City to hold meeting at KPC concerning bus transit on corridor

Sound Transit has easement rights, could put light rail on Cross Kirkland Corridor

BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com

A

t a planned open house Nov. 19, the city of Kirkland hopes to present their vision for future transportation along the Cross Kirkland Corridor (CKC) as part of Sound Transit upcoming projects.

Right now, Sound Transit is preparing a draft list of ST3 projects that, when approved in 2016, will be sent to the voters for consideration on a ballot measure. While light rail is being considered, city officials have been fighting to get their plan for a bus rapid transit (BRT) on the project list, which they

believe would be more flexible to change as well as more appropriate for the community. The meeting will be held from 6:309:00 p.m. at the Kirkland Performance Center, located at 350 Kirkland Avenue.

Staff will be available to

answer questions about high capacity transit from 6:30-7:30 p.m.

For the city, the public meeting is an opportunity to not only solicit feedback but also get residents up to speed on the situation and how their plans rely

on getting Sound Transit to embrace their transit vision. As with the rest of the Eastside Rail Corridor, Sound Transit has easement rights that supersedes Kirkland’s ownership of the CKC, according to Public Works Directory Kathy Brown.

During a presentation council’s Nov. 4 meeting, Brown described BRT as one of several solutions

the city is using to address traffic congestion due to population growth that is expected to only increase in the next two decades, particularly in areas like Totem Lake that are designated as urban centers.

According to Brown, Totem Lake is projected to have 54,266 employees and 12,241 housing units by 2035. [ more CORRIDOR page 7 ]

Police save man after he attacks others with pitchfork

BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com

A 20-year-old naked man arrested Monday by Kirkland Police for attacking people with a pitchfork nearly bled to death after jumping out of the closed bedroom window of a home.

The man, who was eventually transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, had initially left EvergreenHealth in the Totem Lake neighborhood at around noon.

The Kirkland Police Department (KPD) was contacted by hospital staff out of concern, followed shortly after that by at least five people in a 30 minute time frame, all reporting assaults by a man wearing scrubs with either his fists, a stick or a pitchfork stolen from a residence. None of the assault victims suffered life-threating injuries.

Due to his proximity to Robert Frost Elementary School, police notified school officials, who initiated lockdown protocol.

During the fifth attack, the suspect entered the home and struck the female resident, then crashed through a bedroom window, which left him with severe wounds.

He was later found naked by KPD, in the middle of a culde-sac on the 14300 block of 118th Avenue NE, who applied a tourniquet to his wounds while Kirkland Fire Department transported him to Harborview Medical Center.

According to KPD Spokesperson Lt. Mike Murray, they were later informed by Harborview hospital staff that if they had not applied the tourniquet the man would have bled to death.

“He was barely alive at that point,” he said.

An investigation is underway, but Murray said they are already looking at felony charges for assault and possibly burglary as well.

It is not known at this time whether the man was high or intoxicated, though Murray said they are awaiting results from a drug test.

Kirkland firefighters work to extinguish a fire early Sunday morning, just blocks from Lake Washington High School, that took the life of Kirkland resident Kenneth Hanson.

Former LWSD employee, Kirkland man dies in house fire

BY MATT PHELPS AND TJ MARTINELL Kirkland Reporter

KENNETH HANSON

Kirkland firefighters discovered a man who died in a house fire, just blocks from Lake Washington High School, early Sunday morning.

Kenneth Hanson, 62, was found in his home, two blocks from the high school where he graduated and

then worked, with the Lake Washington School District, for three decades.

“He was very selfless and extremely kind,” said Hanson’s cousin Rachel Shade.

“His family and friends meant everything to him. He took joy in the moments and the time he got to spend with family and friends. It’s hard for us but we know that we will see him again.”

A funeral for Hanson will be held at 2 p.m. today at Sunset Hills Memorial Park, located at 1215 145th Place SE in Bellevue.

Bellevue police say they have new information in disappearance of Kirkland boy

BY ALLISON DEANGELIS Reporter Newspapers

Four years after his disappearance, the Bellevue Police Department is continuing the search for Sky Metalwala, and may have new information to work with.

Sky’s father, Solomon Metalwala, has reportedly given Bellevue Police new information on his son’s disappearance, police said.

“I wouldn’t call it ‘leads’ so much as it is new information that he feels is relevant to the investigation,” said Bellevue Police Department spokesperson Seth Tyler. He would not elaborate on what the information entailed due to the ongoing investigation.

