Bothell in talks with two hotels for downtown developmentBY AARON KUNKLER

[email protected]

Plans for two large developments in downtown Bothell

seem to be moving ahead, as a residential and retail

center submit demolition applications, and two hotels continue purchase negotia-tions with the city.

� e Puyallup-based Bou-levard Place Associates LP owns a plot of land along the Bothell Everett Highway, or

the Boulevard, which hosted a former Safeway.

A� er the Safeway closed in 2011, Boulevard Place Associates purchased the nearly two-acre plot for around $3.5 million, promising to develop it, but

the old retail building still remains.

“� ey’re pursuing that development at the speed that they have chosen,” said Bothell City Manager Bob Stowe.

Boulevard Place Associ-

ates plan on constructing a � ve-story residential complex on top of retail businesses on the ground � oor as mandated by the city. It could house more than 290 residential units, o� ce and retail space and

create around 250 parking slots through an indoor parking garage and exterior parking.

Stowe said the company had submitted a demoli-tion request with the city

Voting for the Bothell and Kenmore City Coun-cils, two positions on the Northshore School Board and King County Proposi-tion 1 ended Nov. 3, with early results being posted and updated during the past days.

Candidates who are both ahead and behind are eager to begin implementing changes or weighing in on the direction they believe their municipalities and districts should take.

� e Bothell/Kenmore Reporter reached out to all candidates to get their takes on the results and next steps; these were the responses from those who replied.

Incumbent Andy Rheau-me has a 59-41 percent lead against challenger Roz Gorc

for Bothell City Council Position No. 2.

Andy Rheaume Continuing Bothell’s

downtown revitalization is a high priority for Rheaume he said in an email re-sponse. He said he is excited to work with new members on the council, and is grate-ful for what the old council has done for the city.

However, he said he has heard from residents that more attention needs to be focused on the rest of the city as well, which he said he will be working towards too.

Bastyr founders talk past, present and future of universityBY AARON KUNKLER

[email protected]

Bastyr University’s founders and current presi-dent shared the stage Nov. 6 in the campus’s chapel, where the speakers dis-

cussed where the university had been, and where it is going.

Bastyr was founded in 1978 by Dr. Les Gri� th, Dr. Joseph Pizzorno, Dr. William Mitchell and Sheila Quinn as a place to teach

natural medicine, though Mitchell died in 2007.

Natural medicine is a passion the three founders said was instrumental in creating the university.

“� e power of it was almost overwhelming. � e

power of how nature and your body work together,” Pizzorno said.

Before Bastyr was founded, Gri� th said natural medicine was widely disparaged due to its previously unscienti� c take

on medicine. One of the things he believes is invalu-able to Bastyr is its research capabilities and scien-ti� c processes in increas-ing legitimacy for natural medicines in mainstream healthcare circles.

“It’s easy to say we started this research idea, but it was a monumental task in that day. A truly monumental task,” he said.

� e panelists recollected the early days of the univer-

This holiday season, one group of art-ists and gourd

enthusiasts are hoping to share their craft with the Northshore community.

The Washington State Gourd Society will be hosting a gourd art gal-lery and competition from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday at Country Village in Bothell.

Jeannette Chrane is on the board of directors, and said although this is only the second event, she hopes the community will come check it out.

“I think it’s a great op-portunity for people in the area to see what can be done with gourds in varying levels of craft and art work,” she said.

Gourds can be carved, painted, burned and etched into a wide variety of crafts, ranging from amulets and earrings to two-foot high burn-craft-ed works.

“When I got into it, I didn’t realize what a wide format there is for gourds. Basically any-thing that can be carved into wood can be carved into gourds,” Chrane said.

Gourd societies have been popping up all over the country, with Wash-

ington state hav-ing around seven smaller chapters where artists, ranging from beginners to ex-

perts, can come and hone their skills, even

those who don’t fancy themselves as particularly creative.

Area artists will have gourds for sale and

people are encouraged to bring their own gourd art to participate in a competition.

And if crafted and maintained properly, Chrane said a crafted gourd can last for years.

