Incumbent City Council candidates in Enumclaw and Black Diamond fell into the loss column when the first votes were counted the night of the Nov. 3 general election. In Enumclaw, challenger Kim Lauk beat first-term Councilman Darrel Dickson for City Council Position No. 2. As of Friday Lauk had 1,311 votes, 56 percent, and Dickson 1,000, 43 percent.

A week from today, the Tacoma-Pierce County Board of Health will vote on a regulation that aims to limit underage use and possession of e-cigarettes and vaping products.
The board will be taking public testimony on the proposed regula-tion at approximately 3 p.m. Nov 18 before the vote.
The proposed regulation would make it illegal to use e-cigarettes and other vapor products in public places.
This includes adult-only venues
and places of work. Bans on e-ciga-rettes in the work place are optional at the discretion of the employer.
Although it has been illegal for e-cigarette and vapor product ven-dors to sell minors tobacco and vapor products, it has not been ille-gal for minors to possess e-ciga-rettes and liquid nicotine.
The proposed regulation would make it illegal for minors to possess all vapor products.
E-cigarette and vapor retailers will be required to have an annual permit to continue to sell vapor products if the regulation passes.
The annual retail permit fee is
estimated to be around $375.Finally, child-resistant packing
on vapor products will be required for e-cigarette and vapor products.
The Food and Drug Administration does not currently require vapor product packaging to be child-resistant.
What’s the harm?For those not in the know, e-cig-
arettes are electrical devices that vaporizes e-liquid for the user to inhale, unlike traditional cigarette, which release chemicals in the form

Bonney Lake administration suggests small tax increaseBy Ray Still
Reporter
With budget season com-ing up quick in Bonney Lake, forecasts are calling for a small hike in property taxes in 2016.
The City Council’s Finance Committee met on Oct. 27 to discuss a resolution that would allow Bonney Lake to increase its property tax by the 1 percent allowed by state
law since Initiative 474 was passed by voters in 2001.
“Things have been really flat. The budget is still going to be a challenge to balance,” said City Administrator Don Morrison. “So staff is recom-mending to take the tradi-tional 1 percent.”
A 1 percent raise means land and property valued at $200,000 will be taxed approximately $28 dollars
more annually.The city requires the
Resolution for Substantial Need, known more formally as Resolution 2484, in order to raise property taxes by 1 percent because the implicit price deflator calculated inflation to be up 0.251 per-cent from the previous year.
Initiative 474 allows cit-ies two options when rais-ing property taxes; they can
either raise property taxes by 1 percent or by adding the inflation rate.
The initiative forces cities to chose the option which would collect the least amount of money.
For Bonney Lake, this would mean increasing prop-erty taxes by 0.251 percent, which would result in an estimated loss of $21,190 for the city.
Not receiving that money “isn’t enough to lay off a per-son,” Morrison said, “but it means nobody can go to training for the whole year, or not having enough supplies to get by.”
There is a provision in Initiative 474 that allows cit-ies to raise property taxes by the full 1 percent and ignore a low inflation rate if they pass a Resolution of Substantial Need.
The city planned to dis-cuss and possibly vote on the
resolution Nov. 10 after press deadline.
Other changes to the bien-nial budget Bonney Lake passed last year will be mini-mal, Morrison said.
“We might tweak a little bit, move some things up and down a little administrative-ly, but the totals will be all the same,” Morrison said.
There is one new fund called the Debt Service Fund, he said, which the city was required to create by law for bond payments.

Spartans, Panthers in state football playoffs
The Sumner Spartans and Bonney Lake Panthers have punched their tickets to the state football championships.
Sumner hosted the Cleveland Eagles and won 41-8, improving to 10-0 on the season.
The game belonged to Sumner, scoring 41 unanswered points through the third quarter.
Cleveland scored its only points of the game with 2:48 remaining.

The Spartans held the Eagles to 81 pass-ing yards and 44 on the ground.
Five rushing touchdowns were scored by junior running back Connor Wedington.
He scored six on an 80 yard run, 2 yard, 1 yard, 12 yard and his final score of the game came off a 52-yard run.

The final Spartan touchdown of the eve-ning was an 11 yard pass from sophomore quarterback Luke Ross to junior tight end Michael Carey.
With the win, the Spartans enter the first round of the state tournament beginning at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13.
“We have a lot of confidence right now,” Ross said. “We feel the 3A South Puget Sound League is the toughest league in the state and to go through the season unde-feated has prepared us for the tough road ahead.”
The Spartans will be playing the Bishop Blanchet Braves from Seattle.
Bonney LakeThe Panthers improved to 6-4 overall
after beating Arlington 33-21 Friday.Bonney Lake rushed for 453 yards. More
than half of those were by senior Ethen Koepke who scored four touchdowns and finished the game with 295 yards on 30 carries.

The Panthers played a complete game on both sides of the ball.

Two questions came to my mind after seeing the results of the Nov. 3 elections: do vot-ers make good decisions in a democracy, or is it better that the uninformed not vote? And does the skill and knowledge that it takes to win an election actually serve that politician once in office? At this time in an off-year election year and with the presiden-tial election looming in 2016, these questions are extremely relevant.
Ever since we have had elections in this coun-try, the debate has raged whether all adult citizens should vote, or only those who are best educated and aware. At the beginning of this nation’s existence in the 1780s, only free, propertied, white males 21 and older were given the right to vote.
As this nation grew, the franchise was gradually extended to include all white adult males, then later, because of the passage of 13th, 14th and 15th amend-
ments after the Civil War, freed black adult males could, for a time, vote.
Later, with the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920, adult females were given the right to vote nationally.
Finally, in 1971, the 24th Amendment was ratified, giving 18-year olds the right to suffrage. This amendment passed due to the Vietnam War where soldiers younger than 21 were fighting
and dying for their country without any input over who was leading them.
Based on the vast number of amendments that have been ratified regarding the expansion of vot-ing rights, it seems that Americans believe the more people who vote the better it is for the nation. But is that really the case? As a civics and government teacher, a former elected official and an editorial pundit who writes about politics, I get very discour-aged at times about the ignorance of the average
Column critic unraveled point he tried to make
I just love it when conservatives argue against something and then unravel their own point in the very same letter.
David Asplund (Letters, Oct. 28) argues against the premise stated in an earlier Rich Elfers column stat-ing, “any virtue becomes evil without limits,” then he gives us the defini-tion of freedom. But then, in the very next paragraph he states quite clearly
and correctly that, “We are a nation of laws and the purpose of laws is to provide a ‘system of rules that a particular community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and may enforce by the imposition of penalties.’”
If that is not exactly what Mr. Elfers was talking about, then I guess I must have missed his point.

