No big secret, but Auburn’s streets are in bad shape, and the City doesn’t have the bucks it once had in the budget to fi x the big ones.
Which is why the Transportation
Benefi t District Board (TBD) expects on Monday to consider and possi-bly approve a $20 car tab fee and to mull possible options, strategies and actions for raising money to make sorely-needed transportation fi xes within the district.
“State law authorizes the board to enact the fee, and it is expected to generate approximately $800,000,” Kevin Snyder, director of community development and public works for

Involvement. Th at word was the overriding
theme behind the appointment of Justin Newlun to the Pacifi c City Council on Monday night.
Newlun, who turns 33 in March, inherits Tren Walker’s Position 7 seat and term, which expires Dec. 31, 2017. Walker, who had served since 2005, resigned because he is moving out of the city.
Four City Councilmembers – Clint Steiger and David Storaasli were absent – selected Newlun over three other candidates, which included Howard Erickson, who served as Pacifi c mayor from 1976-84 and 2000-04.
“I feel Justin is very qualifi ed,” Councilmember Katie Garberd-ing said. “He has done a lot for the city and the residents. He has a rapport with the community. He’s an individual thinker and does his homework.”
Newlun said he decided not to run last year for a couple of reasons.
He was busy in his role as the City’s postmaster – a role he assumed in 2010 from his grandmother before the post offi ce closed last May – and he liked the performance of the people on the council.
When Walker resigned, a resident asked Newlun to apply.
Newlun, is an offi ce manager at Erickson Refrigeration in Auburn, served on the City’s planning com-mission and its parks board. Th ose appointments ended with his move to the City Council.
Being involved in the community is important to Newlun.
“My family has always been big with what we have, we share,” he said. “We help out those in need and less fortunate.”
Newlun, who does not identify as a Democrat or Republican, main-tains an open-door policy.
“I listen to everything,” he said. “I stand up for what I believe in. What I believe in is the best thing for the community, even if it’s not the best thing for me.”
Newlun said that comes from
experience. As a sophomore, he transferred
from Mount Rainier to Lindbergh High School. But he said his records were lost in the transition, which resulted in him going to Black River Alternative High School in Seattle.
“When I showed up at the al-ternative school the fi rst day, there were kids lighting pencils on fi re and throwing them,” Newlun said. “I thought it was going to be a typi-cal, horrible, horrible experience, like you see in the movies. I fi gured everything was shot out of the water there.”
Instead, he said, he focused and was honored as King County’s Senior of the Year upon his gradu-ation.
“It was the best experience I had, being in the smaller atmosphere and working with people that were on their last chances,” Newlun said. “I got plenty of awards and worked with offi cials in King County.”
A role he fi gures to reprise in his latest endeavor.
Pacifi c Municipal Court Judge Stephen Rochon swore in Justin Newlun to the Pacifi c City Council on Monday night. Newlun inherits Tren Walker’s term, which expires Dec. 31, 2017. CHRIS CHANCELLOR, Auburn Reporter

City leaders on Monday voted unanimously to purchase the old Public Health building on Auburn Avenue North from King County.
Now the purchase and sale agreement returns to the King County Council for fi nal action.
Th e contract is for $350,000, with an additional $75,000 budgeted for studies and repairs. Th e building is about 8,000 square feet and has 20 parking spaces.
“Th e timing that we have received from King County’s Real Estate Department is that we should be get-ting King County Council approval in the next 90 days, and should close within 30 days aft er that,” said Eco-nomic Development Director Doug Lein.
Lein said that aft er the City began negotiations to acquire the building, its parks, arts and recreation depart-ment put a grant application into King County’s 4Culture for $250,000 to eff ect interior remodeling and ad-ditional upgrading.
Should the county say yes to the deal, the arts division of the Auburn Parks, Arts and Recreation Depart-ment expects to occupy most of the
building. “So, it’s not only an opportunity to
purchase but to have a nice outside cash fl ow to make the improvements we want. We are going to run some art space out of there,” Director of
Administration Dana Hin-man recently told the Auburn Reporter.
Th e greatest need the old building presents is roof repair and or replacement, but until the City owns the building lock, stock and bar-rel, it won’t be allowed to put anybody up on the roof to get the complete picture. But
most likely the building will require repairs or some sort of replacement to the pitched part of the roof out front, which covers perhaps 20 percent of the entire roof area. Windows will need a bit of work, but the original fl oor can be saved.
Lein said the building has been va-cant for close to seven years, but King County has kept the heat, the lights, and the air conditioning in working condition throughout that span.
“Th ere’s been no mold found, and it’s really in amazing shape,” Lein said. “It’s pretty much just what they did to it over the years with tenant improve-ments through the ’80s and ’70s.”
“Do we know how much of this
area is going to be devoted to the arts center?” asked Councilman Bob Baggett.
“Not really,” Lein responded. “I’m sure a percentage of it will be … prob-ably 50 percent, I would guess, but there have been a number of plans and requests for space come in from diff erent parts of the city, so it’s all under study and review.”
Th e building, which is on the national and state historical registries, started out in 1937 as the Auburn Post Offi ce. King County acquired it in 1963 when the new post offi ce was built on 3rd Street.
In 2009, King County put the Carnegie building up for sale on the open market.
At the time, the City, in its de-termination to lease the building, consistently reminded county leaders why Andrew Carnegie had built and donated it in the fi rst place, and what he intended it to stay in perpetuity – a general community benefi t.
King County’s asking price at the time was a bit more than what the City was off ering to lease it for – the same one buck for which King County had acquired it.
“As most of you know, it has been the desire of the City Council and the City to own that building for several years, but the price was prohibitive,” said Mayor Nancy Backus. “It started out three or four years ago at $900,000, and that was just not palatable to any of us who were on the council at that time. And over the course of the last four years, I won’t say that we wore them down, but we wore them down, and King County has been very gracious as of late to allow us this purchase price of $350,000.”
City agrees to buy old Public Health building

