The Northshore School District Board of Directors

approved a ballot measure to fund the building of a new high school in north

Bothell during its meeting on Oct. 8.

Board members voted 4-1 to move forward with the plan for a $177.5 mil-lion bond measure mainly to build a new high school, along with an education maintenance and op-

erations levy and a capital technology levy.

“� is is kind of the end of a very involved process,” said Northshore School District (NSD) Superinten-dent Larry Francois, who has met with residents and community leaders during

the past year to answer questions about the issue.

If voters approve the measure in February, the district would go forward with grade level recon-� guration throughout the district.

For taxpayers, the mea-

sures would replace the expiring bond and levies.

A home valued at $400,000 in 2013 will pay an annual tax rate of $2,116. In 2014, that rate would increase by $20 with an expected home valuation

Fussy babies, no sleep, disobedient kids - these are some of the things Nadya Tesar and her group of church friends have grumbled about.

But her good friend Krys-tal Warwick - a mother-of-three with a terminal brain tumor - has helped them to put their lives into perspec-

tive. “She said, ‘I’d love to go

back to that, these things are going to � y by - enjoy these moments,’” Tesar recalled. “It’s helped us gain perspec-tive and enjoy our little kids and everything that comes with them.”

Warwick was diagnosed with oligoastrocytoma, a rare and debilitating type of brain tumor, in 2011. Doctors

recently told Warwick she has a 10 percent chance of beating the disease and last month she was placed on hospice care.

Tesar is now rallying the community to participate in an event she created to support Warwick. � e 5 kilometer walk/run event, called “War Against Brain Tumors” will take place at 10 a.m. on Nov. 2 at Blythe Park

in Bothell. “I came up with that name

[for the event] because her last name is Warwick, but also because this really is a war,” she said.

Tesar, who is also a moth-er-of-three, met Warwick about � ve years ago at Mars Hill Church in Shoreline.

“We support each other and help each other through our struggles,” Tesar said of

their women’s group. She recalled thinking

about Warwick when she went into labor with her third child, who is now 4 months old.

“She would get so excited to go into labor, which is crazy. She saw it as empower-ing. She sees things di� er-ently than most people do.”

Bothell Chilifest brews up competition for charityBY MATT PHELPS

[email protected]

This is the sev-enth year that Dale Amundsen

of Bothell’s Evergreen Washelli funeral home has fielded the same question: “Can I trust the meat?” The idea of a chili competition at a funeral home can be off-putting for some - until they taste the chili.

“It is a death defy-ing experience,” jokes Amundsen.

But nearly 150 people enjoyed various types of chili, sweets, drinks and the company of neighbors for two hours during the seventh annual Chilifest Thursday night at the funeral home.

“It started out as a way to say, ‘we are not stuffy,’” said Amundsen. “We are apart of the community and we can have fun.”

There was no lack of laughter or a festive atmosphere. Many of the 11 cooks dressed up in Halloween costumes and dressed up their table.

Lacie Ferris of Bothell

Physical Therapy donned a mustache and purple antennas as she dished up her “smokey” chili concoction.

“I love making chili,” said Ferris. “And this is a great benefit.”

The contest has a limit of 15 entries each year for a very important reason.

“Somewhere between 15-17 crockpots we blow out the circuit,” said Amundsen.

All of the cooks are

members of Great Bothell Chamber of Commerce, which helps organize the event that donates pro-ceeds to Hopelink.

“I spoke to them and the donations and food we raised came to around $875 this year but that is a round number,” said Amundsen.

The event is free to all. The only cost is a $1 to vote for the best chili.

Christina Parish of Kenmore Self Storage

won the People’s Choice award for her chili called “The Witch’s Brew.” She received a red garnet necklace donated by Olsen Design Jewelers in Bothell. The Burnt Spoon, given to the best hot chili, and Judges Choice awards went to John and Shelli Hugg of Hugg and As-sociates in Bothell.

The Most Creative award went to Amund-sen’s wife Wendy for her Sweet Maui Chili.

The Green Bean award, for the best vegetarian chili, went to Dawn Spie-gelberg of Bodywise for her “Chili-Dawn-Carne.”

Richard Olsen, of Olsen Design Jewlers, and his wife Susan Gardner took home the best marketing award. The Reporter staff received the Best Person-ality award.

Ingredients consisted of everything from chicken, bacon and beef, to vegetables, hot spices and even peanut butter. Representatives from the Woodinville Costco also participated, bringing free beverages for tasters to wash down the chili.

nual “Haunted Trails” is returning for another year of spooky fun. Hosted in the forest behind Bastyr University’s Kenmore campus, the event begins tonight and tomorrow and continues Oct. 25-26. One of the biggest scarefests in the area includes fright-fully enjoyable activities for teenagers and adults, as well as trick-or-treating for children ages 8 and younger.

when the Haunted Trails open from 7-11 p.m. each Friday and Saturday night. Cost is $20 per person.

Tickets are available in advance at HauntedTrails.org or at the door starting at 6:30 p.m. Please note that a limited number of tickets are sold each night. � e second weekend of Haunted Trails is very busy and tickets can sell out as early as 8:45 p.m. For tick-ets and more information visit www.hauntedtrails.org.

Halloween block party in Kenmore

Cedar Park Northshore Church in Kenmore will be hosting a community Halloween event at the church from 5:30-8:30 p.m. on Oct. 31. � e event will be free to the public and feature carnival games, candy, ra� e drawings, hotdogs, BBQ chicken, fresh doughnuts, popcorn and hot chocolate. In addi-tion, the Northshore Fire Department will have a � re engine there for the kids to check out. A compli-mentary ticket for a ra� e

drawing will be given for any donation of non-per-ishable food to be given to the church’s food bank. � e church is located at 18737 68th Ave. N.E. For more information, contact Amy Bolen at 425-205-0934.

