Hospital to take its own pathDistrict 4, Overlake back
out of affiliation talksBY SETH TRUSCOTT
Editor
King County Hospital District 4 and Overlake Hospital have backed off from a deal to sell Snoqualmie Valley Hospital and its clinics to the Bellevue company.
Negotiations were made public this summer and dis-cussed in private sessions this fall, as well as at a public hear-ing on Oct. 2. The deadline for a decision on affiliation had been pushed to March, but last Thursday, the district announced that the hospital will stay indepen-dent.
C o m m -issioner Joan Young read a statement about the decision at the district’s Thursday, Nov. 6, board meet-ing.
After months of evalua-tion and discussion, “leaders of both organizations mutually decided to remain indepen-dent but closely aligned, and to continue collaborative efforts to serve the health care needs of the Snoqualmie Valley and surrounding communities,” the statement read.
Now, the district will focus on opening its new hospital, on its own, next March.
CEO Rodger McCollum told the Record that the pullback was a mutual decision.

North Bend moves on scaled-back plaza project,
plans to minimize disruptionBY CAROL LADWIG
Staff Reporter
Voting to use a December-expiring $350,000 federal grant rather than to lose it, North Bend’s City Council authorized a design contract on the proposed down-town plaza project on North Bend Way, Tuesday, Nov. 4.
The decision, supporting a downsized version of the pro-posed project, was neither easy for the council, nor unanimous. Councilman Ryan Kolodejchuk cited his concerns about the cost to the city and traffic conges-tion, and voted against the con-tract after a discussion of their options. These included giving up the 2011 grant (which had to be committed to a project by the end of December) in hopes of gaining a larger award in the future, spending it on a reduced version of the original proposal, or keeping both the grant and the original proposal, but doing the full project in phases.
“You can’t really shut down (the) street for two summers,” Kolodejchuk said.
Mayor Ken Hearing agreed. “I would prefer not to—no, I’d be dead set against doing this twice,” Hearing told the council before their vote. Two street clo-sures during peak tourism times would be hard on both the busi-nesses and the city’s sales tax revenue, he added.
Most council members spoke in favor of the reduced-scope proj-ect, centered on the North Bend Way and Main Street intersection, with new, wider sidewalks, and other pedestrian improvements.

Snoqualmie Police and an allied SWAT team captured the suspect in two armed robberies in North Bend, following a seven-hour siege of a
downtown Snoqualmie apartment.The latest robbery occurred about
10 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 6. Police said a masked man entered the Carter’s store in the North Bend Premium Outlets mall, and threatened the store clerk, who was alone.

Some of the possibilities for North Bend’s downtown plaza project are illustrated in this preliminary rendering from Cascade Design Collaborative of Seattle. The design is still likely to change.
Councilman Jonathan Rosen suggested several changes to pare the reduced project costs further, and recommended using city funds reserved for property acquisition to fully fund the work, “so we get it done, get it done once, so it looks good.”
From the audience, Martin Volken, an Economic Development Commission member, urged the coun-cil to proceed with some form of the downtown proj-ect. Although he had been hoping for the larger, two-phased approach, he knew that other business own-ers on the street were con-cerned about the potential disruption.
“But I think we’ve been disrupting business in down-town for the last 20 years by not doing anything,” Volken said. Vacant storefronts lead to lost business, he noted, and in his talks with other business owners, he found that “Nobody wants to wait another four years, to then hopefully have the budget, to then hopefully do a proj-ect.”
Trevor Kostanich, also on the Economic
Development Commission, agreed with Volken. He talked about the group’s past efforts to revitalize downtown, and about the message that the council would send to city business owners with its action.
“It’s really important to me that we make the right statement,” he said, urging the council to proceed with the scaled-back project and spend the money the city has already been given.
Public Works Director Mark Rigos told the coun-cil he’d re-scoped the plaza
project from an earlier esti-mate of a three-block span and $1.8 million in pro-posed improvements to the single-intersection effort. The project will cost the city a minimum of $350,000, which is the required match for the federal grant, and would likely worsen traffic congestion on North Bend Way.
The level of service at North Bend Way’s inter-sections with Bendigo Boulevard and Main Street would both likely drop to “F” during the peak hour of
4 to 6 p.m. by the comple-tion of the project. An F rating represents an average wait of more than 80 sec-onds at an intersection with a traffic signal, and more than 50 seconds at two-way stops. Currently, the Bendigo intersection (with signal) is rated D, with an average delay of 35 to 55 seconds during peak hours, and Main (two-way stop) is rated E, with an average delay of 35 to 50 seconds. While North Bend Way will retain a lane of travel in each direction plus a center turn
lane, Rigos said Main Street would be reduced to the two driving lanes, and no center turning lane.
Congestion relief is not the point of the project.
“It was never our inten-tion to have a high level of service downtown,” said Councilman Alan Gothelf.
Rigos, in a later conversa-tion, concurred. “The goal... is not to improve traffic con-gestion. It’s to create a more livable, pedestrian friendly downtown.”
With the approval of the design contract, Rigos esti-
mated that the project could be “shovel-ready” by the end of the year. He hoped the work could be completed in 60 days, basically April and May of next year, and with minimal effect on down-town businesses.
“For the most part, down-town will be open,” he said.
The design con-tracts awarded included $113,953 for the civil engi-neering firm Tetra Tech, and $40,000 for Cascade Design Collaborative, for assistance with streetscape design elements.