“The gourd itself is durable, it will last,” she said. “They can pass it on in the family.”

The Fine Gourd Art Gallery and Holiday Gift Show is free and open to the public.

Gourds abound for the holidays at Country Village in Bothell

K E N M O R E ˜

At the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918, the guns � nally 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 Paci� c, 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 ac-tive uniformed servicemen and women who are serving in harm’s way. No matter how complex the mission, how di� cult the task or terrain, our uniformed service members and military fami-lies 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 � ghting a very real Cold War. Back then, the Domino � eory was fact. From the White House and Pentagon down to our family dinner tables, it shaped our foreign policy and our na-tional 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. Fi� y years a� er the beginning and 40 years a� er the ending of that war, many Americans fail to go beyond 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 re-ally 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 � re 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 ser-vice. 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.

If the world was blind, how many people would you impress?

If the world was blind, how many people would you impress? Sometimes I did wish everyone in the world was blind. I know what you all are thinking. “Why in the world would you want everyone to be blind?” Well, I’ll tell you why. If everyone was blind color could not be seen; Appearances would never be judged. Our words, our knowledge our hard work and dedication would be acknowledged in a di� er-ent way then it is now and it would be the only thing that carried us further in life. � e color of our skin should not deter-mine who we are. It’s honestly disgusting and disappointing to me to think that in 2015 (almost 2016) racism in our country is a problem and will continue to be unless we do something about It.

� at’s why I am going to not ask, but chal-lenge you instead, to be the change we, not want, but need to see. No one is born hating another person because the color of their skin, or their background, or their religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart more than it’s opposite. As you probably already know I am here to talk about racism and the discrimination we all have seen

over the past years against African American citizens and all POC’s (people of color).

I don’t really think I need to address why lowering another person’s value because of their skin color is a problem but for those of you who can’t quite grasp the concept, I’ll tell you why.

Walter Scott an unarmed 50 year old, was shot down and killed. Eric Garner, unarmed and 43 year old was held down in an illegal chokehold for 15 to 19 seconds while repeating the words “I can’t Breathe”. Michael Brown, unarmed and 18 year old was shot 12 times by police. Tamir rice, unarmed and 12 year old who was playing with a toy BB gun at a park and was instantly shot

by police upon arrival - 12 years old. � e age of a young boy who will never get to experience life to the fullest, the age of a boy who will never look back and regret his � rst years of junior high, walk

at graduation or � nd his signi� cant other and start a family of his own, the age of my

own brother. To think that my brother can be playing around at the park and possibly get shot by police just because he “looks” to be a threat is heart wrenching.

“Appeared aggressive,” “looked to be agitated and combative,” and “believed she had a gun” - those are direct words from the o� cers involved in similar cases like the ones I just read you. Do you see it now? � is is why we need to stop the never ending cycle of racism. It is very crucial to all of us and to this Community’s future, our

future and even our kids and grandkids futures that we stop the Stereotyping and racial pro� ling for our own sake because even the words “I can’t breathe” won’t save my brother and neither will his hands up.Talijah Vaotogo, Bothell

Legislation to support veteran military medics to the civilian workforce

Military veterans receive some of the best medical training and experience available when serving our country. � eir sacri� ces, commit-ment to duty and ability to get the job done in austere environments make them exceptionally well suited for working as EMTs and paramed-ics in our communities upon their honorable separation from the U.S. Armed Services. Experienced military medics are o� en required to duplicate their medical training at the most basic level to receive certi� cation to be hired for a civilian EMS job.

� e Veteran Emergency Medical Technicians Support Act of 2015 (S. 453/H.R. 1818) will help veterans return to work upon their completion of military duty and reduce unemployment among veterans. In 2012, 10,000 military medics separated and entered the civilian workforce. � is important legislation makes it easier and faster for veterans

who served as military medics to earn certi� cation as civilian emergency medi-cal technicians, and serves to � ll an essential public function in communities across our nation. Accord-ing to a recent Bureau of Labor Statistic’s Occupa-tional Outlook, there will be 55, 000 new civilian EMT and paramedic jobs created between 2012 and 2022. � e projected job growth rate is 23 percent, much faster than the aver-age for all occupations.