On Nov. 6, 2011, 2-yearold Sky Metalwala was reported missing in Bellevue by his mother, Julia Biryukova. She initially told police her car ran out of gas that morning, as she was attempting to take the boy to the hospital. She left the car at the 2400 block of 112th Avenue Northeast with Sky still in the car. When she returned to the car approximately an hour later, he was gone.

To date, investigators with

Above, Kirkland father Solomon Metawala, left, meets with new Bellevue Police Chief Stephen Mylett.

Above right, Sky Metawala when he went missing, left, and a computer generated look at what Sky might look like today. REPORTER FILE PHOTO the FBI, Bellevue Police Department, and Redmond Police Department have pursued over 2,500 tips, spent over 14,000 hours, and over $2 million during the investigation. However, Sky remains missing.

The department previ-

ously said in 2013 that they had exhausted all leads, but remained hopeful they would find Metalwala. But, on the fourth anniversary of the disappearance, Bellevue Police have revealed they have new information from Sky’s father that they will be

investigating and have issued a renewed plea to speak to Biryukova.

Since shortly after her son’s disappearance, Biryukova has refused to participate in the police investigation, despite the fact that police found several holes in Biryu-

kova’s account of the disappearance and have continually asked for her assistance.

Notably, the police said they were able to determine that Biryukova’s silver Acura Integra — which she said ran out of gas and necessitated her leaving the vehicle with Sky in it — had enough fuel to drive for a considerable amount of time.

Biryukova and Solomon Metalwala divorced in March 2012. Solomon Metawala was given custody of the boy’s sister, and Biryukova was allowed no visitation rights. The pair were going through the divorce and a custody battle before the boy disappeared.

Bellevue Police Chief Steve Mylett, who joined the

department six months ago, addressed the case shortly after his hiring and issued a statement Nov. 5 asking Biryukova to contact the police.

“I am convinced you hold the key to finding Sky. The employees of the Bellevue Police Department will not stop searching for Sky, but I cannot emphasize enough the role you play in successfully locating your little boy,” Mylett said in the statement.

Anyone with information regarding this case is urged to contact the Bellevue Police Department by sending an email to pdtipline@ bellevuewa.gov or calling 425-577-5656.

GUEST EDITORIAL

It’s never too late to thank a veteran

A

t the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918, the guns finally fell silent across France. Peace broke out that day, and soon ‘Johnny came marching home’ back to the US. For many years, Nov. 11 was recognized as Armistice Day, a day we gave recognition and thanks to our World War I veterans.

A second World War, a U.N. ‘Police Action’ in Korea, and 35 years later, the Nov. 11 observance was renamed as Veterans Day. Since then, we as a grateful nation give thanks and honor to every veteran that served at home or abroad, be it in France, the Pacific, the cold hills of Korea or a military base stateside.

On Nov. 11, we also gave thanks to the veterans who fought in the sand and deserts of Kuwait, Afghanistan and Iraq. On every other day, I hope we give thanks to the active uniformed servicemen and women who are serving in harm’s way. No matter how complex the mission, how difficult the task or terrain, our uniformed service members and military families have continually answered our nation’s call.

But we as a nation have let a group of veterans down. From the early 1950s to the mid 1960s, we were fighting a very real Cold War. Back then, the Domino Theory was fact. From the White House and Pentagon down to our family dinner tables, it shaped our foreign policy and our national opinion. All of America felt that we were the Bulwark of Freedom, and that the U.S. must take a stand against Communism.

And in 1965 we did – in Vietnam. Fifty years after the beginning and 40 years after the ending of that war, many Americans fail to go beyond

OPINION

lingering disagreement of the policies that led to that war and the complex issues that escalated and ended it. Back then, many of us never really properly thanked and welcomed home the thousands of men and women who returned home from answering our nation’s call to put their boots on the ground and their lives on the line in the humid jungles, rivers and fire bases of that divided country.

Today, we all have family members, friends or acquaintances who served in Vietnam. It is never too late for us to undo the disservice done to many veterans who returned home and were disdained or ignored 40 years ago. Now is the time to thank a Vietnam veteran for their service. Now is the time to listen to their story.

Sound Publishing recognizes and thanks all our uniformed service members, veterans and military families. During the 50th and 40th an-

niversaries of the Vietnam war, we give special recognition, thanks and honor to our Vietnam veterans and their families.

