At 4 a.m. Monday, the Redmond Police Department (RPD) responded to a report of a stabbing in a residential neighborhood on Education Hill.

� e 66-year-old man was reportedly stabbed multiple times in the neck by his wife. He was able to exit the house and contact a neighbor who noti� ed police. � e man was transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. He was in and out of surgery by 10:25 a.m. Monday and is currently in the intensive care unit and in stable condition, according to RPD.

Police surrounded the resi-

dence and made attempts to contact his wife, a 54-year-old woman, who was still believed to be in the house. She did not respond. Redmond o� cers breached the residence and located her in a second � oor bedroom. She was in and out of consciousness with multiple knife wounds.

� e woman was also transported to Harborview. As of Wednesday a� ernoon, she was still at the hospital in stable condition and in cus-tody with charges pending, according to RPD.

� ere was no one else in the residence.

� ere is a history of domes-tic violence between the two.

Redmond detectives are continuing to investigate.

Redmond police arrested a 30-year-old Seattle man suspected of four burglaries Monday morning in a strip mall in the 16600 block of Redmond Way downtown.

According to crime pre-vention o� cer Mike Dowd, o� cers were dispatched to the area at 1:26 a.m. a� er re-ceiving a citizen’s call of four broken storefront windows. � e citizen also reported that blood was present near the businesses, which didn’t have alarms sounding.

Four o� cers, including the K9 unit, initially searched the area to no avail. One o� cer ventured a few blocks away

to the park and ride at the intersection of 161st Avenue Northeast and Northeast 83rd Street and found the suspect sitting on a bench at 2:10 a.m. Dowd said the suspect was bloodied from apparently punching the storefront windows and pos-sessed property that o� cers believe came from the busi-nesses, such as money and other items.

� e suspect was arrested and taken to the Redmond Police Department’s booking facility.

“Excellent work by night-shi� o� cers and an obser-vant citizen,” Dowd said.

Police are waiting for videos from the businesses to continue their investigation.

For 39 years, the Redmond Saturday Market (RSM) has been providing the com-munity with local produce, goods, cra� s and more.

Nearly 30 of those years have been spent at the market’s current location at 7730 Leary Way downtown. When this year’s market opens on Saturday, it will be no di� erent. But the same may not be said for the future. With Redmond Town Center (RTC) under new management, there is the possibility of the RSM either moving to the

town center’s Center Court or leaving the town center property altogether.

RSM President Pete Godwin said there are a lot of unknowns about the situation at the moment, but one of their concerns about moving to the middle of the town center is the market losing its autonomy and the ability to decide what can and cannot be sold. Currently, everything sold at the RSM must be grown, made and manufactured in Washington.

Courtney Klein with JSH Properties, Inc., the company that owns RTC, acknowledged RSM organizers’ need for this.

Changes may be on the horizon for Redmond Saturday Market

Submitted by the City of Redmond

Redmond revelers of all ages are invited to participate in a festive springtime confec-tion on Saturday.

Redmond’s first-ever Community Cake Picnic will give attendees the chance to showcase some fancy footwork while dancing around the Maypole with the Rabbits of Spring or join their friends and neighbors for the Promenade of the Golden Eggs. “Recipe for Love,” presented by the City of Redmond and Seattle-based artist Lucia Neare, will offer attendees a bevy of

springtime delights designed to entertain the senses.

“Recipe for Love” activi-ties get under way at 4 p.m.

tomorrow on City Hall’s Great Lawn at 15670 N.E. 85th St.

“Fantastical, whimsical, evoca-tive — these are just a few words bubbling to the surface from those involved with the project,” said Joshua Heim,

Redmond’s arts administra-tor. “The inspiration for the event was sparked by a desire to break from tradition and attempt something a bit more artistically bold in the spirit

of springtime. We wanted to create something fresh that would encourage the idea of a community celebrating together.”

Enter Neare, Redmond’s artist in residence and the project’s creative engine.

“She is a rare, thoughtful artist who has figured out how to beautifully bring clas-sical artistry and community together — and do both well,” said Heim. “That’s not an easy thing to do, but she has a strong vision and voice.”

For Neare, it’s all about assembling an immersive multi-sensory artistic experi-ence – not just a spectator event.

“I wanted to create something that is inclusive, celebratory — an event that allows participants to be swept into the action and become part of the show,” she said. “I’m really interested, as an artist, in fostering connec-tions to the public sphere and cultivating creative possibility in Redmond. To me, that’s what resonates.”

Neare recently received the

Doris Duke Impact Award. She is one of 20 artists select-ed and is the only recipient from the Northwest.

She is recognized for her large-scale, site-specific performances. According to her website, “This first-ever award from the foundation recognizes talented artists in the fields of contempo-rary dance, jazz, theater and related interdisciplinary

work, who have yet to receive significant national recogni-tion for their work, but who show great promise.”

This type of engagement echoes Redmond Mayor John Marchione’s desire to cultivate impactful opportu-nities for citywide commu-nity interaction.

“’Recipe for Love’ repre-sents a bold stride forward in cultivating and building our city’s arts and culture,” he said. “It’s also a unique, family friendly opportunity for the public to celebrate, together, the spirit of community.”

City’s ‘Recipe for Love’ event is set for tomorrow

Thor Andrews Jr. of Redmond pleaded guilty on Monday to three counts of second-degree identity theft, two counts of second-degree ve-hicle prowl, one count of second-degree burglary and one count of pos-session of stolen mail in King County Superior Court in Seattle.

According to court documents, the prosecut-ing attorneys’ recom-mendation states that the 18-year-old Education Hill resident won’t have to serve about three and

a half years in prison for the crimes he committed if he completes a Resi-dential Drug Offender Sentencing Alternative Program (DOSA). An-drews needs to complete the program successfully to stay out of prison.

Court documents state that Andrews admitted to “committing crimes at an alarming rate due to a severe addiction to heroin and opiates.”

Andrews’ sentencing case is scheduled for 1:45 p.m. on May 9 before judge Helen Halpert in the Seattle courthouse.

On Jan. 9, Andrews pleaded not guilty in

court to the crimes he now admits to commit-ting.