FOR THE REPORTER
Th e state’s proposed Puget Sound Gateway proj-ect for Highway 167 and State Route 509 ranks as one of the 12 most wasteful highway expansion projects in the nation, according to a recent study by the United States Public Interest Re-search Group.
Th e new study details how despite America’s mas-sive repair and maintenance backlog, and in defi ance of America’s changing transportation needs, state governments across the country, including Wash-ington state, continue to spend billions each year on new and wider highways, according to a Jan. 19 me-dia release about the study. Th e study shows how some of these highway projects are outright boondoggles.
“Washington state con-tinues to prioritize wasteful highway expansion projects that fail to eff ectively address congestion while leaving our roads and bridges to crumble,” said Bruce Speight,
WashPIRG Foundation executive director. “Th is in turn saddles future genera-tions with massive repair and maintenance backlogs that only grow more painful and expensive to fi x the longer we wait to do so.”
Th e Puget Sound Gate-way project will cost an estimated $2.8 billion and expand Highway 167 in Tacoma and State Route 509 from SeaTac to Kent at Interstate 5.
According to the most recent federal data, 22 percent of major roads in Washington state are in poor condition. However, the state continues to focus on highway expansion, spending an average of 84 percent of available funding on expansion and only 16 percent on repair. At the same time, transportation behavior is changing.
“Th e last thing that Washington needs now is another highway boondog-gle,” said Clark Williams-Derry, a senior researcher with the Seattle-based Sightline Institute.
Research group calls Puget Sound Gateway project a ‘boondoggle’

a young age. … It’s just crazy. It’s a whirlwind. It’s an honor.”
Seifert replied: “It’s an honor. … From this (scholarship program) you learn so much more about yourself, who you want to be and what you aspire to be.”
Werden and Seifert auto-matically qualify for the Miss Washington Pageant later this year. Th e Miss Auburn program, sponsored by the Auburn Noon Lions Club, is an offi cial preliminary to the Miss Washington and Miss America scholarship pageants.
Arden McCarthy was fi rst-runner-up, Angela Suresh took second runner-up and Whitney Van Vlett fi nished as third runner-up from a fi eld of nine Miss Auburn contestants.
Werden sang a moving ren-dition of “Th ere’s Always Me” from the American jukebox musical, “All Shook Up”. She also shone when she carefully answered a “wild-card” ques-tion picked from a bowl and posed by 2015 Miss Auburn Morgan Warren during the on-stage interview segment.
Who will you vote for this presidential election, Werden was asked.
“I turn 18 in June,” she said. “I am going with Dr. Ben Carson.”
Werden ran on the platform of breast cancer awareness, a crusade made personal because her two grandmothers have faced the disease. Th e progno-sis is good for both of them, she said.
Werden, who graduates with honors this spring, plans to pursue a communications de-gree with the thought of some-
day becoming a tour director at a museum or national park. Werden, daughter of Tina and Max Werden, was sponsored by Don Small & Sons.
“I thought my chances were good … any one of us could have won the crown,” Werden said. “My confi dence and my faith (pulled me through). I have strong faith and morals, and I stick to what I believe.”
In the teen competition, which attracted 10 contestants, Alexis Florence was fi rst run-ner-up, followed by McKenna Webb (second runner-up) and Skylar Erickson (third runner-up).
But Seifert stood out. A classically trained soprano,
Seifert sang a rousing rendition of a Puccini opera selection during the talent segment last Friday night. She has been singing and playing the piano since she was young.
She competed on the platform of combating teen depression.
Seifert, daughter of Barbie and Mike Seifert, plans to study psychology and business in college. Auburn Chevrolet was her sponsor.
Miss Auburn contestants were scored and judged the fol-lowing way: private interview 25 percent; lifestyle and fi tness in swimsuit 15 percent; talent 35 percent; on-stage interview 5 percent; and evening wear 20 percent.
McCarthy and Jayni Bohan-non earned People’s Choice Awards in a two-night vote from the audience. Proceeds from the $1 ballots went to the Auburn Food Bank. All told, the award generated $3,395 for the food bank.

