Meet new Premium Outlets General Manager Ed Huebner

By Valley Record Staff

Just three days into his new job as general manager of the North Bend Premium Outlets, midwest transplant Ed Huebner was getting ready for the late shift—6 p.m. to 6 a.m.—as part of the mall’s Thanksgiving rush.

The mall was open 36 hours straight, between Thanksgiving and end of day on Black Friday, Nov. 28. That weekend is typically one of the year’s busiest, second only to the weekend before Christmas.

PSE customers to share $59.2 million from sale

Puget Sound Energy announced last week “that customers will notice a pleasant surprise on their winter power bills: a one-time credit applied to December and January bills that will save the average residential electric customer about $40.”

The bill credit is the mechanism to be used to distribute

half of $109 million that resulted from the sale of PSE’s utility operations in Jefferson County, to all PSE customers.

A Sept. 11, press release from the Washington State Utilities and Transportation Commission, said that the company was ordered to credit customers after the utility had initially wanted to retain all but $15 million.

The company proposed that that portion be “returned to customers as a ‘voluntary sharing’ for the proceeds of this sale.” However, that figure was contested by state regulators. The utility was ordered to return one-half of the sales proceeds plus interest, to customers via the bill credit mechanism.

The total amount to be paid to PSE customers is $59.2 million, which includes interest that has accrued since the sale was finalized in 2010. The distribution will include every current PSE electric customer, both residential and business, to receive the credit.

Customers will not need to request the credit; it will automatically appear on their billing statements. Because of varying billing cycles, most customers will see a portion of the credit on their December statement, and the remainder on their January bill.

PSE provides electricity to more than 1.1 million custom-ers in eight counties in Western and Central Washington.

North Bend wins tattoo lawsuit,

ULID issue still pending


In its November 18 win in court, North Bend may finally have resolved an issue about sensitive uses in the city.

The win, against tattoo artist David Herman, supported the city’s move to restrict tattoo and piercing shops to a few locations and zones within the city. King County Superior Court Judge Barbara Linde dismissed Herman’s lawsuit, with prejudice, and issued an order prohibiting Herman from operating a tattoo business out of his North Bend home.

“North Bend has established the existence of a clear legal and equitable right to enforce the terms of its properly adopted ordinances, and to expect Herman to comply with those ordinances,” Judge Linde wrote in the injunction order.

North Bend’s City Council voted March 5, 2013, to prohibit any home-based businesses and specifically tattoo and pierc-ing parlors and medical marijuana groups, from operating in city residential zones that do not already allow the businesses. The action, passed as an emergency ordinance by a split vote of the council, resulted in an immediate ban on the home-based tattoo business Herman had planned to open April 1, 2013, on Ballarat Avenue, in the Downtown Commercial zone.

That zone did not allow tattooing, but did allow adult enter-tainment facilities with a conditional use permit.

It was also, said North Bend City Administrator Londi Lindell, a reflection of the city’s past decision to separate “sensitive uses” which also included adult entertainment and check-cashing businesses. Each type of business has a limited area of operation, as outlined in the city’s table of permissible uses.

On June 18, 2013, the council completed the emergency ordinance process, including two public hearings, with a regular amendment to the city’s zoning and table of permissible uses. The change banned tattooing and pierc-ing as home-based businesses throughout the city, but allowed them in parts of the Interchange Commercial and Interchange Mixed Use zones near North Bend’s freeway exits.

The city’s Planning Commission, asked to review the code following the March vote, recommended allowing tattooing in parts of the Downtown Commercial zone, but a majority of the council rejected the idea. The proposed changes from the planning commission would not have affected Herman’s shop, anyway.

Herman filed a lawsuit claiming more than $300,000 in damages from the city in October, and the case went to trial Sept. 12, 2014, concluding on Sept. 17.

“Mr. Herman was bringing a constitutional challenge because the art of tattooing is protected by the U.S. Constitution,” said Lindell.

The judge dismissed the case, and issued the injunction against Herman continuing to operate.

Herman has declined to comment on the issue. His com-pany website site indicates that he is no longer operating in the North Bend site, and is making plans to relocate to another city.

