even to the public. This is in addition to the lakeside residents who have had constant exposure to the toxic conditions for the last two summer seasons.

Perhaps the Mirror reporting staff could contact the Twin

Do you, or someone you know, need help with anxiety, depression, or substance abuse?

Readers should be well aware of how Mr. Federal Way has always stood on the city relying on federal New Markets Tax Credits to fund the Performing Arts and Events Center.

Mr. Federal Way has said city officials enjoy roulette, as they placed $7.2 million worth of hope on the black and held their breath to see where the ball falls when the wheel stops.

Well, the wheel stopped and the ball fell on the red, which means the city doesn’t get the money. Mayor Jim Ferrell and his staff are selling this as, “Oh don’t worry, we missed the first round but there’s another wave coming.” Are we surfing, Mr. Mayor? Surfing for a positive spin, perhaps.

There was already little likelihood of Federal Way obtaining $7.2 million and Mr. Federal Way doubts there is anything earthshattering that the city can do to get the money in the next month. What’s even more unsettling is the city was unaware of a stipulation that 80 percent of the allocations had to go to 10

underserved states. Why was the city unaware of this stipulation? How long has the federal government stipulated that 80 percent goes to underserved states?

And now, for this second wave, the city may only get $3-4 million.

Mr. Federal Way wonders how much money the city has already spent on plane tickets for city staff and the mayor to travel to other states to try and keep on top of the New Markets Tax Credit funding. And hotel rooms, and consultants and the list goes on.

Enough is enough.

The financial model upon which the events center was based was already shaky at best. And now the city’s financial need may just get needier for this project.

Perhaps Mr. Federal Way will throw the city a bone and purchase a chair for $1,000.

Q: Mr. Federal Way, are you done shopping for your kids’ school supplies?

A: None of your business.

Church with a big heart One of the churches with the biggest of hearts is The Church of the Good Shepherd. If you are driving along South 312th Street at approximately Third Street and look to the south side of the road you will see the church.

With a membership of approximately 200, they serve their church members in many ways under the guidance of Reverend Esther Poirier. However, that guidance reaches extensively into the greater community through a number of outreach programs.

On Tuesday and Friday between 9-11 a.m., you can see people who live within the Federal Way school district or Northeast Tacoma lining up outside the church’s fellowship hall in the lower parking lot waiting to visit with volunteers from the Federal Way Community Caregiving Network.

They are seeking help with their rent, limited hotel stay for homeless families, gas vouchers, bus tickets or a bag of food. Since 2001, the church has made one of their portables available to the Caregiving Network to provide this service.

BECU Foundation awards 80

scholarships to students FROM STAFF REPORTS

BECU young members are excelling in the classroom and the community.

Thanks to the generosity and donations from the community and BECU employees, the BECU Foundation awarded 80 students with a $3,000 scholarship.

Two of those students include Federal Way residents Christina Huber and Madison Rogers.

Huber is attending Stanford University. For her service project, she tutored math and other subjects at a local at-risk school.

Rogers is attending Colorado School of Mines with a major in computer engineering. For her service project, she raised money to assist individuals with diabetes through the Junior Diabetes Research Foundation.

The selected students and their families were honored at a breakfast at Safeco Field featuring guest speakers Debra Music, Chief Marketing Officer Theo Chocolate and Rick Rizzs, Mariners broadcast announcer.

The scholarship recipients were selected based on their excellence in the community and in the classroom.

On Saturday afternoons, the fellowship hall is again open for the Caregiving Network’s free community meal. And it does not stop there.

The church has also been the host church for homeless women needing a place to be warm, eat, sleep and be safe from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. through the Reach Out Program during the months of October through April.

Council approves contract with Centerstage Theatre

BY TERRENCE HILL thill@fedwaymirror.com

The Federal Way City Council voted during their meeting on Tuesday to approve the new contract agreement with Centerstage Theatre.

“This has been the product of a lot of hard work and a lot of patience and goodwill,” Mayor Jim Ferrell said. “I think it’s a win-win-win. A win for Centerstage, for the city

and also for the public. I think we’re going to have a much better run facility and be able to use this public facility to its fullest and best use.”

The agreement will run from October 2015 through June 2018. The city will pay a management fee of $82,000 a year from October 2015 through April 2016.

The fee will increase to $100,000 from May 2016

through June 2018.

Upkeep of the Knutzen Family Theatre at Dumas Bay Centre, which Centerstage has operated since 2009, will be covered by the management fee.

The city will acquire the ability to rent out the space in front of the theatre area, the rehearsal hall and lobby area of Dumas Bay Centre.

This will generate revenue and save money for future capital expenses.

Centerstage will keep the rental income from current tenants until April 2016.

The city will begin managing and retaining rental income from nonperformance based renters in May 2016.

Public support for Centerstage came immediately after city officials announced they would let their contract with the group expire on June 30.

The city received over

800 emails in support of Centerstage from Federal Way residents and nonresidents.

“What we saw in the last several months is definitely unique,” Councilman Martin Moore said. “You got people actively involved through grassroots and making sure your voices are being heard. I think it’s safe to say that City Hall heard you guys loud and clear.”

Council approves $10,000 budget allocation for historical society

BY TERRENCE HILL thill@fedwaymirror.com

D

uring Tuesday’s City Council meeting, the council approved a $10,000 Lodging Tax Advisory Committee budget allocation for the Historical Society of Federal Way. But before the vote, Councilwoman Susan Honda motioned for the item to be pulled from the agenda for a separate discussion.

“The reason I pulled this item is that there was a request for $20,000 and we were only able to allocate $10,000,” Honda said. “We’ve heard tonight how well we were doing financially. I find it hard to believe that we can’t find $10,000 more to give them the $20,000 they requested.”

Other council members agreed the Historical Society’s work is important to the city and that they should be supported in full.

Councilwoman Kelly Maloney suggested that they move forward with the $10,000 but make a commitment to find a way to fund the rest. Honda stated the commitment was what she wanted in order to ensure the rest of the money was not forgotten.

“Our history cannot be stressed enough,” Maloney said. “Our school children need to learn more about what our history is and I just think it’s essential that we support this entity in our community.”

