Should fire service go from RFD to RFA?

BY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

Voters in Renton may face a choice in near future to remove the fire department from city books in favor of creating a Re-gional Fire Authority, with an ability to create its own revenue stream to pay for operation.

Though still in its infancy and needing voter approval, city officials hope making the switch to an authority will free up millions of dollars in the city budget to help meet projected gaps between revenue and expenses.

However, creating a fire authority would loosen city control over the department and operations, which is the choice voters will have to consider should the idea ever make it to a ballot.

“For me it makes economic sense,” said Councilman Ed Prince, who chairs the city’s RFA Planning Committee. “But if the voters don’t want it, the voters won’t vote for it.”

Authorized by a 2004 state law, a regional fire authority is a special-purpose tax district created by voters that combines at least two existing fire districts into a single entity. The boundar-ies would be coextensive to the boundaries of the entities that join.

In Renton’s case, the Authority would be a combination of Renton Fire Department and King County Fire District No. 25, which presently contracts with Renton for service. King County Fire District No. 20, which serves Skyway, is also part of the discussions, but is presently a non-voting observer, as determined at a recent planning meeting.

The process, however, is just getting under way. For the city and the fire department, the key to creating an

authority is a dedicated, sustainable funding stream for the department.

“From a department standpoint, it gives us a budget author-ity,” said Chief Mark Peterson recently. “We’re not reliant on the city budget, we’ll be reliant on our own funds.”

“As we look out ahead, the idea of trying to find a more predictable funding source for fire service is something the council needs to consider,” said Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington.

Covington said the administration began talking to the

ELECTION 2014: Voters back incumbents

BY DEAN A. RADFORD

[email protected]

Renton’s state and federal legislative representation didn’t change at all follow-ing the initial tally in Tuesday’s general election.

There was one open seat in the city’s Olympia delegation. Pramila Jayapal was easily outdistancing fellow Democrat Louis Watanabe to replace long-time state Sen. Adam Kline in the 37th District with 66 percent of the vote.

There were no local races or measures on Renton ballots in this election.

The Tuesday night results were the only available to meet the Renton Reporter’s print deadline. The latest results are avail-able online at kingcounty.gov.

The Elections Department will update results by 4:30 p.m. most weekdays until election certification on Nov. 25. Results may not be updated every day if there

Directors, producers, actors and film enthusiasts turned out for the open-ing gala of the 2014 Seattle South Asian Film Festival in Renton, on Halloween night.

Some attendees made their appearance on the red carpet at the Renton Pavilion Event Center for the very first time, but for others Renton was a famil-iar and welcoming stop on their film tour.

Puja Maewal, director of the award-winning short film “Jaya” (India, 2014) was excited to be in South Seattle or Renton for the first time ever.

“I’m very excited; it’s like a cool Halloween-slash-film party,” said Maewal.

Attendees were dressed in both Halloween and traditional cultural outfits at the gala.

Hearing great things about Seattle, Maewal was also excited to attend because she said this par-ticular festival is famous for its daring programming, which is very different from other South Asian festivals.

Her film “Jaya” is the story of a teenage girl in a street gang in Mumbai who encounters a man she thinks is her long lost father. The film was shot on

the streets of Mumbai with “untrained kid actors from the slums.”

“They were really pas-sionate about acting even though they’d never really been in front of a camera; so it was pretty fun” Mae-wal said.

Currently she is working on a feature-length version of “Jaya” and will soon be looking for financing. The film has been screening for a year all over cities in the U.S. and will start to screen internationally in Hun-gry, Mumbai, Delhi and Calcutta.

Also screening with “Jaya” at the opening gala was “FU377” (UK, 2014), “My Dear Americans” (USA, 2013), “Shame,” (Canada, 2014), “Ravel” (Afghanistan, 2014) and “What Remains” (USA, 2013).

Filmmaker Monish Gangwani, of Bellevue, was happy to have the film festival screening so close to home. His experimental art film “The Roar,” about a suppressed artist, trying to find his freedom of expres-sion, will screen at Roxy Cinema in Renton Nov. 8.

“I’m just so glad that we’re having the festival here,” said Gangwani. “I’m a filmmaker so I know that through SIFF we’ve done stuff over here before.

I’m just really excited that SSAFF is here.”

Sharing in the excitement was director and producer Jane Charles, who’s been to Renton before with the Se-attle International Film Fes-tival (SIFF) for the movie “Fat Kid Rules the World.” Charles was at the SSAFF event to promote and screen the film “Sold.” The film features actors Gillian Anderson, David Arquette and Tillotama Shome.

It won the “Best Narra-

tive Feature” at the Albu-querque Film Festival and the audience award at the London Indian Film Festi-val. “Sold” is a story about a young girl from Nepal who’s trafficked into India.

“I’m really excited for our film to be here,” said Charles. “’Sold’ actually opened the L.A. Indian film festival and several other Asian film festivals amid the response has been amazing.”

Charles was excited for

other films showing at SSAFF saying that the films screened here were some of the best international films.

“Renton’s great; I was very excited that ‘Sold’ had a screening in Renton,” said Charles.

