ARLINGTON — If not for the Grocery Outlet, Rona Garcia would be unemployed.

“The day my old job ended, I got hired here,” the Marysville woman said, as she opened shipping boxes of snacks at the former Food Pavilion location. “It’s perfect timing.”

The new discount grocery store at 123 E. Burke Ave. is making a similar difference for a lot of locals.

Greg Lich is living with his parents in Arlington and hopes to save up enough to move out on his own.

For fellow Arlington resident Roger Fitzpatrick, this is his first real job.

“Unless you count washing dishes at summer camp,” Fitzpatrick said, as he stocked the shelves with cooking ingredients.

“I don’t ever want to wash dishes again.”

ARLINGTON — Arne Lee Anderson never served in the military, but every Veterans Day he and daughter Shelby, 10, hold signs of support as they sit on the curb of Olympic Avenue.

The annual Veterans Day parade in Arlington saw plenty of former and current military members in the street and on the sidewalks this week.

Ed Molsee wore his uniform shirt from his days as an Army Airborne helicopter pilot from 1967-70, during which he was awarded two bronze stars, while former corpsman “Doc” Ronald Ateman sported a few of his pins from his 22 years.

“I loved it,” said Ateman, who retired in 2000. “The travel and education were invaluable. It left me with a balance of good and bad memories, but definitely good feelings. If you’re going into the service, you should be hungry to learn, because it will save your

life.”

After the local chapters of the American Legion, along with its Sons and Auxiliary, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars had marched down Arlington’s main street, the Post 76 Legion Lounge opened up to veterans and civilians alike for lunch.

Fellow sailors Jeff Isom and Chris Nelson reminisced about their respective wars. Isom was a hull technician from 1989-99 during the first Persian Gulf war, while Nelson served as a signalman from 196973, during Vietnam. They agreed that the camaraderie

The Simpsons rans the Gleneagle Golf Course from 2011-13, and were training with Grocery Outlet to own their own store when the Food Pavilion closed a year ago. “We saw it as fate,” Melonique said. “When this spot opened up, we fought for it.”

Mike added: “We not only know the Arlington community, we are the Arlington community.”

The Arlington Grocery Outlet’s ribbon-cutting is set for 10 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 19, with a grand opening slated from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 21, the latter of which will offer gift cards, free groceries and frozen turkey giveaways.

Mike touted the Grocery Outlet’s selection of produce, dairy, eggs, bread and name-brand products, available at discounts of up to 70 percent.

“Even if you don’t save that much, we’ll still fight to deliver the lowest price of anyone,” Mike said. “That’s

why we’re hoping to become shoppers’ first choice. If you can’t find it here, then go to a conventional store, but we should be able to save you as much as you spend.”

At the same time, Melonique likened the store’s ever-changing selection of goods and prices to a “treasure hunt” for attentive shoppers.

“A conventional store will have the same stuff out for the same prices, just about every week,” Melonique said. “We’ll have some goods discounted heavily one week that might not be available the next week, so when you see it, you’ll know you want to buy more of it, since you won’t see it again at that price for a while.”

Melonique praised Arlington shoppers for adopting more of a “Buy Local” mindset in recent years. “Mike and I are in charge of how the store runs, so if our customers ask for certain things, we can provide them,” Melonique said.

Mike added: “We’re on site every day, so you can interact with us face to face.

3 generations, same birthday

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – Priscilla Cox never complained about having to share her birthday with her son, Gabriel.

But now she also has to share it with her grandson, Cameron, too.

“I’m doubly blessed,” she said Nov. 10.

Cameron was born Friday, Nov. 6, at the Providence women’s center in Everett. He wasn’t expected to be born on his dad’s and grandma’s birthday. His due date was Nov. 9. But Priscilla said he’d been wanting to be born for weeks. His mom, Jennifer, had been going into premature labor since the 34-week mark.

“But the doctors didn’t want him to come that early,” Priscilla said, so they put Jennifer on bed rest for a few days. She added that Jennifer continued to have contractions and became frustrated saying: “I give up.

He’ll never come.”

Well, he did. Priscilla and Gabriel were celebrat-

Gabe, Priscilla and Cameron. ing their birthdays with a breakfast at I-Hop when Jennifer’s water broke. She went into labor around 11 a.m., and about 11:25 p.m. grandpa Richard Cox started thinking it wasn’t going to happen.

A little while later his wife came out of the birthing room with a big smile on her face. It was 11:50 p.m., still Nov. 6.

“Oh, my gosh it was exciting,” Priscilla said.

Cox agreed: “It’s pretty cool. It’s a rare happening.”

Odds are 1 in 300,000, he said.

Cox said they didn’t even think Gabriel would be born on the same date because his due date was much earlier.

“It was prolonged and prolonged, and it went on and on and on. It was quite a long wait,” Cox said.

Then baby-Cameron was distressed so they had to helicopter in a specialist for an emergency operation.

Gabriel was born at 4:30 a.m. Nov. 6.

Priscilla said she never minded sharing her birthday with her son.

“I never felt pushed aside,” she said, adding she and her husband would always celebrate her birthday separately and make Gabriel’s birthday special.

“We had huge parties,” she said, adding when he got older he wanted them to open gifts together.

“Now we can have big parties for our grandson,” Priscilla said. “I don’t know how we could ask for anything more.”

