    e project to create a better system for salmon habitat in Issaquah Creek is nally done. Originally scheduled to be com-pleted in September 2013, the project was delayed by weather and ground water problems.

    Darin Combs with the state Department of Fish and Wildlife said the contractors encountered much more groundwater than expected, and last Septembers rainfall didnt help matters.

    Wed never seen the creek that high in the 10 years Ive been here, Combs said.

    e valves were opened on Monday, March 3 and Issaquah Creek water once again began owing into the hatchery ponds and incubation trays from the

    upper intake. e operation is now in the

    hands of Fish and Wildlife, handed over from the contractor, SNC-Lavalin. Everything is run-ning smoothly except that they still dont have power, so tem-porarily a large diesel powered

    Beth Goldberg has been hired as the new director of administrative services for the city of Sammamish. Goldberg, who served as Seattles budget director under Mayor Mike Mc-Ginn, will join the city on May 19.

    Were delighted that Beth chose Sammamish, City Manager Ben Yazici said. Her resume abso-lutely sparkles, and she has a reputation for working really well in a collaborative environment. Weve just added a lot of horsepower.

    As the director of admin-istrative services, Gold-berg will oversee human resources, utility contracts, legal contracts and a variety of other administrative functions. She replaces Mike Sauerwein, who was recently hired as the city manager in Medina.

    Goldberg has a master of public administration degree from the University of Washington. Her under-graduate degree is from the University of California, Davis.

    Sammamish hires Beth Goldberg as adminstrative services director

    replaced by the new intake, dated back to 1937. e old sh ladder, with 12-inch high steps, was too high for the returning sh since they were nearing the end of their lives and running out of energy. Now, new rock weirs with an open area in the middle, make it easier for the fry to migrate.

    Each step-up is 9-inches, followed by little pools for the sh to rest before mak-ing the next jump.

    Its critical they dont have much life le in them when they get to this point, Combs said.

    e best part it all looks very natural.

    Salmon are amazing and curious creatures. eyve adapted over the centuries to come back to their native water. Combs

    said Chinook and Coho will go all the way to the Paci c Ocean. Coho salmon will go south as far as California and north to Canada. But Chinook, or king salmon will go as far as Alaska. A chinook that started life in Issaquah Creek could come back weighing 35-pounds.

    So why is all of this necessary? Simple, said Combs. People want sh.

    e habitat wouldnt

    support all the sh without the hatchery, Combs said.

    e ve screens clean in 12 seconds each. e compressors then shut down for one minute to al-low pressure to build back up in the air tank, and the next screen is cleaned. When this occurs, it looks like a little geyser by each screen. Combs said they run through the cleaning process at least twice a day.

    Its really adjustable; you can do a lot of ne tuning with this system, he said.

    ey can see on the computer which screen is being cleaned, and when its complete. But they can also look at the water to see

    the bubbles.In addition to the project

    to create this new water access, nearby Cabin Creek also was recon g-ured where it ows into Issaquah Creek. Little step-ups were created for about 200 yards.

    e creek banks disturbed for the con-struction have now been re-contoured and planted with native plants. As the plantings ourish, Issaquah Creek will soon look more like it did before man began to alter the environ-ment.

    e $4 million project, was approved by the Legis-lature in 2013.

    The Sammamish City Council unani-mously approved a resolution April 15, authorizing the execution of an interlo-cal agreement with the city of Issaquah regarding the Klahanie potential annexa-tion area.

    City Manager Ben Yazici presented the agreement to the council and empha-sized the progress both cities have made in working together, urging council members to approve the resolution.

    This is a good agreement, Yazici said. We completed this agreement in light speed.

    The agreement states that Sammamish and Issaquah will cooperate and not op-pose efforts to transfer the Klahanie Po-tential Annexation Area from Issaquah to Sammamish. Sammamish will support Issaquahs Urban Center and Regional Growth Center designation requests before all government entities as well as the Central Issaquah Plan. Sammamish will not impose or accept any retail sales tax from the Klahanie Annexation Area, Sammamish will promptly take steps to improve Issaquah-Fall City Road upon annexation, and Sammamish will pay Issaquah $30,000 for full use of its Klah-anie annexation study.