Halloween candy buy back

When Halloween is over children o� en have too much candy. Chan Orthodontics will put its money where a child’s mouth is with a Hallow-een candy buy back at its Bothell o� ce from 2-6 p.m. on Nov. 6.

For more infor-mation, call 425-485-9332.

[ TREATS from page 1] increase of $28,000.

During the course of the new measures, the tax rate would increase on average of $62.20 per year during the four years. � at same $400,000 home in 2013 will increase in value to $481,718 in 2018. � e tax rate is based on the value of the home. � e rate per $1,000 of assessed value will actually decrease from $5.29 in 2013 to $4.95 in 2018.

� e ballot mea-sure would raise $200 million from taxpayers between 2015-18 for the education mainte-nance and operations levy and $32 million for the capital technology levy.

� e new 250,000-square-foot high school would be built on the 61-acre property north and west of Fernwood Elementary School that the district purchased in 2012. It would accommodate 1,500-1,600 students. Construction could begin in spring of 2014, with the opening of the new high school and grade recon� guration slated for fall of 2017. � is year’s � � h-graders would attend

their freshman year at the new 9-12 grade level high school.

� e estimated cost for the new high school is $130 million, with $17 million of the bond going toward the completion of Woodinville High School’s renovation.

“We struggled to � gure out what are the necessary

projects that we have to include,” said Francois. “� e tipping point for the board was the � nal phase of the Woodinville High School remodel.”

Francois said that the board wanted

to keep the promise that the rebuild would be com-pleted in three phases.

� e rest of the bond money would go towards vari-ous maintenance projects around the district, such as replacing old roofs and boilers.

� e need for the new high school is linked to exponential growth in the north end of Bothell. As of spring 2011, the NSD predicted more than 3,300 new housing units in vari-ous stages of completion.

Overall, the district’s enrollment is down from

a high point in 2005, but it has been trending upwards since 2008. � e most con-servative estimates show that the NSD area will add more than 15,000 residents by 2020. � e 2010 census showed 122,684 residents within the district’s bound-aries.

� e district’s Enrollment Demographics Task Force (EDTF) began studying the issue two years ago. � e EDTF is a 15-member task force. It recommended last October that the district build a new high school, as opposed to building a new elementary school at a lower cost and smaller capacity, to remedy the overcrowding issue.

But the high school alone would not remedy the

overcrowding issues. � e grade level recon� guration would bring the district to a K-5 el-

ementary, 6-8 middle and 9-12 high schools

alignment and imple-ment associated boundary adjustments.

Northshore and Puyal-lup are the only remaining large school districts in the state with a K-6, 7-9 and 10-12 grade level con� gu-ration.

Authorities are looking for a suspect who allegedly as-saulted a homeless man with a baseball bat in Kenmore on Tuesday night.

� e incident caused quite

a stir on Northeast Bothell Way, as King County Sheri� deputies responded to the Chevron in the 800th block in force.

“When we arrived we contacted a 20-year-old man who was bleeding from the right side of his face,” said

King County Sheri� ’s O� ce spokesperson Cindi West. “� e man is homeless and said he had slept a few nights in an abandoned � retruck near the 8300 block of North-east 175th Street.”

� e victim told Sheri� ’s deputies that he had le� some

of his belongings in the truck and went back to get them.

“When he got to the truck a white male, whom he did not know, jumped out of the truck and struck him in the face with a baseball bat,” said West. “� e victim ran to the Chevron and called 911.”

Sheri� ’s deputies conduct-ed a K-9 search that, accord-ing to witnesses, stretched

east to Wayne Golf Course and west down Northeast Bothell Way to 68th Avenue Northeast. West said that the deputies did not locate the suspect.

� e victim described the man as a white male, 18 to 22 years old, approximately 5-foot, 10-inches tall, 140 to 160 pounds.

“He had long but groomed

blonde/brown hair and was wearing a red hoody sweat-shirt,” said West.

� e victim was taken to Harborview Medical Center with a possible broken jaw.

Anyone with information about the assault is urged to call the King County Sheri� ’s O� ce at 206-263-9133.

Williams, Hirt vie for EvergreenHealth board seatBY RAECHEL DAWSON

[email protected]

Vice chair of the Ev-ergreen Healthcare Foundation Kinnon

W. Williams is taking on longtime incumbent Rebecca Hirt for the EvergreenHealth board of commissioners position No. 2 seat this November.

Williams said the board needs fresh blood and new leadership for the publicly-elected position.

“I have a di� erent background and I would be replacing someone whose entire career has been at the hospital,” said Williams, who lives in Bothell and has raised more than $30,000 in campaign funds, accord-ing to the Public Disclosure Commission. “I think we need somebody with a wider range of experience.”

Williams is an attorney at his self-owned company Williams & Williams, PSC and has served as an elected Northshore Utility District commissioner for 14 years.

But Hirt, who lives in Kirkland and has raised around $1,800 for campaign-ing, said her nearly 30 years of experience on the board of commissioners proves her commitment to the health of the EvergreenHealth com-munity.

“My commitment to the health of this community started as an employee when Evergreen had 76 beds,” Hirt said in the King County voters’ pamphlet. “I have knowledge of health care, a complex industry, and the experience needed to make di� cult decisions facing the board in a constantly chang-ing environment.”

Hirt opened the Ever-greenHealth Midwifery Care to provide mothers with other options during her time with the board. She also co-chairs the board quality committee.