S. 453/H.R. 1818 ad-dresses these issues by:

• Amending the Public Health Service Act to direct the Department of Health and Human Services to establish a demonstration program for states with a shortage of emergency medical technicians (EMTs) to streamline state require-

ments and procedures to assist veterans who completed military EMT training to meet state EMT certi� cation, licensure, and other requirements;

• Determining the extent to which the requirements for the education, training, and skill level of emergency medical technicians in the State are equivalent to requirements for the educa-tion, training, and skill level of military emergency medical technicians;

• Identifying methods, such as waivers, for military emergency medical techni-cians to forego or meet any such equivalent State requirements;

• Giving priority to States who demonstrate a short-age of emergency medical technicians and requiring no additional funding.Helaman Burdge, Kenmore

in October, and in June 2014 they submitted a building permit application with the city. Early project estimates slated construction to begin in 2012, with building antici-pated to be � nished around a year-and-a-half later.

Stowe said the city is ready to accommodate develop-ment whenever the company decides to begin construc-tion.

“� e city stands ready to perform its regulatory du-ties,” he said. “We’d like to get them under vertical develop-ment as quickly as possible.”

While there is no set time-line, Stowe said he’s optimis-tic development could come soon.

“We assume it would be fairly quickly, or at least in the immediate near term,” he said, as demolition permits are quickly processed.

Two hotels are also tenta-tively slated to set up down-town along Northeast 183rd Street and the Boulevard. � ey would share common facilities like a pool, lobby and meeting areas but would constitute two separate brands.

Purchase negotiations be-tween the city and hotels are still underway, with Stowe hoping to reach an agree-ment by the end of the year.

� e hotels could have around 190 rooms and a parking garage. � ey may also lease around 100 park-ing slots in the new Bothell City Hall parking garage, an agreement which Stowe said will provide the city with long-term revenue.

No solid price estimates are available but Stowe said the land could be sold for upwards of $50-per-square foot.

If the hotels are construct-ed, city o� cials said it would bump the number of hotels in the city up to around a dozen.

“Having a hotel or an of-� ce is important for having a vibrant downtown during the day,” Stowe said.

If the purchase agree-ment passes this year, hotel construction could begin as early as next year. No specif-ics on hotel brands have been released.

Along with these potential developments, the city is planning to begin the second phase of its Boulevard Con-struction Project, which will add access lanes for bicycles, pedestrians and cars along the Bothell Everett Highway downtown.

� e � rst phase constituted projects like adding lanes in front of McMenamins and Six Oaks Apartments.

City o� cials hope the $14 million dollar project

will be funded through revenue from property sales and grant funds from the Transportation Improvement Board.

“We now believe that we’ll have enough money without any additional taxation to Bothell residents to � nish those projects,” Stowe said.

Another issue, one which city o� cials believe is the next step in attracting busi-nesses downtown, has been an ongoing issue.

“We’re still working diligently on obtaining funds from the state so that we can

remove the remaining en-vironmental contamination downtown,” Stowe said.

Soil contamination down-town came from dry clean-ers, and petroleum products used at the old Northshore School District transporta-tion center near Pop Keeney Stadium.

To date, the city has spent around $7 million dollars cleaning up contaminants, and expect to spend another $4 million, most of which Stowe hopes will come from the state.

A man was killed and a woman passenger was sent to Harborview Medical Center on Nov. 11 after police said their vehicle crashed into a tree in the 18500 block of 101st Avenue Northeast around 8:45 a.m.

Police said the vehicle was southbound when the driver lost control, hitting a tree which spun it around before coming to rest facing north.

The King County Medical Examiner’s Office and Bothell police are investigating the crash. It is unknown if intoxi-cants or speed played a role in the crash. The ages and names of the victims have not been released.

A police spokesman said drivers often use the road to avoid congested areas of Bothell Way.