The Be Neighborly Kirkland Facebook Group is filled with movers, shakers and action-oriented people - the people who shape this community and the city of Kirkland. Thank you to all of you who take action.

We had a plea to raise funds to outfit the Cow and Coyote statue [in downtown Kirkland] with a new Seahawks outfit since last one was stolen.

Within just three hours we had raised the money needed to purchase not just one but two new uniforms. We decided the Sounders were so awesome they better have one too. In three hours this community showed us what kind of people they are they are the dreamers and the doers. Be Neighborly Kirkland I adore you.

Kirkland Nourishing Network accepting donations for families in need Kirkland Nourishing Network is trying to bring to light some gaps in food security, right here in our community. We’ve made it pretty simple for you to be part of the solution to fill gaps identified by teachers and school counselors. If you could volunteer to shop for a box of

food (menu provided) and drop off the box at a central site on Tuesday, Nov. 24, that evening the box will be in the home of a family that really needs it. Each box is under $50 with a standard menu of items.

Kirkland has stepped up to fill the need every school break for the past four years. The key thing you need to realize is that you can make a real difference in the lives of Kirkland neighbors. We are expanding this year to all Kirkland elementary schools with identified need. That means we need donors for over 200 boxes of food – helping over 150 families! Some neighbors struggle more than we appreciate; but, together, we can help to fill the need.

Everything you need to know is on the signup links at http://www.nourishingnetworks.net/ kirkland/. Just select a convenient drop-off location (north or south). Once on the sign-up page, click on a “Sign Up” box (or two) and then click on “Submit and Sign Up.” The grocery list link is above the sign-up list.

You don’t have to withhold your commitment if you think things might possibly change. The commitment is revocable; if something unanticipated arises, then you can offer the box you signed up for to someone else. Just let us know as far ahead of time as possible. If you want to donate but will be away, so you can’t shop for fresh food, let me know (daveasher@comcast. net), and I will work to find volunteers with the Eastside Timebank or other local volunteers to do the shopping and drop-off.

A great thank you to the Kiwanis Club of Kirkland for providing funds, this year, to buy protein to be added to the boxes.

Thank to all of you for considering to help your neighbors in need.

The sophomoric behavior of the Kirkland Reporter I am writing a general comment to the community of Kirkland in defense of Bob Sternoff; a long-standing public servant and private community activist. Over the past three years, I have witnessed and remained silent of your biased, public and false character assassinations of this fine citizen.

In spite of your outright attacks, Bob has continued to serve Kirkland and its residents tirelessly over the span of these last three years since leaving the City Council. He has remained an experienced, dedicated, intelligent, connected to the citizens and businesses, hard-working person who cares and is determined to be a part of “walking the walk in taking Kirkland to the next level.

During the span of these years, Bob worked toward a more seamless integration of the annexation area, to analyze and ameliorate the effects of the, now current, bridge and 405 tolls, and, to be a proactive supporter of managed growth in downtown and Totem Lake. There are very few qualities [ more LETTERS page 5 ]

November 13, 2015 [5]

www.kirklandreporter.com [ LETERS from page 4]

that can substitute for this kind of ground-level, gut-level dedication and experience. More recently, he spearheaded the grass root efforts to inform the citizens of Kirkland as to the significant “hidden” costs associated with Prop. 1, which informed the public, and they in turn, overwhelmingly defeated it by a wide margin. Yet, his blog did not gloat at its defeat, but in fact, encouraged the City Council to return to the table in efforts to build the ARC [Aquatics, Recreation and Community center] in a manner conducive to the fiscal responsibility of all tax-paying citizens.

The tactics of Kirkland Reporter to smear Bob Sternoff ’s good name once again is beneath us. Kirkland is better than this. You should not kick someone when you “think” you have the scoop and they “appear” vulnerable.

But in fact, exhibit tolerant, unbiased and fair journalistic discovery before telling your “story.” I, and many others, know the true story. You really haven’t a clue. The final chapter has not been written.

Be very careful what you write in the name of public disclosure on a man who “privately” works very hard and quietly for this community. Our mother’s taught us better than this. It would be justice indeed if more citizens stood up against your rag in repudiation of these tactics.

Jim Feek, Kirkland

The recent closure of 98th in Kirkland The recent closure of 98th in Kirkland was an inconvenient closure for many people, regardless of freeway access and their “timing.” And consider that freeway access still can be out of the way for many people.

