Bothell officials bring back City Hall plan following 28 month layoffBY MATT PHELPS

[email protected]

One of the biggest expenditures the city of Bothell will ever make is for a new City Hall in downtown. In 2011, the cost estimate was more than $42 million. � e

city has been working on the project for six years but delays have taken the project out of the spotlight during the past two years.

City sta� brought the issue back for public discus-sion on a de� ning part of the project during the Nov. 12, 19 and 26 council meet-

ings. “Due to the unavoid-

able delay of the Bothell Crossroads project, which is currently under construc-tion, as well as the slow economic recovery from the recession, the construc-tion of the City Hall has proceeded in a more con-

servative phase approach than originally planned,” said Bothell City Manager Bob Stowe during the Nov. 12 meeting.

� e Council took public comment during the Nov. 12 and 19 meetings and were planning to discuss and possibly take a vote on

the proposed Predevelop-ment Agreement on Nov. 26.

“� is really cements the relationship between the city and the developer,” said Bothell City Councilman Andy Rheaume.

� e Nov. 26 meeting took place a� er the Reporter

deadline. Council discussed the proposed Predevelop-ment Agreement with City Investors Development, Inc., also known as Vulcan Real Estate, at length. It would cost the city $835,646.

Holidays come alive at Chalet CadeauBY MATT PHELPS

[email protected]

For many, the holiday season begins with Black Friday and all the sales at box stores and online. But for others, it does not start without other more festive seasonal traditions. One holiday tradition for many north Lake Washington residents is a trip to Chalet Cadeau.

� e store relocated from downtown Kirkland to Bothell, next to the new Safeway at 24110 Bothell-Everett Highway, last spring and has maintained the same sense of holiday tradi-tion and charm.

“Christmas takes a lot of time to set up and take down,” said owner Wendy

Marshall. “When it is all set up and pretty, I love it.”

Marshall said that the transition from her normal merchandise to the holiday merchandise is tiring and stressful but worth it. � e store is currently full of Christmas ornaments and decorations but it wasn’t always that way for Marshall and her sta� . When Chalet Cadeau was in Kirkland, Marshall opened a year-round Christmas decoration store on the same street as the regular store. Marshall decided to bring the two stores back together with the move from Kirkland to Bothell.

“� e Christmas store re-ally needs to be in a tourist area,” said Marshall. “I have

City hosts 40 officials from across US for economic eventBY CARRIE RODRIGUEZ

When the owners of Kenmore Air told city o� cials

that the Secret Service shuts down their seaplane op-eration every time the U.S.

president visits the area, Kenmore o� cials listened.

� e Kenmore City Coun-cil added the information to its federal legislative agenda to see how the city could work with the government to potentially keep the business open during those

times. When several local busi-

ness owners told Kenmore o� cials they wanted the city to have freeway signage on Interstate 5 and Interstate 405, the city added that to its state legislative agenda. � e city

of Kenmore will appear on freeway signage on both interstates, beginning next year.

“What’s important to them is what’s important to us,” Kenmore City Manager Rob Karlinsey told about 40 city o� cials from across the

U.S. who packed the Ken-more Council Chambers on � ursday.

� e city representa-tives came together for the National League of Cities Conference in Seattle to share best practices, before a busload of o� cials headed

to Kenmore City Hall, where Kenmore o� cials hosted a mobile workshop on how the city is leverag-ing its assets for economic vitality.

City o� cials came from approximately 22 states, as

“We have to refresh the plans and then make a decision on whether to go forward,” said Stowe.

The agreement would complete the design proposal for the new City Hall, allow-ing Vulcan to present the city with an updated guaranteed maximum price for the proj-ect, which is expected to have increased since 2011.

Vulcan’s guaranteed maximum price is expected to curb costs.

“We know that in a lot of our public contracts that change order costs have been significant,” said Councilman Bill Evans. “In this particular bidding climate, people are bidding it low to get the job and then making up those costs as they go through the project. I think that the fact that there is a guaranteed maximum price is a way to curb that. We may pay a little bit more in finance charges but we certainly save overall on the project.”

