Twelve Northshore residents registered for Boston MarathonBY RAECHEL DAWSON AND MATT PHELPS
Reporter newspapers
Twelve Bothell and Kenmore residents were registered for
the Boston Marathon, which was the location of at least two bomb explo-sions Monday afternoon, according to the the
event’s organizers, the Boston Athletic Associa-tion.
These are the Bothell residents registered for the race: Hui Jin, 40; Tina Neil, 46; Julie Nelson 53; Suzanne E. Nester, 47; Suzanne Robbins, 51; Julia A. Walters-Burns, 51; Karra J. Whitmire, 35.
These are the Kenmore
residents registered for the race: Rich R. Bennett, 47; Bill Haldeman, 55; Greg J. Norling, 62; Rene Nussbaum, 44; Becci N. Walkling, 41.
More than 520 Wash-ington residents were registered for the race, according to the Boston Athletic Association.
Concerned family and
friends of the registrants can search the American Red Cross’s list of those who have registered them-selves as “safe and well” by clicking on the “Search Registrants” button on their website at https://safeandwell.communityos.org/cms/index.php.
The explosions took place about four hours
after the start of the men’s race, the New York Times reports, “which meant that there were still sev-eral thousand runners yet to finish the race.”
A Boston Police De-partment spokesman said that “a series of bombs exploded near the finish line” at the marathon, “leaving two people dead
and more than a dozen injured.”
However, various Boston media outlets are reporting that at least three people have died and nearly 180 people were injured.
Local, state and federal law enforcement were still investigating the terror attack at press time.
A man was seen spying on women in the bathroom of the Bothell Library on April 2 and 4. This is not the � rst time there has been a sexual crime at the library in Bothell. For the full story see page 2. MATT PHELPS, Bothell Reporter

� e lawsuit � led against Bothell Mayor Mark Lamb by a former employee at his law � rm was dismissed by a
Snohomish Superior Court Judge on March 27.
Lamb, who admitted to an a� air with the woman, also had his counterclaims for legal fees against former intern Micaela Mae dis-missed.
“� is case has resolved and been dismissed,” said Lamb’s attorney Christine A. Slattery in a statement to the Reporter. “We have no further comment.”
It is unclear whether the lawsuit was settled out of court.
Mae’s attorney Howard
Hall said, “the lawsuit has been resolved and dis-missed,” and also declined to comment further on whether or not the parties reached an agreement.
Both Lamb and Mae did not respond to the Report-er’s request for comment.

� e Northshore Schools Foundation hosted more than 300 people and raised $120,000 during its 10th an-nual luncheon on March 28 at the Lynnwood Convention Center. � e event featured Kenmore student speakers who have bene� ted from the Foundation’s support and grants.
Keynote speaker, and Seattle Foundation President, Norman Rice emphasized the value of community involvement in education and industry participation in K-12 education. He said it is important to expose students to the careers of the future.
But it was the students’ testimonials that made the most impact.
“We were thrilled to fea-ture some of the area’s most respected leaders, and in the end, it’s always the students who steal the show,” said Executive Director of the Northshore Schools Founda-tion Carmin Dalziel.
Inglemoor High School junior Spencer Lane was the featured student speaker for
the event.“One year ago I didn’t
know what STEM was and I had no idea that I had been the recipient of any of the grants from the Northshore Schools Foundation,” said Lane. “Today I am inspired to pursue a career in Sustain-able Engineering and Design, and grateful for the nine di� erent grants that have supported me in my educa-tion.”
Funds collected at the event go toward Northshore Schools Foundation initia-tives and programs. Many of those programs prepare stu-dents for college of a chosen career path.
Northshore Junior High students Anthony Ramos, Cristian Flores-Torres and Bainbridge Garcia shared how the Hang-Time homework support program helped them increase their grades and inspired them to go to college.
“If I didn’t have Hang -Time, I would probably be failing school and could not achieve my dream of being a Marine,” said Flores-Torres.