Disregarding this, an explanation of what was done would be appreciated. After discussing this with several people we all had the same thoughts. Slurry is possible but that wouldn’t require complete closure for such a long period of time. Perhaps lights which would be great considering how dark it can get. Botts? Wonderful! It sure needs it.

Regardless, all these didn’t require complete closure for, which changed midstream, nine hours a day for 10 days. And nothing was done as far as we can know.

Where was the money spent?

[This was a] very inept disclosure of intent.

City response to closure of 98th Avenue Northeast Hello Miss Jacobs and all of the Kirkland residents who, in late October, encountered the night-time roadclosure on 98th Avenue Northeast at the Forbes Creek Bridge near Juanita Beach Park.

Thank you, first of all, for your patience while our contractor retrofitted the Forbes Creek Bridge to withstand earthquakes. As you might have noticed, our contractor was able to complete most of the work without affecting daytime traffic. The project began in July and continued through October.

However, during one critical week of the project, the contractor did have to close 98th Avenue Northeast at the bridge between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. to automotive traffic and to detour that traffic through Northeast 116th Street and Forbes Creek Drive.

LWSD officials confirmed that Hanson worked for the district for 31 years.

“Ken Hanson was a dedicated Lake Washington School District employee for many years,” said LWSD spokesperson Kathryn Reith.

www.kirklandreporter.com “He joined the district in 1980 as a laborer in the district’s maintenance department. He held that position for four years. In 1984 he joined the district’s grounds crew where he spent the last 31 years taking great care of our many schools and sites.

Multiple units from the Kirkland Fire Department (KFD) responded to the house fire at approximately 1 a.m. in the 7300 block of 120th Avenue NE. Fire attack was conducted from three directions toward the structure. At the time of arrival, it was not known if the home was occupied and the structure was deemed unsafe to conduct a search.

However, from the exte-

rior, fire crews observed a deceased person, Hanson, through the bedroom window.

The official cause of death, according to the King County Medical Examiner, is “inhalation of toxic products of combustion and thermal burns,” and the examiner has ruled the death an accident.

Emergency dispatch calls reported flames on the front porch, door and roof at the house. Upon arrival, KFD noted the approximately 1,500 square foot structure was 75 percent involved.

The cause of the fire is still officially under investigation

by Kirkland Fire Investigators but the structure has been deemed a complete loss.

Although light rail would be feasible as well and improve transportation, Brown said their rigidity might prove to be troublesome as the region continues to grow.

“Trains are cool and people play with electric trains and people think that trains are the best of all possible high capacity transit options, but really when you dive into it and look at your various options trains are not very flexible,” she said. “They have to run on the tracks.

So as needs change you can’t change.”

Instead, she said, electric buses would have less of an impact on the corridor while using exclusive lanes, citing BRT examples such as Cambridge, and despite the term “rapid transit,” she said the buses wouldn’t be excessively large in size or going abnormally fast.

“There are ways to do bus rapid transit service on the CKC that really fits in with our community,” she said. “There are specialty vehicles that can be used in BRT that quite frankly look a lot like trains.”

Alair branches out to the Eastside through Kirkland

BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com

Kirkland’s booming housing market has attracted a Canadian-based construction management company seeking to branch out into the

Eastside and other parts of the state.

Founded in 2006, Alair uses a new approach in handling custom construction projects, both residential and commercial, between contractors and customers. Through the use of a Client Control software, Alair helps clients keep projects within budget and on schedule, two of the biggest problems customers handle, according to Chief Communications Officer Adam McCaa. The software also enables them to monitor the project’s progress directly from the construction site. The model also provides them with direct control over the project so that every change or decision requires their approval before moving.

“They want transparency and certain things

really only Alair offers,” McCaa said. “If you look at a market like that… people are wanting to get as much out of their investment as possible.

Our model just fits. We’re different from anyone in the state.”

The appeal, he said, is strong among custom home builders, who are typically much more interested in controlling the different aspects of the project and prefer a proactive role rather than passive.

“Now we know what every single person is charging, what every single purchase costs,” he said. “We’re giving you the price that we’re getting it for. It appeals to the better buyers, the people who are really conscious of their investment. hey want to want to build a custom home,

in Kirkland it’s almost inevitable they’re gone up and down with the times.

People might assume because the economy’s rising, property values are going up. What happens when there’s so much demand? Business failures, because they take on too much work and it’s hard to deliver on expectations.”

