They sit silently, stoically, high on poles and under overhangs, forever watching, unflinch-ing and unblinking.
But together, the city’s video surveillance system at the Metro Transit Center, parks and other city buildings are a constant workforce for the police department, recording all they see and aiding in both evidence collection and
in some cases, such as last week’s shooting in Liberty Park, helping as a real-time investiga-tive arm of the department.
The city’s camera force, which numbers about 60, has been in use for several years, but recently some of the cameras have been up-graded to the Avigilon System, which provide access to high-definition images from nearly all police department computers, including all of those in patrol cars.
According to Sgt. Russ Radke, head of the
city’s Directed Enforcement Team and respon-sible for the downtown and transit center areas, the cameras are all put in places where the police would like to be but can’t.
“It’s been very helpful,” Radke said, adding that so far there have been “more advantages than we anticipated.”
The cameras allow the police to better use their resources, Radke said. For example, a

Renton Police are continuing to in-vestigate a May 22 shooting at Liberty Park that left a 20-year-old Seattle woman dead.
Lonnie Reynolds died at Harbor-view Medical Center at about 9:50 a.m. May 23 of a single gunshot to her torso. Her death was ruled a ho-micide by the King County medical examiner.
Multiple calls to 911 were received at about 8:30 p.m. about the shooting at the park in downtown Renton. Of-ficers found the injured woman lying on the east side of the park.
Investigators found nine shell cas-ings or pieces of lead at the park.
Based on witness accounts and city video monitoring, police learned that two women got into a fistfight, each with a group of associates, according to Detective Robert Onishi, a Renton Police spokesman.
At least one man from each of the groups pulled a gun and shots were fired between the groups, according to Onishi.
The shooting occurred not far from the children’s play area at the park.
A male subject was detained near-by on Park Avenue and questioned by the police, then released.

Habitat for Humanity of Seattle-King County may get families into homes faster, including in Renton, thanks to work completed last week during an annual AmeriCorps Build-a-Thon.
The weeklong event, hosted by Habitat for Humanity International, brought about 120 AmeriCorps members from 11 states and 27 Habitat for Humanity affiliates to the Seattle area.
About 30 visiting Ameri-Corps members put the finish-ing touches on five homes at the La Fortuna site, close to Lindbergh High School. They also helped with construction on three more homes. When the La Fortuna project is com-plete, there will be a total of 41 Habitat-built townhouses there.
Habitat for Humanity of Seat-
tle-King County is one of 1,600 affiliates of the organization around the country, building, repairing or renovating homes to house low-income families. AmeriCorps’ skilled volunteer members were also at Rainier Vista in Seattle and The Woods at Golden Given in Tacoma
working on homes there. The week included activities and sight-seeing in Seattle for recre-ation during the Build-a-Thon.
The goal of the event was to help AmeriCorps members re-flect on why they serve commu-nity projects like this, advance the construction schedule of
local projects and examine ways to better serve communities through forging partnerships in different neighborhoods.
Attending the Build-a-Thon event was Andrew Castillo’s first opportunity to visit the