Bothell police are cur-rently investigating two reported incidents
of voyeurism that occurred at the King County Library’s Bothell branch.
The incidents occurred on April 2 and April 4, between the hours of 7-8 p.m.
“I have been doing this for 23 years and to have someone go back to the same loca-tion and be confronted both times, that is pretty bold,” said Bothell Police Sgt. Ken Seuberlich.
In both cases, library staff and witnesses saw a male sus-pect entering the women’s re-stroom and taking significant steps to view and/or record
females using the toilets.“I have a 9 year old and
it does change my opinion,” said Bothell resident and library patron Gina Lockhart. “I wish we could feel safe leaving my child in another area and working the com-puter but I don’t. People are creeps.”
Witnesses describe the male suspect as having a dark complexion and possibly being of Asian or Hispanic descent, between 25 and 35 years old, 5 foot 6 inches to 6 feet in height and with medium build.
“To have someone do this within the same time frame in the same location, odds are it is the same person,” said Seuberlich. “We have been in contact with both witnesses and there was not enough in-formation to provide a sketch of the person.”
Citizens who come into contact with the above de-scribed individual and others engaged in similar behavior are asked to call 911.
“Whenever these sorts of things come up we contact the police,” said King County Library spokesperson Julie Brand. “We have a very close working relationship with the Bothell Police Department.”
Seuberlich said that the police department has had close contact with the library and have given staff tips on what measures can be taken to prevent incidents.
“The libraries are public buildings and we have people from all walks of life coming through our doors,” said Brand. “People need to be aware of their surroundings.”
Adults who frequent the library with children are encouraged to accompany the children to the restroom. Citizens using the restroom facility should be conscious of individuals who may be hid-ing in bathroom stalls or not engaged in normal bathroom behavior.
“Push on the stall doors, if they are locked and you don’t see feet under the door there might be trouble,” said Seuberlich. “If you have chil-dren keep them close. “Call us (911) if you see anything. Don’t just tell the librarian if you see anything and be aware of your surroundings.”
Any reports of unusual behavior, such as adults of the opposite sex entering the bathroom, should be re-ported to the police and staff.
Any information regard-ing similar incidents with the above described male suspect can be forwarded to the Bothell Police Tip Line at 425-487-5551.
“People want to be able to go to the library and know it is a safe place,” said Seuber-lich.
Brand said that the KCLS has taken steps in an attempt to prevent such incidents at the Bothell branch such as moving the check out desk closer to the lobby where the bathrooms are located and instructing employees to check the bathrooms routinely.
This is the third time in less than three years there has been a crime of a sexual nature at the Bothell library. In July 2010 a 54-year-old Everett man was caught us-ing a mirror to peep under the stalls in the women’s restroom.
Bothell police reported that in October 2010 there were three separate incidents of a stranger fondling young girls at the library. All three victims were 7 years old.
The bathrooms are located in the library’s lobby and some have mentioned install-ing cameras to monitor the area.
“We cannot install cameras as the libraries are public buildings,” said Brand. “We also need to protect the pri-vacy of people and what they are checking out.”

How to sell your Bothell/Kenmore home without an agent and save the commission
Bothell/Kenmore - If you’ve tried to sell your home yourself, you know that the minute you put the “For Sale by Owner” sign up, the phone will start to ring off the hook. Unfortunately, most calls aren’t from prospective buyers, but rather from every real estate agent in town who will start to hound you for your listing. Like other “For Sale by Owners”, you’ll be subjected to a hundred sales pitches from agents who will tell you how great they are and how you can’t possibly sell your home by yourself. After all, without the proper information, selling a home isn’t easy. Perhaps you’ve had your home on the market for several months with no offers from qualified buyers. This can be a very frustrating time, and many homeowners have given
up their dreams of selling their homes themselves. But don’t give up until you’ve read a new report entitled “Sell Your Own Home” which has been prepared especially for home sellers like you. You’ll find that selling your home by yourself is entirely possible once you understand the process. Inside this report, you’ll find 10 inside tips to selling your home by yourself which will help you sell for the best price in the shortest amount of time. You’ll find out what real estate agents don’t want you to know. To order your FREE copy of this special report call toll free 1-800-269-1403 and enter 2820. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Get your free special report NOW to learn how you really can sell your home yourself.