The city has already completed the first part of the project by acquiring the land, relocating utilities and demolishing the buildings on the property. The proposed building would be located on the same block as the current City Hall building.

Many residents questioned the site proposal based on cost. But city officials pointed out that the location was debated and agreed on two years ago. But the 28 months that the project was put on

hold due to the economic downturn has led to a dis-connect between city staff, Council and the public.

The Predevelopment Agreement is the second part of the plan, taking the build-ing’s design from 70 percent completion to 100 percent and bringing the design into compliance with recent updates to Washington state building and energy codes. Then the city could acquire the building permits.

The facility’s financing is planned as a lease de-velopment project using a nonprofit public benefit cor-poration, City Investors LLC, to issue tax-exempt bonds. Vulcan would build the new City Hall and correspond-ing parking garage. The city would then lease the building from the non-profit for 30 years at a projected $3 million a year. The city would then own the building.

Stowe said the last time the issue of a new City Hall was placed on the ballot was in 2002 as part of a facilities measure with the Northshore School District that failed.

Waiting to go forward with the project could cost taxpay-ers, according to city officials.

With interest rates expect-ed to rise, the city estimates that the project could cost $24 million more if built in 2017 and $44 million more in 2019.

The city has also looked at

ways to bring the cost of the project down. One idea is to eliminate one or two levels of the three-level parking garage, which would be built under the new City Hall. Another idea is to eliminate a floor from the four-floor City Hall building. That fourth floor could be left empty after the building is constructed to save on costs but in place for any future city expansion.

The few people who showed up to the meeting on Nov. 12 were surprised by the agenda item.

“I want to build a new City Hall as much as any of you do but I want to point out to you that the last time this topic was on the agenda for discus-sion with the public was in June 2011,” said Bothell resident Dick Paylor during public comment.

But it wasn’t just the citizens who attend council meeting. Rheaume was taken aback by the apparent haste at which the city brought the issue back, stating that it had not been on the projected agenda items list.

“It has been two years since the council has talked about this,” said Rheaume. “This is a $50 million decision. It was surprising to me to have people who are for the project asking for more time and more public input.”

City staff disputed that issue.

“It was on there for a week

or a week-and-a-half in ad-vance,” said Stowe. “We never had any intention of making any decisions on (Nov. 12).”

Stowe confirmed that the item was added to the pro-jected agenda on Nov. 1.

“The discussion tonight [Nov. 12] was never on the projected agenda,” said Paylor. “So unless you had been watching the agenda every week you would not even know that this is being talked about tonight, yet it is probably the biggest financial decision the city has ever made. I am here to ask you to take a time out and step back and engage the public on where you’re at.”

Three of the four speak-ers at the Nov. 12 meeting expressed concern for the timing at which the agenda item was brought back to Council for approval. City staff continued public com-ment on Nov. 19 and 17 residents spoke in favor of slowing down the process of against the projected cost of the project.

City officials decided to hold the vote on the Prede-velopment Agreement during the Nov. 12 and 19 meetings. It was unclear if the Council would vote on Nov. 26.

If the council approves the Predevelopment Agreement, it will still have to take a final vote to approve the construc-tion of the new City Hall building in May 2014.

a lot of loyal customers. There were already a lot from Bothell.”

Chalet Cadeau started out in downtown Kenmore in the Schnitzelbank Building on Bothell Way where Snapdoo-dle Toys is now located.

Marshall and her family moved to Washington from California during the 1990s because of her husband Jeff’s career. She started Chalet Cadeau in 1997 after being unable to re-aquire a job as a court reporter.

“We knocked three holes in that place to take some

extra space,” said Marshall of the original location.

The store’s year-round merchandise is an eclectic mix of collectibles and gifts, ranging from jewelry and baby items to greeting cards and knickknacks.

“I just loved shopping,” said Marshall. “In the begin-ning I picked what I liked but I started to learn what the customers want.”

Marshall said that after Christmas the real shopping begins for her, as she flies to Atlanta to buy Christmas merchandise.