In Brief
Witnesses said the suspect, described as a having Asian or Native-American features, in his mid-20s, wearing a dark sweatshirt, brandished a handheld stun weapon.
In the security video, police saw a masked man enter the Carter’s store in the mall, then leave the store a short time later and drive off in a dark four-door sedan.
The suspect “presented a Taser and wanted all the money in the till, which he did get,” Police Captain Nick Almquist said. The store clerk was unharmed in the incident.
The description was similar to a robbery that happened earlier in the week at the Claire’s store, also at the mall. The man stole about $150 from Claire’s and $350 from Carter’s. Officers also had a description of the man’s dark-colored Mazda sedan.
Snoqualmie police had newly joined Twitter, so Almquist posted the descriptions online Thursday. By 10 p.m., he had his first tip. A second followed around 3 a.m. Friday, leading officers to the alley between River and Newton Streets in downtown Snoqualmie, where the suspect had parked his car in a rear-facing apartment.
Until the standoff ended, police didn’t know if the suspect was armed.
“We always err on the side of officer safety,” Almquist said. Besides the report of the handheld stun gun, a wit-ness had reported that the suspect had carried a gun in the Claire’s robbery.
As police arrived, they saw the suspect, moving around and looking in his truck. When he spotted police, he ran into the house.
“We spotlighted the house, and made sure he wasn’t com-ing out,” Almquist said.
Police had the house surrounded from about 3 a.m. until about 10 a.m., when they broke their way inside.
“You always try to negotiate to get them out peacefully,” Almquist said. “If they don’t, you have to go in, tactically.”
Officers managed to get the suspect’s number, and called him on a department-issued phone. He texted back, “trying to figure out who we were,” Almquist said. That exchange didn’t last long. Almquist said police learned through a family member of the suspect that he probably ran out of prepaid minutes on his phone.
Officers hailed the suspect multiple times, with no response. Police used a loudspeaker on a car to announce that they had a search warrant for the building, but not an arrest warrant for the suspect, and that they weren’t leaving.
That negotiation didn’t go anywhere. The suspect was silent inside his apartment. So, officers used a ram to break in the door.
“In the process of smashing the door, they presented themselves,” Almquist said. “They complied right away.”
After he surrendered, the suspect was placed in a police car. Officers began to search the apartment. An interview with both the man and his girlfriend followed at the police station.
The girlfriend is also in her mid-20s.Almquist praised the response from neighboring Redmond and the
Coalition of Small Police Agencies, who shared SWAT team members and special equipment.
“This is how it’s supposed to work,” he said.
SWAT FROM 1
Snoqualmie police and SWAT specialists from neighboring Redmond converged on a back alley in downtown Snoqualmie early Friday, Nov. 7. Police contacted a man, suspect-ed of robbing stores in the North Bend Outlet Mall. When the man ran inside, they tried to negotiate, then broke down the door.