Deputy Mayor Jeanne Burbidge agreed

Death with Dignity participation rises slightly FROM STAFF REPORTS

It’s been six years since Washington’s Death with Dignity Act went into effect and since that time, 725 adults with a terminal illness have chosen to end their lives with a physician-prescribed lethal dose of medication.

There were 176 terminally ill patients in 2014 who received a prescription to help them end their lives.

on moving forward with the first $10,000 and said the appropriate directors would discuss where the rest of the funding could come from.

Councilman Martin Moore also stated that the city needs to do more than just give funding to the Historical Society by doing more policy work that will support the organization as well.

Some of the services the funding will help with include light maintenance and cleaning of the Barker and Denny cabins at the West Hylebos Wetlands Park. The funds will also allow the Historical Society to make docents available to provide information to the public.

The cabins will be open during the months of May through October from noon to 4 p.m. on every second Saturday.

The Historical Society plans to enhance peoples’ experiences by bringing in local groups; such as the Northwest Woodcarvers, Crazy Quilters of Federal Way and the Old Time Fiddlers. They will hold special events such as the salmon release that will be coordinated with schools to bring students to the site.

“I would like at our next meeting in September, to be able to find the other $10,000 and get it to them,” Honda said.

“They need the money and they wouldn’t have asked for the money had they not needed it. It’s very important to me and to everyone up here that we fund this completely and totally as requested.”

Mayor Jim Ferrell gave his guarantee that city officials would find the money.

The prescriptions were written by 109 different physicians and were filled by 57 different pharmacists.

Of the 176 people who received these prescriptions, 170 are known to have died.

Death with Dignity participation rose less than 2 percent in 2014 compared to the previous year, although more than half of those who died last year were women — up from 48 percent in 2013.

Those who died after receiving the lethal medications were between the ages of 21 to 101.

As in previous years, many patients choosing

to receive the medication listed the loss of independence as the reason for participating.

The state Department of Health monitors compliance with reporting requirements and produces an annual report using information collected from patients and providers who participate.

The 2014 Death with Dignity Act Report and information about Washington’s Death with Dignity Act are on the agency website.

...OBITUARIES Steve W. Adams

Steve W. Adams, 64 of Kent, passed away suddenly on Sunday, July 26, 2015. He was a loved husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and friend.

He was born on April 1, 1951 in Indianapolis, Indiana, the son of Elmer (Butch) and Margaret (Lucille) Adams. The family moved to California when Steve was young and he graduated in 1970 from Ganesha High School in Pomona, California.

Steve married Mary McCarty on December 16, 1972. Steve and Mary moved to Washington in 1977 and they have resided in the Kent area for the last 38 years. They had five loving children between 1974 and 1990, four daughters and one son.

He was a welder and fabricator vendor for a number of South King County companies for 30 years. He had many interests that he enjoyed but was most fond of raising fancy pigeons with his son, which he began in 2003.

Steve survived by his wife Mary; daughter Patricia and husband Jason; daughter Jennifer and husband Doni; daughter Katherine; daughter Stephanie and husband Michael; son Johnny; his mother Lucille; sister Becky and husband Bryon; brotherin-law Gary; sister-in-law Susi; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives, and friends.

He was preceded in death by his father, Elmer (Butch), his brother Johnny, and his sister Debbie.

A funeral mass will be said and celebration of life will be shared with family and friends later in August.

Memorials may be made to the American Heart Association in honor of Steve Adams. If you would like to help the family, please visit their YouCaring page: http://www.youcaring.com/mary-adams-401626.

Corey Ray Smith Corey Ray Smith, 55, beloved father, brother and friend, died Tuesday, July 21, after a long illness. He was surrounded by his children and loved ones at St. Francis Hospital in Federal Way at the time of his passing.

Corey was a sensitive and caring soul, exemplary big brother, and loving father. He was committed from a young age to protecting and helping support his siblings, his mother, and later his own children and grandchildren. He was generous and compassionate beyond all expectations, and never hesitated to sacrifice his own comfort to ensure his children and others he loved had what they needed. He loved music, spending time with friends and family, and the occasional beer or shot of tequila, and is best remembered by those who knew him for his easy, distinct and infectious laugh. Even through life's hardest trials, he maintained a positive attitude and sense of humor that brought joy to everyone around him.

Corey was born in Fullerton, Calif., on June 21, 1960, and was the eldest of five children born to Don Smith and Jean Elizabeth Hart. His formative years were spent in Yorba Linda, Calif., and other cities in Southern California. He started his own family, with wife Michele, when they married in 1978. They were together nearly two decades, raised three children, and remained close friends until Corey's passing. Corey also had a second marriage, to wife Jhan-Moneeh Chau, from 2007 to 2012, and for their honeymoon, he accomplished his life-long dream of cruising to Alaska.

Though he was a proud native of Southern California, Corey also lived in Arizona, in the Northern California town of Shasta Lake City, and he settled in the Federal Way/Kent/Tacoma area in 1996.

He spent his remaining years in Washington, close to his children and grandchildren. A bright, resourceful and multi-talented man, Corey was a hard and loyal worker who pursued several careers over the years. Those jobs included working as a foreman, and later office manager, for family-owned construction business Smith and Sons, as manager of several auto parts stores, and most recently as a freight coordinator for the Holland America Line, where he began working in 1996. He sometimes half-joked he'd actually always wanted to be an accountant, and though that wasn't meant to be, he used his considerable knack for numbers to do income taxes for friends and family year after year, always free of charge and with no expectation of returned favors.

For the last few years, Corey suffered from a degenerative brain disease called Lewy Body Dementia. He spent his last birthday—which was also the first day of Summer and, this year, Father's Day—in the company of his children, grandchildren and surviving siblings. His family takes comfort in knowing he's left to reunite with his beloved mother Jean, late brother Craig, and other loved ones.

Corey is survived by his father, Don Smith; sister Kimberly Smith Parris; brothers Christopher and Kenneth Smith; son Corey Ray Smith, Jr., and his partner Adriana Valencia Barajas; daughter Cassandra Anne Clark and her husband Casey; son Michael Ryan Smith and his wife Stephanie; grandchildren Taylor, Elyana, Caylee, Carter, Aviana; and many nephews, nieces, cousins, and others who loved him like family.