Election gave direction for city leaders to follow
Dear Citizens of Enumclaw,I am honored and humbled by the
outcome of this election and want to take this time to thank all of you for your support and trust in me to serve on your Enumclaw City Council for the next four years. I look forward to being sworn in and getting to work on your behalf.
I understand that this election is bigger than any one person or race and is a true reflection of the direc-tion that this community wants to go in coming years as we face signifi-cant pressures from the development industry. This is something that we must take on together with hard work, fresh ideas and integrity. Your

Everyone says your twenties are the best time of your life – the time where you can really � gure out what you want to do and take your time with it.
But, honestly, that’s just a bunch of rubbish.Yes, it is the time to � gure out what you want to do with
your life, but taking too long to � gure it out is actually going to negatively a� ect your thirties, forties and � � ies
a lot more than you think.
� e average demographic of our readership isn’t exactly a twenty-something. So, I’d like to ask you to share this with the twentysomethings in
your life.What I’m about to write is slightly outdated advice, but
just go with it.� e decisions you make as a twentysomething will
shape the rest of your life.Let that sink in a little bit.I’ll wait.OK. So what does that mean for you twentysome-
things? Do you need to have your entire life mapped out right now? Should you be in your forever career at this moment? Absolutely not. I mean, you can be. But don’t freak out if you’re not there yet.
� is just means that the next few years are really going to matter. Even if you have no clue what you want to do with your life, start taking steps to go SOMEWHERE, anywhere really. Get a degree or certi� cate, learn some-thing new, read a professional development book – I highly recommend “� e De� ning Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter—And How to Make the Most of � em Now” by Meg Jay – volunteer for a charity, � ne tune your favorite hobby.
Make a goal board. Or at the very least write down your goals somewhere. � is step is important. If you don’t physically write them down, they will only seem like far-fetched ideas or aspirations. Your goals will seem more attainable to your brain if you have them in writing and look at them on a weekly or monthly basis.
� e next step is to � gure out what you want your life to look like in � ve, ten years and then write down the smaller steps it’s going to take for you to get there.
In high school, I had a dream of being a photojournal-ist for National Geographic. But, I had this small-world view of that dream. I thought I could just be a reporter for a couple years and NatGeo would come knocking, which, obviously, didn’t happen.
Dreams take planning, patience and a proactive ap-
message in this race has been loud and clear and I will put the interests of the citizens, small businesses, families and seniors first before anything else. We need to protect Enumclaw and keep its historic rural character intact.
This will be a big chal-lenge and I am hoping that many more citizens will become involved in the process of saving our com-munity and helping it to thrive once again. I have been approached by many citizens who now want to help and get involved. Far too much has happened in recent years that our com-munity was not aware of. We need to shine a light on City Council business and I need your help to do that. We can begin by passing a Code of Conduct ordinance that the current council has resisted pass-ing for the last year and a half. I will propose such a ordinance and it will be one that will have teeth in it to hold council members accountable.
I will also be putting my efforts into addressing and getting others to acknowl-edge our growing drug problem that is echoed throughout Enumclaw
by an increase in crime. Ignorance is not bliss and though we are a not as bad off as our surround-ing larger cities, we are not immune to the effects of addiction that is being seen all over America in communities both big and small. The time to address this issue is now, head on and as a community.
Again, I thank you all for this opportunity to represent you on your City Council and strong-ly encourage citizens to become more involved in our city affairs as well as city government. The time to change our course and make a positive impact on the future of Enumclaw is now and by coming togeth-er we can achieve this as a community.

Time for all to work on behalf of Enumclaw future
Thank you to all citizens who voted in the recent election.
Your candidate may or may not have won, how-ever, now is the time to set aside any animosity and look toward the issues that face our city. Council needs to be working and creat-
ing positive conditions for every citizen, focusing on our city’s goal of improved roads, future job growth and a great education for all age levels.
For this reason let us all work towards the greater good for all of Enumclaw.

Writer’s criticism followed lead of Humpty Dumpty
Upon reading the recent letter (Courier-Herald, Nov. 4) critiquing Rich Elfers’ column on free-dom and chaos, I felt as if I had followed Alice down Lewis Carroll’s wondrous rabbit hole. Those familiar with Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland may remem-ber her conversation with Humpty Dumpty during which he proceeded to instruct her in his version of semantics:
“When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean – neither more than less.”
“The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.”
Fortunately, unlike Alice, we have handy access
to dictionaries to serve as arbiters of meaning. After searching through, by actual count, 21 dictionar-ies, both physical and elec-tronic, I discovered a general consensus on the meaning of the concept “freedom.” In varying forms, all of these sources generally agree that the contextually apropos definition of free-dom as used by Mr Elfers is: the absence of coercion or constraint in choice or action; or, the power to act, speak or think as one wants without restraints. Based on his own words, it is obvious the letter writer does not approve of actions without constraint by laws or rules, which would cer-tainly quality as chaos.
After a diligent search, I was able to run down the definition the letter writer referenced, only to find that it is not the defi-nition of freedom, which he claimed; it is, in fact, the definition of virtue. I will readily agree that freedom is a virtue but the two words are entirely unrelated to each other in meaning except by, per-haps, Humpty Dumpty.
The letter, in truth, makes exactly the same point (“enforce the laws that protect citizens from aberrant behavior”) while attacking him for it. Chaos is exactly what
occurs when there is no order. Chaos is another way of describing uncon-strained “aberrant behav-ior,” which the writer obviously abhors.
It appears that the let-ter writer is “straining at a gnat” in his criticism of the column in order
to denigrate what he considers a “liberal” and “arrogant” columnist. To criticize Elfers for attack-ing “virtue” while mis-defining it as “freedom” is, to coin a term, Humpty Dumptyish.

American voter.Because of my experiences, I have
learned there is much that goes on in politics that most voters are blithely unaware of. The attitudes of politi-cians, their decisions and their actions behind the scenes take place without the average voter really knowing or understanding.
These attitudes, decisions and actions have an enormous impact upon all of us. Sometimes, when I see low voter turnout, I rejoice, because I know many voters are uninformed and would make bad decisions if they took time to vote. At other times I’m deeply impressed that the voters got the right message and made informed decisions that will benefit the greatest number.
For my second question, there are four skil ls necessary to be an excel-lent politician:
1 – Sales and marketing: winning elections demands the ability to sell oneself –your goals and perspectives – to the voter. Not all of us are good at marketing.
2 – Coalition-building: having the social and emotional intelligence to work with others who may differ from you to do what’s right for the public. Many lack these “people skil ls” and thus are poor representatives.
3 – Advocacy: the ability to act as an intermediary between the con-stituent and the bureaucracy. The
government bureaucracy is often stu-pid, self ish and rule-bound. There are some constituents who need help working through the Byzantine maze. That’s one skil l al l politicians need to serve their public.
4 – Mental toughness: the maturity and the ability to deal with conf lict in a constructive way. Politics is often a dirty business where solutions are messy. There must be the willingness for our elected representatives to get their hands and feet into the mud and to hold their noses to the stench of human nature in the raw.
Few people have all these skil l sets. As a result we have all the problems and scandals that political opponents bring to the surface before elections. Some are true and some are manufac-tured to trick voters into voting for them.
The answer to my f irst question is that those who proposed and ratif ied the amendments knew that the great-er the participation in government, the greater chance of good results.
The answer to my second question is that it takes an elected off icial with a large toolbox of skil ls to be a success-ful politician. However, the system we have was so intelligently formulated that even when we have stupid and self ish public servants, good comes because the Constitution’s structure took human nature into account. We can be thankful to the founders of this nation for that.