Police said the road was closed for hours while they investigated the incident.

The crash marked the second deadly accident in Bothell this month, after another vehicle hit a tree early on the morning of Nov. 3 on 51st Avenue Southeast. The

crash killed one man and sent another to the hospital.

The Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office responded to reports of an accident in the 18500 block of 51st Avenue Southeast around 4 a.m., prompting them to close the road until around 8:30 a.m.

A Sheriff’s spokeswoman said they are unsure if the tree was in the road, or if the vehicle left the road, struck the tree and returned to the roadway.

The driver died at the scene and the passenger was transported to a hospital. The identities, ages and home-towns of both victims have not been disclosed.

Two crashes this month result in deaths

Drug traffickingBY AARON KUNKLER

[email protected]

A Bothell man was among a dozen people ar-rested earlier this month in King and Snohomish coun-ties in conjunction with a two-year investigation into heroin and methamphet-amine trafficking.

Alfredo Enciso-Begines, 27, of Bothell was arrested after police said he was part of a transnational criminal organization which was smuggling drugs through

California up to Washing-ton.

More than ten loca-tions were raided on Nov. 6 in King and Snohomish counties where police seized 14 pounds of heroin, 43 pounds of methamphet-amine, large sums of cash and eight handguns, accord-ing to a press release from the Department of Justice.

The raid is part of a two-year investigation which has yielded more than $1,100,000, 50 pounds of heroin and 100 pounds of methamphetamine the release said.

UW Bothell ranked seventh by Best Value SchoolsBY AARON KUNKLER

[email protected]

� e University of Wash-ington Bothell was recently ranked as the seventh best value university out of 15 in the state according to a list compiled by Best Value Schools.

� e survey factored

in graduation rates, net price, acceptance rates and a 20-year net return on investments.

UW Bothell ranked highly due to its swell of new majors o� ered since 2010, 33 to be exact, its diversity as nearly half of students represent ethnic minorities, and its $287,500 20-year return on investment for its average $9,209 yearly tuition rate.

Also noted in the survey was its new 36,000 square foot Activities and

Recreation Center which hosts student government o� ces, a gym and social space for the university’s 5,000 students.

� e list also ranked the Seattle UW at the top of the list, with UW Tacoma coming in � � h.

Another survey con-ducted by Washington Monthly ranked the uni-versity as 13th out of 233 colleges in their western region in its 2015 Best Bang for the Buck list.

Eastside Baby Corner Northshore is looking to expand beyond its current location, a move which they believe will help them reach more families.

Eastside Baby Corner Northshore was the result of a merger between Northshore Baby Corner and the larger Eastside Baby Corner.

Baby Corner serves low in-come and homeless children and families by providing

them with food, clothes and other services donated by the community.

� e Northshore location has been operating out of the Bothell United Methodist Church for years, but spokes-woman Stephanie Zurn said while they’re grateful to the church, the venue is reaching its limits.

“We need to grow. And then the space we’re in, it’s too small to reach the kids we need to reach in the area,” she said.

According to a press

release, Eastside Baby Corner Northshore is looking for a location with up to 1,500 square feet, heating, rest-rooms, cell phone reception and a max rental of $1,000 a month.

� e merger between the two Baby Corners allowed the Northshore location to serve 72 new children, move a pickup location for eight providers to a more conve-nient Bothell location and bring in � ve new provider partners, according to the release.

More people pay close attention to their physical

health and well-being, and yet obesity rates and diseases stemming from weight prob-lems continue to rise. While healthy eating and regular exercise have become com-monplace among the edu-cated and a� uent, the less fortunate show little signs of improvement re-gardless of e� orts by health experts and government policy makers to change their fate. In fact, studies � nd that the gap between the � t and the fat keeps widening.

Physical appearance has been an important issue in most societies throughout the ages, but today, how we look has become a re� ection of how we live and visa versa, says Dr. Florentine Fritzen, a journalist and historian who studies sociological trends.

