Bothell boy killed on I-405 in Kirkland, struck by multiple vehiclesBY RAECHEL DAWSON

[email protected]

A 16-year-old Bothell boy was killed on Interstate 405 in Kirkland Saturday morning.

Lukas De� esta’s body was found near exit 22, which leads to the Northeast 160th Street bridge overpass between the Evergreen Hill and north Juanita neighbor-hoods.

“� ey’re looking at it as he either jumped or fell,” said Washington State Patrol Trooper Chris Webb. “But the disturbing part of that incident was the

subject, when laying on the roadway, was struck several times by di� erent cars.”

Webb said one person stopped at the scene and another called state patrol to let them know they had hit the boy but he esti-mates there was probably more than two vehicles that hit the teen.

De� esta’s cause of death was from blunt force injuries of the head, trunk and extremities, ac-cording to the King County Medical Examiner’s O� ce.

� e freeway was closed for a few hours Satur-

day morning during the investigation, which is still ongoing.

Washington State Patrol detectives are seeking wit-nesses to De� esta’s death.

Anyone who may have observed the victim, who was wearing pants, tennis shoes, a black sweatshirt with large headphones or believe they may have struck an object in the area around 4:40 a.m. on Saturday are urged to call Sergeant Detective Stacey Moate, (425) 401-7745, or Detective Greg Wilcoxson at (425) 401-7746.

Friends and family mem-bers placed roses, notes to De� esta, photos and other

items that reminded them of the teen on the North-east 160th Street freeway overpass. Tea lights were lined along the south side of the bridge, as if there was a recent memorial.

“… It will never be the same without you. You never failed to put a smile on everyone’s face. God gained a new angel. Rest in paradise Lukas, I’ll see you eventually,” said a letter signed “your drunk best friend.”

Other letters and notes said De� esta was his friend’s “anchor” and helped his friend through many “rocky situations.” Another said, “De� esta, I love you man.

Remember to pre-game and post-game in heaven.”

And others commended

him for his kindness, sup-port, understanding and love.

Sixteen-year-old Katie Burkett wants to be a mineralogist.

And typical high school events, such as prom or pep assemblies, were never a big deal to her.

Instead, she’s look-ing forward to “flipped” learning at her new private high school L&E Academy that will allow her to work on individu-alized projects so she can advance her interest in earth sciences.

“I’ve been through public and home school,” Katie said. “I’m looking forward to being able to build up my education around things I want to do.”

The Kirkland high school L&E Academy, which stands for “Leader-ship and Entrepreneurial Academy,” will begin on Sept. 3 at Northlake Unitarian Universalist Church and is for kids who haven’t quite found the right fit.

“Maybe they’ve been

homeschooled and they’re used to having a lot of say in how they learn and they tried public school and tried the system but it felt really regimented and they want more of a voice,” said founder and Executive Director Maureen O’Shaughnessy. “Maybe students have been frustrated with the pace and they want to go at their own speed, faster or slower.”

A Public Health inspec-tor closed the shaved ice store near Peter Kirk Pool the morning of Aug. 13 for being an imminent health hazard.

Summer Crush Shave Ice, located at 380 Kirk-land Ave. was closed at 11:40 a.m. for not having a hand wash facility, for not having a valid plan re-view approval for a permit and for failing to obtain a valid permit to operate the business.

“Those are all pretty im-portant reasons why they shouldn’t operate,” said King County Public Health spokeswoman Hilary Karasz. “It sounds like they never had a permit.”

Summer Crush Shave Ice has been a vendor with the city of Kirkland since 2007 and in May 2013 the owner renewed the contract with the city.

City spokeswoman Marie Stake said it is the vendor’s responsibility to obtain the required permits, including a food health permit, and that it appears the vendor ob-tained the wrong type of Public Health permit.

“The recent develop-ments with Summer Crush Ice have made us

recognize the need to evaluate the vendor ap-plication and selection process to better ensure that they have obtained all necessary permits,” she said.

Although the business did not have a permanent hand washing facility, city officials said he did have a temporary hand washing station. However, King County Public Health requires Summer Crush to have a permanent hand washing station.

Karasz said the vendor was trying to operate his business under a tempo-

rary permit since Sum-mer Crush is usually

only open during the summer.

