County installs flashing school zone signs at Carriage CrestBY HEIDI SANDERS

[email protected]

Getting to school will soon become safer for stu-dents and their families at Carriage Crest Elemen-tary.

The King County Department of Transportation last week installed two flashing speed limit signs in the school zone, just north and south of the Kent School District elementary, 18235 140th Ave. SE in Renton, which is between Southeast 192nd Street and Southeast Petrovitsky Road near Fairwood.

The signs, which will flash when children are present to warn motorist of the 20-mile-per-hour speed limit, should be operational in the next couple of weeks, said Jeff Switzer, spokesman for the King County Department of Transportation.

Previously the school zone was marked with

smaller signs indicating the school zone speed limit, but were not equipped with flashing lights. The speed limit on the five-lane road is 40 miles per hour when students aren’t present.

Carriage Crest Principal Susanne Wick, who has been at the school for 13 years, said cars speeding past the school has always been a problem but has become more of a concern over the past few years as more students have started walking to school along 140th.

“With the increase of traffic on the road it has become more apparent that there is a problem,” Wick said.

Wick said she and parents had been talking to the county about the need for the signs for more than a year, and Carriage Crest was 13th on the county’s list to get the signage.

Renton Western Wear building nominated for historical statusBY BRIAN BECKLEY,

[email protected]

The Renton Western Wear building on Third Street South is being reviewed this week for nomination to the National Reg-ister of Historic Places.

The building is a former F.W. Wool-worth’s building built in the mid-1950s and, according to the nomination docu-ments is historically significant to Renton because of its role in helping downtown

Renton grow and develop. It also is consid-ered a “representative example” of the type of building used in the “waning years of the International Style.”

According to the documents, the International Style includes a rejection of historical styles, a machine aesthetic, a rejection of ornament and a simplification of form and unnecessary detail.

“The store represents a last gasp effort of Woolworth’s to change the retail face

of downtowns in rural America before the shift occurred to suburban shopping centers,” the documents read.

Among the design techniques high-lighted by the nomination papers are the use of glass only when necessary, the large awning, which also provided a platform for signage and a focus on the horizontal form of the building.

Construction of the store began in 1953

N South Asian Film Festival returns to Renton

BY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

For the second year in a row, the largest South Asian film festival in the country will be bringing the party to Renton for a weekend of movies and fun, including the festival’s closing gala and awards ceremony.

The Seattle South Asian Film Festival kicks off Thursday in Seattle and will make its way to Renton next weekend, where the group will close out the two-week event with a gala and awards ceremony at Carco Theatre. Roxy Cin-ema and Carco will each host movies during the festival.

“Renton is honored to become part of the largest South Asian film festival in the United States. Hosting the Seattle South Asian Film Festival in Renton allows us to showcase our thriving arts and culture scene, bring visitors and business to Renton, and promote our goal of becoming an inclusive city that celebrates and engages our diverse community,” Renton Mayor Denis Law said in a press release.

This year’s event, the festival’s 10th an-

niversary, includes a total of 59 films, both feature-length and shorts, from nine different countries. More than 24 filmmakers are also scheduled to attend the 12-day festival, giv-

ing audience members a chance to ask questions about the films and learn more about life in the countries where they were made.

This year’s theme is “Coming Home” and there is a focus on Sri Lanka, including several recent films from the island na-tion, being shown for the

first time in the U.S.The festival also includes a two-day sympo-

sium at the University of Washington (Seattle/Bothell) called “Human Rights and the Politics of Filmmaking in South Asia,” sponsored by South Asia Center, scheduled for Oct. 19-20.

Renton showings begin at 3 p.m. Oct. 24 at the Roxy with “Khwada,” an Indian film. The final films of the year are “The Spectaular Jihad of Taz Rahim” and the short film “Bayberries Have Ripened,” from Nepal, which will be shown beginning at 4 p.m. Oct. 25 as part of the closing night gala and awards ceremony at Carco.

Obituary

Frode Langelo, a parent who became aware of the need for the signs when his children started attending Carriage Crest last year, started a GoFundMe ac-count last month to raise money for the flashing signs.

Last week, the county’s transporta-tion department announced it would install and cover the cost of the signs.

Switzer said a “well-intentioned staff member” had suggested the fundraising to the parents, but that isn’t an ap-proach the department takes.

“When we become aware yesterday (Oct. 8) of this fundraising, we decided to step in to try to get school zone signs

installed,” Switzer said.The signs cost about $12,000, Switzer

said.Langelo is pleased the county stepped

in.“This is just wonderful,” he said. “We

are just so happy, all of us parents who have been working on it.”