As a public hospital district, EvergreenHealth Medical Center is governed by � ve commissioners. Com-missioner District position No. 2 represents the cities of Kirkland and Kenmore and is expected to make decisions on the hospital’s budget, policy and hiring the CEO, among other duties.

With an uncertain future in health care reform, Wil-liams and Hirt believe an increase of insured patients will greatly impact the hospital.

Williams believes the hospital could play a bigger role in preventative care by

focusing on proper nutrition or alternative forms of treat-ment, such as chiropractic or midwifery care, so that costs are reduced and people aren’t forced to go to the extreme.

“We could be more trans-parent in our billing process to patients, and through pre-ventative care maybe we can cut down costs,” Williams said. “Whether people like it or not, public hospitals are taking care of people without insurance.”

And as more people get health insurance, the likeli-hood of those people using emergency care clinics will increase, while those who use the emergency room for issues that could have been prevented will decrease, he continued.

Hirt expects the in� ux of insured patients will call for an increase in demand

for primary care physicians, which in turn, she said, could lead to problems of access.

“If re-elected, I will strong-ly support the recruitment of well quali� ed family practice physicians and internists, both those employed by Ev-ergreenHealth and indepen-dent primary care practices,” Hirt said.

Although, Hirt claims she’ll keep taxes low at a time when “revenues [are] decreasing and costs [are] increasing,” Williams said he is ba� ed that she would make such a statement.

Williams explains that total revenue has actually increased throughout the last few years - $807 million in 2010 to $1 billion in 2012.

And furthermore, tax rates have bounced around between that time at 30 cents per $1,000 to 51 cents per $1,000, he said. But despite it all, “taxes account for 2.5 percent of the budget” and

are “sort of irrelevant to the budgeting,” according to Williams.

“You have raised taxes consistently, but the bottom line is the taxes are such a minor part of the whole budget, you aren’t going to get any control out of it,” Williams said, adding he believes the hospital could be self-sustaining without taxes and that the cost of medical care is the issue at hand.

But Hirt said she’ll support quality of care and reduce wasted time and resources in all areas, which “has proven to decrease costs.”

Hirt, who received a bachelor’s degree in medical technology from Ohio State University and an M.B.A. in � nance and marketing from the University of Washing-ton, has been endorsed by Rep. Larry Springer and Rep. Roger Goodman.

As another election day approach-es, incumbents seeking reelection and challengers seeking to hold public o� ce are drawing the lines between right and wrong, as they see it.

� ey all bring their varied back-grounds, life experiences, perspec-tives and passions to their campaign platforms. Both incumbents and chal-lengers contend that they are correct in their views and their opponents are wrong. Both see the “issues” of the city or other government body di� er-ently, and wholeheartedly believe their perspective is not only right but the only way a reasonable individual would think and believe.

O� en voters are confused by candidates’ charges and countercharges. How are voters to judge?

� ose seeking an elected position run on the premise that the govern-ing body is not being run correctly, a change is needed and they are the answers to bring this change. Too o� en, they come with a burning issue and have no knowledge of the rest of the story on that issue. � ey are un-aware of the history of what has been tried or accomplished or is scheduled to occur. � ey do not know the local, state and federal regulations that restrict or require action by the sta� or governing body. And they have not fully listened to and analyzed oppos-ing viewpoints.

What are these candidates’ motives and mission? Many come under the guise of “Why aren’t you (the incum-bent or sta� ) using the best practices as outlined by so and so to run your operation,” never looking into who actually uses these best practices in

the region they live in or the sur-rounding communities.

Many � le to run with the anticipa-tion that once they are elected they will be able to single-handedly � re a member of the sta� , change a policy or regulation and lead the city into a “glorious future” without the bene� t of working with others.

Some contend on the basis that their everyday work experience in

the private sector can be used in public arena in the same way – lawyers wanting to be lawyers, accountants wanting to be accountants, not un-derstanding what the roles of members of a policy-making board really are. Some come into the “political arena” a short time before � ling for

election and run campaigns as if they know better how to manage a city than those with years of experience in that function. � ese candidates would do things “their way.”

For those seeking re-election, the past speaks volumes regarding their contributions, accomplishments, ac-tions or words. Does the record show evidence of working together for the common good, or making the hard decisions as a member of a policy board and living with those hard decisions?

Or does the incumbent’s record in o� ce indicate negativity and the inability to work together as a team member? Do they promote their private agendas or consider them-selves to have greater knowledge or experience than highly quali� ed and dedicated sta� ? Have they gained the respect of the policy board members while “down in the trenches” � ght-ing through the everyday battles all

boards are confronted with? How do they respond when on the losing side of an issue? As individual’s living in a glass bowl, have their lives been transparent and worthy of the trust of their constituents?

Both incumbents and challengers seek to be elected by constituents that too o� en look to a neighbor, friend, political party or endorsement list to determine whom to vote for.

Too many vote according to how someone else tells them to vote with-out any knowledge of the issues the candidates support or oppose. � ey don’t take the time to do the research for themselves. Some make their decisions based on one issue and vote accordingly, forgetting there are other issues just as important on the table but these are discarded for the sake of the one issue.

Other voters decide on the basis of the candidate’s brief write-ups in voter pamphlets. Most voters do not know the candidates or what they stand for, yet these voters consider themselves educated and knowledgeable about the issues and the candidates.

� e right to vote was given to us at the founding of our great nation. � e following statement was found when I

did a Google searched the Preamble of the U.S. Constitution: “� e Consti-tution has kept liberty safe by giving the people the right to vote. We, the people, have the right to select our leaders to help make our laws. And, we are also able to take the power away from our leaders, if we feel it is necessary.”