He was arrested on Dec. 28, 2013 for steal-ing an iPhone and wallet from a vendor’s truck in downtown Redmond. The Redmond Police Depart-ment’s Pro-Act Unit — which investigates auto theft and related crimes such as vehicle prowls, possession of stolen prop-erty and identity theft — had been monitoring An-drews for several months in 2013 for vehicle prowls in the area and tied him to about 50 vehicle-prowl cases and 100 mail-theft cases in Redmond.

Andrews pleads guilty to multiple crimes, including identity theft, vehicle prowls

Support Sen. Andy HillIt is a pity Matt Isenhower does

not run for Rep. Larry Springer’s or Rep. Roger Goodman’s seat. � en we would have two � scally focused, pro student-funding advocates, as opposed to those who want to in-crease taxes for the very expensive bloated bureaucracy that character-izes the Lake Washington School District.

Sen. Andy Hill worked to get a $1 billion budget with strong sup-port for education and a balanced budget and no tax increases.

Let’s consider the consensus that Hill made with his Democratic colleagues for a 89 percent vote to pass the budget. A budget that Hill worked so hard to move forward with great support for essential school services and without tax increases.

If Mr. Isenhower wishes to help the schools, he could work to trim the excessive bureaucracy, the wasteful and very expensive pro-gram of tearing down good solid

buildings for overpriced replace-ments, and focus the money on education and a solid future for the students.

Oh, but wait, Mr. Isenhower is thrilled to be selected by the Washington Education Association (WEA) as their candidate.

So the WEA’s power grabs at the expense of the teachers and chil-dren happens again.

A few facts to back my asser-tions up from Josh Amato at Shi� Washington.

� e WEA exerted its consider-able in� uence over Democrat lawmakers in Olympia to withhold $40 million per year in federal edu-cation funding for needy children because it didn’t want to take a teachers test seriously.

� e WEA persuaded Sen. Rose-mary McAuli� e, ranking member of the Early Learning and K-12 Education Committee, to vote against her own bill that would keep $40 million in federal funds for Washington state schools by making a simple adjustment to state

law. Once again, all because the WEA didn’t want to take a simple test seriously.

� e WEA refuses to drop its law-suit against charter schools despite the fact that those charter schools exist to provide a stable educational environment to homeless children and at-risk youth.

Andy Hill is good for the budget, children and teachers. No, we do not need another shill for the WEA. Just say “no” to Mr. Isenhower.Steven Swedenburg, Kirkland

Sen. Andy Hill’s budget missed our priorities

As a parent and constituent, I felt compelled to respond to Sen. Andy Hill’s claim that his budget funded our priorities, especially education. Hill did not make a signi� cant in-crease in education spending dur-ing the last legislative session as he claims. While education spending did increase, it was only by about 1 percent of what the state Supreme Court and members of both parties

have said is needed to meet the needs of our children. � at means we have 99 percent more to go.

Sen. Hill chose to give lip service to what is a looming obligation to our kids and our state’s future.

Sen. Hill could have added $200 million to Washington’s educa-tion system by eliminating inef-� cient, unpro� table tax breaks, but instead he protected these tax breaks, prioritizing oil company pro� ts over kids. It is time to make real investments in our children. I give Sen. Hill’s budget an F grade when it comes to our kids and our priorities.Kathleen Reynolds, Redmond

• As a constituent of Sen. Andy Hill’s, I read with great interest his guest column in your newspa-per (addressing our community’s priorities for government, April 25). Our state is at a crossroads due to the Supreme Court mandate to fully fund education, and we have an obligation to our children to

It has been hard to miss all the attention being given to the legalization of marijuana for adults. Many adults are understandably concerned about the increased availability of pot and its effect on our kids.

However, less is being said about a very real and alarming youth drug trend: the increased use of amphet-amines.

Commonly known as meth, speed, Ecstasy or coke, amphetamines stimulate the central nervous system. For years, TV and mov-ies have portrayed how young adults use these drugs to pull all-nighters before exams or to party all night long.

But did you know that growing num-bers of children and teens are abusing legal amphetamines such as Adderall and Ritalin, used widely to treat attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)?

Clients at Youth Eastside Services (YES) say they are taking these drugs not necessari-ly to get high, but often simply to get through their day. And what a day it is! Consider a student who gets up at five in the morning to go to early sports practice, followed by a demanding day at school and a swim meet at a neighboring school.

She crams in some studying in the car after her dad picks her up. She eats a late supper and then heads to her room to finish her term paper and study for a physics exam — all the while texting with several friends.

It’s after midnight before she collapses into a restless sleep, because she’s thinking about her part-time job, youth symphony, church

youth group and the family ski trip coming up. It’s no surprise that such a teen resorts to stimulants just to keep her head above water.

Staying up late by taking “study drugs” often begins with highly advertised — and ridiculously caffeinated — energy drinks like Red Bull or 5-Hour-Energy. When these readily available stimulants no longer make the grade, some youth step up to prescrip-tion drugs. At YES, we repeatedly hear that our clients buy Adderall or Ritalin from their friends who have legitimate prescriptions (to manage ADD or ADHD). Some kids either don’t want to take their medication or would rather have the money. Simply put, school has become “the place” to score easy speed.

When a child takes another student’s prescription, the risk of overdose is high (ob-viously, there are no recommended dosages or pharmacist’s instructions). Unfortunately, kids assume that since the drugs are legal and their friends are supposed to take them every day, the pills won’t be harmful.

Another source of prescription stimu-lants may be in your own medicine cabinet. Teens have learned that antidepressants and Sudafed (or other cold medications including pseudoephedrine) can help with an all-nighter. I cannot stress enough that you need to keep all prescription medicines in a locked cabinet or box whenever you have children in your home.

“I take what I need to stay awake” is something we often hear at YES. Many young people connect their substance use to the growing pressure to succeed. The expecta-tions placed on youth these days are truly unprecedented. We encourage our kids from a young age to excel in school, sports, volun-teer commitments and artistic endeavors. We sign them up for lots of enriching activities. We give our kids smartphones that put the world in their hands 24/7. We want their col-lege applications to stand above the crowd so

Bond results will be certified on Tuesday

According to the King County Elections website on Wednesday evening, the Lake Wash-ington School District Proposition No. 1 bond’s approval percentage was 52.57 with a 47.43 rejec-tion percentage.