“There are six floors and I

shop there for a week,” said Marshall. “A lot of people want made in America and we have a massive selection of cards.”

Chalet Cadeau also gives back to the customer with free wrapping all year round.

“It is a big expense but it is also a nice way to say thank you for shopping here,” said Marshall. “Everyone used to get presents wrapped. Now you’re lucky if it is in a box.”

One trend that Marshall wants to follow is mak-ing Chalet Cadeau items available online. “I think it will be within the next year,”

said Marshall. “It is really expensive to do. We started doing it just before we moved to Bothell.”

The biggest expense is for shipping and then Marshall and her five employees have to take a photo of everything in the store.

A lack of parking and es-

calating rent forced Marshall to move from downtown Kirkland.

“I thought it would be a better space with a lot more parking,” said Marshall. “The building in Kirkland leaked and the rent was about $20,000 a month. My customers would shop and

go to lunch and come back and they would have tickets on their cars. [The move] happened pretty fast and we were downsizing but the move was a good one.”

Chalet Cadeau will welcome back harpist Bronn Journey tomorrow for an in-store concert from 1-4 p.m.

delBene votes for House insurance plan

U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene voted Nov. 15 to let Ameri-cans renew their individual insurance policies through 2014.

“Like many Americans, I have been very frustrated and disappointed by the poor implementation of the federal health exchange,” said DelBene, of Medina. “This is why I voted ‘YES.’”

DelBene added that she respects the decision made by Washington’ state Insurance Commissioner Mike Kreidler not to allow plans that lack Affordable Care Act benefits to be renewed.

“Washington is fortunate to have a health exchange that is providing residents the ability to find and purchase one of 46 quality plans.,” DelBene said.

More than 77,000 people already have enrolled in health care plans in the state.

“However, not every state has the Washington Health-planfinder and individuals should not be penalized by the administration’s broken promise,” DelBene said. “My vote today represents my desire to correct the rollout of the federal exchange and provide relief for Americans who are having difficulty participating in the federal exchange.”

DelBene said she does not support dismantling or repealing the Affordable Care Act “because I know the status quo before was unac-ceptable.”

DelBene noted that while the law is not perfect she sup-ports making clear, specific changes as needed to improve the ACA.

Toy N’ Joy driveBartell Drugs is once again

partnering with the Salva-tion Army to provide holiday gifts for children in need by collecting new, unwrapped toys during its 10th annual Salvation Army “Toy ‘N’ Joy” drive, Nov. 17 through Dec. 14.

The toy donations will be accepted at all Bartell Drugs locations in King, Pierce and Snohomish counties. Toys will be distributed to low-income children and youth the week before Christmas through the Salvation Army’s

“toy warehouses.”Bartells Bothell stores are

located at 22833 Bothell-Everett Highway and 18001 Bothell-Everett Highway, Ste. 101, Bothell.

The five-week drive in 2012 generated over 5,400 toy donations by Bartell’s customers—the estimated equivalent of $81,300 in toys to the Salvation Army.

Some of my fondest memories from childhood are of the holidays. A toasty apartment on Capitol Hill in Seattle, complete with conden-

sation on the windows, would be a stark contrast to the biting cold outside. I would stick my head out the window, leaving the aroma of a cooking turkey and stu� ng, to see the lights atop the Space Needle. My grandparents’ apartment was small but it was the only place my sister and I experienced � anks-giving until we were adults.

� anksgiving was also � lled with football on the TV and all my immediate relatives talking politics and job stu� I generally did not understand. With my grandparents long passed and my young family beginning new traditions, I know how important it is to spend time with them.

� anksgiving is a family-� rst holiday and most all Americans celebrate it relatively the same way. It is not subject to a person’s religious preference. It can be celebrated by those with or without children and enjoyed just the same. Most people are given the day o� of work - or at least that is how it used to be.