A memorial for Corey will be held at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 15, on Lake Meridian in Kent.

The address is 25840 135th Lane SE. Another memorial will be held in Chico, Calif., on Sunday, Sept. 6., with the location to be determined. His ashes will be interred alongside his mother and brother at Whiskeytown Lake, in his home state of California. His children have established Corey Smith's Memorial page on Facebook to share pictures and memories, as well as a YouCaring account to help cover memorial and other end-of-life costs.

He said the abuse would happen every summer, about five to six times, and the suspect would offer him money to perform the sex acts. Pornography was easily available, as well.

As the victim got older and more resistant, Belser would allegedly offer more money and video games.

The abuse also got worse.

The victim told police he and his friends were allowed to drink alcohol at Belser’s house at the age of 15-16, the documents continue.

Now an adult, the victim said the last sexual assault occurred when he was 17-years-old.

He told his mother about what happened in May and the next month the teacher and victim corresponded through email, in which the victim says he can never talk or see Belser again.

“You were [my relative], you were supposed to be trusted and protecting but

did things no child should ever have to endure and for years I thought it was just a phase or something that some people go through,” the victim wrote. “Well, I know now and I have for a while that what you did was wrong and vile and sick and twisted. You abused me, my trust, my age and you stole my innocence. I directly relate what you did to a lot of the problems in my life now.”

Belser responded to the email by stating he is a different person now and explains what he thinks will happen if the information is made public.

“What is done is done.

I can’t take anything back.

The only way I can make it right is for us to start talking together about our feelings,” Belser wrote in the email. “I feel prosecution is nothing more than revenge since all it does is destroy and nothing good will come from it. Wow,

I wish I could turn back time because I didn’t realize I was causing so much hurt.”

Detectives also interviewed two other male victims, who are not related to the suspect.

One victim said Belser constantly made sexual requests, tried to grab his genitalia multiple times and would offer money for sexual acts. The suspect would offer him alcohol and marijuana but he would always say “no.”

Nevertheless, the victim woke up to the suspect allegedly performing sex acts on him or in compromising positions and he witnessed the suspect abusing his brother, according to court documents.

The third victim interviewed said Belser allegedly offered him back rubs and then inappropriately touched him and sexually abused him.

He would also drink alcohol and noted there was

pornography everywhere in the suspect’s apartment.

In the letter to parents, Baca explained the district will not be commenting any further on the case out of respect for the investigation, but will fully cooperate with authorities.

If parents notice behavior that makes them think their student might be struggling with anything related to this situation, Baca asks that they contact her directly.

If students have any information or concern, she asks parents to contact Detective Marylisa PriebeOlson with the King County Sheriff ’s Office at 206-263-2114.

“Whenever there is a crisis situation, we have staff at school who can offer support,” Cook said.

“This is hard to hear and it’s difficult to understand.”

Belser was hired in 2006 after passing a background check that showed no criminal history.

The frequent plan is the opposite with buses run-

ning every 10-15 minutes for 20 hours a day. It would provide the highest overall ridership in the area and lead to the most

jobs within 30 minutes.

meeting was the current lack of east-west transit options between Federal Way and its neighboring cities.

“There are a lot of students in Federal Way who we want to go to Highline of course, but go to Green River,” said Bob Roegner, Government Affairs Committee chair.

“From my days in Auburn, east-west transportation was literally non-existent.

That caught my attention, in terms of serving the needs of bringing people into Federal Way and the connection.”

“Long-range, Federal Way isn’t neccessarily interested in pumping people out north,” Rebecca Martin, CEO of the Greater Federal Way Chamber of Commerce said. “We want to move them in Federal Way to the jobs. How many jobs can you get to in 30 minutes? What does that mean if we’re connecting east-west? That is one of the issues we’re having in terms of the business com-

munity, is getting our own people to our jobs here.”

Metro’s representatives did say that there were east-west connections in all of the plans. They have also recently begun to focus on transit to and from colleges and universities as students are often users of public transportation.

The final plan will likely be a hybrid of all of the plans, according to Beklund.

Metro is currently in the alternatives phase of their four-part timeline.

It is in the second phase and is scheduled to run through the end of the month. They are shaping their final plan based on feedback from community members and stakeholders at this time and will continue to do so throughout the rest of the timeline.

The preliminary plan phase is scheduled to last from September through December. The final plan phase is scheduled to last from January 2016 through May 2016.

Man strangles and threatens ex-girlfriend CRIME

This week’s…

ALERT

Police Blotter Man found bleeding from mouth: At 2:10 a.m. on Aug. 9 in the 33600 block of Pacific Highway S., police saw a man standing on the corner of the road flailing his arms and yelling.

The man then stood in the middle of the northbound lane. Police decided to do a welfare check on the man. When the officer told the man to talk to him, he replied “give me some f*** water!”

The man began to back away from the officer after he was told to get out of the street. The officer drew his Taser and the man ran from him. The officer told him not to run and he stopped, but began to walk towards the officer. It was then that the officer saw the man was bleeding.

The man sat on the curb when ordered to and repeated that he wanted water. He then stated that he “raised the dead.” He was eventually detained and transported to St. Francis Medical Center.

Woman threatened by mysterious call: At 2:02 p.m. on Aug. 8 in the Christian Faith Center parking lot, officers re-

sponded to a distraught female.

The female stated she received a call from an unknown Mexico number three times. During the call, a female voice said that she wanted her to go home to Burien because she wanted to kill her.

The voice told her to look around for two Hispanic males who had guns on them. The female never saw any guns, but said that she saw some males in the area. An officer conducted an area check and could not corroborate her story. The female said she doesn’t know anyone from Mexico. An officer followed her to Highway 18 where she headed home. She did say that she took medication for bi-polar and schizophrenia disorders.

Phone stolen from man at gunpoint: At 11:42 p.m. on Aug. 9 in the 35000 block of Enchanted Parkway S., an officer responded to a reported robbery.

A 48-year-old man told police he was robbed in the parking lot of Olive Garden by a juvenile male he met for a phone transaction.

The juvenile told the man that he needed him to pick him up from Jack in the Box because he was having car troubles and needed to meet his mom at Olive Garden. The man took him to Olive Garden and the juvenile walked towards the restaurant.

