� ings have not been easy for Stuart Miller and Kelly Scott lately.

A few months ago, the couple had been living in Florida when they got in their car to drive across the country.

“We needed to get away from a

bad situation,” Miller said.� ey ended up in Washing-

ton, staying with some friends in Renton. But with a newborn baby girl who would o� en wake up and cry at all hours of the night, Miller said they were soon asked to leave. � ey weren’t able to gather their belongings before they le� and so the new family of three found

themselves on the streets of Renton — their car was no longer running — about a week and a half before Christmas. As they were try-ing to � gure out their next steps, employees from Friends of Youth (FOY) found them and brought them to Redmond United Method-ist Church, which was hosting the Eastside Emergency Winter Shelter

(EWS) at the time.

HELP FROM THE COMMUNITYDuring their stay at the shelter,

Miller said a woman at the church told them about Buy Nothing Redmond, a network of three Facebook groups (separated by neighborhoods) that o� er people a

On Jan. 27, Daniel Hag-gart of Redmond pleaded guilty to second-degree murder with a deadly weapon enhancement in the stabbing that killed 17-year-old Cara Neil in July 2014.

The 26-year-old Haggart is now looking to serve between 219 and 319 months in prison, or about 18-26 and a half years. According to Dan Donohoe with the King County Prosecuting Attorney Office, prosecu-tors will recommend 269 months or almost 22 and a half years.

“The victim’s family supports the resolution in the case,” he said.

Donohoe said they will proceed with sentenc-ing later this month. Haggart’s sentencing is scheduled for 1 p.m. on Feb. 19 — one year, seven months and one day after Neil was assaulted — in courtroom W-905 of the King County Courthouse in Seattle. Judge Mary Roberts will be presiding.

Donohoe said it is not uncommon for a case like this to have several months to more than a year pass before a resolu-tion is found. He said it varies from case to case, but sometimes one side or the other will request a continuance.

Donohoe added that

Just because racism is not openly discussed in a commu-nity, does not mean it is nonex-istent in that community.

This was a common sentiment among people who spoke at a demonstration at Redmond City Hall Wednesday afternoon.

The event, organized by the Eastside Race and Leader-ship Coalition (ERLC), was a response to a Redmond business

— From Rags to Riches — being targeted on Jan. 20 when a white suspect delivered Ku Klux Klan-type items to the consignment shop. Owner Leona Coakley-Spring and her son Shane Coakley, who are black, were both in the store at the time of the incident.

Additional demonstrations are planned to be held in Bellevue, Renton, Sammamish, Cascadia College in Bothell and Lake Washington Institute of Tech-nology in Kirkland.

DOMESTIC TERRORISM, SOLVED WITH LOVE

“My life will never be the same,” Coakley told attendees.

He said he had never experi-enced anything like this before and to go through it with his mother made it that much worse.

“This is domestic terrorism,” said Bobby Alexander.

Alexander, a Seattle resident who also addressed the crowd Wednesday, said Coakley-Spring

and Coakley now must enter their store and wonder whether there will be a Klan member waiting for them at their place of business. He also asked the audi-ence what people are supposed to tell their children. Alexander, who is also black, said Coakley-Spring and Coakley are educat-ed. That didn’t save them. They pay their taxes. That didn’t save them, either.

Black people are being pe-nalized for their success and

From email newsletters to social media, the Red-mond Police Department (RPD) uses a number of methods as part of its public outreach efforts to connect with the Red-mond community.

And in the last six months, the department has added one more tool to its communications belt.

Nextdoor is a private social network residents can use to communicate with neighbors on topics ranging from babysitter referrals to suspicious activity in the neighbor-hood.

For RPD, it is just one more way in which police can relay important infor-mation to residents.

Public information officer Becky Range said with about 3,700 people in Redmond on the net-

work, it is just one more way for police to reach people — especially those who do not use Facebook or Twitter, two social networks RPD utilizes to get information out to the community.

Prior to partnering with Nextdoor, Range said RPD spoke with the Seattle Police Depart-ment, who had been using the network for a while.

“It’s a really good crime-watch tool,” she

said.Range describes Next-

door as a mini Facebook for neighborhoods. It can be accessed via the Inter-net at www.nextdoor.com as well as a downloadable app for smart phones and tablets.

She said residents can establish and self-manage their own Nextdoor website, which are based on neighborhoods. These neighborhood boundaries are usually established by

neighborhood leads, who also work to manage the site, Range said.

Each site is differ-ent and just depends on how users in the specific network use it, what they want it to look like and what types of posts to al-low on their site.

“They govern them-selves,” Range said about the neighborhood sites.

This means everything that happens on any given Nextdoor site is based

on the preferences of its users.

“It’s very customizable,” Range said, adding that people can control what types of posts they want to see and not want to see.