As previously reported, the bond needs a 60 percent “yes” vote and a minimum turnout of

18,503 to pass.The $404 million bond would fund the

construction of three new elementary schools, two in Redmond and one in Kirkland; a new middle school; a new westside STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) focused school on the Juanita High School (JHS) campus; the rebuild of JHS; and an addition to Lake Washington High School. The bond would also leave some funds for future capital projects.

Results will be certified on Tuesday.

choose the right path. Unfortunately, the

path Sen. Hill has chosen leaves our families and our schools to fend for them-selves. As the Senate’s chief budget writer, Hill likes to talk about education. Yet those like myself who care about our local schools know this legislative session was another missed oppor-tunity for our kids.

Our schools are so severely overcrowded and underfunded due to the failure of Hill and the Sen-ate Republicans to meet our constitutional obligation to fund education. Our very own Lake Washington School District needs 79 new classrooms to reduce class sizes in kindergarten through third grade.

There were solutions readily available this ses-sion, but Hill chose not to take advantage of them. Hill refused to close a single one of the 650 tax loopholes on the books — including one for “Big Oil” — that cost our state billions each year. Instead of closing tax loopholes, he proposed to open 18 new tax loopholes that would have cost us $87 million. Hill prioritized greedy corporations and insider lobbyists over our kids’ future.

Our education system will not be funded until we elect people willing to do more than just pat themselves on the back. This November, I ask my neighbors to join me in voting for Matt Isenhower, who has promised to sup-port working families and our kids’ education instead of corporate lobbyists. Sharon Sherrard, Kirkland

I’m against tax increases

I vote “no” on any and all tax increases. I don’t care what they’re for. Whether roads, schools or 911 services, I always vote “no.” (Why must we vote for a basic service like 911, when we don’t get to vote for a frill like freeway art?) I also vote against any politi-cian who advocates any tax increase. I particularly

vote against any politician who promises to “invest” in roads, education etc. These politicians can’t even be honest about their desire for a tax increase.

Well into this supposed recovery, I suffered a series of pay cuts. I now make 40 percent less than I did before this recession. I consider myself lucky, since I still have a job. Each year, my disposable income is further reduced by prop-erty tax increases, sales tax increases, car tab increases and gas tax increases. In a supposedly low inflation environment, prices for essentials like food and gas have gone through the roof. Obamacare raised my health insurance by 46 percent and doubled my deductible. That’s 46 percent more for half the coverage. As a 53-year-old male, Obamacare forces me to buy insurance I don’t need, like pregnancy and prescription coverage. This unneeded coverage raises my costs so much that I can no longer afford the dental insurance I really need and want.

So to all levels of govern-ment, I want to say I am through. I am tapped out. I am sucked dry.

However, even if I were doing well, I would still vote “no” on every tax increase. I will not willingly pay for your bloated bu-reaucracy, yearly pay raises and generous pensions. If we give government any more money, all we can ex-pect is more incompetence, arrogance and a general lack of value for the dollar.

Except for the morning and evening runs to and from Seattle, I see mostly empty buses. As I slog through Eastside traffic, it is obvious that these empty buses contribute more than their share to the infuriat-ing congestion. Metro has the third highest operat-ing cost per mile in the country. Each rider’s fare is subsidized 82 percent by the taxpayer.

Our road funds are diverted to fringe uses like bike lanes and bus-only lanes. The majority of our highway funds already go to various mass-transit

agencies. Most people drive and will always drive. Instead of actually prioritiz-ing congestion reduction, the government pushes stupid light rail plans that actually reduce road capac-ity on I-90. They build a convention center over the I-5 freeway knowing that it would create a permanent chokepoint. Several years ago, Kemper Freeman came up with a cost-effective and common-sense plan to reduce congestion by improving roads at known chokepoints. The usual, “you can’t build your way out of congestion” crowd shot his plan down.

Even when we actually manage to get a new road project started, it’s usually designed to carry fewer cars. The viaduct replace-ment will carry fewer ve-hicles. SR-520 has no added general purpose lanes, but of course, it will have a state of the art bike lane. Even worse, the problems with the 520 concrete pontoons and Big Bertha drilling ma-chine are ample evidence of the general incompe-tence of government to do anything.

The government at all levels already collects plenty of revenue. What is needed is serious spending reform. Government labor unions must be elimi-nated. (When government workers bargain with a boss who owes his political survival to the workers he is negotiating with, it is an obvious conflict of inter-est.) So-called “prevail-ing wage” laws must be eliminated. (This law forces the government to pay more than actual market rate for construction labor.) Using the sales tax on transportation projects to divert transportation funds to the general fund should also be stopped. Frankly, if the government could just complete a road project without wildly inflated costs and total mismanage-ment, it would go a long way to restoring my faith in government. When I start seeing the government get serious about real reform, I’ll reconsider my position on taxes.Glenn Angliss, Redmond

The meeting was the result of neighbors’ concerns about the possibility of the reli-gious group building its new mosque at 15252 N.E. 51st St. — putting it in the middle of a residential neighborhood.

As previously reported in

the Redmond Reporter, one of the main concerns people have is related to the addition-al traffic and congestion a new 20,000-plus square-foot com-munity facility could bring to the neighborhood. Residents are also worried that members of the mosque’s congregation will park in the neighborhood when the 36-stall onsite park-ing lot becomes full. Residents also had concerns regarding additional noise that could come from the proposed mosque.

To address these issues, City of Redmond planner Thara Johnson, who has been over-seeing the project, first pro-vided background informa-

tion on the planning process. She told the community that because the mosque is a reli-gious building, it is permissible under the neighborhood’s current zoning code. Johnson also explained that approving Anjuman-e-Burhani Mosque’s — or the applicant’s — permit is an administrative process, thus not requiring City Coun-cil approval.

Many of those who at-tended the meeting did not agree with the latter and some voiced the opinion that Redmond City Council should vote on the issue as the members are elected officials and representatives of the community. These sentiments were met with applause from many in the audience.

During discussions about traffic, Hozaifa Cassubhai, a representative speaking on behalf of Anjuman-e-Burhani Mosque, explained that they are Dawoodi Bohras Muslims — a very small denomina-tion of the Islamic faith with about one million members worldwide, compared to the 1.6 billion total of all Muslims worldwide — with a local con-

gregation of about 155. As a result, the traffic impact from the proposed mosque would be limited, especially as they estimate their daily attendance for evening prayers to be 5-10 people.