Utility district suitAnother lawsuit pending against North Bend is still in

litigation. Seven owners, representing about 20 properties in the city’s Utility Local Improvement District No. 6 have been suing the city for their high sewer assessments. The property owners claimed the city failed to follow procedure in updating its plans for the sewer system to serve the area, and thus the property assessments were incorrect.

The Washington Court of Appeal annulled their $1.5 million in assessments in October, 2013, but the city cor-rected its procedural error, then reassessed the properties. The group recently offered a settlement deal to the city, and the council voted at its Oct. 7 meeting to reject the group’s proposal and counter with an offer of $200,000 to fully settle the issue.

The city has not yet received a response.

Carnation police prop fails by just 27 votes


King County Elections officials certified the results of the Nov. 4 general election on Tuesday, Nov. 25. Final results followed early trends in the voting, with successful proposi-tions in North Bend and for the Si View Metropolitan Park District, and a rejected tax increase in Carnation.

The final tally for North Bend’s 0.1 percent sales tax increase for police and fire services was 64 percent (1,282 votes) in favor of the increase, to 36 percent (732 votes) opposed. Voter turnout was nearly 53 percent.

Si View’s one-year maintenance and operations levy had an overwhelming 73 percent approval rate, 3,981 “yes” votes to 1,444 “no’s.” Voter turnout was more than 53 percent.

In Carnation, Proposition 1 failed by only 27 votes, 297 opposed to 270 in favor. The city had the highest voter turnout of any local race, nearly 57 percent of voters.

The defeat was the city’s third failed attempt in recent years to gain voter approval on an increase for police services.

Carnation City Manager Ken Carter said the council has not dis-cussed the vote’s outcome since the results were certified, but said the existing police services contract for the city will not change.

“We’re going to do the best we can with the resources we have,” Carter said, adding that the King County Sheriff ’s Office and Deputy Scott Allen, who is the city’s dedicated police officer, have served the city well.

Statewide, results are still unof-ficial until they are certified on Dec. 4. Currently, the results posted on the Secretary of State’s website show a big win for incumbent District 8 U.S. Representative Dave Reichert, with 63.27 percent of the vote. His opponent, Jason Ritchie, had 36.73 percent. District 1 incumbent Representative Suzan delBene also won her race handily, with 55 per-cent of the vote to her opponent Pedro Celis’ 45 percent.

Incumbents also appear to be winning the state legislature races. District 5 Position 1 Representative Jay Rodne has 57.64 percent of votes, to 42.36 percent for his chal-lenger, Essie Hicks, and Position 2 Representative Chad Magendanz has 59 percent of the vote, to 41 percent for his opponent, David Spring.

Voters still seem almost equally divided on Initiative 1351, regarding reduced class sizes in public schools, but clear majorities have emerged in other measures on gun control and house advisory bills.

Initiative 1351 is passing with almost 51 percent of the vote. While the count is close, 1,052,519 to 1,012,958, it is not close enough to trigger an automatic recount. Recounts can be requested by elec-tions officials, but are automatically required if the difference in results is less than half of 1 percent, and less than 2,000 votes.

Results from the related gun-con-trol measures, 591 and 594, show voters supporting increased back-ground checks and other gun control measures. I-591, which limited the state to the same background check standard as federal law, was failing with 55 percent no votes. I-594, call-ing for increased background checks and other rules for gun transfers, was passing with 60 percent of the vote.

Two advisory votes, non-binding measures to allow the state legis-lature to gauge public feelings on specific issues, were both passing, too. Advisory Vote No. 8, for a tax on marijuana producers (more specifi-cally, the elimination of a tax credit), was supported by 54.4 percent of vot-ers. Advisory Vote No. 9 regarding taxes on leasing tribe-owned prop-erty, was also passing, with 55 percent of the vote.

Overall, the state saw 54 percent voter turnout, and 53 percent in King County.

Huebner grew up in Indiana, and comes to North Bend from a position as marketing director for a Simon Propety Group mall in Indianapolis. North Bend is his first mana-gerial role. Simon operates 287 malls in the U.S.

With the busy shopping season underway, Huebner answered questions from the Valley Record about his role and what’s happening at the stores he’s newly managing.

