Kirkland Reporter
Seventeen candidates have applied for the empty Kirkland Coun-

Four high schoolers sat in a Lake Washington High School computer lab last week. � eir focus was not on playing computer games or updating Facebook, but on an 18-inch tall robot they created. � eir task at hand was to tweak it just enough so that, come world cham-pionships, it is � t to compete against more than 400 teams from around the world.
Created in the fall of 2011, the Lake Washington High School Robotics Club has proven this school year that they’re serious about com-petition. � e team won the Western Washington VRC Tournament in March a� er becoming semi� nalists at the Washington B Team and the Lake Washington VRC tournaments a few months ago, and were quarter� nalist winners at the Washington
Jump Start Tournament last November. � ey’ve since been quarter� nalists at the British Columbia VEX Championship in March.
� e team will next take on the 2013 VEX High School World Championship in Anaheim, Calif., April 17-20.
“� is is a chance in a lifetime for these students,” Lake Washington High School club advisor Milo Dullum said, noting the team’s strengths are in de-pendability and scoring. “It is something they will always remember.”
Robotics Club president Steve Anton, 11, and club members Gordon Walsh, 12, Jacob Wall, 11, and Regan Colburn, 9, make up the competitive team named VEX 4770A Raging Robots, which consists of more students. But before the four
team-members and two chaperones can � y the 1,000-plus mile trip, they need to raise more money. � ey are more than half way towards their $6,000 goal. Organiza-tions such as the Kirkland Rotary Club, the Kirkland
Robotics Club needs funding to go to world champs

City delays action with Medic One levy, firefighters disagreeBY RAECHEL DAWSON
Kirkland is withhold-ing support of a region-wide Emergency Medical Services’ levy – opposition that could jeopardize the highly regarded Medic One system if a resolution to the impasse isn’t found soon.
But Kirkland � re� ghters this week called out city of-� cials, urging them to leave the decision up to voters in November.
“Kirkland’s been working over 18 months to � nd and improve the service to Kirkland,” said Councilman Dave Asher, who serves on the EMS Advisory Task Force. “We think we’re close and we think we’ll see something in the next couple of weeks that will be something, we’ll get this levy passed and keep this super system together.”

Cynthia Hudson, age unknown
Background: Hudson lives in the Juanita neigh-borhood and has lived in Kirkland for about 12 years. She graduated Vanderbilt University and the University of Washington with a doctor-ate in pharmacy.
Experience: Hudson has held various board positions at preschools and in the PTA.
Reason for running: Hud-son loves living in the City of Kirkland and she believes joining the City Council would give her ample opportunity to continue her work in community service.
Top issues facing the city: Hudson thinks parking in Kirkland is a problem as well as keeping small businesses in business for the longterm.
“Maintaining the small town charm that drew me to Kirkland is a balance between positive growth and saying ‘no’ to certain de-mands,” she said in an email. “Urban growth needs to be regulated and encouraged but at a pace that supports the ideals and living stan-dards of the residents who have made this city great.”
� e Totem Lake neighbor-hood’s situation is also on Hudson’s radar and thinks the city should o� er incen-tives for businesses to invest or relocate the to that area.

She is a founding member of the Kirkland Wildlife Habitat Team that focuses on educating people about habitats and how to grow friendly gardens to support wildlife. She is also certi� ed with the CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) Program.

Children’s School, Vitus has worked with several local organizations, including the Eastside Audubon Society, Hopelink and Eastside Baby Corner.
Reason for running: Vitus is looking for a better way to serve the Kirkland com-munity.
“I think Kirkland is already a wonder-ful place and I’d like to see it grow even more wonderful,” she said. “I’m think-ing long-term too. I don’t have an agenda. I don’t own property or a business. I’m a
working professional and I want Kirkland to be a great place for everybody.”
Top issues facing the city: One of the major issues facing the city is what to do with the Cross Kirkland Corridor.

He owned and operated a café in Bellevue through ‘90s and worked for the

Reason for running: He is running for the vacant seat because Kirkland is his hometown and hopes to continue his father’s tradi-
tion of giving back. His father, Gene Martenson, served on the city’s Planning Commission.
“I believe my his-tory as a city resident will also contribute to the future of Kirk-land,” he noted.