    Councilmember Ramiro Valder-

    rama was displeased with parts of the agreement, referencing the annexation study.

    I wish this would have come to us sooner so we could have fixed the lan-guage, Valderrama said. Nonetheless, because its allowing us to have new lev-els of cooperation, I will be supportive. I just wish we would have had the chance to look at the language of this.

    Mayor Tom Vance said he wanted to acknowledge all of the hard work put

    into the agreement, specifically by Is-saquah Mayor Fred Butler.

    This was all about changing our relationship with Issaquah and making it a better one for the region, he said. Im very happy to support this. It was a long process, a lot of things came in, a lot of things went outit was a two-way street.

    It took longer to complete than expected, but the $4 million e ort to improve the salmon habitat in Issaquah Creek is nally nished.We couldnt be happier and we expect the salmon will

    be, too. eres now a far easier process for returning salmon to migrate past the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery and move upstream in Issaquah Creek.

    e old dam, dating back to 1937, is gone, as are the 12-inch-high steps the salmon had to leap on their journey to spawn. Now, each step is but nine inches and there are pools for the sh to rest on as their jumping journey continues.

    As Reporter sta writer Linda Balls story on page one notes, the new system not only is better for the salmon, but is also a visual improvement that only will get better as foliage lls in along the recontoured creek banks.

    Other improvements are out of sight but equally important to the health of the salmon. e water that ows from the creek to the hatchery now has a computer-controlled clean-ing process that can clean each of ve screens in 12 seconds each.

    e creek and the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery are more than just a place for sh. As the Friends of the Issaquah Salm-on Hatchery point out, the hatchery is the most visited of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlifes hatcheries, with thousands of visitors every year. e salmon also form the bedrock reason for Issaquahs annual Salmon Festival that brings hundreds of thousands of visitors to the city each fall.

    A nal point worth noting: kudos to the Legislature for committing the funds for the project. eres no lack of projects and programs that could have used the $4 million. Fortunately, the salmon won the day as did we all.

    An important vote ere are just a few days le to vote in the April 22 election.

    One issue of particular importance to Sammamish voters is the $404 million bond issue to rebuild and construct more schools in the Lake Washington School District. We endorsed last years larger bond issue that, unfortunately, failed. is one is far easier on the pocketbook, but still provides help in meet-ing the districts growing enrollment. We urge a yes vote.

    Get informed on transportationBY RICHARD GABELAND MATTHEW BOTT

    Ballots hit mailboxes earlier this month as you and other King Coun-ty voters will decide on whether to support a proposition which includes, among other things, a sales tax increase and a new $60 vehicle fee. e revenue will be used to provide additional funding for Metro Transit service as well as a distribution among cities and rural areas for some addi-tional transportation purposes.

    For years, and espe-cially this year, Wash-ingtonians spanning the political spectrum have pleaded with state legislators to pass a comprehensive state-level transportation package to keep people,

    goods and our economy moving forward. e needs are vast and the investment in our transportation system will have an

    enormous impact on our future competi-tiveness.

    Nobody is more frustrated at the Legis-latures inability to invest in needed, critical and long overdue transportation solutions than the business community. Chambers of commerce, industry associations and busi-nesses large and small from across the state, have continued to stand arm-in-arm with environmental groups, labor leaders, transit supporters and others to make the case for these needed comprehensive reforms and investments.

    Yet again, the Legislature adjourned this winter with no transportation package. We now see King County asking voters to approve a new revenue proposal aimed at a portion of the needs.

    Leading institutions di er on their endorsements of this proposal: e Seattle Chamber of Commerce and the King County Municipal League say vote yes. e Bellevue Chamber of Commerce and the Seattle Times urge a vote of no.