Carnation cops vote
should have been like
North Bend’sLast Tuesday’s election results show that
Snoqualmie Police have earned the trust of North Bend residents in the nine months
since they assumed patrol duties from King County.The tax measure that North Bend voters approved,
a tenth of a percent increase for sales tax, pays for police and fire protection. Part of the money goes to Eastside Fire and Rescue to make good a fire contract increase. The remainder will pay for an eighth officer, beefing up the force. Now, North Bend will have two cops on duty 18 hours a day and at least one officer around 24 hours a day. There’s no sunset date for the measure, so it’s permanent.
North Bend, of course, is a different animal from Carnation, five times larger than that Lower Valley city that narrowly missed passage on election day of its own measure allowing for extra police protection. The city had floated a property tax lid lift on the November ballot, increasing the tax rate by about 35 cents per $1,000 in assessed value. That’s about an extra $140 a year on a $400,000 house. What residents would have gotten for their extra taxes was 18 percent more police coverage. Given the fact that the city only gets about 40 hours of police coverage a week, that would have meant less time when the city’s residents are waiting for outside help in an emergency or crime.
Like North Bend, Carnation needed this. Residents who live inside city limits deserve to feel safe. It’s not that the Valley is growing less safe—any look back through the archives will show you that crime and violence have always happened here—but the Valley is growing, and with more people come more risk. Since Snoqualmie PD took over, North Bend saw a high-profile rape case, criminal transient activity in the city’s clandestine camps, a negligent homicide shooting, a stabbing, and the explosion of an entire downtown block. The seven men on the North Bend force have been busy. While there may not be a corre-lation between the number of police and the number of cases, I can’t help but wonder what extra police time would have meant for Carnation, in terms of prevented crimes, saved property and changed lives.
Better luck next time.

What does North Bend Way need more, car- or foot-traffic fixes?
Thursday, Nov. 9, 1989• A citizen group, the Snoqualmie Valley Coalition, plans to file an initiative designed to reduce the size of Weyerhaeuser’s pro-posed “Snoqualmie Ridge” project. They say King County gave developers special treatment in the project, three times the size of expansion areas for North Bend, Carnation and Duvall.
Thursday, Nov. 12, 1964• Snoqualmie needs a full-time court, Judge Richard Holt of Sno-Valley District Court told the North Bend Chamber of Commerce in a meeting at Mar-T Cafe. Last year, the court saw nearly 3,400 cases, 559 of which went to trial. That’s comparable to most full-time courts in King County.• In line with regional cities, Snoqualmie banned punchboards and pulltabs as of Dec. 1. Police will have to notify businesses.• Burglars who broke into the Riverside Tavern in Fall City badly cut themselves on glass in the doors and windows.

Remember those who serveOn Veterans Day, it is important to reach out and honor our veterans. According to a recent United States Census
estimate, U.S. military veterans make up nearly 7 percent of our country’s population. The U.S. Department of Defense reports state that since Sept. 11, 2001, more than 2.6 million veterans have served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Of these combat veterans, it is estimated over 1 million returned home with at least one service-related disability or injury.
In the early years of the Iraq War, during a period when I served 25 months in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, nearly two thousand fellow U.S. and coalition forces lost their lives in Iraq. During the entirety of combat operations—spanning between 2003 and 2011—a total of 4,478 U.S. service members died in the Iraq theatre of operations (as reported by DOD). Nine of these service members were soldiers in my unit:
CPL Carrie French, 19SGT John Ogburn III, 45SSG Kevin Davis, 41SFC Mark Warren, 44SGT Paul Thomason, 37SFC Robbie McNary, 42SFC Ronald Wood, 28SGT Travis Arndt, 23SSG Virgil Case, 37 Additionally, an unusually high percentage of veterans have died since returning home,
many as a result of stateside drug overdoses, suicides, and vehicle crashes. On Veterans Day, it is important to reflect on the price and sacrifice of war and to honor our veterans.

North Bend potholes need attentionI am writing this letter after repeated attempts by myself and my neighbors over the past several years to have repairs
done to our road (Northwest 14th Street). We have all contacted City Hall, to no avail. This includes e-mails, phone calls, face to face, and posting messages on the door of City Hall.
We have potholes 7 to 8 feet across and over a foot deep in some places. Not just a few of these monsters—about 20 to 30 of them. Everyone down the road takes turns doing what they can do to try to make the road passable but it is not nearly enough. I have had $500 of work done to my car alone from attempting to navigate this road.
After seeing the mayor and council touting how wonderful North Bend’s roads are in the public broadcast of council meetings, plus the implementation of added sales tax in North Bend specifically for roads, it is time to make them stand behind their claims.