Recent trends have turned Black Friday into Black � anksgiving. Most stores opened for the holiday shopping season yesterday with “door-buster sales!” In an attempt to extend the holiday shopping season and make more money, big box stores are trying to replace turkey dinner with stampedes for a cheap TV. � e car ride to grandmas is being replaced with people searching for parking in mall lots.

Some have gone so far as to say that this is the beginning of the end of � anksgiving. I take issue with that. Not everyone participated in Black � ursday. Many people ignore the idea of the crushing and chaotic masses pushing and shoving for a $10 toaster oven.

I have been known to get up early on Black Friday, a rarity for me on a day o� , to see what was available. But I will opt for sleep this year and

boycott the sales today in protest of the encroach-ment on � anksgiving. I absolutely refuse to be a part of the corporate and consumer greed that has become Black � anksgiving - and I am not alone. Many consumers and retail companies have joined

the call to stop the devolution of � anks-giving.

Sur La Table in Kirkland is one of those stores.

“� anksgiving is a time to be with families and loved ones and we won’t be sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy that diminishes the important role the holiday plays in celebrating and creat-ing family traditions,” said Sur La Table

President and CEO Jack Schwefel in a statement last week. “I hope that our customers and our employ-ees will do just that, enjoy the holiday. But if they wish to shop, surlatable.com is open all day and night. Don’t misinterpret our message as not being customer focused. We will provide valuable and useful services to customers in our stores in every way possible, just not on � anksgiving! Our em-

ployees deserve the opportunity to also give thanks.”Most local stores were closed yesterday. Some

national companies that call Seattle home, such as Costco and REI, refused to take part in the Black � anksgiving trend this year. Reward them.

But Black � anksgiving doesn’t just impact con-sumers. Many box stores banned employees from requesting vacation on � anksgiving. � ey banned employees from spending one of the most family-friendly holidays with their families.

� e irony of Black � anksgiving is that it will slowly erode the most prosperous season for an-other sector of the retail economy - grocery stores.

Retail analysts predict that yesterday was just the start of the trend of making the holiday shopping season longer. Some predict that eventually all companies will be open on � anksgiving and start their sales even earlier during the week. We may eventually get to Black Halloween - poetic but just as crass and annoying.

Petition in the works to ban bicyclists from using Big Finn Hill Park

Evergreen Mountain Bike Al-liance, in collusion with the King County’s natural lands program project manager David Kimmett, have taken it upon themselves to remake Big Finn Hill Park in their own image, in spite of the many voices of protest from the local community.

I must certainly give the bike alliance a hand for their ability to motivate their base of support and motivating their members into action; however, the bike alliance’s and King County’s inability to hear the voices of the people whose lives and neighborhood these changes most directly a� ect, is greatly disturbing to myself and nearly everyone in my community.

Every time that we have ex-pressed concerns about the changes to the park, we have been told that

we are being rude and that this is essentially a done deal. At no time do I, or the majority of my neighbors, feel that we have had a meaningful voice in this process.

I recently received a forwarded email from the “committee” saying that “users other than the riders are fragmented and unlikely to come together under any circumstances.” � at just makes me mad. You have poked the bear and stirred up a hornet’s nest in the process.

If the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance and King County had truly attempted to work with us, I am sure we could have reached a compromise, but there has been no attempt at diplomacy on their part. From everything that I have seen and heard, the changes to this park are a foregone conclusion and the local residents’ opposition is a minor inconvenience to be swept under the rug and ignored. When the desires of a small special inter-est group completely railroad the wishes of the overwhelming major-ity of the local community, I worry

for our democracy.Since they have decided to

exclude us from the process, we are now circulating a petition to have bicycles banned from the park. Got your attention now? Can you hear me now?

� is petition will be � led, unless the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alli-ance stops making “improvements” to our park.

We have never had a prob-lem with sharing this beau-tiful park with bicyclists, or any other visitors. � is is a very friendly and tolerant community. Our tolerance, however, is at an end.Sean Cash, Kirkland

Democratic process over Big Finn Hill Park is thwarted

� e issue of use and “improve-ments” to Big Finn Hill Park (west) is one that touches me deeply.