One benefit for contractors working with Alair, he said, is that it will benefit them when seeking tradesmen, such as electricians, bricklayers, and plumbers, to complete specific tasks on a project.

“They would want to work with the most reputable builders possible,” he said. “When they do a good job, their reputation still is on the line for the contractor who hires them for the project.

the contractor with a more streamlined process and transparency and comes in on time and on budget.”

Hopewell said they will also help contractors acclimate themselves to the Alair model.

“Because our processes are quite different from standard construction, some of our processes and procedures are different for those with 30 years of experience,” he said.

“We have a different mindset, a different way of thinking.”

Meanwhile, the local housing market continues to grow, according to Evergreen Home Loans Vice President Don Zender, who said they have also seen a rise in loans for custom homes.

“Starting in 2016 it’s going to be another busy year,” he said. “Kirkland is still considered one of the premier places to be. It’s not slowing down. We may not go at such a crazy pace, but it’s definitely not slowing down.”

Zender added that there are numerous advantages for both customers as well as the community where the home is built. For the community,

a custom home brings the value up, as it tends to be an upgrade compared to the adjacent houses.

Like McCaa and Hopewell, Zender said the customers are usually more knowledgeable and are attracted to the level of control it offers.

“You’re going to put the footprint of the home exactly as you want,” he said. “You get to pick everything out, starting from the foundations to the finishing trim on the doors. You get to put what you want where you want, and then you’re going to get the opportunity to really control the costs.”

He added that another benefit of custom home building is that the customer gets to choose who will actually build the home to ensure it is built properly.

In order to get a loan for a custom home, Zender said, the client has to have the drawings or the blueprints of the home, which they can either purchase or modify themselves. The builder must also be approved by the bank.

However, despite Kirkland’s housing boom, McCaa said it is certainly beneficial,

but not the underlying reason for their decision to open an office in the city, as they are opening 25-30 other offices in other parts of the state.

“Obviously I think if it’s from a timing perspective, would we prefer to be in Kirkland when it’s going, but we’re coming there if it’s going down,” he said. “We feel like now our model is going to work in every market. We’ve proven this in the smallest towns to the biggest cities in the world.”

In fact, during the housing crash in 2007-2008, Hopewell said the company still managed to grow.

“We know the model is working,” he said. “There were still people retiring.

There were still people building homes. When we sit down with a client, and we explain standard construction and what we do, 75 percent of the time they move on with us. That percentage is staggering. It’s only because the communication and the processes are there. They want to be involved in the build.”

Taxable retail sales up 9.4 percent The state’s taxable retail sales made in the second quarter of 2015, April 1 through June 30, reached $33.9 billion, a 9.4 percent increase over the same quarter in 2014.

Figures for the retail trade industry, which is a subset of all taxable retail sales made in the state, show an 8 percent increase over the same time period last year. The retail trade comprised $15 billion of the state’s

total taxable retail sales.

These data come from reports released by the Washington State Department of Revenue each quarter. The reports compare the second quarter year-over-year to equalize any seasonal effects of consumer purchasing behavior.

Revenue categorizes the state’s taxable retail sales using the North American Industry Classification System, the same method federal statistical agencies use to classify businesses for the purpose of analyzing data related to the economy.

Second Quarter 2015 snapshot: · Sales of vehicles and auto parts jumped 11.14 percent to $3.85 billion. · Purchases in building materials and gardening stores rose 11.38 percent to $1.76 billion · General merchandise stores reported $2.62 billion in taxable sales, up 4.66 percent · Figures from accommodations, restaurants and bars statewide increased 10.64 percent to $4 billion Third quarter 2015 data should be available in late January 2016.

Tepper told the Reporter that he is “completely content” with the outcome, saying that he felt important issues were raised that will improve the board’s performance.

“It’s a completely thankless job that I would have been terrific at, but I imagine I did a good job at opening the eyes of the present school board,” he said. “I really feel like they thought they were doing a wonderful job, and the truth of the matter is that they were far from wonderful.

More than 600 officials, business leaders, celebrate 10th anniversary of Leadership Eastside

O

n Monday, more than 600 elected officials, business owners, nonprofit agency representatives and others from the greater Eastside gathered to discuss the future of the region.

The event was held at the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue and was the final event for host organization Leadership Eastside’s (LE) 10th anniversary celebration. Those in attendance included Kirkland City Council members, Mayor Amy Walen, Rep. Joan McBride, Rep. Larry Springer and newly elected King County Councilwoman Claudia Balducci, among many others.