Letters to the editorConstruction begins at Miner’s RidgeA new 24-lot subdivision in North Bend named Miner’s Ridge begins construction in mid-October. The city of North Bend has issued a clearing and grading permit for the project located north of the 461st Place S.E. / S.E. 137th Street intersection on the east side of North Bend. The private development by John Day Homes includes construction of two public roads, water, sewer and storm drainage utilities, landscaping and a small private park. At the earliest, homes will be built in 2015.
County Council supports living wage At the beginning of 2014, the Metropolitan King County Council started exploring steps toward developing living wage guidelines within the county. In October, the council gave its approval to legislation establishing the county’s first living wage policy, covering county employees as well as businesses, non-profits, and other entities that do business with the County. King County Executive Dow Constantine said he continues to be committed to providing those working for the county a living wage. Since July of this year, all county staff—with very limited excep-tions, such as some internships—are receiving a wage of at least $15 an hour. “Overcoming the growing inequality in our region requires a com-prehensive approach including access to health care, education, job training, transportation, and more,” said Constantine. “Ensuring that those doing business with the county provide their employees a liv-ing wage is a critical part of that approach.” The ordinance goes a step further by requiring that not only all county employees, but the employees of contractors who provide services through contracts of $100,000 or more to the county to be paid a living wage. It also sets compensation levels and phase-in periods for large and small employers and takes into account whether the employer offers health benefits, similar to the new city of Seattle minimum wage law.

“It really came down to each of our respec-tive hospitals’ assessment of the future of critical access hospital licensure,” he stated in an e-mailed response to questions from the Record.
Both organizations had looked at the future of the federal Critical Access pro-gram. Snoqualmie Valley Hospital is a Critical Access hospital, meaning that it gets reimbursed by Medicaid for certain costs. Some in the health care industry wonder whether the federal program will continue in years to come.
“Overlake Hospital and their consultants took, not inappropriately, the opinion that they had to plan for changes in the regula-tions around Critical Access hospitals on a shorter timeline than we have,” McCollum stated. “This is essentially trying to predict the future in a highly fluid health care envi-ronment. The less predictable and more fluid it is, the higher the risk in taking on a new hospital for Overlake. Thus, they upped the ask for a subsidy to offset the risk to the point that we decided it would be too much to ask of our community.”
“We are comfortable in the critical access world, it is totally foreign and new for them,” McCollum added. “So the mutual decision was that it was best for both hospitals to operate independently but at the same time they have firmly committed to assisting us to be as successful as possible.” This could mean more working together, between the two hospitals.
That district and Overlake also appear to have had differences in the length of the proposed lease. According to Commissioner Dariel Norris, the district and its developer wanted a longer, 10-year lease on the new hospital by Overlake, but the Bellevue organi-zation preferred a shorter commitment.
“I am a little disappointed,” said Norris. “To me, Overlake was the hospital in the neighborhood. It’s a familiar name for the community.”
“We are talking about hiring someone to scout for a possible good-fit partnership,” she told the Record. “That’s common right now for the small critical care hospitals such as ours. At the same time, we have an attitude of ‘We can do this.’”
While the district may still seek new affili-ation, McCollum expressed confidence in the hospital’s ability to continue alone.
“We are very comfortable, in fact very highly energized to operate independently,” he stated, answering written questions from the Record. “After all, this was the original plan, and it is based on very solid projections. Having said that, the future of hospitals in a rapidly changing environment require that all of us continue to assess future options.”
McCollum said the fall-through won’t affect the district’s services.
“We will be opening the new hospital in the spring, on time and with the same services, but with the ability to expand our volumes,” the administrator stated. “This will be the most beautiful building in the Valley and will be very welcoming for the public. It will also give us the facility we need to consider expanding services in the future, such as a more robust specialty care offering.”
District 4 is in the late stages of construc-tion of a new Snoqualmie Valley Hospital on Snoqualmie Ridge. The Snoqualmie Tribe purchased the existing Meadowbrook cam-pus, and moved its administration center there this fall.
The district has about $40 million in back debt and will be assuming an additional $38 million to build the new hospital, slated for completion in March.

