Designation change could mean major expansion of airport in next decade

BY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

A change in the type of planes landing at the Renton Mu-nicipal Airport over the past 20 years might see them having to extend a safety area across Airport Way, through South Tobin Street and into the Renton High School baseball fields.

The possible expansion is due to more commuter jets landing at the airport in recent years and the need for larger safety areas to account for them.

“We’re seeing more activity from aircraft that have higher performance standards,” airport Manager Jonathan Wilson said, adding that Clayton Scott Field is now the fourth-busiest airport in the state, behind Sea-Tac, Boeing Field and Paine Field in Everett.

The city is currently working on a required Master Plan

update for the airport and, according to Wilson, the larger planes coming into the airport these days might trigger Federal Aviation Administration rules requiring a huge new runway protection zone that must be kept empty for safety purposes.

Currently, the Master Plan is configured for the primary aircraft served in Renton to be a small turbo-prop plane that seats up to 12 passengers. It is what’s known as the airport’s “design aircraft” for planning purposes.

But since the last update, a new class of planes is on the upswing: small corporate jets.

“Really what we’re seeing is a lot more of the business-jet style using the airport,” Wilson said. “The numbers of corpo-rate aircraft are up. And they’re way up.”

And with a larger “design aircraft” comes a larger protec-tion zone than the airport currently has space for.

“Based on data we’ve seen, what we’re looking at now is that runway design code changing, possibly,”

Renton police get K-9 grant from Pittsburgh quarterbackBY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

The Renton Police Department will soon be getting a new K-9 officer, thanks to a somewhat unexpected source.

Renton was one of two local police organizations that received K-9 grants from the Ben Roethlis-berger Foundation’s Giving Back Fund, started by the Pittsburgh Steelers starting quarterback of the same name.

During the 2015-16 NFL season, the Ben Roeth-lisberger Foundation is distributing grants to K-9 units of police and fire departments in the cities and surrounding communities of each regular sea-son away game for the Steelers, who played Sunday in Seattle.

This marks the ninth season that the Ben Ro-ethlisberger Foundation has distributed grants to K-9 units. The Bellevue Police Department also received a grant for a K-9 ballistic vest.

The Renton Police Department is planning to use the grant to add a narcotics trained K-9 to its existing team of three tracking dogs with their Patrol Division.

Small prop planes, like the one seen landing here, have long been the bread-and-butter of the Renton Municipal Airport, but an increase in the number of corporate jets landing here could lead to a major expansion of a required safety zone. BRIAN BECKLEY, Renton Reporter

RHS DECA students collect school suppliesMore than 400 names already submitted for new middle school in Newcastle

The Renton School District has collected more than 400 suggestions from students, parents and community members for the name of the district’s new middle school, being built in the northern end of the district, near the Newcastle area.

The name suggestions were made through an online survey site. Community members were also asked to explain their choice.

The committee charged with sifting through those suggestions and ultimately providing the School Board with a few names to consider for the new school will be meeting over the next few months to do their work.

The public is invited to those meetings to hear the names being considered.

Public comment time is built into each com-mittee meeting so community members can offer names directly to the committee.

The next meeting is scheduled for 6:45 to 9 p.m. Dec. 15 at Hazelwood Elementary Com-mons, 7100 116th Ave. S.E., Newcastle.

At that meeting, the committee will review nominations and establish a preliminary list.

During the Jan. 15 meting at the Board Room, the list will be finalized.

“This donation allows us to start a new canine program that will greatly improve our ability to investigate narcotic crimes in Renton,” Chief Kevin Milosevich said in a press release.

“We haven’t had a nar-cotics dog for years and years,” Commander David Leibman, spokesman for the department, said this week.

According to Leibman,

the grant is for approxi-mately $7,500 and will serve as “seed money” for the department to buy, train and equip a new K-9 officer, one that will be dedicated to the narcotics team.

“This will make it a lot more efficient for us to in-vestigate narcotics-related cases,” he said.

Police dogs are trained for specific purposes, so a tracking dog cannot be used for narcotics inves-tigations and vice versa. Leibman said a narcotics dog will help officers find drugs that suspects may be able to hide from hu-man eyes, but not a canine nose.

Leibman said the grant would not fully cover the cost of the dog and its training, but that without the grant, they would not be able to go forward at all.

“We’re very fortunate to be in the position that we are able to help these K-9 units,” Roethlisberger said in a press release. “The work that is performed by the dogs and their han-dlers as well as the bond that is formed is incred-ible. We’re just thrilled to do our small part.”