Being well-fed was once a sign of wealth, but poor people are now most prone

to unhealthy weight gain and related diseases, while the well-to-do enjoy greater � t-ness and vitality, even longer life expectancy, than ever before.

Life presents itself very di� erently to these two groups. To which one you belong determines multiple aspects of your well-being, not just how well you eat,

Fritzen says.Your good looks

also play a role in how society judges you. For example, if physical beauty and � tness are equated with hard work, discipline and suc-cess, overweight

can then be identi� ed with laziness and lack of self-control. If slim is thought of as healthy, then fat can be considered as sick.

Numerous studies have investigated how physical appearance plays out in the workplace. Just being over-weight can hurt your career, according to Steve Siebold, a self-help coach, business

consultant, and author of “Die Fat or Get Tough: 101 Di� erences in � inking Between Fat People and Fit People.”

“Many employers look at obese candidates and im-mediately think, ‘this person failed in controlling their own health, how are they going to run a division,’” he warns.

More and more com-panies actively encourage their workers to stay on top of their health and o� er wellness programs and other incentives, which in turn help them prevent productivity loss and lower healthcare premiums. But, as some have reported, there can also be a lot of pressure on those who ‘don’t measure up.’

What gets too o� en overlooked in all this is how much easier it is to stay in shape for people who have the necessary means to take care of themselves. What is feasible with a good education, � nancial security, access to supplies

and services, a safe home and neighborhood, etc., can be a never-ending struggle without them. And that is not simply a matter of personal choices.

� e Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lists a number of determinants that decide whether someone’s living conditions are bene� cial or detrimental for his or her health.

how you � nish.”� e victory came following

SOUND PUBLISHING STAFF

The fact that the Cedar Park Christian volleyball team was swept by Lynden Christian in Saturday’s 1A state championship match was an afterthought for an al-ready tight-knit Eagles squad that was drawn even closer together this season by events beyond its control.

In September, Eagles coach Marni Drechsel went into cardiac arrest during a match against Archbishop Murphy.

Thankfully, she was tended to promptly, revived and continued to coach Cedar Park Christian all the way to the brink of a state champi-onship.

Since that night, Cedar Park Christian’s season has

been one long spin of the roulette wheel with house money on the table.

“We weren’t disappointed at all,” Drechsel said by phone from the team’s celebratory dinner after the match. “This team faced obstacle after obstacle this year and our season was marked with so many other things that we have no regrets. We left it all out on the floor. We fought hard all weekend and I can’t even say there was any head-hanging afterwards.”

The Eagles were handed another hurdle to overcome in warmups, as Tess Biscup, a key weapon in CPC-Bothell’s offensive arsenal landed awk-wardly on her ankle and was less than 100 percent during the match.

“She did a great job for us, but playing and playing hurt aren’t the same thing,” Drech-sel said. “We’re not taking anything away from Lynden Christian. They played really well, but we had to adjust our game plan a little bit.”

The Eagles had the luxury of relying on Sam Drechsel, the coach’s daughter, who will play at the University of Maryland next season,

and Tess Biscup’s twin sister Chloe.

The Lyncs were led by Kara Bajema, who was officially introduced as a member of Washington’s 2016 recruiting class on Saturday.

Lynden Christian beat the Eagles 3-1 in a district semifi-nal on Oct. 28 after CPC-Bothell defeated the Lyncs for the district crown in 2014.

“We know them very well,”

Coach Drechsel said. “It was just going to be a matter of personnel and who was on. It was a great battle.”

Memories of Saturday’s loss will fade away, but Drechsel and the Eagles have gained invaluable perspective on what is important in life.

“These girls see that vol-

leyball is a sport that brings us all together, but what mat-ters is friendships and their lives and living in a way that honors God,” Drechsel said. “We live in an area where we are fortunate enough to play a sport that we love. The perspective of it is so much more than the sport.”

Cedar Park Christian finishes second in 1A state volleyball tournament

IHS cross country at state meet

Inglemoor High School cross country runners competed at the state meet in Pasco, Wash. on Nov. 7, with two runners finishing in the top 20.