But she said “a temporary permit

in the food code is for an event, like a

fair, and [vendors] can only have them for 21 days” and that a seasonal operator needs a regular permanent permit.

“The city expects its vendors to comply with all of our required terms of the agreement,” Stake said.

It is unknown if Sum-mer Crush Shave Ice is cooperating with Pub-lic Health to obtain a permanent permit or a permanent hand washing facility.

shellfish infections running double summer average; oyster fans beware

A saltwater bacteria has sickened more than twice the number of people in King County this summer than typically is reported during this period – leading health officials to warn of the dangers of eating raw or undercooked shellfish.

During July, there were 13 confirmed or probable cases of Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection in King County, compared to an average of four reported in that month in recent years. Since the beginning of August, an additional eight cases have been confirmed, while typi-cally King County would see six for the entire month.

“This is probably the tip of the iceberg. For every case that is reported, an estimated 142 additional cases go unre-ported,” said Dr. Jeff Duchin, Chief of Communicable Disease for Public Health–Seattle & King County.

People typically get vibriosis from eating raw or undercooked shellfish, particularly oysters, that have Vibrio bacteria in them. Those with pre-existing medical condi-tions or who take antacids regularly are at higher risk for illness from Vibrio infection. Cooking shellfish until the shells just open is not enough to kill Vibrio bacteria. Shellfish should be cooked to an internal

temperature of 145 degrees F for at least 15 seconds.

Symptoms of Vibrio infec-tion can include moderate to severe diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, fever, chills and headache. Vibrio bacteria also can cause a skin infection when open wounds are exposed to warm seawater.

“We have warnings on menus about the risks of eat-ing raw shellfish, but people might not always get the message or know that the risks are much higher this time of year,” Duchin said.

Vibrio bacteria occur naturally in marine waters, and they grow more rapidly during the warm months. That’s why Vibrio levels in shellfish increase during the summer, and infections in humans normally peak in late summer. It’s possible that the early warm streak in July has led to a longer period of Vibrio presence in local waters. Once water temperatures begin to cool in October, the bacteria decline.

The worst outbreak in recent years came in 2006, when Washington had 80 lab-confirmed Vibrio cases and King County had 36 confirmed cases. In 2012, King County had 26 cases of vibriosis for the entire year; so far in 2013, 22 confirmed or probable cases have already been reported.

For more information, visit the King County’s Vibriosis website.

August 23, 2013[4] www.kirklandreporter.com

There’s nothing worse than moving, espe-cially if it means changing cities, schools and friends.

Not too long ago, I had to make this dras-tic change. I’m originally from Redmond but moved to Kirkland mid-semester. At � rst, I was beyond furious; I didn’t want to leave my home,

my school and my friends. When I transferred to Lake

Washington High School in late February, I convinced myself that I would hate it and my life would be miserable from that point on.

But much to my surprise, I actually ended up really liking

my new home, school and friends. For Lake Washington, every student must complete a culminating project in order to graduate and my immediate thought was to intern at the Kirkland Reporter.

Ever since I was 11 years old I knew that I wanted to pursue a career in journalism and I knew that this would be the golden opportunity for me to get hands-on experience. Getting my project proposal approved was a cinch compared to actually getting an interview.

But believe me, it was worth it. I have enjoyed every moment working here and I have learned so much, it’s incredible.

One of the things I’ve learned is how to conduct an interview. For my � rst piece, I had to interview two people concerning the Moss Bay Cardboard Boat Regatta at this year’s Summer-fest. I had no idea where to start.

But my editor Carrie Rodriguez and reporter Raechel Dawson told me that the basics for any interview are “who, what, where, when, why and how.” With that, I formed my questions for the

interviews.But forming questions wasn’t my only chal-

lenge. Being a rather shy person, I felt extremely anxious at the thought of talking to complete strangers and asking them a bunch of questions. Before my very � rst interview, I was ridden with such anxiety that I nearly felt sick.

Soon I realized that I would just be talking to another person, another human, and it wasn’t as terrifying as I made it out to be.

In addition to learning how to conduct interviews, I’ve also learned how to structure an article. To write an article, you have to start with a “hook” - something to grab the reader’s attention. � en, you go into a “nut graph.” A nut graph is the paragraph that tells what the story

is about, so people know why to keep reading. A� er the nut graph, there’s the body. � e body is the main core of the article, with all the facts, statistics and quotes. And of course, there’s the conclusion, which o� en ties back to the hook or relays a strong quotation from the main subject.