Above all the rhetoric, clamor, lies, distortions and loss of faith, Ameri-cans have a basic right. � at is, no matter what, they have the right to be wrong in whom they decide to vote for in the upcoming election. No one can force them to elect candidates who are the best quali� ed to make policy decisions and who have the best interests of their constituents at heart.

However, I ask that you, as a voter, take the time to research the issues and candidates’ backgrounds. � en vote wisely on the basis of this knowledge. Also, vote with passion for the betterment of your city, state and nation and become involved in civic a� airs. Our future depends on an educated electorate.

Booth cares about public safety

� e Reporter’s Sept. 6 editorial in which you asked drivers to “slow down and obey the 20 mph speed limit in school zones” resonates deeply with us who live on a residen-tial street in a school zone.

Steve Booth is committed to calm-ing the tra� c e� ectively, not only in school zones, but throughout all other residential neighborhoods in Bothell adversely a� ected by speeding, cut-through tra� c. � e reason is that a priority of his campaign is public safety.

Booth received the most votes in the primary cam-paign and earned a broad range of endorsements. Besides being trustworthy, hardworking and knowledgeable, he is fair-minded and o� ers a bal-anced approach toward Bothell’s envi-ronment and economic development for a sustainable future. As a resident and a member of the Downtown

Stakeholders Resource Group, I sup-port Booth for Bothell City Council Position 5 and urge everyone to vote for him in the November general elec-tion. � ank you.Carol Thomas, Bothell

Hendrickson grossly misleads the public

In the Sept. 6 Reporter, John Hendrickson, who failed to win re-election to the Kenmore City Council in 2011, charges that I grossly misled the public. Yet it is he who misleads.

Yes, I have supported Allan Van Ness’s and Laurie Sperry’s

campaigns since they � rst ran for City Council in 2005 - because they have proved to be positive, e� ective public servants. I am a 52-year Kenmore

resident, and I frequently attend council meetings. My wife and I raised three children who graduated from Northshore schools. I was PTA president and coached Little League

for years. I am a retired attorney with an undergraduate degree in business law and an emphasis in accounting and am well aware of generally ac-cepted accounting principles.

Hendrickson is not a CPA and therefore is not under the authority of the Washington State Board of Accountancy. � e links he uses as “proof” of his charges against the city are spreadsheets and documents he prepared. He takes a few facts as he sees them and spins his own version of history.

� e truth is that Councilman Van Ness consistently cautioned against the proposed City Hall in 2007 and 2008. Hendrickson was silent. Van Ness felt that the project was too big and expensive and that Kenmore’s economic future was uncertain. He met with the Uplake group numer-ous times, encouraging them in their campaign to limit the size and cost of the new City Hall. Meanwhile, a larger group of Kenmore citizens strongly lobbied for structured park-ing, green construction and building

for the future. � e Council weighed all citizen concerns.

� e Uplake group did not force a rebid of the project in 2008. Rather, the rapidly declining economy and status of the construction industry caused the city to void the original $15 million construction contract with the sole bidder and to request new bids. Of the 13 new bids, the winning one was for $8.5 million. Van Ness then favored the new construc-tion. Investing in the building became a better option than leaving the cash in the bank, earning little interest. Construction was completed on time and under budget, and the city paid cash. Furthermore, the building earned a LEED Gold environmental certi� cation.

� e closure of the King County Sheri� North Precinct meant Ken-more police needed a new home. � ey moved into the extra space in Kenmore’s new City Hall. Had this space not been available, our police would have to travel to the city of

investment. I am pleased that the City Council was able to obtain funding for the next phase of State Route 522 from 65th to 61st Avenue Northeast. It was one of the few projects that received money

for construction in the last year. Our Council deserves credit for their work in obtaining state and federal grants of $8.8 million, which completes the funding of this phase of the project.I urge citizens to read letters to the editor with caution and to critically evaluate claims, considering the author’s background and motivation.

facts, or are they independently veri� able? I also urge citizens to focus on real issues, not on what happened years ago.Bill Roetcisoender, Kenmore

Stoltzfus letter promotes religious discrimination | LetterI was disappointed to read the promotion of religious discrimination in the letter from Susan Stoltzfus published by the Bothell Reporter in the Oct. 4 edition. � e letter basically stated

that because a person has worked in a religious school and ascribed themselves to certain religious beliefs they should not be considered for a public position or o� ce. I fail to see how an individuals personal religious choices and convictions means that individual would not “help all students, without regard to their religious beliefs or sexual orientation,”

as the author of the letter claimed. It is unfortunate that the author chose to ignore the part of the Community Covenant of Northwest University which states “we endeavor that all of our interactions and communications will show respect for the wellbeing of all, especially those who may disagree with us … Furthermore, we recognize the value of diverse opinions and that unity does not require unanimity.” Is the Bothell Reporter really a platform for this kind of discriminatory nonsense?

� ank you for your consideration.Daniel Roth, Bothell

Majority of Booth’s contributions come from special interestsAs Bothell residents prepare to elect our new city council member, one might think it matters little where the candidates are getting the money to fund their campaigns. Yet the

city council makes many decisions that can a� ect special interests. A comparison of the contributions to Steve Booth and Tris Samberg, not including their and their spouse’s money, is quite revealing. Based on data available from the Public

Disclosure Commission (www.pdc.ws.gov) through Oct. 6, 52 percent of Booth’s contributions have come from individuals not living in Bothell – why should they care? � en 28 percent comes from businesses, political action committees, city employee unions and other special interests. � at leaves less than 21 percent coming from residents of Bothell.