She tries to see Cameron every day.

face,” said Isom, who was nonetheless met with hostility in Panama, after the 1990 ouster of Manuel Noriega, and in Bahrain, in the wake of America’s 1991 bombing of Iraq. “My politics weren’t always the same as my family’s. My parents didn’t always agree with what I was doing.”

who serve at sea by saying, “Water can be thicker than blood. When we left port, people were throwing paint-filled balloons at us. I still had to go because I was drafted. I had no choice.”

Although they considered themselves fortunate to serve on ship rather than pounding the ground, the two sailors agreed that cruises carry their own sacrifices and haunting experiences.

“I was onboard the carrier, but I saw when our planes would come back all shot up,” Nelson said.

“Sometimes, they didn’t come back at all. We were all gone from our families.”

Indeed, Isom eventually retired because he couldn’t bear to say goodbye to his family for another deployment.

“After ten years, I had two kids, so I had to think about them when I chose whether to put myself in harm’s way,” Isom said. “But I learned to respect all different races and peoples in the Navy.

They took me, a small-town country boy, and threw me into a mix with all these other folks, and made us blend.”

At age 72 next month, Air Force veteran Arthur Otto likewise spoke of his love and respect for all the branches of service.

Otto requested simply that he receive the same respect he affords others.

“I had to handle communications and data processing between bases and ships,” said Otto, who served from 1964-68. “We had aisles of computers and printers, and I had to keep up with all those messages, but I did it with stamina and by being upbeat. I’ve always maintained a smile, so I hope to get smiles back from others.”

Even though the measure passed 60 percent to 40 percent, Muller said he knows it will be tough to rid the city of fireworks because of its proximity to Boom City.

Now, secondary crimes also are recorded, such as if it included assault and eluding police.

MARYSVILLE – Marysville Historical Society President Ken Cage asked the City Council for $50,000 Nov. 9 to help finish funding for the new museum near Jennings Park.

“That would help close out the project,” he said.

Cage added that the museum will double as a town hall.

“It will be a key gathering place in the city,” he said.

The historical society wants to open the new facility March 19, 2016, on the 125th anniversary of the city.

Cage said the city should want to contribute to this community project that will not only bond and strengthen the community, but also bring visitors to town who would spend money, helping local businesses.

“We’d like the city to be proudly on our donor wall,” he said.

Cage spoke during the public comment period, so no action was taken, but Mayor Jon Nehring hinted the issue would be discussed.

Also during public comments, insurance businessman Scott Davis complained about transients and garbage they leave behind in the area of 80th and State. He said some homeless sleep in the covered bus stop there, and have left items such as needles around. Davis said he has some employees who are concerned about their safety.

Chief Rick Smith said police will check that out.

The chief also said crime is down overall 23 per-

veteran who dedicates time giving back to the community. Kinder Smoots, executive director of Eagle Wings disability Ministries in Marysville, praised Joiner’s dedication to the nonprofit. She said Joiner volunteers several hours per week at Eagle Wings where she manages specialneeds volunteers, oversees and manages mass mailings, and even volunteers at special events. She’s known for dressing up as a clown and has celebrated more than 120 birthdays for adults with special needs.

Also, Joiner dons her clown regalia for the Shriners parade and volunteers at the Shriners Halloween event to raise funds for Shriners Hospitals; bakes cookies each year to help the Everett music civic center raise scholarship funds; makes crafts and baked goods to benefit the Order of the Eastern Star; and knits hats and scarves for Christmas as part of a knitting group at Mountain View Presbyterian church.

The city also announced its Pride of Marysville awards. In its fourth year, the awards celebrate residents and business owners who show special pride in their properties: •Best residential location: Chuck and Audrey Pilon, 6527 Armar Road •Best business (curb appeal): Vinaccio Coffee/ Allen Creek Crossing complex, 4711 64th St. NE •Mayor’s choice: Coastal Community Bank, 319 State Ave.

Letters to the editor Praise pair

I was with my two kids at Cold Stone in Smokey Point. I had to wait a while, and when I ordered, the young man behind the counter thanked me and explained they were calling police on an older man in the parking lot. He had just been in the store and was kidding the little kid he was with while in the bathroom, and a separate customer walked in on them. I thanked him for having the courage to call police.

These two young men need some recognition.

It’s not often young people have the courage to correct the wrong they see. They deserve a huge shout out and to know their deeds were not unnoticed. As a mandated reporter for child abuse it was good to see people reporting when they aren’t “mandated” to.

Calling police and making sure that little boy was safe is worth noting.

Every day, 16,000 children under 5 die of mostly preventable causes, so please join me in asking Congress to pass the Reach Every Mother and Child Act of 2015.

This legislation targets saving those children and the over 800 mothers who die every day from causes related to pregnancy and childbirth. This bill also makes our development aid agency, USAID, more efficient and transparent.

So why not make a call or send a letter asking our representatives and senators to pass this bill. What greater gift than saving the life of a child?

Willie Dickerson, Snohomish

Passage helps

Voter passage of the North County Fire/ EMS permanent levy for Emergency Medical Service will provide a stable revenue stream, meaning the fire authority can do long-term planning for the EMS program. We provide 24-hour emergency response for both Basic and Advance Life Support care.

This levy funds our emergency personnel, training, ambulances and maintenance support, medical supplies and equipment.