What’s your first priority as new manager for the outlets? What has you excited about this job? “My first priority as the new North Bend Premium Outlets’ general manager is to help guide the property through a successful holiday shopping season. I’m excited to be in the great Pacific Northwest after growing up in the Midwest, and look forward to being at North Bend Premium Outlets.Having worked as a marketing director for Simon Property Group has given me a very good foundation to be the general manager. I have been a member of several very successful mall management teams over the past years and have worked under some very good managers that I learned a lot from.”

Were any new stores introduced recent-ly? Is the lineup of stores likely to change in the near future? “North Bend Premium Outlets is currently almost at full occupancy, and

has welcomed quite a few new stores in 2014, including Hot Topic, Rue 21, Loft, Torrid, and Go Calendars & Games.”

What makes a ‘real’ shop-ping experience better than just buying every-thing online? “Black Friday is easily one of the busiest shopping days of the year for the Premium Outlets. Simon’s holiday survey found that 50 percent (of respondents) will shop on Black Friday. So far, shopper traffic has been terrific (79 percent started their shopping before Black Friday and 20 percent before September) and we certainly hope it con-tinues. Most of Simon’s Premium Outlets had crowded parking lots and long lines of customers ready to shop at least one to two

hours before opening on Thanksgiving last year. “We’re confident (our) shopping centers are well equipped to provide cus-tomers the amenities they need to complete their holiday shopping—and enjoy some social experiences with family and friends at the same time. Not surprisingly, one in seven men will wait until December to start their shopping. The Saturday before Christmas – this year December 20 – is typically dubbed the ‘busiest shopping day’ as many take the last-minute approach to their holiday shopping, still buying gifts as stores turn out the lights. So, we expect to see many customers shopping throughout the season and even on December 24.“• North Bend Premium Outlets are located at 461 South Fork Avenue S.W., North Bend.

Get in the spirit: Visit your

downtowns this holiday weekendCommunity celebrations help us

connect, support our merchants at an important time of year

The Christmas carols started the week-end before Thanksgiving. The holiday lights went up on

the street poles last Monday. The holiday season is firmly upon us.

It’s a bit funny how every Valley community this year is holding its civic tree light-ing ceremonies on the very same afternoon.

Yes, Fall City, Carnation, Snoqualmie and North Bend all hold their celebrations this coming Saturday, Dec. 6.

North Bend’s tree lights up at 5:15 p.m., with an all-town party, downtown. Snoqualmie’s is at 6:30 p.m., with fun, music and song at downtown Railroad Park, with Santa arriving at the gazebo to light the tree. In Fall City, the annual school music program is 4 to 5 p.m. at the Fall City Elementary School gymnasium. After the music, the whole crowd walks down to the Art Park, at the corner of the Fall City-Redmond Road and 335th Place, to light the tree.

The Christmas in Carnation event is 4 to 6 p.m. at Tolt Commons, the park that typi-cally hosts the Carnation farmer’s market. A tree lighting is at 5 p.m., Santa arrives at 5:15 p.m. to meet the kids.

The Salish Lodge and Spa at Snoqualmie Falls also holds a public tree lighting at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Also, don’t forget the Winter Magic festival, kicking off with a special party Sunday, Dec. 14, in downtown Snoqualmie. That event includes an ice rink, pony rides, games and a visit by two ‘ice princesses.’

Word is that Evening Magazine will also be coming to do a segment on the rink, Dec. 19, so there’s an additional reason to come check out that event, and for downtown business owners to dress up the community.

Small-town holiday celebrations really show-case the best of the local. You get to to meet your neighbors, see the spirit of those around you, and witness how we can draw together for good reasons.

Plus, the economy is still tough out there, and local businesses are always grateful for our support.

Downtown celebrations draw people closer to their business districts, and give us new reasons to explore and discover what our communities have to offer. So, when you sip your cocoa and sing a carol in days ahead at the Snoqualmie, Fall City, Carnation or North Bend tree lighting ceremonies, remember that these activities don’t happen for free, or in isolation. Shop local, and keep such blessings flowing around the Valley.