People can even deter-mine who they want to see their posts — whether that is their specific neighborhood, or the greater Redmond Next-door community — and

STAFF REPORT

Redmond High School (RHS) staff contacted Redmond Police Depart-ment (RPD) at 11 a.m. on Thursday and reported a threat written on a bath-room wall at the school, according to RPD public information officer Becky Range.

The message referred to something possibly happening today. RPD is investigating the incident.

“Officers have been

coordinating closely with Lake Washington School District (LWSD) staff to investigate this incident. We are also in com-munication with Kirk-land Police Department (KPD), who are investi-gating a similar incident that occurred (Tuesday) at Juanita High School (JHS),” Range said.

RHS and JHS will be closed today due to the threats, according to a LWSD press release. Futures School, located at

JHS, will also be closed. The threats were specific to these schools: there were no threats to other schools in the district and all other schools will be open.

Anyone who has in-formation that may help with the investigation can call RPD at (425) 556-2500.

“The safety of our students and staff is of paramount importance. Out of an abundance of caution, since we cannot

yet determine the cred-ibility of these threats, we have made the difficult decision to close Juanita High School and Red-mond High School on Friday, February 5,” noted Dr. Traci Pierce, superin-tendent.

On Tuesday, a nonspe-cific threat to JHS was discovered in one of the girls bathrooms refer-ring to today. Since that time, district and school administration have been working closely with the

KPD to investigate the credibility of this threat.

Students and staff at both schools will make up the missed school day and an additional day will be added to the school year.

All activities and building use have been cancelled at both schools today. The scheduled Kingco wrestling tourna-ments scheduled for JHS will be rescheduled and relocated. The scheduled diving meet has been moved to the Bellevue

Aquatic Center.Vanisha Nori-Cook,

who initially alerted the Reporter about the RHS threat, said: “Some of our children attend Redmond Middle School (6th-8th graders). Several of these students are unnerved by this untoward event. My children’s stepsister attends RHS. She is like a daughter to me. It is not easy on my nerves. I may keep both my children home (today). I am not sure.”

turn off posts from cer-tain users.

Range said the web-site is accessible only to residents who live within that defined geographical area and members must verify they live within the neighborhood before joining — either by hav-ing a neighborhood lead confirm their residence or by having a verification code sent to their home address to be entered online to complete the process. In addition, information shared on the site is password protected and cannot be accessed by Google or any other search engine.

As an agency, Range said RPD can only post messages on neighbor-

hood sites. They cannot see anything posted by members. Redmond police has used Nextdoor to post information on crime trends, safety alerts and upcoming events and classes. The information RPD posts in Nextdoor is public information and is often posted on the City of Redmond website, www.redmond.gov and the department’s Twitter account (@RedmondWaPD), as well. In addi-tion, the same content is also emailed out to those who have joined RPD’s email subscription list.

The only way RPD would see any neighbor-hood content would be through a direct reply to a post by the agency, Range said.

She added that RPD

does not monitor Next-door at all times and it is not a way for people to request emergency or police services, report

criminal or suspicious activity or file a report. Range said people still should call 911 in the case of an emergency.

Communication takes twoGold stars to Mr. Grubb for his letter to the

editor of Jan. 22 regarding the communication disconnect between Redmond residents and “the powers that be.” In the same Reporter issue, there was an article about residents of Education Hill forming a group who will act as a bridge between the neighborhood and the city.

My best wishes for success go to the Ed Hill group, though communication takes two… and if communication doesn’t begin to happen soon, Redmond becomes a city with No history, No big trees and a “downtown” inaccessible by car in as much as there will be no place to park it!Janice WilkinsonRedmond

Disappointed with Nokomis building demolition

I am compelled to a write a letter to the City Council and the City of Redmond a� er reading about the demolition of the Nokomis build-

ing. I am so upset with the city for completely ignoring the voice of the people, and what that building stood for, and to put up another stupid looking building in its place.

I was born and raised in Redmond and have been here for 84 years. I am so disappointed in the city, I don’t care if I ever go to town.

All the apartment buildings are so ugly and so over abundant. It’s hard to � gure out who is be-hind all the ridiculous planning of the city. I am really sad to see all this happening to our city.Diantha JanusRedmond

From the Web:(� e following comments are from the Red-

mond Reporter’s Facebook page)

MARIJUANA• � e whole country is having marijuana

problems and so is Redmond. But should we open stores just because it is legal and cities around us do so, or should we think this issue

from the best interest of this particular city? What is best for a city that has a growing num-ber of school age kids? How will squeezing in marijuana stores impact the community when more elementary schools are needed?Zhuolin Qian

• Redmond doesn’t need it. � ere are plenty of out of town shops people can drive to. � e to-bacco smoke shops in town are already magnets for loiterers.

� at being said, if the public was guaranteed that people would be kept from hanging around outside, more people would be open to the idea.Je� Shelhamer

FROM RAGS TO RICHESA positive thing we can do out in the commu-

nity that are horri� ed by this is to let this won-derful person/family/store owner know there are more of us who are good than those one or two hateful people out there and through shop-ping at her store and supporting her business and her work to help people in need in Haiti.Anne Wetmore

Washington state is on the cutting edge of mari-juana legalization, and discussion of the topic has created a lot of heat in Redmond. For the Planning Commission and City Council, there are several issues to be considered before the council takes action.