Nick Laccinole led the way, placing seventh overall in the 4A race with a time of 15 minutes and 39 seconds. He is the first Inglemoor boy to medal at the state meet since 2003. Laccinole placed 83rd as a sophomore and 31st as a junior.

“Nick capped off a great season with his seventh-place finish,” said Inglemoor head coach Kelly Richards. “He got out quick with the front pack and hung on for a strong finish. Getting a state medal is a really big

accomplishment and it is the perfect way to end his senior season.”

Laccinole also qualified for the Nike Border Clash in Portland on Nov. 22.

Viking Gavin Parpart had his best state finish placing 22nd in a time of 15:54, improving 11 places from last season.

Parpart, Rebecca Led-sham and Laccinole were named to the All-State cross country team for the 2015 season.

The All-State team recog-nizes the top 50 athletes per gender across all classifica-tions from the state meet.

Ledsham placed 16th overall in a time of 18:33, also earning a state medal. This is the sixth year in a row an Inglemoor girl has made it to the podium at the state meet.

the experience of campaign-ing for office took some getting used to, but she thinks she will run again in the future. She said she met won-derful people and learned about the community.

Gorc said she will be following the council as it addresses challenges associ-ated with rapid growth, rising costs, taxation and said she will be presenting regularly to the council.

James McNeal has a 59-41 percent lead against Tim Ottersburg for Bothell City Council Position No. 4.

James McNealMcNeal said he will be

looking into transporta-tion issues, crosswalks and sidewalks, especially around schools, and funding for the fire department and city

parks. “I think the big things for

me are the things we ran our campaign on,” he said.

He said his experience with OneBothell has taught him how to work with people to get things done, and that he looks forward to increasing collaboration between area municipalities.

“We really need to start working with Redmond, Woodinville, Kenmore,” he said. “It also gives us the ability to understand how what they’re doing impacts us, and how what we’re doing impacts them.”

McNeal hopes he can get state and federal legislators to work across the aisles to secure funding and grants for the city, and that the com-munity should be leading the discussion in regards to balancing development and preserving open spaces.

“I think the community needs to make the decision on ultimately what’s the best use for it,” he said.

“I think it’s important for everyone to stay engaged, make sure that they reach out to us,” he said.

Davina Duerr has a 69-30 percent lead for Bothell City Council Position No. 6.

Davina DuerrDuerr said she’s looking

forward to seeing Bothell grow, and wants to look into creating a main street pro-gram to support businesses in renovating and restoring their historical buildings.

She is also interested in improving sidewalks, par-ticularly around school zones.

“Budgets are values, and kids need to be valued in our budget,” she said.

Long term plans include continuing to look at how to attract and increase public transit in Bothell.

“I’d love to see a multi-level parking garage put in at the current downtown Bothell park-and-ride,” she said, which would serve the transportation system and as downtown parking.

Parks and open spaces are also of concern to her, par-ticularly Wayne Golf Course and Shelton View Forest.

“I’m all in favor of saving Wayne. I think there’s many reasons that Wayne needs to be saved,” she said, including salmon habitat.

But she’s also concerned with the overall tone on the council.

“I think our first job on council is to change the atmosphere on council to one where there’s mutual respect and transparency. I think that’s the first job for all of use,” she said.

In the race for Kenmore City Council Position No. 5, Kenmore Mayor David Baker leads challenger Bob Black 68-32 percent.

David BakerIn his coming term,

Baker said he’s grateful for the people of Kenmore to allow him to continue serving in his position on the council.

He said he wants to con-tinue working and watch-ing the development of the downtown area.

“There will be other major announcements in the next year, I’m hoping,” he said.

These developments can’t be discussed due to confiden-tiality agreements, said Baker.

“There’s some amazing things going to be happening in Kenmore,” he said.

Also on his agenda are re-

placing the bridge along 68th Avenue, which has received full funding, and working to acquire full funding for the State Route 522 improve-ments, as well as sidewalks, bike lanes and making the city more pedestrian-friendly.

Bob BlackBlack said he believes

policy should be more proac-tive instead of reactive, and is disappointed in the election turnout.