In addition, Ali Aamer Habib, another representa-tive speaking on behalf of the mosque, said when they hold community gatherings — which occur about twice a month — they are usually after sunset.

Kurt Seemann, a senior engineer for the City of

Redmond’s transportation division, said based on this information, as well as a traffic study, they estimate about 12-21 additional vehicle trips in the area during the peak hours of 4-6 p.m.

In response to residents’ concerns about parking, See-mann said, “The parking can be accommodated onsite.”

Habib also told the com-munity that their 36 proposed parking stalls would be sufficient, and during bigger events, they would utilize valet parking to double park cars and increase parking capacity to 65 spots. And if this is not enough, he said Anjuman-e-Burhani Mosque would utilize off-site parking at VFW Post 2995, which is less than a mile southwest of the proposed site, and provide a shuttle service to the mosque.

In terms of noise, Habib told the audience that they never have broadcast calls to prayer like other mosques may do. In addition, all of the Anjuman-e-Burhani Mosque’s activities take place indoors so neighbors don’t have to worry about things getting loud, he said.

Following the city’s and Anjuman-e-Burhani Mosque’s presentations, members of the

audience had the opportunity to comment and ask ques-tions.

In addition to the desire to see the issue put in front of City Council, residents also shared their grievances about not being notified earlier in the planning process. A few people who spoke also pointed out inconsistencies in the plan regarding the numbers used for the building’s capacity and the community’s congregation size. One man added that he is also concerned about the future and how Anjuman-e-Burhani Mosque would accommodate growth within its congregation. Many people also expressed that they are not satisfied with the traffic and parking studies.

After about two hours, it became clear to city planners that the issues concerning the proposed mosque would not be resolved in one night, so an additional community meeting will be held May 14. Details for the meeting’s time and place have not been final-ized yet. After that, the issue will go before the city’s Design Review Board on May 15. This meeting will be at 7 p.m. at Redmond City Council chambers, at 15670 N.E. 85th St. and is open to the public.

they can go to the school of their (or our) dreams.

It’s so important to take stock of your family’s schedule. Is the desire to expose our children to everything life has to offer compromising their healthy development and ability to cope? I encourage all parents to adopt three resolu-tions for the year to come:

Expect less. Involve your kids in an honest discussion about their schedules. Is there anything outside of schoolwork that doesn’t feel right for them? Is there something they want to give up to create more time in their week?

Talk more. Share what you have learned about the use of

“study drugs,” and be honest about your concerns regarding potential harm.

Lastly, please lock your medicine cabinet. No parent wants to look back and say, “If only …”

Should you have concerns about your child’s substance use or ability to manage the stress associated with modern life, agencies like YES can provide an assessment and additional resources.

When a person experi-ences a medical emergency, there is a time gap from the time it happens, to when someone calls 911, to when first responders arrive on the scene.

In the case of a sudden cardiac arrest, that time gap can be all it takes before an individual sustains a brain injury from lack of oxygen. Redmond Fire Department (RFD) paramedic Doug Scheaffer said it takes just 4-6 minutes before a brain injury can occur, but the use of CPR can greatly reduce this risk.

On March 30, Scheaf-fer was one of several first responders in Redmond who saw firsthand the importance of CPR following a heart-related medical emergency.

That morning, 59-year-old Dan Kerr of Woodinville had a heart attack while driving along Avondale Road North-east. He survived thanks to the quick response of four community members and their ability to provide CPR until first responders arrived.

Just a few days after the event, Kerr was out of the hos-pital. Within a week, he visited Redmond Fire Station 11, one of the stations that responded to the scene, to thank the firefighters and paramedics who worked on him.

On Wednesday, Kerr vis-ited Fire Station 16, the other station that responded to the call, and met some of the

other first responders who worked on him as well as three of the four civilians who called 911 and performed CPR on him.

It was an emotional event for Kerr when he met Kristyn Brown, Lance Traicoff and Erik von Fuchs (Matthew Gallagher, the fourth civilian who came to Kerr’s aid was out of town at the time and could not attend).

“I want you guys to know that my chest really hurts — it’s a good hurt,” Kerr told his rescuers when he met them.

The meeting was emo-tional for Brown, Traicoff and von Fuchs, as well, as follow-ing the event, they did not know if Kerr had survived that day.

“I was shaking,” von Fuchs said as he recalls his response to the events in late March.

Von Fuchs and Galla-gher were the first to arrive at Kerr’s truck after he went into cardiac arrest. Von Fuchs said he remembers seeing the vehicle going through the intersection of Avondale Road and Northeast Union Hill Road at about 5 mph, looking at the driver and real-izing something was wrong. He parked his vehicle in the nearby Aegis Living parking lot and then ran to Kerr’s truck to help, along with Gallagher.

Brown and Traicoff arrived on the scene shortly after and it was Brown — a veterinar-ian — who initiated CPR. She said they practice CPR at her clinic and so she had some

experience. And even though she wasn’t sure what type of medical episode Kerr had experienced, she said starting CPR couldn’t hurt.

“We had nothing to lose,” she said.

For Kerr, all he had to lose was his life, so he is very grateful to the four citizens who came to his aid.

“I don’t know what to say,” he said. “What do you say to people that save your life except ‘Thank you?’”

Members of Kerr’s ex-tended family were also in attendance to thank both the civilian rescuers as well as the first responders.

Kerr added that the heart attack was caused by a clogged artery, but he has not had any sort of heart issues prior to this. He will go back for a followup check up with doctors in about three months.

In addition to meeting Kerr for the first time after his heart attack, Brown, Traicoff and von Fuchs were pre-sented with a special medal from RFD for their efforts on Wednesday. Gallagher is set to meet Kerr and receive his medal next week.

Fire Chief Tommy Smith was on hand to present them with the medal. He said they couldn’t have scripted the situation more perfectly, say-ing the four civilians’ role in the emergency was “abso-lutely priceless.”

“You can’t put a dollar sign on that,” Smith said about saving Kerr’s life.

Special to the Reporter

Bill Nelson zeroed in on Redmond for his first real estate purchase by call-ing the telephone company and ask-ing them what area was projected for growth. The answer was Redmond, and in 1952 he bought property at the corner of Redmond Way and Leary Way where he

built a Texaco station. Even though the pro-jected growth was slow to unfold, he chose to even-tually locate his business and raise his family in the city, all the while continuing to expand his commercial properties in the immediate area and beyond.