Here are questions I would like answered before the Plan-ning Commission’s recom-mendation comes before the council.

First, what is the current availability of illegal mari-juana in Redmond? � e same people who are selling pot to our kids in our neighbor-hoods today (particularly around schools) are also selling to adults along with other signi� cantly more harmful drugs, and have every incentive to upsell. Can legal marijuana reduce demand in the illicit market by taking away the adult market; reducing the total rewards for drug dealers?

Second, what are we legally allowed to do by the state? Zoning is a local matter, but we should have an accurate and up-to-date map illustrating the state minimum bu� ers and a list of facilities establishing the bu� ers. I have not seen this.

� ird, what happened in cities that have allowed growing, processing and retailing of marijuana? Redmond intentionally delayed consideration of adopting bu� ers to be able to learn from other cit-ies. � e Tech Committee report, produced as part of the Planning Commission process, is devoid of data or studies related to these important ques-tions.

Has crime increased in the vicinity of marijuana businesses? How has tra� c safety been a� ected? Are neighboring businesses su� ering from crime or vandalism?

Fourth, what do Redmond citizens want? � e city has an online poll they say is designed to � nd out, but there are a few problems.

Of course, there are questions of statistical valid-ity. Is it limited to Redmond residents? Does the survey allow only one response per person? How

do we know that the responses are from adults, and what demographic information is gathered?

Redmond voters supported legalizing mari-juana by a margin of 62 percent to 38 percent. Did the online survey ask if people had changed their mind and why?

Unclear and unscienti� c data are worse than no data. We need to make sure the survey is valid before we use it as a guide.

Next, does it make sense to exclude or centralize marijuana uses in particular areas? � e Tech Re-port o� ers several opinions regarding impact with no supporting evidence. For example, the Tech Report recommends concentrating all marijuana retail in about 1 percent of the city area. How will concentrating all retail trade in one small area of Redmond avoid the crime and property degrada-tion that has gone along with concentrating busi-nesses like this elsewhere? If there are supporting studies, we need to see them.

Sixth, when the council considers zoning, we typically look at the demand for products and ser-vices in those uses. I have not seen any data related to the adult demand for recreational and medici-nal marijuana among Redmond residents. Both the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board (WSLCB) and the University of Washington have

gathered data on marijuana businesses. We should use all sources of factual or documented data.

Finally, if we do make zoning changes which create an opportunity for marijuana retail in Red-mond, at what pace should the change take place? � e original allotment for retail in Redmond was two. Subsequently the WSLCB proposed to increase the allotment to four, and is considering further increases. Redmond delayed consideration to gather impacts of experience in other cities. All of that experience is with the original allotments. We need to consider how we allow for future growth in our city.

� e topic is in the good hands of the Planning Commission, but the buck stops with the City Council. When recommendations come to us, I want to see carefully considered responses made on factual information. At the minimum, the is-sues above should be documented with research. On such a highly controversial topic, we need to move beyond personal opinion if we are to achieve a result that is legally defensible, honors the wishes of the community and protects our kids.

way to give, receive, share and lend goods and services with their neighbors.

� is single piece of infor-mation has helped Miller and Scott work toward turning their life around and getting back on their feet.

Miller, who is originally from Salem, Ore., initially posted on the page, letting people know they were in need of a stroller they could attach to their daughter’s carseat. � ey received more than 30 o� ers and once they accepted one stroller, they were o� ered a second one to use to put their be-longings in for convenience. � ey accepted a second stroller but shortly gave it to another family who came into EWS, had even less than them and were also in need of a stroller. Miller made sure to post a mes-sage on the Facebook page

to let people know what had happened.

“We wanted to share (the stroller) with someone who needed it,” he said.

Since then, the Buy Nothing group has been a lifeline for the couple, pro-viding them with whatever they need — from cans of baby formula for their daughter Hailly, to enough le� overs to feed them and dozens of homeless people congregated at the Red-mond Library during the day.

And while provid-ing food was helpful, the

couple was still staying at EWS, which was only open from 8:30 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. Miller said because of the limited hours, he and his family were still out on the streets during the day and Hailly would be con� ned to her stroller, o� en under a plastic cover because of the rain. � is caused them some concern regarding her development because she couldn’t come out of the stroller to play and practice rolling over and other things babies do at her age.

A HOME OF THEIR OWN� is need for their own

place to live became appar-ent to Redmond resident Denise Whitlow, who invited the family to spend Christmas with her and her friends a� er meeting them through the Buy Nothing group. She learned Miller wanted to get an RV so his family would have their own place to live.

To help them get that RV, Whitlow started a GoFundMe page to collect donations (www.gofundme.com/kthbkwta).