Throughout the working lunch — as moderator and LE CEO James Whitfield dubbed it — attendees were asked to discuss and voice the issues they feel are most pressing for the Eastside and need to be addressed.

Whitfield — along with LE board chair Jeff Borgida — stressed to the audience how important their thoughts and opinions are about the Eastside’s future.

Failure of MPD puts plan for Kirkland aquatic center on hold

Kirkland Choral Society’s annual holiday concert takes place at 3 p.m. on Dec. 6 at Bastyr University Chapel in Kenmore. The Choral Society, with more than 100 members, will be joined by Philharmonia Northwest orchestra for a performance of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Magnificat, under the direction of Dr. Glenn Gregg.

“This concert has special significance for us,” Gregg said, “as KCS last performed the Bach Magnificat fourteen years ago, at our inaugural performance in Bastyr Chapel. It’s great to see how much KCS has grown and developed over the years.

We’ve become one of the leading symphonic choirs in the Seattle area.”

Last month, KCS performed - along with more than 30 other local choirs - at the Seattle Sings choral fes-

critics said the lack of specificity would create a “blank check” for the City Council, which would serve as the MPD governing body under a planned interlocal agreement. Although the MPD would have created a citizen advisory board and required they allow an advisory vote for major expenditures, critics nevertheless pointed out that the advisory vote would not have been legally binding and the MPD could only be dissolved by the board itself.

Walen said that the MPD’s flexibility was the only way for them to appropriate the funds to build the kind of center the public demanded of them.

“I was just sad that people were questioning the motives of the councilmembers who worked really hard and put a lot of thought into it,” she said. “That’s not Kirkland.”

The results have the city back at the drawing board for possible ways moving forward to fund the ARC, though some city officials say

tival at St. Mark’s Cathedral.

KCS was the largest choir at the festival, and received high praise for their performance.

The partnership between Kirkland Choral Society and Philharmonia Northwest orchestra, now in its fourth season, has been a fruitful one. “We’ve done some of the great choral-orchestral masterworks together, and we plan to do a lot more,” Gregg said.

In March, 2016, KCS will join Philharmonia Northwest for Beethoven’s beloved 9th Symphony at Benaroya Hall, and in May, the chorus

will perform the world premiere of a new work by one of the leading composers of our time, Ola Gjeilo, from Norway.

For the Dec. 6 concert, in addition to the Magnificat, the chorus will present an array of modern choral gems, including works by beloved composers Gjeilo, Chilcott, and Lauridsen, and the premiere of a new work by local composer Joy DeCoursey Porter.

“And, as always, we include a sprinkling of favorite holiday carols,” Gregg said.

“There’s something for every-

one at our holiday concerts— but get your tickets early, as this concert will likely be a sell-out.”

Individual and season tickets for Kirkland Choral Society concerts are available through Brown Paper Tickets, by email at tickets@ KirklandChoralSociety.org or by calling (425) 442-9240.

other priorities will have to take precedence for the time being.

“I think we’ve always been very responsive to the community,” Walen said. “I haven’t had a chance to talk to my colleagues yet about the results, so it’ll just be a conversation for the coming months.”

Toby Nixon, who ran unopposed in this year’s election, said for now he thinks the city should focus on getting a bond measure passed as part of the city’s renewed efforts to improve fire and EMS services in the northern neighborhoods. If they do attempt to address the ARC again, he said, one of the biggest challenges for them will be determining the precise reason why the MPD was rejected.

“It’s really hard to tell from the vote whether people were voting against the ARC as a concept,” he said, “because the point that people made that it would used by a rela-

tively small amount of people is a valid point. And so some people would say ‘I’m never going to use it so I don’t want to pay for it regardless of the funding mechanism.’ Some people said they would support the aquatics center, but they didn’t like the funding mechanism because it had the potential to raise a lot more tax money than what would be necessary for the ARC itself.”

Because of this, he said, it’s hard to know what motivated people to vote as they did.

“And that amount of uncertainty makes it hard to know what to do next,” he said.

City Manager Kurt Triplett said that the biggest disappointment for the city was how the focus was on the MPD as a taxing district rather than the benefits of the facility.

“That’s unfortunate,” he said, “because there’s some real need that won’t be met in the short term as a result

the public feedback we got was that they were supportive. When we called the question, they said no. But our work plan item was to give the public the chance to vote on an aquatic and recreation center. And we did that. The campaign worked really hard. I feel badly for them, because they worked really hard and you know just deeply held belief that this was the right thing for our city.”