Sons Buff and Mike Nelson will reflect on their father’s legacy at the Redmond Historical Society Saturday Speaker Series at 10:30 a.m. on May 10 at the Old Red-mond Schoolhouse Com-munity Center (16600 N.E. 80th St.). They will also share recollections

of the development and growth of the city from both the perspective of commercial property de-velopers and native sons.

“It is interesting to look at how and why a city develops over time,” shared Buff Nelson, who plans to include aerial photos of the city in

the talk. “When my dad invested in the ‘50s, the growth didn’t materialize as fast as expected. There were no good roads out here.”

Former Redmond May-or Rosemarie Ives will moderate a conversation with the Nelson brothers after their slideshow and talk.

Among recollections is the 1972 purchase of Redmond Center that included tenants Sears, IGA, Coast to Coast and Obrien’s Turkey House. Nelson speculates that “today’s shoppers, with our newest tenant, Trader Joe’s, would find it hard to imagine that a blue colonial building with white columns was once an iconic part of the center.”

Bill Nelson passed away in 2004. Today his five children carry

on the family business, Nelson Legacy Group, which owns and operates retail and office proper-ties located in Redmond, Kirkland and eastern Washington.

The Saturday Speaker Series is a monthly program presented by the Redmond Historical Society on every second Saturday (with the excep-tion of December). Top-ics range from local, state and Pacific Northwest historical interest. There is a suggested $5 dona-tion for non-members.

The Redmond His-torical Society is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organiza-tion that receives sup-port from the City of Redmond, 4 Culture, Nintendo, the Bellevue Collection, and Humani-ties Washington as well as from other donors and members.

With Redmond’s residential and business communities continuing to flourish, several city-wide development proj-ects designed to accom-modate these choices are under way, including the downtown and Overlake endeavors.

Integral to bringing these new efforts to life is the city’s persistent commitment to sustain-able, efficient construc-tion practices.

“Encouraging envi-ronmental stewardship — both at work and in the community — is a necessary ingredient to the way we approach our

construction endeavors and to the vitality and growth of our city,” said City of Redmond Mayor John Marchione. “From large-scale, long-term efforts such as our Over-lake Village initiative to simple everyday choices at work, each decision we make has an impact.”

Though Redmond has been lauded for its design trends and its commitment to sustain-able efforts for years, the city’s current construc-tion climate, with its increased focus on efficiency, can be traced back to 2009 when the city adopted the Green Building and Green Infrastructure Incentive

Program, an initiative designed to implement green development and reduce impact on carbon footprints and natural resources.

“Initially, the program was targeted towards single family residen-tial developments,” said Cathy Beam, a principal environmental planner for the city’s Depart-ment of Planning and Community Develop-ment. “But we ultimately expanded it out to include multi-family, commercial and mixed-use developments.”

According to Beam, the city has succeeded in tapping into a recent paradigm shift that not

only encourages more sustainable efforts, but also makes good eco-nomic sense.

“Green buildings are becoming mainstream,” she said. “They lease quickly at a premium price per square foot and they also sell faster than non-green build-ings.”

By the end of 2013, Redmond featured 16 LEED-certified projects, 14 ENERGY STAR-certi-fied buildings and more

than 1,200 BuiltGreen-certified projects — 836 of which represented six recently constructed downtown multi-family or mixed use projects.

Beam said those num-bers are proof that the trend has spilled outside the traditional green av-enues of incentives and special programs.

“We are noticing that most of our residential developments in North Redmond are receiving BuiltGreen certifica-tion — though they are not necessarily doing this through the Green Incentive Program,” she said. “Again, it’s evidence of the shift in business practices and market demand.”

Marchione agrees, and thinks the old adage “lead by example” also plays a role in the city’s increasing trend toward green construction.

“My hope is that this devotion to sustainable construction prac-tices trickles down from large-scale projects to small-scale decisions that have a big impact — like getting involved in recycling programs, or turning out lights not in use, or conserving water in the home,” he said. “That kind of culture change — involving the simple, subtle efforts — is just as important as our broad, sweeping ini-tiatives and is ultimately what truly resonates.”

Sustainability is an essential ingredient to Redmond’s construction success

When the bell rings for summer break, more than 16,000 kids in north and east King County stand to lose something most people take for granted: a regular healthy, nutri-tious breakfast or lunch. For local kids who are part of their school’s free and reduced-price meal pro-grams, summer vacation can mean an end to know-ing for sure when they will eat again.

Hopelink CEO Lauren Thomas said the conse-quences of this gap extend far beyond the discomfort of going to bed hungry.

“We know that when children don’t have access to nutritious food when they are young, they sometimes face develop-mental challenges that can affect them for the rest of their lives,” Thomas said.

“We know that hungry children get sick more often — and they are hospitalized more often. And we know that hungry children have more social and behavioral problems because they can’t adapt as effectively to stressful situ-ations. But we also know that hungry kids often lack the stamina to just be kids, which — when you’re a child during the summer months — can be

the most important thing of all,” Thomas added. “Hopelink’s End Summer Hunger program is a local effort to ensure that chil-dren living in our commu-nity have the best possible opportunity to grow up healthy and prepared to learn while their parents are working to get back on their feet.”

End Summer Hunger — running now through August — is Hopelink’s annual grassroots cam-paign aimed at ensur-ing that local kids in low-income families have enough to eat while they’re on summer break. The fundraising drive brings together local businesses, organizations, schools and individuals to help provide food for kids who receive free and reduced-fee breakfasts and lunches during the school year. Over the next several months, Hopelink is encouraging groups and individuals alike to get in-volved with the campaign.

The proceeds from End Summer Hunger will stock the agency’s five food banks for the high-demand summer months when kids are not in school and the subsidized school programs are not available. Last year, 6,148 visits to Hopelink food banks during the summer

months provided food that children would likely not have had otherwise. The End Summer Hunger program provides ad-ditional healthy breakfast and lunch-type foods to current food bank clients with school-aged children; including fresh fruit and fruit juices, peanut butter, cereal, ramen and snacks.

Bank of America is the Presenting Sponsor for End Summer Hun-ger 2014. In addition to Signature Sponsor First Tech Credit Union, lead sponsors are Concur Tech-nologies, Labor Ready, Lakeside Industries and UnitedHealthcare. Major sponsors are Central Mar-ket and AvalonBay Com-munities, and CamWest Development is a support-ing sponsor.