Within a few days, the site raised enough money for them to purchase an RV in Fife for about $900.

� is was at the beginning of January. � e crowdsourcing site is still up and accepting donations as the family still needs help.

Scott, who is from Tal-lahassee, Fla., said now they have a roof over their heads, a bed and bathroom of their own.

In addition, the family now has a place to put their belongings — the majority of which were donated by members of the Buy Noth-ing group. Prior to having the RV, Miller and Scott were not able to accept many items because they were carrying everything

they owned with them.“It’s been rough, but we

got through it,” Scott said about their experiences so far.

� e couple is especially grateful to have the RV because there were a few moments when they were on the street when they thought it would only be a matter of days that the state would take away their daughter. It was just a mat-ter of when, not if, Miller said.

“My daughter has a home now,” he said through tears as the topic is still an emo-tional one for him.

At four months old, Hailly has come through things well.

“She is the world’s happi-est baby,” Miller said.

LOOKING OUT FOR EACH OTHER

Miller, Scott and Hailly are now out of the shelter and their RV is in the back parking lot behind Over-take Christian Church, where about a dozen fami-lies are staying as they work to get back on their feet.

� ere are cameras moni-toring the lot and police come by on a regular basis

victimized for looking different from the major-ity of those living in their community, Alexander said.

“We already know that we stand out,” he said, adding, “This problem is not going to be solved with education. This problem is going to be solved with love.”

ERLC member James Whitfield agreed. He noted that civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. described racists as people who are ill and need to heal.

“Love was the way to respond,” said Whitfield.

As a black man, he said he felt a “whole range of emotions” when he learned about what happened at From Rags to Riches. Among the disgust and rage over the incident as well as the compassion for Coakley-Spring and her son,

Whitfield said his heart hurt for the man who chose to express himself this way — to demon-strate his hurt in this way. He said being angry at the perpetrator will not heal the hurt; it fuels it.

EQUIT Y ON THE EASTSIDEAlthough he and his

mother were deeply af-fected by the incident, Coakley said he does not believe last month’s events are a reflection of Redmond, a community where they have always felt a part of and wel-comed.

Wednesday’s event at Redmond City Hall was an effort by ERLC to emphasize this — to create a more inclusive community where all are welcomed.

Whitfield said the mis-sion of ERLC is to bring together stakeholders in-terested in diversity work to empower and support

emerging and current leaders to eliminate rac-ism and increase equity on the Eastside.

Whitfield, who cur-rently serves as the president and CEO of Leadership Eastside, said members join ERLC as individuals, not as representatives of their respective agencies or organizations.

Part of ERLC’s work means openly discuss-ing racism and starting a dialogue, which speakers on Wednesday acknowl-edged is not always easy.

“The more you have (discussions on racism), the easier it becomes,” said Redmond resident and ERLC spokesperson Mariama Suwaneh.

She said while Red-mond is a great place to live, there is still racism here. Suwaneh cited her senior year of high school when she was accepted into several colleges and universities. As some-

one with a mixed black and Mexican American background, she said people would dismiss her achievements and insist she got into those schools for other reasons than hard work.

Redmond Mayor John Marchione, who spoke at the event, said since the incident at Coakley-Spring’s store last month, the phrase “This is not Redmond” has been repeated over and over by community members.

He said this is not cor-rect.

Marchione — along with a number of other speakers — said racism in Redmond and the greater Pacific Northwest may manifest in smaller, subtler incidents such as what happened to Suwaneh, but they are still evidence that there is racism here. He said this actually makes it harder to address the issue be-cause subtler occurrences

are easier to dismiss and deny as racism. He said by doing this, people are patronizing those af-fected and perpetuating the problem.

“You can’t solve a prob-lem unless you acknowl-edge it exists,” Marchione noted.

A COMMUNIT Y COMMITMENT

On Wednesday, he invited community members to speak up and identify actions they can take to address and end racism.

This commitment was illustrated by an art ex-hibition created by ERLC titled, “Rejecting the Rags of Racism and Living into the Riches of Diversity.” The exhibition’s title is an acknowledgement of what happened at Coakley-Spring’s store last month.

Attendees were invited to take part by writing

specific, personal ac-tion steps they commit to taking on a piece of colored fabric and con-necting that commitment to others’ on an archway — a recognized symbol of peace in the Pacific Northwest that invites all to pass through from one state of being to another.

The arch will be on display at Redmond City Hall and then moved to Bellevue City Hall and other Eastside cities throughout February, which is also Black His-tory Month.

Coakley-Spring was at a loss of words Wednes-day afternoon at seeing such a strong response to what happened to her and her business. Seeing the community come out to support her and her family and show them they want them in Red-mond and love them has left her speechless.

“It’s overwhelming,” she said. “In a good way.”

[ RACISM from page 1]

Haggart’s case was scheduled to go to trial on Monday before Hag-gart’s guilty plea last week.