Any donations made to the GoFund-Me account will be refunded, Langelo said.

He hopes drivers will slow down when they see the flashing signs.

“A lot of people I have talked to have been driving there for years and years,” he said. “They didn’t even know the (old) signs were there.”

[ LIGHTS from page 1] her mind and did not intend to run for re-election.

Council incumbents Ed Prince, Ruth Perez and Don Persson are running unop-posed.

There is one countywide measure on the ballot, Proposition 1, which would increase property taxes to provide funding to im-prove well-being of children, youth, families and communities.

King County Elections mailed ballots on Wednesday. Voters’ pamphlets were mailed separately and may arrive close to, but on a different day than ballots.

Voters may also check MyVoterGuide online www.kingcounty.gov/elections for a

customized voters’ pamphlet.“Voting is one of the most important ac-

tions we do as citizens, so be sure to make it count by getting your ballot returned on time,” said Sherril Huff, director of King County Elections, in a news release.

Huff decided not seek another term as elections director.

Return envelopes with ballots must be postmarked no later than 8 p.m. on Election Day or hand-delivered to the King County Elections headquarters on Grady Way in Renton, permanent drop-box locations, scheduled ballot drop-off vans and Acces-sible Voting Centers.

The elections website offers locations for all those drop-off options.

Donna Rae (Balzarini) BurtonJune 10, 1933 – September 30, 2015

Donna passed away on September 30 surrounded by close family and friends.

Donna was born in Renton to Louis and Nice Balzarini, lived her early life on Renton Hill, and graduated from Renton High School in 1951. During her high school years, she met her sweetheart, Ollie Burton. They were married in February of 1954, where they settled in Renton to raise their family.

Donna’s greatest delight was her grandchildren. From toddlers to teens, she and Ollie rarely missed a social or

sporting event in which they were involved. Donna also enjoyed the fellowship of her parish, St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic Church in Renton, where she spent several years as a volunteer with the Visitation Guild.

She was an avid fan of all the local pro sports teams, and very rarely missed a game on TV. Donna was everyone’s favorite aunt, and in true Italian form, whenever there was a family or community event, she would personally take it upon herself to supply enough food to make sure everyone had plenty to eat.

Donna is survived by her husband, Ollie Burton of 61 years; her children; Clarice Hunter, husband Dana, Gayle Cole, husband Dave, and John Burton. Her surviving grandchildren are Kelsey and Kyle Cole; and Alexandra, Kellen, and Rachel Hunter. She is survived by siblings Louis Balzarini, wife Chris; and Vicki Marsh, husband Rick. She was preceded in death by her siblings Jean, John, and Nadine.

In recognition of Donna’s 35-year career as a bookkeeper for the Salvation Army, donations may be made to the Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center (ARC) at 1010 4th Avenue

away October 11, 2015 at home surrounded by his family. He was born November 25, 1932 in Seattle, WA to the late Anton and Stephanie (Osnick) Dime.

Gary is survived by his loving wife of 42 years Barbara (Kroll) Dime, sons Cameron (Kimberly), Larry (Paula)

and Gary Jr., six grandchildren and one great-grandson.

Gary and family moved to Renton, WA in 1939 where he attended Henry Ford Elementary and graduated from Renton High in 1951. He attended the University of Washington, was a member of the ROTC, Kappa Sigma Fraternity and graduated in 1955 with a BA in � nance.

After graduation, Gary entered the United States Air Force serving as an instructor pilot until 1959. Active in the reserves, he was recalled to active duty in 1962 and in 1964 r eturned to active reserves until 1966, resigning in 1972 at the rank of Captain.

He was a member of the Renton, Seattle and Bellevue Rotary clubs, serving as President of the Renton Rotary in 1969. He also served as a member of the Renton Municipal Airport Board.

Gary began his brokerage career at Dean Witter (Morgan Stanley), retiring in 2001 after 37 years. He was an avid Husky fan and University of Washington supporter. He also enjoyed � ying, playing golf and playing his father’s button box accordion. Gary and his band partner, Ted Lunka, kept their Slovenian heritages alive playing at local, Washington and Oregon, dances and festivals. Gary & Barbara especially enjoyed spending their retirement winters in Rancho Mirage, CA.

Cremation is planned and at Gary’s request private services will be held.

In lieu of � owers, donations may be made to the University of Washington, School of Business.