Pacific Northwest. The 33-year-old from Denver worked on the roof of a La Fortuna residence last Thursday. In Denver, Castillo works in AmeriCorps Resource Development Department in Faith Relations. His efforts help create partnerships with multi-faith networks, not just the tradi-tional Christian contacts.
Castillo worked in the corpo-rate world doing digital graphics
management before he decided to work for nonprofits.
“When I left the cor-porate world was when I made the decision that it’s not about the income
I make, it’s about the impact,” he said.
Rocky Font-Soloway, another AmeriCorps member, worked on weatherproofing homes at La Fortuna last week. She’s been to Seattle prior to the Build-a-Thon, but never to do anything like build homes. The Philadel-
phia 25-year-old was previously a cook. She said her eyes lit up when a friend told her about vol-unteering for Habitat for Human-ity through AmeriCorps.
The assignment appealed to her because it would give her a
chance to work with her hands, learning construction skills. As a woman, standing at just 5-foot-3, she felt more comfortable gaining experience through AmeriCorps and Habitat for Humanity than the traditional “union world”
environment, she said.“All of that just sounded like a
dream come true,” Font-Soloway said.
Last week’s volunteers will soon make some families’ dreams come true too. Five housing units
are expected to be completed this summer, with two families moving in this July. Six families currently live at La Fortuna.
The work that the AmeriCorps members put into Habitat for Humanity projects is valuable, staff said.
“We estimate that here in Habitat, having AmeriCorps members onsite helps us to lever-age the volunteer base that we can have about threefold,” said Andy Varyu, local Habitat director of the AmeriCorps partnership. “So we have about three times as many volunteers that we can manage because of AmeriCorps members leading small crews than we could if it was just our own staff alone.”
AmeriCorps is a feder-ally funded program that places people, 18 and older, into one year service commitments with orga-nizations like Habitat for Human-ity. Anyone can volunteer with Habitat for Humanity. For more information about the Habitat for Humanity of Seattle-King County afiliate, which is headquartered in Renton, visit www.habitatskc.org.

405/167 meeting set for talbot HillThe Washington State
Department of Transportation is hosting a public meeting
Tuesday in the Talbot Hill neighborhood to discuss plans for the I-405 - state Route 167 Interchange Direct Connector
Project.The project will involve the
taking of some land and at least two houses in the neighborhood.The project entails a new flyover
ramp connecting the express toll lanes on SR 167 with carpool
lanes on I-405 in Renton. The new highway-to-highway
connection will resolve weaving issues that occur today at this
interchange, reducing traffic delays and the likelihood of
collisions.Through this project, WSDOT
will acquire several Talbot Hill properties and reconstruct
portions of local streets. WSDOT will provide attendees
details such as proposed plans, visualizations, and specifics
about the acquisition and relocation process.
Presently WSDOT has not received funding for the project,
but has received funding to complete preliminary
engineering and for property acquisition.
The public meeting is scheduled for 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. June 4 at Talbot Hill Elemenatry School,
2300 Talbot Road S.For more information,

Mayor Denis Law will officially ring the bell at the Renton Farmers Market at 3 p.m. Tuesday to kick off this year’s market season in Renton.
“We are excited to be celebrating another great season of the downtown Farmers Market,” Law said in a press release. “We couldn’t support this suc-cessful program without
the generosity of private contributors, volunteers and vendors who make the farmers market in Renton so spectacular.”
New Farmers Market coordinator, Carrie Olson, comes to the City of Renton from Enumclaw where she created the Enumclaw Chocolate Festival and as-sisted with the King County Fair.
“I have always loved visit-ing local farmers markets and I am excited to have the opportunity to work in Renton,” said Olson.
Free parking is available for two-hours in the City Center Garage. The Renton Farmers Market is spon-sored by the City of Renton with help from volunteers
at the Piazza Renton.Those interested may