This month, Hillside Community Church in Enumclaw will serve as a collection site for Operation Christmas Child , the world’s larg-est Christmas project of its kind. The annual Samaritan’s Purse project is a favorite of many Enumclaw residents, families, churches and groups who spread joy to millions of children around the world by filling shoeboxes with fun toys, school supplies, hygiene items and notes of encouragement.
“Through the simple act of filling a shoebox, someone in Enumclaw can make a tangible dif-ference in the life of a child halfway around the world,” Enumclaw volunteer coordinator Pam Stevens said.
At Hillside Community Church during National Collection Week, Nov. 16-23, anyone can drop off a gift-filled shoebox to send to a child overseas. The Enumclaw goal is to con-tribute 350 shoebox gifts to the 2015 global goal of reaching 11 million children in need.
Hillside Community Church is at 24015 S.E. 436th Way in Enumclaw. Collections will be accepted from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Nov. 16, 17, 19 and 20; 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Nov. 18; 9 a.m. to noon Nov. 21; 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. Nov. 22; and 9 to 11 a.m. Nov. 23.
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international Christian relief and evangelism organization.

White RiverThe regular season might
be tough, but postseason play is even tougher.
That was made pain-fully clear to the White River High girls soccer team. The Hornets rolled to a 16-0 mark during the regular season, including a perfect 14-0 record in South Puget Sound League 2A play. But the West Central/SeaKing District tourney brought a differ-ent outcome, as White River dropped two games and was eliminated.
The Hornets opened district play Nov. 5 with a 2-0 loss to Liberty High at Franklin Pierce Stadium.
Two days later, White River came away on the short end of a 2-1 score against the Steilacoom Sentinels.
Liberty went on to claim the district cham-pionship and Steilacoom grabbed the No. 4 seed, with both headed into this week’s Class 2A state tournament.
EnumclawThe Enumclaw High
girls won a pair of post-season soccer games but fell short of securing a
berth in the Class 3A state tournament.
Facing season-ending elimination both times, the Hornets first defeated the Hazen Highlanders, then beat nearby Bonney Lake. The run came to an end Saturday with a 4-0 loss at the hands of Columbia River, a team that advanced to state with the win.
Enumclaw f inished the regular season with a 9-5 mark in South Puget Sound League 3A play, 11-7-1 overall.
The West Central District 3/Southwest District 4 tourney began Nov. 3 with Enumclaw’s 2-1, shootout victory over Hazen. Mariah Bone scored Enumclaw’s regu-lation goal off an assist by Casey Ranft and EHS went on to win 5-4 in the shootout.
Facing elimination two days later, the Hornets responded with a 1-0 blanking of Bonney Lake at Sunset Chev Stadium in Sumner. In the second half, Amber Dunlap to an
assist from Olivia Adams to score the game’s only goal. Morgan Tinney and Gabby Quinett combined to register the shutout in goal.
That set the stage for
Saturday’s winner-to-state, loser-out affair with Columbia River. Playing at Highline Memorial Stadium, EHS was shut out and saw the season come to a close.
White River paired against Fife in
Class 2A openerWith a district volley-
ball championship safely tucked away, the White River High girls are now headed to the Class 2A state tournament.
The Hornets won four straight matches Friday and Saturday to take the No. 1 seed from the West Central District 3/SeaKing District 2 tournament, staged at Washington and Franklin Pierce high schools.
As district champions, the White River crew enters the state tournament, which will be conducted Friday and Saturday at St. Martin’s University in Lacey.
White River’s first state match is against a famil-iar foe, the Fife Trojans. Both are members of the South Puget Sound League
2A and met twice during the regular season; White River won both those con-tests 3-0.
The two will meet in state play at 11 a.m. Friday. If the Hornets win, they will play at 7 p.m. Friday against either Woodland or Pullman. Should the Hornets lose their open-er, they would play at 3 p.m. Friday against the Woodland/Pullman loser.
White River earned its district title with a hard-fought, 3-2 victory over North Kitsap. The Vikings won the opening game, but the Hornets battled back with 25-22 and 25-23 wins. North Kitsap took game four to set up a decisive finale, which White River captured in dramatic fash-ion, 16-14.
During the marathon match, Mahealani Stone tallied 44 assists; Kelsey Williams had 11 kills and
20 digs; Taylor Keating finished with 21 kills and 13 digs; Keegan Strobeck had 12 kills; and Megan Vandegrift registered 11 digs.
To get to the district title match White River had defeated Liberty High 3-2. It also was a five-game affair in which the opposi-tion took an opening-game victory. The teams alternat-ed the next three to force a deciding game five. The Hornets advanced with a 15-11 verdict.
In that semifinal match, Kendall Bird finished with 13 kills and four blocks; Stone at 26 assists and 10 digs; Strobeck had 18 kills and four blocks; and Hope Baldyga came up with 14 digs.
On the opening day of districts, White River posted a 3-1 victory over Olympic High and a 3-0 win over Foster.

Facing elimination, the Hornet crew responded by defeating Kelso and Capital. Then, in a match that decided fifth or sixth place, Enumclaw scored a 3-2 victory over Prairie High.

The fall tennis season ended Oct. 30-31 with the West Central District tournaments for both Class 3A and 2A players, which advanced top play-ers to the spring state champion-ships.
The Sumner Spartans finished seventh among the 10 teams at the WCD 3A tournament, which was contested at the Sprinker Recreation Center.
In singles play, Zaylan Jacobsen, a junior, placed fifth to advance to state play. The doubles pair of senior Elijah Evers and sophomore Kyle Van Hout also placed fifth to earn
their berth into the state tourney.The Class 3A state tournament is
planned for May 27-28 at a pair of sites in Kennewick.
Also participating in the West Central District tourney, but not qualifying for state play, were singles entries Gabe Smith of Sumner and Jeremy Kurtz of Bonney Lake, along with the Sumner doubles tandem of Marcus Peterson and Richard Mark and the Enumclaw High doubles team of Michael Blair and Connor Young.
The Class 2A district tournament was contested at the Kitsap Tennis and Athletic Club.
The field included two White River High singles players, along with a pair of doubles teams.
In singles, Logan Geehan – who won the league tournament – opened play with a 7-5, 6-2 loss to North Kitsap’s Tyler Meek. He was
then ousted by Cameron Dubos of Bremerton, falling 6-1, 6-3.
Kaden Phillips started with a 6-0, 6-0 loss to Matthew Richards of Sequim, but bounced back with a 6-1, 6-2 victory over Derek Petitt of Franklin Pierce. His tourney expe-rienced ended with a 6-2, 6-3 loss to North Kitsap’s Meek.
In 2A doubles, Hayden Grimm and Cedric Pearson opened with a 6-0, 7-5 victory over a Lindbergh High pair. The Hornet seniors then dropped a match 6-1, 6-0 to a North Kitsap team and were later eliminated 6-3, 6-1 by a Liberty High duo.
The White River team of Frank Inglin and Luke Funkhouser dropped their first two matches. They opened with a 6-0, 6-1 loss to Liberty and closed tourney play with a 6-0, 6-0 defeat at the hands of a Kingston High pair.
The weather was cold, points were nonexistant and White River players and fans went home disap-pointed.
Thus ended the 2015 campaign for the White River High football team, which lost 21-0 Thursday to the Decatur Gators.
The Hornets put the final touch on the season with a Week 10, home field con-test against the Decatur bunch from the South Puget Sound League 4A’s Northwest Division.
Week 10 contests typically are nonleague affairs involv-ing teams that fall short of making the playoffs.
That was certainly the case Thursday night in rural Buckley, as the Hornets and Gators stepped on the field with a combined record of one victory and 17 losses. White River had managed a league victory over a win-less Clover Park squad, while Decatur was winless
in nine tries.Thursday night, however,
went the way of the Gators. The visitors notched touch-downs in the first, third and fourth quarters to head home to Federal Way with their lone victory of a long season.
Decatur’s first touch-down came on a 10-yard run by Marcelo Berganza; the second-half TDs were by Christian Siva, the first on a 90-yard dash and the second on a 1-yard burst.
White River fans had limited opportunities to cheer, but were able to applaud a spirited goal-line stand by the Hornet defense to close out the second half. Then, on the opening play of the third quarter, White River added a bit of excite-ment by pulling a play from it bag of tricks. Tyler Meadows received a pass behind the line of scrim-mage, then launched a pass that was caught by Devyn Hager, who took the ball to near the Decatur 20-yard line.