More than 75 percent of all our calls are EMSrelated, but not all calls require care in a costly hospital setting. Thanks to voters, in the future, we are looking at offering a community paramedicine program to provide morepersonalized attention for patients; reduce nonemergency calls to 911; and lower health care costs for our community.

Mock disaster shows us to stay alive The mock disaster the new Marysville CERT team participated in Nov. 10 taught us hard lessons. The main one was stay alive.

We were warned in class not to let our emotions get the best of us, but when you are trying to save lives, even in a fake situation, what comes naturally isn’t always the best thing to do.

Such as, when a power line is down, don’t get within 20 feet of it. Many of us thought we needed to get closer to see if there was a victim in a crashed truck.

In real life, we would have been dead. As was repeated many times in the eightweek Certified Emergency Response Team training, we can’t help anybody if dead.

Another lesson, do what your team leader says.

Victims can die while you debate. The team I was on did a terrible job of trying to extricate someone stuck under a concrete slab because we didn’t follow our training. Stack the cribbing correctly, make sure it’s steady before lifting with leverage, don’t get your hands under anything you are lifting, lift one side then the other and lift the item high enough a little at a time to pull the victim out.

Still another lesson learned is to make sure you work with a buddy. It is

CERT team members try to pry a concrete slab off a dummy in the mock disaster. important even when you triage victims. You can get overwhelmed with how horrible an injury looks. But a buddy can settle you both down and help you realize that a victim actually could walk out. If there are multiple victims, a buddy also can help you feel from being overwhelmed, especially when they are screaming in pain. A buddy can also help you survey the scene to make sure you don’t miss anybody.

When triaging victims make sure to open air-

ways because that’s all one may need to start breathing again. Have any survivors help you do things like direct pressure on bleeding wounds, etc. Talk to your victims to help calm them.

Diagnosing injuries is tough for non-professionals so victims may be able to help with key information.

If you smell or hear a gas leak shut off the valve closest to the ground by going a quarter-turn with a wrench.

You will be safe outdoors as long as you stay uphill and upwind so the gas doesn’t

accumulate around you.

Some other reminders: •When putting out a fire with an extinguisher, get as close as possible, spray back and forth at the base and close in as it starts to go out.

•If there is a fracture splint it before moving the victim.

Another free class will start up soon. For details contact Diana Rose with the city.

cent and increase our general fund capital reserves to 21 percent. We’re gaining nearly $600,000 in revenue thanks to funding from the recently re c e i v e d C O P S grant, special e v e n t f u n d ing from Nehring assuming management of the Marysville Opera House, and adjustments in revenue sources at the state and local level.

Thanks to our disciplined spending, we’re able to consider utilizing cash reserves to pay for some things that would have ordinarily required debt. This puts us in a position of strength as we look at some needed capital improvements and other enhancements to our community. That does not mean that loans will not be necessary in some capac-

ity, but our goal is always to minimize this. The COPS grant funding will allow us to add three more School Resource Officers to Marysville schools beginning next year, with additional funding from the city and partnership with the Marysville School District.

Though we’ve been cautious with our spending, we will have a few additional expenditures for 2016.

We will invest in three extra patrol cars for the SRO officers, purchase new software to help our parks department manage its workload, and will adjust for fee increases from local and regional partners.

Fortunately the additional spending is minimal and able to be offset by savings in other areas and increased streams of revenue.

This was one of the benefits of the two-year budget, rather than a one-year budget: It encouraged our staff to look into spend-

ing and revenue streams beyond the current year to ensure that our dollars stretch to meet all needs – current and future, planned and unplanned. Budgeting conservatively in the first year helps ensure that we don’t overspend and makes us think creatively to find efficiencies.

Our fiscal situation continues to be healthy, due in large part to those efficiencies. We have a disciplined spending philosophy that forces us to find new and innovative ways to be costeffective – at all levels of government. It’s not just our managers and policymakers who are finding ways to work leaner: Our employees do a great job finding unique ways to save taxpayer dollars while still doing quality work and providing quality customer service.

The Pregnancy Aid softball team defends in the field against the Arlington team’s batters in a fundraising tournament.

Nonprofits deserve respect, support than $34,000. Also, director Angel Metcalf writes grant requests, asking businesses for donations, and we have a few garage sales.

So I thought we should try a softball tournament because they are so big around here. To make it a little different from the usual tourney we called it the “Just for the fun of it coed softball tourney.”

We were able to keep the price down, $150 per team, by deciding not to have umpires or trophies.

We decided to have the tourney in Everett because it was too costly here. Everett gave us a great rate as a nonprofit, and allowed us to use four fields at Kasch Park.

To add to the low-key family atmosphere we

I’ve always had a special place in my heart for nonprofits. They do so much for so many people. I wish there were more of them and that more people would support them. They do things because they sincerely want to help, not for the money.

But I now have even more love for them after seeing firsthand just how hard it is to raise money for a nonprofit. I am a board member for Pregnancy Aid, a nonprofit that helps young mothers with things such as clothes, food, car seats, etc. It is associated with the federal Women Infant Children program.

We don’t have many fundraisers. Basically we have an annual auction, where we just raised a record of more

offered a free lunch to all players. Each team was supposed to have three women and seven men. To keep play moving each batter received just four pitches, but the pitcher was from their own team. Also, to keep from having blowouts, each team was allowed just one home run and four runs each inning.