But don’t worry, Se-ahawks fans, Leibman said the K-9 grant does not come with any restrictions about naming the dog “Steeler” or “Big Ben” or anything like that, and that despite having a black-and-yellow background, the department is welcome to raise a good, local 12th Dog.

“We can try,” Leibman said with a laugh.

Dec. 12 concert in Renton to benefit Ebola relief efforts

BY DEAN A. RADFORD

[email protected]

A musical presentation, “After Ebola: Bringing Hope to Life” in Renton Saturday, Dec. 12, will help a Kent congregation raise money for Ebola relief in Liberia and West Africa.

The family friendly benefit presentation by Trio Guadalevín is 3 p.m. at Carco Theatre, 1717 S.E. Maple Valley Highway, Renton.

The presentation will benefit the Liberian Transcon-tinental Christian Ministries of Kent, which is raising money to build an institution to help house children

orphaned by the Ebola crisis and provide them with food, clothing and an education.

The congregation’s pastor, George Everett, visited Liberia in April and since then has been able to provide food for 104 orphans and school fees for 15 other children, which was done with the assistance of the Mercer Island Presbyterian Church.

Transcontinental Christian Ministries also shipped three containers of medical equipment and supplies to Liberia with the help of organizations and churches in the region.

The Ebola crisis in West Africa has abated but more than 16,000 children have been left without food or shelter, according to the congregation.

The event is presented by Trio Guadalevin, Carco Theatre and Transcontinental Christian Ministries.

Trio Guadalevín ensemble explores the roots that bind the Americas with Southern Europe, the Maghreb and West Africa. Its members are Abel Ro-cha, August Denhard and Antonio Gomez.

Denhard is executive director of the Early Music Guild, which raised $2,000 in a benefit concert for the ministry in November 2014.

“Our music borrows sounds from the Middle East, 16th- and 17th-century Spain, and living Mexican folk music such as Son Jarocho and Son Huasteco,” Denhard said. “We draw attention to these shared traditions, and enjoy opportunities to show diverse audiences the deep cultural roots that they hold in common.”

Tickets are $10 adults ages 18 and older and $5 chil-dren and seniors over 65, plus a service fee. Tickets are available online at http://bpt.me/e/2414210.

Tips on eating healthy this holiday season | ASK A DOCTORThe holiday season is here - and that means gatherings

with family and friends and the endless food traditions we know and love: festive parties, delicious desserts, once-a-year beverages and homemade treats. But the holidays can prove challenging for sticking to a healthy diet – even for

the most disciplined among us.A typical adult needs about 2,000

calories per day, but during the holidays, one plate of Thanksgiving food can constitute over a full day’s calories on its own. So how can we enjoy the plethora of tasty food without completely tossing out our diet and health goals?

Put a twist on traditionInstead of completely eliminating

your beloved Thanksgiving dishes, consider adjusting the recipe to be more nutritious and favorable to your diet. Many of the classic Thanksgiving dishes are not the healthiest dishes out there – but there are plenty of ways to lighten up the fat, salt and calorie count.

Baked, or seasoned and roasted, potatoes beat their com-petitors, scalloped or mashed potatoes, when it comes to saving on cream and butter content. These lighter versions can be made flavorful using seasonings and a little olive oil, as well as Greek yogurt and herbs to liven up the flavor. Feeling adventurous? You could even add pureed cauli-flower to mashed potatoes or choose sweet potatoes, which have all the same benefits of a potato plus beta carotene and vitamin A.

Bake your turkey stuffing in a separate pan. When baked inside the turkey, stuffing absorbs the turkey’s fat drip-pings that can greatly increase the fat and calorie content. If you have recipes for stuffing or other dishes that call for

chicken or vegetable broth, use low-sodium broth. Also, low-sodium spice mixes, chicken sausage, nuts, apples or dried cranberries are a good way to make your stuffing more nutritious.

Holiday drinks often add significant calories to your dinner and many of us forget to factor those extra calories and carbohydrates into the overall meal. If you’re planning to enjoy a cocktail, skip the sweets. Sugar and alcohol are easy to overindulge in during the holidays, but if you plan accordingly, you can avoid the sugar binge.

Restructure your plateWhether you are hosting or attending as a guest, note the

size of the dinner plates and the serving utensils. A normal dinner plate today is about 12 inches across; in contrast, dinner plates in the 1960s were only 8 or 9 inches across. To avoid completely filling the plate or bowl provided, choose a smaller plate to help maintain portion control.