I am dismayed that a committee of 18 individuals can make closed-

circuit decisions for a community park that has been enjoyed (and maintained) by hundreds, for decades. Many in this community have worked over the years to bring the park up to the state that it is currently in, and now are seeing the park taken over by an outside bike club.

� ere has been no e� ort to work with those of us in the commu-

nity. We have waited all sum-mer and fall to hear back from Mr. David Kimmett (King County Parks) re-garding the comment forms

we � lled out a� er the June 20 meeting; we have been wait-

ing for an environmental impact study to be done, for an arborist to consult about the rare stand of Madrona trees that the park is blessed with.

We in the community have also been waiting for any form of communication from this com-mittee. � ere have been no further public meetings, public notices of

construction or responses to our many and varied concerns.

We have written com-ments, emailed the parks department, written letters to the Kirkland Re-porter and still no word. However, there seems to be word getting to the excited members of the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance, because they show up at pre-arranged times to dig, chop, haul and transform certain trails however they see � t.

� e democratic pro-cess has been thwarted. � ere have been voices of dissent, letters and emails written, and there has been nothing done to ad-dress these valid concerns. � ere has been no voting or hearings or notice, but there has been an awful lot of digging, cutting and re-arranging happening. Frankly, I � nd it a little

embarrassing for the bike club. What an awful job of public relations. I am beginning to feel that this park was much more enjoyable without all these bikers around.Elizabeth Yori, Kirkland

Big Finn Hill Park process mis-characterized

I served as a volunteer on the Big Finn Hill Trails Committee set up to work with King County Parks on a trail plan for Big Finn Hill Park. � e commit-tee consists of residents of Finn Hill, Bothell, Kenmore and Kirkland, as well as hikers, dog walkers and mountain bikers. Two committee members are on the Finn Hill Neigh-borhood Alliance board.

Ms. Yori’s and Mr. Cash’s recent letters com-

pletely mis-characterize the process that unfolded during 2012-2013. � ere was nothing “closed-circuit” about this, from start to � nish. Finn Hill neighbors and parks sta� posted notices all over the park announcing the very � rst meet-ing in June, 2012, as well as the last public meeting held June 20, 2013. In between times, the trail commit-tee meetings were open to the public, and the committee and parks sta� made progress reports to well-attended general meetings of the Finn Hill Neighborhood Alliance. A board member also posted a progress report on their website while the commit-tee was meeting.

� e � nal version of the trails plan adopted by King County Parks in August re� ects extensive input from the commu-

nity at large as well as the work of the commit-tee. � e plan calls for the park’s existing character to be maintained, for repair/restoration of areas where

illegal trail-building activity has occurred

in the past (a major reason for doing the plan in the � rst place), and clear

designation of trails where bike-related

features will and will not occur (all trails remain open to everyone).

Projects done so far

include one trail im-provement on a walker-oriented trail, one on a bike-oriented trail, and two work parties restoring and enhancing walker-oriented trails. All of the work done has been approved by King County Parks a� er detailed on-site review, as called for by the trail plan. I understand King County Parks has responded to Ms. Yori’s past emails. I asked them to forward her my contact information so that if she wishes, we can meet

on-site to discuss her concerns.Tom Fitzpatrick, Kenmore

Two of the last three seasons have ended in Tacoma at the

hands of Bellarmine Prep for the Bothell High School football team. So the law of averages would say that the Cougars had a good chance of beating the Lions and advance in the state playoffs Satur-day. Bothell took their recent playoff rival to the limit but one big intercep-tion broke the Cougars’ collective hearts in over-time, losing 20-17.

Prep looked to have all the momentum early, tak-ing a 10-0 lead with the aid of a packed stadium.

But Bothell fought back with a score just before halftime, as Cougar quarterback Ross Bow-ers found Dayzell Wilson for a 10-yard touchdown pass.

Bothell took the lead, as running back Sam McPherson scored the first points of the second half from two-yards out. The junior finished the day with 104 yards rush-ing.