Q U O T E O F N O T E : “It means so much to me, just having it on my head. I’ve been involved with this program at such a young age. ... It’s just crazy. It’s a whirlwind. It’s an honor.” – Newly crowned Miss Auburn Cami Werden
Enough with tax increases, vote no on levy
I see letters pro and con con-cerning our upcoming school levy. According to supporters, the levy replaces an expiring levy and won’t raise our taxes.
My property taxes went up more than 16 percent last year alone. Voting against the levy means next year’s 16-percent increase could be slightly lower. With such a large in-crease, there is no shortage of funds. Our legislators need to take money from one pocket and put it in the other pocket. Th ey make the laws, they can change funding sources.
Old folks who bought their homes 40 years ago and live on fi xed incomes cannot aff ord this. Who cares if grandma and grandpa have to choose between food or medicine, as long as Billy can play sports and Suzy can play the violin at school?
I’m not telling renters that voting no on the levy means your rent won’t increase. It will still increase, just not as much. Landlords pass on tax increas-es to renters, in addition to the rising rents.
I plan to vote no on the levy. We have to control our taxes. How many people got a raise this year? Can you aff ord to
constantly keep paying more? I live on a budget. I can’t go ask for a raise every time I want more stuff . We need to live within our means.
I can picture myself retired in a few years, living in Florida with cheap housing and low taxes, sitting on my porch at sunset, sipping a cold beer. On a quiet night you can hear the Auburn homeowners, 3,000 miles away, squealing like a pig when they get their property tax bills in the mail.– Dennis Doucette

Battle for control with my demon dog, Yodie
Rules are a funny thing.Rules, laws and all the things our moth-
ers told us we had to do oft en bring out late stages of lunacy. Th at is certainly not the case with me.
When it comes to rules I fi rmly believe we must clearly understand each rule and enforce all rules come what may.
Let me describe a scene that happened to me recently to illustrate my point about fol-lowing and enforcing the rules.
I was getting ready to leave for one of the newspaper offi ces where I spend my days
aggravating everyone within reach. I was late, but I wanted to make sure I took some food for the road. For some reason, when I am driv-ing, I get hungry. I was grabbing stuff from the refrigerator and tossing it my bag when Yodie, the
demon Yorkie, sidled up next to me, acting like she was my loyal companion for eternity.
Yodie is my daughter’s dog. Katy allows me the privilege of taking care of Yodie when it is time for my daughter to do fun things. I think I may have done something fun once, but I’m not sure. Th e word fun makes me twitch and see squiggly snakes fl oating around in front of my right eye.
I found an old carrot in the back drawer of my refrigerator. Finding old food like that always makes me feel like a rule follower. Instead of tossing things out, I eat them. It’s like cleaning up my plate. Even if it makes me throw up a lot, I’m following rules be-cause it says to in the big rule book.
I was basking in this warm, fuzzy tidiness when the demon struck. I saw her run off into the living room and immediately knew she had stolen my carrot.
Before she could reach her hidey hole I swooped in and grabbed my carrot from the furry fi end. I rushed back protecting my car-rot and hid it in my bag.
What appears to be escaping Yodie’s cruddy cortex is I am vertically higher in the air. Th is is known as the rule of verticality, which means I get to be in charge. It is in the big rulebook. I have pointed this out to her numerous times and all I get is the look that says, “Aren’t I just the cutest little princess you’ve ever seen? Better say yes and give me a treat or I’m telling Katy and then – It’s off to the pecan factory for you.”
Aft er securing my orange stick of yummy in my food bag and placing it on the couch, I went to get my coat while keeping a vigilant eye on the evil one. She sat on the couch looking all innocent and hurt.