Serving size is key to keeping your holiday meal in check. When dishing up for your holiday meals, keep a few references in mind as a guide. A single serving of turkey is about three to three-and-a-half ounces, or roughly the size of a deck of cards. For mashed potatoes, keep in mind that a serving is one-half cup, about the size of a tennis ball. For the cranberry sauce and gravy, stick to about 2 tablespoons, or the size of a golf ball.

To help keep your plate balanced, try and add vegetables and lean protein to your plate first so there is less tempta-tion and space to fill your plate with starchy foods.

Stay activeJust because Thanksgiving is a holiday, it doesn’t mean

you should skip your workout. But it doesn’t mean you have to hit the gym! Use the time with family and friends to incorporate physical activity: take a walk or a bike ride,

start a flag football game in your backyard, or initiate an after-dinner dance party. Getting even a little bit of exer-cise, such as a 15- to 20-minute walk after dinner will help with digestion and blood sugar control.

The holidays are a nonstop flood of diet-derailing temp-tation. But by strategizing and being intentional with how you eat and what you eat, you can celebrate with the ones you love while eating healthily and having fun.

Valley Medical Center receives top marks for hospital safety in national survey

Valley Medical Center this month received a Grade of “A” for hospi-tal safety by The Leapfrog Group, a national, independent nonprofit or-ganization which evaluates and scores 2,500 hospitals across the country. Leapfrog is the nation’s premier advo-cate of transparency to promote giant leaps forward in quality and patient safety in healthcare.

Valley is one of only 11 hospitals in the state with an A grade (43 were graded). The Hospital Safety Score is the gold standard rating for patient safety, compiled under the guidance of the nation’s leading patient safety experts and administered by The

Leapfrog Group.“This “A” grade demonstrates that

Valley Medical Center is one of the safest hospitals in the region, and the nation, for patients to receive care. Our team is committed to delivering safe, high-quality patient care day in and day out,” Kathryn Beattie, Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer at Valley Medical Center, said in a press release. “The safety of our patients has always been a top priority here at Valley, and we will continue to strive to provide the best possible care to our patients and the community we serve.”

Developed under the guidance of

Leapfrog’s Blue Ribbon Expert Panel, the Hospital Safety Score uses 28 measures of publicly available hospital safety data to produce a single A, B, C, D, or F score, representing a hospital’s overall capacity to keep patients safe from preventable harm.

More than 2,500 U.S. hospitals were assigned scores in October 2015, with 773 hospitals receiving an A grade. The Hospital Safety Score is the first and only hospital safety rating to be peer-reviewed in the Journal of Patient Safety and is designed to give consumers information they can use to protect themselves and their fami-lies when facing a hospital stay.

Citizens have the final check on fact, opinion

Have you ever been asked “Gotcha!” ques-tions in a public forum? This is what hap-pened to Republican presidential candidates in the third debate recently. A few of the candidates called the moderators out on this behavior. It’s no wonder Republicans have listed “the liberal media bias” as one of their key talking points.

Since Richard Nixon, with his 5 o’clock shadow, lost the presidency to a young, tanned and handsome John F. Kennedy in the 1960 presidential debate, the modern media have helped shape politics in this na-tion for better and for worse.

The media in all its forms plays a vital role in this nation. The most important role is one of watchdog – to guard the nation’s values from corrupt politicians and govern-ment workers who would hide their actions

from the public. Without a strong press, well-func-tioning democracy is not possible. Truth must rise to the surface. That will not happen unless there is an outlet for that informa-tion.

The News Tribune’s in-cisive investigative articles

on State Auditor Troy Kelley and Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist’s office are two examples where the press plays its role well as guardian of the public good.

According to the book, “American Gov-ernment: A Complete Coursebook,” media plays two different roles: to influence public opinion and, at the same time, to shape the candidates’ and government officials’ behav-ior. Politicians are greatly affected by what is said about them and change their actions accordingly. This media influence weakens the power of political parties in the process.

An example of this is when the Republican presidential candidates respond to criticism of statements they make. Candidate behavior is shaped by those comments. By the media asking probing questions, they influence public opinion.

One good example is how media atten-tion over the Benghazi attack and Hilary Clinton’s private email server have forced her to find ways to deal with damage control, rather than do other things that might help her campaign with voters in the early pri-mary states of Iowa and New Hampshire.