A Rilyn Gherardini field goal from 20-yards out gave Bothell a 17-10 lead. The Cougars could not hold Prep, though, as they scored the game ty-ing touchdown just before the end of regulation.

In overtime, Bothell drove the length of the field just to have the win taken away on an incep-tion. Bellarmine Prep would earn the right to advance to the state semifinals with a 37-yard field goal.

For Bothell, the loss came on the heels of a

blowout win during the round of 16 and one of McPherson’s best games of the season.

Bothell beats Graham-Kapowsin

The Cougars faced one of its biggest tests of the season on Nov. 15 against Graham-Kapowsin. After all, the Eagles entered the game undefeated at 10-0 and were ranked No. 3 in the state.

But someone forgot to tell McPherson that the defense on the other side of the field was one of the best in the state. McPher-son shredded the Eagles for 297-yards rushing and four touchdowns, as Bothell advanced to the round of eight with a 52-28 victory at Art Crate Stadium in Spanaway.

Whipping wind and rain made any offense through the air difficult, but Bothell scored its first

touchdown on a five-yard pass from Bowers to Ryan Knight.

That 7-0 lead doubled just when it looked like the Eagle defense might bury Bothell. Precari-ously perched on their own two-yard line, Bowers handed the ball to McPherson in an at-tempt to just push the ball out a few yards. But McPherson’s churning and anxious legs behind the line of scrimmage were freed, as the Bothell sideline roared to life and he galloped 98 yards for the touchdown.

The Eagles kept pace, scoring a touchdown with a 20-yard pass on their ensuing possession. Bothell responded with a 35-yard touchdown pass of its own from Bowers to Wilson.

The Cougars built a 28-7 lead just before half-time on a six-yard touch-down run by McPherson.

Graham-Kapowsin

looked to have some new life after the break, driv-ing down field and scor-ing on a six-yard run by Teague James. James, one of the best running backs in the state, finished the game with 240-yards rushing.

But this day was McPherson’s. The junior exploded out of the back field on the Cougars’ next possession and sprinted 63 yards for a touchdown, deflating any residual excitement from the Eagle players.

A 46-yard field goal from Gheradini to open the third quarter pushed the Bothell advantage to 38-14. McPherson also showed he can catch as well as run, scoring on a 50-yard pass play from Bowers.

The final score of the game for Bothell came from Damani St. Johns-Watkins on a 23-yard run. The score pushed Both-ell’s advantage to 52-14.

Graham-Kapowsin would score two more touchdowns before the end of the game but it would be too little too late.

Bothell finishes the 2013 campaign with a 9-3 overall record. The team only lost one game during the regular season and lost to Skyline for the 4A KingCo title. The Cou-gars have a bright future, as they only started three seniors this season.

lettus commits to Montana

The University of Montana softball team has announced the sign-ing of six new players including Tori Lettus of Bothell.

Lettus, who is a senior at Woodinville High, will have the distinction of being the program’s first commitment, and she wasn’t a tough sell. Her dad, Ray, is a Montana native and UM graduate, and her older sister, Sara, is a 2007 graduate of the university who still lives in Missoula.

Western Montana is also home to a number of Lettus’s aunts, uncles and cousins.

“When I start school next fall, it will feel like I’m coming home,” she said.

far west as California, south as Texas and as far east as Massachusetts.

Karlinsey and Mayor Da-vid Baker spoke about the city’s top goals, all related to economic development, and ways to catalyze that devel-opment - including listening to the business community.

“I’m really impressed with what they’ve done here with economic development and reaching out to their busi-ness community,” Federal Way City Councilwoman Susan Honda told the Reporter following the pre-sentation. “They went out to their business community instead of waiting for their business community to come to them. I’m hoping we can do something like that in Federal Way.”

Kelly Maloney, also a Federal Way City Council member, said Kenmore offi-cials have a “very collabora-tive spirit. The way that they reach out is really refreshing and it’s something that we’ve wanted for a very long time. Right now, we think Federal Way is in a position to be able to do some of the stuff that Kenmore is doing.”