Booth’s special interest backers include the Bothell and Woodinville � re� ghters unions. Why would they care? Because the Bothell City Council is considering turning our Fire Department over to another agency where we will not have control over our � re and life safety services. Another is Republic Services – the garbage hauler. Are they planning to try to get the city contract away from Waste Management?

By contrast, fully 95 percent of Samberg’s cash contributions have come from Bothell residents.At all levels in this country we can see the corrupting in� uence of money in elections. Who will be free to look out for the interests of the citizens of Bothell? � e answer is

crystal clear: Tris Samberg.Bill Moritz, Bothell

Routinely bad procedures at Bothell Council meetings; vote for SambergOn Sept. 17, the Bothell City Council, led by Mayor Mark Lamb, exhibited a high level of disrespect for their fellow citizens and our legal government process when they voted

to initiate the process for abolishing the Shoreline Hearings Board. Unfortunately, this was yet another example of what has become routinely bad procedures at Bothell City Council meetings.

For 39 years, the Bothell Shoreline Hearings Board has played an important roll in dra� ing shoreline regulations for two key water bodies in the city of Bothell - the Sam-mamish River and North Creek. OUr extensive waterway trail system and our associated wetlands are a community asset enjoyed by thousands. Sta� ng requirements for the board are minimal except during the seven-year shoreline program review, the cost for which is born substantially by state grants.

Bothell advertised the vacancies for the board, scheduled, noti� ed and interviewed three candidates. On Sept. 17 the adopted agenda item was publicized for the appointment of three Shoreline Hearings Board members. However, this vote was aborted when Joshua Freed, with no prior notice, made a motion to consider elimination of the board.

� ree council members opposed the motion on procedural grounds. It was also argued that the vote was inappropriate at this � nal stage of the process. � e vote was three to three, a tie vote, which under Roberts Rules of Order is a failed vote. Mayor Lamb ruled the vote passed. When fellow council members raised a point of order to the council chair, Lamb’s response was to challenge his fellow council members who disagreed to “appeal” his decision - that the tie vote was valid.

Unfortunately, such procedures at Bothell City Council meetings are not a rarity. Disrespect for citizens, for fellow council members and for proper voting procedures occur at almost every public meeting. A new level of disregard was reached when the motion to consider eliminating the board was allowed to proceed with an illegal vote, no notice, during an agenda item for board appointments at the completion of the citizen application and interview process.

Bothell citizens who value their environment and their right for a respectful and legal governmental process should vote on Nov. 5 for an independent council representative. Tris Samberg is that person. Her opponent, Steve Booth, has been funded and endorsed by Mark Lamb and Joshua Freed.

Vote for a person who values citizen input and good government. Please vote. It counts.Ann Aagaard, Bothell

Bothell Council candidate Samberg stands for � scal responsibilityTris Samberg is the best-quali� ed candidate running for the Bothell City Council this term. She is responsible, knowledgeable and an excellent communicator. She has previous experience on the Bothell City Council and can begin working for the citizens of Bothell

immediately. Prior to her council experience, she served for 10 years on the Bothell Planning Commission, where she worked on many issues, including the Comprehensive Plan update, the critical areas ordinance and the Downtown Master Plan.

Even though Tris is not on the council at present, she is still engaged in the issues that the citizens of Bothell care about. As I campaigned with her recently, the issue of unfund-ed budget items continually came up. Most of my neighbors agreed that going into debt for extravagant new projects made no sense. � e council needs a balanced and indepen-dent voice so that it can set realistic goals that the citizens of Bothell can a� ord. Tris will provide that voice.

Sammamish to process their reports and be off Kenmore streets a good portion of the day.

Today, Kenmore has a great City Hall that will benefit the community for years to come. It is afford-able, sustainable and low maintenance with green technology and construc-tion ― a good investment.

I am pleased that the City Council was able to obtain funding for the next phase of State Route 522 from 65th to 61st Avenue Northeast. It was one of the few projects that received money for construction in the last year. Our Council deserves credit for their work in obtaining state and federal grants of $8.8 mil-lion, which completes the funding of this phase of the project.

I urge citizens to read let-ters to the editor with cau-tion and to critically evalu-ate claims, considering the author’s background and motivation. Are the state-ments a vindictive distor-tion of facts, or are they independently verifiable? I also urge citizens to focus on real issues, not on what happened years ago.Bill Roetcisoender, Kenmore

Stoltzfus letter promotes

religious discrimination

I was disappointed to read the promotion of religious discrimination in the letter from Susan Stoltzfus pub-lished by the Bothell Reporter in the Oct. 4 edition. The letter basically stated that because a person has worked in a religious school and as-cribed themselves to certain religious beliefs they should not be considered for a public position or office.

I fail to see how an indi-viduals personal religious choices and convictions means that individual would not “help all students, with-out regard to their religious beliefs or sexual orientation,” as the author of the letter claimed. It is unfortunate that the author chose to ignore the part of the Commu-nity Covenant of Northwest University which states “we endeavor that all of our interactions and communica-tions will show respect for the wellbeing of all, especially those who may disagree with us … Furthermore, we recognize the value of diverse opinions and that unity does not require unanimity.” Is the Bothell Reporter really a platform for this kind of discriminatory nonsense?

Thank you for your con-sideration.Daniel Roth, Bothell

Majority of Booth’s money from special interests

As Bothell residents prepare to elect our new city council member, one might think it matters little where the candidates are getting the money to fund their campaigns. Yet the city council makes many decisions that can affect special interests.