Because I was the tournament director, The Marysville Globe-Arlington Times donated some ads, along with The Daily Herald in Everett. We ran a couple of small stories and were in the online calendars. We asked about 20 local churches through email to participate, along with the cities and school districts in Marysville and

Arlington. We worked hard to let the public know about our event, just like many nonprofits do.

At the tournament, Arlington put together a team, along with two teams from Pregnancy Aid. We played a doubleheader, had a great time playing ball, having fun, donating to a worthy organization. Both teams showed great sportsmanship, and it was just the kind of event I hoped it would be. I just wish we had more teams so we could have helped even more people – just like all nonprofits would like to happen.

crews a headache. The number of coal trains that pass through Marysville are increasing as the railroad companies want to add 18 more trains to run from Everett to Bellingham per day. The increase has caused serious issues with Marysville’s ambulance, fire and police services. While traveling through highly populated areas, trains are not permitted to exceed 30 mph. That slow down causes a significant traffic problem, which becomes a huge issue for local emergency services to get across the tracks during a train crossing.

Marysville’s vital economic structure has been negatively affected by train traffic. Most small businesses in Marysville are located on the east side of the tracks. These businesses suffer when coal trains come through town during peak business times, causing drivers to have to wait or not even bother.

Mayor Jon Nehring says that “The Puget Sound Regional Council did a study last year about Marysville’s businesses losing over $1.2 million per

year due to railroad traffic.”

Recently, the railroad industries have been planning on building a new train terminal at Cherry Point, Bellingham. This terminal will increase the number of trains that travel from Everett to Bellingham, causing more traffic problems in Marysville. These new jobs will only benefit Whatcom County, not Snohomish County or Marysville for that matter.

This increase in train traffic has damaged Marysville’s social status as well. The Strawberry Festival and Spencer Island Park are just a few of the many social attractions that bring people to enjoy Marysville. Traffic delays can keep them away.

Marysville has begun to make plans for a $50 million project for an offramp from northbound I-5 on to Highway 529 and Ebey Slough Bridge.

That would help alleviate traffic on 4th street and even 88th and 116th streets. Marysville needs more state funding in order to produce more offramps and bridges over the railroad tracks. I believe these roads will decrease train traffic, which will improve Marysville as a city overall.

Marysville leaders cheer new learning opportunities

By STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvillegloe.com

MARYSVILLE – Mayor Jon Nehring talked about a new Washington State University program in north Everett at a meeting with school officials this week.

He said a few years ago the city tried to get a college here.

“That did’t work out, but this is the next best thing,” he said.

Nehring said it “gets me in the gut” every time the city has to hire someone for a $100,000 a year job and it has to fly in people because there aren’t qualified people here.

He also talked Nov. 9 about another learning opportunity starting at Everett Community College that will help people get manufacturing jobs in as little as nine months. He also mentioned that a new law will give tax incentives to businesses that settle in the Arlington-Marysville manufacturing center and how the new Qwuloolt Estuary should bring in some eco-tourism.

He thanked the school board for

paying for two School Resource Officers. The city also will pay for two and a grant will pay for another one.

Nehring said he hopes those officers become as effective as the city’s NITE team.

“They have developed a level of trust, formed relationships and get intelligence,” the mayor said, adding if the SROs can do that they can be proactive and combat things like drugs and bullying.

Superintendent Becky Berg talked about the school district’s effort to upgrade its schools. “It has to be the will of the people. We can’t push it on them,” she said.

Berg said a 45-member committee is studying all the options and getting community input from various sources. Its last meeting is Nov. 17, when a decision will be made.

School board member Pete Lundberg said one thing leaders have learned under Berg is to “listen to input.”

School officials were surprised that the committee wanted to

include Totem Middle School in the upgrades. “It’s because of where it is,” Berg said. “They want to improve the look of downtown.”

To expand on that, Lundberg asked about the city’s purchase of property on the waterfront.

Nehring said the city wants to spruce up the area, hoping the private sector will follow with new businesses, such as restaurants.

Chief Administrative Officer Gloria Hirashima said the new Highway 529 onramps and offramps at I-5 will create a new major gateway to the city.

“It will recreate our image, what people think of us,” she said, adding right now they think of us as congested Fourth Street. Lundberg said the waterway is “tailor made for that,” meaning recreation.

Council president Jeff Vaughan, who has already been kayaking in the estuary, called it a living laboratory. In the future he sees buses of schoolchildren going to the site to see birds, seals and fish.

They talked about taking water trails to Snohomish, Everett and

Tulalip “when the roads get too crowded,” council member Donna Wright said, adding water taxis could be used.

School board member Camille Norton encouraged school officials to expand music offerings even more. Berg responded her commitment to music is “crazy strong” and that it won’t be cut “on my watch.”

Nation said he wants students exposed to as many courses as possible. “We want vibrant programs in all of our schools,” he said, but the state has so many required classes that makes it hard.

Leaders from both groups said they are glad to see more vocational offerings so students realize there are other alternatives than going to a four-year school.

Nation said courses have returned to middle schools, where they had been cut during the recession. Lundberg said the schools and city are working well together. “It’s about as good as it can be,” he said. Nation mentioned he would like the Tulalip Tribes to

be included in future talks.

Free movie planned

MARYSVILLE – A movie on how to break the cycles of poverty, violence and disease in families will be shown free to the Marysville community Nov. 17.