The opening gala at-tendees watched the screening, dined on food from Naan-n-Curry and danced to Bollywood and Bhangra music provided by Portland’s DJ Anjali and the Incredible Kid.

council about the idea of an RFA earlier this year and received the go ahead to pursue it as a way to help stabilize the city’s budget. Because of the 1 percent cap on property tax revenues the voters placed on municipalities through an initiative, cities like Renton have been struggling to make ends meet as expenditures rise quicker than rev-enues.

This year, Covington said the city’s new B&O tax helps stabilize the budget, but that will only cover the gap for so long and something else will need to be done in the future.

The fire department’s current budget is about $24 million with the majority of costs coming in salaries and benefits. Presently, the fire department is funded through the city’s General Fund.

Both Peterson and Covington also said a fire author-ity could help the department make up some ground on capital projects that need to be completed.

“I think that as we get into it, this could also provide us with resources to enhance our service,” Covington said.

“We know we need to build a new station out in Ken-nydale,” added Peterson as an example.

So far, planning for a fire authority is still in its infancy. There have been two meetings of the planning committee so far and details are still being studied and worked out.

There are several ways a fire authority can be put togeth-

er and representatives from the various districts, as well as members of the administration and the City Council are presently looking into what shape an RFA might take in Renton.

Advising the committee is attorney Brian Snure, who helped set up the Regional Fire Authority in Kent. Snure helped put together a rough draft of a proposal - one that did not contain any details, but simply provided a structure for an RFA - for the committee, which he presented during last week’s meeting.

Among the options discussed were funding sources for an authority. There are two ways it can be funded: com-pletely from property taxes or through a combination of property taxes and something called a “fire benefit charge.”

A fire benefit charge would mean a lower tax rate, but an additional cost based on a formula based on the size and type of structure and mitigated with discounts based on fire suppression equipment.

According to Covington, the residents presently pay about $1.85 per $1,000 assessed home value for fire service. An RFA could levy a rate of $1 per $1,000 assessed value plus a fire benefit charge to meet up to 60 percent of oper-ating costs.

However, if an authority is created, the money presently collected for the fire department would not be eliminated, but most likely redirected to another part of the city bud-get.

“There would be an increased cost,” Covington admitted. “What still needs to be determined is what that would be.”

The RFA planning Committee meets again Nov. 20. Cov-ington said there is no specific time frame at the moment, but the hope is to make a decision in time to go to voters before the next budget biennium, which begins in 2017.

“We’re still looking at this,” agreed Prince. “No decisions have been made yet.”

“This has to go before voters. The voters have to approve it,” Peterson said. “Ultimately, it’s their fire department.”

Created by state law in 2004, a regional fire protection service authority is a special purpose district created by the vote of the people residing in the proposed district. It is a municipal corporation and an independent taxing authority created by RCW 52.26. Its boundaries are coextensive with two or more adjacent fire protection jurisdictions.Both Kent and Auburn (Valley Regional Fore Authority) have switched to the RFA model in recent years.The next meeting of the RFA planning committee is scheduled for Nov. 20.

when officials failed to post a meeting notice for one of two hearings in the local paper. Others said they felt ignored and talked down to in their correspondence with district administration.

A few members of the public said they were so angry at the school board that they will not vote for future Renton School District levies or measures.

Renton resident and one-time City Council candidate Robin Jones hired Attorney Eric Stahfeld to address many of the same concerns other Tiffany Park residents brought forth, namely that the sale of property was “improper” because the process has been flawed, he said.

Stahfeld cited the district’s refusal to let subject experts go on the property besides the buyer, Henley USA, LLC. Stahfeld also pointed out that the district is a public institution and school board members are entrusted to make decisions on behalf of the people, something he claimed they weren’t doing based on their actions.

“You are standing in the place of voters and that’s what you’re to consider,” he said.

Tiffany Park resident David Beeden agreed with Stahfeld about the improper nature of the way the school board was proceeding and said he felt short-changed.

“I just feel that what the public has expressed has been blatantly ignored because of dollars,” Beeden said.

Erick Admick came to the meeting rep-resenting the 200 Airsoft gun enthusiasts who use the undeveloped Tiffany Park for their games. Airsoft guns fire non-metallic pellets.

“This is the perfect place where we have terrain and great neighbors around us that say, ‘hey you guys can play here,’” said Admick. “And

we all have fun…”Cynthia Garlough called the woods a

magical place, unlike anything you’d find unless you drove several hours away.

“This is our home, this is our area and we will be deeply impacted by this,” said Garlough.

Some members of the public tried to get school board members to speak on the is-sue by asking them questions from the po-dium, but school board members did not reply. This made resident Renate Beeden ask whether the gathering was an actual public hearing as advertised or a school board meeting in which board members don’t have to answer questions.

In an email interview Thursday, Sheryl Moore, assistant superintendent of district human resources, cleared up the matter.

“Interested parties may submit writ-ten or oral testimony about the subject at hand, in this case, the sale of the property located in the Tiffany Park area,” Moore wrote. “The Board ‘admits’ (into the re-cord) the evidence offered for and against the sale of the property and the advisabil-ity of the proposed sale, per the statute. The hearing is not intended for com-mentary, either for or against, by Board members, or for the Board to respond to questions.”

The next steps will be for the school board to consider the comments presented in the hearing at a future regular busi-ness meeting, which is open to the public, Moore said.