� is is without a doubt a once-in-a-lifetime experience and I will be forever grateful to not only the Kirkland Reporter but to you, the read-ers, for supporting it.

Had I never moved to Kirkland I would not have had this life-changing experience.

A drastic change ends up a life-changing experience

Be aware of the dangers of coyotes

At approximately 2 a.m. Sunday morning I looked out a window to see about a noise I heard. � ere was what at � rst looked like a dog in my front garden. It quickly jumped over a small fence back towards the street on 106th Avenue Northeast.

I went outside and made a whistling sound to get its attention. � e animal stopped in the street and it was then that I realized this wasn’t a dog.

Having seen coyotes before, I knew that was what was in front of me. Suddenly a second coyote came running down the street from the south on 106th Avenue Northeast. Both of the coyotes disappeared as I grabbed a camera and drove down the street in an e� ort to photo-graph one.

I noted seeing two wild rabbits cross the street as I looked for the coyote, no doubt one of the meals of choice.

I’d like some type of warning issued to this area so people are aware of the dangers. I’ve reported this to both the Kirkland Police Department and Washington State Fish & Wildlife.Ed Kean, Kirkland

Slurry seal work on city streets was a horrible idea

I live in the Brookhaven neighborhood and the city is in the process of doing a slurry overlay. � is was a horrible idea. � e streets

are like driving on a gravel road. We had two days notice that the city was doing this, with no input from us who live here. I drive a brand new car and I am afraid of driving over this new surface. Not only that but the smell is disgusting.Tami Miller, Kirkland

Mayor wants Kirkland to look like Seattle

Mayor Joan McBride’s recent op-ed piece is illusionary and disingenuously dangerous. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mayor McBride has done more to reduce our quality of life in Kirkland and it hasn’t been graceful. It’s been irresponsible.

We have more and longer tra� c jams, prop-erty taxes that increase at a rate three times faster than our cost-of-living allowance, which takes our money that we need to maintain and improve our quality of life.

We are paying more for reduced services. She condones and promotes funding regional expenses rather than funding projects that bene� t Kirkland. She exports our money. She has not represented the citizens of Kirkland.

Citizens have worked hard just to be able to live in Kirkland. Her vision of Kirkland doesn’t preserve and improve our quality of life. She would rather create and fund free-loaders at the expense of existing Kirkland’s resources.

� ere’s no doubt about it. She is sincere. � e problem is that she wants Kirkland to look more like Seattle than the suburban communi-

ty it is now. It’s good that she’s leaving. I would hate to think that whoever is elected will not prove to be as phony as Mayor McBride.Robert Style, Kirkland

What the new health law means for you

In just over two months, millions of Ameri-cans – some of whom have no healthcare coverage and some who are currently covered by their employer – will be looking for the facts about the new health law. AARP is here to help.

� ere is no argument that there is a lot to learn about the law, but the new bene� ts and protections will help the people of Wash-ington. Its many provisions include a better Medicare drug bene� t and new protections for health insurance consumers.

For people without insurance or who buy it on their own, the law creates the new Wash-ington HealthplanFinder to get the coverage you need, with bene� ts starting next year.

AARP wants people to understand what the health law means for them, and we are o� ering tools to help people get the facts. Visit HealthLawAnswers.org today for straight talk on what the law means you and your loved ones.

As AARP’s Washington state president, I am well aware that opinions on this law vary. But whatever you think of the law, it makes sense to know what it means for you and your family. John Barnett, Kirkland

RepoRteR NewspapeRs

Eight months after 57-year-old Kirkland native Lucinda Pieczatkowski was hit by a truck and killed on a dark road near Snoqualmie, King County prosectors filed charges against a young man from North Bend.

Senior deputy prosecuting attorney Amy Freedheim filed one count of a felony hit-and-run Aug. 7, against Cody Joseph Eads, 19.

An arraignment is sched-uled for Wednesday, Aug. 21.