Campaigns know this and use the media to get their messages to the voting public. They center their meetings and photo oppor-tunities with the media in mind. This creates the problem that personal appearance can trump experience, ideas and character.

Is this a good thing? That depends. The media’s coverage definitely acts as a “fourth

branch” of government. The media keeps Con-gress, the President and even the Supreme Court on edge about their decisions and rulings.

Press coverage of Supreme Court decisions has definitely affected Chief Justice Roberts’ rulings over “Obamacare.” Roberts altered his behavior because he is concerned about how his court will look to history.

The problem then arises, who “checks” the me-dia? Paradoxically, while the Republican presiden-tial candidates have made attacking liberal media bias one of their campaign “talking points,” they also do not criticize the conservative media bias found on Fox with its political coverage.

As a retired political science teacher told me recently, Rupert Murdoch’s Fox Network’s chief

political goal seems to be to get Republicans elected. I have found people citing Fox News po-litical comments as gospel. Of course, the liberal MSNBC does the same thing for the political left.

Media’s job is to act as watchdog, bringing cor-ruption and malpractice to light. In the process they both report and influence public perceptions and often set the political agenda. Our job as citizens and voters is to remember that lesson we learned in our high school social studies classes – to know how to separate fact from opinion in the media. American voters are the fifth branch of government who need to check all the first four branches.

There is no time waste to ensure standards keep our water safe

“Stay the course.” It was one of our late chair-man Billy Frank’s favorite sayings. It was his way of encouraging us to keep moving toward our goals, regardless of who or what stands in our

way.We hope the U.S. Environ-

mental Protection Agency will stay the course in the fight for more protective water quality standards for everyone who lives in Wash-ington.

The federal Clean Water Act requires states to develop

standards that ensure our waters are clean enough to provide healthy fish and shellfish that are safe to eat. EPA had to step in more than 20 years ago to develop human health standards for the state.

Now EPA has stepped in again to revise those standards to make sure they are fully protective of Washington’s residents. The state has tried to revise its standards in the last several years, but has repeatedly started, stopped, and delayed that work.

In early September, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy provided necessary leadership by advancing a federal rule to update Washington’s outdated standards. The proposed rule reflects our region’s high level of fish and shellfish con-sumption and the best available science.

EPA stepped up to the plate after the state missed repeated deadlines. Gov. Jay Inslee has now ordered the state Department of Ecology to start rulemaking again.

Given the state’s track record, we do not have confidence that they will successfully complete

take-off and landing strip and is designed to give aircraft who leave the runway a structure- and population-free place to go.

Under the current designation, the runway safety area must be 150 feet. Because of the Renton airport’s unusually wide runway (due to its WWII-era construction for use by Boeing), the current safety zone fits entirely within the paved runway area.

But if the designation changes, the safety area jumps to 500 feet, and since extending a peninsula into Lake Wash-ington is unlikely at best, that would mean the space would have to come from the south end of the airport, leading to a safety area that ends at Tobin and a protection zone that stretches almost to South Third Street.

FAA regulations specifically prohibit “residences and places of public assembly” in the RPZ.

“The question is how to deal with that,” Wilson said.Marcie Palmer, outgoing City Councilwoman and

Renton Airport Advisory Committee member, said she has been on the RAAC since 2004 and though this designation change has always been a possibility, the actual news of it was something of a shock.

“I thought oh … my … goodness,” Palmer said. “We’ve just seen a much quicker switch to the type of aircraft com-ing in than we expected.

“It snuck up on us,” she said.So when the Master Plan update came up at a recent

meeting, including word from the FAA that the city can-not deviate from the standards, “that was when I went ‘oh wow,’” she said.

Palmer said she realized then the scope of work that

might be necessary.“I think people are going to be stunned and over-

whelmed with the thought,” she said, but added, “I don’t think we should panic.”

Wilson said the FAA has yet to formally accept the Renton analysis and may still keep the airport’s designation as-is; but even if the change is not made in this iteration of the Master Plan, Wilson said they will eventually have to deal with the issue.

“The door’s wide open on where we land with our run-way design code,” Wilson said. “We’re not done yet.”

On a high note, any expansion of the airport would be eligible for 90 percent funding from the federal govern-

ment, but that does not deal with the traffic on Airport Way or where the businesses, residences and high school playing fields would go.

But Palmer said this is all a product of the success of the airport, which is a good thing for the region and the city.

“We just happen to be in a good location,” she said. “We have to make what we have work best.”