Within this edition of the newspaper is a supplement about Bastyr University near you in Kenmore. You may know much, some or very little about the university. Whatever your knowledge level, Bastyr University has something to offer everyone. I encourage you to turn to the pages of our supplement to learn more about our stellar academic programs, innovative natural health clinic and scientific re-search efforts.
Bastyr University was founded in 1978 by a handful of Dr. John Bastyr’s former students, who wanted to ensure that his teachings in the natural health arts and sciences were passed onto future genera-tions. The campus is now located next to St. Edward State Park in a quiet stretch of land surrounded by nature’s beauty. It is the perfect setting for our students to learn, and a wonderful place for our faculty and staff to work.
We feel extremely fortunate to be situated in your backyard, an open and welcoming location where we continue to rise as the global leader in natural health education. It is because of this supportive environment
that we are able to achieve all that we have and hope to achieve in the future.
Now is our 35th year of existence, Bastyr University is making great strides in the worlds of education, research and medicine and we are excited to tell all of you, our East-side neighbors, about the good news flowing from Bastyr, so that you may share in our successes. Consider the supplement an open house of sorts, to the university – a way to get to know us better.
Some of you reading this are already our students, patients, supporters and advocates, but more importantly, we consider each one of you friends, whether we’ve met or not. If you are ever in the neighborhood, we invite you to stop by our campus for a visit or a tour of our organic gardens. In the mean-time, happy ready.

Arrowhead Elementary PTA says thank you to community
We wanted to take a moment and thank you all for helping out at this year’s pancake breakfast event, we couldn’t have pulled this o� without you.
� e weather was great for the Northshore Fire department o� er-ing tours and the Kenmore Police hosting the bike rodeo, Starbucks sta� and their great co� ee that was donated, Party For Less and their do-nated balloons, Westhill preparation set up and their photographer, the energetic boom operator from Health Moves, Pack 564 and their scouts helping with the garden cleanup to the donated pizza from Pagliacci on prep night and many more.
We look forward to next year.� ank you!It was really nice to see such great
support from the community, teach-ers and parents.Michael Reagan, Bill Scott and Tim KeelerArrowhead Elementary PTA Pancake Breakfast co-chairmen
No state income tax
“We the people” have said before, “no, state income tax.” All taxes tax all the people.
Taxes become operating expenses
of business. � e business incorpo-rates all expenses into prices. So, though you don’t see the tax you’ll see higher prices. Taxes cause in� ation further stymying the economy. Taxes make it harder for business to suc-ceed. Taxes cause unemployment.
All taxes tax the poor. Taxes on businesses tax the poor more than direct taxes. Taxes add to a business’ cost base, increasing the margin of pro� t. A $1 tax on business becomes $1. One dollar tax to the poor is just $1.
Our Democrat controlled govern-ment plans to implement a ‘New Tax;’ a state income tax and a host of other ‘new’ taxes in addition to the high taxes you already pay.
How much will you take? How much can we take? Democrats do not want e� ciency and do not want to stop spending your money.
Some taxes are necessary, but where does it end? If government would become e� cient, less tax would be needed. Government ine� ciency costs us our hard earned money.
Government never stops wanting more. Say, “no” to new taxes. Say, “no” to all taxes to force Government e� ciency.Roger W. Hancock
NSD is excellent steward of our money
I would like to take the opportuni-ty to respond to Richard Pelto’s well-timed letter regarding the Northshore
School district administration facility. As many remember the old admin-istration center was located in the Ricketts building in downtown Both-ell. � e Ricketts facility was originally an elementary school constructed in 1948. As the district grew this build-ing no longer met our needs and was becoming increasingly expensive to maintain.
In 2002, the school board asked voters to approve a $12.5 million bond for a new administration facil-ity.Once approved the board received reports on possible locations, vacant land and building design.Construc-tion and land costs came in at $18
million, above what voters ap-proved. � en the Monte Villa property became available: large facility, ample parking, centrally located. � is 6-year-old property had originally
been built for $17.5 million. � e district was able to purchase it
for $6.4 million, well below its origi-nal value and well below what voters had originally approved.
I agree with Mr. Pelto, it is a beauti-ful building, which includes many “extras” we would not have approved on a new construction. � is deal was de� nitely a win for our schools and community.
As co-chair of the 2014 levy/bond committee, I hope this purchase serves as an example of how our district and boards are excellent stewards of our tax dollars.B-Z DavisCo-chair Citizens for
Northshore Schools
Your tax dollars at work
� e State of Washington is facing a $1.2 Billion shortfall for the 2013-2015 biennium.
We are running out of money! All of us have been tightening our � nancial belts, removing the non-essentials from our spending. Should the state not do the same, especially with our tax dollars?
We have heard that we are down to the “bare bones.” Yet $25 million remains in the upcoming budget for Planned Parenthood a� liates. Per-sonal politics aside, we need to ques-tion why, when safety net and other important services are being cut, we are funding an entity listing over $38 million in net assets, six-� gure execu-tive salaries, millions of dollars for “government relations and advocacy,” and other questionable business prac-tices (which have led to criminal and civil lawsuits nationwide).
With so many other urgent needs facing our state, I urge our legislators to consider redirecting these funds to other needed services that are more in line with their (the legislators’) own stated primary goals for this biennium of “jobs, education and a sustainable budget.”
We need to challenge our legisla-tors’ decision to continue to use taxpayer funds to support Planned Parenthood.Pattie Sciola, Kirkland