According to the prosecu-tion’s case summary, King County Sheriff’s detectives believe Eads left a New Year’s party around 1:30 a.m. on Jan. 1, and drove home on Stone Quarry Road outside Snoqualmie. There, he alleg-edly struck Pieczatkowski, who graduated from Lake Washington High School in 1974, with his Ford F150 pickup without stopping or calling for help. Eads was 18 at the time.

Pieczatkowski, who was a North Bend resident, died from catastrophic inju-ries, according to charging documents. Her body was discovered in a ditch a few hours later.

The next day, charging papers state the Eads family attorney contacted sheriff’s deputies, informing them that the truck involved in the crash was parked at the

family home. The truck was impounded for a search warrant. Detectives believe it had damage consistent with striking a pedestrian and that debris found on the road matched the truck, court papers state.

According to charging documents, state investiga-tors spoke to Eads’s girlfriend and the parents who hosted the New Year’s party over the following months to build their case. Detectives also tracked Eads’s cell phone, and allege that his movements put him at or near Stone Quarry Road early on Jan. 1, court papers continue.

According to media reports, Pieczatkowski, her boyfriend, her son and his girlfriend were driving on Stone Quarry Road after a night out, when an argument began.

Pieczatkowski and her boyfriend got out of the car and began walking in opposite directions on the road. When the driver, Pieczatkowski’s boyfriend, returned to the car she was missing and he began to drive around, looking for her. Unable to find her, the group went home. Her boyfriend returned but, still unable to find her, contacted police, who discovered her body.

An autopsy report showed that Pieczatkowski died from blunt force to the head and torso.

A Kirkland man suspected of driving under the influence

was charged with vehicular assault after he sped on In-terstate 405, clipped the back of another vehicle and rolled into a ditch on Saturday morning.

Emil Rafikov, 29, was driving a black 2006 Lincoln Town Car southbound on I-405 just south of Exit 17 when he clipped the back end of a 66-year-old Kirk-land woman’s 1999 Dodge Caravan, according to the

Washington State Patrol.Driving at a high rate of

speed, Rafikov lost control of his car, went off the roadway and his vehicle rolled over into a ditch around 1:44 a.m. south of Northeast 70th Place.

Neither Rafikov nor the Kirkland woman were in-jured; however, a passenger in Rafikov’s car was injured and transported to Harborview. Both vehicles were totaled and impounded.

Rafikov was booked into King County Jail.

The Washington State Patrol said drugs or alcohol were involved in the crash.

Kirkland Kiwanis sponsors youth program

The Kirkland Kiwanis Foundation is proud to be a sponsor of the Kirkland Teen Union Building (KTUB)/YMCA Youth In-stitute Program launched this summer.

The program, which lasts eight weeks, is com-prised of intense work-shops focusing on digital media arts, creative writ-ing, scripting, storyboard-ing and oral presentations. At conclusion, the students will have created their own digital films and music, a magazine, 3D animation and website. 

The program uses technology as an integral mechanism for promoting positive youth develop-ment, post secondary edu-cation, and career readi-ness of culturally diverse

urban high school youth. Participants improve academically and develop stronger ties to their com-munity, having learned leadership, coping and decision making skills. 

“In our first year as a Youth Institute Replication site, the words that come to mind to describe these youth are courage, tenacity and impact,” said Emily Smith, KTUB’s director. “I am confident that our first-ever family of Youth Insti-tute graduates have a sense of accomplishment that only comes from pushing themselves beyond their previous limits.” 

The participants are focused and excited about their newfound skills, the upcoming school year and their futures.

KTUB invites the public to attend the graduation ceremony for these youth at 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 16 at KTUB, located at 348 Kirkland Ave., Kirk-land. 

Kirkland pump station ahead of schedule

King County’s Kirkland Pump Station project at-tained a major milestone when brand new pumps and a 16-inch force-main sewer line were put into service on July 31.

Project completion and the reopening of Park Lane will likely occur in spring 2014, several months ahead of schedule.

Crews will now remove the station’s 40-year-old pumps and reconfigure the east portion of the pump station building located at the intersection of Park Lane and Third Street.

Remaining work entails installing a new emergency backup power generation,

completion of a surge con-trol system, restoration and landscaping.

King County began con-struction on the $20 million pump station project in 2011 to ensure safe, reliable waste-water operations for the city of Kirkland’s growing population. The new, larger capacity pump station will operate more efficiently and employ odor control.