Moore was not sure when the discus-sion would be scheduled, but said the issue would be “announced as part of the regular agenda for the public business meeting as an action item.”

The City Council in Monday elected Ed Prince to be council president for 2015 and Randy Corman as president pro tem.

As council president, it will be Prince’s role to conduct the meetings and set the agendas for both the council meetings and the Committee of the Whole meet-ings that precede them.

Prince is in his first term on the council and presently serves as chair of the Plan-ning and Development committee. He will take over the president’s role from Don Persson.

Corman is the longest serving member of the City Council. He was first elected in 1994 and most recently re-elected in 2013. He has served as both council presi-dent and president pro-tem in the past, including as president last year. He pres-ently chairs the Public Safety Committee.

The president pro tem runs the meet-ing in the president’s absence.

As in the past, the votes for president

and president pro tem were not unani-mous.

Prince was elected by a 4-0 margin, with Councilman Greg Taylor abstaining. Councilmembers Terri Briere and Ar-mondo Pavone were both absent Monday.

The vote for Corman was even tighter. He was elected by a 3-2 margin with Taylor and Councilwoman Marcie Palmer both voting against.

Last year, Taylor and Councilwoman Marcie Palmer voted against Prince in the pro tem role as Taylor questioned why he had not yet been elected to a leadership position.

Prince and Corman both begin serving in their new roles in January.

The council’s Committee on Com-mittees, which includes Prince, Corman and Persson, will meet later this month to select new members for each of the council’s six subcommittees.

PSE rate reduction approved

State regulators on Monday approved a settlement agreement with Puget Sound Energy (PSE) to reduce electric rates due to reduced power-supply costs.

The Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion (UTC) approved a power-cost rate reduction of $14.9 million, approxi-mately 0.7 percent, for PSE electric customers.

The average residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt-hours would see an electric bill decrease of 0.23 percent, or $0.21 a month, for an average bill of $92.74. This amount is subject to adjustment

after the company files updated power costs for electric generation later in November.

New rates go into effect on Dec. 1, 2014.

In May, PSE asked the commission for a $9.5 million rate decrease, about 0.46 percent, to pass through reductions in projected power costs, the cost of generating electricity at the point of connection to the electric grid.

In September, the company and commission staff filed the multi-party settlement agreement along with the Public Counsel section of the state Attorney General’s Office, and the Industrial Customers of Northwest Utilities.

Bellevue-based Puget

Sound Energy provides electricity service to more than 1.1 million electric customers living in eight Washington counties: King, Pierce, Island, Kitsap, Kittitas, Skagit, Whatcom, and Thurston.

Overwhelm-ingly, these tragedies are the result of men’s violence against women. They include the woman strangled and beaten by her boyfriend and the mother murdered by her

daughter’s ex-boyfriend. These are our mothers, sisters, daughters and friends.

When violence against women makes the headlines, people often ask: “Why does she stay?” But this question

wrongly places the burden on the victim. It is time to stop asking “why does she stay?” and instead ask “why is he violent?”

October was Domestic Violence Aware-ness Month.

I am committed to leading an office that works to eliminate violence against women. Our work with stakeholders has helped pass legislation to punish offenders and empower survivors. We dedicate grant dollars to local advocacy organizations that provide services to survivors in rural com-munities. Our work will continue.

We can all do our part. Speak up when someone tells inappropriate jokes or stories. If you learn your female friends or family members are experiencing violence, let them know you are there to help. Teach your children to respect themselves and others. Do not tolerate domestic violence.

Together we can make a difference for the women in our lives. When women live without fear, our whole society benefits.

Bob Ferguson is the Washington state attorney general.

without fear

Last week’s poll results:“Do you plan on donating to a worthy cause this holiday season?”

Yes: 75% No: 25%

You said it!

It’s not breaking news to those who must drive to work each day that traffic is horrible – pos-sibly worse than we’ve ever seen. Add a little rain and a fender-bender to the equation and our transportation corridors quickly erode to

gridlock. This creates a tremendous

amount of stress and frustra-tion to commuters and has a major impact on our quality of life.

There is no easy fix. The Legislature has failed to address the funding needs of our woefully inadequate

highway system. Given the understandable focus on funding state education mandates, it’s hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel, and it’s pain-fully clear that Bertha is not the only place where progress is stalled.

In Renton, we continue to see more pressure on our roadway system as residents from Kent, Auburn, Maple Valley and Seattle snake through our community to delay entering our clogged freeway system. A recent study we conducted shows that nearly 65 percent of the cars on our city streets during peak commute hours are just passing through to avoid the freeway, making it difficult in some areas for residents to even get out of their driveways or developments.

Solving this problem won’t be easy and there are no quick fixes. And to add to this dilemma, this region is experiencing an explosion in devel-opment to house the thousands of people mov-ing to this area for a host of reasons. Developers are honing in on every piece of vacant land to put in more houses and apartment complexes.

This means more people and more cars. The

Gov. Jay Inslee has proclaimed Nov. 2-9 as Drowsy Driving Prevention Week in Washing-

ton state. While this proc-lamation is a significant step toward drowsy driving aware-ness and prevention, there is much more that needs to be done to keep this pan-demic off of our roads and highways. We must change attitudes about drowsy driv-ing first.