The movie “Paper Tigers” will be shown at 7 p.m. at MarysvillePilchuck High School auditorium, 5611 108th St. NE. Paper Tigers is designed to spark dialogue and offer hope to schools and youth struggling with dropout rates, truancy, violence, abuse and drug use. It follows a year in the life of an alternative high school in Walla Walla that has radically changed its approach to disciplining its students.

A panel will be available after the screening to answer questions.

The Marysville School District is partnering with the Tulalip Tribes, city of Marysville, Marysville/Tulalip United and Victim Support Services to show the movie.

BRIEFS School threat

LAKEWOOD — A Lakewood High School student was arrested Nov. 4 after reportedly making a threat to “shoot up” the campus, officials said.

Police got a tip about 7 p.m. Wednesday. The 16-year-old boy reportedly admitted to the threats.

He was booked into juvenile detention for investigation of “threats to bomb or injure,” sheriff ’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said.

The district sent a letter to parents the next day that did not describe the nature of the threat. It said that no students or staff were in danger, and class schedules weren’t affected. Police were on campus Thursday. There was no sign that the student had made plans to carry out the threat, according to the letter.

“The high school has issued appropriate discipline to the student,” district spokeswoman Robin Barker said Nov. 6. “We cannot provide specifics as the student is a minor.”

State, local leaders discuss special education issues kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Representatives of the Marysville Special Education PTSA have made frequent trips to Olympia to lobby state legislators, but Nov. 10 marked the first time that was reciprocated.

State Rep. Mike Sells supported authorizing the Individualized Education Program team to determine graduation criteria for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. When Marysville-

Pilchuck High School Life Skills teacher Jim Strickland reported that some parents harbored misgivings about the ambiguity of that, state Rep. June Robinson welcomed suggestions for the language they’d like to see.

When asked whether funds from the state Supreme Court’s McCleary decision would be used to address mental health needs of students, state Sen. John McCoy acknowledged “there’s a lot of unmet needs,” and vowed to push for more counselors and psychologists in schools.

Sells admitted that many homeless adults are being incarcerated because sufficient mental health services are not there, while Robinson noted that such services should be covered under Obamacare, but resources remain limited.

Board member Michele Olson reported that many psychiatric drugs are not covered under Obamacare, prompting Robinson to promise she’d look into it.

McCoy expressed frustration at what he saw as conflicting mandates, between the public’s support for

fully funding education at the same time they voted to reduce taxes the state can collect. “We can’t rob Peter to pay Paul,” McCoy said. “And if I were to draw up a bill for a state income tax, I would need to find a new job, because you would un-elect me, as you’ve done to my colleagues who had tried to do that.”

McCoy added that there’s not enough unassigned money in the budget to earmark for education. All three legislators expressed support for incentivizing the hiring of people with disabilities, even as he regretted that “there’s just not enough of them.”

Strickland suggested having the state pay a portion of those employees’ salaries.

When the questions turned to how to alleviate social isolation for disabled students and graduates, the legislators again expressed broad support while wondering where the funding would come from, although Sells suggested bringing the city of Marysville on board for such efforts.

“I don’t know how we can do a lot of these things without additional funding,” Marysville schools superintendent Becky Berg said.

When Strickland inquired about lowering the voting age to 17, so students

could become invested in elections while they’re still in high school, McCoy noted that similar measures have never gotten out of the legislature. School board member Pete Lundberg added that one of the larger obstacles facing students is the 24-credit requirement for graduation.

“You can’t fail one class and be on pace to graduate,” Lundberg said. “There are different paths, but what about the students who aren’t on IEP? I appreciate how Mike Sells said that more of this needs to be under local control, because it’s the teachers who know best.”

County leader Klein reflects on tragedies, homeless

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

SMOKEY POINT — Snohomish Council Councilman Ken Klein reflected on 2014 as “a year of tragedy,” even as he looked forward to tackling 2016 with a spirit of post-partisanship and a pragmatic approach toward issues such as homelessness.

During his Nov. 10 address to the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce, Klein praised Arlington and Marysville for coming together after last year’s Oso slide and MarysvillePilchuck High School shooting, and deemed their conduct a useful model for the nation to follow.

“Rather than federal and state people kicking the local folks out, we’ve used local resources who are closest to the problems and know how to handle them,” said Klein, who nonetheless has welcomed input from others on how to deal with the homeless.

As the council’s only Republican, Klein not only touted his work with his Democratic colleagues

to rescind pay raises that former county executive John Lovick approved for certain managers, but also reported that incoming county executive Dave Somers supported Klein’s proposal to “define the problem” of homelessness, through a board with representatives of government, nonprofit and for-profit agencies.

Klein has even advocated that Snohomish County follow King County’s example by making all its county offices non-partisan.

The Snohomish County executive, council members and prosecutor are all partisan.

“Instead of people protecting their party labels, we could have them be accountable for their performance,” Klein said, adding that this would decrease the number of midterm resignations. “Right now, you have a handful of activists on each side who select the nominees and successors. They’re picked through partisan games rather than skill.”

Klein estimated that he and his fellow council members manage to find common ground 90 per-

cent of the time, but noted that he differs slightly regarding the proposed county courthouse. He agreed that a new, relocated courthouse would cost too much, but he favors remodeling and eventually expanding the existing one.

“It would be fiscally irresponsible to just throw away everything that’s been done,” Klein said. “If we were to stop these construcKlein tion bonds, when we got them at some of the lowest levels in history, and then went back to remodel the courthouse later, we’d be selling low and buying high. We need a good-faith effort to review what a remodel would actually cost.”