After multiple at-tempts this week, the Reporter was unable to reach Haggart’s defense attorney.

Neil’s death was the result of a fight between her and Haggart, which took place on July 18, 2014, outside of Soul-food Coffeehouse at 15748 Redmond Way in downtown. As previ-ously reported, she had been defending her friend — Haggart’s girl-friend Jennifer Fox — to Haggart, which upset him. Prior to the con-frontation, he had been sending Fox text mes-sages, threatening to kill the first person he saw if she did not come see him, reports state. Neil, who was a Redmond resident, sustained mul-tiple stab wounds to the

chest. She died on July 23, 2014.

In a previous report, Neil was described as someone who put on a tough front but genu-inely cared about others — caring was even part of her name. She was also seen as a regular fixture at Soulfood. Following Neil’s death, Soulfood held an event to celebrate her life, the report states. The event was attended by more than 100 people — both those who knew her and those who didn’t know her personally.

Since her death, a me-morial page was started on Facebook to honor Neil. On the Cara Neil Memorial Page, people have expressed their memories of Neil as well as how much they love and miss her.

“I think it was unique how she carried her-self,” one person posted about Neil. “I’ve met tons of people and in all this time I only met

one other person who was that loyal to friends, psychologically strong, and liked. She represent-ed the good that some of us are afraid to show the world.”

Another individual posted how they were recently going through a difficult time and called to talk to Neil about the situation for her advice before realizing what they had done.

“But then as (I) sat there listening to the phone ring I (remem-bered) you wouldn’t answer,” the post reads. “And it felt like a thou-sands of bricks hit me all at once. I miss you Cara I hope you can hear me when I pray.”

In addition, Neil’s family had her organs donated, including her heart, which surgeons were able to repair and harvest for a recipient, despite the fact that it had been damaged from the stabbing, a previous report states.

[ NEIL from page 1] to make sure everyone is safe.

In addition, everyone looks out for everyone else.

Whitlow, who visits with the family on a regular basis, said there is a sense of community among people staying there.

Miller and Scott agreed.People share what they can with each

other, whether that is tools, the use of their car to run errands during the day, cooking food or the use of a laptop to watch TV shows. Everyone also looks out for each other, keeping an eye on others’ belongings when they are not there.

Miller said it is hard enough to be in the position they are in at the moment and to try to get through things alone “ain’t going to happen.”

“It takes a whole tribe to get a family off the street,” he said.

So in addition to sharing their belong-ings, Miller said the families also share information on resources and services. He said they know that just because one agency may not be able to help them, there may be someone else the agency could help.

Another way in which Miller is contributing to the small community behind the church is by starting a small garden in a plot of dirt in the lot so the people staying there in the future will

have fresh produce to eat.

SOMEBODY WHO HAS BEEN THEREAlthough Miller was raised to al-

ways try to help others, it wasn’t until his family’s experiences in the last few months that he has really found the mo-tivation to do more than volunteering with the Salvation Army.

Miller now realizes how difficult it is for someone to try to get their life back together after falling on hard times.

Although things are not perfect for his family yet — he has been unable to work due to mental health issues and they are still waiting to receive his disability benefits — this has not stopped Miller from reaching out to others.

Whitlow said he is often running around town, helping other people in similar situations to find services and other help.

For Miller, his role is obvious. As someone who is working to come out from a tough situation, he said he can help reassure newly homeless parents. In addition to showing them where they can receive the services they need, he can also let them know that their chil-dren will not be taken away from them just because they have lost their home — something he would never wish upon any parent.

“There’s a real need for somebody who’s been through it,” he said.

Despite having been stored in a “morgue,” past issues of Redmond’s origi-nal hometown newspaper, the Sammamish Valley News — a precursor to the Redmond Reporter — serve as a living history of the city.

Jeanne Gustafson, editor of the Redmond Historical Society newsletter, takes a trip back through time via the pages of Redmond’s 30-year newspaper, exploring what the paper can continue to illumi-nate through images and stories of the town and the people who recorded it. She will speak at 10:30

a.m. Feb. 13 as part of the Redmond Historical Society Saturday Speaker Series at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center, located at 16600

N.E. 80th St. Founded in 1946 by

Bob Bailie, the Sam-mamish Valley News was Redmond’s community newspaper until 1997.

Held within its pages are unique insights into the city’s politics and people, from weekly social pages to thousands of photos of residents in their daily lives. Sometimes humor-ous, sometimes critically important, the informa-tion found in the “SVN” expands the understand-ing of the city. Even the paper’s advertisements open a window into the businesses, products, and events that shaped and re� ect the city’s develop-ment.

“You learn so much about what was impor-tant to a community,

and how its growth was shaped, through the lens of reporters who lived, worked and participated in the events as they hap-pened,” says Gustafson, a longtime journalist who has combed through the pages of the paper for ex-amples that will detail the importance of the paper as historical record.