Schools that support the End Summer Hun-ger program encourage children in classrooms to collect coins, while busi-nesses, organizations and civic or community clubs hold food drives, fund drives, or both.

“They want to make sure to run their market the way they have been,” she said, adding that they like the market’s emphasis on local products and would like to keep it that way if the market moved to Center Court. “We think all of that is great.”

Klein, who is the town center’s property manager, said since JSH took over RTC in August, they have been in the process of upgrading Center Court to make it more pedes-trian friendly. One part of that process has been the idea of incorporating a weekly market and Klein said they would like to make plans to accommodate RSM.

“We’re trying to include them more into Redmond

Town Center and the com-munity,” she said.

In addition to the possibility of losing autonomy, Godwin said another concern about potentially moving to Center Court is that market vendors would be in direct competition with stores in the town center.

“You’re mixing the market vendors with commercial ven-dors,” he said, adding that RSM organizers pride themselves on not being like the typical mall vendors. “This would be a huge change for us.”

Godwin, a Bothell resident who is also an RSM vendor

selling concrete garden art, also noted that the structures under which some of the vendors are housed on market Saturday were built by volunteers when RSM first moved to its current location and are very sturdy. This indicates an intention that this was supposed to be a permanent location for the market, he said.

“We’d like to stay there, ide-ally,” Godwin said.

He admitted that vendors at the RSM are spoiled in that they are able to park their cars right behind their booths. Moving locations would mean losing that perk. In addition, he said if RTC goes ahead and holds a Saturday market — which would be a separate one from RSM — they could lose some

vendors to that market.Since staying in the same

location for future market seasons may not be possible, RSM organizers are looking at various potential locations including Redmond City Hall and Downtown Park.

“We’re trying to keep our options open,” Godwin said.

But before seriously considering any place, he said they have to look at things logistically and make sure they would be able to meet health codes, provide hot water for vendors selling food, adequate restrooms, electricity and other details.

“These are considerations we have to take into account,” he said about the search for a new location.

Klein pointed out that if RSM were to move to Center Court, this would solve some of the logistical issues such as hav-ing portable restrooms. She said JSH’s intention in renovating Center Court is to incorporate a market, but details such as whether it will be RSM, a sepa-rate market and what day of the week it will be held are still in the works.

RSM Director Nicole Wrig-ley agreed that there are a lot of different things to think about when considering the future of RSM.

But one aspect of the RSM is especially important to them.

“It’s really essential that wherever we do end up that we can continue to operate as we are,” she said.

DANA POINTPriced $829,9508330 138th Lane NE | Redmond, WA 98052425-345-3730www.belmarkhomes.com

American Heart Associa-tion (AHA) Puget Sound. It was through her work there that she connected with her peers in Red-mond to help organize an event to raise money and awareness for heart health.

The first-ever Color Run for Heart 5K run/walk was held last Sat-urday at Redmond Town Center (RTC) and was organized by leadership students at Redmond High School (RHS) with help from the AHA Puget Sound — and by exten-sion, Luqman.

THINKING BIGThe event came about

through Dawn McCutch-eon, the youth market director for AHA Puget Sound, who has been working to raise heart-health awareness at the high school level. She said this usually mani-fests in the form of a “red out for heart” event in which people wear red to a sports game to show their support for heart health. When she teamed up with the leadership class at RHS in the fall of 2013, McCutcheon said the students wanted to expand things beyond their school walls to in-clude the community.

The result was the Color Run.

“I was very excited that they wanted to do it big-ger,” said McCutcheon, who is a sudden cardiac arrest survivor.

She said the students reached out to other schools within the Lake Washington School District to promote the community event and McCutcheon said their efforts were rewarded. The Color Run had about 250 participants and they have raised more than $6,500 so far, with more

money coming in from donors. McCutcheon said high schools usually raise an average of about $2,200 in their fundrais-ers.

“They did really well,” she said about the RHS leadership team. “It’ll be one of the top fundrais-ing high schools in the state.”

A PERSONAL CONNECTIONElaine Wang, who was

co-head for the Color Run along with Evan O’Neill, said they wanted to do a color run because they thought it would be a fun way to spread awareness about an im-portant issue. But things became more impactful for the RHS senior and her classmates when they met Luqman and heard her story. Wang, 18, said knowing someone so close to their age affected by heart disease really opened their eyes to how far-reaching it is.

Luqman said young people need to know how important heart health is because heart disease does not just affect older people.

“I’m just like them,” she pointed out about her peers, adding that parents need to be aware that it could happen to their children, as well.

For Luqman, seeing her peers work to get the community involved in a cause she believes in so much was a humbling experience — especially as she was already good friends with one of the RHS students before they began planning the Color Run.

“For her to step up…I thought it was a really great thing,” Luqman said.

That friend was senior Noor Awad. The 17-year-old and Luqman have known each other for about 12 years through

their families but it wasn’t until the last few years that Awad knew more about her friend’s heart condition. Awad didn’t know she would be work-ing with her friend on the Color Run until Luqman came to their class with McCutcheon. When she showed up, Awad said she was excited to work with Luqman because the cause became more personal for her.

“It was a great sur-prise,” Awad said.

WORTH THEIR EFFORTFor the students, or-

ganizing the Color Run was a lot of work and involved more than they had realized going into it.

“There were so many permits we had to get,” Luqman said.

In addition, she said they had to have insur-ance for participants, get vendors, sponsors, publicity and more.

Wang agreed that there was more to making the event happen than she expected. Before this, she had been part of the youth advisory commit-tee for a Relay for Life event, but the Color Run was much more involved.

“It was much more overwhelming, but much more gratifying,” she said, adding that O’Neill and their fellow Color Run committee members really came together to make it happen. “It was really a joint effort and a committee effort.”

Despite all of this work, Luqman agreed that it was gratifying and said she would absolutely be part of it again if the Color Run becomes an annual event.

“It really just made it worth it,” she said about seeing all the participants as well as sharing her story and leading off the run. “I thought that was really cool.”

The City of Redmond was recently bestowed with a 2013 Tree City USA award by the Arbor Day Foundation in honor of its commitment to effective urban forest management.