By Valley Record Staff
Results from the Tuesday, Nov. 4, gen-eral election showed North Bend residents in favor of extra police and local parks, while in Carnation, a package for more police protection was failing by a narrow margin.
A sales tax increase in North Bend was voted in, by an overwhelming majority of 1,188 yes votes, 64 percent, to 670 no votes, 36 percent. The 0.1 percent addition raises the city’s sales tax to 8.9 percent and is projected to raise city revenues by about $200,000.
All of the Prop. 1 revenues are desig-nated for public safety costs in the city, specifically, for the addition of an eighth police officer to cover North Bend, and the remainder for the city’s contract for fire protection services with Eastside Fire & Rescue.
“The (city) council was very clear in its direction. This was not to supplant money that was already being spent on public safety,” said North Bend Mayor Ken Hearing, who on Wednesday morn-ing was very happy with the results, both of the vote, and of the city’s switch to Snoqualmie for police services in March.
“I think that the general public has seen a marked increase in the level of service. And … if a little is good, maybe more is better,” Hearing said.
Snoqualmie Police Chief Steve McCulley expressed his thanks to the city staff and city council for “making public
safety in North Bend,” and “most impor-tantly I would like to say thank you to the North Bend residents. The support of Proposition 1, which will add a dedicated eighth police officer, is truly the best affir-mation of support and confidence in our officers and our police department.”
A volunteer citizen committee, com-prised of Ed Holmes, Jon Wiseman and Sherwood Korssjoen was credited with the campaign in support of Proposition 1.
Although McCulley said his depart-ment is ready to hire an officer for North Bend by the end of the month, it’s unlikely that North Bend will see revenue from the new sales tax before June. Once the elec-tion results are certified, Nov. 25, the city must provide a 75-day notice of the new tax to the state Department of Revenue. New taxes can begin only at the start of a fiscal quarter, and there is typically a two-month lag between tax assessment and the distribution of its revenue, according to North Bend Finance Director Dawn Masko.
A levy for increased police coverage in Carnation was failing by 30 votes as of press time. The 36-cent tax would have given the city another $70,000 in police services, to be used exclusively for expanding police services in the small community. Carnation currently contracts with the King County Sheriff ’s Office for police services.

CKMS students pledge to stop bullying,
mix it up at lunchStudents at Chief Kanim
Middle School joined more than one million students across the country to help break down social barriers, by participating in the 13th annual Mix It Up at Lunch Day, Thursday, Oct. 30.
The national event, launched by the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Teaching Tolerance project in 2002, encourages students to sit with someone new in the cafeteria for one day at lunch.
As part of National Bullying Prevention month, Chief Kanim staff taught anti-bullying lessons in October and students took a school-wide pledge against bullying. They wrote their pledges on paper handprints to promote the slogan “Take a stand, lend a hand, stop bullying.”
Approximately 700 hands hang on the school walls, a reminder that CKMS stu-dents and staff do not tolerate bullying.
After making their per-
sonal pledges, students then mixed it up at lunch as a way to get to know new people. They sat at tables marked with their birthday month and talked with other stu-dents they did not normally eat with.

Mix It Up helps schools “create learning environments where students see each other as individuals and not just as members of a separate group,”
said Teaching Tolerance Director Maureen Costello. “When people step out of their cliques and get to know
someone, they realize just how much they have in common.”

Kiwanis members Joe Larson and Carlos De Imus take questions from a classroom when they visited Cascade View Elementary School to hand out new dictionaries to every third grader.
Kiwanis gives ‘Words for Thirds’“Awesome,” “surprised,” “exciting,” and “wonderful,” are some of the words used by third graders at Cascade View Elementary to describe a special visit and gifts they received from Snoqualmie Valley Kiwanis Oct. 27.Kiwanis representatives Carlos De Imus and Joe Larson visited the class to bring them gifts of new dictionaries, one for every third grader in the school and their teachers. Kiwanis donated dictionar-ies at all five elementary schools, as well as to the district’s Parent Partnership Program, for a total of 586 new dictionaries. “This is so cool,” said one third grader, as students were instructed to put their names in their books. During the presentations, students were challenged to look up new facts and to share their favorite words. Mississippi was the favorite in three out of the four classes at Cascade View.Teachers in third and fourth grades design lessons around the stu-dents using the dictionaries to hone their research skills.The donation of dictionaries to all third graders in the district is a long-standing Kiwanis tradition that school children have cher-ished through the years.“I remember when my kids got their dictionaries in third grade. They are in their 20s now, and they still have them!” said Cascade View Principal Ray Wilson, who helped pass out the dictionaries.