Contractor to remove Cross Kirkland Corridor rails end of August

Three weeks after the federal Surface Transportation Board ruled in the city of Kirkland’s favor - allowing rail removal - workers with A&K Railroad Materials, Inc. of Salt Lake City, Utah, are getting ready to begin salvage work set for late August.

Expected to be complete by the end of October, the work will also include restora-tion of all disturbed areas. During project work, A&K will provide, install, and maintain temporary slope and erosion control using best management practices to protect sensi-tive areas. City crews will follow the contrac-tor during rail removal and complete needed ditch maintenance in order to improve drainage.

The rail bed, which is the elevated gravel area, will remain intact as the city develops future options for future regional rail. Work-ers will not remove the rails or repave the nine existing street crossing locations, but it will be done in a future contract as part of interim trail construction scheduled to begin in early 2014.

“There is great excitement about the future of the corridor,” said City Manager Kurt Triplett. “This work continues the realiza-tion of the longtime vision of city leaders and the community to create a destination that enhances Kirkland’s livability. Once the rail materials are gone, construction will begin on the interim trail, which is envisioned to be a multi-use regional facility connect-ing communities around and across Lake Washington.”

Interim trail design is about 60 percent complete and construction is anticipated to begin in early 2014 and finish in the spring of 2014, city officials said.

The interim trail will be built on the exist-ing rail bed and will have all-weather crushed gravel extending from the South Kirkland Park and Ride at 108th Avenue Northeast to Totem Lake at 132nd Avenue Northeast. Road crossings will be upgraded to include new signage, lighting, markings and, in some locations, rapid flashing crosswalk beacons. Additionally, railing or fencing will be installed where required for safety and to

protect sensitive areas.Funding for the Cross Kirkland Corridor

interim trail is supported by the voter-approved parks levy, state and other agency grants and the city’s Capital Improvement Program. The work required to remove the steel rail, the miscellaneous hardware and railroad cross ties are estimated to cost less than the current market value of the salvage-able material. A sizable percentage of the existing rail material is highly sought after by “short-haul” railroad companies. As a result, it is anticipated that the removal of the rail material and grading of the rail bed will bring a credit of approximately $35,000 to the city.

In April 2012, the city purchased a 5.75 mile segment of the Eastside Rail Corridor, naming it the “Cross Kirkland Corridor” for recreation, transportation and economic development purposes.

Currently, there are 1,100 businesses with 11,000 employees along the Cross Kirkland Corridor within 2,000 feet of the corridor, including EvergreenHealth Medical Center, Google, Nintendo and Astronics Advanced Electronic Systems.

The city will continue its outreach efforts on the Cross Kirkland Corridor Master Plan. The city’s consultant, Berger Partnership, will present initial findings to the Transportation Commission on Aug. 28 with a Kirkland City Council study session scheduled for Sept. 17. Information will also be presented from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Oct. 19 during a Commu-nity Planning Day at the Peter Kirk Commu-nity Center.

Gas leak prompts closure of Totem Lake Boulevard

A gas line severed by a city contractor that caused a natural gas leak prompted Kirkland police and fire officials to close Totem Lake Boulevard and evacuate a shopping center Tuesday morning.

Police and fire personnel responded to a report of a natural gas leak at the 12500 block of Totem Lake Boulevard around 10:50 a.m.

The initial investigation revealed that a two-inch gas line was severed by a contrac-tor working on a city culvert project. Puget Sound Energy was on-scene and shut off the gas. Fire officials said people were evacuated from six businesses within a shopping strip mall located on the west side of Totem Lake Boulevard. Additionally, both directions of

Totem Lake Boulevard were closed. By 12:15 p.m. the road was open and people were al-lowed to return to the businesses.

City seeks business feedback about Internet connectivity via survey

Internet connectivity is a strong driver of economic success and the city of Kirkland is evaluating business connectivity inside its city limits. Kirkland businesses are encouraged to complete an online survey about business Internet connectivity Aug. 31.

The survey can be found at www.kirkland-wa.gov/bizsurvey and contains 10 questions. Because business needs vary, it is important for various types of businesses to complete the survey. Results of the survey will be posted online at www.kirklandwa.gov.