It’s already time to get ready for spring

The third week of Oc-tober is still a good time to plant spring blooming bulbs, add trees and shrubs to the landscape and to dig and divide overgrown perennials such as daylilies and hosta.

After a first frost browns the foliage of cannas and tuberous begonias,ww cut the top of the plant off at ground level and lift the bulb from the soil. You can store winter tender bulbs in a brown paper bag inside a garage or garden shed where the tubers will be cold but not freezing. If you plan on overwintering your geraniums or tender fuchsias now is the time to move them indoors.w

Q. We have a big leaf maple tree in

our yard that drops many leaves. Must I collect all these leaves from the lawn? I would rather just chop up the leaves when I mow and allow them to improve the soil. My wife insists these fallen leaves will kill the lawn. Your opinion? R.T., Tacoma

A. The wife wins on this one. Make

your lawn happy by raking the large maple leaves be-fore you mow. Not only will this allow sunlight to reach the lawn all winter but you can store the fallen leaves inside large plastic garbage bags and let them rot all

winter to create wonderful leaf mold.

Be sure to add a shovel of damp soil to the bag of leaves to provide the mi-croscopic critters that will break down and transform the maple leaves. You must also poke holes into the plastic bag of leaves (I use a screwdriver to do this) as air will speed up the de-composition of the leaves. Store the bags of leaves out of sight behind your shrubs or in a shed.

In the spring you can spread this leaf mold on top of your beds to smother weeds and seal in moisture. Need a shortcut? Rake the fallen leaves into your shrub beds just to get them off the lawn quickly. Trees and shrubs appreciate a blanket of fallen leaves – lawn grasses do not.

Q. What is the secret to keeping

those big beautiful heads of ornamental cabbage and kale free of slugs? Every year my winter pansies and ornamental cabbage turn into lacework from tiny slugs. These baby slugs seem to hide in the folds of the cabbage leaves and slug bait does not work. P.S.,

Olympia

A. Sounds like you need the slug

melting, kitchen cupboard remedy of ammonia and water. Fill an empty Win-dex spray bottle with one third ammonia (buy this at the grocery store) diluted with two-thirds water. Go out at night and spray the tiny slugs that feed on the cabbage. The ammonia will melt the slugs on contact. It will also act as a fertilizer as ammonia converts to nitrogen.

The reason you use a Windex bottle is to remind you that this mixture is also good for washing windows. If you do not recycle a spray bottle be sure to label any product that is not in its original container.

Q. When is it too late to reseed a

lawn? Also I tested my soil where I will seed a new lawn and it is on the acid spectrum. What time of year should I add lime to make my soil less acid?

N.W., Bonney Lake

A. First, I do not recommend

seeding a new lawn after the middle of October unless you are a gambling gardener and can predict a warm, mild winter.

Second, you will score a jackpot anytime you add lime to lawns in Western Washington as our soils are naturally acid due to the high rainfall. It is like doubling down on your bet as adding lime also makes the nutrients in the soil more available to the lawn grasses and lime helps to break up clay soil so it drains more quickly.

Lime also discourages moss from taking over the lawn. Add lime to old or new lawns any time of year just not on the same day that you fertilize. Lime is not a fertilizer and will not give instant results but improves the soil gradually over time.

These days, Democratic U.S. Sen. Patty Murray isn’t surprised to get a text from the man who may be the next Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Washington’s liberal senator and conserva-tive Wisconsin Republican Rep. Paul Ryan are texting buddies and have been since constructing a budget agreement in 2013 in the turbulence following one of the longest government shutdowns in U.S. history.

It lasted 16 days during which barricades went up around national monuments and funding stopped flowing to programs serving children, veterans and seniors. Some 800,000 federal workers got furloughed and almost twice that many reported to work not know-ing when they’d get paid.

Congress passed a short-term spending bill to end the shutdown, then its leaders tapped budget committee chiefs Ryan and Murray (Democrats still controlled the Senate) to construct a longer-term deal.

They succeeded and in the process earned one another’s respect, a valued commodity in the political marketplace.

Now, with Ryan getting intensely recruited to be the next House speaker, Murray is in a position to offer an informed view

of his merits but is reluctant to say anything construable as praise out of concern for his political well-being.

“I don’t want to hurt his chances,” Mur-ray said Tuesday in Everett after touring a job-training center. “I think he’s shown that he can bring people from his side together. I think that they do need that right now but I don’t want to hurt his chances by champion-ing him.”