One of those things Kenmore is doing includes maximizing its unique as-sets, such as Bastyr Univer-sity, a globally-respected institution of natural health arts and sciences. The city is working to form a “health sciences innovation zone” in Kenmore, Karlinsey said.

“We want to be known as the epicenter of health science innovation,” he said, noting Assistant City Manger Nancy Ousley has forged several partner-ships with Bastyr, service providers and naturopathic doctors. “She’s gotten these people talking to each other where they haven’t been able to get out in the community as much in the past.”

Maloney said that Federal Way city officials are looking to put together a sort of innovation zone much like Kenmore’s, only in a differ-ent sector.

Kenmore also “cultivates economic gardening” by helping its businesses to grow.

“We have felt very, very strongly that we want to help our businesses in our city grow,” Baker said. “I mean, it’s easy to go out to a neighboring city and try to steal a business away and of-fer them all these attractive things and before you know it, you’ve got another city trying to steal your business away from you. So what we wanted to do was take our own existing businesses and do what we can do to help.”

For example, the city

recently launched a pilot business incubator pro-gram that is currently the headquarters of three tech start-ups, Baker said.

One of those companies is Cookoo Watch company, which was started by former Microsoft employee Peter Hauser, who is making a Bluetooth device for wrist watches that commu-nicates with smart-phones, Baker said.

The other two companies include a video game de-velopment company, Exato Game Studios, and Synch, which provides mobile inventory and order-ing solutions for distribu-tors and manufacturers via a smartphone app. Synch began as a pilot program in Kenya with a nonprofit that quickly distributed one mil-lion pounds of food during a humanitarian crisis.

The incubator program provides low-cost office space and business opera-tions assistance to accelerate businesses in the technol-ogy, life sciences and other sectors.

During the two-year program, the city will invest about $150,000 into the incubator, Karlinsey said.

“We see it as an invest-ment and we see it as a way to promote the city,” he added. “An incubator has been a great way to send a message, loud and clear, to the greater business com-munity that Kenmore lays out the red carpet to bring in new businesses and the word gets out about us.”

J Davis, mayor pro tem of

Greenbelt, Md. said her city is very similar to Kenmore. Greenbelt has a population of 23,000 and also employs a council-manager form of government.

“I’m very impressed with their business economic de-velopment plan,” Davis said. “I wrote down a lot of things because we’ve decided that

we just can’t wait and have business come

to us; we have to really start doing something about it. So, listening to what

[Kenmore] has done, we have a slightly different

funding mechanism, but the plan is good.”

Davis said she plans to bring the ideas she learned from the mobile workshop back to her own Council.

Other city officials were surprised at Kenmore’s operations.

Gregory Zilka, mayor of Avon Lake, Ohio, noted that the city of Kenmore has a biennial budget of about $49 million and a staff of 29 full-time employees.

“In my city, we have about a $15 million a year budget, which would equate to $30 million for two years. We have 113 employees,” Zilka told the Reporter following the event. He noted that his city’s utilities are handled by a separate board that has its own budget and generates funds through utility rates. “I’m just trying to equate the difference with [a popula-tion of] 21,000 people and that size budget, if Kenmore is taking care of all the utili-ties, that does make sense, but I just can’t believe that

they can operate on just 29 people - that’s astounding.”

Zilka said the city of Avon Lake, which has a popula-tion of 23,000, employs nearly 60 police and fire personnel, as well as 30 staff members.

“Then looking at $49 mil-lion for two years but again, they’re including utilities. So it’s apples to oranges,” said Zilka. “But then they said they paid cash for this very nice building; we don’t pay cash for our buildings but we have a solid financial situation.”

Karlinsey said the city of Kenmore saves money by contracting out its police and fire services.

“We like this contracting model because it keeps our overhead costs down,” said Karlinsey, noting that a re-cent study showed contract-ing out for police services saved the city of Kenmore $1 million per year. “I had

an in-house police depart-ment in my last city and that consumes so much of your time that is now freed up for me here in Kenmore and I get to spend it on other things like economic development.”