I took my eyes away for an Einstein instant and bang! Beelzebub streaked to my bag, grabbed the carrot and took off with it jammed in her mouth.
This was war.We raced around the
house at light speed. I finally outsmarted the four-legged
lupus, cut her off and trapped her in the living room. At first she flumped flat on the floor with the carrot under her giving me the, “What?” dog look.
How dumb does she think I am?
When I reached under her to grab the goods, she rolled over and gave me the, “I’m dying. Have you no-
ticed? Look at my cute little legs flop around. Katy is sure going to be mad” routine.
When that failed she tried the war-wound limp. That hasn’t worked in months.
The battle of wits ended with each of us scowling at one another as I backed out of the house with my wet, scarred carrot.
I had won the war, and enforced the rule of verticality.
The lesson is: rules are rules and must be properly understood and enforced.
Rules are a funny thing, and I still have my carrot.

Seattle King County REALTORS® recently considered an endorse-ment request from the Auburn Citizens for Schools Campaign. Among eight districts within the county with measures on the Feb. 9 ballot, they were the only group to partner with a realtor in seeking our support. Clearly, they are well organized and recognize the value of involving key stakeholders in this campaign for critical funding.
Realtors understand the impor-tance of supplementing state fund-ing for basic classroom needs, but as homeowners and taxpayers, we are also concerned about the “re-turn on investment.” Track records on academics and fiscal matters are also considered.
Residents in the Auburn School District should be proud of the dis-trict’s accomplishments in adapting to demographic shifts, particularly in serving the growing segment of English Language Learners and those facing economic challenges.
We are also impressed with the District’s strong career and techni-cal education programs and its achievements in having an unprec-edented number of historically un-derrepresented students succeeding in Advanced Placement courses.
Auburn voters should also appre-ciate the exemplary record of fiscal
management and accountability by district officials.
My colleagues at Seattle King County Realtors and I are pleased to add our endorsement to Au-burn’s Educational Program and Operations Replacement Levy. We urge readers to join us in voting yes on Feb. 9.– Roni Strupat, past president, Seattle King County Realtors
Let’s protect our kidsRep. Mark Hargrove says in his
newsletter that Rep. Laurie Jenkins of the 27th District, judiciary com-mittee chair, does not intend to schedule a hearing on HB 2529 ad-dressing gender-specific restrooms.
I urge everyone to contact her and their representatives to support this bill to protect children in the state of Washington.
The Human Rights Commission’s action providing pedophiles and other sex offenders even greater opportunities than they currently enjoy to prey on society is little more than an act of complicity.
The state’s current failure to adequately supervise the offend-ers its releases is atrocious enough without this enhancing their cur-rent opportunities.– Bob Zimmerman
What “is” really meansIn response to the Auburn Re-
porters’ online article, “Governor’s Clean Air Rule order draws Senate-bill opposition”, Jan. 20:
In using the term “carbon pol-lution,” Gov. Jay Inslee is using doublespeak. What the Merriam-Webster dictionary defines as “language used to deceive usually through concealment or misrepre-sentation of truth.”
“Carbon pollution” really means carbon dioxide (CO2), an invis-ible, odorless gas on which all life depends.
This is more than just an academic point. It is an example of how misleading language has poisoned the climate debate.
Calling CO2 “carbon pollution” encourages people to think of it as something dirty, like graphite or soot.
Calling CO2 by its proper name would help people remember that, regardless of its role in climate change, a topic of intense debate in the science community, it is really an invisible, odorless gas essential to plant photosynthesis. – Tom Harris, engineer, executive director, International Climate Science Coalition
[ LETTERS from page 5 ] in February. That means the new collection rate would begin midway through the 2016-17 school year. A simple major-ity of more than 50 percent is required to pass the levy.
If the measure fails, Spic-ciati said, the school district likely would rerun it in the April special election.
Property owners would pay an estimated $4.13 per $1,000 of assessed property value during the first year of the levy. Actual levy rates will depend on whether property value projections by the King County auditor come to fruition. Those projections were used in calcu-lating levy rate estimates.
The levy will collect $40.7 million in 2017, $43 million in 2018, $45.4 million in 2019 and $47.75 million in 2020. The total tax rate will remain level.
Estimated levy rates in 2018, 2019 and 2020 are $4.23, $4.34 and $4.43 per thousand.
Funds from the levy are used for all athletics and activities, special education, textbooks, supplies, counsel-ors, nurses, grounds, building maintenance, honors and Ad-vanced Placement education and transportation.
“We don’t feel we could do a sufficient special education program without levy dollars,” Spicciati said.
Thirteen percent of levy funding is dedicated special education. Athletics and activities receive the same amount. Many school districts use revenues generated from participation fees at the middle and high schools to defray costs to play sports. ASD does not. School board president Anne Baunach said her colleagues have discussed that numerous times, but they concluded that a pay-to-play system would prohibit some students from competing.
The majority of levy funds – 59 percent – are dedicated educational programs and operations. That includes additional teachers for a variety of programs and addi-tional textbooks and supplies, among other educational tools in classrooms.
Cindi Blansfield, the dis-trict’s assistant superintendent for business and operations, said the levy is a significant component of ASD’s budget, which is about $195.2 million this school year.