Mae, 23, claimed in court documents that the two adults stayed overnight dur-ing a council-related business trip in Olympia during their two-year affair. It is still unclear if Bothell tax dollars paid for the trip and hotel stay for the two or if one of the two paid for Mae’s stay. The City of Bothell has still not fulfilled the Bothell Re-
porter’s public records request made last November for receipts and other documen-tation for the trip.
Mae also claimed that much of the affair occurred at the North Creek Law Firm offices.
The former Bothell woman filed a civil lawsuit on Oct. 29, 2012 against Mayor Mark Lamb, his wife Kim and their North Creek Law Firm, for wrongful termination
and invasion of privacy in connection with the affair. In an answer to the complaint, Lamb admitted to a sexual relationship with the woman but denied most other claims in Mae’s suit.
Several Bothell residents asked Lamb to resign from his position as Bothell mayor, claiming his admitted affair drew embarrassment to the city and distracted the coun-cil from important issues.
Mae and the mayor’s relationship began in 2010 when the woman was work-ing at Masala Bar and Grill in Bothell. According to court documents, Lamb and another unidentified member of the Bothell City Council ate dinner at Masala when Lamb allegedly obtained Mae’s phone number.
The woman eventually accepted an offer to work at
the North Creek Law Firm in November 2011 as an intern for $3,000 a month with the caveat that their personal relationship ended, according to the complaint. Mae also allegedly told Lamb that she intended to start seeing other men.
But Mae alleges that Lamb never paid her more than $1,500 a month and “had to beg to be paid.”
Lamb states in legal docu-ments that Mae was a paid intern for the firm starting in November 2011 and was paid $1,500 a month but denied all other allegations. Lamb stated in court documents that the sexual relationship was “consensual.” Their sexual relationship allegedly continued for months almost entirely in Lamb’s office dur-ing working hours.