Wilson said the city expects to hear from the FAA and, if necessary, begin a large public outreach on the issue begin-ning next year.

Reach Editor Brian Beckley at 425-255-3484, ext. 5050.

But what about the 737s?

As the Renton Municipal Airport prepares its next 20-year Master Plan document, they may have to change the airport’s designation based on a larger class of airplanes coming and going.

Instead of small, propeller planes the airport may have to plan for an increased number of corporate jets using the field, leading to the need for a larger runway protection area.

But that begs the question: What about the 737s produced by Boeing here in Renton? Don’t they use the Renton Airport?

The answer is yes, they do use the field but not in a large-enough num-ber to be considered the “design aircraft.”

According to Airport Manager Jonathan Wilson, an airfield must begin considering a plane for design aircraft designation when the take-offs and landings reach 500 in a year.

So far, the number of 737s using the Renton Municipal Airport each

years has not reached the threshold, primarily because the 737s gener-ally only use the airfield for a single take-off, with the flight landing at Boeing Field.

However, Boeing recently in-creased its production to 42 737s per month, or 504 per year, with plans to ramp up to 52 aircraft per month in 2018, which means the city may have to take the larger commercial aircrafts into consider-ation in the next Master Plan update in the mid 2030s.

Support a ‘growth industry’ this gifting season by giving holiday plants

The first week of December is when holiday gift plants appear as the easy and practical solution for Christmas, hostess and personal gifts.

There are many advantages of giving a living plant dur-ing the dark days of winter:

• They are easy to find at not just nurseries and garden centers but in December you’ll find these plants at home stores, drug stores and supermarkets.

• You don’t have to worry if a living plant will fit, ruin a diet or need to be exchanged.

• You’ll be supporting a true “growth industry.”

• It is the only gift that sucks away carbon dioxide and replenishes oxygen in a room. (OK, maybe there are machines that do this but they don’t look as festive sitting on a table.)

• Plants are more colorful, personal and smell better than gift cards.

• You don’t have to wrap a gift plant – this time of year they come with their pots wrapped up in festive foil and already adorned with holiday bows – so you can pick one up on your way to an event – perfect for last minute shoppers.

So what plant is best to give?

Holiday Hellebores – the best gift plant for gardeners or anyone that complains about the dark days of winter.

Hellebores are evergreen perennials that bloom in the winter and thrive in our mild moist climate. They live for years and once moved outdoors to a partly shaded spot are slug, deer and drought resistant.

In European countries hellebores have been more pop-ular than poinsettias as gift plants and now Americans are seeing the heavenly traits of the hellebore plant. New varieties are more compact and adapt to indoor warmth – but please place your potted hellebore outdoors after a few weeks inside and don’t let the soil dry out. You can

transplant a potted hellebore into the garden any time of the year as long as the ground is not frozen.

You can recognize hellebores – sometimes called the Christmas Rose or the Lenten Rose by the cup-shaped, white, pink or green blooms hanging gracefully from a thick stalk. The foliage is shiny green with pointy tips.

Selfish tip: It is quite OK to gift a potted hellebore to someone without any garden space– then in a month or two when the plant is done blooming offer to take the plant back and plant it in your own garden. Now you can share the winter blooms for years to come with the first owner.

Poinsettias – classic gift plants that now come in many colors and sizes.

Give a tiny pocket poinsettia to brighten an office cubicle or to add to a dish garden. Fill an empty fireplace with classic red poinsettias, hang a huge basket poinsettia from an indoor balcony or march a row of creamy white poinsettias up the front stair case.

Poinsettias also come in pink, yellow and mixed colors.Just remember that these are tropical plants so protect

from the cold – and no, you cannot plant your poinsettia outdoors after it is done blooming.

Amaryllis – bold, bodacious, blooming bulbs.Long strappy leaves surround a thick stem that erupts

with gigantic butterfly shaped blooms in shades of red, pink or white. This eye-catching houseplant can stay in flower for months in a cool room and you have the choice of giving an amaryllis already in flower or as part of a ready- to- plant kit that comes with plant, pot and soil. Just add water.

This is a great plant for college dorms, nursing homes or small apartments as it doesn’t take up much room. Protect from cold and don’t let the bulb’s roots sit in their own drainage water. The tall stem can grow two feet or higher and will lean toward the light so provide support and turn the pot often.