White River ends season with loss to visiting Gators
By Kevin HansonSenior Writer
By Kevin HansonSenior Writer
Three Panthers to state tennisOthers are eliminated
during district play
Jason Silbaugh said.Arlington is a team that averages
four touchdowns a game, he said, and the Panthers held them to three.
Silbaugh said the Panthers “over-came adversity” during Friday’s win.
Bonney Lake received the ball to start the game and drove down field to the one yard line. The Panthers fumbled, however, and Arlington scooped it and returned it for a touchdown.
But that didn’t stop Bonney Lake.On their next drive, the Panthers
made it into the end zone.Arlington blocked the Panthers’
point after and Bonney Lake trailed
7-6.The Panthers scored another touch-
down before the half and went for a two point conversion but were unsuc-cessful.
Entering the half, Bonney Lake trailed 14-12.
The Eagles got the ball to start the second half and the Panthers stopped them.
On Bonney Lake’s next possession, the Panthers scored another touch-down to lead 19-14.
The Panthers scored two more times.
The win for Bonney Lake secured its bid in the first round of the state tournament.
The Panthers are scheduled to face the 10-0 Lincoln Abes.
Bonney Lake travels Friday, Nov. 13 to the Lincoln Bowl in Tacoma for a 7 p.m. kickoff.
“(This) just shows how tough the 3A is,” Silbaugh said. “Our league has prepared us for this.”
When it comes to preparing to play in the sweet 16, Silbaugh said in his 17 years of coaching, 13 of those at the high school level, he has learned that at this time of the season, you don’t change how you do things.
The Panthers may tweak a few things, he said, but successful teams do what they’ve been doing all season.
“Why fiddle around if you know what works,” Silbaugh said. “We’ve been practicing since June and have a lot in our tool box.”

The Courier-Herald’s2015 Best of The Plateau
The second week of November is a good time to put the garden and your garden tools to bed. If the weather provides a dry day, take advantage of this window to mow the lawn one last time before winter sets in. Try to use up all the gas in your mower before storing it for the winter. This is a good time to do other mower main-tenance including sharpening the mower blades as recommended by the maker of the mowing machine.
Collect the clippings from your last cut so you have green material to add on top of the compost pile. If you want to enjoy a tidy look all winter take the time to trim and edge your lawn as well. Keeping the leaves raked from the lawn will encourage a thicker turf that can crowd out weeds in the spring.
Q. Some people say I should leave my flowering plants to die back natu-
rally all winter while some experts recom-mend cutting back the tops of perennials
and annuals in the fall so the garden is tidy all winter. What is best for our climate in Western Washington? M.G., Puyallup
A. You can do fall garden clean-up
either way. If you decide to “chop and drop”,
leave the cut remains of tomato plants, marigolds, daylilies and daisies lying on top of the soil to provide winter protection and to slowly decay and add organic matter. The slimy side of this method is that slugs and other thugs can more easily overwinter. If you prac-tice “cut and carry away” your beds will be neat and clean but more exposed. The best way but the most work is to cut and carry (anything brown, cut it down) and place the debris into a pile with a topping of green grass clippings. In the spring add this composted mate-rial back onto your soil so it will hold more water and nutrients.
Q. Can I prune in November? Anonymous, email
A. Yes, you can remove anything dead, diseased or damaged any
time of year and by mid-November your trees and shrubs will have slipped into winter dormancy so you can thin out any crossing branches. Shorten up tall rose plants if they are rocking about in the wind but don’t get snippy with ten-der plants like hardy fuchsias, rose of Sharon hibiscus, jasmine or ceanothus. Wait until early spring to prune forsythia and quince and when it comes to rhodies and azaleas, remember, pruning after blooming.
Q. I have read that the best time to move or add peonies to the gar-
den is in the fall. What month of the fall? Is now too late to move my peonies? P.C., Tacoma
A. November is the perfect month to move or add new peonies to the
garden. Just remember that most peonies fail to bloom because they are planted too deep, so replant the thick and fleshy peony
root so the eye or growth bud is just below the surface of the soil. You can cut off the leafy green tops of your peony plants this month even if they don’t need a transplant (Don’t cut back tree peonies). Removing the foliage in the fall will help your peo-nies resist leaf blight on new growth in the spring.

oeing is coming up on a special year. In July, the company will be 100 years old. It’s a great success story, but Boeing didn’t do it alone. They’ve had incredible support from the com-
munity. It’s this special relationship between Boeing and its Puget Sound neighbors that will make its sec-ond century even better for the company and the com-munities where its employees live and work.
Boeing and Puget Sound have come far in their jour-ney together. Today, they’re major partners in interna-tional trade – with aerospace accounting for over half the state’s exports last year. Boeing is the largest single exporter in the U.S. – an important engine of the econo-my and a creator of jobs in the Puget Sound area.
Although Puget Sound is home to a number of major companies, Boeing remains the state’s largest private employer, with over 80,000 employees based here in Washington. In the past five years, Boeing and Ama-zon together accounted, directly or indirectly, for more than 40 percent of the jobs created in the Puget Sound region.
Commercial aviation is growing around the world, and Boeing’s success in global markets supports ris-ing production rates in Boeing factories around Puget Sound. At the same time, as Boeing increases its in-ternational growth, it is also providing support in Puget Sound communities where the majority of its employ-ees live.
Boeing support for Puget Sound communities
Boeing is an important presence in Washington state and in the lives of its residents, and has become a catalyst for positive change in millions of lives.
In 2014, Boeing, its employees and retirees gave more than $50 million to Washington state charities and nonprofit organizations. The continued growth in aviation means the Puget Sound region stands to re-ceive continued strong community support for health and human services, arts, environmental, culture and civic engagement.
Boeing employees are also playing a leadership role in supporting their communities where they live and work. Through the Employees Community Fund of Boeing Puget Sound, more than $9 million in financial assistance was provided to local nonprofits to boost education, human services and veterans support.
The company is also inspiring the next generation of Puget Sound leaders. More than 650 Everett middle school students have participated in Boeing programs focused on energy efficiency and renewable energy. Students are also learning about clean energy and en-ergy conservation due in part to a Boeing-funded sci-ence curriculum within the Everett School District.
Boeing partners with Everett Community College to train aviation mechanics, and has contributed more than $9 million to the United Way of Snohomish County and other organizations dedicated to service.
For the past five years, Boeing employees have vol-unteered to encourage recycling, employee engage-ment and community volunteering companywide. The Sustainables, a Green Team based in the Puget Sound, has completed about 80 site-based projects since 2010, contributing to a 74 percent increase in re-cycling and environmental education initiatives at the local sites.
Boeing also supports military personnel and fami-lies. The Employees Community Fund awarded a grant to USO Northwest to support the construction on a new USO Welcome Center at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, which will serve more than 10,000 military per-sonnel and their families each month.
Boeing is lead supporter for Rally Point 6, a nonprofit that helps veterans seeking employment, educational opportunities, assistance with benefits, housing or tran-sition advice. Since the center opened in March 2014, more than 1,750 military, veterans and their families have found support.
With Boeing winning in growing the aerospace mar-ketplace, Puget Sound residents will see a win of their own. As the state’s largest employer, Boeing has shown a commitment to giving time, talent and resources to build up the communities its employees call home.