When he returned, he produced a handgun and pointed it at the man. He told him to factory reset his phone before giving it to him and also took $220. The man was then told to drive to the freeway entrance off Enchanted Parkway South and let him out.

The juvenile was described as around 5-foot-6, 12-15 years old with a short afro. No suspects have been identified at the time of the report.

Man harasses couple: At 8:35 a.m. on Aug. 8 in the 31000 block of 28th Ave. S., police responded to a report of harassment. A woman stated that a white male in his 50s, 5-foot-7, thin build, with dark hair and wearing black rimmed glasses has been driving slowly by her home twice a week since December 2014.

She stated that the male slows down and honks while driving the length of her property. She said sometimes the male displays his middle finger to her or her husband and the male has cursed several times at her husband.

They do not know the man and do not know why he does this. He has not been located or identified.

Woman hits man with car: At 2:52 p.m. on Aug. 8 in the 1600 block of S. 348th St., police arrested a woman for assaulting

her ex-boyfriend. The two had an issue regarding a Chevy Tahoe they purchased while they were still dating. The man ended their five-year relationship in May and withheld the vehicle because she owed him money for insurance and loan payments.

The woman followed the man in another vehicle with her adult daughter. When he stopped at a red light, the woman entered his vehicle through the rear door. He got out of his vehicle to call 911 and she moved to the driver’s seat. As he stood in front of the car trying to block her from moving, she accelerated, sending him over the hood. He scraped his knee and elbow. The woman told police she didn’t remember hitting him when asked about it. She was transported to SCORE jail.

Daughter maces parents: At 5:25 a.m. on Aug. 7 in the 1300 block of S. 359th St., police responded to an altercation between a woman and her parents.

The daughter sprayed her mother with mace to keep her phone from being take away. During the scuffle, the father was also sprayed. The father struck the daughter to stop the fight. The daughter was booked for assault.

Woman receives lewd photo: At 3:07 p.m. on Aug. 7 in the

home, auto, property, restaurant, investment professionals

36800 block of Fifth Ave. SW, a woman told police that she received a call from a number she did not know two days prior. She attempted to call the number back but was unable to reach them.

The next day, at about 8:30 p.m., the woman received a photo message on her cell phone from the same number that had called her the previous day. The photo was a picture of male genitals.

The woman said she was not annoyed or harassed, but only wanted to advise police of the incident. A suspect was not located.

Patient assaults caregivers: At 3:55 p.m. on Aug. 9 in the 2100 block of SW 338th St., officers responded to a family care home for a report of a patient who physically assaulted a caregiver. Two victims reported the suspect punched and scratched them and hit them on in the head with a foot rest. The suspect was arrested and booked at SCORE jail.

Man tries to fight police at transit center: At 2:02 a.m. on Aug. 6 at the Federal Way Transit Center, police responded to a report of a male trying to fight people. The male assaulted a security guard. His friend was holding him back when officers arrived. When officers asked him who he was trying to fight he told them he wanted to fight them. An officer reached for his pepper spray and the male told

him not to use it and “just f*** kill me” repeatedly.

Officers eventually detained the man. His friend and girlfriend stated they were “shocked” at the restraint the police showed when the male was yelling at them. The male was booked into SCORE jail.

Man abuses woman at soccer field: At 7:50 p.m. on Aug. 6 at Karl Grosch Field, police responded to a report of a physical dispute. A witness reported that a male hit a female and he left afterwards. Police found the female victim and observed several injuries from physical abuse. It was determined that the suspect was her ex-boyfriend whom she had a no-contact order against.

The suspect was not located.

Woman kicks in door, takes TV: At 9:09 p.m. on Aug. 6 in the 1800 block of S. 308th Court, police responded to a report of a woman breaking into a home.

The woman went to a man’s apartment that she used to share with him and kicked in the locked door.

She then took her TV that she was storing there. The woman has a no-contact order against him, however, he had court paperwork showing he was in possession of the apartment. He said he would not assist in her prosecution and police advised him to consider a no-contact order of his own. Police were unable to locate the woman. [ more POLICE page 25 ]

Yet, city officials remained optimistic even after funding for the project was passed over last summer and, again, in the first wave of allocations this summer.

“When the allocations were made in June and they were issued, there was a stipulation that we were not aware of … I believe it was 80 percent of the allocations had to go to 10 underserved states,” Ferrell said, noting Wells Fargo received $75 million in New Markets Tax Credit allocations but only $15 million was available for all western states.

Further, there was a preference for rural areas — of which Federal Way is not.

And, as previously reported, the Community Development Financial Institution Clearinghouse, of which Economic and Development Director Tim Johnson is a board member, got nothing.

“Doug Bystry, with the [Community Development Financial Institution] Clearinghouse, he said if he got an allocation, it would nearly

“So, they didn’t get it for a second year in a row, which, that’s disappointing.”

But the city was told not to lose hope — there’s a second wave of federal allocations coming.

Projects will fall out of the pipeline as the entities get into underwriting, Ferrell said.

As projects are matched to community development entities (who received the allocations from the U.S. Department of Treasury in June), some aren’t awarded funds because they end up not qualifying for various reasons, such as a lack of a leverage loan or they aren’t “shovel ready.”

NEXT STEPS

Ferrell said the city will adopt a new approach for this second wave, which is coming in September.

After hiring Roeder and Associates out of Portland for their “extensive experience” with the New Markets Tax Credit program, Ferrell learned the city would have a higher chance of getting funds if they chopped their funding request by half.

million and hoping for $7 million, the city will now request $15 million in total credit allocations, which will put them at $3-4 million of actual funding.

“There are 26 community development entities that we have identified, approached and communicated with,” Ferrell said. “Now, I have personally written letters, myself and my staff, I’ve personally picked up the phone, written letters to different [entities].”

Johnson has even dedicated a white board in his office to this project.

“We’ve turned over every rock, at least in this first wave, but now it’s time to pivot, and it’s important for us to explain to the public why we’re pivoting and that we’re looking for the second wave,” Ferrell said.

But, what if the second year’s second wave of trying leaves the city nothing?

City officials presented their recent findings at Tuesday’s City Council meeting and council members were encouraging.