For more information about the survey, contact Brenda Cooper, chief information of-ficer, Information Technology Department at (425) 587-3051 or [email protected].

Participants will even take a fascinating field trip to a compost facility. Graduates of the course volunteer 20 hours of composting and recycling education to their communities.

City awarded state grant for conservation improvements

As a recent recipient of an energy efficiency grant from the Washington state Depart-ment of Commerce, the city will soon make improvements to city-owned buildings within the next 12 months. The improvements will save money, reduce power use and reduce carbon dioxide emissions in future years.

On Aug. 6, the Kirkland City Council for-mally accepted the $208,000 grant from the Energy Efficiency Grants for Higher Educa-tion and Local Governments program.

The cost of Kirkland’s energy efficiency building improvements will total approxi-mately $847,000, which will be off-set in part by the $208,000 grant and an estimated Puget Sound Energy utility incentive estimated at $51,840.

Additional funding will come from the city’s facilities sinking fund reserves, which will be reimbursed over time by the estimated energy, water and sewer savings of at least $47,000 per year.

Grant funding will provide retrofitted water fixtures in all city buildings, LED lights in exterior and parking lot lights, LED lights will be added to exit signs, and dimming LED lamps will replace existing incandescent fixtures in certain locations of the Kirkland Performance Center.

Additionally, the single-pane windows in the city-owned building at 505 Market Street will be replaced with energy efficient, double paned windows; existing double paned windows with failed seals will be repaired or replaced, and new door seals will be applied to the building envelope.

The building envelopes at fire stations 22 (Houghton) and 27 (Totem Lake) will receive new caulking and door seals to reduce energy loss.

Improvements to the heating and cooling systems within Public Works maintenance buildings will allow for the more energy ef-ficient operation of equipment.

An audit of city facilities was conducted in 2012 so that the city of Kirkland could hire, through the state’s contracting program, a company to provide oversight to the grant application and project implementation.

As a person ages, it is normal for driving abilities to become impaired. By reducing risk factors and instilling safe driving practices, many individuals may continue to be behind the wheel safely well into the senior years. However, it is important to pay attention to warning signs that age may be impacting driving ability and make the appropriate adjustments as needed.

If you are concerned about a senior driver and have seen the warning signs that it may be time to give up the keys, there are steps that can be taken to make the transition easier. Remember, driving means independence for most, and the tact taken to help a senior stop driving must be gentle. Here are some steps to help:

1. Create a workable trans-portation plan. Before drop-ping the ball on your loved one’s inability to drive, have a transportation plan in place, complete with the names and

phone numbers of family members, friends and those

who are willing to give rides. Be sure to let your loved one know that they do not have to give up their social activities, but may need to rely on others for help.

2. Show your support. When your senior learns of their inability to drive, they may have a lot of questions. Be available to listen and o� er support, and let them know that you are there for them.

3. Have a physician or authority � gure speak to the senior. If the senior does not want to listen to friends and family, have the physician, pastor or authority � gure speak to your loved one. � e encouragement and reassur-ance from an outsider can o� er a new perspective on the situation.

4. Contact the insurance company. If your loved one is stubborn in their need for independent transporta-tion, you can reach out to

Medicare or the automobile insurance company for help. � e insurance companies may assess the driver’s record and age and submit a request for a driving evaluation. Your senior will need to comply if they want to continue receiv-ing bene� ts and coverage.

5. Report anonymously to the Department of Motor Ve-hicles. While this tactic may seem sneaky, if you are truly concerned for your loved one’s life and other people’s safety, you may need to pick up the phone and get the help you need. When you speak with department it is appro-priate to remain anonymous and report the unsafe driver. � e department should con-tact the individual and have him or her complete a driving evaluation to ensure that they are a safe driver. Precautions will be taken following the driving exam.

Tech Director at Se-attle Academy of Arts and Sciences Vicki Butler, who will be the princi-pal and STEM director; and O’Shaughnessy are preparing to donate their time this � rst semester to educate � ve students. � ey hope to � ll the classroom with 10 high schoolers by September.

“� e biggest thing we’re doing is � ipped cur-riculums,” O’Shaughnessy said. “Flipped classrooms really puts the students in charge. � ey come and engage and they’re em-powered, and they do a lot more of the leading and we do more facilitating.”