Redmond achieved this recognition by meeting the program’s four re-quirements: a tree board or department, a tree-care ordinance, an an-nual community forestry budget of at least $2 per capita and an Arbor Day observance and procla-mation.

The Tree USA pro-gram is sponsored by the Arbor Foundation, in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service and the

National Association of State Foresters.

“As a city that prides it-self in responsible forest preservation, thanks in large part to our talented team of arborists, we are honored to receive this award,” said Redmond Mayor John Marchione.

On April 25, a group of 28 Horace Mann Elemen-tary fourth- and fifth-graders helped city staff plant four ornamental cherry trees at Hartman Park. Teacher Marie Hartford joined her stu-dents at the event, which featured Marchione reading an Arbor Day proclamation. The stu-dents are all members of the school’s Opportunity

Team, formerly known as the Green Team.

Cleaner air, improved storm water manage-ment, energy savings, increased property values and commercial activity are among the benefits enjoyed by Tree City USA communities.

“Everyone benefits when elected officials, volunteers and commit-ted citizens in communi-ties like Redmond make smart investments in urban forests,” said John Rosenow, founder and chief executive of the Arbor Day Foundation.

With the playo� s right around the corner, Red-mond High’s boys soccer players know what needs to be done to make it deep into the postseason.

“We’re going to need a lot of commitment out of everyone,” said senior for-ward Ryan Pfeifer, who had � ve goals at the Reporter’s deadline to go along with senior mid� elder Stephen Jinneman’s � ve to tie for the team lead.

Added senior goalkeeper Grayson Ra� ensperger prior to Redmond’s 2-1 loss to Skyline on Tuesday night: “We’ve got to be able to hold the ball and not get upset when things aren’t going well. We’ve got to stay tough and play as one.”

Heading into last night’s match against Eastlake (af-ter the Reporter’s deadline), the Mustangs were 5-3-1 in 4A Kingco play and 7-5-1 overall.

Redmond kicked o� the league play with a 4-0-1 record and hopes to regain that � re.

“We have 20 good guys on the team, so you always know the 11 on the � eld is going to be a solid 11,” said Jinneman, who shares captain duties with Ra� ens-perger. “It’s always fun to play. You look forward to coming to practices every day. You look forward to playing in these games. You know you’re going to have a good time with your friends out here.”

Redmond had posted � ve shutouts (with both Ra� ensperger and Agazi Birkner sharing net duties) and tallied 24 goals at press time. League shutouts were

against Gar� eld, 1-0, and Newport, 4-0.

Other top goal scorers this season are Pablo Gallo-Arias with three and Edson Basurto, Andrew Draz-kowski, Brenden Narloch and Daniel Piker with two each.

OVERLAKEIt’s crunch time for Over-

lake’s boys soccer team.With wins against

Northwest School today and Bush tomorrow, the Owls could slide into the 1A Emerald City League playo� s. Overlake, which is 1-4-1 in league and 4-4-1

overall, needs to crack into the top three of the � ve-team league to make the postseason; the Owls are currently � � h.

Overlake warmed up for those matches by defeat-ing 3A school Evergreen, 4-3, on Wednesday thanks to four goals from junior

forward Shawn McCall. Along with McCall,

Overlake’s top players this year are senior mid� elders Rob Neir and Chris Chin, senior defenders Andrew Gold and Elijah Waalkes and freshmen mid� elders Nathan Cunningham and Loucas Tsilas, according to coaches Michael Krumb-holz and Micah Orr.

“Our starting 11 is almost all seniors and we’ve played together for awhile. We’ve got a good mesh between everybody, good chemistry, good passing skills,” said Gold, adding that the Owls are a strong team that can pull through and earn a playo� berth.

Waalkes, Neir and Chin — all members of Over-lake’s 2012 state champion-ship squad — echo Gold’s

comments and feel it’s time for the Owls to strike.

Neir reminisces about what he learned when he stepped on the Overlake soccer pitch as a freshman and feels that successful team’s top qualities need to come into play today and tomorrow: “I think I’ve learned a lot about disci-pline and camaraderie from my coaches and from my teammates.”

Overlake players are not only striving for victory on the � eld, but in the class-room, as well.

“I think we’ve all learned to balance our studies and soccer,” Chin said. “Being a student-athlete here is really challenging because of the type of academic environ-ment here, so I’ve learned to manage my time.”

� e City of Redmond’s Girls Unlimited – Dream, � ink, Do was held last Saturday with about 60 young women coming to-gether to hear from women and three young men about what it takes to get into their � elds.

Detectives from the Redmond Police Department as well as individuals from Swerve Robot-ics, Xbox and the Paci� c Science Center shared what they do and involved the girls in an activity. � ese activities included trying on a bullet proof vest, playing an Xbox game, controlling a robot and examining the solar system.

Comments from attendees touched on how they enjoyed the experi-ence and learned a lot.

Madison Minske, a junior at STEM School shared, “It was a great event. I really enjoyed it.”

Minske was the emcee for the day and also participated in the sessions.

“� is is our fourth year and we created an event that girls are excited about,” said Ken Wong, Teen Programs administrator. “We hope to continue these programs that empower young people to explore all options and be hopeful to new ideas. Girls Unlimited has created opportu-nities for our teens to see what other female professionals have

done to get to where they are today.”

The Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission (WSCJTC) in Burien will hold its Chief for a Day celebration on Aug. 21.

In partnership with local law-enforcement agencies and the com-munities of Washington state, Chief for a Day is about celebrating the lives of children who have been diagnosed with a life-threatening or chronic illness.

This year, 34 law-enforcement agencies — including Redmond — will sponsor a child to participate in the event. Each law-enforcement

agency will provide their honorary “chief ” or “sheriff ” with a hand-tailored uniform and a gift basket that will in-clude items for the child and their family such as toys, movie passes, gas cards, various gift cards and more. This year’s participants range in age from 3 to 14 years old.

The children and their families will be trans-ported to the WSCJTC in police cars by police escort. The motorcade will be leaving Sho-Ware Center in Kent at 9:45 a.m. heading to the WSCJTC arriv-ing in Burien around 10:15 a.m. It will

travel through Kent, Des Moines, Normandy Park and unincorporated King County using a route to be issued soon.

The sponsored chil-dren will be sworn in as chiefs and sheriffs at 11 a.m., have lunch with all attendees and acad-emy recruits and then participate in outside presentations provided by law-enforcement agencies and criminal-justice entities including K-9 units, bicycle pa-trols, SWAT, rifle units and more.