the City of Auburn, said Tuesday. “And what we are proposing for the board to consider in terms of how to spend that money is to focus it on street maintenance eff orts for appropriately-classifi ed roads.
“Under state law, we can’t spend it on every road type in the City. It generally has to be … collector or higher arterial roads in our city. So the roads that take more of the traffi c would be the roads eligible. By state law, we can’t spend it on residential streets,” Snyder said.
Th e meeting is at 5 p.m. at Auburn City Hall.
Th e board, which the City Council formed in 2011, is composed of the mayor and members of the seven-person City Council, but under state law it is a separate entity from the City Council, with its own taxing authority, and the mayor is its chairperson. Th e boundaries of the district encompass Auburn’s cur-rent city limits.
Should the board de-cide to implement the $20 vehicle license fee, several steps would follow. Th at is, aft er the resolution ac-tion, the actual collection
of those monies would not start for six months, and during that time the board would be required to work with the Depart-ment of Licensing and Department of Revenue to set up the necessary protocols and procedures.
“So, people wouldn’t necessarily see it show up as a charge when they are licensing their vehicles for a minimum of six months, per state law,” Snyder said.
Th e agenda of the TBD meeting calls as well for approval of the TBD’s 2015 Annual Report.
Th e funding mecha-nism for local streets, Save Our Streets, is an entirely separate entity from the TBD. Its schedule for resi-dential street fi xes in 2016 includes the following:
• F Street Southeast, from East Main Street to 4th Street Southeast: rebuild street, drainage and water, .24 miles, total cost $704,000.
• 21st Street Northeast, Auburn Way North to I Street Northeast: rebuild street and drainage, .1 miles, $271,000.
• 25th Street South-east (M Street Southeast to R Street Southeast): rebuild street, drainage, water and perform an LID survey for sewer, .25 mile, $872,000.

with a ribbon cutting ceremony, cake and tours of the facility.
Th e student union, which is named aft er the college’s fi rst president, re-places the Lindbloom Student Center, which had outgrown its capacity since it was built in 1971.
Th e $32.2 million project was funded by the college and by a self-
imposed fee voted on by students in May 2007.
Students played an important role in helping design the building, from providing input on what it should include, to the fi nishes in the building, to naming areas of the facility.
Students can relax in the Mount Tahoma Lounge or grab a bite to eat from Gator Grill, which will serve cafeteria meals, or the Daily Grind,
off ering coff ee house favorites. Th ey can work out using weights or
cardio machines in the Recreation and Athletic Center or shoot some hoops on the basketball court.
Th e building will house offi ces, including student life, diversity, equity and inclusion, athletics, conferences services and food services.
Construction on the facility began in the late fall of 2013.

Getting an associate degree from Green River College was a turning point for Angelica Gonzalez.
Gonzalez, 29, gradu-ated from Green River in 2008 and transferred to the University of Wash-ington Tacoma, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in political science. She is working toward a master’s degree in public administration from Grand Canyon Univer-sity and plans to attend law school at Seattle University in the fall.
Growing up, Gonzalez said she had no hope of going to college. Gonzalez struggled with homeless-ness, drug use, crime and generational poverty. She
had her fi rst child at 17. “I wasn’t an ‘A’ student,”
she said. One of Gonzalez’ teach-
ers at West Auburn High School encouraged her to go to Green River aft er gradu-
ation. Without that op-
portunity, Gonzalez said she wouldn’t be where she is today.
“I can’t even believe everything I had gone through to where I came to what I do now,” she
said. Gonzalez shared her story
at the Washington State As-sociation of College Trustees (ACT) Transforming Lives Awards dinner on Sunday in Olympia. She was one of fi ve current or former commu-nity college students from throughout the state given the Transforming Lives Award
this year. Started in 2012, the
Transforming Lives Awards program gives commu-nity college and technical schools in Washington the opportunity to nominate a current or former student whose life has been trans-formed by pursuing higher education at their institu-tion.
As a winner of the award, Gonzalez gets $500 from ACT.
Green River College’s Board of Trustees nominat-ed Gonzalez for the award due in part to the example she sets for other students.
“Th e board is proud of the thousands of graduates who have earned degrees at Green River Community College,” Board of Trustees President Pete Lewis wrote in a nomination letter for Gonzalez. “We know that
there are countless students who had transformative experiences and have found success at universities and in the work place because of their Green River education. Angelica has distinguished herself in deciding to follow her passion for serving and helping others by advocat-ing for social justice.”
Gonzalez isn’t the fi rst Green River student to receive the Transforming Lives Award.
In 2013 former student Donald Fleming was given the honor.
Gonzalez attributed part of her success in college to the personalized support she received at Green River.
“I believe if I would have went in to a bigger univer-sity, I wouldn’t have done as well,” she said.