Students will receive a mini-lesson sent online usually in the form of a video where they can pause, rewind and have the opportunity to fully un-derstand what is being said before class time. � en, during class, students and teachers are expected to engage in hands-on activi-ties related to the speci� c subjects, which include English, social studies, math, science, humanities, STEM - robotics included, leadership and a choice class.

“What they choose for their sixth class, they get to create,” O’Shaughnessy said. “It can be online, it can be hot yoga, they have a say. We just want them to be life-long learners.”

Each student will meet with advisors to create an individualized learn-ing plan with academic, social and physical goals in mind, and a trusted adult will also be involved to ensure the student is sup-ported in his or her goals.

L&E Academy will o� er students the opportunity to meet with community leaders and will include a slew of � eld trips to places such as a Kirkland graphic design company or Lake Washington Institute of

Technology.And on Wednesdays or

“leadership day,” members of the Toastmasters Club will help students work on their public speaking skills with an interactive guest speaker in the a� ernoon. Senior internships, entre-preneurial projects and an emphasis on student passion are also wrapped together at L&E Academy.

“Instead of doing vol-unteer hours somewhere, it’s about being an entre-preneur and giving back to the local community in something that strikes them, such as human tra� cking, ecology or whatever their passion is,” O’Shaughnessy said. “… If we keep lining up

with their passion, then hopefully learning will be engaging and not ‘I have to do this.’ � en hopefully they’ll start to learn more about what their skills and gi� s are … We want them to really know them-selves and go with their strengths.”

For the � rst year, parents will pay $1,105 in monthly tuition, which is substantially discounted based on the average private school tuition rate - around $1,905, accord-ing to O’Shaughnessy. However, depending on

L&E Academy’s revenue, scholarships may also be available for students in the future.

“We’re hoping to give as many scholarships this year and into the future just so it’s not limited in terms of socioeconom-ics,” O’Shaughnessy said, adding laptops will also be provided to students. “We’re really about be-ing inclusive in as many ways as possible and we don’t want � nances to be exclusive.”

Class will start at 9 a.m. and end at 3:45 p.m. every

weekday and students are expected to bring their own lunch.

Northlake Unitarian Universalist Church is

located at 308 Fourth Ave. S in Kirkland.

Clarence is a beautiful 5 year orange long haired tabby, who looks like a little lion boy. He was declawed by his original owner so he will absolutely need to always & forever be an inside cat. He is playful and loves attention. He will probably do best in a quieter home---he seems a bit intimidated by dogs & noisy little children. He will give you his heart and lots of affection. You can meet him at Dooley’s Dog House.

Lake Washington school board proposes levy and bond measures for February election

At its Aug. 5 meeting, the Lake Washington School District board of directors voted to place two levies and one bond measure on the ballot in February 2014. � e levies would replace current measures that expire at the end of 2014. � e bonds would build schools to house projected enrollment growth and to replace existing aging schools.

� e board reviewed information from community meet-ings, surveys and feedback from community partners. An advisory committee developed the measures considered by the board based on this information.

� e � rst of the three measures, the Educational Programs and Operations Levy, will replace the expiring levy. It will cost $1.85 per thousand dollars of assessed value on each home in their property taxes. � e levy funding makes up about 23 percent of the district’s general fund revenues. It provides funding for basic items such as textbooks, insur-ance, utilities and maintenance; teacher planning, prepara-tion and training; and athletics and activities.

� e proposed capital projects levy will replace an expir-ing levy to fund both facility and technology projects. � e levy would cost 91 cents per thousand dollars of assessed value. � is measure would raise:

• $21.2 million for building systems replacement and improvements, such as new roofs

• $4.8 million for site improvements, including athletic � eld and playground upgrades

• $9.3 million for school and program building improve-ments

• $6.3 million to for code, compliance, health and safety projects

• $20.7 million for technology infrastructure and support• $28.5 million for technology equipment, including

replacement of student computers on a four-year lifecycle• $9.3 million for instructional so� ware and support

systems• $8.8 million for business system and technology opera-

tions so� ware and support• $18.3 million for technology training and professional

development� e bond measure would raise $755 million to build new

schools needed to accommodate growth and to modernize existing schools. � e new schools are needed based on the district’s projections of enrollment growth of 4,200 students over the next four years. Over the next eight years, the bond will enable the district to build new schools and space for students, including three new elementary schools, one middle school, additions for Lake Washington and Eastlake high schools, a STEM-focused high school on the west side of the district and an international-focused high school on the east side of the district.