A comparison of the contributions to Steve Booth and Tris Samberg, not including their and their spouse’s money, is quite revealing. Based on data available from the Public Disclosure Com-mission (www.pdc.ws.gov) through Oct. 6, 52 percent of Booth’s contributions have come from individu-als not living in Bothell – why should they care? Then 28 percent comes from businesses, political action committees, city employee unions and other special interests. That leaves less than 21 percent coming from residents of Bothell.

Booth’s special inter-est backers include the Bothell and Woodinville firefighters unions. Why would they care? Because the Bothell City Council is considering turning our

Fire Department over to another agency where we will not have control over our fire and life safety ser-vices. Another is Republic Services – the garbage hauler. Are they plan-ning to try to get the city contract away from Waste Management?

By contrast, fully 95 percent of Samberg’s cash contributions have come from Bothell residents.

At all levels in this coun-try we can see the corrupt-ing influence of money in elections. Who will be free to look out for the interests of the citizens of Bothell? The answer is crystal clear: Tris Samberg.Bill Moritz, Bothell

Vote Booth for Bothell

I am writing in support of Steve Booth, candidate for Bothell City Coun-cil. Mr. Booth possesses superior knowledge of the issues facing the city of Bothell and its citizens. He has served in various and diverse capacities within our community and has been actively engaged in the issues we face.

His endorsements by prominent representatives such as Al O’Brien and Senator Rosemary McAu-liffe demonstrate the quality candidate he is.

I urge you to vote for Steve Booth for Bothell City Council.Susan Anderson, Bothell

O’Brien, Black honest residents

We are a small com-munity with a huge City Hall and a top-heavy staff while many of our chil-dren qualify for subsidized lunches. Yet, our Kenmore City Council increases staff salaries – and such favors are returned with expen-sive travel budgets and retreats. This council more directly voted itself lavish offices, and yet retreats and further insulates itself from residents’ and businesses’ concerns. Remember when residents pleaded for flood protection and businesses pleaded for viable access to State Route 522 during construction? The council’s response was sandbags and traffic cones - Bandaids to their failing policies.

We residents formed Kenmore with a vision quite different than our current reality of a staff that plays favorites through

wordplay and misinforma-tion. Exemptions from state laws are justified by such doublespeak as naming all manner of entities “public utilities” and “maintenance.” Kenmore’s driving force is government working for its own survival.

From three staff members during the first few years of our incorporation, the city staff has grown to more than 20, while our popula-tion has fluctuated little. We are a city of supervisors supervising supervisors and demanding not just high-end salaries, also retire-ment programs that grow exponentially.

As residents struggle with personal budgets, we must pay for this outsized staff for decades and suffer as a city with permit fees far more extensive and higher than Kirkland’s. Such fees make it difficult for residents to do home improvements and, perversely, the fees motivate the city to issue permits to subdivide sloping lots, which add to city-wide flooding. At one time, this valid issue was brought up by Bob Black; the council ignored it for years, except for Councilman John Hen-drickson who repeatedly objected to the city policies.

Hendrickson was also brave and correct the many times he warned us that city spending was being mis-managed and hidden taxes were on the rise. The city was granted enough funds to complete the renovation of SR-522 in a timely man-ner, yet the process dragged on, ruining businesses, with one-third of 522 in Kenmore left un-renovated due to cost overruns.

We now have a failing infrastructure and higher taxes.

Look at your increasing tax costs on just the Fron-tier phone bill. The council

chose Frontier because the increased taxes benefit the city coffers.

Hendrickson, under-standably, may not run again. Remember when Councilman Alan Van Ness told the Kenmore Reporter that the City Hall would cost $5 million, maybe $7 million? Henderickson corrected that misinforma-tion and paid for it in the past election with scathing personal attacks by Van Ness supporters.

Patrick O’Brien has like-wise been attacked by the supporters of the current council. You have all heard the city version exaggerated by political foes ad nau-seam, of Obrien’s “unsafe” grape arbor later converted to hold solar panels. You saw the photographs of that stout structure. The city did not have a solar permit policy, and city developer Debbie Bent wrote in an email that the city did not require a permit for solar panels. O’Brien’s solar panels were up for three years with a Washington State Labor and Industries electrical permit, and Puget Sound Energy issued a net metering agreement, yet the city decided after the fact that the panels needed a city permit and singled out O’Brien at a cost of $40,000 in city legal fees and personal monetary and reputation costs to O’Brien. Disagree with the city at your own peril. In politics, candidates cannot sue when the truth of what they have done or not done is deliberately mis-stated by political opponents, a strange law, and apparently when it comes to Kenmore city wordplay, there is not a fair day in court.

Ann Hurst, Kenmore

Rather than spend-ing all of their time � ghting diseases,

medical researchers should focus more on how we can enable an aging population to stay healthy for as long as possible, according to a study con-ducted by some of the country’s top universities.

Rethinking our priorities in terms of medical goals is becoming impera-tive, simply because of demographic develop-ments, said the study authors. Populations around the world enjoy prospects of longevity unheard of only a few generations ago. Yet, overall health conditions of the aging are not improving as much.

“In the last half-century, major life expectancy gains were driven by � nding ways to reduce mortality from fatal diseases. But now disabled life expectancy is rising faster than total life expectancy, leaving the number of years that one can expect to live in good health unchanged or di-minished,” wrote Dr. Dana P. Goldman, a professor of public health and phar-maceutical economics at the University of Southern California and lead author of the study report. “If we can age more slowly, we can delay the onset and pro-gression of many disabling diseases simultaneously.”

In 2009, the latest year for which data are available, the number of Americans

65 years and older was close to 40 million. By 2030, it will be about 72 million, twice as many as in 2000.