Two occupants in a 1999 Mazda 626 were shot multiple times in an ap-parent road-rage incident at about 10:30 p.m. Mon-day on southbound State Route 167 near South 277th Street, according to the State Patrol.
State troopers know that the suspect vehicle was a dark passenger car with at least three occupants, one wearing a red bandana.
Troopers found the
Mazda in the ditch at the entrance ramp from 15th Street Northwest in Auburn, although the shooting apparently occurred closer to South 277th Street.
Th e Mazda had been shot at least 13 times.
Th e driver and a front-seat passenger were shot in their lower extremities and were taken to Har-borview Medical Center in Seattle with non-life-threatening injuries.
Th e Mazda’s driver is a 21-year-old Roy man and
the passenger is a 20-year-old Tacoma woman.
Th e two rear-seat pas-sengers were not injured, according to the State Patrol.
It wasn’t immediately clear what led to the con-frontation, but witnesses say the incident occurred several miles back on SR 167 when one vehicle may have cut off the other right before both vehicles began driving aggres-sively, according to the State Patrol.
Witnesses say the oc-cupants displayed “gang signs” right before the shooting started.
Southbound SR 167 was closed from South 277th Street to State Route 18 for approximately four
hours so that troop-ers and a Seattle Police Department bomb-and-arson-tracking dog could search the freeway for evidence.
Any witness to this incident is asked to call State Patrol detective Russ Haake at 425-401-7717.

Auburn Police say that after Muckleshoot Ca-sino security ousted James Sohappy from the casino on Jan. 5, he burst into a man’s home near the casino, ran amok, assaulted the man, and later punched a police officer.
The King County Pros-ecutor on Jan. 8 charged the Auburn man, 24, with first-degree burglary and with third-degree assault of
a police officer. Sohappy was arraigned
Jan. 21 and pleaded not guilty. A case setting hear-ing is Feb. 3 at the Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent. In the meantime, So-happy continues to cool his heels in King County jail on $25,000 bail.
Here is what happened, according to the Auburn Police Department’s Certifi-cation for Determination of Probable Cause.
At about 11 p.m. on Jan. 5, Muckleshoot Casino
security asked a severely-inebriated Sohappy to leave. According to the police account, Sohappy then made his way on foot to the Green Tree Condos northeast of the casino and hopped the fence to get in.
Shortly afterward, according to the police account, a 74-year-old resident of the Green Tree Condos heard an unknown male causing a ruckus out-side of a neighbor’s apart-ment. The unknown male then pounded and kicked
at the resident’s own front door, demanding to be let in. The resident told the male to leave and advised him that he had the wrong place. Finally, convinced that the guy outside was going to get in anyway, the resident opened the door and pepper sprayed him in the face to drive him back.
According to the police account, Sohappy burst in and ran around like a wild-
man, “damaging the walls and doors and puking.”
The unhappy resident later told police that So-happy had assaulted him in some way when he was in the apartment, and that he, the resident, had struck Sohappy with a fire poker to incapacitate him.
Police received the resi-dent’s call for help at 11:45 p.m.
In the meantime, Sohap-
py returned to the casino’s garage where a group of po-lice officers was waiting for him. He tried to run away and assaulted one of the of-ficers but was captured.
According to the police account, the elderly resident later positively identified Sohappy as the man who had burst into his apart-ment.
Sohappy’s criminal his-tory includes convictions for unlawful possession of a firearm, theft and posses-sion of marijuana.

REPORTER STAFF
State Sen. Pam Roach has been dismissed from a leg-islative task force on human trafficking after “numerous complaints” surfaced that she attacked and verbally abused victims of sex trafficking at a meeting last month.
In a letter sent Monday, Lt. Gov. Brad Owen said he was removing Roach, R-Sumner, from the task force after receiving complaints about her inappropriate conduct at a Dec. 14 bipar-tisan Human Trafficking Task Force meeting.
“You attacked agency staff, persons both present and absent, stakehold-ers and persons who have miraculously survived being victims of traffick-ing,” Owen wrote in a letter obtained by the Auburn Re-porter. “ … I am horrified that your abuse extended to the survivors of trafficking.
“Among other fictions, you claimed that sexually trafficked and homeless youth are deliberately try-ing not to fit in with their families by tattooing their faces and getting pierc-
ings. Without any apparent basis you minimized the exploitation of sexually traf-ficked minors by alleging that they probably spend their money on drugs, and asked if the labor trafficked persons were ‘illegals,’ ” Owen wrote.
Those comments “dimin-ish the horrors of trafficking by attacking its victims and consequently erode support for the courageous efforts to combat it,” Owen wrote.
Roach denied being abusive toward trafficking victims.