County Council approves adding more land to ‘green curtain’

In 2009, King County voters adopted a charter amend-ment protecting King County’s “Curtain of Green” by providing enhanced protection to more than 150,000 acres of high conservation value property owned by King County.

The Metropolitan King County Council has expanded that protection with its adoption of legislation adding 4,000 acres into the County’s High Conservation Value Property Inventory.

“Acquiring open space properties conserves, preserves and protects our natural and scenic resources,” Council Chair Larry Phillips said in a press release. “Not only does it reduce urban sprawl and provide natural corridors in urban areas it also serves to mitigate the effects of human activities that contribute to climate change.”

The Open Space Protection Amendment adopted by voters in 2009 provides additional protection to proper-ties that are of particular value because they provide habitat, wetlands, undeveloped shoreline, creeks or other natural conditions. These high conservation value properties must be owned by the County, either in full or through a conservation easement.

The Open Space Protection Amendment makes it more difficult for the County to sell, develop, or other-wise change the use of properties included on the High Conservation Value Inventory.

The legislation adopted by the Council will add ap-proximately 4,000 acres on 225 parcels in natural areas in four Council Districts. The parcels being added are all owned by King County (either in fee or with an ease-ment). Most of them are contiguous to other properties already listed as high conservation value.

The following information was compiled from Renton Police De-partment case reports.

A 44-year-old man, wear-ing a stolen pair of work boots, rammed an assistant manager at Fred Meyer on Rainier Avenue Nov. 17 with shopping cart filled with liquor and wine he was try-ing to steal.

Store employees had already been following the man through the store at about 7:30 a.m. as he grabbed a Seahawks jersey, exchanged his own shoes for work boots, piled clothing on the floor and became aggressive.

A manager asked him to leave but instead he went to the liquor and wine aisles, where he either broke the bottles or threw them into a shopping cart. Damage was estimated at about $1,000.

He then headed for the door, where an assistant manager told him to stop. Instead, he rammed the cart into the manager’s mid-section three or four times.

He left the cart behind and ran across Rainier Avenue toward McLendon and into the lobby area. He held his coat in front of him as protection against the of-ficer’s Tazer. Then he surrendered.

The SCORE regional jail wouldn’t accept him because of pre-existing injuries, apparently suffered while tried to buy some methamphetamine. He also had an incision performed at Har-borview, where he was treated for inserting a dirty needle into his arm.

He was then returned to SCORE after he was treated at Valley Medical Center and

booked for investigation of first-degree robbery and other charges

SAY NO TO STRANGERS: A Renton woman learned the hard way that it is risky to let strangers stay at her home.

The woman met a young couple through a mutual friend and al-lowed them to stay with her. But she became suspicious when she noticed expensive jewelry and some nostalgic postcards were missing.

She also learned that the couple had stayed in Yakima and New-castle with other mutual friends, who reported missing items as well.

The friends went to Yakima, where they discovered some of their stolen items at a home where the couple had stayed. They weren’t there.

The investigating Renton Police officer warned the victim that in the future, it may not be in her best interest to allow strangers to stay with her. She has reported other thefts after others have stayed with her.

HELMET NO, WARRANT YES: After his arrest a Lake Stevens man told a Renton Police officer Nov. 18 that he would “never shoot a cop” but he was sick of “surrendering.”

The 35-year-old was stopped at about 11:30 p.m. near South Second and Burnett Avenue after an officer spotted him riding his bike without a helmet.

He became agitated when the officer asked for his name. He told the officer he was “pulled up” because he’s black.

A records check showed he was wanted on a felony warrant from the state Department of Correc-tions for escaping from com-munity custody. A search found razor blades and a piece of wood

fashioned into a knife.He was booked into SCORE

regional jail.NO DRINKING AT TRANSIT CENTER:

The Renton officer wasn’t sure what the familiar drunk man meant when he said he was going to “Alpha David” him, but he took it as a personal threat.

The officer was responding at about 12:30 p.m. Nov. 18 to a man passing out at the downtown transit center.

The 24-year-old West Hill man started pouring out his 24-ounce can of Steel Reserve beer when he saw the officer approaching.

He was arrested. “For what?” he said. “I was just drinking a beer.”

He then swore at the officer.He was booked into SCORE

regional jail for investigation of unlawful transit conduct.

BILLOWING EVIDENCE: The over-whelming odor and smoke of marijuana billowed from a mini-van parked at Kiwanis Park early on Nov. 18 as the officer talked to the couple inside.