“We did the best job we could putting together a package that would work for an aquatic center,” Councilmember Dave Asher said.

“The community rejected it.

I’m sorry that that happened but now we’re moving on.”

Much of the criticism aimed at the proposed MPD by detractors was also the same aspects touted by proponents, chief of which was the funding flexibility that would have allowed the district to set an appropriate tax rate based on the total costs of the ARC. However,

Kirkland voters rejected Proposition No. 1, which would have a metropolitan park district (MPD) to fund the Aquatic and Recreation Center (ARC), with nearly 65 percent voting “no.”

The proposed MPD, which garnered 5,237 votes compared to the 9,422 opposing it, was pitched to the community by the city as a flexible and viable way for funding the ARC, as many of the costs are still unknown.

Rick Whitney, who helped spearhead the opposition campaign, said that while he is elated that voters down turned the taxing district, he said he is sad that it hasn’t brought them closer to building an aquatic center.

“It was a validation, and yet I feel bad because I know the guys on the other side, they have good intentions,” he said. “They thought their cause was a worthy one, and I do feel bad for them, but we’ll work together and

come up with a way to fund a good aquatic center. This isn’t the end of the aquatic center. This is just the end of an ill-conceived funding mechanism.”

Rob Martin, who helped spearhead the Yes on Prop. 1 campaign, said he was obviously disappointed but hopes they are able to find another way to get an aquatic center funded.

“We still believe strongly in the need for these facilities, but at this point that’s pretty much all there is to say,” he said. “What the election taught is there are some things that clearly the citizens of Kirkland are not in favor of. That’s a lesson learned and we should be wise to listen to that and figure out what might be possible.”

Many councilmembers, including Mayor Amy Walen, expressed this disappointment in the proposition’s failure, as well.

Motorcyclist charged in crosswalk collision in downtown Kirkland

BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@kirklandreporter.com

T

he King County Prosecutor’s Office has charged a 20-yearold Kirkland man with vehicular assault and reckless endangerment for allegedly striking a woman and man in downtown Kirkland with his motorcycle.

Gavin D. Ogier is accused of allegedly riding his motorcycle down Lake Street South on June 10 and hitting two Bellevue residents, a 29-year-old woman and a 31-year-old man, along with two of her dogs, while they were in the crosswalk next to the Ben and Jerry’s, according to police documents.

Prosecutors are requesting bail be set at $25,000.

The Kirkland Police Department investigation into the incident included numerous statements by witnesses, one of whom stated seeing Ogier just moments before the collision allegedly riding recklessly down Lake Street and weaving in and out of traffic by passing vehicles in the oncoming lane.

One witness reported the suspect revving his engine

so loudly she had to cover her ears.

The collision allegedly occurred when a vehicle in front of Ogier stopped at the crosswalk at the intersection of Second Avenue South for the victims and their dogs.

Ogier then drove around the vehicle, going at least 40 mph in a 25 mph zone, according to several witnesses, only to drop his motorcycle when he collided into the victims and the dogs.

Prosecutors allege that Ogier then appeared to “attempt to ride off on his motorcycle” and was only stopped by witnesses who prevented him from leaving.

“He did not seem concerned with the group he had struck, but bemoaned his motorcycle,” the prosecutor’s charging documents assert.

The female victim suffered from numerous torn ligaments and head injuries, while the male victim suffered abrasions and bruising on his left leg and right hip.

One of the woman’s dogs had soft tissue damage, while the other suffered a severe spine injury.

Police interviewed Ogier,

who allegedly told them he didn’t have his driver’s license on him. They later discovered that while he had a driver’s license and the motorcycle was registered in his name, he did not have a motorcycle endorsement nor did he have liability insurance.

Following his arrest and transport to the Kirkland Justice Center, the suspect told officers that he did not want to come to a complete stop at the crosswalk because it was a hassle, the documents continue. He then insisted that it was an accident and he did not know why he was being arrested. He also inquired as to what would happen to his motorcycle.

Despite significant physical injuries, he refused medical care and declined to go the hospital because he did not have medical insurance and had no money, which he had invested entirely in his motorcycle.

During questioning by police, the suspect told them he had anxiety and takes medication for it. He also said that he had diabetes but didn’t take insulin because he didn’t “want a doctor to tell

him that there is something wrong with him” and that he can “control it myself.”