    One can appreciate King Countys desire to bring something forward and the need for adequate transit service across the county is clear. But is the current model, absent reforms, sustainable over the long

    LWSD bond will keep education high e board of directors of the Sammamish Chamber of

    Commerce endorses the upcoming Lake Washington School Districts bond levy. e chamber supported the levy last No-vember. We reiterate our earlier opinion that quality public education is of paramount importance to our community and approval of the levy will enable the district to ful ll a number of critical projects needed not only to continue to provide excellence in education but also meet expected growth in district enrollment now projected at 4,000 over the next eight years.

    High quality education within the district aligns with the Sammamish chambers mission to provide economic vitality within the city of Sammamish and attract a demographic of families who are both owners and consumers of business in Sammamish. e educational upgrades and teaching tools the bond will provide are paramount to ensuring both the high quality of education the district provides our kids and maintaining long-run economic vitality of our city.

    e chamber is con dent in the districts nancial man-agement and planning capabilities and believes the pro-

    posed bond request of $404 million is both reasonable and responsible. For these reasons, the chamber urges citizens of Sammamish to vote for the levy on April 22.

    Sanders' story nicely doneKudos to the Issaquah & Sammamish Reporters Aprils

    11 awe-inspiring story about Dawn and John Sanders. Kelly Montgomery's coverage of the upcoming journey of the Sanders was very inspirational to read and from the story one understood the depth of the compassion of both Dawn and John for helping others.

    e Sanders certainly have contributed unsel shly to the local communities through their seemly untiring volunteer-ing and service e orts. In fact, Dawn commented that she was concerned that she would not be able to keep busy. e past history of this unique couple makes that statement doubtful.

    Now they are about to leave for a courageous and compas-sionate journey. Our loss will certainly be Vietnams gain. e Sanders will be missed but we wish them Bon Voyage, to travel well and return soon.

    term? Some applaud King County for at least putting something forward. Others urge caution and list concerns about expense control and historical patterns of promises not delivered.

    And to the topic of comprehensiveness: county-funded transportation is clearly only part of the regional transporta-tion system, so one has to ask what will this measure mean to the prospects of a needed statewide package? Will this measure increase voter fatigue from continuous requests for new revenue to fund the investments? Is this a short term win which could lead to a long term loss? Questions abound.

    Voters, all of whom we hope are paying attention to the unfolding state and county transportation debate, have important choices to make. Please take the time to educate yourself on this ballot measure and then the transportation positions of the legislative candidates appearing on the ballot

    in November. Transportation is a key issue in determin-ing our regions competitiveness. Solutions take many years of planning, permitting and construction, so the decisions we make today we must live with for a long time to come. Leadership is needed and an informed electorate is the best rst step.

    BY LINDA BALLISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

    Dozens of Talus residents and concerned citizens lled Issaquah City Council chambers Tuesday night for a meeting of the Urban Vil-lage Development Commission regarding three parcels in the mountainside village.

    Perhaps with the tragedy in Oso fresh on their minds, they are concerned about the number of retaining walls necessary to develop the steep slope, which is one of the last undevel-oped pieces of the Talus urban village.

    Lisa Milkowski, who lives in Talus, suggested the commission take a look on YouTube at Issaquah/Talus mudslide from three years ago. It is a scary video.

    ere is risk, Milkowski said. Milkowski said as a homeowner she does

    not want to be responsible for a wall of the magnitude of the one proposed on the east side of Parcel 7. at proposed retaining wall is almost 800-feet long and 48-feet high at its highest point. Ryan Kohlman, speaking on behalf of the applicant, Triad Associates, said the homeowners association in Talus would own and maintain all the retaining walls unless a sub-HOA is created.

    Geo-technical engineer Carolyn Decker ac-knowledged the very steep slopes of the project, but said they can build a very stable, safe wall.

    e catch is these walls have a 50-year life span. She said the big wall proposed for Parcel 7 would be founded on bedrock.

    e question remained, who is going to maintain these walls and put money aside to replace it in 50 years? Talus does have a master homeowners association, but its not unheard

    of for subdivisions within the village to have their own HOA.