It was a big, emotional night to close out the football season for Mount Si last Friday, Nov. 7.
The Wildcats dominated Lynnwood, piling up seven touchdowns, imposing the mercy clock and giving the second string some experience. The Wildcats won, 47-13, with touchdowns by Cory Cotto, JoJo Hillel, Sean Hyland, Parker Dumas, and three by Colton Swain. Kicker Jake Ethington contributed five extra points.
Hillel, finishing his high school quarterback career, said the team started the game in top form and ended strong.
“The O-line did great protection. We had
time to throw the ball, and our receivers made plays tonight, it was awesome,” he said.
“It was perfect throwing weather,” Hillel said. And, with Mount Si defense blocking tough, Hillel had “all the time in the world” to find receivers.
“There were a lot of holes in the zone, and we were just hitting them,” said receiver Swain.
Mount Si turned multiple Lynnwood fumbles into scoring opportunities in the first half.
“We were just ripping hard. We’ve been work-ing all year on ripping, and it finally came together,” Hillel said.
Much of Mount Si’s varsity starters had the second half of the night off, as second-stringers
came in under the running clock, which activates if a team is up by 40 points before the half begins. Harrison Danna took over QB duties in the sec-ond half. It was one of a few chances for the underclassman to get some Friday night experience.
“It was really fun coming out and putting a whole game together,” com-mented lineman LaFonte Beverly.
Senior lineman Chris Schlicting had shout-outs for his entire line, sin-gling out “Ryan McVay, a junior, push-ing them around. LaFonte, our center, has come a long way. Cameron Davis our right guard, Ryan Findley, push-ing people around out there. As a line, it was our best game of the season. When you give JoJo time to throw the ball, things are going to happen.”
On the second string, “they have tal-ent for next year, that’s for sure, a lot of skilled players returning. They’re defi-nitely going to be set and ready to go.”
“It really hasn’t hit me yet,” added Schlicting. “It’s probably going to hit me later tonight. Best fans, best stadium. It’s hard to beat what we’ve got here. It was nice ending the way we did.”

CHS boys do well at state, are
smart, tooLast Saturday, Nov. 8, Cedarcrest
High School’s boys squad competed at the 2A State Championships, held at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco.
“At the start of the season, we were not expecting to qualify a squad
for state,” commented coach Bruce McDowell.
Last spring, Cedarcrest had gradu-ated six of its starting nine runners.
It was supposed to be a rebuilding year. Only, “They rebuilt them-
selves into another state squad,” McDowell said.
Ian Fay ran 16:43 for 43rd place; His time is a Cedacrest boys’ sixth
fastest time on the state course. Cameron Hammontree ran 17:01
for 54th place, eighth in the record books for the state course. Vincent
Dams was 93rd for 17:30; Gunnar Schultz was 103rd for 17:46; Chase
Bolin was 107th for 17:51; Isaac Harper was 109th for 17:54, and
Simon Fraser was 114th for 17:59. Other members of the state squad who did not race were John Shaw
and Ben Benson. The boys finished a respectable 12th place, and all
nine are returning next year. Before the race, the Red Wolves
boys were recognized for being the 2A boys cross country Academic
State Champions. Included in this recognition were the nine
listed above as well as Grant Van Valkenburg. These 10 boys had a
combined spring GPA of 3.851.The Cedarcrest girls did not
advance past the Northwest District Championship meet, held
November 1 at South Whidbey High School. For the girls race, it was the top 3 teams and the top
15 individuals qualifying for state. Madi Shinn was Cedarcrest’s first
finisher in 27th place. The pack included Alicia Krivanel at 33rd
with 21:33.86, Ruby Farias at 38 with 21:59.54, Kiana Ward at 39th
with 22:02.31, followed by Kate Vergillo, MaryCate Babcock and
Paige Lucas.
Mount Si tennis season winds up at league tourney
BY SETH TRUSCOTTEditor
Mount Si boys tennis players gained expe-rience and a handful of doubles and singles victories this season, their first in Kingco 4A.
The Wildcats had a tough season among the bigger schools, failing to chalk a single team win, but individual players and doubles squads found success during the fall.
The team had two doubles players and four singles players advance to the league tourna-ment, October 29 at Skyline.
In the first round, Mount Si singles players Danny Tomson and George Corriveau fell in matches with opponents from Eastlake and Inglemoor, 6-2, 6-1 and 6-0, 6-0, respectively.
In doubles, the pairing of Matthew Griffin and John Day put up a good fight, 6-3, 7-5, falling to Eastlake’s Jerry Shen and Rowland Townsend. Jacob Holmes and Ryan Cantalini, both sophomores, fell to Issaquah’s Sam Reardon and Cyrus Chang, 6-1, 6-1.
For a while, Griffin was controlling the match. “They had the momentum,” coach Jim Gibowski said. But it was tough to hang with the second-best team in 4A KingCo.
The good thing is that five of the six league players are underclassmen. Griffin is the only senior, a four-year varsity letterer for Mount Si.
Mount Si boys tennis had the most match-es in its history this fall, playing 13 of 14 scheduled. Several were fairly close, against Sammamish, Liberty and Juanita, “our old rivals,” Gibowski said.