China becoming powerful catalyst for Puget Sound economic growth
hina is projected to become the world’s largest commercial air-
plane market by 2030, creating opportu-nities worth billions for the Puget Sound region.
The country is already Washington’s largest trading partner, with nearly a quarter of all the state’s exports headed for Chinese markets. In 2014, more than $20.7 billion in goods were exported, in-cluding apples, cherries, hops and wine. Topping the export list is the aerospace industry and Boeing.
China’s rapidly growing aviation market plays a crucial role in Boeing’s current and future success, said Boe-ing Chairman Jim McNerney in a news release.
Boeing projects Chinese markets will need 6,330 new planes worth $950 bil-lion by 2034, making them the compa-ny’s largest potential customer.
While Boeing makes up more than 50 percent of the Chinese commercial airplane market, the company is in a stiff competition to win Chinese orders against European plane-maker Airbus.
The European company opened an airplane completion facility in Tianjin, near Beijing, in 2008 for the A320, and announced plans this summer to open a facility to finish interiors of the twin-aisle A330 in China. Boeing is leveling the
competition with its Sept. 23 announce-ment to open a similar facility in China.
The company’s 40-year business re-lationship with China, which helped de-velop its aviation industry, could give the Puget Sound region an added advan-tage to come out on top.
An investment treaty between China and the U.S. could provide a framework
for broader investment in U.S. and Chi-nese economies, according to previous reports.
Supporters say, if signed, an agree-ment with China would create “a powerful catalyst for more economic growth,” ac-cording to The Daily Herald. The agree-ment would open up more of its market to American companies, provide clearer rules for Chinese investment in the U.S. and create jobs on both sides. Nonethe-less, both sides have a long way to go in negotiating any investment agreement.
With Boeing’s announcement to build a China-based delivery center – the first of its kind outside the U.S. – job creation will be on the rise and employment on the 737 line in Washington will not be re-duced, according to a memo from Ray Conner, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes. The deal an-nounced Sept. 23 also involves deliver-ing 300 Boeing jets worth $38 billion, nearly double last year’s record delivery of 155 airplanes to China.
Despite the competition and obsta-cles before them, Randy Tinseth, Boeing Commercial Airplanes’ vice president for marketing, said in a Sept. 16 Daily Herald report, that selling in the Chinese market depends on the same fundamen-tals as in others: relationships, patience and investment.
For Boeing, all three are covered.

onBoeing and China
Q: What is the most important thing people need to know about China and Boeing?
A: Boeing is competing hard to win sales in China because China will become the world’s largest airplane market in the coming years, and our success there is vital to Boeing pro-duction and employment in the Unit-ed States and Puget Sound. This year, Boeing will deliver about 25 percent of all the airplanes we pro-duce, including about one in three 737s built in Renton, to China. And, over the next 20 years, Boeing has forecast demand there for more than 6,300 new airplanes valued at near-ly $1 trillion. One reason why China’s airlines are growing so rapidly is that its middle class is as large as the en-tire U.S. population yet, on average, people in China travel on airplanes a tenth as often as Americans.
Q: The Chinese economy seems to be struggling. Could this hurt Chinese demand for orders from Boeing?
A: Our forecast for airplane de-mand accounts for fluctuation in markets over a 20-year period. We’re confident that China’s economy and aviation sector will continue to see strong growth over the long term.
Q: What are the factors that de-termine whether Boeing or your competitor sells more airplanes in China?
A: First and foremost, Boeing has to deliver the best and most fuel-efficient airplanes and services to support our customers’ business
plans. In addition, we must continue to grow our 40-year presence and collaboration with China’s aviation industry because this supports our sales opportunities, market access and long-term growth. This is not surprising: Just as Americans like to buy products made in the USA, China and other countries expect Boeing to partner with their industry and contribute to their economies.
Q: Why has Boeing decided to establish a 737 finishing and de-livery center in China?
A: China is the key international market for the 737: This year, Chi-nese carriers will take delivery of one out of every three 737s that our employees build in Renton. With this in mind, a 737 completion and deliv-ery center makes sense for several reasons: it serves Chinese custom-ers by bringing the 737 closer to home, it adds capacity that will en-able our planned production-rate increases in Boeing’s 737 factory in Renton, and it allows us to col-laborate with Chinese industry in a way that supports our access to the China market.
Q: Will this new facility in China cause layoffs in the Puget Sound?
A: No. This facility in China in-creases Boeing’s 737 production capacity and will not result in layoffs or reduce employment for the 737 program. In addition, significant 737 sales to Chinese customers com-bined with this new China-based facility will enable higher 737 pro-duction rates on the 737 program in coming years.
Airplane sales to China are vital to Boeing, its workforce and the region’s prosperity. Boeing has worked with Chinese aviation industry stakeholders - including customers, suppliers, government agencies and others - in mutually beneficial ways for more than 40 years.