The collapse of the Interstate 5 bridge over the Skagit River last week was yet another reminder of the urgent need for transportation investment in our region. With little or no funding from the federal government, it’s critical for us to find ways to invest and maintain our transportation infrastructure – not only to ensure our safety but to create jobs, retain our businesses, make our ports competitive, and maintain the quality of life vital to the success of Renton and our state.
Our transportation system is on the brink of crisis. Interstate 405 (I-405) is the most gridlocked freeway in our area. If we don’t add capacity to I-405 and fix the interchange at I-405 and state Route 167, we will continue to have the most congested interchange and freeway cor-ridor in the state. The economic impact of this congestion is tremendous.
According to WSDOT, 2.95 mil-lion vehicle hours of delay occur each year on I-405 at a cost of $70.8 million to the local economy.
I-405 is not our only problem – city streets are deteriorating, county roads are in urgent need of maintenance, and state highways are in desperate need of repair. The I-5 bridge is only one of numerous structures ranked as “deficient” and in need of repair. Additional routes and hours are planned to be cut by our transit agencies and we have an aging ferry system. Critical gaps in sidewalk and bicycle facilities make it difficult for children to get to school safely, and the list goes on.
Despite being identified as critical for the economic vitality of our region, construction on
I-405 has not been fully funded.But this year, we have a real opportunity to
add capacity to I-405, and to move forward. A broad coalition of stakeholders – business, labor, environmentalists, and local elected leaders - have been working together and ALL agree that we need to take action now.
Gov. Inslee, House Transportation Chair-woman Judy Clibborn and legislative leaders from both parties have come up with a proposal that addresses I-405, provides funding and op-tions for local communities, and tackles some of our other most pressing challenges. Their plan is to maintain what we have, protect jobs and our economy, and support transit and local trans-portation investment.
This “Connecting Washington” package (HB 1954/HB 1955), proposed by Rep. Clibborn, calls for an investment of $9.5 billion over 12 years. This plan would invest in our roads, provide funding to improve freight mobility and relieve traffic congestion, and provide funding for local governments to protect and upgrade
local roads, transit and make critical safety improvements.
For Renton, this transportation package is well worth supporting. Along with funding for I-405 and the I-405/SR-167 interchange, Renton would receive nearly $4 million over 12 years plus additional grant funding to help with desperately needed local roads maintenance, and King County Metro would receive funds to avert significant transit service cuts. There would also be additional grant funding to help with our local roads.
It is not an option to do nothing. If we want our businesses to stay, create and grow jobs and turn our economy around, we have to invest in our transportation system.
We need to act now and ask the state Legisla-ture to put aside their differences and invest in the future of our region.

Hummingbirds still missing from Victoria Park
I have been following this story (“Where have the birds gone?” Renton Reporter, Feb. 22, 2013) since it first appeared. I have also, since being made aware of it, seen an overwhelming lack of hummingbirds in my yard. I initially attributed this decline to some ongoing activity in April while I had some work done. Since then I have seen one hummer!
I live in Victoria Park, which has a greenbelt which runs though it where many of these
birds nest(ed). We have a small protected area between the properties behind us that was left to nature as the hummingbirds were nesting there for the last eight years. They came each day on a regular schedule, flying and diving from the neighbors’ feeders and plantings to ours, and back again from sunrise to dusk.
We have seen goldfinches and sparrows but certainly the variety of birds has dropped drasti-cally since this time last year.
I would then ask as well, Where have all the birds gone? Predators? Likely not, since the only predator of birds were the neighborhood cats, but the coyote(s) got most of them last year.
And, if we did have a mid to large predator, surely the rabbits that live in the greenbelt would be gone as well, and they are quite active right now.
In closing, it appears that Mr. Oulette’s neigh-borhood of Rolling Hills is not the only one where the birds are missing. It may not be the meters, but something is certainly amiss, and if not the meters, then what?
And I, for one, miss the birds.