Much of the team should return, includ-ing Holmes, a sophomore, who played mostly singles this season.
“He was really seeing the court, he was adaptable, playing the net better,” said Gibowski.
Day, a junior, and Cantalini got physi-cally bigger in the season.
“John, he is getting bigger and stronger, he’s my number-two guy,” Gibowski said.
“My doubles played really well together, especially my two and three doubles.” The
third-doubles pair, Vince DiDomenico and Danny Tomson, won close to half their matches.
“That shows we have some depth in the bottom, but it’s hard to compete. 4A is definitely a harder conference. There is no break in the schedule.”
Tomson is a basketball player and a scrapper. Next year, look for him and George Corriveau to be paired for one or two spot.
This year, the number-one doubles spot was held down by Royce Schwartzenberger and Brady Thomas. Like the Mount Si singles group of Griffin, Day, Holmes and
Cantalini, finding wins against experienced KingCo 4A teams was a challenge.
“One doubles is tough,” the coach said. In a fluid lineup, Gibowski had singles
players playing doubles at Kingco. Griffin, Day, Cantalini and Holmes each played doubles several times over the season.
“It’s good for high school players to play both,” Gibowski said. “That said, it’s a big advantage if you play more and more together—it makes a big difference for com-munication.” Griffin and Day improved in their short time together. If they had had more time together, who knows?
Doubles winsThroughout the season, Mount Si saw the
most success in its lower doubles duos.On Sept. 18 against Sammamish, number-
four singles player Jacob Holmes beat his opponent, Ryan Ching, 7-6 (8-6), 2-6, 6-0.
At number-two doubles, Sherwin Nelson and George Corriveau beat Rey Ching and Aaron Furstman, 6-1, 3-6, 6-3. At number three doubles, DiDomenico and Tomson beat Hoe Inowl and Stephan Robert, 3-6, 6-3, 10-5. Mount Si nearly won that meet, 3-4, one of their closest chances of the sea-son.
Against Sammamish on October 2, the number two doubles team of Griffin and Day beat their opponents, 6-1, 6-2, while the number-three squad of Holmes and Corriveau won, 6-1, 6-2.
On Oct. 14, the number-two squad of Jonah Kingery and George Corriveau beat Woodinville’s Jonathan McCuistion, 7-6 (7-5), 6-2. The number-three doubles team of DiDomenico and Tomson beat Paul Sutton and Jonathan Mitchell, 6-2, 6-0.
Mount Si was winless in recent matches against Bothell, Newport, Redmond and Inglemoor.
TENNIS FROM 12
Cory Cotto’s quick scamper made for his fifth touchdown of the season. The win “felt really good. It’s a good thing to build on,” said Cory Cotto, a sophomore. “Next season is going to be a good one for us.”
“We knew we could get open against these guys,” said senior wide receiver Sean Hyland. “We created and did a good job.”
Legacy of 2014Like Schlicting, the finality hadn’t hit
Hyland yet, after the buzzer. “I’m gonna remember how these guys
fought till the end,” Hyland said. “This was a crazy year for injuries, but everyone fought through it and never gave up, and we got to go out as winners. That’s pretty special.”
“I’ve got four more years, so I feel lucky that it’s not over for me,” said Schlicting, who has commited to play for the University of Montana at Missoula.
“It was awesome being able to have one more game here,” he said. “This is the last time I’ll ever be able to play on this field. I don’t think you can ever expect
to have a blowout like this,” Schlicting said. “This is Kingco 4A football, this is the best league in the state.
“The senior class really stepped it up and showed us how to be good leaders,” said Swain, a junior. “We’re going to take that leadership into next year.”
About this season, Beverly said he’ll remember “just coming together in 4A and showing we belong here.”
“We came out and showed them who we were,” Hillel said. “We’ve all played together since we were 8. It’s memorable.”
“It’s not just about football,” said senior Richard Willard. “It’s about preparing us for life and what’s ahead. I’ve learned a lot from Coach Kinnune.”