� e Sammamish Valley News also served as a launch pad for journalists who have gone on to take the national stage and win Pulitzer prizes for their work.

� e Saturday Speaker Series is a monthly

program presented by the Redmond Historical Society on every second Saturday from September through May (no program in December). Topics range from local, state and Paci� c Northwest his-torical interest. � ere is a suggested $5 donation for non-members.

� e Redmond Histori-cal Society is a 501(c)(3) nonpro� t organization that receives support from the City of Redmond, 4 Culture, Nintendo, the Bellevue Collection, and Happy Valley Grange as well as from other donors and members.

CITY TO SOON BEGIN BUDGETING PROCESS

Every even year, the city recruits a budget team of community members

Redmond’s Budgeting by Priorities (BP) process instituted in 2008.

This process was used to develop the city’s last four biennial budgets

including setting performance measures for the government services

provided. BP has moved the focus of Redmond’s budget activities from one

of evaluating budget increments to focusing on programs most valued by

residents.The city will soon begin the process

again for the 2017-18 biennial

budget and needs members of the community to volunteer for the

Civic Results Team. This team will evaluate programs under the city’s six priorities, developed by citizens

in 2008: Business Vitality, Clean and Green Environment, Community

Building, Infrastructure and Growth, Responsible Government and Safety.

Following initial training, Civic Results Team members will work as a team

to prioritize city budget programs based on their likelihood to contribute

towards the priority and the city’s vision. They will then recommend

to the mayor programs and funding levels that should be considered for

inclusion in the preliminary budget.Interested Redmond residents or those who work in Redmond are encouraged to apply by sending a letter of interest to Mayor John

Marchione at [email protected]. Volunteer requirements include the � exibility to meet with city sta� for

two hours in the evening and the ability to devote up to 35 working

hours over a period of 11 weeks between April and July.

Letters of interest will be accepted for consideration until Feb. 29.

For more information about these volunteer positions or the BP process,

contact the mayor’s o� ce at (425)

556-2101 or [email protected].

CITY SEEKING INPUT ON BICYCLE STRATEGIC PLAN

The City of Redmond is seeking community input on the Bicycle

Strategic Plan, determining which bicycle improvements to build in the

next 6-10 years.City sta� and a consultant team will

host an open house from 5-7:30 p.m. Monday at Redmond City Hall

(15670 N.E. 85th St.), with a brief introductory presentation at 5 p.m. and another at 6:30 p.m. The 6-10

year investment horizon will help the city implement bicycle infrastructure

more strategically than the current system that identi� es investments

every two years and does not consider previous investments.

“We look forward to having community members help shape the locations and types of bicycle

infrastructure that the city will build in the medium term,” said Peter Dane,

project manager.Everyone is invited and RSVPs are

encouraged by emailing [email protected].

The project team will take input from the open house to help generate

at least two investment scenarios — each with di� erent investment

levels and projects. These preliminary scenarios will be presented at a second open house (date to be

determined) to gather additional community feedback.

“Bicycling is an important component of the transportation system and helps provide travel choices,” said

Mayor John Marchione. “The Bicycle Strategic Plan will help provide a

logical bicycle network with facilities that encourage more residents and

employees to live, work, and play by bicycle.”

Redmond realtor Mueller receives Young Professionals Achievement Award

Twelve individuals, including 10 members of Seattle King County REAL-TORS (SKCR), recently shared the spotlight for special achievements at an association event. The occa-sion also featured the instal-lation of the organization’s 2016 leaders and fundraising for a scholarship program to support outstanding com-munity service volunteers.

The annual event drew more than 200 participants, including members, af-filiates and guests of SKCR, its Young Professionals Network (YPN) and the Women’s Council of REAL-TORS.

The Young Professionals Achievement Award went to Jenn Mueller from John L. Scott Real Estate and Northwest Dream Team in Redmond. This award, formerly known as the “One to Watch,” is presented to a realtor who exemplifies growth and opportunity for the next generation of realtor leaders.

Mueller began her career in real estate in 2007 and is the 2016 chair of SKCR’s Young Professionals Net-work. She will also serve on the association’s board as the elected YPN director. In

addition to involvement in various realtor activities, she supports various nonprofits as a volunteer and donor. Mueller is a home acquisi-tion and buyer specialist, and in 2014, REALTOR Magazine included her on its “30 under 30” list, which recognizes young profes-sionals who exemplify “the ingenuity, dedication, and prowess that’s raising the bar in real estate today.”

As part of the evening’s festivities, banquet attendees participated in fundraising activities to support the Seat-tle First Citizen Scholarship Foundation. Approximately $6,500 was raised through a 50/50 raffle, dessert auction and flight simulator ticket

sales, which are awarded in part for good citizenship and community involvement.

The Overlake School readies for second summer program launch

choices include everything from a full-fledged musi-cal production to a makers workshop, sports camps and cooking classes. Flexible scheduling enables families to select just morning or afternoon classes or a full-day program. There’s also extended care available until 5:30 p.m.