City seeks equitable participation in regional EMS
� e Kirkland City Council’s only priority in reviewing the EMS levy is the health and safety of our citizens. � e letter from the � re� ghter union president is inaccurate and not re� ective of current discussions. � e City of Kirkland is not requesting additional funding at this time and has not stopped the EMS levy from going to the ballot. In fact, Kirkland council members and city o� cials have worked diligently for the past 14 months trying to reach an agreement with King County about Kirk-land’s role in the regional EMS system. � e King County Council is still several months away from any action to place the levy on the ballot in Novem-ber. Kirkland is in productive discussions with the King County Council and we believe we are very close to a compromise that will allow unanimous support for the levy.
Kirkland is the only north end city with a population over 50,000 that does not have an ALS (paramedic) unit funded by the levy. Bellevue has four. Redmond and Shoreline each have three. One of Redmond’s units is stationed in Kirkland at EvergreenHealth Medical Center and nearly all its calls serve Kirkland residents. Having an ALS unit in your Fire Department creates better performance by all � re� ghters/EMTs and better coordination between the EMTs and paramedics. � e result is better outcomes for every emergency call in the City of Kirkland.
When the EMS levy planning began in early 2012, Kirkland made a simple request. Allow Kirkland to run the levy-funded ALS unit stationed in Kirkland and serve primarily our own residents. � is would bene� t the citizens of Kirkland at no additional cost to the levy. � e City of Redmond and the King County Executive did not support our request. Kirkland then asked for language to be added to the EMS Strategic Plan outlining a “path” for Kirkland to become a paramedic provider by the next levy in 2020. Again, the request was denied. None of Kirkland’s subsequent suggestions were included in the EMS Task Force recommendations that were concluded in July 2012.
Kirkland proposed several creative alternatives to ALS provision to the executive throughout the fall and winter of 2012 to reach a compromise. � e council laid out four key criteria that any Kirkland proposal had to meet. First, proposals could not raise the overall cost of the levy. Second, proposals could not impact any other city’s levy allocations or ALS service. � ird, proposals could not impact the operations or levy allocations of King County’s EMS Division. And � nally, proposals must demonstrate local value to Kirkland while improving the overall regional system.
� ese negotiations culminated in a meeting with the executive on January 31. Unfortunately Kirkland’s proposals were not accepted and no counterproposals were made. To our disappoint-ment, new language was put into the EMS Strategic Plan to speci� cally prohibit any new agencies from becoming ALS providers.
� e state Legislature gave cities with populations over 50,000 approval authority over a countywide EMS levy for a reason. Cities give up their own abil-ity to run an EMS levy when a countywide measure is placed on the ballot. As a new city of 81,000, Kirkland o� cials must now weigh the bene� ts of the regional system against the local value that would be provided if Kirkland ran its own levy and its own ALS system. As the 2013 EMS levy was developed, Kirkland agreed to remain within the regional framework. But a regional partnership must make every partner successful.
Fortunately the King County Council is being a good partner, thanks in large part to the leader-ship of King County Councilmembers Jane Hague, Kathy Lambert and Rod Dembowski. � e EMS Strategic Plan is now at the King County Council for review and approval. As a result of new positive
discussions, Kirkland has returned to its original interest. Once again Kirkland is only seeking a path to becoming an ALS provider in 2020. Kirkland has suggested amendments to the Strategic Plan that call for a study of Kirkland becoming an ALS pro-vider and removing the restrictions on new agen-cies providing paramedic service. � ese are modest and thoughtful requests. I would be happy to meet with the � re� ghter union leadership to update them on our most recent discussions with King County.
� e Kirkland City Council places the health and safety of our citizens above all other priorities. We have a responsibility to ensure that any countywide EMS levy is also in the best interest of Kirkland citizens. We ful� ll those responsibilities by being willing to ask di� cult questions and challenge the status quo on behalf of our citizens. We believe we are close to reaching an agreement that will bene� t both Kirkland and the region.Kurt Triplett, Kirkland city manager
McLeod project a 3-in-1 building
We have observed that the McLeod Lake Street proposal seems to skirt the rules by sometimes considering the project to be a single building and, when it bene� ts the addition of o� ce space, it con-veniently morphs into three “completely separate” buildings. � is is, at the very least, disingenuous. So, how is this demonstrated in the construction proposals?
1. � e building is one – � ere is no parking on two of the three building parcels but, because park-ing is required for any construction project, it must be a single building.
2. � e building is three – If the buildings were considered en masse, the Eastern portion of the structure would need to be cut back in height. So, this project is three buildings.
3. � e building is one – A concession on the set-back to the Market Place Building has been allowed by the Kirkland City Design Review Board due to a give-back of Lake Street frontage open space in another construction phase. It must be a single building.
4. � e building is three – � e Market Place build-ing will be constructed � rst and there is no current commitment to build the other two buildings. � ere we are, back to three buildings.
5. � e building is one – Oh, wait a minute, that � rst phase building does not need to address design constraints on the north and east sides; those por-tions will be covered up by the other buildings any-way. Even if this is eventually mitigated, the fact that
they proposed this approach shows the builder’s hand. It is a single structure.
6. � e building is three – If forced to consider this a single building, there will need to be a consider-able redesign which will substantially a� ect the massing. � e developer has not shown any interest in compromise on size, so three it is.
7. � e building is one – What if the buildings are sold separately and the parking garage denies access to vehicles destined for the other two build-ings. Eventually, these buildings will be sold. If they cannot be sold separately, the building is one. It is obvious what is going on here. How can we allow the bending (even breaking) of the zoning code in this manner?Brian Rohrback, Kirkland Neighbors United president
Urge Sen. Hill to support our waterways
Every year the state Legislature is challenged with the need to balance multiple priorities within the constraints of limited state resources. One priority that should be on all the legislators’ radar is protect-ing and enhancing the quality of life for all Wash-ingtonians where our local economy is supported by a healthy environment.
With the heavy rainfall of Washington carrying pollutants from our cars, lawns, and sewers straight into a body of water shared by all, we all have a responsibility to try to keep that water clean. Storm water runo� is the largest source of water pollution in water bodies across the state – from Puget Sound to the Spokane River.
Over the last few years, the Legislature has put temporary funding measures in place as an initial down payment on addressing this pressing prob-lem. However, a long-term and more permanent funding source is needed for local communities. � e environmental community is supporting the Conservation Works Priority, a package of natural resource programs in the capital budget. � e pack-age is a direct path to cutting down the amount of pollution entering our waters by providing critical funds in the capital budget for local jurisdictions to address storm water. Support for Conservation Works is good � scal stewardship. I urge Sen. Andy Hill to support this e� ort and protect our waterways such as Lake Washington, Lake Sammamish and Puget Sound. With this priority we have the chance to help the local economy through job creation while protecting Washington’s waterways. Ron Snell, Kirkland