The minivan caught the eye of an officer patrolling at about 2 a.m. The Highlands park closes as sunset and the minivan was in a no-parking zone.

The 18-year-old female passen-ger was smoking the marijuana cigarette. She lives nearby and was allowed to walk home.

However, the driver, a 20-year-old Kent man, was booked into the Kent City Jail on numerous warrants.

MARIJUANA TRESPASS: A 19-year-old Seattle man was trespassed from the City View Church prop-erty on Southwest Langston Road late on Nov. 14 after a Renton Police officer found him smoking marijuana in his car.

When the suspect rolled down

his window, the smell and smoke of marijuana came out. A small jar of a fuzzy green plant substance was sitting next to him. The mari-juana weighed 2.2 grams.

DIAMOND RING THEFT: A man shopping for a diamond ring for his girlfriend on Nov. 16 fled from a jewelry story on Sunset Boule-vard Northeast after an employee handed him one worth $3,000.

He was last seen getting into a dark-colored vehicle on Kirkland Avenue Northeast at about 5 p.m.

Inside the store he was wearing a dark jacket, dark pants and black shoes and his hoodie was pulled over his head.

LOGGING EQUIPMENT STOLEN: A man fled from Bryant Tractor the afternoon of Nov. 16 with logging equipment and a saw worth about $650.

He grabbed the tree-climbing kit when only one employee remained in the showroom, after looking around for several minutes.

He ran and was picked up by a Toyota pickup on Lind Avenue Southwest near I-405. A customer who followed him obtained the

license-plate number of a Toyota registered to a 47-year-old Thur-ston County man. The suspect was described as about 20 years old.

A pack of cigarettes the suspect may have left behind was pro-cessed for fingerprints.

A YOUNG SHOPLIFTER: A girl, about 10 years old, walked behind the counter of a convenience store on Northeast Fourth Street on Nov. 13 after two adults, presum-ably her parents, walked outside with the clerk.

She took several scratch lottery tickets, then walked to the back of the store where she concealed them. She did this two more times, concealing two vapor ciga-rettes. All this was captured on store security cameras.

She then walked outside and met up with the couple.

The theft wasn’t detected until the next day when a store man-ager noticed that several scratch tickets weren’t listed in a transac-tion record.

Your city, your news. | www.rentonreporter.com Protect your packages this holiday seasonWith the holiday season upon us and

more and more people ordering gifts online all the time, the Renton Police Department is reminding residents that they should consider all of their options to deter porch thefts.

The police department offers the fol-lowing tips:

• Think about having packages deliv-ered to your work place.

• Ask a neighbor who is home during the day to accept your package for you.

• Or have the delivery require a sig-

nature which often means the package is held at a local delivery store or main center for you to pick up at your conve-nience.

Several resident shave reported seeing people on porches or have reported pack-ages being stolen.

Residents who do experience a package theft are encouraged to file a police report online at http://rentonwa.gov/living/de-fault.aspx?id=1730.

this rulemaking. The state Legislature last year shot down Inslee’s water quality proposal, and could frustrate efforts again next year.

Meanwhile, EPA’s clock is ticking.Under the Clean Water Act, once the agency determines

that new standards are necessary to protect water quality, it is required to act promptly.

In addition to increasing the fish consumption rate to 175 grams per day and keeping the current cancer protec-tion rate of one in one million, EPA’s proposal would more strictly regulate some of the most toxic chemicals such as PCBs, arsenic and mercury. These three chemicals are responsible for most fish consumption health advisories in the state. EPA’s proposal also uses the best available science by following the most recently updated federal guidance on these toxins.

In the few details the governor provided about his proposed plan, he would leave PCBs and mercury at their current levels and provide a more lenient standard on arsenic. Preserving the status quo for some of the worst pollutants and weakening standards for others will not get

us where we need to be. While tribes support Gov. Inslee in his efforts to control pollution at the source, we believe a strong water quality rule should be the cornerstone of any such effort.

It is uncertain when or if the state will complete its rewrite of water quality standards or what those standards will look like. One thing seems to be certain – they won’t be as protective as the federal rule that is ready to be implemented.

That’s why the treaty Indian tribes encourage the EPA to proceed decisively with rulemaking. If the state is able to develop standards acceptable to the EPA, then the agency can rescind its rule in favor of the state standards.

In the meantime, every day of delay increases the impacts of toxins in our waters by slowing development of rules we know are necessary to protect the human health of everyone who lives here.