On Oct. 4, the Issaquah Police Department responded to a report of a vehicle that was being

driven erratically in the Issaquah Highlands. An officer quickly found the car parked in the Safeway parking lot. The driver was fast asleep. When he was woken up and interviewed, he told IPD he had been working almost 72 hours straight before he got behind the wheel of his car to go home.

While in line at the bank recently, I heard a conversation between a customer and a bank teller. The customer told of his recent extreme sports bike trip in the Cascades. He then casually said that he had been up for more than 24 hours before he drove back over Snoqualmie Pass to

state, through the Growth Management Act of 1990, requires that cities like Renton take on the population and housing demand instead of the more rural areas. But the Growth Management Act also envisioned investments in improved road capacity and public transportation systems to accommodate that growth. Unfortunately, the state and region have failed to provide these improvements.

We have local residents wondering why the city is allowing more devel-opment when nothing is being done to address the already grid-locked streets. It’s a valid question.

Our current zoning requirements were established in 1994 when Renton and most cities were willing to accept the growth and new devel-opment, in exchange for the prom-ised transportation improvements. But things have changed in the past 20 years and it’s time to revisit where more development makes sense.

In 1994, the overall assessed valua-tion of Renton was a little more than $3 billion. Today, the assessed valu-

ation is nearly $13 billion, much of it due to new develop-ment throughout the city.

There are plans already being discussed for additional multi-family rental complexes in areas where roadways cannot handle more traffic. On Monday night, the City Council agreed with my recommendation to institute a moratorium on any new multi-family development for the

next several months with the exception of two areas – the downtown corridor and the Sunset area in the Highlands — where better access to public transit exists.

We still welcome growth, new jobs and quality develop-ment in Renton. But we have a responsibility to make sure that we’re attracting the right type of development, and locating it in the right place where we can mitigate the impacts.

The moratorium is the right thing to do. This will give the Council an opportunity to review all of our current zoning policies so that we can make appropriate changes that ensure we protect, and even improve, the quality of this community for years to come.

his home in Bellevue. The some-what macho tone of the biker was as if driving while tired was also part of his extreme sport. And the teller was impressed.

A co-worker has a second job in addition to her “day job.” She mentioned that many times each week she only got around four hours of sleep each night. When she drove home from her “moon-lighting” job at two or three in the morning, she was usually very tired. But she said, “It was a straight line on the freeway,” and that she knew the way home – even when exhausted.

In 2006, our then 17-year-old daughter, Mora, nearly died from multiple fractures and a traumatic brain injury caused by a driver who was awake for 24 hours and who had fallen asleep at the wheel of her car. Several months after the accident, Mora was still in recovery and rehabilitation. Dur-ing that time, we talked with the nurses and caregivers about what caused Mora’s injuries. A few of the nurses said that they regularly work double shifts each week and drove home exhausted after being up nearly 24 hours. Even in front of our daughter, they freely said they did not want any increased

drowsy driving laws or penalties because they said caregivers were often the worst offenders.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that “cognitive impairment after being approximately 18 hours awake is similar to that of someone with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.05 percent. After about 24 hours awake, impairment is equivalent to a BAC of 0.10 percent, higher than the legal limit in all states.” Not only every driver in our state, but also our legislators and our judges need to understand the widespread seriousness of drowsy driving, and how many people are injured and killed by this pan-demic each year. Attitudes about drowsy driving need to change.

But like attitudes about drunk driving 30 years ago, like texting while driving and distracted driv-ing today, the only thing that will really change attitudes, mindsets and habits toward getting behind the wheel of a car when you have not slept for 20 or more hours is swift and sure penalties.

Before others are injured or killed by drowsy drivers, we urge our state legislators to put aside the bickering of partisan poli-tics and to beef up Washington’s reckless driving laws to include penalties if a driver injures or kills

someone after deliberately getting behind the wheel of a car after being awake over 20 to 22 hours. Or to find the vision and the guts to pass a specific drowsy driving law in Washington state like New Jersey’s “Maggie’s Law.”

Yes, in some cases, an accident caused by a driver who fell asleep at the wheel may be harder to prove than drunk driving. But drowsy driving kills, injures and shatters lives just the same as drunk driving. Just ask the survivors. Ask the family and friends of those lost or injured last month or last year from the actions of a drowsy driver. Just ask our daughter.

We want all drivers in Wash-ington to be aware of their level of fatigue or alertness before they get behind the wheel of a car . . . this week, during the busy holiday season, and throughout the year. Save a life, and get some rest.

For more information on drowsy driving, go to the National Sleep Foundation website http://drowsydriving.org and AAA Foundation’s website: https://www.aaafoundation.org\

[ DROWSY from page 6]

Laws needed to prevent driving while drowsy No drowsy how toInformation and tips to prevent drowsy driving: • Young drivers, ages 16-24, are the most likely group to be involved in a drowsy

driving accident. Men have twice as many drowsy driving crashes as women.• More than one-third of all drivers report having fallen asleep behind the wheel at

some point in their lives; more than 10 percent report having fallen asleep behind the wheel in just the past year. Besides the obvious advice to get enough sleep, what can you do to keep yourself awake if you have to be on the road:

• Bank it Up. If you know you are going on a big road trip or driving at night, get more than enough sleep (seven to nine hours) before you hit the road.