    But the residents of Talus arent buying it.Karen Portereld said the wall on Parcel 7

    is half the height of the retaining wall that is failing behind the Issaquah Home Depot. She wanted to know why the city isnt willing to take ownership of the Parcel 7 wall if theyre so condent it wont fail.

    Please understand that the homeowners are not ready to assume the wall, she said.

    Toni Letendre echoed her thoughts. He said the new walls represent a signicant departure from the walls they have now.

    Lucy Sloman, land development manager for the city, said the city usually only owns walls associated with rights-of-way. She added that homeowners associations are out of the citys purview.

    Darren Peugh of Talus Management Services said its inaccurate that the homeowners have no control over the village.

    e master developer is not the puppet-master for the HOA, Peugh said.

    He said theyve put $350,000 into the HOA over the years.

    But at a cost of $2.5 million for all these new walls - exclusive of engineering fees, the home-owners werent buying it.

    e number and size of the walls are of concern to a lot of people and me, said UDVC chair Georey Walker. is is inconsistent with the plan. Parcel 7 makes me very uncom-fortable.

    Walker asked the applicant how many units they would have to take the project down to, to avoid some of the walls. He said the height and length of the one wall in particular, and the fact

    that this is being thrust on the community is what bothered him.

    Also of concern was encroachment into a 50-foot buer on Cougar Mountain parkland which was written into the original Talus mas-ter plan. Ken Koningsmark, who was involved with Talus from the start said encroaching into the buer would be a direct violation of the agreement. e developer wanted to put two water tanks into the buer. Sloman said a precedent was set when another water tank was allowed in the buer further south. But they backed o and agreed not to set the new water tanks in the buer.

    By the end of the three and one-half hour meeting, the commission agreed to approve development on Parcels 8 and 9, but they tabled 7 until the next meeting, May 6.

    ere might be a way the developer can modify the homes to have steeper daylight

    basements and less of a backyard to avoid the steep wall. Sloman said the architectural review committee would be dealing with home design, and thought that discussion was premature.

    Connie Marsh of Issaquah talked about the character of a mountain village, so commenting about design not coming until the architectural review was not premature.

    I want better for my town, not just what the market will bear, Marsh said. Were building to the lowest common denominator. I want Talus great. Im tired of things being not so hot.

    If the entire plan can be approved, site construction could start this year, with total build-out by 2017. As it stands now, 153 lots on 34.75 acres are planned including single family attached and detached homes and 16 tracts for critical areas, trails, utility, access, recreation, and open space.

    Public pushes back; Talus preliminary plat not a slam-dunk

    This conceptual plan of Talus Parcels 7-9 shows dozens of retaining walls that are recommended for the project. Talus residents are skeptical of the plans for Parcel 7, (lower right) which would require one retaining wall that is almost 800-feet long and 48-feet high at its highest point. COURTESY IMAGE.

    Women of Persia, the current exhibit at Blakely Hall in the Issaquah Highlands, is art that talks.

    Issaquah artist Farshad Alamdari, in his rst major exhibition, is portraying women who had power and free-dom, which changed a er the Iranian Revolution. He said the politics and religion are stopping them, but they will continue to ght until they have victory.

    e story behind the paintings is an opportunity for young women to learn, to nd their presence, their per-sonality, Alamdari said.

    Alamdari is a native of Iran, a scientist and an artist. He le Iran six years before Ayatollah Khomeini led the 1979 Iranian Revolution which saw the overthrow of Moham-mad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran.

    He earned his Ph.D. in architecture in England and became a leader in sustainability, long before it was a hip buzzword in the U.S. He said in the U.K. they were build-ing green by 1990, whereas the U.S. was 10 years behind. Alamdari was the chief scientist for the U.K. on sustain-able built environment.