The high school offer-ings include an accelerated geometry class and ACT/SAT prep courses.

This year there is an early bird registration, offering savings to families who book before March 1.

data science expertise or experience. Traditional lead score offerings are based on simplistic rules-based models. Versium’s auto-mated Predictive Lead Score service leverages machine learning and big data with the inclusion of thousands of LifeData attributes.

“Machine learning is an evolutionary step from tradi-tional ‘rules-based’ predic-tive models. By automating this process, we are provid-ing marketing agencies and enterprises a tremendous competitive advantage in the growing field of predic-tive marketing,” said Chris Matty, founder and CEO of Versium.

Local basketball legend Wilkens to headline 2016 Invest in Youth Breakfast

Growing up in Brooklyn, N.Y., Lenny Wilkens felt looked down upon when his struggling single mother took him and his siblings to free health care clinics.

“I never forgot that,” Wilkens told Forbes maga-zine in February 2015.

On March 24, the bas-ketball legend will address nearly 1,000 community leaders and youth advocates at Youth Eastside Services’ (YES) annual Invest in Youth Breakfast. The event will be held from 7:30-8:45 a.m. at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue.

Wilkens, who rose to local fame as a player and coach for the Seattle SuperSon-ics, has been inducted into the Naismith Memo-rial Basketball Hall of Fame three times. Off the court, he’s made accessible, quality health care for children and families his top priority: The Lenny Wilkens Founda-tion has raised more than $8 million for the Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic, a community clinic of Seattle Children’s Hospital, as well as other services and pro-grams in the Northwest.

Brad and Danielle Tilden will serve as community co-chairs for the event. Brad is the chairman and chief executive officer of Alaska Air Group and its two sub-sidiaries, Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air. Danielle is the owner of Capitol Hill’s Sta-tion 7 boutique; her career working in youth-serving organizations spans over 25 years. Local news veteran Steve Raible will emcee.

Every year, youth who have been helped by YES speak at the event. Last year’s breakfast inspired donors to contribute more than $700,000 to help Eastside families overcome trauma, depression, substance abuse and other emotional struggles — as well as fund education and prevention services.

For more information on attending, sponsoring or vol-unteering at the Breakfast, call (425) 586-2326 or visit http://bit.ly/2016breakfast.

Redmond City Council President Hank Mar-geson has been elected to the 2016 board of directors of the Sound City Association (SCA), which represents 36 cit-ies in King County, and provides a regional voice for nearly one million people. This is council member Margeson’s first term on the 13-mem-ber SCA Board.

“We are ex-cited that council member Margeson has been elect-ed to the board and will serve as a representative from the North Caucus,” said SCA Executive Di-rector Deanna Dawson. “His participation will help in our efforts to the build long-term com-munity and economic prosperity for our region and state.”

Dawson noted that Margeson continues Red-mond’s representation on the SCA board. Mayor John Marchione is leav-ing the board and also served as SCA president.

SCA provides a voice for King County cities through leadership in ar-eas such as economic and community development, transportation, land use, health, government oper-ations, the environment, education, public safety, social welfare and other public policy issues.

Margeson has served on Redmond’s City Council since November 2007 and is now serv-ing his second term. He represents the city at the SCA Public Issues Committee. He was also appointed to the Puget Sound Regional Com-mittee’s Growth Manage-ment Planning board, serving as the SCA cau-cus chair and the King County Regional Policy Committee. Prior to elec-tion to City Council, he served on the Parks and Trails Commission and was the vice chairperson for the Education Hill Citizens Advisory Com-mittee.

Redmond skater lands fourth place at America’s Cup

Redmond’s Natasha Kacharia, a freshman at � e Overlake School, landed fourth place in the cadet U-15 event at America’s Cup, an international roller artistic � gure skat-ing competition between North American and South American countries held Jan. 15-18 in Orlando, Fla. She took seventh in the junior U-18 event.

She has been skating for the last seven years and

is the US Nationals gold medalist.

“� e competition was very tough. Girls from Brazil were quite good. I am very happy that I got fourth place,” said Kacharia, 15, who narrowly missed third place by 0.3 points.

Kacharia skates around 15 hours a week, and a� er school she goes to skate and comes back home at 7 p.m. She then � nishes her homework and o� en stays up late if there is a test.

“It is worth it. I love skat-ing. Skating has taught me time management, patience and hard work,” she said.

GIRLS UNLIMITED: ‘SPEAK UP AND BE HEARD!’ AT TOMORROW’S EVENT

� e City of Redmond’s Youth Partnership Advi-sory Board (RYPAC) is sponsoring its sixth confer-ence for girls interested in learning and sharing how their voice can be heard.

“Speak Up and Be Heard!” is for high school-age girls only and will take place from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. tomorrow at

Redmond City Hall, 15670 N.E. 80th St.