Klein defended housing the homeless on the grounds of fiscal conservatism as well, by presenting the alternative of cycling the homeless through jail as costly and unproductive.

“In Utah, they’re focusing on housing first,” Klein said, “We’re all already paying for the homeless anyway. We just need to do it more smartly.”

Klein has reached out to officials from Seattle, Portland and even Los Angeles to see how they’ve handled the problem, but he’s also calling for federal bureaucracy to be less intrusive and self-contradictory in its regulations of how local jurisdictions can address the issue.

“Should we make zoning cheaper to allow for more homeless shelters?” Klein asked. “Resources are available, but the system is not set up for us to succeed in using them. Again, this needs to be under local control, because we understand what’s going on here better than the feds.”

Klein pointed out that social workers are embedded with Everett police to prevent homeless people with mental health issues from being put in jails that “aren’t set up to handle their problems.”

At the same time, Klein believes an increase in beds at Snohomish

County jails can aid other jurisdictions in housing their inmates.

Returning to the homeless problem, Klein asserted that identifying the root causes of homelessness is the biggest step.

“You’ll get a different answer to that question from every agency that you talk to,” Klein said. “We need to get them all in the same room, with all the research.”

He added: “What we do know is who the most frequent utilizers of our services for the homeless are. One person in Utah was using half a million dollars in services every year. When he got permanent housing and a casework, that yielded an enormous cost savings.”

Klein believes the best thing the council can do for citizens is to be transparent in their dealings.

“It’s when people see things happening as a result of backroom deals that they lose trust in government,” Klein said. “It’s okay to have honest disagreements as long as the conversations are out in the open. I enjoy working with people that I occasionally disagree with.”

Tulalip Tribes now part of national database on criminals Associated Press, Herald reports

Ten American Indian tribes, including the Tulalip Tribes, are gaining access to national criminal databases after a deadly shooting in Washington state helped reveal flaws in the way federal authorities and tribal governments share information.

The program allows tribes to conduct thorough background checks and enter criminal records, the U.S. Department of Justice said Nov. 5. It comes after glitches in the criminal reporting system allowed a member of the Tulalip Tribes to buy a gun that was later used by his son to kill four classmates and himself at Marysville-

Pilchuck High School last year.

A domestic violence restraining order issued by a tribal court in 2001 should have stopped the father from buying firearms.

“This innovative program will allow an unprecedented sharing of critical information between tribal, state and federal governments, information that could help solve a crime or even save someone's life,” Deputy Attorney General Sally Quillian Yates said.

Tulalip Chairman Mel Sheldon Jr. said it will empower tribal law enforcement by giving them the tools they need to protect their communities — tools that tribes

nationwide have pursued for years.

“We have to have access to this database not only to enter this data but to get this data,” he said, something that has not been possible due to restrictions placed on data sharing by the Washington State Patrol.

“It has consistently been our position that having the ability to independently report and access criminal information is the very best way to protect our citizens,” he said.

Access to the database has been authorized as part of previous legislation, including the Violence Against Women Act of 2005, the

Tribal Law and Order Act of 2010 and the 2013 VAWA reauthorization, but no system was established, said Francesca Hillery, a Tulalip tribal spokeswoman.

The shift allows tribes to conduct background checks, especially when they need to place a child with a foster parent in an emergency situation, Sheldon said.

Plus, they can enter tribal restraining orders into federal databases, which are used by gun dealers to ensure legal sales, he said.

The restraining order against Raymond Fryberg, which should have prevented him from buying guns, was never sent to the

Snohomish County clerk or entered into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System.

Fryberg's 15-year-old son, Jaylen, used one of his father's guns in the mass shooting at Marysville-Pilchuck. Raymond Fryberg was not charged in the shooting but later was convicted of six federal counts of illegally possessing firearms. He's scheduled to be sentenced early next year.

“Tulalip is going to work very hard with our neighbors and the program to make sure this succeeds so that all tribes have access to the database,” Sheldon said.

Arlington’s Sanchez saves Eagles in tourney

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — Kat Sanchez wasn’t sure how she did it, but she held a very physical Bellevue team to zero goals Nov. 10 in the first round of the 3A state playoffs.

“In all honesty I was just praying the whole time,” Sanchez said. “I just kind of used my instincts. And a lot of it was just God because I don’t even know how I did a lot of those things.”

Because of her performance, she has been named the Arlington TimesMarysville Globe Athlete of

the Week.

It’s really how all the senior goalkeeper games play out.

“What I’m like in keeper is so hard. I’m like in a limbo state,” she said.

“People have to tell me what I’ve done later because I’m just so into it.”

If she doesn’t rely on her instincts, it can be detrimental to her performance.

“It’s kind of hard as keeper to not let things get to your head,” she said. “And playing in the now, which is what [Arlington coach Nathan] Davis is always telling us about.”

Eagles advance; Tommies out

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

The Arlington soccer team battled two-time state champion EdmondsWoodway for the district title Nov. 7, but a goal by the Warriors in the second half proved to be the deciding factor.

“I couldn’t tell you how it happened to be honest,” Arlington coach Nathan Davis said. “It was just kind of a pressure and fluke thing that happens.”

Woodway appeared to be in better possession of the ball, but Arlington made some breaks that almost resulted in a goal — par-

“As a goalkeeper, you can have no memory,” Davis said. Otherwise “people are going to score more goals.”