“Having done these lowincome housing tax credits,

time, you try again,” said Councilwoman Dini Duclos.

“The more shovel ready our project is, the more inclined they are to put the money in because they want — people are claiming taxes on these dollars — so they want these dollars spent as quickly as possible.”

Councilman Bob Celski acknowledged that “all of us are disappointed in the allocation or the constraints Congress put on these funds” but that it seemed like the constraints would change annually.

“This year, a select number of states were selected and certain community development entities, nothing of course in Washingtion,” Celski said, “But next year, those constraints could completely change and maybe Washington or the Pacific Northwest or something else, something like that, takes priority.”

Chief of staff Brian Wilson agreed that allocation priorities could change.

The mayor said the city is analyzing whether they will reapply for next year’s New Markets Tax Credit program,

August 14, 2015 [11] but a decision hasn’t yet been made (the deadline to apply is also in September).

“We’re looking at the costbenefit analysis in regard to what requirements are associated with New Markets Tax Credits and the possible lower amount, we’re sort of analyzing it,” he said. “But one of the things is, we’ve gone back to the board and we’ve really sharpened our pencils.”

FILLING THE GAP

Those “sharpened pencils” produced a detailed plan, which was also presented in great detail at the council meeting.

As of right now, the city has $16 million of the estimated $32.7 million events center project. About $12 million of the funding in place is made up of utility tax, LIFT and real estate excise taxes, fundraising, a Building for Arts grant, interest and a $120,000 4Culture grant.

Ferrell said that $12 million is in the bank, “ready to go.” The remaining $4 million is from state capital funding, which will be used in a “have to spend it to get it” manner.

Finance Director Ade Ariwoola noted that $4 million will be some of the first funds the city uses.

Pending resources include: $3 million from a Community Development Block Grant, Section 108 loan, another $2 million grant from 4Culture, $1.5 million from the sale of the hotel site and at least $3.5 million in naming rights, for a total of $10 million pending.

Ferrell noted the money from naming rights and the sale of the hotel site are likely to take longer to acquire than the loan and grant, which are expected in the next few months.

“The gap becomes all important and that’s where the inter-fund loan comes in,” Ferrell said.

Last July, the council approved a $13 million interfund loan, with 1 percent interest, in their passing of Resolution 14-667. The money is good for three years from when the city withdraws from that source.

But Ferrell said, because the money is already secured, the city won’t likely touch the inter-fund loan until about one year from now.

And that gap could shrink significantly in that one year.

The Federal Way Coalition of the Performing Arts has raised a total of about $750,000 ($676,146 of which is represented in the funds the city already has), and

are in the process of raising more through pledges and individual naming rights for items inside the Performing Arts and Events Center.

Think $10,000 for an elevator, $100,000 for a grand piano and $75,000 for the foyer, which will bring that total to $998,146.

The organization also expects to raise at least $1.1 million on top of that by selling naming rights to the 700 seats ($1,000 a seat), dressing rooms, green rooms, patrons lounge and the orchestra shell.

“It’s been going like gangbusters the past couple of weeks,” the mayor said.

“And it’s been kind of cool to watch this develop.”

And when the city decides to use whatever amount of money from that inter-fund loan, they will have three years before they need to pay it off through a 20-year bond, which will not include a special tax levy on citizens.

City officials say that money would come from the capital budget and cost the city about $600,000 a year for a $9 million bond yielding 3 percent.

“Keep in mind, that the performing arts center, during that three year period of time, will have already opened,” said Community Outreach and Government Relations Coordinator Steve McNey. “So the fundraising will continue throughout.

And by the time you get to a point where you’re going to have to bond anything, assuming we come in close to the fundraising goal, you’re getting that number to bond lower and lower and lower each time.”

The city need only hope for a bid that comes in or below the initial construction and development cost estimate of $32.7 million.

“We’re waiting on that to come in and that will be soon,” Ferrell said in response to whether he feared that price going up with bids.

After the bidding window opens on Aug. 19, developers will have until Sept. 16 to bid on the events center project. The City Council is then expected to give direction on whether to award the bid or not on Oct. 6.

If they give approval, the Performing Arts and Events Center will break ground as early as the third week of October. The city has already spent $3.8 million on land analysis, architects, a consulting firm, demolition, a director search, the director’s salary, a grand piano and more for the center.

This doesn’t include the $5.4 million land acquisition in December 2010.

male victims — ages 18 and 19 — were struck by gunfire and were treated at the hospital.

On July 31, the King County Medical Examiner’s Office announced that Dawud had died of a gunshot wound to his torso.

The two other victims survived.

All three men are from the Seattle area.

Witnesses said the suspect’s vehicle was described as a red Chevrolet Impala-style vehicle.

Anyone with more information regarding this crime should contact Federal Way police at 253-835-6799.

City staff submitted a water sample to the Department of Ecology’s Freshwater Algae Control Program to test for toxicity. The city will provide an update when the results become available. In the meantime, city staff recommended that people should not swim in or near areas containing a visible scum, or allow small

pets to drink algae impacted water.

City staff also cautions swimmers on Steel Lake.

While test results for that lake showed there are no detectable levels of toxins, the caution sign remains in place due to the possibility of changing lake conditions during the warm weather, city staff said.

He can be a little shy around really boisterous new people, so would prefer a home with kids at least 8 years and older who will understand Manny needs some time to get used to them. The vets at the shelter have diagnosed Manny with dermatitis and chronic ear infections and he may need to go on a special diet to help with that.

If you’re looking for a sweet boy to join your family, Manny may be the one for you. He is neutered, current on vaccinations and microchipped.

t’s the start of another school year, my first with Federal Way Public Schools, and I’m excited to be here.

This district is not afraid to be bold.

It required courage to adopt the phrase “All Means All” as a vision and mission. Very few districts have been willing to hold themselves to such a measure. This is the kind of thinking that attracted me to Federal Way. The work of educating our students is the single most important endeavor of our time and doing it well requires a community commitment.

I believe it is our obligation and moral imperative to give all students our very best, so they have every possible opportunity available to them for high school and beyond.

For that, I need your help. A superintendent doesn’t create a vision in isolation. It is done in partnership with our students, their parents, our staff, business community and our community-based partners.