• Don’t be too rushed to arrive at your destination. Many drivers try to maximize the holiday weekend by driving at night or without stopping for breaks. It’s better to allow the time to drive alert and arrive alive.

• Use the buddy system. Just as you should not swim alone, avoid driving alone for long distances. A buddy who remains awake for the journey can take a turn behind the wheel and help identify the warning signs of fatigue

• Take a break every 100 miles or two hours. Do something to refresh yourself like getting a snack, switching drivers, or going for a run.

• Take a nap. Find a safe place to take a 15- to 20-minute nap, if you think you might fall asleep. Be cautious about excessive drowsiness after waking up.

• Avoid alcohol and medications that cause drowsiness as a side effect.• Avoid driving at times when you normally would be asleep.• Consume caffeine. The equivalent of two cups of coffee can increase alertness for

several hours.• Don’t rely on stimuli from the radio and/or having the AC turned up or an open

window to keep you awake. • Certain physical symptoms should alert a driver to get off the road because of his

or her fatigue level. These include: constant yawning, trouble focusing visually, drifting out of your lane, suddenly realizing that you can’t remember the last stretch of road traveled, or actually falling asleep and waking up after having continued to steer the car down the road.

The Shaw family is partnering with Gov. Jay Inslee’s office, with the Washington State Patrol, with WSDOT, with the King County Sheriff’s Office, AAA of Washington, the AAA Foundation, the National Sleep Foundation and several other law enforcement and traffic safety groups around the state to get the word out on this important public safety issue.

JAMCO Comedy Series producer Jamal Harrington sees a little of his former hometown of Brooklyn, N.Y., in Renton, believe it or not.

“I feel like here there’s something for everybody, you know what I’m say-ing?” he said in a recent interview, remarking on the diversity of people and things to do downtown Renton and at The Land-ing.

After previous success in the venue, he’s bringing his comedy showcase to the Renton Civic Theatre for the fourth time starting at 8 p.m., on Nov. 15.

It’s a show featuring well-known regional talent, with headliner Ralph Porter, who’s appeared on BET and at Seattle’s Comedy Underground. Porter was also voted King 5’s Best of Western Washington’s “Funniest Local Comedian” and is a regular at Tacoma’s Jazzbones.

Harrington describes Porter as “a strong head-liner, very funny guy,” who’s been performing for 25 years and is like a mentor to him.

The show also features Monica Nevi, of Renton, whom Harrington calls one of the funniest women in Seattle.

“She talks about herself,” he said. “I guess it’s like

you’re in a car with her and she’ll drive you to all these weird places and you’re just there for the ride.”

Comedian Brendan Kelley is the special guest, who performs regularly on Capitol Hill and was once a Saturday Night Live intern.

“He’s out there; he has a lot of ideas in his head and he finds a way to make those ideas work for him,” said Harrington. “When

you see him on stage you think ‘OK, make me laugh’ and when he’s done you’re surprised.”

Harrington, who will also be the host of the show, describes his own comedy as hopefully relat-ing to everybody at some point during the show.

“It’s not just about rac-

ism, look at the world, the world is more than just (racism),” said Harrington. “We’re in relationships or unfortunately we’re in re-lationships, or we hate our jobs, or we like our jobs... Every comic has a thing, mine is everything.”

He likes Renton as a location for his series be-cause it draws people from Seattle, Tacoma and points in between. With comedy shows at the Local 907 and DeLancey’s on Third, Harrington feels Renton could really make a name for itself with comedic entertainment.

“There’s no comedy club per se in Renton, you know, so it’s just something that we basically created,” he said. “I feel like we’re bring-ing something to Renton; we’ve built something.”

The Renton Civic Theatre is located at 507 S. Third St. Tickets for the Nov. 15 show are $15 and available at rentoncivicthe-atre.org. Doors open at 7 p.m., the show starts at 8 p.m.

Joint tenancy is a form of ownership in which two or more persons own an asset jointly. Upon the death of one, the ownership of the asset is presumed to pass to the surviving joint owner(s) without probate.

Sometimes joint tenancy is useful. But it may be inconsistent with the provisions of the Will and create uncertainty or conflict after death.

In other cases, joint tenancy can disrupt a plan to minimize estate taxes.

Protect your right to distribute your estate as you intend in a cost-effective manner. Consult an estate planning attorney.

A Salute to our Veterans

BY TRACEY COMPTON

[email protected]

When Paula Peacock discovered a manuscript from her late father, Clay-ton Peacock III, it was like a gift she received from him. Now having self-published his historical fictitious ac-count of a solider’s journey in Vietnam, the process has ignited a passion in her to work with veterans.

The youngest of five children, Paula had never heard of her father’s book until she was 13. He was a special forces officer in Vietnam and he wrote the book in the mid-1980s after he had retired from the military. Clayton served two consecutive tours in Vietnam as a captain and also served in Germany and in numerous assignments in the U.S., before retiring as a major from Fort Lewis, Washington.

Clayton passed away in 1994 from what would later be ruled health complica-tions due to exposure to agent orange and injuries sustained during Vietnam.

“I was so excited when I heard about (the book) be-cause I was so young when he wrote it that everybody didn’t think to bring it up again,” said Paula.