Both have Northwest connections and worldwide reach. Both are humble, passionate professionals who enjoy sharing remark-able music.
Grammy-nominated guest conductor Alastair Willis and award-winning composer Daniel Ott come home this
weekend to join the Auburn Symphony Orchestra in a special, season-opening pro-gram that honors the city for its support of the symphony since its inception 20 years ago.
Th e orchestra – featur-ing Ott’s original score and Christina Siemens’ soloistic talent – performs symphon-ic concerts at the remodeled Auburn Performing Arts
Center, 702 Fourth St. NE. Th e concert, A World
Premiere Tribute to Auburn, begins at 7 p.m. Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday.
“Th e opportunity to work with musicians, not in the pit but in a concert situation, is something new to me,” said Willis, music director of the Illinois Symphony Orchestra and
a frequent guest of Stewart Kershaw, ASO’s found-ing conductor and music director who retired last year aft er 19 years with the symphony. “I’m really ex-cited. Th e music is terrifi c. … It will be a new old ex-perience, I guess, when you consider the history and the musicians who I know and love so much.”
Willis, who has been an
associate conductor of the Seattle Symphony, oft en conducts the Pacifi c North-west Ballet (PNB) orches-tra. He has guest conducted orchestras throughout the country, many in major cities, and throughout the world, including Europe and China.
His recording of Ravel’s “L’Enfant et les Sortileges” with the Nashville Symphony and Opera for Naxos was Grammy nominated for Best Classical Album in 2009.
Born in Acton, Mass., Willis lived with his family in Moscow for fi ve years before settling in Surrey, England. He received his bachelor’s degree with honors from England’s Bris-tol University, an educa-tion degree from Kingston University, and a masters of music degree from Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music.
Willis and his wife and
1-year-old daughter live in Seattle, Willis’ adopted home for 16 years.
Asked to lead a repu-table orchestra close to home, Willis jumped at the chance.
“I love working with musicians who are curious, open and eager and love what they do, which is the epitome of the PNB orches-tra and the Auburn Sym-phony Orchestra,” Willis said. “What makes it extra special is when you connect with a community who’s also curious and open and eager to hear (the music). And that’s what Stewart has created in Auburn.”
Willis and the orchestra welcome the opportunity to present the world premiere of Ott’s original score, “In Pieces”, which commemo-rates the city for its support of the arts. It is a pure, sym-phonic, 18-minute work performed in three move-ments. Th e work, which the Seattle Commissioning Club entrusted especially to the Auburn Symphony, is a refl ective arrangement of optimistic and dark times in society.

mA U B U R N -
A Puyallup native, Ott studied at the Curtis Institute of Music and the Juilliard School. He serves today on the faculty of Juil-liard and Fordham Univer-sity, where he is an assistant professor of music theory and composition.
An award-winning contemporary composer, Ott has been recognized numerous times for his work. He is a 2013 recipient of the Goddard Lieberson Fellowship from the Ameri-can Academy of Arts and Letters and has received its Charles Ives Scholarship.
Ott lives in New York City with his wife, who is also from Puyallup, and their two children.
Ott, whose mother was a member of the Auburn
Symphony, is excited about the chance to come home and celebrate his new music.
“I’m really looking for-ward it,” he said. “I’m just grateful for the opportunity to write orchestral work, to have an orchestral work commissioned. It is an in-creasingly rare thing. … I’m grateful to work with these musicians. They are really world-class.
”I’m just excited about the opportunity to write orchestra music and hear it,” he added, “I’m really looking forward to these performances and a chance to come back home to see everybody, too. The honor’s mine, really.”
Ott’s work has impressed Willis.
“He’s a very clever, interesting composer, and
that he’s going to be there is fantastic,” Willis said. “The opportunity to do a new world premiere com-mission is rare and a real honor.”
Works by Brahms and Shostakovich, including the Piano Concerto No. 2 fea-turing Siemens, complete the program.
“She’s one of the most amazing musicians I’ve ever met,” Willis said of Siemens. “Not only is she an incredible ballet studio pianist … but she also plays concertos. She also has an amazing voice. She’s one of these all-around talents that Seattle needs to be more proud of.”
The City of Auburn, Boe-ing, and the Seattle Com-missioning Club support the concert.
A free pre-concert lecture begins 45 minutes before each concert.
Following each concert, Ott and Willis will be at a special reception honoring the City at the Gathering Space at Messiah Lutheran Church, across the street from the PAC. Tickets are $10 per person, with lim-ited availability.
Reserved seats for the concert are $35 for adults, $28 for seniors and $10 for students.