Arielle Young has had it with being one of the few female guitarists she knows, so she’s decided to do some-thing about it.

� is summer, Young — who is the vice president of the local nonpro� t music school, Dace’s Rock ‘n’ More Music Academy — will be teaching a group guitar class speci� cally designed for girls ages 9-13 at the music school in Redmond.

“Somehow, guitar became a thing that guys do but girls don’t so much, and I’m going to change that,” Young said.

� e group guitar classes will range in size from 3-5 girls and each weekly lesson will be 50 minutes long. Times and dates will be determined based on the needs of the students. � e classes will begin just a� er the July 4 holiday and con-tinue through the rest of the summer. Enrollment for the class began April 21 and will continue until all available times are sold out. Tuition is $60 per student per month and tuition assistance is available.

Leading change for a cleaner and greener world. Think you can throw a lunch for 685 guests and have almost nothing to throw away? That’s exactly what the Lake Washington Schools Foundation did on Earth Day this year.

In partnership with Waste Management, the Foundation’s annual Legacy for Learning luncheon produced less than one ounce of waste per person. Everything else was either recycled or composted. The Foundation set a record for donations and a record for zero waste.

On Earth Day and every day, we celebrate the Foundation’s commitment to sustainability.

If you would like to learn how to create a zero waste event, please contact Waste Management at [email protected].










More than 40 employee volunteers from AT&T’s west region headquarters in Redmond recently joined together for a beauti� cation project at Marymoor Park in King County.

In celebration of National Volunteer Week, April 6-12, the volunteers removed in-vasive Himalayan blackber-ry plants along the eastern fence line. � e weed was overgrowing in that part of Marymoor Park and the AT&T employees removed it by cutting and digging out the roots.

� e day’s activity helped improve the eastern fence line area of the park, while making it much more at-tractive and stopping the spread of the plant. � e volunteer event was one of

10 taking place across the country that week.

“Anyone who has dealt with blackberries will tell you, they are diligent in their resolve not to be removed. Our small band of volunteers tackled this task head on, su� ering on minor cuts and scraps from this tenacious plant,” said AT&T volunteer project leader Shane Boyd. “It was fun to partner coworkers from our Redmond o� ces. � ere were no cubicles or buildings separating us, no ranks or titles, just indi-viduals coming together to help make a park that we all enjoy a little brighter and a little less thorny.”

National Volunteer Week was established in 1974 and focuses national attention on the impact and power of

volunteerism and service as an integral aspect of civic leadership. � e week draws the support and endorse-ment of the president and Congress, governors, mayors and municipal lead-ers, as well as corporate and community groups across the country.

� e National Volunteer Week events are part of AT&T Community Engage-ment, which o� ers employ-ees the opportunity to help their communities thrive. Last year, AT&T employees and retirees volunteered more than 5.3 million hours of time in community outreach activities, worth more than $118 million and pledged more than $35 million for charities of their choice through employee giving.

Redmond recognized for smart city design

The City of Redmond has been recognized for its

actions in supporting smart city design.

On April 3, at the Feet First Walkable Washington Symposium, the Redmond Central Connector (RCC) received Feet First’s highest honor for an exceptional project directly contrib-uting to the creation of a healthy, livable and walkable community in Washington.

The concept of convert-

ing the former rail corridor into a regional trail was conceived 17 years ago through a public engage-ment process. Over the years, Redmond worked with a group of govern-ment, community and busi-ness leaders to complete the real estate transaction and plans for developing the RCC.

“It’s been a privilege to be a part of the team that

fulfilled the dream of creat-ing walkable connections in downtown,” said Carolyn Hope, park planning and cultural services manager for the City of Redmond. “The Connector is already transforming downtown.”

The RCC enhances the pedestrian experience in downtown by integrating art, lighting and landscap-ing within urban plazas along the trail that provide

opportunities for commu-nity gathering and events. The project is improv-ing the pedestrian travel through the heart of down-town and connecting Old Town to Redmond Town Center. The first mile of the RCC also knits together more than 60 miles of regional trails including the East Lake Sammamish and Sammamish River Trails. As a result, more people are walking and bicycling in downtown.

This project is a core component of Redmond’s strategy to accommodate growth by integrating trans-portation, recreation and land use.

“These investments will enrich the face of down-town Redmond for future generations by creating a destination where people come to gather, shop, and experience the City’s diverse culture,” said Red-mond Mayor John Mar-chione.

To learn more about the RCC project visit www.redmond.gov/downtown or contact Hope at [email protected] or (425) 556-2313.

Historic Walking Tours get regional award

The Redmond Historical Society’s popular walking tours through the city’s historic core picked up some significant recogni-tion last month: the society received the 2014 “Single Impact Award” from the Association of King County Historical Organizations (AKCHO) for making the tours into an annual event that shares local history while expanding the soci-ety’s reach.

“It certainly is special to be recognized by one’s peers,” said society Presi-dent Chris Himes, noting that the first historic tours started in 1976 and then lapsed for many years until they were restarted by the society and historian Tom Hitzroth.

This year’s remaining downtown tours are set for: May 18, June 15 and Sept. 14. To reserve a spot, or for more information, visit www.redmondhistoricalso-ciety.org.

AKCHO is an um-brella group comprised of heritage organizations throughout King County. The 2014 AKCHO Awards Program is made possible with support from 4Culture and MOHAI.

Mobile Queue Technologies develops new school app

Mobile Queue Technolo-gies, Inc., a Redmond-based company has developed an app that is used by parents and school staff to improve the student arrival and dismissal process, in turn helping to manage traffic around schools.

The QManager app — which has already been adopted by thirteen private schools, two public schools and two day care cen-ters — enables parents to sign their children in and out of school using their smartphones. This new technology was created to eliminate parking lot congestion, increase speed and efficiency and enhance student security in schools and day cares.

The app, which has been in the market for more than three years, is currently being used by more than 7,000 parents and guardians and is growing in popu-larity in both private and public educational facilities throughout the country, ac-cording to a Mobile Queue press release.

“Many schools may already have an older ‘desk-top’ type method but our mobile solution is much more robust, stable and easier to use,” said Mobile Queue founder and CEO Moazzam Ahmed.

Delivery & Best Prices!

425-312-5489

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