Boeing is a key driver of strong employment growth in the Seattle region over the past five years, according to a new economic study.
he Seattle metro area has experi-enced an impressive 15.5 percent
growth in employment since 2010, with 43 percent of jobs generated by two of the area’s largest employers: Boeing and Amazon, according to a Septem-ber report by the Seattle City Budget Office. In comparison, Washington State has seen 12.5 percent job growth and the U.S. overall 9.7 percent growth during that same time period.
Boeing and Amazon, both of which have had a long-established presence in the Puget Sound area (founded in 1916 and 1994 respectively), are re-
sponsible for the creation of high-skill, high-wage jobs with an average an-nual salary of $100,000 in Seattle and the surrounding areas. The economic robustness of these two major employ-ers over the past five years has been directly linked to the addition of thou-sands of other secondary and tertiary jobs, such as in construction, retail and service sectors, that, when combined, account for a substantial amount of job growth in the region. In light of this, en-suring Boeing and Amazon’s continued success will be a key factor in maintain-ing a healthy regional economy.

ike many Boeing people, 777/777X new hire mechanic Oleksandr
Shevchuk is passionate about air-planes. But what makes him – and 30 other recent hires – different is be-ing part of the inaugural class of high school and skill center graduates join-ing Boeing through a new accelerated hiring and training program.
“Making it to Boeing wasn’t easy,” Shevchuk said. “But as the saying goes, ‘hard work pays off,’ and I’m real excited to be here.”
During a high school career day and tour of the Sno-Isle Tech Skills Center in Everett, Shevchuk caught the aero-space bug. When he graduated in 2015 from high school in Edmonds, while also attending Sno-Isle Tech, he competed in the Washington state Skills USA Aircraft Mechanic Competi-tion and won. He finished top 10 nation-ally in the Skills USA competition.
This all from someone who spoke almost no English when he immigrated to America in 2008. He now speaks, reads and writes in Russian, Ukrainian and English.
He is currently pursing an Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) license and illus-trates the type of talent Boeing needs, Boeing leaders say.
“Today’s manufacturing tools and processes means our workforce must
continually learn and adapt to be suc-cessful,” said Walt Odisho, vice presi-dent of Manufacturing and Safety for Commercial Airplanes. “We can do a better job of attracting top talent and providing opportunities for current and new employees to develop the skills needed to succeed. If we do that, we can extend our reputation as a major hub for aerospace talent while provid-ing great jobs and careers.”
Record produc-tion levels coupled with worker retire-ments on the ho-rizon means Boe-ing expects to hire many more people for manufacturing jobs in Washing-ton state through the end of this de-cade. Boeing is also making invest-ments in advanced manufacturing that will transform the nature of manufac-turing jobs. Those
investments mean more preparation and training for current employees and future hires.
“We are working with our partners to help develop people with the skills needed by aerospace companies,” said Michelle Burreson, senior manager, Workforce Development & Integration at Commercial Airplanes. “By sharpen-ing existing academic partnerships and creating new ones, we can make sure the school curriculum matches the skill needs of employers. So far, we have partnerships with 29 high schools, skill
centers and community and technical colleges in specific skill areas to ensure new hires are career ready.”
Boeing recruiters also have acceler-ated their efforts at Puget Sound schools with strong aerospace programs. In addition to career fairs, information sessions and factory tours, job offers are now presented more quickly to qual-ified individuals. Once hired, employ-ees participate in a five-day enhanced orientation focused on quality and safety followed by hands-on training with Airplane Programs or Boeing Fabrica-tion. The second wave of more than 30 new hires from high schools and skills centers start the program this month.
“The goal of the Pierce Coun-ty Skills Center is to prepare stu-dents for high-wage, high-demand careers,” said Michelle Ledbetter, director, Pierce County Skills Center in Washington state. “Our aerospace manufacturing students are excited about the opportunity to start their ca-reers in manufacturing at Boeing. These are viable, well-paying jobs with great opportunities for professional develop-ment and advancement.”
Shevchuk echoed that senti-ment. “I’m looking forward to starting my Boeing career and taking on some new challenges. And, at some point, pursue a college degree on the company.”
Earlier this year Ray Conner, Commercial Airplanes president and CEO, spoke to more than 50 community college and high school educators about working together to build the future manufacturing workforce in the Puget Sound region.

Boeing taps into high school talent for manufacturing jobs
t’s a video message they will likely nev-er forget. Teenagers involved in more
than half-a-dozen, youth-focused orga-nizations in Washington state learned through a short video message that they’re among the recipients selected to join the Legion of Youth Powered by Boeing this year. The Legion of Youth is a unique community program created in 2014 to provide tickets to the National Football League’s Seattle Seahawks home games to community organiza-tions that serve young people through-out the U.S. Pacific Northwest.
The news was delivered in a video featuring Pete Carroll, Seahawks head coach, and Ray Conner, Boeing Com-
mercial Airplanes president and CEO. Empowering local young people is part of Boeing’s long-standing commitment to giving back to the communities where employees live and work.
“Legion of Youth Powered by Boeing is really a special way for us to recognize local students like you who are commit-ted to school, demonstrating leadership, are active in your local communities and are setting a great example for your peers,” Conner said in the video. “That’s why we’re so excited to let you know that the youth-focused organization you are part of has been selected as one of our 2015 Legion of Youth recipients.”
During each of the eight regular sea-son games at CenturyLink Field in Se-
attle, 25 young people each will receive four game tickets and the opportunity to meet a former Seahawks player. They also are given concession vouchers and a Legion of Youth Powered by Boeing sweatshirt while at the game.
“Legion of Youth is an outstanding program that recognizes students who make positive contributions in the class-room and in the community,” Seahawks President Peter McLoughlin said. “We are pleased to partner with Boeing to provide tickets for deserving youth to be among the 12s on game day at Centu-ryLink Field.”
The Seahawks and Boeing select the community groups that receive the tickets.

Boeing makes $15 million investment in STEM learning
oeing Commercial Airplanes Pres-ident and CEO Ray Conner an-
nounced that Boeing is providing $15 million to create the Boeing Academy for STEM (science, technology, engi-neering and math) Learning at the Mu-seum of Flight . An additional $15 million match was announced by the family of the late Bill Boeing Jr., son of the com-pany founder, bringing the total invest-ment in the museum to $30 million.
The academy being created with the company’s investment represents a vigorous, new STEM-focused edu-cation initiative that aims to double the number of students served by the mu-seum’s immersive programs over the next two years — particularly from com-munities under-represented in STEM fields — and connect them to fulfilling, in-demand careers.
Washington state leads the United States in creating STEM-related jobs, but, by 2017, an estimated 45,000 jobs requiring STEM education in Washing-ton will go unfilled because of a lack
of qualified candidates, according to Washington STEM, a nonprofit organi-zation advocating for increased invest-ment in STEM education.
“This academy will help close that gap, and we are confident the Museum of Flight is the perfect partner to help us expand the pipeline of diverse, talented young STEM professionals in Washing-ton and beyond,” Conner said. “Wheth-er they choose aerospace or not, we’re happy to provide the opportunity, ac-cess and education that will enable them to develop their talents and grow their skills.”
The Boeing Academy for STEM Learning at the Museum of Flight will significantly expand STEM opportuni-ties for Washington’s youths, company and museum officials said. The number of students served by the museum’s educational program is expected to double by 2017 and double again by 2019. Additionally, at least half of those students will be young women, stu-dents of color or economically disad-vantaged, which makes it possible for
young people across the spectrum of the community to develop their talents and share in the promise of a better fu-ture, officials said.
“It allows us to reach more kids, al-lows a lot more kids to be involved in programs that we’ve already done and allows us to expand the program dra-matically to reach underserved audi-ences,” said Doug King, CEO of the Museum of Flight, about Boeing’s in-vestment. “What we find in our immer-
sive programs at the high-school level is that two-thirds of those kids end up go-ing into STEM careers, and more than half of those are aerospace related.”
Meanwhile, June Boeing represent-ed her late husband, Bill Boeing Jr., in announcing the $15 million match.
“He cared so deeply about the edu-cational mission of the museum,” she said of her husband. “He would smile most brightly when in the midst of our eager young learners.”
Children toss paper airplanes to celebrate the announcement of the Boeing Academy for STEM Learning at the Museum of Flight near Seattle.