Renton Historical Museum receives grant for lobby restorationMetropolitan King County

Council members Reagan Dunn and Dave Upthegrove announced this past week that the Renton Historical Society will receive a $20,500 capital improvement grant to help fund the renovation of the Renton Historical Museum lobby.

The museum is home to a collection of over 15,000 photo-graphs and over 90,000 objects spanning all periods of Renton’s past while also offering a small

public research library.“Supporting the Renton Histor-

ical Society helps ensure contin-ued education, service, and local pride for the residents of Renton,” Dunn, who represents parts of Renton in the King County Coun-cil, said in a press release.

“Renton has a rich history and an important story to share,” said Upthegrove. “I’m proud to sup-port this project and look forward to visiting the new lobby when it is completed.”

“We are very pleased to receive this award,” said Renton Mayor Denis Law. “Thanks to this fund-ing we will be able to renovate the lobby at our museum, providing a welcoming entrance and safe access for people with disabilities and creating a more visitor-friendly introduction to Renton’s history. The Renton Historical Society is the city’s only heritage organization and we are dedicated to creating exhibits, programs, and events that showcase our

impressive cultural legacy.”The grant was awarded through

the Building for Culture pro-gram, a partnership between King County and 4Culture, King County’s cultural services agency. The program is funded using bonds backed by the hotel/motel tax to build, maintain, expand, preserve, and improve new and existing cultural facilities.

“The Building for Culture funds granted to the Renton Historical Society will enable us to complete

a long-awaited museum lobby renovation at the Renton History Museum,” said Elizabeth Stewart, Renton Historical Society Direc-tor. “With the help of the King County Council, 4Culture, and the City of Renton, our 30-year old lobby will be a more welcom-ing introduction to Renton’s rich heritage.”

The bonds supporting these projects are made possible by early retirement of the Kingdome debt.

WSDOT to host open house on interchange project

The Interstate 405/state Route 167 Interchange Direct Connector Project has been funded and WSDOT is hosting an open house from 5 to 7 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 10, at Talbot Hill Elementary, 2300 Talbot Road S.

WSDOT officials will be on hand to share with community members the project scope and what to expect when construction begins.

The I-405/SR 167 Interchange Direct Connector project will build a new flyover ramp connecting the HOT lanes on SR 167 to the carpool lanes on I-405 in Renton, eliminating carpoolers’ need to weave from the carpool lane on SR 167 over two lanes of traffic to ac-cess the northbound I-405 on-ramp.

Studies have shown the interchange to be one of the busiest in the state. Traffic analyses show that this project will decrease the hours of delay people experience at the inter-change.

This image shows the planned route of a new flyover lane at the Interstate 405/State Route 167 interchange cutting through Renton’s Talbot Hill neighborhood. COURTESY IMAGE

City receives ‘Lifetime Achievement’ award for growth planning effortsBY REPORTER STAFF

The City of Renton has been honored by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee with a Lifetime Achievement Award, as the Washington State Growth Management Act marks its 25th anniversary.

The award recognizes extraordinary efforts by communities throughout the state to envision and plan for the future. The honorees were selected from the pool of past Governor’s Smart Commu-nities Award winners.

“We are honored to be acknowledged for our efforts to promote smart growth in our city,” Renton Mayor Denis Law said in a press release. “As a lifetime achievement award, this particular recognition reminds us that we are on the right track for our community and encourages us to continue to strive for a better quality of life for all our resi-dents.”

As a four-time recipient of the Gov-ernor’s Smart Communities Award, Renton has been recognized for identi-fying goals and implementing strategies that ensure growth will occur in a way that enhances and sustains essential elements of a livable community. The projects for which Renton has been

recognized include:• 2012: Smart Vision Award for

Comprehensive Planning, for the Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas 20-year vision;

• 2013: Smart Vision Award for Comprehensive Planning, for the Sunset Area Planned Action;

• 2014: Smart Partnerships Award for a Development Project to Implement a Plan, for the partnership between the City of Renton and Renton School District Meadow Crest Early Learning Center and Meadow Crest Accessible Playground; and

• 2015: Judges’ Merit Award, for the Kirkland Avenue Townhomes.

“Quality of life is one of the chief reasons people choose to live, work and play in Washington state – it’s foundational to a thriving community and economy,” said Inslee. “Over the 25 years since the inception of the Growth Management Act, these projects showcase the successful collaborations it takes to plan effectively for business expansion, revitalization of a downtown area and promote jobs, housing, com-munity amenities and regional transit facilities.”