The book wasn’t a secret, she said, but it was something that was tucked away for a long time because her father lacked the funds to publish it. Her dad always thought if it was published it would be something that the family could benefit from the proceeds.

The book, “Di-Wee: A story of Vietnam,” is historical fiction based on a lot of events that lead up to the Tet Offensive, a wave of communist attacks on allied forces and the battles that followed during the Vietnam War. It is the story of a young soldier’s journey of struggling with what’s going on back in the U.S.,

politically with the support of the nation and the war itself.

“Our dad, he was a natu-ral teacher,” said Paula. “He has a way of saying things

and explaining things that help a lot of people understand on a bigger level.”

The book is rich with details, which is what Clayton was all about according to his daughters. According to two of his daughters, Paula and Anne Marie, he called himself not a

historian, but a “hysterian,” he was so obsessed with details.

“I have learned so much about the Vietnam era and recognize the importance that there is still a lot of understanding and healing to be done from that time in our history,” said Paula. “It’s my passion to create opportunities for other Vietnam veterans, like my

father, to have a platform to tell the stories of their personal experiences.”

Paula hopes to cre-ate a foundation with the proceeds of the book to help other veterans tell and publish their stories. Just as society has learned a lot of details about the Civil War, World Wars I and II through letters, there is still much to be learned from present day soldiers’ letters and writings said Anne Marie.

“I was in the Iraq War in 2004 to 2005 and we all journaled,” she said. “So even up to current day, it’s like we know. We’re a part of history here and we just journal; it’s a good release.”

Their father kept numer-ous journals in addition to the manuscript he wrote and chronicled everything from movies he watched to books he’d read.

In 2012, the family received a settlement from the Department of Veterans Affairs as a result of proving Clayton’s death was directly related to agent orange exposure and injuries sustained while serving in Vietnam. The family can now add his name to the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington D.C. and plans to do the same in Renton.

“The biggest thing for me was just to get it done for my dad,” said Paula of editing and publishing the book, which took her seven years. “But the feeling that I have coming full circle with it has been priceless.”

“Di-Wee: A story of Vietnam,” by Clayton W. Peacock III is available for $14.95, in paperback and soon in e-book form, at www.third-bird.com.

Father’s unpublished book inspires woman to work with vets

Harvest

November is the start of the winter season and time to put the garden to bed. Cut back, chop up, haul off and in general clean up any perennials or annuals that are yellow and frost-bitten.

This is also a good time to start a compost pile in a hidden corner of the landscape. Just layer brown mate-rial (brown leaves, bark chips, soil) with green material (grass clippings, green leaves, green weeds) and let it all rot.

You can hurry the decomposing by chopping the material into small pieces, covering the pile to keep it warm and by adding air to the process either by turning the contents or giving it all a good poke with a sharp stick.

Some gardeners crank up the heat of their compost pile by using hollow metal pipes stuck into the center of the pile to add air. Every few weeks they wiggle the pipes or remove and then poke them back into the pile in a different spot. Anytime you add a channel of air to your compost pile it helps to turn the garden garbage into garden gold.

Q. I grow vegetables in raised beds. Must I uproot all the old

tomatoes, bean and squash plants now or can I wait until spring to clean up? B.L. Puyallup

A. You can always imitate Mother Nature and let your summer

bounty rot back into the earth with the winter rains. The advantage of a fall clean-up is that you will be removing any plants with disease or insect problems that could overwinter.

However the advantage of a more laid back approach to garden clean-up is that you are not disturbing the tiny little soil critters or organisms that add tilth to your soil. Some gardeners combine the two methods and layer compost right on top of old plants. If you have a weed problem in your vegetable bed then fall is the time to pull and remove those summer weeds roots and all.

Q. Will a compost pile attract rats? Anon

A. No, a properly made compost pile heats up quickly and does

not supply food for rats and mice. You must be sure to never add meat, bones, grease or other difficult to break down kitchen debris to a compost pile.

Q. Can I make my own raised beds by piling up grass clippings and

leaves into mounds? Do I need to add soil as well or will my garden clippings and fall foliage turn into soil? S. Email

A. You can easily create your own raised beds with plant material

that composts over the winter but to make these piles most favorable to growing vegetables use equal amounts of soil and aged manure to help break down the plant material.

Remember that mounds of compost-ing material will shrink after just one winter. Your original four foot tall raised beds can end up as a mound of soil less than one foot high. Put the most course

or woody material down first, layer green grass clippings, then brown leaves and cap it all off with at least a six inch layer of aged manure and garden soil.

Lindbergh bests Renton to take top 2A seedBY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

The Lindbergh Eagles ruined Renton’s homecoming Friday night and earned a top seed in the 2A district playoffs in the process, with a 21-0 win over the Indians at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Penalties hurt Renton all day, costing them yardage on both sides of the ball and even taking them out of field goal range during one series in the third quarter.

The win means Lindbergh earns the top seed in the Seamount 2A division as the teams head to the postseason. Because of a Foster win as well on Fri-day, Renton will be the No. 3 seed as the Bulldogs take the No. 2 spot.

Because of its seeding, Renton had a short week and played Sammamish on Tuesday (see page 13).