police officer on patrol can pull up a cam-era image of a park to view at any time to see if there is trouble. Or, if the officer gets a report of a large crowd at a public space, there is usually a video feed available to check to see if it is a problem.
Radke said while the new camera sys-tems have the ability to zoom in very close to allow police to identify individuals, the city cameras are not tied into any sort of facial-recognition database.
“It’s not quite as good as you’ll see in Vegas,” he said with a laugh.
The cameras proved their worth for the city last week, when a fight turned into a shooting at Liberty Park on Thursday eve-ning. The city has several cameras around the park.
“It all occurred under the eyes of a cam-era,” Radke said.
An officer currently assigned to light duty pulled up the camera feed on her computer and helped direct other officers arriving on the scene.
“She provided some really useful infor-mation,” Radke said.
Police were able to rewind the video footage from the incident at the park to identify suspects, as well as the vehicles they had arrived in and the people they had arrived with. Police were also able to locate a suspect running from the park due to a description provided by the officer watching the feed, as well as tying a vehicle left behind at the park to a suspect who was seen getting out of it prior to the event.
“It’s awesome,” Radke said of the ability to rewind an incident and watch how it began. “It’s an amazing tool.”
But Radke said the city also takes the
responsibility of having the cameras placed throughout town very seriously, making sure they point only at public areas and not into surrounding homes and businesses.
“They’re positioned carefully,” he said, adding that the public works department has been integral in helping place and aim
the cameras. “They put a lot of effort and thought into it.
“I wouldn’t want a camera pointed at my house either,” he said.
Radke said the top priority for the de-partment as the system expands is making sure they are pointed at public areas only, a focus that comes straight from the top.
“We want to make sure it’s recording just public areas,” said Mayor Denis Law, adding that the privacy of citizens in their homes is his top concern regarding the use of video equipment.
“I don’t want cameras pointed in people’s lanai,” Law said.
Law said the cameras obviously don’t solve all of the public safety problems but said it was “no question” they are no ad-ditional tool in the “battle against the bad guys.”
Radke said the city’s camera program is designed to continue to expand and in the future, he expects police officers on bicycles to be able to access the video feeds from mobile devices.
“We’re trying to ID people who are com-mitting criminal acts on public property,” Law said. “I think it provides another bit of protection as a deterrent and a valuable tool for detectives.”
A sign at Piazza Renton notifies pedestrians and drivers that activities in the area are being recorded. The city has approximately 60 cameras in public areas, including parks. BRian Beckley, Renton Reporter

The following information was compiled from Renton Police Department case reports.
By Dean a. RaDFORD
A road-rage incident on the afternoon of May 18 on Rainier Avenue South involved two convicted felons and a gun being shown but ended without any arrests.
All those involved are from Kent.The incident began at about 2:40 p.m. when one of the
participants swung wide while turning north onto Rainier Avenue from Grady Way, going into the lane where the other participant was waiting at a red light.
The two male drivers exchanged verbal and visual ges-tures and ended up in a parking lot near Walmart. Nearby
officers heard the sound of multiple vehicle horns and soon discovered the two men fighting.
One of the combatants yelled that the other one had a gun; officers determined it was a starter pistol that looked like a handgun.
The two were allowed to leave as the man with the gun was possibly was trying to protect himself. However, a case involving him was sent to prosecutors for review.
Dog gets owner arrestedAn officer on an emphasis patrol cited an Arizona man
May 14 for walking his Chihuahua “Louie” in Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park, where pets aren’t allowed, then transported him to the Kent City Jail on arrest warrants.
The citation came after City of Renton parks officials
have reported an increasing number of park visitors ignor-ing the posted no-pets signs at the park.
The man turned over custody of Louie to a woman with him before he was taken to Kent. He had one no-bail war-rant from Kent and several others.
Gun found in teen disturbanceOfficers responding to a disturbance involving several
teenagers the night of May 14 near the old Renton City Hall found a gun under a vehicle.
The gun was found when a male not involved in the dispute asked if he could drive away. The handgun was a .45-caliber semi-automatic.
The disturbance started when some in the group started “throwing gang signs.” Officers were told that one of the teens said he had a gun.
The report was for information only because none of the teens involved actually saw a gun.
Woman punched in noseA 29-year-old woman suffered a punched nose May 13
on Williams Avenue North when she and her ex-boyfriend argued over payment for a traffic ticket.
A neighbor called 911 after hearing a woman scream and seeing a man running away. The woman was still in her car when officers arrived, her nose bleeding profusely.
The woman told officers the 27-year-old ex-boyfriend from Seatac owed her money for a ticket he received and for failing to return a car she rented. An infant was in a car seat in the back seat; the woman told officers she had just broken up with the man after a six-year relationship. The infant is theirs.
The woman told officers she didn’t want the ex-boyfriend prosecuted, but she did want him to get help. He was issued a citation for fourth-degree assault – domestic violence.
no arrests in road rage
...obituariesDr. William P. “Mitch” Hungate
Dr. William P. “Mitch” Hungate, 61, died April 13, 2013 in an avalanche on Granite Mountain, Snoqualmie Pass, WA.
He was born November 25, 1951 in Ridgewood, NJ and moved to the Pacific Northwest with his family in 1956. Mitch graduated from Sammamish H.S. in 1970 continuing his education at the University of Washington completing both his undergraduate and dental school programs. Mitch told stories of his seven summers in Alaska cooking for the cannery workers to earn his way through University. He passed the Dental Board Exam in June of 1978 and went on to an internship in the Navy in Norfolk, VA where he served in the Public Health Sector as a Lieutenant DDS.
Mitch practiced dentistry in Renton for 34 years. He enjoyed his patients, friends, colleagues and community, winning their trust and esteem. During these years Mitch continued his affiliation with the UW; he was recognized as an Associate Professor, volunteering his time helping third and fourth year students in the dental clinic. Teaching came naturally to him. He was an avid Husky fan, never missing a season of football games.
Mitch was a member of The Knights of Columbus and a member of The Renton Rotary Club, serving as president in 1984. He received the Paul Harris Fellowship Award.
An accomplished athlete all his life, Mitch was encouraged to compete in a full Ironman Triathlon and found that he excelled at it. He won slots to the World Championship Ironman in Kona in 2006, 2007 and 2011. He also won admission to the World Championship Half Ironman in Clearwater, FL for two consecutive years and again in 2011 in Las Vegas.
Mountain climbing was his heart’s delight. It was a mutual love of the mountains that drew him and his wife, Marilynn, together some 17 years ago. Mitch climbed many of the world’s greatest mountains: Aconcagua, McKinley, Kilimanjaro, Mt. Kenya, Pico de Orizaba, the Matterhorn, Mt. Blanc, Mt. Whitney, Mt. Assiniboine and the major peaks in WA and OR. He climbed Mt. Rainier over a dozen times including two one-day ascents by different routes. The North Cascades were his playground and he mentored people in the sport as he did with triathlons, dentistry and other fields that gave him joy.