Sanchez has trained with coaches to hone her goalie skills.

“If you overthink things that’s when you’re a second late,” Sanchez said.

Sanchez was backed by other defenders when Bellevue was swarming Arlington’s net.

“I think our big thing is pressuring high,” she said.

“Pressuring is a big part of it, like letting the midfielders take control and let them step up. They’re really good

with me on knowing when I call for the ball. They trust me pretty well.”

Throughout the postseason, Sanchez has only allowed one goal two-time state champion against Edmonds-Woodway 1-0 Nov. 7 for the district title.

She collided with an opponent and got a bruise from it, but she said she will not let it get to her head.

“From what I heard, there was nothing more I could do,” she said. “Which is more difficult to process if there was something I could do to change. Because then I know there is something I

ticularly Olivia Larson who went one-on-one with a Woodway defender to nearly finish a goal in the first half.

“It was an intense match, and I thought the kids played great. It didn’t work out for us but both of us are top-eight in the state so it was going to be an intense soccer game,” Davis said.

“It was beautiful,” coach Nathan Davis said. “It was a great pass from Olivia.”

Bellevue dominated possession of the ball, but Arlington’s defensive effort kept the Eagles competitive — particularly goalie Kat Sanchez, who made some key saves.

“My defense played amazing,” Davis said. “All the girls that played defensively did an awesome job.

They shut them down and played tight.”

Bellevue pressured

could work on. But I think it is something I have to keep to the side.”

She played goalie since her sophomore year at Arlington. She played various positions before that and was always a backup keeper for select teams she’s played on.

“And then when I got here, there was a lot of talented girls here on the field,” she said. “So I thought I’d try keeper and see if I thrived in that.”

She’s the “complete package,” Davis said.

“She’s got very good athleticism and foot skill,”

Davis said. “She’s a positive leader and works hard and has the soccer talent to go along with the other stuff.”

She’ll be asked to repeat her output against Sumner at the school’s Sunset Chevrolet Stadium Saturday, Nov 14, at 3 p.m.

Sumner is physical, Davis said. “She just needs to hold the fort down,” Davis said.

“She feels confident and hot.”

She has verbally committed to Northwest University in Kirkland because it is a Christian school with an “amazing soccer program,” she said.

Tribes share woes getting telecommunications service

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

TULALIP — It’s a Catch22 common to Native American tribes in rural areas. Telecommunications companies will say it’s not profitable for them to provide services, but when tribes try to create their own, the companies prevent them from doing so.

Travis Hill, operations manager for Salish Networks in Tulalip, was among tribal representatives who brought concerns to U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene Nov. 7.

“If a private company is getting money from the government, it should be inclusive in who it serves,” Hill said, recounting the struggles the Tulalip Tribes have had with Frontier Communications. “We’ve tried to work with Frontier, but they’ve dragged their feet. They’ve insisted there’s no business case for them to invest in this area. They’re literally not configured to allow us to order from them.”

Hill likewise described

Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo

Travis Hill of the Tulalip Tribes talks with U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene. the registration process to start up one’s own telecom company as “challenging,” since the tribes have waited years to secure exemptions from state oversights, to which they’re already entitled as a sovereign nation.

“It’s not just us,” Hill said.

“This is a national policy problem. Tulalip will ultimately make it work, but

other tribes will need federal funding to get there.”

Joni Soriano, director of planning and development for the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe, not only faced the total loss of the tribe’s ability to communicate with the outside world in the wake of last year’s Oso slide, but also has to cope with a lack of cell towers and Internet access that make it almost impossible for her to do her job.

“If I’m applying for government grants for our tribe online, I either have to submit them at one in the morning or drive to the Safeway in Arlington for their Wi-Fi,” Soriano said.

Andrea Alexander of the Makah Tribe on the Northwest Olympic Peninsula, who serves as energy and telecommunications co-chair for the Affiliated Tribes of

Northwest Indians, noted that internet and other telecommunications access is not just vital to a community education and economy, but also to its public safety.

Several tribes that suffer from telecoms gaps are also in the middle of the tsunami zone, which makes it harder for them to use emergency networks they need and are being asked to help pay for.

Tulalip native and state Sen. John McCoy echoed Hill’s characterization of telecom companies, based on his work with the Federal Communications Commission. “Only the big telecoms get the big dollars from the government,” McCoy said. “The tribes can’t get to those dollars.

Tulalip had proposed working with other partners to provide services to connect all the tribes north to Canada, but Wave said, ‘We own that territory, so you can’t provide services for it.’”

Alexander pointed out that only 10 tribes have been able to start up their own telecom companies, and agreed with DelBene’s assessment that the internet grew so fast that the FCC’s policies have yet to catch up.

“It’s not just a federal problem, but a government problem,” DelBene said.

“We’re not good at investing in technology. It is part of our infrastructure now, and not just the kind that you can build and then replace thirty years down the line.

You can’t just set it and forget it. Maintaining it is as important as getting it place to begin with.”

McCoy recalled the days when Marysville had broadband and Tulalip had dialup, because GTE wouldn’t cross I-5.

“As long as the determining factor is profit, you’ll never get there,” McCoy said. “It always infuriates me when people say Indians should pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, but then put barriers up to prevent us from doing that.”