In my first 100 days, I’ll be reaching out to all of you in traditional and nontraditional ways, including a series of community forums, to get a sense of the collective community vision for our schools.

Writing a shopping list ahead of time will help limit purchases. Having a budget will also allow consumers to put money towards items of higher priority.

• Shop at home. Look through items from last year and see if there are any left overs that could be reused.

• Research major purchases. Laptops, calculators and dorm furnishings come in an array of prices.

• Check for educational discounts. Many computer and software companies offer discounts to students.

• Buy in bulk. Get together with other parents and split up buying items that could be used by the entire class.

For example, within the math team there could likely be subset teams for pre-algebra, geometry and pre-calculus.

District-wide there was a huge launch on the Professional Learning Communities concept on July 29-30.

Pfeiffer said approximately 350 principals and teachers attended to grow their capacity of knowledge on what high-performing learning communities look and sound like.

The six half-day late starts will increase the number of student school days by two, up from 173 to 175.

According to school district administrators, bus schedules will be adjusted for those six days and lunch will still be served on those days.

As the new school year begins, I would like to wish each student success and adventure. Receiving an education is not just what you learn from a textbook. It’s also what you learn from the Jim Ferrell, wonderful interactions you will Federal Way Mayor experience between your friends, coaches, teachers, and fellow students. Starting a new year truly means you have the opportunity to expand your horizons. My advice to you is to reach for the outer limits of what you believe is possible.

Keep an open mind and above all, enjoy each moment.

I look forward to hearing of your successes throughout the year!

Jim Ferrell, Mayor

BALL CHIROPRACTIC CENTER

Serving Federal Way for 19 Years!

Dr. Stephen Ball

August 14, 2015 [21]

“After high school I’m looking for a college where I can be more than a student with books. I can be a student who’s making a difference on campus. I don’t want to be just an athlete with a sports uniform. I want to be the athlete that is going to impact the world.”

Katrice Pond, Golden Graduate Class of 2015

Katrice received fifteen full ride offers from colleges across the nation amounting in $1.8m scholarship monies, and ultimately signed with Grand Canyon University, Phoenix AZ

Thank you!

I want to thank the hundreds of people who came out to help with my campaign in the primary election. With your support we were able to win the primary, but now the real work begins.

Hopefully my message about fighting for kids in schools, supporting small businesses, limiting taxes and staying focused on ways to reduce congestion on our roads got through to voters. I am passionate about the quality of life we are creating for ourselves and our kids—more than ever we need our leaders to work together to find solutions.

I hope to continue to earn your support!

Immunization update time for kids is now FROM STAFF REPORTS

While kids across Washington are squeezing every ounce of fun out of summer, many parents are already looking forward to the beginning of the school year and planning for all that must be done before the first day of school.

Now is the time to get kids in to see their health care providers for required immunizations, yearly well-child checks and sports physicals. Families can cut down on back-to-school stress by getting the right immunizations for their students well before school starts. Students who aren’t in compliance with required vaccines may be kept out of school if a disease epidemic occurs.

“Now is the time to make sure you and your kids are fully vaccinated,” said state Department of Health officer Dr. Kathy Lofy. “Immunizations are the best tool we have to protect students from serious diseases that can spread quickly through schools.”

Parents can find the immunization requirements to start school and attend child care online. There are new changes to

the requirements this year for the chicken pox vaccine. It’s also important that kids are current on their whooping cough shots.

The disease is spreading in Washington and everyone can play a part in stopping it.

Due to the recent outbreak of whooping cough cases, state communicable disease epidemiologist Dr. Scott Lindquist reiterated the importance of getting kids vaccinated against the preventable disease.

“Whooping cough can be very dangerous for babies and young children. When school starts, whooping cough can spread easily from the classroom to the home.

Making sure that all kids and pregnant moms are up to date with the right shots to prevent whooping cough can protect babies and families.”

No-cost vaccines are available for all kids up to age 19 through health care providers taking part in the state’s Childhood Vaccine Program. Participating providers may charge for the office visit and an administration fee to give the vaccine. People who can’t afford the administration fee can ask for it to be waived.

For help finding a health care provider or an immunization clinic, call your local health agency or the WithinReach Family Health Hotline at 1-800-322-2588. For more information, visit www.doh.wa.gov

Free new school app will help parents, students stay connected

BY ANDREW FICKES For the Mirror

S

taying connected to the many things there are to know about Federal Way Public Schools has never been easier.

Community members, students, parents, school staff and administrators with access to a smart phone, iPad, Kindle or other portable devices can now download a free Federal Way Public Schools app.

“If you have a mobile device, we want you to download the app,” said Ann Cook, spokeswoman for Federal Way Public Schools.

The district did a soft launch of the app in fall 2014 and, to date, the new app has not caught on as fast as school administrators were expecting.

This summer, the school district did a concerted campaign to encourage anyone in Federal Way who wants to stay informed to download the app by searching for “Federal

Way” in either the Apple App Store or Google Play.

“When we think about people on mobile devices, we have to have a responsive design,” Cook said.

“The nice thing with the app is it’s optimized for mobile users. Just like our many ways to communicate with parents and families, they can choose the type of notifications they want sent to their smart phone.”

Cook said those who have downloaded the app said they like the easy navigation and the ability to connect to the school website from the app.

Those who use the app can customize it to their needs. This includes choosing what schools they want to follow. Parents can email or call teachers, look up lunch menus and pay for their child’s lunch, or check the calendar pertinent to the school or schools they follow.

Cook said the app works well for students who want to check if an assignment has been graded, what their current grade is in class,

or what special event or sports game is coming up at school.

“We’ve been trying to stay attentive to things that people are looking at,” Cook said. “We do have the ability to move the buttons around. One of the changes we’ve made over the summer is move the new superintendent button higher up on the app. We wanted to make sure that that was one of the first choices that people could access through the app.”

Users viewing the app prior to school starting Sept. 2 will have access to back-to-school information on the home screen, including school supply lists, where backpack drives are located, the school calendar and the student handbook.

If you’re someone looking for an education job, the app works well as a portal to the jobs board on the Federal Way Public Schools website.

Grandparents, care providers and other extended family can benefit from the app.