So let’s recount. My husband Paul and I have four children— Sophie 12, Amelia 9, Patrick 5, Ty, 3, and we are expecting our fifth child, a boy, due Aug. 2!
A fifth child has a much different re-action than the arrival of the first — but for our family, no less significant.
It’s actually ironic because if someone would have told me I was going to have five children, I wouldn’t have believed them. When I was a kid, I never even babysat!
Most people never believe me when I say that.
I’m sure as you are reading this you are no doubt thinking the same thing.
But it’s true. Ask my mother, who will readily tell you that when I was a kid, I wanted absolutely nothing to do with babies. I never even played with dolls — my favorite “doll” was a stuffed Pink Panther my dad won for me at a carnival.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a writer. And when I got older and into college that love turned into a deep de-sire to write the “great American novel.” And, judging the lives of the famous writers I had encountered on the page (Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Joyce) that par-ticular goal seemed to require a certain kind of troubled and somewhat tortured soul to get the job done.
Writing was an endeavor to be taken very seriously and not for the faint of heart.
To be taken seriously my novel needed to have depth and be filled to
the brim with childhood suffering and angst. And at the end of said suffer-ing and angst I would be rewarded with a million-dollar book deal from a respected New York publisher. And, in no version of this vision of myself as a famous writer did I ever see babies and diapers.
So what changed? Me.Well, actually the birth of our first
daughter, Sophie. I had no idea how much I would love being a mom.
I still wrote that book. And, between those pages of writing, rewriting and rewrit-ing again, something fantastic happened: I met myself on the
page.And it was there on the page, during
all those late nights writing while rock-a-by-babying and in between changing diapers that I learned what a very soli-tary process writing a novel can be. And by the end, I didn’t want to write about angst and suffering.
I wanted to write about creativity and wonder. I wanted to express the joy I was experiencing out-and-about on the local adventures I was sharing with my kids. Whether it was tromping around the Pacific Northwest woods and beaches or cooking up culinary adven-tures in the kitchen.
I also realized I wanted to be a part of
and contribute to my local community in a deeper, more meaningful way.
I was more than OK with someone else writing the “great American novel.” I wanted to write something that people of all ages (both male and female) could relate too and actually want to continue reading — whether they had kids or not.
As luck would have it, the Renton Reporter was game.
Two and a half years after my very first column in the Renton Reporter, I am still so thankful that editor Dean Radford and Publisher Ellen Morrison believed in that vision.
From the beginning they have given me total creative freedom to write about the unique people and places in Renton our family has been fortunate enough to meet.
Rentonites have enjoyed reading about our family’s tours to the Cedar Grove Landfill, salmon hatchery, a local tree house, cooking-with-kids web series at IKEA and so many other adventures.
And the positive feedback we have received from the community has been incredible.
A personal note of appreciation from the mayor for a story he enjoyed read-ing. A thank you from Sibling House, a local charity that received a grant from the Renton Rotary as a result of some-one within the organization reading my column. A local father who has volunteered as an art docent for seven