If even a small percentage of the elderly could be kept in reasonably good health, it

would make a sig-ni� cant di� erence, not only in quality of life but also in expenditures for health care and entitlement pro-grams.

“Delayed aging could increase

life expectancy by an ad-ditional 2.2 years, most of which would be spent in good health. � e economic value of delayed aging is estimated to be 7.1 trillion over � � y years,” the study report concluded.

In their assessment, the researchers emphasize that slowing the aging process at least in parts of the popula-

tion is a realistic goal that should be pursued sooner rather than later. In place of combating individual diseases, they recommend large-scale measures of prevention.

A greater focus on early prevention is also sup-ported by many healthcare organizations, including the American Heart As-

sociation (AHA) and the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND).

In an article recently pub-lished in the AHA journal,

“Circulation,” the authors call on doctors and other healthcare professionals to include lifestyle changes more aggressively in their treatment regimens.

Sidewalks, open government and eco-nomic growth were

just some of the topics at Bastyr University Tuesday night, as five of the six Kenmore City Council candidates participated in the only forum prior to the Nov. 5 general elec-tion.

The event, facilitated by Cascadia Community College President Eric Murray and organized by the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce and the Kenmore Busi-ness Alliance, gave the approximately 50 resi-dents in attendance a chance to hear two-minute answers to eight questions and an open-ing and closing statement from each candidate.

Murray announced that council incumbent Laurie Sperry, who is being challenged for position 2 by Bob Black, was unable to attend due to a family medical issue.

The one topic that most of the candidates kept going back to throughout the forum is the lack of sidewalks in Kenmore.

“It is a shame that kids can’t walk to school or seniors can’t walk to the drugstore because our arterials are not safe for anyone,” said Nigel Herbig, who is running against Patrick O’Brien for position 4. “People want sidewalks now, not in 20 years. It should not take a generation to do it.”

Most of the other candidates agreed that sidewalks is a big issue. The council passed a 20 year plan to install side-walks but that is not fast enough for some of the candidates. Council in-cumbent Allan Van Ness, who is being challenged by Ken Smith, stated that sidewalks cost the city $1 million per mile and suggested the idea of a possible bond measure to speed up the process.

With the continued in-crease in Kenmore traffic, the issue is one of public safety said Van Ness.

“We continue to prog-ress with this issue,” said Van Ness. “But the drain-age ditches all around the city are dangerous.”

Black and O’Brien echoed the safety con-cerns and that the issue needs to be addressed

faster.“People want to know

‘where are our taxes go-ing?’” said Black, who wants to focus taxes more towards infrastructure improvements.

O’Brien said that the best way to find out what residents want is through a vote, calling out the current council as being highly presumptive in their deliberations. He cited the fact that Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn put the deep-bore tunnel on the waterfront to a vote.

“He might not be very popular but he asked the public what they wanted,” said O’Brien.

Van Ness pointed out that it is expensive

and burdensome to put things to a vote.

O’Brien and Black would like to

see the city send out surveys through the mail to get residents’ opinions.

“It is kind of like a vote and you can get a good idea of what people want,” said Black.

Van Ness mentioned some of the things the council has done to facilitate discussions with citizens, such as Coffee with Council, but would like to see more town hall meetings.

“This is a representative democracy and the coun-cil is a conduit between residents and the city,” said Van Ness.

Facilitating better communication with residents was repeatedly brought up throughout the forum. Herbig started live Tweeting council meetings so residents who could not attend could see what was discussed. Herbig and O’Brien are big proponents of televis-ing or streaming council meetings on the web.

Herbig and Smith also advocated readings at two separate council meetings for important topics to give residents more of an opportunity to voice their opinions.

Smith agreed that the council needs to listen more but that process is not always easy. He took issue with some of the budgeting processes the city maintains. Both of those issues converged in Smith’s idea, taken from other city governments, to have participatory budgeting.

“Set aside a small pot of money and have citizens

propose and vote on ideas,” said Smith. “The main thing is to learn and listen.”

The city’s role in economic development was a big part of the conversation, including past real estate transac-tions and how to handle the construction industry properties at LakePointe.

“That land is more valu-able for redevelopment than it is for the heavy construction that is there now,” said Van Ness.

A big portion of LakePointe is Lake Washington waterfront property. While most of the candidates want to see the property redeveloped, they didn’t all agree on how it should be done.

O’Brien was glad to get the question on Lake-Pointe last, noting that the property was once a garbage dump.

“There are things in the ground that have not yet been discovered,” said O’Brien. “The land has to be cleaned up to be sold or developed. It makes no sense at all to do anything until you do a study. Let’s find out what is there.”

He also noted that the

owner is not in a hurry to sell.

The concerns for envi-ronmental safety of the industrial area continue to permeate the political discourse.

“LakePointe is a pile of gravel with a smokestack sending out who knows what into the air,” said Herbig.

Smith also took issue with redeveloping the land, citing a study on the economic viability of the land.

“If you read it with an open mind it says the market has decided what we have,” said Smith. He added that people are hoping and dreaming about something different that may be unrealistic.

Van Ness took issue with that conclusion: “They were concerned about a multi-use de-velopment … but once people come to the city the businesses will come.”

While all of the candi-dates agree that the city should not be directly involved in real estate transactions to lure busi-nesses to the city and should just be a facilitator, they did not all agree what

should be the focus. Smith said that the

city needs to be OK with being a bedroom commu-nity and focus on building more sports fields and restaurants. O’Brien said that the city needs to do a better job of writing con-tracts and feels his back-ground would allow him to facilitate that focus.