    He had been painting since he was 14 and drawing since he was six. When his wife was o ered the position of vice-president for marketing with Boeing, he followed her here two years later, devoting all of his time to his art. He worked on Women of Persia for two and one-half years, full-time, producing 18 oil portraits of powerful women from Persian history, using his mother, wife, daughter and his sons girlfriend as inspiration.

    He said Islam was forced on Iran by the Arabs 1,500 years ago, but it was Khomeini who forced women to cover their heads in 1980, which they still have to do.

    e women before Islam were ourishing, he said.Zoroastrianism, the rst religion which believed in one

    God and is still practiced by many people worldwide, is the ancient Iranian religion, coming before Christianity,

    Islam or Judaism. One of his paintings called Compas-sionate, is his interpretation of Queen Cassandane, 545 B.C. She was a Persian noblewoman and the dearly loved wife of the King of Kings, Cyrus the Great. Whats notable, is that Cyrus the Great wrote the rst chapter ever on human rights, which the authors of the United States Con-stitution used as a reference. Although Cyrus was Zoroas-trian, Alamdari said he did not suppress the Jews.

    Enduring is his portrait of the Shahs wife, Queen Farah.

    She was a kind woman who supported womens rights, Alamdari said. He said women in Iran advanced under her leadership.

    But the Shah was controlling, he said. With only one political party, Alamdari said it put a

    great deal of pressure on both men and women. During the Shahs rule, the middle class did much better. Now,

    he said, in ation is over 600 percent and there is a huge disparity between the very rich and the very poor.

    Noble is a portrait inspired by Turandokht, a cold-hearted princess (630 A.D.) who was determined that no man should ever possess her. e story of Turandokht was turned into a popular opera by Puccini.

    en there are the warriors. Resilient is inspired by Azad, (750 A.D.), a guerrilla commander from the north of Iran. She fought against the Islamic forces during the occupation period.

    Progressive is one of the more modern portraits, in-spired by Dr. Talat Basari, the rst woman vice-chancellor of a prestigious university in Iran. She was appointed in 1960. Wearing a simple dress, she is looking contempla-tively at something in the distance.

    Finally, on opposite sides of the religious issue, Opti-mistic portrays Hila Sedighi, a human rights activist who was jailed at one time. In 2012 she was honored for her commitment to free expression by Human Rights Watch. Although she is wearing the head scarf, it is on loosely, revealing much of her hair.

    en, Tolerant, one of the more polarizing paintings by Alamdari, shows a mother and her two daughters in total burqas. Alamdari said in May 1979, the day of celebration for Iranians Womens Day, Islamic hijab on women was imposed. is requires women to wear loose- tting clothes as well as a head scarf that covers the hair.

    Women of Persia is presented by artEAST. Were very consciously looking for art that inspires

    dialogue, said artEAST Executive Director Karen Abel. Were thrilled to have this its our inaugural exhibition (of this type).

    ere will be a reception and artist talk from 6-8 p.m. Saturday, April 19 at Blakely Hall, 2550 N.E. Park Drive. All of Alamdaris paintings are for sale, with 30 to 40 per-cent of the proceeds going to artEAST for education and community programming.

    Women of Persia exhibit honors strong, powerful women

    Alamdari stands next to Tolerant, a powerful portrait of the current struggle of women in Iran. LINDA BALL, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

    Issaquah goalkeeper Saif Kerawala and the Eagles have been turning away foes all season, and sport an unbeaten record. DON BORIN, Stop Action Photography

    BY JOSH [email protected]

    For rst year Issaquah head soccer coach Kyle Tatro, the key to his teams success isnt easy to pin down.

    Seven di erent players have scored a goal, led by three from Ryan Higgins, and four others have tallied at least one assist on the season.

    e defense has been even equally impressive, and had not allowed a goal since March 28 as of the Reporters Wednesday deadline.

    Our defense has been tremendous from top to bot-tom, Tatro said. Our forwards on down have committed themselves to being an excellent defensive team, and that has gone a long way.

    e Eagles have posted ve straight shutout wins in 4A KingCo play, and are one of three remaining unbeaten teams in the conference along with rival Skyline (the Spar-tans have one tie in conference play) and Redmond.