Kiwanis Club and the PTSA have graciously donated money. And with other pri-vate donations included, the club has secured more than $3,500.
“Our Kiwanis Club loves to support local kid things,” said Kiwanis Club President Jay Henwood. “I think the majority of our efforts should go to support the local kids here.”
After Dullum emailed Henwood to see if the Kiwan-is Club would be interested in helping the team, Henwood suggested the students bring their robot to one of the board meetings. As soon as they got there, Henwood rolled up a $20 bill and threw it to the ground to see if the robot could pick it up.
“Before they were done, they had a couple of hundred dollars,” Henwood said,
adding he finds value in supporting skills in auto-mechanics, engineering and technology. “I like hands-on things and so many charities and volunteer opportunities are less hands-on. It [can be] about the money you raise, but what’s more important is the mentorship.”
After a few more emails and networking, Bruce Wynn with the Greater Kirkland Chamber of Commerce was able to persuade Google rep-resentatives to donate $1,500 toward the team.
“Robotics falls into the engineering and math com-ponent,” Wynn said of STEM education, which Google gravitates toward. “They’re a big supporter of the educa-tion community, [especially] if it’s something that comple-ments the IT community.”
The world championship’s “Sack Attack” competition
will be held on a 12 by 12 foot field with the goal of scoring points by picking up bean bag sacks and scoring. Each team must make their robot autonomous for 15 seconds but are allowed a one minute and 45 second driver-con-trolled time period to score points.
The team members say, aside from learning various aspects of science and tech-nology, they acknowledge they have learned valuable life skills such as how to be competitive and how to fund-raise. Nearly all of them hope to apply their skills in science and technology toward a future career.