Herbig and Van Ness want development to be focused in the downtown, while O’Brien and Black were focused primarily on LakePointe. Herbig, O’Brien, Black and Smith were all against the coun-cil’s recent passage of the business registration fee, while Van Ness said he voted against the measure.

One of the only conten-tious moments of the night came between Van Ness and Smith on the issue of whether the busi-ness incubator has a writ-ten out plan for the public to view and whether it has been a success with only three businesses created.

“I would have done the incubator differently,” said Smith. “They are not the kind of businesses that our tax dollars should be used for.”

...obituariesAudrey Petersen Thomas

Audrey Petersen Thomas was born Audrey Ann on May 23, 1929 to Henry and Anna Kirk Petersen. She was one of seven children born and raised on the family farm in Tyler, Minnesota--a town she fondly described, “where even the O’Tooles are Danish.”

Upon graduating, she attended Mankato State Teachers College and taught school in a one-room schoolhouse until her brother told her United Airlines was hiring and encouraged her to apply. Shortly thereafter, she began her training as a stewardess, eventually flying out of Denver, Chicago and Seattle, where she met Donald G. Thomas.

They began their married life together on September 8, 1954 - first settling in Bellevue, then moving to Bothell, where they spent 30 years, and retiring to Tacoma. With each community, Audrey gave of her time and self: she was a Den Mother for Cub Scouts, Brownie Leader for Girl Scouts, and a tireless volunteer for her children’s schools, earning her the Golden Acorn Award. She was a member of the Altar Guild at First Lutheran Church of Bothell, a caregiver for her own mother, and the neighborhood “mother” of her children’s many friends. She was loyal to her dear friends, and always welcoming new ones.

After moving to Tacoma, she continued to give of herself at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, Mary Bridge Children’s Foundation, Pierce College Foundation and countless other organizations: Audubon Society, The Humane Society, Lakewold Gardens, to name a few. Audrey volunteered in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit as a baby “rocker” and also won the hearts of the doctors and nurses who knew her. She was kind and friendly to everyone and was well loved in and around their neighborhood in the Proctor District.

Audrey was a talented seamstress, artist and gardener. She loved her garden both at home and at the family beach home on Camano Island. She also enjoyed reading and putting together puzzles. Audrey was proud of her Danish heritage, and had perfected the art of many traditional Danish foods, including Ebelskiver and Kransekake, which she lovingly made and shared with friends and family. She always had music playing wherever she was, and made sure each of her children were taught to appreciate music and play an instrument. She loved animals, especially her miniature schnauzer, Rudy. Audrey was proud of all her children and grandchildren, providing loving support to each one of them in their separate endeavors. One of her classic phrases was “You’re my favorite today.” She made everyone feel like her “favorite.”

She left us peacefully on October 4, 2013 and will be missed beyond measure.

Audrey is survived by her husband of 59 years, Donald Thomas; son and daughter-in-law, Kevin and Fran Thomas, grandsons Conner and Avery Thomas of Kent; daughter Kathryn Walkley, grandson Ethan Walkley of Tacoma; daughter and son-in-law, Karen and George “Scott” Scott, grandson Morgan Myers, granddaughter Anna Myers of Tacoma; daughter and son-in-law, Jane and James Bigelow, grandson James Bigelow of Tacoma.

Private interment will be held at Tahoma National Cemetery. A celebration of Audrey’s life will held on October 26, 2013. Please contact Kevin Thomas at [email protected] for information. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Mary Bridge Children’s Foundation, PO Box 5296,

became sick, Tesar said she was deeply saddened to hear the news, but she thought her friend would beat it. Now, she is griev-ing.

She decided to create the 5k event “because she’s a sister to me,” said Tesar, who lives in Bothell. “In Jesus, she’s my sister, and we’re called to love her as a sister and

that’s why. Because my heart is to support and love her and hope that this story can touch even more people.”

She said she has been “blown away” with the support she has received so far for the event.

When she began to look for event sponsors, her massage therapist told her to talk to Shelby Schenck, the owner of Run26 in

Mill Creek. “He already read our

story in the Bothell Reporter; his heart was already open to help Krystal,” she said.

Schenck named Run26 in honor of his brother, Steve, who was born on the 26th of July and passed away from a brain tumor at the age of 13.

“It was really cool to see he already knew about her,” Tesar added. “It was crazy I came in to talk to him on Sept. 26, which

is the day his brother died. They didn’t know he had a tumor on his brain stem. He does tons of marathons to support brain tumor research.”

Her biggest obstacle was getting the city of Bothell to allow her to have the event in Novem-ber. City staff told her the process would take at least 60 days to process the event permits in Bothell and other juris-dictions. But Tesar said time was of the essence and she needed to set things up right away.

“We kept praying and then everything just came through,” Tesar said. “The biggest thing was to do the event while Krystal is still here, so the fact the city said ‘yes’ is a miracle.”

The event is a family-style charity run, so people of any fitness level are encouraged to participate.

Event proceeds will benefit both the Warwick family and braintumor.org. Participants can elect what percentage of their donation to give to the organization, which Microsoft will match, said Tesar, whose husband

works for the company. Though donations will

be graciously accepted, Tesar said the event is not about the money.

“It’s to bring the com-munity together to not only support someone in our community, but to help raise money towards curing this, perhaps,” she said.

Cindy Sheff, Warwick’s aunt, said the family is “incredibly blessed” that Tesar and others in the community want to honor Warwick with this charity event.

“It is the ongoing support of our friends that gets us through the

darkness of this journey,” Sheff said. “It is not easy to wrap our brains around the thought of a one so loved dying, and harder yet to prepare our hearts. We greatly appreciate the support of the Bothell community on our jour-ney, thank you all so very much.”