He said the trade-off is that the city has to give up

some local control with services, however, that “hasn’t been that much of a problem for us.”

During the event, the group ate lunch that was provided by Bastyr Uni-versity. The officials then went to the university for a campus tour.

IHS swim takes sixth at state

The Inglemoor High School girls swim and dive team placed sixth in state during the cham-pionship meet held the King County Aquatic Center on Nov. 16.

The team was led by Kayla Roberson, who placed second in the 200-yard freestyle and third in the 100-yard breaststroke. Roberson’s time in the breaststroke qualified her for an All-American consideration time.

Sage Speak also placed fourth in 100-yard free-style.

The 200-yard med-ley relay team of Em-ily Chapple, Roberson, Calista Skog and Speak and 400-yard freestyle relay, comprised of Rob-erson, Skog, Liza Panova and Speak, both placed sixth during the meet.

BHS finishes eighth at state

The Bothell High School volleyball team did not start the state tournament on the right note. An early loss put the team into the consola-tion bracket, but the team fought back to place eight overall in Lacey, Wash. on Nov. 22-23.

The Cougars lost dur-ing the first round to Kentwood 3-1 on Friday. Cassidy Olcese led the defense during the con-test with 21 digs, while teammate Reese Laufasa had 21 assists.

Bothell bounced back against Eisenhower High School with a 3-1 victory of their own. Individual stats were not available for this match.

The Cougars continued their overall momentum with a 3-1 win against Spanaway Lake, despite losing the first game, 25-23. The Cougars recovered to take the next three games 25-22, 25-16 and 25-21. Bothell was led by Laufasa with 42 assists and 15 digs, while teammate Karly Ernster finished with 30 digs and 13 kills. Hailey Crane led the team with 22 kills and five blocks.

The final match of the tournament for the Cou-gars saw the team from Bothell take on the King-Co rival Skyline, who they had lost to during the regular season, 3-0, while amassing just 38 points. Bothell improved on their regular season results but still lost 3-0, despite scoring 50 overall points. Bothell was led by Laufasa with 18 assists.

The shootout went the Bear’s way on a 4-2 advantage after finishing 90 minutes of play tied 1-1.

Olympia took the 1-0 lead just after halftime but Ingle-moor tied the game during the 57th minute, as Emma Spencer scored unassisted.

Inglemoor’s Abby Morrow and Simone Gunsolus scored the Vikings’ shootout goals.

Three BHS seniors sign National Letters

� ree Bothell High School athletes celebrated signing Na-tional Letters of Intent to play college athletics on Nov. 20.

Josh Martin, Reece Laufasa and Daniel Fredrickson signed their letters during a ceremony held at the high school before classes with friends, family and coaches.

Bothell High School senior Josh Martin signed to play basketball at the University

of Minnesota next year. � e 6-foot-7 senior made his deci-sion to play for the Golden Gophers in September. Martin was highly recruited by Florida State, Oklahoma State and Pittsburgh.

Martin averaged 11.8 points and 8.2 rebounds as a junior for the Cougars a� er transfer-ring from Seattle Prep. Martin also shot 50 percent last sea-son, helping the Cougars to the state tournament and earned All-State honors.

Fredrickson, a senior, will play baseball this spring for the Cougars before taking his tal-

ents to Washington State Uni-versity in the fall of 2014. As a junior, Fredrickson hit .347 and helped lead the Cougars to the state tournament.

Laufasa is the setter for the Bothell High School volleyball team and signed to play with Northern Arizona University. Laufasa had 337 assists this season for the Cougars, leading the team deep into the District tournament with a 13-14 record. Laufasa transferred from Juanita High School last year and also played for the club team Sudden Impact Vol-leyball.

Bothell High School held a celebration on Wednesday morning for three athletes who signed National Letters of Intent to play college athletics. From left, Daniel Fredrickson, BHS baseball coach Paul Moody, Theresa Laufasa, BHS volleyball coach Marlie Davis and Josh Martin and BHS basketball coach Ron Bollinger. CONTRIBUTED