The Greater Trinity Academy’s new bus purchased with grant money from ECF funds. The bus will be used to transport students who are a part of the GTA Before and After School Program to local schools.
EVERETT — The Greater Trinity Academy (GTA) in Everett re-ceived a $40,000 grant to purchase a new bus to transport stu-dents who are a part of their Before and After School Program to local schools. The bus will also be used to transport GTA students to field trips and other educational opportunities in the community. GTA serves underprivileged kids and families that cannot meet the financial demand of providing quality early childhood education.
SKAGIT — A special funding grant of $17,000 was granted to Community Action Agency of Skagit County, the fiscal agent for Skagit Project Homeless Connect (PHC). PHC is an annual, one-day event that brings together, in a single location, a wide vari-ety of volunteers and free services for homeless people. Direct services provided on site include: hot meals; medical and dental care; vision screening and eyeglass vouchers; haircuts; mental health assessments; substance abuse screening and housing referrals. The funds from ECF will cover the costs of the medi-cal screenings, volunteer t-shirts with the ECF logo, intake forms and tent rentals for the service providers.

Mary’s Place increases its reach
Giving Back...Boeing employees are making a significant difference in communities where they live and work. Through the Employees Community Fund (ECF) of Boeing Puget Sound, employees contribute funding for training for veterans, food for seniors, early learning for low-income children – and much more. Last year, more than $9 million in grants were awarded to community non-profits throughout the Puget Sound region. Here are some recent grant recipients.
Grant allows EFP’s food storage capability
to expand
$17,000 grant for homelessKING COUNTY — The Emergency Feeding Program (EFP), located in Renton, was granted $40,000 to purchase new warehouse equipment that will expand its ability to store more food, stock inventory of packaging materials and stage food drives. EFP packs and distributes distinct, ethnically sensitive and nutritionally focused bags of non-perishable foods for those in immediate hunger by collaborating with over 200 dis-tributor partners throughout King County. Last year, EFP and their partners packed and delivered over 20,000 bags of food serving over 45,000 people in the Puget Sound region.
SEATTLE — Mary’s Place Seattle was provided $15,000 by Boeing employees for new refrigerators and freezers at their Day Center for home-less women. Mary’s Place empowers homeless women and children to re-claim their lives by providing shelter, nourishment, resources, healing and hope. The new freezers and refrigera-tors replace inadequate equipment and will help Mary’s Place continue to serve its patrons at the Day Shelter and the Night Shelters, and increase their reach to potentially support addi-tional night shelters.
of smoke.E-liquid consists of liq-
uid nicotine, f lavoring and other chemicals. The potency of liquid nicotine in e-liquid can vary from product to product, and e-liquid without nicotine can also be purchased.
The danger of minors using e-cigarettes is in the potential of addiction to nicotine and the risk of minors, especially young
children, having easy access to a potent poison, according to the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department.
The Health Department cited part of the 2014 Healthy Youth Survey, which studied health pat-terns of middle and high school students through-out Washington.
According to the survey, 23 percent of Washington high school seniors and 18 percent of sophomores
used e-cigarettes 30 days prior to the survey in 2014.
In Pierce County, 20 percent of sophomores and 23 percent of seniors used e-cigarettes in 2014.
Fourteen percent of King County sophomores and 22 percent of seniors used e-cigarettes in 2014.
Although the Healthy Youth Survey started col-lecting data on e-cigarette smoking patterns on mid-dle and high schoolers in 2014 and has no data for previous years, the sur-vey shows e-cigarette use
is consistently equal to, and in most cases higher, than traditional cigarette and smokeless (chewing) tobacco use.
Besides being an addic-tive substance, liquid nicotine is also a potent poison that can not only be inhaled as a vapor, but absorbed through the skin.
The amount of liquid nico-tine in e-liquid varies, but according to Dr. Lee Cantrell, director of the San Diego division of the California Poison Control System, chil-
dren exposed to less than a tablespoon of e-liquid can seriously harm or kill them, he told the New York Times.
The Washington State Poison Center started receiv-ing phone calls related to e-cigarettes and liquid nico-tine in 2010. The Poison Center received two calls that year.
In 2013, the Poison Center received 73 calls, and then 182 calls in 2014.
Sixty percent of the calls made to the Poison Center in 2014 concerned a child between 1 and 3 years old.
Cancer?Whether or not e-ciga-
rettes and e-liquid cause can-cer is a question that is still up in the air.
Unlike the upward of 69 different carcinogens found in cigarettes, nicotine itself has not been shown to be a carcinogen, according to the 2010 Surgeon General’s Report.
However, some studies show e-cigarettes may still release harmful chemicals besides nicotine. Claims have been made that high voltage e-cigarettes release vaporized formaldehyde, a carcinogen also found in traditional cig-arette smoke, but at higher levels than cigarette smoke.