� e conference features local women profession-als from Puget Sound Energy, Pat Graney Dance, Washington State Supreme Court and KIRO TV, as well as Redmond City Council member Kim Allen. Speakers will share their stories about their experience as females in leadership roles and how their voices are heard. � e cost is $10, which includes

lunch. To register, go to www.redmond.gov/register and enter course #58056.

Attendees have called this event “inspiring” and have noted, “how great it was to hear how they failed and learned from their mistakes and how they bal-anced what they did with what they love.”

CRAFT BEER, COMEDY: THE PERFECT PAIRING

Hi-Fi Brewing is now o� ering the perfect pairing

for their Hi-Fidelity beers: comedy. Hi-Fidelity Funny is hosted by Seattle come-dian Cris Rodriguez, who is featured on Sirius/XM radio and at comedy shows across Washington.

Tony Daniel will head-line the next show, set for 8 p.m. Feb. 20 at 14950 N.E. 95th St., Redmond. Manny Martin will also perform. � e show has sold out every month so far; $10 advance tickets are available online at http://

bpt.me/2492439 and in the taproom.

Growing up in rural North Carolina, Daniel learned that the line be-tween tragedy and comedy is blurred at best. As a barefoot youth, he found that the best remedy for a stubbed toe was a quick wit and a hearty laugh. A US Navy veteran, Daniel takes pride in performing for the armed forces. He has opened for � e Fabulous � underbirds, Dave Attell,

Patrice O’Neal, and Alonzo Bodden. His material can regularly be heard on Sirius Radio’s � e Jamie Foxx show.

Martin, known for his high energy, silliness and likeability, has opened for some of the top comedians in the country. He hosts the weekly Comic Search open mic at � e Parlor Live comedy club in Bel-levue and performs weekly all over the Seattle area.

BECOME A LINKS VOLUNTEER TODAY AT LWSD SCHOOLS

Submitted by Lake Washington School District

One hour per week can impact a student’s ability to achieve

success in schoolOne person. One hour per week.

That’s all that it took to give one fourth-grade student

in Lake Washington School District (LWSD) the confidence to believe in herself. With that

confidence came improved grades.

“My lunch buddy made my life happier by giving me things

I always wanted,” said the fourth-grade student. “She comforts me when I doubt

myself. She is a good friend. She makes me believe in

myself to do the homework. My grades have gone up a bit

since having a lunch buddy. I think everybody should

have a lunch buddy because it is good to have a lot of

friendship.”Do you have an hour a week to spare? There are currently

28 LWSD students waiting to be matched with a lunch

buddy. That means 28 students have been identified

as needing an adult mentor in their lives. Can you be that

mentor?LWSD’s LINKS Volunteer

program is seeking volunteers to help students achieve

success in school. You can share the gift of your time in the

following ways:Be a lunch buddy: LINKS lunch

buddies are matched with a student and meet with them

one day each week during the student’s lunch hour.

Volunteers bring their own lunch and meet the student in

a designated area. Most schools have fun games the volunteer

and student can play together. Many lunch buddies report

that it is the best hour of their week.

Be an academic mentor: Academic mentors are carefully

matched with a student at the

elementary, middle or high school level. This volunteer

opportunity takes place during the school day or on site after

school. The timeframe can vary from 30 minutes to an

hour. Core classes are often the subjects students need extra help with and include math,

reading, writing, and science. Be a classroom helper:

Classroom helpers usually help several students each week.

Volunteer opportunities vary depending on the needs of the

students. The most common subject areas include reading,

writing, math and science. Volunteers work closely with

school staff to determine how their personal strengths can

best be used in the classroom

to benefit students.Be a tutor: Tutoring provides

academic support to a student or a group of students, typically

focusing on one subject such as reading or math. Some

tutoring options take place in a classroom or during an

after school study program in an assigned area at a school. Make a difference in a school

near you by becoming a LINKS volunteer!

To learn more about LINKS volunteer opportunities, visit

the LINKS page on the LWSD website, www.lwsd.org. To

register for an upcoming volunteer orientation, email

Nanci Wehr at [email protected] or call (425) 936-1410.

Lake Washington School District (LWSD) is seeking potential authors for the voter’s pamphlet statements opposing the Lake Wash-ington School District bond measure that will appear on the April 26 ballot.

Election regulations require LWSD to solicit members to “pro” and “con” committees who want to write statements for the local voters’ pamphlet. Since there is an organized promotional campaign committee, the Lake Washington Citizens Levy Committee, the district has asked that organization to name the three individuals who will serve on the “pro” committee.

The district is solicit-

ing members for the “con” committee for the voter’s pamphlet. If you would like the district to consider you for appointment to the committee that will be asked to write a state-ment in opposition, please email your name, mailing address, phone number, and email address to Diane Jenkins, [email protected], no later than Feb. 15.

The district expects the school board will take final action to name the com-mittees officially, assuming volunteers step forward, on Feb. 22.

Complete information on the bond measure, includ-ing all projects, is available on the district website at www.lwsd.org.