On March 28 King County Executive Dow Constantine submitted an ordinance to the King County Council for the levy, which would fully fund the Medic One service. But the levy needs support from nine cities - those with more than 50,000 residents - before it can go to the voters this fall. Seattle, Auburn and Kirkland have not yet taken action, although Seattle and Auburn has shown support in region-wide task force meetings.
Asher said Kirkland is ask-ing to become a paramedic provider for the next levy set for 2020.
“One of the key reasons is to have those highly trained emergency medic folks in our department,” Asher said. “The ultimate goal is to improve the services.”
Earlier this year officials in Kirkland voiced concerns about the amount of money Kirkland taxpayers pay into the region-wide system and the way EMS is slated to run over the next six years, should the levy be approved.
Kirkland City Council-woman Penny Sweet recently went before the King County Council’s Regional Policy Committee to voice her city’s concern and opposition. Kirkland, she told members of the county council “feels
it’s important to inform you … that unfortunately we’re not in a position to support the levy.”
In an interview February, Sweet stressed that Kirkland officials support the EMS system and want to see it continue. But, she added, “I wouldn’t have gone before the Regional Policy Committee if our concerns weren’t pretty significant.”
At issue, in part, is “eq-uity” within the system, she said. The countywide levy rate — 30 cents per $1,000 of assessed value — costs Kirkland’s taxpayers about $1 million more than they receive from EMS.
Vashon, on the other hand, is subsidized by EMS; taxpay-ers pay about $700,000 into the system and receive more than $2 million from the region-wide service.
Sweet said she doesn’t be-grudge Vashon residents for the subsidy; the island is one of several entities subsidized by EMS. But, she added, “We want something a bit more equitable than we have now.”
The current levy funds that region-wide Medic One service, and is considered especially critical to some city services, such as the Vashon Fire Department, which re-ceives about half of its budget from EMS funding.
Kirkland’s opposition has raised alarm for cities such
as Vashon, which would be hard-pressed to fill the financial gap should the EMS system unravel.
“There’s a huge amount at stake,” said Hank Lipe, chief of Vashon Island Fire & Rescue.
Money from the EMS levy funds the salaries of Vashon’s eight paramedics, highly trained responders who can make the differ-ence between life and death for a person suffering from a heart attack or another life-threatening emergency, Lipe said. Vashon, because of its geographic isolation, is particularly vulnerable to any changes in the countywide system, Lipe said.
Kirkland firefighters are also concerned about the impact of not having a Medic Once service. They expressed their support this week for an EMS levy to go before voters.
“Initially, Kirkland was asking good questions,” said president of the Kirkland firefighter local union 2545. “After annexation, now we have a vote at the table. They were talking about being a service provider - how can we get [our own paramedic] unit?
“Unfortunately, that was more than six months ago. They’ve stopped talking about that. Now they’re talk-ing about money. It’s a money grab [to get] a bigger piece of
the pie.”Redmond paramedics
from EvergreenHealth Medi-cal Center assist people in Totem Lake and downtown, paramedics from Shoreline assist the Finn Hill area, Bel-levue paramedics assist south Kirkland and paramedics from Redmond assist the Rose Hill area.
Officials from the Kirkland Fire Department say victims of cardiac arrest in Kirkland are “many times more likely to survive compared to other national cities” because of the Medic One services.
In 2010, firefighters responded to more than 163,000 calls and medics treated more than 47,000 Advanced Life Support (ALS) patients in all of King County.
Medical personnel serve more than 1.9 million people in King County and respond every three minutes to medi-cal emergencies and one out of 10 have used the Medic One/EMS system before.
Medic One is a widely hailed regional emergency response system — so good that “Sixty Minutes” once named Seattle the best place in the world to suffer from a heart attack. Premised on the idea that the first 10 minutes can make the difference in emergency response, two doctors at Harborview Medi-cal Center and the Seattle fire chief at the time launched the
system in 1970, inaugurating what was then a somewhat radical idea — that firefight-ers could be taught some of the same skills that doctors use to save lives, applying those skills in homes and on the streets.
Since then, Medic One has become a nationwide model, and the region continues to lead the country in response times and survival rates. According to Medic One statistics, a person who had a cardiac arrest in King County in 2011 had a 52 percent chance of survival, the high-est to date anywhere in the country; nationwide, the survival rate is 10 percent.
The disagreement over Kirkland’s support of the levy unfolded during discussions over the past year, when a 19-member EMS advisory task force met to craft recom-mendations for the EMS levy and the strategic plan for the next six years. The current levy expires at the end of this year. Without a new levy, Medic One’s future would be uncertain and jobs could be at stake.
In January, King County published its 2014-2019 EMS strategic plan, crafted with input from the task force.
The plan calls for a con-tinuation of the current EMS structure, funded with a 33.5-cent levy rate, which would bring in nearly $700 million
over the course of the six-year levy. The task force voted 18-1 to support the recom-mendations in the plan; only Kirkland opposed it.
Sweet said Kirkland has several concerns aside from equity. Also at issue is the city’s desire to see its fire de-partment offer what’s called “advanced life support” or ALS emergency services — life-saving medical response provided by highly trained paramedics. Kirkland cur-rently receives that service from Redmond, which houses the service at Ever-greenHealth Medical Center in Kirkland.
Sweet said Kirkland doesn’t expect to become an ALS provider immediately but wants to be “on a path to that.” But the task force didn’t go along with Kirkland’s re-quest, she said, leaving Kirk-land’s representative on the task force Councilman Dave Asher “beyond frustrated.”
The city needs to make its final decision by July before the King County Council can vote on the ordinance, how-ever Vadney said the time to make these decisions is now.