Anyone with access to a smart phone, iPad, Kindle or other portable device can now download a free Federal Way Public Schools app. Contributed photo “Email and phone notifications are tied to our student records system, but through the app, we can reach out to child care providers, grandparents and other important family members,” Cook said.

“Kids come from families with a great network of support. After school, they may be at a neighbor’s house or with another family member. It’s important to broaden that network

with the app.”

Since fall of 2014 there have been a little more than 3,900 downloads of the app. The number of downloads have been highest among high schools in the district. Federal Way Public Schools got the word out more this summer to increase those numbers.

One outreach was the district’s booth at the Federal Way Farmers’ Market

on Saturdays.

“This is a priority this year that we want to get the word out that it’s free,” Cook said. “(The app) fits with busy family lifestyles.

Now that we have had the time to learn how to best use the tool to gauge the kind of messaging parents want to see and how those are different from more traditional messaging, the app will continue to be a more powerful tool.”

It’s that time of year!

Get all the information you need to know about the new school year on the district website or on the FWPS App. Just go to the Apple App or Google Play story and search for “Federal Way.” Once you’ve downloaded the app, everything you need to know is right in your hand.

Mother charged with making child porn

BY TERRENCE HILL thill@soundpublishing.com

A

Federal Way woman was charged on Tuesday with sexually exploiting minors after she allegedly shared images of her children online with men.

Judith Christine Everett, 39, is accused of producing sexually explicit photos of her daughter, age 13, and her son, 9, in an effort to “troll for men online,” according to court documents.

Federal Way police received a Child Protective Services referral on July 31 that a man in Illinois had received photos from Everett while sexting with her.

FBI investigators interviewed the children who revealed that Everett took pictures of them. She turned herself in voluntarily.

Everett stated she contacted several men through Facebook and sexted with them. Some of the men asked if she had children

[ POLICE from page 10] Man robbed by acquaintance: At 6:30 p.m. on Aug. 5 in the 2600 block of S. 272nd St., police responded to a robbery report. The victim called and stated that a male he knows stole $1,600. As the suspect and an unidentified male driver fled the area in a black SUV, the driver displayed a handgun in the air. The victim stopped chasing the vehicle on foot and observed the car get onto northbound Interstate 5. The victim denied it was a “drug rip.” He said the money was for a 2000 Chevy Impala.

Thieves steal potted plants: At 9:52 p.m. on Aug. 5 in the 29400 block of 21st Place, police responded to a theft report. Unknown suspect(s) stole potted plants that a woman keeps on the stairwell leading to her apartment. There are no leads. The theft occurred while she was away from her apartment.

Business robbed for third time: At 5:41 a.m. on Aug. 4 in the 32600 block of Pacific Highway S., the garbage man for the location called 911 to report damage to a business’s front door glass. Upon arrival, an unknown suspect smashed out the front door glass and stole approximately $7,000 worth of automotive speakers. It was the third burglary of this location since May. Child beaten with stick: At 12:30 p.m. on Aug. 4 at an unknown location, a man called to report the assault/child abuse of his 10-yearold son by the mother’s boyfriend. He stated that his son returned home the previous night from visiting his mother at her Federal Way home and was informed that the son was beaten/spanked with a

and wanted photos of them.

She also chatted with men online about sexually abusing her son and encouraged the men to do the same.

Photos of both children were sent to multiple men “in an effort to keep these potential suitor(s) interested,” according to court documents.

At the time of her arrest, Everett was still in possession of the photos on her phone. She was jailed on $50,000 bail.

bamboo stick, which left welts, redness and bruising upon the child’s buttocks and leg(s). He responded to police and submitted a written statement, photographs of injuries and other details related to the incident.

Lawnmower left on property: At 2:06 p.m. on Aug. 4 in the 28600 block of 16th Ave. S., a man found that someone dumped a lawn mower in his yard over the weekend. It did not belong to his neighbors.

He did not want it and there was no way to determine if it was stolen.

It was booked into evidence as found property.

Woman throws tantrum over cigar: At 8:55 p.m. on Aug. 4 in the 29600 block of Pacific Highway S., a man reported that a woman got mad when he refused to accept her $100 bill for payment for a $0.99 Swisher Sweet cigar. The suspect intentionally knocked over a rack of cookies and threw some at him.

Another woman said she was trying to push her wheelchair through the door as the suspect was leaving and the suspect slammed the door and hit her left heel. The woman said this opened up an old psoriasis scar, but police saw no blood or injury and she declined medical aid.

assaulting his ex-girlfriend. Around 10 a.m. the previous day, the man became angry after his girlfriend ended their relationship. He immediately put his hand around her throat, causing her to fall to the ground.

He tightened his grip and put his other hand over her nose and mouth.

The victim stated she may have lost consciousness.

She began to kick her door to make noise and he released her. She ran out of the house. The suspect’s mother picked him up from the victim’s house. The victim did not report him at that time. He began to text her telling her to pick him up, which she refused. The suspect showed up at her house and attempted to open the windows. The victim called 911. He left but returned to try to get inside once more prior to police arrival. He left again before police showed up.

The victim said that her throat was still sore to touch 18 hours after the original strangling incident. The victim stated that he placed a tracking device on her phone and told her he was having her house watched and would shoot any other male she brought to the residence. Police received an anonymous tip that a man was hiding under a vehicle nearby. When police found him, he shouted that he didn’t do anything.

He was transported to SCORE jail.

Juveniles were seen running from the area, but nobody was seen actually lighting fireworks. The fire was extinguished and those responsible are unknown.

www.federalwaymirror.com [ ROEGNER from page 4] tionary, but more thoughtful. Electing Galland would have been a major message of anger by the voters as he has been raising issues about the fire district for years. But Galland’s strident approach might have marginalized him and hindered his effectiveness if he were elected. The vote also says the voters do want some changes. With their fire levy on the same ballot as the race between Fuller and Flygare in November, it might be a good time for the fire district to show their listening skills and make some policy changes now to demonstrate they got the message. That would support the chief and his staff who have been reaching out to get public comment on the levy. You can’t get any better feedback than election results. Waiting until election day might be too late.