    Tatro said while his entire squad has focused on squeez-ing opponents out of scoring chances, the play of junior goalkeeper Saif Kerawala has been another separating factor.

    Hes phenomenal, Tatro said, adding Kerawala has an exceptional ability to distribute the ball and jumpstart his teams attack, in addition to his duties as a shot-stopper. Hes got a lot of talent and is technically gi ed.

    Kerawala and the defense have allowed only three goals on the season, and never more than one in a single game.

    Josh Zhou and Ryan Higgins lead the team with ve goals each, while Conner Hughes has posted six assists.

    Tatro said along with Hughes, fellow center backs Ben Corman and Liam Bruno have risen to the challenge to help Issaquah remain unbeaten and in the drivers seat for a spot in the conference title game.

    Our center backs have been great, he said. ey have done a great job pressuring teams, especially the good teams weve come up against.

    A er facing Gar eld Wednesday, the Eagles meet Red-mond, which is also undefeated in KingCo play, Friday.

    With a 4A state tournament berth in its sights, Tatro said the key for his team is maintaining its defensive intensity and execution.

    It is continuing to work hard defensively and not losing sight of that, he said. Weve gotten o to a great start. But it is easy to stumble and lose everything weve gained.

    Spartans in position to make playo runSkyline trounced Bothell 6-0 Monday, earning its fourth

    win in as many games and keeping its conference record without a blemish on the season.

    e Spartans got goals from ve di erent players in the win, as Feb Rubilio, Matthew Richardson, Jason Twaddle, Armeen Badri and Mason Prendergast found the back of the net, with each of those goals coming on an assist.

    Coach Don Bramans team is unbeaten on the season and 5-0-1 in conference play, and still has games against the other two teams at the top of the conference in Red-mond and Issaquah.

    Eagles win two on Texas lacrosse trip

    Issaquah began its Spring Break trip with a 9-5 win over Vandegri (Austin, Texas), bolstered by a balanced scoring e ort led by a hat trick from Cody Klansnic.

    Zach Fritz scored a pair of goals and four other Eagles scored in the victory.

    Jordan Dondoyano went the distance in goal, recording seven saves to help his team to a win.

    Issaquah came back with a 7-4 win over Westlake (Aus-tin Texas), as Mikey Giannopulos netted four goals to pace the o ense and Dondoyano recorded 10 saves on 14 shots.

    Jake Collins, Jake Lindahl and Fritz also found the back of the net in the teams second win of a three-game trip.

    A 10-9 loss to Austin in the waning seconds of the match marked Issaquahs last game in the Longhorn State, before returning to Washington prep play April 18 against Mount Si.

    Skyline falls by a goal in Maryland e Spartans took the trip east to Maryland, one of the

    nations hotbeds for lacrosse, and fell 8-7 to Towson (Balti-more County).

    Skyline came back to win its second game of the trip, 9-8 over Gerstell Academy.

    Creekside youngsters catch passes from Seahawks practice squad player Chandler Fenner, as team mascot Blitz defends. JOSH SUMAN, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

    Creekside students Play 60Students at Creekside

    Elementary in Sammamish were treated to a pair of special visitors Tuesday, as Seattle Seahawks mascot Blitz and Chandler Fenner, a member of the teams practice squad, came to the school to promote the NFLs initiative against childhood obesity.

    e Play 60 program encourages youngsters to get out from in front of

    the television or computer screen, and to put down their smart phones and tablets for a minimum of sixty minutes per day.

    Fenner, a defensive back from Holy Cross University, talked to the students about the importance of main-taining an active lifestyle, and then participated with a small group of them in a series of football-related activities.

    Around two dozen Creekside students caught passes from Fenner, took hando s from Blitz and tried out their punting leg, a la Seahawks standout Jon Ryan.

    Fenner, who was also accompanied by former player and current member of the franchises fan devel-opment department, also spoke about the importance of standing up to bullying.