CommunityBRIEFSRecycling at Houghton transfer station to restore
In an effort to encourage continued recycling and help achieve a goal of zero waste of resources, King County is restoring recycling services at its Houghton, Renton and Shoreline solid waste facili-ties.
“We heard from many resi-dents in these communities who liked the convenience of recycling at transfer stations, and we want to ensure that recyclable materials continue to be collected for recycling – rather than thrown away with the garbage,” said Pat D. McLaughlin, director of the Solid Waste Division of the County’s Department of Natural Resources and Parks.
King County discontinued recycling at the transfer sta-tions in early 2012 in an effort to reduce costs and eliminate a duplicate service.
McLaughlin said funds to allow the division to continue
free recycling services at the Houghton, Renton and Shoreline recycling and trans-fer stations were restored as part of the new solid waste rate that went into effect Jan. 1.
The division is looking at ways to bring the service back in a more efficient and economical fashion, including adding cardboard compactors, that would allow transport vehicles to more efficiently pack materials and cut the number of hauls nearly in half.
“Customers can help reduce the cost of recycling by sorting their materials
correctly and not putting gar-bage or other unacceptable items in with their recycling,” McLaughlin said.
Contamination of recyclable materials in the recycling bins at King County facilities has also resulted in a significant decline in recycling revenue; the success of the recycling program depends upon the quality of the materials recycled.

Kirkland firefighters extinguished the flames of a kitchen
fire at a house in the Finn Hill neighborhood Wednesday evening.
Initial reports indicate the fire quickly spread at the single-family home located at the 11400 block of 80th Ave. N.E.
Kirkland Fire Depart-ment battalion chief Joe
Sanford said the fire was confined to the kitchen - flames reached to the ceiling damaging walls and cabinets - but smoke billowed throughout the house.
“The smoke and heat melted ev-erything,” Sanford said, noting the investigator estimat-ed $80,000 to $100,000 worth in damages.
The accidental fire oc-curred due to a cooking
oil spill on the electric burner of an oven.
“Anytime you get cooking oil against a hot element … it can ignite,”
Sanford said. “Once it ignites, it’s hard to put out. Often people throw water on it but it
makes a splash, and you have burn-
ing oil splashing every-where.”
Sanford said people should cover the pan
where the oil is coming from instead of using water.
No serious injuries were reported. However, Sanford said the woman who was cooking and re-ported the fire had minor burns on her face. She was taken to Evergreen-Health Medical Center, examined and released.
Units from Kirkland, Bothell and Northshore responded.