� e last two schools would enroll students from through-out the district.

� e funds for modernization would replace three schools in Kirkland (Juanita High School, Kamiakin Middle School and Kirk Elementary School), two in Redmond (Evergreen Middle School and Rockwell Elementary School) and Mead Elementary School in Sammamish.

� e overall tax rate with the replacement levies and the new bond measure would be $4.73 per $1,000 of assessed value. � e increase for the average valued home in Lake Washington School District would be $365 per year, or $30 per month.

� e bond measure does not include funding to replace the Juanita High School pool; however, the scope of the Juanita High School modernization project does include replacement of the current � eld house and theater.

Pierce noted that when asked to rank in order priorities for potential additional funding for playgrounds and sports facilities, parents who were surveyed ranked the Juanita pool fourth out of � ve items. She stated that she does not want to see high school swim teams disappear and under-stands the desire of the community to keep the pool.

Pierce suggested that if the bond does pass, the school board could take action to dedicate money le� from the Phase 2 modernization program to partner with cities or other organizations to build a new community pool. She estimates that $10 to $12 million will remain once all the school projects are complete. � is partnership model could follow other successful partnerships the district has with cities in its jurisdictions, which share costs and use of sports � elds and could also include other interested stakeholder groups.

Massage Envy to o� er free massages to those living with arthritis Sept. 18

Massage Envy Spa and the Arthritis Foundation have joined forces to host the third annual Healing Hands for Arthritis, a one-day national event to build awareness and raise funds to � ght arthritis.

On Sept. 18, Massage Envy’s 24 Washington state clinics and spas will donate $10 from every one-hour massage session or facial to the Arthritis Foundation.

In addition, the Kirkland location will o� er those living with arthritis a free one-hour massage session, generously donated by Massage Envy members. Over the past two years, this one-day nationwide event has raised more than $1 million for the Arthritis Foundation, with Massage Envy in Washington state donating more than $30,000.

“� ere’s no better way to give back than to treat your-

self, a friend or family member to a relaxing and rejuve-nating massage or facial,” said Barney Nelson, regional developer for Massage Envy in Washington state. “We strongly encourage Washingtonians to come out on Sept. 18 to help � ght arthritis, a disease that is America’s leading cause of disability, a� ecting one in every four Washington residents, and 50 million Americans.”

Massage Envy is now accepting appointments for the Healing Hands for Arthritis event. To make an ap-pointment, contact a local Massage Envy by visiting the Massage Envy website. Reservations are accepted on a � rst-come, � rst-served basis. All proceeds donated during Healing Hands for Arthritis will support the Arthritis Foundation’s nationwide e� orts to prevent, control and cure arthritis. Massage Envy Spa and the Arthritis Foun-dation share a common understanding about the devastat-ing e� ects of arthritis on the body and the potential for massage therapy to relieve and control certain symptoms.

Kirkland, Waste Management team up to increase recycling at multi-family properties

Traditionally, multi-family recycling poses some challenges compared to residential recycling, say Waste Management o� cials. � ere tends to be a limited amount of space for recycling bins, carts or waste containers and limited access for trucks.

Nevertheless, those obstacles didn’t stop the city of Kirk-land and Waste Management from teaming up to increase recycling in multi-family properties in Kirkland.

In the spring, city o� cials visited 457 properties to talk to on-site property managers, update recycling container signs, and o� er tools and assistance.

As a follow-up, Waste Management went door-to-door at 77 properties to distribute recycling containers and guides and answer recycling questions.

Waste Management also created its � rst-ever split con-tainer dumpster — a dumpster split into two sections (one for recycling and one for garbage). � is dumpster will help increase recycling at properties that have trouble � nding space for recycling dumpsters. With the success of the pilot program, Waste Management and Kirkland will be rolling out more of these dumpsters to quali� ed properties.

“Our customers and the sustainability movement drive

our business,” said Je� McMahon, district manager for Waste Management. “It is exciting to be able to create in-novative solutions with our local zero waste partner, the city of Kirkland.”