Lindbergh will host Orting, who finished 4-5 overall in the South Puget Sound League, at 7 p.m. Friday at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Hazen tennis finishes undefeated season, sends two to statesBY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

After completing an undefeated, Seamount championship season, the Hazen boys tennis team will occupy two of the five spots for our area in the state tourna-ment in May.

Gregg Furumasu heads to states as the top seed from the area and Bruno Hernandez-Sotres took home fourth place for the Highland-

ers.As a team, the

Highlanders finished second overall in this past weekend’s district tournament, earning 12 points and finishing behind North Thurston.

Coach Gail Ellis said in an email that she was proud of how her team pushed each other all season on their way to a perfect 13-0 overall record and a 10-0 finish in the league.

The Hazen Highlanders soccer team season came to an end Tuesday night with a 3-0 opening round playoff loss to Prairie at Sunset Chev Stadium in Sumner.

The two teams played a

tight match that was anyone’s game until late, when Prairie pushed through three goals, all after the 58th minute. According to coach Ken Mat-thews, his team still played well after the first goal, but the second, just eight minutes later on a ball “bouncing around the box” was a “deal-

breaker” for his team.Despite the loss, Mattthews

praised his team’s play.“That was our best physical

effort of the season tonight,” he said in an email. “We were fighting for every ball and didn’t back off their physical play.

“I’m very proud of how the girls played,” he said.

It was an up-and-down season for the Highlanders, whose difficult schedule put the team in a hole at the be-ginning of the season. Hazen battled back through the sea-son, however, earning a play-off spot and just missing out on a third straight Seamount League championship.

Clayton’s 4 TDs lead Renton past Totems in opening roundBY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

Elijah Clayton ran for two touchdowns and threw for two more on Tuesday as the Renton Indians easily dispatched the Sammamish Totems 41-14 in their opening- round playoff game at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Ijazz Rashid caught both touchdown passes and Zach Hassen added a pair of

field goals for the Indians. Maurice Hunter also had a rushing touchdown for Renton in the win.

The Indians jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first quarter on a 15-yard pass from Clayton to Rashid. In the second, Has-son added his two field goals and Clayton picked up his first rushing touchdown before Sammamish broke off a 45-yard touchdown run of their own to get on the board.

The teams headed to the half with Renton up 20-7.

The only scoring in the third quarter came from Sammamish, but Renton took back over in the final frame as Clayton had a 1-yard run for paydirt and followed it up with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Rashid. Hunter’s 48-yard touchdown run sealed the deal for the Indians.

Clayton led the way for Renton all day with 180 yards passing and an additional 90 on the ground.

The win means Renton advances to play North Kitsap this weekend.

High school football expert Ryland Spencer, Washington analyst for Northwest Elite Index, offers the following assessment of Both Lindbergh and Renton’s playoff chances this season:

“It will be interesting to see what Lind-bergh can do. I saw them earlier in the season in a game against Cascade Chris-tian. They showed a lot of potential, and appear to be playing some of their best football lately.

“They have been able to get D’Angelo Faust the ball and let him make plays. Last week he had 258 on 17 carries and two touchdowns. He was close to 200 yards the week before, as well. If they continue to get that kind of production from him, they could win a few games.

“I think they should have no problem with Orting this week, but the week after should be tough with either Archbishop

Murphy or Squalicum. Get through that and they will most likely face No. 1 Tumwa-ter.

“Either way, they could play a few more games.

“Renton is going to have a very tough opening game. North Kitsap is one of the more underrated teams in the state. Defen-sively, North Kitsap is only giving up about 10 points per game.

“I think Tim Tramp has done a great job this year and is a coach that could really help turn Renton around, but the odds of them doing much in the playoffs this year are slim to none. Not to say they can’t, as anything is possible in high school football, I just highly doubt they get more than a single win, if they get one.”

Renton, WA 98057 1163

The following was compiled from Renton Police Depart-ment case reports.

BY DEAN A. RADFORD

[email protected]

A dispute erupted between two 15-year-old boys at Lindbergh High School Oct. 17 over bullying involving a pencil box.

The classroom teacher broke up the dispute, then called for assistance from school Principal Tres Genger and school security.

After the incident, Lind-bergh staff was “re-coun-seled” on spotting bullying and then stopping such incidents from escalating.

Each boy was suspended for five days but that was re-duced to three days for the boy who was bullied.

A Renton Police officer met with Genger on Oct. 21 after the incident was reported to the Renton Police Department by the

bullied boy’s family.Students in the class routinely hid the boy’s pencil box,

then laughed as he searched the classroom for it, accord-ing to the family’s report. In the incident leading up to the fight, the 15-year-old again hid the pencil box and other students said, “It’s over here” as the boy searched for it. He found the pencil box at his desk. The other 15-year-old laughed at him and said it was there all the time.

The boy responded, “Shut up. It’s not funny.” He went back to work. But the other boy hit him over the head with

a textbook, hard enough to knock his face into the desk.The victim jumped up and yelled an expletive. The other

boy punched him in the face. The victim picked up the boy, slammed him onto a table and began “beating” him.

When the incident was reported to police, the victim had small abrasions on his face, which he told officers was caused by being hit and having his head slammed on the table.

In the interview with the officer Oct. 21, Genger said he used the pencil box and the jeering as examples as behavior that needs to be stopped immediately to protect students.