Carbonado to deal with a violation of a court order. Also, officers were told of a theft from a River Avenue location and took a noise complaint from a Couls Avenue address.
OCTOBER 28: Officers executed a search warrant at a Spruce Street location, took a report concern-ing vehicle stolen from a Division Street address and dealt with a pedestrian vio-lation on Ryan Road.
WASHINGTON STATE PATROL
OVERALL: During the week of Oct. 25-31, Enumclaw troopers inves-tigated four collisions, stopped 103 cars, issued 29 tickets, made three arrests for driving under the influ-ence, arrested two for driv-
ing with a suspended license and booked one person who was wanted on a felony war-rant.
IMPAIRED DRIVER: A trooper stopped a vehicle on 424th Avenue Southeast and Southeast 244th Avenue for traveling at 50 mph in a post-ed 35 zone and for an unlaw-ful turn. The trooper found the Enumclaw-area driver to be impaired and arrested her for driving under the influence. The vehicle was impounded and she was taken to the Enumclaw Police Department where she produced a .081 breath result. The incident occurred at 6:26 p.m. Oct. 29.
TWO-CAR CRASH: A trooper investigated a two-car collision that occurred at 6:50 p.m. Oct. 25 at SR 164 at Southeast 400th Street. A westbound vehicle crossed the centerline and struck a vehicle traveling east, caus-ing it to roll onto the shoul-der. The causing driver was
transported to a local hos-pital for precautionary rea-sons. The Spanaway woman also exhibited many signs of impairment and was arrest-ed for driving under the influence. A search warrant for blood was authorized by a judge.
CYCLE PURSUIT: The afternoon of Oct. 24, a trooper attempted to stop two speeding motorcycles traveling eastbound on state Route 410 in Greenwater. One of the motorcycle riders fled from the stop at a high rate of speed and continued east on the highway. The trooper pursued the motor-cycle for five miles at speeds up to 130 mph until the rider realized he had nowhere to go, pulled over and was taken into custody without incident. The motorcycle was impounded and the Renton man was booked at the Pierce County jail for felony eluding of a police officer and driving with a
suspended license.
BONNEY LAKES P E E D I N G ,
PUNCHING: Officers were called to investigate a speed-ing car in a neighborhood on Oct. 12a woman said a car almost hit her husband. After patrolling the neigh-borhood, the driver of the speeding vehicle called offi-cers to report that his truck was punched by the hus-band of the reporting party while the driver was heading home, which left a dent. The husband of the reporting party told officers that hit-ting the car was in response to the car being so close to him, pushing off of it instead of punching it. Additional witnesses told officers the driver was driving recklessly and almost hit the husband. The report was forwarded to the city prosecutor.
FALSE INSURANCE: On Oct. 26, officers were contacted by a woman who
wanted to retrieve her car from impound. She pro-vided her insurance card to officers, who determined it was a fake after calling the insurance services line. Officers told the woman charges would be filed for presenting false insurance. The woman left the depart-ment and returned later with valid insurance.
WARRANT ARREST: Officers were dispatched to arrest a male subject for an outstanding felony war-rant and failing to appear in court. After determining the male’s place of residence, officers knocked on the door and was answered by the father of the subject. At first, the father would not let police in, but officers told him of the laws pertaining to arresting felons and were eventually allowed to come in. Officers outside of the house reported seeing the subject near his bedroom window like he was going
to jump and run. Instead, the subject exited the room and allowed officers to arrest him. The subject was booked into Pierce County Jail.
R E C O V E R E D VEHICLE: On Oct. 30, offi-cers observed a silver van pulling into a grocery store parking lot. Officers ran a check on the vehicles plates, and were advised the vehicle was reported stolen by Pierce County Sheriffs. Officers performed a felony stop with the driver and passenger and arrested them without inci-dent. The driver told offi-cers he had permission from his mother, who owned the car, to drive it. Officers con-firmed this with the mother, who said she called police after she reported the car as stolen to tell police the car was returned to her by her son. Dispatchers also con-firmed this after reviewing records. The driver and pas-senger were released.
BLOTTER FROM 14
The closure schedule was released to the public before it went through a department review pro-cess.
After receiving com-plaints from the public, the schedule was revised with one weekend closure at the end of November, another in December and two in January.
Still, many business owners argued they would lose much-needed business if the bridge was closed at all during the holiday season
Businesses like the Crystal Mountain Resort were especially vocal at the meeting, saying they couldn’t survive anoth-er financial hit like last year, which was the worst ski season on record due to minimal snowfall in the mountains.
Pressure from chamber members for a re-revised schedu le prompted Chambers Director Troy Couch to call Roach and arrange the meeting.
Safety risksWhile the bridge is
completely safe to drive on and its condition is not currently deteriorat-ing, there are still risks to postponing the repairs,
said Travis Phelps, WSDOT communica-tions manager.
One risk to postponing the repairs is there are more potential days when the bridge could sustain damage, Phelps said. Damage risks include the Plateau’s infamous east wind, he said, as strong gusts could potentially damage the bridge.
While the bridge is not being repaired, WSDOT will continue to conduct monthly inspections on the bridge. Phelps said it is unlikely the bridge will be closed during these inspections, but the DOT may have to reduce traf-fic to one lane.
Economic impactPostponing the repairs
also means footing a heftier bill, Phelps said.
Between the costs of sending teams out monthly to inspect the bridge, WSDOT is dis-
cussing how much it will cost to postpone the repairs with the contrac-tor.
In total, the bill may increase somewhere in the ballpark of $200,000 and $250,000 dollars. This cost could be cut if the contractor is allowed to work during the week, Phelps said, instead of having to set up and take down equipment over multiple weekends.
However, a quarter of a million is small change, local business owners said, compared to how much money they would lose if the bridge was closed during the holiday season.
Couch estimated the Plateau business commu-nity stood to lose around $1 million in various rev-enue streams, although he said his estimate was conservative.

tion would be funded through addi-tional property taxes, state match-ing grants and impact fees paid by developers.
Bond boosters have identified needs in three geographic parts of the district.
The ValleyThe valley floor is home to Sumner
High, Sumner Middle School and two elementary schools, Maple Lawn and Daffodil Valley.
Plans call for renovation and expansion of the high school, resulting in a cost of $57 million. Additional science classrooms would be added, as would a com-mons and cafeteria, along with addi-tional seating in the gymnasium. The library, music room and choir room would be moved and there would be upgrades to meet technol-ogy and security needs.
The district has identified $13.5 million for an early-learning center that would be added to the Maple Lawn/Sumner Middle School com-plex. The building would contain classrooms for kindergarten stu-dents and programs for those with special needs.
The HillThe region atop Elhi Hill is
home to Lakeridge Middle School, Crestwood Elementary, Emerald Hills Elementary and Bonney Lake Elementary.
Emerald Hills is the oldest elemen-tary school in the district. Plans call for spending $28 million to update and modernize the facility.
In the SouthThe rapidly-growing region is
served by Bonney Lake High School, Mountain View Middle School and three elementaries – Liberty Ridge, Victor Falls and Donald Eismann.
To meet future demand, the dis-trict wants to build a new elemen-tary school. The district’s share of the cost is pegged at $28 million. Another $15 million is figured for additional classrooms at Mountain View Middle School and $12.1 million is identified for improve-ments to Bonney Lake High. Those improvements would include a per-forming arts center and covering the “home” seating at the adjacent athletic complex.
Throughout the DistrictWith a $6 million price tag, the
district hopes to install turf fields and lighting at various sites around the district, providing year-round availability for students and the community.
An additional $4 has been identi-fied to improve security systems in some of the district’s older buildings.

of the youngest members to be sworn into office on the Enumclaw City Council.
In Black Diamond challeng-er Brian Weber took the City Council Position 4 seat from incumbent Craig Goodwin 666 to 304. Weber took 68 percent to 31 percent for Goodwin. In Position 5, challenger Pat Pepper took 663 votes and 68 percent to incumbent Ron Taylor at 301 and 31 percent.
Goodwin served one term from 2010 to 2013 and did not seek re-election. He was appoint-ed to the council in February when former mayor Dave Gordon resigned after serving about 11 months. Carol Benson was appointed to the mayor’s position, opening up her council seat and the council appointed Goodwin on a 3-1 vote.
This time Goodwin decided to seek re-election.
Taylor was elected in 2011 beating incumbent Leih Mulvihill.

proach. If you’re waiting for something to happen in your life but aren’t taking the steps – or even crawling – toward that goal or vision, you’re not going to get there.
In the last year, I have learned more about myself by getting out of my comfort zone and reaching out for help than I ever would have staying quiet and semi-content.
Last October, I started a job I knew wouldn’t be a “forever” job, but I did it because I also knew it would open a few doors for me and I thought I could contrib-ute to the job in a unique way.
I didn’t know it then, but this seemingly
“in-between” job would shape my dreams and goals for the next decade. Well, that’s what I think it has done. We’ll see in 10 years if that’s truly the case.
My last day at � e Reporter has come and gone as of this publication date. It’s time to move up, take that next step toward my end game goal – the � ve-year dream that’s on my goal board at home.
“Starting a new chapter” just doesn’t seem to cut it. It’s more like part two in a series of only somewhat related events.
Life is messy and seems disjointed most of the time, at least for me. But, I’m excited for this next segment of my life and I can’t wait to see where the rest of my twenties take me.