Elderly driver dies after car strikes utility pole in bothell
An 86-year-old male has died after his car struck a utility pole in Bothell Tuesday morning.
The accident occurred in the 23900 block of 23rd Ave. West around 8:30 a.m. Police closed the road for about two hours while
detectives conducted a collision investigation.
The driver was trans-ported to a local hospital where he died. Investiga-tors do not have conclu-sive information as to the cause of the accident at this time.
The driver’s cause and manner of death, as well as his identity, will be determined and released by the Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office.
CorrectionSome of the elementary schools in the north end of
the Northshore School District are over capacity and the potential bond will be in a similar range to the current bond that will be expiring. Both issues were not reported as such in the Reporter’s April 5 story on the district’s plans for a new high school and grade configuration.
The Reporter strives for accuracy in all of its report-age and regrets the errors.

Northshore School District Superintendent Larry Francois, Puget Sound Energy’s Andy Wappler, Foundation President Sherry Krainick and Cascadia Community College President Dr. Eric Murray all spoke about the importance of increased
commitment from commu-nity members in support of local education.
The event also featured students from Northshore Junior High’s award-winning Symphonic Band, Kenmore Elementary School’s drumming group and Wellington Elementary
School’s Helping Hands service program. Each pro-gram received Northshore Schools Foundation grants in 2012-13.
“We wanted to high-light how these programs help grow confidence and provide relevant learning opportunities for students,” said Dalziel. “The student speakers really hit home how the right programs can be the motivating factor between just graduating, and graduating ready to be successful. Everything from a 6th grade student singing out a cappella to a room full of adults, to three young men sharing just a piece of their educational journey all builds on success. These students are the ones who do the hard work but I be-lieve it’s our responsibility to give them the opportu-
nity.”The Foundation is
sponsored by more than 65 local and regional compa-nies. Microsoft, McKinstry, Boeing and the Friends of the Foundation provided $39,000 in challenge match funds for people making gifts of more than $200 at the event.
Title sponsors for the event were Cornerstone General Contractors and Evergreen Medical Supply. Molbaks and the Windermere Foundation were honored as premiere sponsors. Major spon-sors included Northwest Totem Cellars, Puget Sound Energy Foundation, BioLife Solutions and Brent Plan-ning Solutions.

With the help of the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce, Kenmore businesses are becoming a force to be reckoned with. Known as the Kenmore Business Alliance (KBA), Kenmore business men and women are organizing to give Kenmore businesses a unified voice and to create more synergies and business opportunities for each other. There are over 1,000 businesses in Kenmore, and there is untapped potential for these businesses to get organized and network with one another.
The KBA started with a small committee of passionate Kenmore business people within the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce. Annie Harkess of Kenmore’s Key Bank led the way, and more businesses followed. In recent months the committee gave birth to the Kenmore Business Alliance, whose mission is to:
• Create synergies and networking opportunities for Kenmore businesses to help each other and do business with each other.
• Provide a two-way communication conduit between the business community and the City.
The committee, with the help of the Chamber, built an e-newsletter that will be sent monthly and include upcoming City, Chamber and KBA events as well as current/upcoming local issues.
The KBA is also co-hosting with the City an after-hours networking event on Thursday, May 16 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Kenmore City Hall. We hope to see you there! This is just the beginning — there will be more events sponsored by the KBA.
The Kenmore Business Alliance is an exciting opportunity to get involved, help improve the business climate, and grow your own business. You do not need to be a member of the Chamber to get on the KBA e-newsletter mailing list. To get on the list or to learn more, contact Brittany Caldwell at Brittany@bothellchamber.com.