The officer noted that the report was for documentation only and the handling of the incident was left to the Renton School District, which is prohibited by privacy laws from talking about student discipline.

MAN THROWS DOWN GIRLFRIEND OVER DEBIT CARD: A 40-year-old Renton woman was thrown to the ground Oct. 1 by her boyfriend of two years after she refused to give him his debit card so he could return to a Renton casino.

The victim waited about three weeks to report the as-

sault, but the injuries were still healing when she did.The 45-year-old boyfriend became angry with the victim

because she was talking to another man at the bar while he gambled. She decided to leave, after getting her purse from the boyfriend’s car.

The boyfriend soon followed her in the car on Southwest Sunset Boulevard, where he asked for his debit card. She refused to give him the card after she asked whether he was going to spend more money gambling.

She ran after he got a “blank look” on his face. He caught up with her, grabbed her hair and threw her to the ground. She threw the debit card at him.

He was initially arrested on a SeaTac warrant and booked into the SCORE regional jail on Oct. 22 but the booking was later changed to fourth-degree assault.

NOTHING HERE BUT PUMPKINS: A car prowler left behind on Oct. 23 two large pumpkins covered by a blan-ket in the backseat of a car parked in The Landing.

The owner, a Newcastle woman, discovered the broken rear passenger side window at about 11 p.m.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

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.

Nothing apparently was stolen. Damage to the vehicle was esti-mated at about $300.

MAN ASSAULTED DOWN-TOWN: After he was assaulted downtown on Oct. 22, a 59-year-old Renton man decided to go home and drink alcohol in an attempt to stop the bleeding.

When that didn’t work, he decid-ed to drive himself to Valley Medi-cal Center, where security called police after he became combative with hospital staff.

An officer found him sitting in a room with blood on his face and jeans. Three men assaulted him at the transit center downtown, but he couldn’t remember when. He didn’t want to report the assault and he was done talking to the officer.

COUNTERFEIT: A woman who used a fake $5 at a mini-mart on South Grady Way Oct. 22 told the clerk she got it at a smoke shop in the Renton Highlands.

The clerk recognized the bill was a fake; she kept ahold of it while calling police. The woman left before officers arrived because she didn’t want to be named in any police reports.

THREE OUT OF FOUR: Thieves stole three tires and rims from a Honda Odyssey Oct. 21 parked at a used-car lot on South-west Sunset Boulevard, leaving the mini-van sitting on the ground.

The thieves couldn’t manage to get the fourth tire off – the passenger-side front tire – which was still partially attached to the mini-van.

[ BLOTTER from page 15]

On Friday, Oct. 31, Metropolitan King County Councilmember Dave Upthegrove delivered an eight-passenger van to Renton Area Youth and Family Services (RAYS).

RAYS will use the van to transport youth to development programs, cultural and educational outings, community service opportunities and the odd trick or treating activity about town. The van will also be used to help seniors who are their grandchildrens’ primary caregivers.

“Renton Area Youth and Family Services helps hundreds of kids and seniors get the services they need every day,” said Upthe-grove in a press release. “I am excited to donate a ‘retired’ van from King County to help RAYS continue this mission.”

RAYS is a nonprofit organization that provides mental health and drug treatment counseling, parenting support and com-munity resources to children and youth in the greater Renton and Tukwila area. RAYS operates in many schools and two commu-nity centers – one in downtown Renton and one in Skyway.

Since 1995, the County Council has donated vans from Metro’s Vanpool to local cities and nonprofit organizations to provide transportation for low-income, elderly, youth and disabled residents. The vans are part

of a fleet of county vehicles that have been ‘retired’ after accruing a certain number of miles.

Governments, agencies and organizations that receive vans must meet specific require-ments, including outlining specific plans for using the van, ability to provide quality and

trained drivers and assurance that the van will be available to assist persons without regard to affiliation with any particular orga-nization.

Interested organizations can contact Upthegrove’s office at 206-477-1005.

are not enough ballots to main-tain voter privacy.

Voters have until 4:30 p.m. on Nov. 24 to resolve any signature issues before the election is certi-fied.

In state legislative races, Democrats Zack Hudgins and Steve Bergquist were easily holding on to their 11th District House seats.

Hudgins is running unop-posed; Bergquist was ahead of Republican Sarah Sanoy-Wright with about 66 percent of the vote.

In the 33rd District, State Sen. Karen Keiser, a Democrat, was ahead of Republican Martin Metz, with 63 percent of the vote. In House races, Tina Orwall was retaining her Position 1 seat with 64 percent of the vote over Republican Michael J. Siefkes;

Mia Gregerson was holding on to her House Position 2 seat over Republican Jeanette Burrage, with 55 percent of the vote.

In addition to the state Senate race in the 37th District, state Reps. Sharon Tomiko Santos and Eric Pettigrew were returned for new two-year terms, each win-ning handily with 84 percent of the vote in the initial tally. Their opponents were Daniel Bretzke

and Tamra Smilanich, respec-tively.

In the 41st District, state Rep. Judy Clibborn, a Democrat, won re-election, beating Alex O’Neil with 74 percent of the vote. In House Position 2, Democrat Tara Senn, who was appointed in Sep-tember 2013 to replace Marcie Maxwell as state representative, was beating Republican Bill Stin-son with 62 percent of the vote.