The other big surprise was that Mark Greene beat Anthony Murrietta for the second position and will face incumbent Lydia Assefa-Dawson for a seat on the City Council. Assefa-Dawson was expected to be the leading vote-getter even though her campaign was not an aggressive one. But it did look like Murrietta would take the second position. Greene is not well known and has not been involved in city or community affairs. His primary contact with residents appears to be through his blog. As recently as 2013, he ran for the City Council in Newcastle, which is near Bellevue. He didn’t campaign much and had minimal mailings. His second place finish is such a surprise it may carry mixed messages from voters. Greene’s only publicity was the flare-up he caused with Mayor Jim Ferrell at the candidate debate. Greene alleged that Ferrell’s former campaign manager approached him about running for the council against Assefa-Dawson rather than run for the state Legislature as he had planned. The mayor and his former advisor denied the allegation, but Ferrell’s outburst was so strong it overwhelmed the candidate debate as the lead story. Some political activists have suggested that Greene may have benefited from the exchange and has been seen as a sympathetic victim. Greene was also critical of city spending and would not have supported the Performing Arts and Events Center as Assefa-Dawson did. He may have tapped into the current vein of discourse regarding the city expenditures on the events center and the downtown park.

In other races, appointed Democratic incumbent state legislator Carol Gregory and Republican challenger Teri Hickel are locked in a close race, with Hickel leading out of the primary. That race will remain close and could be decided by how much the marijuana advisory vote impacts turnout. In the race for elections director, Julie Wise demonstrated surprising strength capturing 63 percent of the vote and will face Democratic state legislator Zach Hudgins in the general election. Wise holds the deputy director job but has never run for office before. The real fun is starting now.

[ JOHNSON from page 4]

I want to live in a community that takes a holistic view of this issue — a community that provides high-quality, comprehensive and inclusive sexuality education. I want the kind of education that educates throughout the lifespan about families and bodies and choices and gender and communication and attraction and pit falls and support systems. I want medically accurate education, not scare tactics and attempts to gross kids out about sex. I want all of our children to live in a place where people are valued and treated with dignity and respect.

Frankly, we’re not there yet, Federal Way. We can pay for health care for millions of unintended pregnancies — or we can advocate for public funding for low income

women who fall through the cracks. We can help them receive free, effective longacting birth control. Women who have access to birth control are better able to finish their education, support themselves financially and get and keep employment.

Where will your voice be this election season?

Local earns Whitworth degree

St. Francis staff speak with kids about nutrition

FROM STAFF REPORTS

FROM STAFF REPORTS

Joshua Adrian of Federal Way has been awarded a bachelor of arts degree in theology from Whitworth University.

Located in Spokane, Whitworth is a private liberal arts university affiliated with the Presbyterian church.

The university offers 60 undergraduate and graduate degree programs.

Staff from St. Francis Hospital attended the Garden Summer at Camelot Elementary to talk about “Eating from the Rainbow” on July 15.

Jessica Bean, director of food and nutrition services at St. Francis talked to the children about why fruits and vegetables are really good for you and how eating the right food

can help your eyes, heart and muscles stay healthy.

Children participating in the camp spend part of each day in the garden — planting, weeding and harvesting food to better understand where food comes from and how they can enjoy it on a regular basis.

Following Jessica’s presentation, St. Francis provide a healthy lunch that included a spinach wrap with vegetables, turkey and cheese, rainbow carrots and a medley of dried fruit.

Full closure of SR-99 Aug. 14-17 FROM STAFF REPORTS

Drivers who use Pacific Highway South (State Route 99) in Federal Way will need to use alternate routes Aug. 14-17 when a new culvert is placed under the highway.

Contractor crews working for the Washington State Department of Transportation will close both directions of SR-99 from Southwest 356th Street to South 373rd Street.

Both directions of the highway will close at 9 p.m.

Friday, Aug. 14. One lane in each direction may close at 7 p.m. The highway will reopen at 5 a.m. Monday, Aug. 17.

Local access to driveways inside the closure will be available, but no through-traffic allowed.

After the highway is closed, crews will remove about 100 feet of roadway to install the new 10-by-20 foot culvert for West Fork Hylebos Creek.

Drivers will follow a six-mile detour to Interstate 5 during the closure, which will add about 10 minutes to their travel time.

The new culvert will allow several types of fish, including Chinook, coho and chum salmon to more easily navigate up and down West Fork Hylebos Creek.

Workers are also rebuilding the streambed to improve fish habitat. The existing stream is too fast and water is rushing over large drops, making it nearly impassable for fish.

“To enhance habitat and improve the fish population, we need to slow the flow of water by realigning the stream, adding curves and woody debris,” said Department of Transportation project engineer Mike Askarian.

When the $2.7 million project is completed this fall, fish will be able to access several additional miles of the creek and eventually make their way into the West Hylebos Wetland Park to the north.

A 6-by-6 foot box culvert carries West Fork Hylebos Creek under SR-99 near Federal Way. The culvert is too small for fish passage. Courtesy of WSDOT The existing culvert was installed in 1925 and measures only 6-by-6 feet. After the new culvert is installed, the old one will be filled, capped and left in place.

Highline College recognized as top college to work for FROM STAFF REPORTS

Highline College is one of the nation’s best colleges to work for, according to a new survey by The Chronicle of Higher Education, the top national and international news source for colleges and universities.

Highline College is among

86 institutions honored by The Chronicle for 2015 and is one of only three colleges in Washington state recognized this year. Highline is also the only two-year school in the Pacific Northwest to be honored, and one of only four schools nationwide to be recognized in the diversity category.

“We are honored that the college’s success in embracing diversity, its faculty’s asset-based and innovative learning environment, and its leadership by our executive staff are worthy of

national recognition,” said Jack Bermingham, president of Highline. “Highline College’s collegiality reflects a special spirit among faculty and staff who together strive to support our students and communities every day.”

As a “Great College to Work For,” Highline was nationally recognized in these three categories: • Confidence in Senior Leadership: Leaders have the knowledge, skills and experience necessary for the success of the college.

• Diversity: The college

makes a concerted effort to create a welcoming and fair environment for all employees.

• Teaching Environment: Faculty members say the institution recognizes innovative and high-quality teaching.

The survey results are based on a two-part assessment process: an institutional audit that captured demographics and workplace policies from each institution, and an anonymous survey administered to faculty, administrators and staff.