Auburn Mountainview’sRyan Lacey scored a game-high 25 points as the Lions stayed in a fi rst-place tie in
South Puget Sound League 3A play with a 52-37 win Tuesday
night against Sumner.

Ravens clinch league title
As Auburn Riverside’s girls basketball coaches en-tered a silent locker room, they asked for more noise.
Aft er all, the Ravens had clinched the South Puget Sound League 3A cham-pionship with a 50-24 win Tuesday night at Bonney Lake.
Th e mood inside might have appeared somber, but Auburn Riverside junior point guard McKenzi Williams, who scored a game-high 19 points, said that was only because a brief celebration already had concluded.
“Before he came in there, we were very excited,” said Williams, referring to coach Derek Pegram. “We had music going and were banging on lockers. We were super excited. We’ve been waiting for this mo-ment all season.”
Pegram said it offi cially is the second consecutive league title for the Ravens (17-0 overall, 11-0 league) because the SPSL 3A does
not recognize head-to-head tiebreakers. Th at means that Auburn Riverside was the co-league champion last season with Sumner, even though the Ravens lost both games during the regular-season series.
Capturing the outright league championship against the Panthers (10-7, 8-3) was not as easy as the fi nal score indicated. Bonney Lake reduced its defi cit to 22-20 midway through the third quar-ter on a basket by senior forward Emily Stonerock. But Williams, who helped force 22 turnovers that fed steal-for-transition layups, helped Auburn Riverside fi nish the game on a 28-4 run.
“We started slower than we wanted to, but we always fi nd a way to get it back,” Williams said. “We turned it up in the second half, locked down on de-fense and got it back.”
Th at followed a recent trend of slow starts. On Jan. 15, the Ravens faced an

early 10-point defi cit before rallying to defeat Sumner 55-43. Auburn Riverside also struggled from the outset against Auburn Mountainview before win-ning 52-35 on Jan. 19.
“We’ve got to get it out faster,” Williams said. “We’re really good at fi nish-ing games, but we’ve got to pick it up from the start. We’ve got to come out with more energy and lockdown from there.”
Pegram said he conveyed the importance of a fast start because it was the fi nal regular-season game for fi ve Bonney Lake seniors.
“My thing is when you go to someone else’s place and it’s senior night, you’ve got to jump on them early because it’s emotional,” he said. “We had a really good opportunity to do that be-cause they had 14 points at halft ime. We could’ve been up by a lot more. We had to go in there at halft ime and
rally them up a little bit.”Even though the Ravens
started slow aft er the inter-mission, Williams felt that was a turning point.
“I would say halft ime was the most prominent one,” she said. “We just came in there before coach. It’s our choice if we want to win or not. We wanted to be back-to-back champs, so that’s what we went out and did.”
Pegram and Williams agreed that started on the defensive end. Auburn Riverside held the Panthers scoreless in the fourth quarter.
“She plays amazing defense,” Pegram said of Williams. “She’s the most athletic kid on the court every time she steps on it. She makes really good passes, too. When our kids get open shots most of the time it’s because McKenzi got them that way.”
Or fi nished it herself.Williams has always pos-
sessed elite speed – she was a sprinter on the Ravens’
track team as a freshman – but Pegram said she has learned to better use that advantage through experi-ence.
“She really has improved with her left hand,” he said. “She gets girls twisted both ways, and she’s done a great job of fi nishing this year. When she goes to the bucket, in my mind, it’s two points without a doubt.”
And when Williams was not there to fi nish, 6-foot-3 junior center Faith Turner was. She fi nished with 10 points. Pegram said Turner has improved signifi cantly on the off en-sive end.
Williams agreed with that sentiment.
“With a big post like her and such a small guard like me … I know where I can fi nd her,” she said. “I always know where she’s going to be. We’ve got very good chemistry because we’ve been playing together so long.”
Pegram said Turner has
a diffi cult task on one side because the Ravens play a 2-3 zone defense, which forces players to drive to the basket. Despite that, he said Turner plays “dynamite” defense and does a good job avoiding foul trouble.
Auburn Riverside has just three regular-season games left , beginning at 7 p.m. Friday at Peninsula. Th ey open the postseason on a to-be determined date at home against the sixth-place team from either the SPSL 3A or Narrows 3A.
“It’s a comfort thing,” Pegram said. “We love to have our home crowd.”