The votes for Proposition 1 totaled 277 against the levy lid lift, 53 percent, and 247 votes, 47 percent for it.
Voters also strongly supported the main-tenance and operations levy from Si View Metropolitan Parks District. The $450,000 levy got 3,650 yes votes, or 73 percent, to 1,335 no votes, 27 percent. The outcome was great news to Si View staff.
“It just feels like we’re doing something good, and it feels good to be supported by the commu-nity,” said Si View Director Travis Stombaugh. “We’re doing something that they value.”
Si View has been asking voters annually for the one-year M&O levy since 2011, when prop-erty values plummeted and tax rates soared. Taxes in King County were capped at $5.90 per thousand, and as a junior taxing district, Si View was nearly last in line for its share of those taxes. Since values were low, many of the entities ahead of Si View in the distribution increased
their property tax rates to preserve their rev-enue. Anticipating major funding cuts, and subsequent service and staff reductions, Si View floated two propositions in 2011, one to protect a 25-cent portion of their levy, regardless of the $5.90 cap, and the M&O Levy that has been on the general election ballot ever since.
Now that property values are on the rise again, Stombaugh is hopeful that Proposition 1 won’t re-appear next November.
“This will be the last year for a while, we think,” he said. “Since the assessed values are starting to come back up, there’s starting to be room under that $5.90 cap.”
There’s probably not enough room under that cap to fit all of Si View’s tax revenue — about half of its $2 million budget — but the district can rely on the protected 25-cent por-tion of the levy through 2017.
The Si View Metropolitan Parks District was created in 2003, re-opening the county-owned community center and pool after King County announced plans to close the facilities. Voters approved the creation of the district, and its
taxing authority, in a Feb. 4 special election.
King County Elections offi-cials announced plans to post
daily results updates by 4:30 p.m. So far, the elec-tions office has received 637,000 ballots, more than 100,000 of them in the past week, and has processed 624,000 for counting. It takes about a day to verify each ballot for counting.
There are 1,181,076 registered voters in King County.
Candidates and state measuresIn the Valley’s state legislature races, incum-
bent Jay Rodne of North Bend beat challenger Essie Hicks of Issaquah, 58 percent to 42 per-cent to retain his position 1 state representative seat.
Issaquah’s Chad Magendanz, at position 2, kept his seat, winning 59 percent to 41 percent over North Bend challenger David Spring.
U.S. Congressional incumbent Dave Reichert was ahead of opponent Jason Ritchie, 63 percent to 37 percent.
Statewide, the initial vote counts show sup-port for increased gun control. Initiative 594, calling for increased background checks and other changes to state law regarding the trans-fer of guns between people, is passing with nearly 60 percent voter approval. As of press time Tuesday, 1,171,879 votes were counted in support of 594, to only 810,346 against.
Another gun measure, 591, appears to be failing. Initiative 591, which would require the state to adhere to the federal standard for background checks, at federally licensed retail-ers only, was running at nearly 55 percent, or 1,081,115 no votes to 45 percent, 882,634 yes.
Both of these measures are Initiatives to the Legislature, which means the state legislature must act on the certified results in its next ses-sion. If legislators approve the measure as-is, it becomes state law. If they take any other action, rejection, revision, or refusing to vote on the issue, it will go back to voters on the next general election, along with any proposed
revisions from the legislature.A third initiative, related to education fund-
ing and class sizes, was failing in early returns, but is now passing by more than 20,000 votes. The measure would impose a maximum class size of 17 students in grades 3 and lower, and a maximum of 25 students in grades 4 to 12, and require full funding at these levels by 2017. As of press time, the yes votes were slightly ahead 989,754, or 51 percent, to 962,794, or 49 percent no votes.
Initiative 1351 is an Initiative to the People, and would become state law if both the peti-tion signatures are certified, as well as the voting results.
In other state measures, Advisory Vote No. 8, which implements a marijuana excise tax, was passing with 54 percent of the vote, and a margin of about 150,000 votes, according to the Secretary of State’s website. The “yes” vote repeals the legislature’s elimination of agricul-tural tax preferences for marijuana.
Advisory vote 9, which concerns excise tax on tribe-owned, privately leased land, is pass-ing by 55 percent, 971,255 votes to 790,683 votes to repeal. The measure sought voter affirmation to continue to direct land-use tax on the use of tribal property by private parties in lieu of property taxes.
According to the Snoqualmie Tribe’s web-site, the local tribe does not lease any of its properties out currently, so the excise tax doesn’t affect the tribe.
However, the tribe endorsed HB 1287, saying it allows tribes to be treated the same as state and local governments regarding land tax rules, and strengthens tribal sovereignty.
King County is expecting to certify the results by Nov. 25.
The Secretary of State will certify final gen-eral election results by Dec. 4.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves
NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) 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 quan- tity 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 de- livery 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.

Oil Change TimingOil changes every 3,000 miles used to be required jobs, just like cleaning the accumulated fuzz from record player needles or defrosting freezers. Today, advances in engine design and lubricants make oil changes something to be done when the schedule calls for it, not when granddad says it’s time. Most of today’s cars call for 5,000-mile change intervals. Follow your Dealers’ mileage recommendations and use the oil called for by the manufacturer.