A scarlet hummingbird pauses between the blossoms of a cherry
tree in Patrick O’Brien’s front yard before it � its past several plum trees, grape vines and red cedar trees.
More than 6 feet overhead, a solar panel array sits atop four wooden piers over the Kenmore resident’s driveway.
“I like to keep it green,” said O’Brien, who has a degree in alternative energy from Western Washington Uni-versity and is a former board member of Solar Washing-ton. He put up his 20-panel solar array three years ago. But a� er a long battle with the city of Kenmore, o� cials recently ordered him to take the panels down during a recent appeal.
“I like to have green energy and I’m shaking my head at anybody doing what they’re doing,” said O’Brien of the city’s ruling.
Challenging the city’s decision, he � led an appeal in King County Superior Court in February. He claims the city erred in its ruling because the city does not have an ordinance that deals with the use and installation of solar
panels. His solar panels became
an issue with the city in 2010 when the city cited him for failing to obtain a building permit to install the solar panels to a structure he built.
But it was in 2007 when a neighbor who he was at odds with over a retaining wall in his backyard made a complaint to the city. He said the city waited several years to investigate the issue he believes because he became outspoken about several city issues.
As a member of People for an Environmentally Re-sponsible Kenmore (PERK), he has spoken out against the Kenmore Industrial Park that his home overlooks.
“When it gets going, it’s noxious,” he said of the plant. “So, yeah, I painted a big circle on myself.”
A code compliance o� cer came out to his house in 2010 and ended up citing him for eight violations, including his solar panels, the retaining wall and blackberry bushes that were in the city’s right-of-way.
� e city has since dropped all of the code violations except for the retaining wall and the solar panels, which are both subject to the recent
litigation. According to the city’s notice of violation, the solar panel “roof” poses a threat to the public’s safety.
However, O’Brien says the structure is sturdy and it is not a roof.
“In three attempts, he tried to call that a roof, which it clearly isn’t,” he said of the city’s code compliance o� cer Bryan Hampson. “I said, ‘how many roofs have one-inch gaps in them, how many roofs make electricity, how many roofs are built on aircra� grade aluminum designed to withstand 300 mile an hour winds?’”
� e structure consists of wooden piers that he built 5 feet into the ground and is reinforced with rebar cages and concrete.
“I’m telling you, go up there and shake that thing, it’s not going anywhere. � at is stout,” he said.
Before O’Brien installed the support structure and solar panels in 2010, he said he obtained a permit for the structure from the city. He also obtained the necessary electrical permits from the Washington State Depart-ment of Labor and Industries and Puget Sound Energy inspected the structure.
O’Brien’s solar panel
array is treated by the state of Washington and Puget Sound Energy as a utility and he sells electricity to the company.
“I get about 18 to 19 cents a kilowatt hour for the electric-ity I make,” he said. “Right now I’m making about $650 a year of electricity. � at’s what the panels are yielding. But I’m also using that energy too, so it’s on top of what I use.”
Rather than put the solar panels on the roof of his home, he placed them on the structure to allow him more capacity to add up to 20 more panels in the future. He also placed the structure over his driveway to limit his footprint of impermeable surfaces, ac-cording to city guidelines.
� e city cited him for a� xing solar panels to a permitted structure without obtaining a permit. However, he said the city currently does not have any ordinances in place in regards to solar panel installations.
“I was told by the city in-spector Bryan Hampson that [the addition of solar panels] could be unsafe,” he noted.
City o� cials say the panels “alter the loads imposed on the structure,” according to a January 2011 letter to O’Brien
from the city.“� e structure was not
structurally designed to carry the additional live loads caused by the solar panels on the structure (wind and snow),” the letter continues, citing a city code that states the addition of the panels constitutes an “alteration” to the structure. � e code states that any owner who intends to alter a structure must obtain a building permit.
But O’Brien argues that there are at least a dozen other solar installations throughout the city that weren’t required to get a permit. One of those solar panel arrays is on the roof of a home about two blocks away from him.
“So it’s an unfair applica-tion of a non-existent law,” he noted.
Rosemary Larson, an attorney with the law � rm In-slee Best, which is represent-ing the city of Kenmore in the King County Superior Court appeal, spoke on behalf of city o� cials.
She said some residents are required to obtain a building permit to install solar panels “to the extent a building permit is required,” said Larson, noting that it would depend on the structure. “So it’s not permitting the energy generation aspects - that is permitted through the state. [� e process] does require a building permit if solar