The suspect was eventually taken to EvergreenHealth hospital in Kirkland after repeatedly complaining of physical pain. During the ride there, the aid crew checked his blood-sugar level and found it to be normal. The suspect was later found to have no drug or alcohol impairment.

During a search of his property, police found $1,200 in cash in his wallet, while his motorcycle was impounded and searched.

Although police officials initially said there wasn’t sufficient evidence to book him on hit and run, the forwarded charges include hit and run for his alleged “complete disregard for human life by ignoring the victims he struck by attempting to pick

up his motorcycle numerous times and attempting to flee the scene.”

“His greatest concern was where his motorcycle, backpack and his helmet were,” one officer’s report reads.

According to the prosecutors’ charging documents, Ogier has a history of driving without liability insurance and several times has failed to appear in court for legal matters.

Kang football season comes to an end in double overtime

Providence places third at tri-district playoffs

The Lake Washington High School football team’s season came to an end in double overtime on Saturday at Mt. Tahoma High School, just one step from the state playoffs.

The Kangs scored two touchdowns during the first quarter but ultimately lost to Wilson High School, 1512 in double overtime.

Lake Washington failed to convert both extra-point attempts during the game and Wilson came back to tie the game with less than two minutes remaining in the contest.

The Rams connected on a 21-yard field goal to win the game.

No individual results were available.

The Kangs finished the regular season with a 4-2 record and in third place in 3A KingCo, behind Bellevue and Juanita. Lake Washington finishes 5-5 overall for the season.

The Providence Classical Christian School, based in Kirkland, girls volleyball team made school history on Saturday, taking third place in the tri-district playoff games at Evergreen Lutheran School in Tacoma.

The hard-fought battle in front of an exuberant crowd of fans guaranteed the Kirkland school a place at the state playoff games in Yakima this weekend.

Providence came focused and ready for action, besting tournament host team Evergreen Lutheran in a morning victory that assured them a place at the Sun Dome in Yakima for a second year in a row.

Although Providence lost its second game to Christian Faith of Federal Way, 2-3, they came back to beat Neah Bay, 3-1, in the evening. Co-captain Hailey Ferguson led the team with 21 kills and seven aces, followed by co-captain Katie

Personally I will have no problem eating at Chipotle again, and I also worry that we are going to shoot ourselves in the foot by making too big a deal of this situation.

The reason, in my opinion, that Chipotle is having more run-ins with microbes is because they have been trying to do something different. They have been trying to offer a healthier alternative, fresh foods fast. Fresh foods, meaning vegetables and less processed whole foods, are alive and unprocessed and are rich with nutritional and microbial life. With fresh eating comes the risk of encountering bacteria, some of it beneficial.

Isn’t it just a few dozen people that were infected this last time in the Washington and Oregon episode? I have compassion for their GI troubles (and risk of death, as the media has been emphasizing), of course, but let’s keep this in perspective.

Now Chipotle is going to undergo a widespread reconfiguring of their food safety systems. You know what that means?

More sanitizer. More heat treatments. More processing. Few of our kitchens would pass the rigorous standards required by commercial establishments. Nor would we want to eat like this in our homes, because we would lose many of the benefits of home cooking. I say let’s be a bit careful in our outcry, lest we should punish the organizations that are trying to provide us with healthier options.

It’s not easy to do fresh food fast. And do we really want to shut down the restaurants that are trying? I for one will be the first person back in the doors when Chipotle re-opens.

Riegel allowed patients to routinely refill their narcotic painkiller prescriptions early, and did not perform urinanalysis on patients, or record their results to see if they were taking the medications themselves, and at proper dosages.

In another case, documented in the charging statement, Riegel allegedly prescribed more than 6,700 mg of oxycodone, more than 11,750 mg of morphine, 84,000 mg of a muscle relaxer, 160 mg of hydromorphone and 450 mg of diazepam to a single patient over the course of 27 days for fibromyalgia and migraine relief.

Several of his patients were hospitalized due to life-threatening, narcoticrelated conditions during the past few years, according to the charging statement.

Additionally, the statement alleges Riegel prescribed opioids to at least one patient who admitted to him he was using the medications to manage his depression instead of pain.

In another instance, the charging statement

Following a 2013 investigation, the charging statement said Riegel agreed to stop prescrib-

ing high levels of pain medication, which the Medical Quality Assurance Commission alleges he did not.