“Remember the big blackout a few years ago? We have a box with all the stuff we need, little radio, candles. So I’m ready.”

Are you prepared for bad winter weather?

Thursday, Nov. 30, 1989• There were weary hearts among the many friends and rela-tives of Breanna Bates Monday morning, fol-lowing a last-minute decision not to proceed with the Valley teen’s heart transplant opera-tion. Bates, 17, was just accepted into the transplant program at UW Medical Center.

Thursday, Dec. 3, 1964• You never miss the water ‘til the well runs dry—and North Bend residents have had to manage with a “dry well” since 3 o’clock Monday afternoon, when an accumula-tion of debris carried by rushing water into the reservoir closed off the supply to the town’s gravity flow system. Thursday was the expected day for a return of water flow.• Judie Moses of Snoqualmie Falls, whose great-great-grandfather was the well-known Chief Sanowa of the Upper Snoqualmie Tribe, joined Gov. Rosellini to cut the ribbon and open the Echo Lake Highway (now State Route 18).

Haunting the great detectiveScrooge meets Sherlock Holmes in Valley Center Stage’s holiday play, Dec. 4-20

BY SETH TRUSCOTTEditor

Memorizing his lines on a smart phone, ‘Professor Moriarty’ is looking worse for wear. The brilliant, evil counterpart to Sherlock Holmes, Moriarty’s clothes are torn to tatters—shredded in a plunge off Switzerland’s Reichenbach Falls. In point of fact, he’s a ghost.

Moriarty, played by Rich Wiltshire, and other spirits, portrayed by local actors, haunt fic-tion’s great detective, Dickens style, in Valley Center Stage’s holiday production, “Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Christmas Carol.” The show opens Thursday, Dec. 4, and runs through Dec. 20.

Holmes and Charles Dickens’ Ebenezer Scrooge meld in this show, written by veteran Seattle playwright John Longenbaugh.

After failed attempts by Dr. Watson to cheer Holmes into celebrating the holiday sea-son, the unrepentant, ill-tempered sleuth is forced to deduce the facts and solve the most important mystery of his life. Holmes is helped in his introspective detective work by three unexpected callers from his past, present and future.

Valley Center Stage regular Brendan Elwood plays the title character.

Genre mixing“It’s kind of a twist,” said Scott Friedman of Snoqualmie, who plays several roles in the show.

“It has a little bit of suspense, excitement, stuff that people can relate to from two great stories.”“It’s an allegory about how important people are in one’s life,” says North Bend actor Rene

Schuchter, who plays Dr. Watson, Holmes’ down-to-earth sidekick. “When people care about you, that’s meaningful—and not to throw it away.”

Valley actor Craig Ewing was part of the reading group that met this summer to choose the season’s new shows.

“This is one, out of all that we read, that jumped out the most,” he said of ‘Sherlock.’ So chances are good that the Valley’s Holmes fans will be intruiged.

Board member “Fred Rappin and I were the postering people,” hang-ing flyers before the show, Ewing said. “We did all of North Bend, Snoqualmie and the Ridge. We’d go into various places. People see Sherlock Holmes, and some of them light up, because they’re Holmes fans. When we tell them it’s a mashup of Sherlock Holmes and ‘A Christmas Carol,’ they are especially curious.”

In Brief

He did not appear in court as ordered on Sept. 17, nor for his October 2 arraign-ment, or his Oct. 23 competency hearing.

The court will reconsider Kramer’s mental state within 90 days.

According to court documents, the incident for which Kramer could face felony assault charges began at around 10:30 p.m., Monday, Sept. 15, when a Woodinville resident called 911 about someone in a dark SUV, driving past his home and shooting paintballs at the house and himself. The caller reported the license number, which police identi-fied as belonging to Kramer.

Shooting incidentAt 10:46 p.m., Duvall Police were noti-

fied of a subject in a dark SUV shoot-ing paintballs on Duvall’s Main Street. Officers Joe Eaton and Mike DeBock responded to the call, locating a 1999 black Chevy Tahoe in the parking lot of a church on Cherry Valley Road, across the street from Cherry Valley Elementary School.