Seven guns, multiple guitars, musical instru-ments, jewelry, 59 grams of methamphetamine, and 4.5 pounds of marijuana were recovered in a Bellevue bust last week following the arrest of a proli� c burglary suspect.
Detectives are still si� ing through the recovered items and identifying owners.
On March 28, the Bel-levue Special Enforcement Team (SET) arrested a regional burglary suspect, Andy Max Ellis, 28, in Ta-coma where they recovered massive amounts of stolen property, guns and drugs.
“� is is an excellent example of regional law en-forcement working together to solve crime,” Bellevue Chief Linda Pillo said.
According to charging documents, Ellis admitted to police he burglarized a Kirkland home and stole construction equipment from Alexander Graham Bell Elementary school.
Ellis said he clipped a sup-posed alarm wire and stole several Xbox games before � eeing an unlocked resi-dence at the 11000 block of 112th Ave. N.E. in Kirkland on March 1.
Documents said the resident did not know the burglary had occurred but police con� rmed the clipped wires on the south side of the home during their investigation.
When asked what his “top � ve” burglaries were, Ellis also told o� cers he commit-ted a “substantial” burglary at A.G. Bell Elementary’s construction site during the 2012 summer.
“Ellis stated over a two-day period that he and an associate stole tens of thousands of dollars worth of construction equipment, including welding gears and saws,” charging documents state.
Lt. Mike Murray with the Kirkland Police Depart-ment said the stolen items - torches, settling tanks to weld with, saws, electrical tools, chop saws, drills and hand tools - cost between $30,000 to $40,000.
Construction equipment was also stolen the week of New Years at the elementary school, according to Murray. However, it is unknown if Ellis was involved with that crime.
Tacoma Police, Gig Harbor Police and the Pierce County Sheri� ’s O� ce as-sisted Bellevue in the inves-
tigation and in serving the search and arrest warrants. SET developed information identifying Ellis as a suspect in multiple burglaries throughout King and Pierce County.
He became increasingly brazen with his burglaries and bragged about doing occupied burglaries at night and watching residents sleep.
Probable cause was de-veloped on Ellis for a recent burglary in Gig Harbor where a large amount of jewelry and a gun were taken. A SET Detective applied for an arrest war-rant for Ellis and a search warrant for his apartment in the Commencement Terrace Apartments in Tacoma.
Ellis was arrested, along with two other Tacoma resi-dents, Paul M. Valencia, 31, and a 30 year-old man yet to be charged, last � ursday morning during a high risk tra� c stop in Tacoma. Bur-glary tools and two ounces of methamphetamine were taken into evidence. � e Tacoma Police Department assisted in the stop.
Detectives also searched Ellis’s apartment and recovered property linking him to six recent burglaries, including the � rearm taken
in the Gig Harbor burglary. � ey also discovered a marijuana grow room in the apartment. Ellis’s roommate, a 28 year-old man, who was home during the search, was arrested for possession of a stolen � rearm and posses-sion of methamphetamine. He has not been charged.
During interviews, Ellis cooperated and confessed to more than 100 burglar-ies in the region within the last eight months and at
least four in Bellevue. Prior to being booked into King County Jail, he showed detectives homes in Bellevue that he burglarized. Valencia confessed to being the driver in burglaries in Bellevue along West Lake Samma-mish Boulevard, Newcastle and Issaquah.
More locations are still being identi� ed. Gig Harbor, Tacoma, Bellevue and Pierce County will all clear several cases as a result of these
arrests. � e King County Pros-
ecutor’s O� ce � led charges against Ellis for eight counts of residential burglary and two counts of the� of a � re-arm. Charges � led against Valencia were two counts of residential burglary and one count of the� of a � rearm.
Additional charges are pending on all suspects.

Ecology reviews public comments and considers whether discharges from this

Man pleads not guilty to raping teen girlBy Carrie rodriguez
A Mercer Island man charged last month with raping and paying a 15-year-old girl to have sex with him at a Kirkland condo pleaded not guilty April 3 in King County Superior Court.
Jordan Church Lind, 49, is being held on $200,000 bail at the King County Jail.
Court documents indi-cate the man allegedly met the teenager at his Norkirk
neighborhood residence, where he lived at the time of the alleged crime. He allegedly paid the girl for performing sexual acts on him on several occasions between January and February.
The girl also told Seattle police that she was involved with prostitution and had a female pimp who posted ads on Backpage.com.
Lind’s next hearing is scheduled for April 16.
CommunityBRIEFSguild Mortgage wins Hopelink Can Madness
Guild Mortgage of Kirk-land knew they had their work cut out for them if they had a shot at dethroning three-time Hopelink Can Madness champion Han-cock’s Bakery of Redmond.
Last year the Kirkland business came close but fell short of the championship. This time, the second-year competitor took home the trophy.
Accepting the trophy, an elated Scott Estes, sales man-ager for Guild Mortgage, said, “This is just amazing – the things we can do in the com-munity when we all come together.” In the end, it was a squeaker. During the final week of the competition to stock Hopelink’s food banks, Guild Mortgage brought in
7,432 pounds and $619 for a weekly score of 805 points, finishing the contest with a total of 12,454 pounds and $619. Hancock’s Bakery col-lected 2,364 pounds and $507 this week for a score of 798, with a grand total of 4,923 pounds and $607 during the competition.
To ensure that busi-nesses of all sizes were able to compete on a level playing
field, the competition used a unique scoring system: the total pounds of food donated by a business were divided by the total number of employ-ees, resulting in a competitive “score.” During the five-week competition, 25 businesses in Redmond, Kirkland, Bel-levue, Shoreline and Seattle collected a total of 27,116 pounds of food and $2,050 in cash.