Hill added: “For billiondollar telecom companies, the money they’d make out here is worth nothing to them, but for the tribes, that money could make a huge difference. And yet, everyone gets that money except for the tribes.”

When DelBene asked if there were any success stories for Native American tribes in telecommunications, McCoy pointed to the businesses that have flocked to Quil Ceda Village, while Soriano cited the Tulalip Data Services building in which they were conducting their roundtable.

“The staff here are paid living wages and allow Tulalip tribal members to do their online business at home, rather than driving fifty miles to do their work, like me,” Soriano said.

to be an emergency room nurse and teach music on the side.

Cameron Wagstaff has a 3.9 gpa and also has taken many AP and EvCC courses. He’s also on honor society; the Key and Sports Medicine clubs; varsity track and cross country.

For his Eagle Scout project he led an effort to build a kiosk at Ebey Waterfront Park. He’s also volunteered for festival of the trees, chess

club mentor, Strawberry Festival, athletic trainer and more.

He’s twice been student of the quarter, has numerous Scout leadership awards, and is president of his church youth group. As for work, he’s been a lifeguard, cashier and soccer referee.

After a two-year mission he plans to attend Brigham Young and major in physiology and developmental biology.

M’ville animal cruelty convictions common MARYSVILLE – A small terrier mix was emaciated and near death when Marysville Community Service Officer Dave Vasconi took custody of the dog a year ago.

The dog was taken to a veterinarian for emergency treatment. The vet testified in mid-September in the trial of the dog’s owner that the emergency care saved

the dog’s life. Vasconi has made over 100 animal cruelty arrests and has a 100 percent conviction rate.

“Animal cruelty investigations are so important because we are in a position of being the voice for creatures that are unable to speak on their own behalf,” Marysville police Cmdr.

Robb Lamoureux said.

Pasado’s Safe Haven,

an animal cruelty advocate group in Snohomish County, has been a very close-working partner of Vasconi’s. Many hands are involved in animal cruelty cases: police, safe haven groups for housing, veterinarians and prosecutors.

“We are a multi-faceted team working together on behalf of animals,” Vasconi said.

MARYSVILLE — Those looking to support the Marysville Community Food Bank through the annual All-City Food Drive still have a chance to break the event’s records for food and money donations on Saturday, Nov. 14, when the Marysville Walmart sets out its big red barrels.

More than 200 volunteers from Scouts, Kiwanis, Soroptimist International, the Marysville and Lakewood school districts, the city and fire district of Marysville, HomeStreet Bank and several youth sports teams were manning red barrels at the Fred Meyer, Grocery Outlet, Haggen, Safeway and Albertsons stores in Marysville and Smokey Point Nov. 7.

Even without their collection at Walmart, which was postponed to avoid conflicting with a veterans’ collection drive that Saturday, this year’s food drive has already collected 5,781 pounds of food and an estimated $1,500 in cash and gift cards.

Food bank director Dell Deierling pointed out that last year’s drive collected 6,382 pounds of food and

Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo

Esteban Levario, Isaias Panduro and Ashley Ruiz collect food. $1,901. The record for food collection is 6,589 pounds, which Deierling sees as easily beatable.

“What we need right now are turkeys,” said Deierling, who thanked local tribes for supplying grants to buy many of the turkeys. “Our goal is to give every family a turkey for Thanksgiving and Christmas. We achieved that last year, and we’re confident we can do it again.”

For the past two years, the number of families the food bank has served for Thanksgiving has held steady at about 700. Around Christmas, it’s usually closer to 625, and the food bank’s overall demand for this year

has gone down by nearly 6 percent, but as Deierling warned, “That’s still a lot of need.”

Indeed, Deierling added that year-to-date food and financial donations are also down, while one out of every 10 Marysville and Tulalip residents uses the food bank at least once throughout the year. Last year, the food bank provided more than 14,660 families with groceries.

The food bank will be distributing Thanksgiving baskets from 9 a.m. to noon on Friday, Nov. 20, and Monday, Nov. 23, as well as from 2-6 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 24.

Terminal protest

The Tulalips and other tribes rallied in the nation’s capitol last week against the proposed coal terminal at Cherry Point.

For three years Northwest tribes have provided government detailed letters identifying the impacts the terminal would have on fishing rights, the environ-

ment, natural resources and the health of Washington.

Additionally, the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians, representing 57 tribes, has taken action to oppose the increased transport of unrefined fossil fuels of coal, Bakken shale oil and tar sand oil across the Northwest.

“Our treaty rights are not for sale. The Gateway Pacific Terminal

project threatens our treatyreserved rights, and we do not support actions that would compromise or diminish the resources for which our ancestors sacrificed so much,” Tulalip Chairman Mel Sheldon Jr. said.

At the 7th Annual White House Tribal Nations Conference, Northwest tribes opposed a coal terminal being built on

Lummi’s sacred burial grounds, Xwe’chieXen. “We’re taking a united stand against corporate interests that interfere with our treatyprotected rights,” said Tim Ballew II, chairman of the Lummi Indian Business Council.

Tribal nations called on Congress to protect Native sacred sites. The tribes have repeatedly asked the U.S. Army Corps to

15

reject any permit applications proposing to build the terminal.

“We will not stand for more broken treaty promises,” Ballew said. “The proposed terminal will result in irreparable harm to our important crab and salmon fisheries. Our tribes stand in solidarity with one another to protect our way of life for generations to come.”