“It’s truly unfortunate that there wasn’t a better turnout in the elections,” he said. “A lot of people are becoming disillusioned so they’re not even attempting to make change.”

He is concerned about city surcharges on utilities and where the funds are going.

Black said he plans on run-ning again.

“One person can’t make a change, but one person can initiate a change,” he said.

Black said big issues he hopes the city addresses are improving infrastructure for traffic, not just pedestrians.

“There needs to be some thought and action put into developing and maintaining and correcting the vehicular traffic issues,” he said.

Ken Smith leads John Hammond for Northshore School Board District Direc-tor No. 2, 53-46 percent.

Ken SmithCentral to Smith’s ideas for

the board are immediately in-

creasing transparency around capital financing and where the funding comes from, and goes. Starting off, he said the board needs to hold a study session.

He also said he wants to see every child graduate and start on a path to success, as well as articulating his goals for the board.

“From a leadership perspective, I think it’s very important to have a clear goal,” he said.

“We can work together to make things better.”

David Cogan is leading Berta Phillips 57-43 percent for Northshore School Board District Director No. 3.

David CoganCogan said he’s looking

forward to studying is-sues facing the district like boundary realignment, the challenge program, readjust-ing junior high and middle schools and full-day kinder-gartens, and implementing changes.

“We have a lot of immedi-ate challenges in our districts in the next couple years,” he said. “All these things are get-ting top priority.”

Funding was also a key issue to Cogan.

“I think the overarching goal would be that the state of Washington’s legislature fully fund education,” he said.

All 2015 general election results will be certified on Dec. 3 by the Washington Secretary of State’s Office.

sity, which they say was started with a $200 dona-tion and volunteers from around the area. It grew into the largest natural medicine university in the state, and in 1996 moved to its current cam-pus at St. Edwards State Park in Kenmore.

Looking forward, the founders and current president Mac Powell said they feel the university

should focus on integrat-ing their students into mainstream medicine, es-tablishing residencies and programs with hospitals and other universities.

“This is a new and dynamic and growing profession,” Griffith said. “We need people who step up and stand out and take the job and take this profession to the next level.”

Pizzorno said Bastyr

has run on three broad ideas encompassing advancing a body of knowledge, enacting so-cial change and running on a sustainable business model. He said he hopes the contributions made by Bastyr will eventu-ally reintroduce the idea of the ‘physician healer’ back into medicine, in-stead of just doctors who treat symptoms of illness.

In laying out his vision

for the future, Powell said he will focus on attract-ing world-class faculty and students, seek grants to fund activities and programs, minimize or eliminate tuition increas-es and collaborate across disciplines internally and with the community in the Seattle area.

“We really should be thinking of our role out in the world,” he said.

BY AARON KUNKLER

[email protected]

� e city of Bothell is set to receive $86,721 next year in excise taxes from the Liquor and Cannabis Board, a number based o� the sales of recreational marijuana, placing it ninth overall in Washington State.

When Initiative 502 passed in 2012 allowing the then-Liquor Control Board to begin develop-ing a system of legal and regulated pot sales, there were no speci� c revenue sharing mechanisms included.

“So what happened is the original initiation of I-502 didn’t have any money allocated to cities or counties,” said Liquor and Cannabis Board spokesman Mikael Car-penter.

With the passage of House Bill 2136 earlier this year, cities and coun-ties will receive funding from excise taxes be-ginning in 2016, under certain conditions.

� e state allocated $12 million to be distributed

to counties and cities over next two years, or $6 mil-lion a year, paid quar-terly at $1.5 million. For municipalities to receive funding they must allow state licensed marijuana growers, producers and retailers to operate. If a county doesn’t allow pot businesses, but cities do, all the county funding goes to those cities and vice versa. If neither allow marijuana businesses, neither gets a check from the state.

Distributed revenue is based o� of how much excise tax was collected through retail sales from July 1, 2014 to June 30 in individual municipalities.