Officer Eaton reported that the man was standing outside his vehicle when Eaton drove into the parking lot, but got in the vehicle and attempted to drive off. Eaton activated his lights, and then his siren, but the man ignored him, and drove to an exit that was blocked by posts. He then backed the Tahoe up and into Eaton’s vehicle, then drove north in the parking lot. Eaton followed.

Officer DeBock arrived during this time and parked his vehicle to partially block the exit from the church’s north parking lot, court papers state. He then got out of his vehicle and drew his weap-

on. The Tahoe continued toward him, around the police car, then it stopped about seven feet away. The driver then pointed a handgun at DeBock and fired one bullet, which hit DeBock in the left leg, passing through the front of his thigh. DeBock returned fire, then got into his vehicle to pursue the Tahoe.

Eaton, also following, said he briefly lost sight of the Tahoe after it exited the parking lot, but it appeared to be waiting on Cherry Valley Road, driving off again after he had seen it. Eaton and DeBock continued the pursuit southbound on S.R. 203, and DeBock gave up the pur-suit when other agencies were called in, returning to the church parking lot for medical attention.

A sheriff ’s deputy, Officer Gulla, reported that he picked up the chase at the Tolt River Bridge in Carnation, and was driving directly in front of Kramer’s vehicle when a bullet shattered his back window. Gulla was not injured, but the Tahoe was not stopped until police dis-abled it with spike strips in the 5500 block of Preston-Fall City Road.

According to the statement of probable cause, Kramer then exited the vehicle, with a .45 caliber handgun and a knife. Police fired non-lethal rounds at him, but they appeared to have no effect. The county’s SWAT team was called in during the two- to three-hour standoff with Kramer. He fired his weapon several more times but not at any of the officers.

He eventually surrendered, and police determined his identity. He also has an alias, Steven Lamoureux.

Officer DeBock was treated and released from the hospital within a few hours. He returned to duty in early November.

Kramer is in custody in the King County Jail. Bail has been set at $1 mil-lion.

SHOOTING FROM 1

County checks out landslide areas for floodplainsThe King County Flood Control District announced on November 14 the completion of the first phase of a two-year investigation to update landslide hazard information for King County’s river valleys and floodplains.“This investigation is the first step in assuring that we have the most current information to protect people, prop-erty and critical public infrastructure,” said King County Flood Control District Chairman Reagan Dunn.Earlier this year, King County began using light detection and ranging technology, also known as LIDAR, to identify poten-tial landslide hazards along major rivers and significant tributaries in both cities and unincorporated areas.“With new technology we can see more clearly where there are risks of potential landslides, and gather the kind of information that will protect homes and lives,” said King County Executive Dow Constantine. “This is essential work that makes us safer and more resilient as a community, and I thank flood district supervisors for underwriting this effort.”The data will be further refined with additional information and consolidated into a geographic information sys-tem database. No regulatory changes are planned at this time.The work to date has focused on identifying areas of past instability, because such areas are sometimes subject to further movement. While many such areas are located in undeveloped portions of King County, they are also pres-ent in areas with more intense land use. King County has provided briefings to the 11 communities where areas of apparent past instability have been mapped: Snoqualmie, Issaquah, Woodinville, Skykomish, Renton, Bothell, Kenmore, Tukwila, SeaTac, Auburn and Kent.For more information about the Phase 1 investigation or to sign up for an email notification when Phase 2 is completed, go to kingcounty.gov/rivers. Contact the King County River and Floodplain Management office at (206) 477-7812.

Auditor named to overlook Metro Transit budgetThe Metropolitan King County Council in November unanimously approved an ordinance, authored and proposed by Councilmember Rod Dembowski, which creates a full-time, ongoing and independent auditor of Metro Transit. “Government must be accountable, efficient, and transparent,” said Dembowski. “I authored this legislation because county residents were loud and clear in their message that ongoing, comprehensive, performance and financial auditing of Metro Transit is necessary.” Previous audits of Metro Transit have found savings and areas for improvement, according to the county. An audit completed in 2009 resulted in approximately $800 million in net positive impact for the agency. “We have repeatedly demonstrated that audits save money and improve accountability,” said Dembowski. “Audits also increase transparency that fosters much-needed trust with the public. The public needs to know that their tax dollars and fares are being spent wisely, and I believe this legislation will increase public confidence in Metro.” In reviewing Metro’s budget, which approaches $1 billion annually, the new independent auditor will make recommen-dations for continued improvement and identification of potential savings and efficiencies. The auditor will present his or her recommendations for improved operations to Metro Transit staff and policy-makers, and the public. The auditor will be required to file a report to the council and the public by July 1 of every even-numbered year. The content of the report will summarize the results of his or her work in the previous 24 months, and detail what actions the county took in response to any findings in transit audits and assessments completed in the previous three years.