What happens when a nervous teacher prepares for the first day of school in the wee hours of the morn-
ing before the first class begins? Schoolhouse Rock songs from the TV (obvi-ously from the cable 70s re-run channel) and self-discovery through imagina-tion help calm the teacher’s nerves and get M. Miser ready to teach everything
from the “3”s to Gravity! Sing along to old favorites, or make them new ones, as M. Miser rocks out and rolls on to great confidence and lesson planning for the day ahead.

gets an opportunity to present his plan to include art in all of our Renton elementary schools, to name a few.
Following my childhood dream of being a writer has not led me to fame and fortune.
But it has led me to something much more interesting and meaningful: doing what I love, which is cookin’ and trippin’ around the Pacific Northwest with my kids and writing about our adventures together.
So thanks for your support!And I look forward to meeting you here on the page
each month in my Renton Reporter column, Life in the City.
As well as our latest adventure: a new family series I will be hosting for popular local magazine ParentMap which will come out in June.
And in the spirit of childhood creativity and wonder I say, “Let the wild rumpus begin!”
I love suggestions! If you know of people or places in Renton that surprise, delight and inspire the community, drop me a line at [email protected]. Also fol-low Carolyn on her blog, www.pippimamma.com.

Anticavity Tip: Water consumption is the most effective way to slow cavity progression in children because of its natural ability to reduce intraoral acidity and cleanse the mouth. How much water is enough? As a general rule, the amount of water your child should consume (ounces) a day is equal to half their total body weight in pounds. Example: 28 pound child
= 14 ounces or 2 cups; 46 pound child = 23 ounces or 3 cups. For more information about how to keep your child’s mouth healthy, visit us online at www.akidsplacedentistry.com

The Seattle International Film Festival beat last year's ticket sales at its Renton venue on Monday – and it still had two days to run.
Through Monday night, 1,695 tickets had been sold to watch the films at the IKEA Performing Arts Center at Renton High School. Last year's total ticket sales were 1,607.
The opening-night screening of "Touchy Feely" May 23 drew about 500 people to the IPAC, followed by the gala at the Renton Pavilion Event Center, more than last year.
At the screening, Director Lynn Shelton and members of the cast and crew talked about the film and answered audience questions.
Films that did particularly well were Friday night's "The East," with 282 tickets sold, and Monday night's "C.O.G.," with 235 tickets sold.
The festival ended its Renton run Wednesday with “Cold War,” which was also well-received.
SIFF-Renton started about a week later than last year, giving SIFF and the Renton community more time to pro-mote the films being shown, said Preeti Shridhar, Renton's deputy public affairs administrator.