Topping the list of 59 cities expecting excise tax returns are Vancouver with $790,516, Tacoma at $447,883, Seattle with $383,316, Spokane at $123,011 and Bellevue at $102,314, according to � gures calculated from Li-quor and Cannabis Board data.

At the bottom of the list are Bainbridge Island with $728, Yakima at $86, Edgewood with $16,

Sunnyside with $13 and Bremerton at $9.18.

Carpenter said Van-couver likely topped the list due to its proximity to Oregon, where until this year, recreational mari-juana was illegal.

Union Gap allows mari-juana sales, and came in at the number eight spot on the list with $93,722. � e city sits adjacent to the much larger city of Ya-kima, which has banned the sale and production of recreational marijua-na in city limits.

While the mon-ey is for enforcing marijuana laws, Carpenter said there are no earmarks or speci� c programs which cities must create with the funds.

Along with a revenue distribution model in SB 2136, there was also a restructuring of taxes on the marijuana industry.

Previously there was a 25 percent tax between each level of growers, processors and retail. � e new legislation did away with this and imple-mented a � at 37 percent

tax paid by the consumer on purchase, which was designed to bring in the same percentage of tax revenue.

Roger Malaky is a manager at Herbal Nation, which opened in August 2014 as one of the � rst re-tail pot stores in the state, and is now one of three Bothell pot stores. He said when the SB 2136 came into e� ect in July, prices began dropping and some people started noticing.

“� e customers have. It’s gotten a lot more a� ord-able, because now we can a� ord

to sell it for less, because we’re buying

it for less,” he said.Malaky said this spring,

an ounce of marijuana, which is the largest quan-tity legal to possess for most people in Washing-ton, cost as much as $350. Next week his store will get its � rst shipments of $150 ounces, a more than 200 percent decrease in price.

Seasonal business cycles play into the price drop too.

“� ere’s a glut of prod-uct because the harvest just came in from the fall,” he said.

Growers are able to sell to producers, who sell to retailers at a lower price with the elimination of tiered taxes. Tax restruc-turing combined with an abundance of product and market competition has forced prices down.

Herbal Nation was the only retail recreational marijuana store in the Bothell area until April of this year, when Local Roots Marijuana opened a location in Brier, and another along State Route 527, both of which the Li-quor and Cannabis Board classi� es as Bothell-based.

Consequently, most of the $86,721 Bothell will receive next year was based on sales from Herbal Nation, a proud fact for Malaky.

“We worked hard. We were the second store to open in the Seattle area. � at de� nitely brought in some sales tax and some excise tax,” he said. “We were well received.”

Between July 1, 2014

and June 30 the store sold more than $5 million worth of product, raking in more than $1.25 mil-lion in excise taxes.

Total revenue for all three pot stores in Bothell was more than $5.4 mil-lion, reaping more than $1.35 million in excise tax, meaning the city of Bothell is receiving a 6.39 percent return on total excise taxes on top of the already existing sales tax.

Malaky hopes the city will use their portion of the revenue to fund drug treatment and outreach programs in the area.

“� ere has been a lot of addiction coming slowly down from Snohomish,” he said.

City of Bothell spokes-woman Barbara Ramey said the city will begin deciding how to spend the revenue at a budget meet-ing Nov. 17.

“Before anything else, preparation is the key to success.”

Alexander Graham Bell

Added $35,000 in Value!

Original value was just under $700,000. Clean up, staging and minor repairs resulted in a $739,000 sale price. Sold in one week.


The Seller left the country and just gave us the keys to prepare the house. Some landscape clean up, staging, plus having the home pre-inspected resulted in a $51,100 gain over the original home value!

“Karal & Kevin are quite the team! They worked with my 82 year old mother to get the best price for her home. They cleaned it up, staged it beautifully and had multiple offers within a week. We even got more than the list price. What a pleasure to work with them with little effort on our part. I would highly recommend them to anyone.”

COX + SCOTT = Great Results


Minor updates, staging and aggressive negotia-tions resulted in this Seller getting a record sale price for their neighborhood. $35,000+ over the home’s original value.