Snoqualmie Valley Hospital Dis-trict is providing in-person assis-tance again this year to help people compare health insurance plans and prices and choose the one that fits their needs and budget through the Washington Health Benefit Ex-change.

Last year, the hospital district helped more than 1,000 uninsured community members enroll in health coverage at the Health Bene-fit Exchange Office in downtown North Bend.

As part of national health care re-form, the Exchange created an online site called Healthplanfinder for individuals, families and small businesses to enroll in affordable health insurance plans. Individuals can also determine if they are eligi-ble for low-cost or free health care plans, along with subsidy estimates.

Teresa McClain, Certified Assister/Navigator for Washington Health Benefit Exchange and Clinic Ad-min for SVH, is trained to help community members navigate the website and enroll in coverage.

“I offer tailored support to mem-bers of our community such as set-ting up email accounts and helping them apply for insurance and DSHS benefits,” she said. “I also identify insurance plans in the Ex-change that their current healthcare providers accept.”

Although people can sign up them-selves through the website, the pro-

assists SVHD patients with financial aid paperwork and works with them to find a den-tist or vision provider that ac-cepts Washington Apple Health.

“It’s been such a rewarding experience getting to know so many members of our commu-nity and helping them obtain health coverage that some have never had access to,” McClain said. “The smiles on people’s faces when they realize they will be able to see a doctor or dentist for the first time in years is priceless.”

For more information about the Health Benefit Exchange, go to www.wahbexchange.org, www.wahealthfinder.org or www.hca.wa.gov/hcr/me.

The Health Benefit Exchange Office is located at 213 Bendi-go Blvd. N, Ste. 1, North Bend, across from Umpqua Bank.

cess can be complicated and people may want help understanding their options.

“Teresa is available to provide information and assistance so people can make their own decisions about healthcare cover-age,” Dr. Kimberly Witkop, Vice President of Medical Affairs with Snoqualmie Valley Hospi-tal District, said. “Our role is simp-ly to connect people with all the available options.”

Open enrollment started Nov. 15, 2014 and goes through Feb. 15, 2015 for coverage that starts on Jan. 1, 2015. The HBE office is open every Tuesday through Thurs-day from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

McClain not only provides assis-tance at the HBE office, but she has also worked with the indigent pop-ulation throughout the Valley, in-cluding at the Valley Renewal Shelter, Raging River Recovery, clients from DSHS East King County CSO and many other indi-viduals referred by mental health providers and community service organizations.

Other support McClain provides is to educate people about local ser-vices offered at the hospital district, such as primary care, specialty ser-vices and emergency services. She

A mighty 4th-grade feastPHOTOS BY SETH TRUSCOTT

To America! The group of fourth-grade buddies, Trevor Bradshaw, Raj Chaliparamail, Tanner Swanson, Kaelyn Giusti, Logan Shadel and Brady Maw clinked plastic glasses together at their construction-paper-covered dining table and toasted the nation—with apple juice. Each kid had a plate in front of them heaped with turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, olives, and popcorn. Swanson declared it “the best activity ever done in the school.”

Fourth graders mingled and dined in classic style in the 10th annual fourth grade Thanksgiving feast, organized and served at North Bend Elementary Wednesday, Nov. 26, by a group of 18 parents.

Children varied on preferences for turkey, stuffing or potatoes, but surprisingly, the cranberry sauce had few takers. Maybe it was the tartness. Young diners were well-behaved, though, choosing their entrees, not rushing, except when third grade teacher Anne Melgaard appeared at the feast—she was mobbed by former pupils in a group hug.