ENGAGEMENT
Trisha Palmer and Don DeHart are
happy to announce their engagement and
wedding this upcoming July. Trisha grew up in Edmonds, graduating from EHS. Don grew up in Woodinville and graduated from BHS.
The couple currently live in Bothell.
BY REPORTER STAFF
Arne and Crystal Rosander — a married couple
responsible for a number of crimes throughout the greater Puget Sound, including Bothell — were recently sentenced after more than a year of investigations conducted by multiple law enforce-ment agencies.
The investigation began Jan. 9, 2012 when a Redmond Police officer took a car prowl report.
The victim reported multiple items stolen, including her wallet, which contained several credit and debit cards. Redmond Police Depart-ment (RPD) spokesper-son Jim Bove said after
fraudulent transactions were made with them, an investigation led officers to the suspect names.
“We learned that Belle-vue and Bothell police departments had active cases on them, too,” Bove said. “Our inves-tigators took the lead on the case and on Feb. 2, 2012, served a search warrant on their residence where they located a large amount of stolen prop-erty, including stolen mail, sports equipment, electronics, purses, cloth-ing, methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia, a stolen motorcycle, tools and a shotgun.”
He said the Rosand-ers were linked to 23
total crimes including 11 in Redmond and oth-ers in Bellevue, Bothell, Issaquah, Kirkland, King County, Lynnwood, Mer-
cer Island, Renton and Seattle. The crimes
ranged from mail theft, car prowls, motorcycle theft, fraud and storage
burglary.Arne and Crys-
tal Rosander both pled guilty to several counts of mail theft and second-degree identity theft. Arne Rosander was sen-tenced to 17 months in prison followed by three
years of Department of Corrections (DOC) supervision. Crystal Rosander was sentenced to eight months in prison followed by three years of DOC supervision. Both suspects were also ordered to pay several thousand dollars in resti-tution to the victims.
“This goes to show the importance of reporting crimes, no matter how small they may be and keeping a good record of your valuables, credit cards, electronics and jewelry,” Bove said.

panels will be put on top of a structure.”
During the appeal before the city, the hearing examiner ruled that O’Brien must take down his solar panels, which he has since taken down. He was not required to take down the structure itself.
O� cials said he must also obtain a building permit from the city before the pan-els go back up.
“� en I have to go through this permitting process that’s non-existent – there’s no punch list for it,” said O’Brien.
� e city also ordered him to pay a $1,000 � ne and said if he didn’t take down the solar panels, he would be charged a � ne of $200 per day.
In his court appeal, he seeks to reverse the city’s de-cision to have him take down his solar panels and obtain a building permit. He also seeks an award of attorneys’ fees and any further relief the court deems necessary.
O’Brien contends that he satis� ed all state requirements for solar panel installation. In addition, the city charges per-mit fees based on the value of
materials and labor used for the installation. However, so-lar installations of this nature are exempt from taxation, according to the lawsuit, and O’Brien argues the permit fees for this installation would constitute a tax.
“You can’t tax green energy in the state of Washington,” he said. “� is could be a huge precedent because any county or city o� cial could roll into wind, biomass, ethanol, solar, and say, ‘hey, I have a Mr. Green Jeans approach to billing you for my jurisdiction and I feel like charging you ‘X’ on this solely based on my understanding of what I think it costs for that equipment. And that’s basically what we’re talking about here.”
He said this issue is about local jurisdictions “taking control” of green energy.
“To leave it in the hands of neophytes with little to no training and an incentive to make it a revenue source, that’s not what energy inde-pendence is all about and it certainly doesn’t do anything positive for government, the people or the industry in this state if we allow that to happen.”