Fourth grade teacher Tom Fladland asked one group of boys, Owen Watters, Henry Chapman and Brady Maw, to bring a to-go plate and silverware to their first grade teacher, Kelsey Carr. Watters and Chapman balanced the plate down the hall and across the courtyard.

“They’re so thoughtful,” said Carr, who was touched by the boys’ special trip. “That’s very sweet.

2014 AP Scholars named from Mount Si High SchoolApproximately 112 Mount Si High School students have earned 2014 Advanced Placement (AP) Scholar awards for the AP exams they took last spring. Fifty Mount Si High School students were named AP Scholars, scoring a 3 (out of 5) or higher on three or more AP exams. They are Erin Antoch, Abigail Bottemiller, Jessica Brady, Gunnar Carlson, Krista Cassidy, Amber Caudle, Jason Chapman, Brandon Copitzky, Eliza Dolecki, Willy Eand, Sean Flanagan, Eric Golpe, Kyle Grate, Matthew Griffin, Natalie Gunn, Jessica Guyer, Jordan Hartman, Sean Hoeger, Delaney Hollis, John Hunt, Adam Husa, Alexander Johns, Emily Johns, Marisa Joplin, Emily Keene, William Kramer, Andrew Larson, Derek Lee, Naomi Litwack-Lang, Hallie Lynn, Paige McCall, Kelly McCracken, Natasha Ng, Andrew Oakley, Ivy Paradissis, Kerry Pemberton, Mackenzie Popp, Elizabeth Prewitt, Amy Proctor, Warren Sanctis, Victoria Shim, Paul Stedman, Tyler Stuber, Katherine Sullivan, Anthony Tassielli, Zoe Virta, Dane Whetsel, Zachary Williams, Samuel Yoshikawa and Judy Zhu.Another 30 students were named AP Scholar with Honors, for earning an average score of 3.25 or higher on all AP exams, plus scores of 3 or higher on four or more exams.

These students are Emma Bateman, Paul Bateman, Hedin Beattie, David Butler, Liam Crozier, Duncan Deutsch, Riley Dirks, Jason Edwards, John Eichler, William Gant, Boone Hapke, Ryan Hartman, Christian Henriksen, Natalie Korssjoen, Gregory Malcolm, Kevin McLaughlin, Kylie McLaughlin, Tristan Moore, Jack Nordby, Emma Panciroli, Lydia Petroske, Jonathan Proctor, Alexandra Raphael, Spencer Ricks, Tye Rodne, Mark Sorvik, Dean Sydnor, Ella Thompson, Zachary Tidwell, Rieley Vancampen, Elizabeth Young and Maile Young.Further, nine students were named National AP Scholars, for scoring an average of 4 on all AP exams, and scoring 4 or higher on eight or more exams. They are Liam Crozier, Duncan Deutsch, Riley Dirks, Boone Hapke, Christian Henriksen, Kevin McLaughlin, Tristan Moore, Alexandra Raphael and Maile Young. Crozier also received the 2014 AP International Diploma, for earn-ing 3 or higher on five or more AP Exams in three or more subject areas and applying to international colleges.Overall, nearly 75 percent of Mount Si students scored 3 or higher on last spring’s exams. “I couldn’t be more proud of our remarkable students. They are working hard and proving themselves among the top-perform-ing students in the nation, based on their 2014 exam scores. I am also thrilled to see more students each year embrace the rigor that AP courses offer,” said Mount Si High School Principal John Belcher. “Mount Si staff are also to be commended for their encouragement and support of students to help them rise to the challenge of pursuing academically rigorous subjects and pre-pare them for a successful college experience.”AP participation and performance from Mount Si students contin-ues to climb each year. In 2011, 29 students were recognized as AP Scholars, and 58 were recognized in 2012. Last year, 100 students received the honors. The College Board reported that in May of 2014 a total of 446 Mount Si High School students took a total of 737 AP exams, up from 361 students and 604 exams in 2013. Mount Si High School offers 20 AP courses, plus another four AP subjects through the Mount Si Online Program, that cover a broad range of academic disciplines. Courses include: art history, biology, calculus, chemistry, computer science, English language, English literature, environmental science, European history, French, government and politics, human geography, physics, Spanish, statistics, studio art, U.S. history, and world history. Online, students can take AP courses in calculus, macroeconom-ics, microeconomics and psychology. For the past four years running, the Snoqualmie Valley School District has earned a spot on the College Board’s AP Achievement List, recogniz-ing schools that increase AP opportunities for students while maintain-ing or improving AP exam scores. Snoqualmie Valley was the only school district in the state to earn the honor for years in a row last year.

HEARING ON THE REASSESSMENT OF

CERTAIN PROPERTIES THEREIN

NOTICE IS GIVEN that the City of North Bend, Washington (the “City”), pursuant to Resolu- tion No. 1212 adopted August 21, 2007, as amended, declared its intention to form a Utility Local Improvement District (ULID), in response to receipt of sufficient petitions from property owners within the ULID boundaries, to design and construct a sewer system within certain specified portions of the City of North Bend(the “Improvement”).

The owners of certain property within ULID No. 6 (the “Appellant Owners”) subsequently appealed to the King County Superior Court. Pursuant to that appeal, the Court of Appeals annulled “the assessments only of the appeal- ing property owners, allowing the City to pursue a reassessment.” A public hearing regarding the adoption of a reassessment ordinance (and repealing an earlier reassessment ordinance), and the proposed reassessments to certain property owned by the Appellant Owners only, will be held before the North Bend City Council at a Regular City Coun- cil Meeting on Tuesday, January 6, 2015, at 7:00 PM, at the Mt. Si Senior Center, 411 Main Ave. S., North Bend, WA. The reassessment ordinance is included in this Notice.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.

“This theater has been a home theater for me,” says Schuchter, a North Bend actor who has appeared in Valley Center Stage’s pre-vious “Christmas Carol,” in “The Foreigner,” and at

Snoqualmie’s tiny Black Dog stage.

At Valley Center Stage, it’s all about “What can you do on the head of a pin?” said Schuchter. “It’s amazing what happens.”

Schuchter has been study-ing the Holmes tales, trying to understand his charac-

ter’s place in the genre.“Who is Watson, actu-

ally? It’s a combination. He’s a straight man, a foil, but he’s also a balance, emotion-ally, to Holmes. Watson is a grounding presence.”

Some of the actors and actresses appearing in “Sherlock” have been doing

community theatre for years. Some are just new-comers. Others are kids.

Rachel Friedman, 10, has appeared in “Wind in the

Willows,” “Paul Sill’s Story Theater,” and as ZuZu in last Christmas’s “It’s a Wonderful Life.”

She likes acting. Her lat-

est challenge is to appear as a boy character named Eli.

“It’s a bit difficult. I have to walk a little weird and act different. My posture is dif-ferent. If I move my hands in a weird way, it gives away that I’m a girl. I have to put my hair up,” and make sure it doesn’t get out from under Friedman’s flat cap.

“This is an amazing fam-ily,” says actor Ed Benson, who plays Inspector Lestrade. “People who come in become family. We’re very lucky in getting some new folks, who come all the way from Seattle.”

Benson, by day a social worker, calls community theater his true vocation. A mainstay at Valley Center Stage, he was in the origi-nal Christmas Carol pro-duction, which ran here for eight years.

One of those Seattle new-comers is Michael Renny, who plays the Second Spirit, embodied in a foppish, Oscar Wilde-esque charac-ter. “I’m all over the place, I have a cape, wig and hat,” says Renny. He’s been trav-eling all over the country doing theater. Shadowing Center Stage executive director Gary Schwartz, he was asked to audition to boost the male cast.

Seattle actress Mary Sheehan plays Holmes’ long-suffering housekeeper, Mrs. Hudson. She com-mutes to North Bend three or four times a week for rehearsals, and calls it “great fun.”

A Conan Doyle fan, Sheehan loves the stories, which date from 1887 to 1914.

“I’ve read a lot of those stories,” she said. “I love the Jeremy Brett series from the 1990s. Those episodes could be lifted verbatim” from Doyle’s written tales.