A number of House Republicans voted against that 2013 agreement believing Ryan compromised too much. It’s unclear whether this will prevent many of those same GOP lawmakers from accepting him as speaker if Ryan says he will do it.

Getting a public vote of confidence from a liberal Democratic senator might not help. She wouldn’t say if she’s texted him any ad-vice privately.

Nonetheless, Murray did put forth what amounted to an outline of a reference letter.

“Obviously he and I disagree on a lot,” she said. “But he also… is one of the adults in the room who understands our country has to function and that people have to work together to make it function.”

The federal government is headed for another malfunction. Funding runs out Dec. 11 and there will be a shutdown if Congress doesn’t act.

The threat isn’t being taken seriously enough by lawmakers or the public, Murray said.

R E N T O N

Many factors can lead to homelessness

Thank you for providing a glimpse of the 90-minute discussion that was held Monday at the City Council meeting regarding chronic homelessness and the city’s response to residents’ worries (“Council Talks Chronic Homelessness, City’s Hands Are Tied,” Oct. 9). Your article discussed that many Renton residents want the police to “do something” about the homeless population, “regardless if there is a crime being committed or not.”

I would like to expand on councilman Greg Taylor’s comment regarding the need for open discussion with residents about the “causes of homelessness.”

Public surveys and opinions in King County show that many people hold grossly inaccurate views of the homeless in regard to who they are. These views often lead people to fear those that are homeless, and because of those false beliefs, instead of getting the homeless the help they need, public officials, residents and the public at large often stigmatize, ignore or label those that are homeless as “violent” or “criminals.”

Those that suffer from homelessness are not criminals. They are ordinary people who are often dealing with extraordinary events such as divorce, stress, loss, economic hardships, physical disability, chemical dependency or mental illness.

In order to erase the notion that the homeless are “unsafe,” we as residents of Renton and King County must understand that homelessness can happen to anyone, and the people living on the streets of Renton could be your neighbor, co-worker, or a loved one.

It is only with this dialogue and education that that residents and policy makers of Renton can truly help end homelessness for good.

City, churches make impact in lives of homeless

Causes of homelessness varied, complicatedI am grateful for the Renton

Reporter’s coverage of the conversation on “chronic homelessness” in Renton (Oct. 9, page 1). REACH (Renton Ecumenical Associa-tion of Churches) has been working on the ground with our neighbors who are on the streets for a few years now.

We operate a meal program three days a week, a breakfast five mornings a week and a family center that offers daytime resources and night-

time shelter. It is our mission to provide skilled trained staff on site to build the type of support that it takes to help people move towards stabil-ity.

In the past two years we have moved 68 families into transitional housing and have been with hundreds of folks as they overcome their barriers to stability. Based on our experience and vision we want to add to the conversation on chronic homelessness.

Homelessness, chronic or otherwise, is com-plex. The reasons for folks being on the street

my office here in Renton for over 20 years. For the past three to four years I have volunteered with the Renton Ecumenical Association of Churches (REACH). I’ve counseled with the homeless on addiction, mental health, and physical problems as well as mopped floors, washed dishes, and served meals.

Renton’s homeless population in general is a far gentler group of people than you will find in Seattle. They are, across the

board, people who have been wounded by dreadful life circumstances that have left most of them desperate for coping skills and a compassionate social order that understands the needs of the poor.

The stories of these people’s lives should tear at any sensitive person’s heart. Nobody will hear those stories, or be able to make an impact to change it, as long as we set ourselves apart from them in our privileged economic positions and remain fearful of another who we don’t try to understand.

Chronic homelessness is among us for

a ton of reasons, many of which reflect our eroding social values of kindness, goodness, and empathy. This might be why the churches of Renton are having a bigger impact softening the hardness of the homeless population than in places like Seattle. But the churches alone can’t provide low-income housing, adequate mental health counseling, adequate addiction treatment, or sufficient facilities to serve this growing population.

I congratulate the City of Renton – its police, fire, City Hall staff, and elected officials for making a much stronger and strident attempt to help the homeless than many of our sister cities in South King County. The City of Renton and REACH are working diligently to make room for everyone, even our economically disadvantaged brothers and sisters.

Thank you, Renton.Mark Fredricksen, ND,

Renton

Don’t pass new gun laws, enforce what we have

The recent killings have resulted in

renewed call for additional gun laws. There is much talk about the number of guns owned by the killers which probably has little or nothing to do with these events. It’s not guns that kill, it’s men.

There has been an ongoing concern about firearm ownership for some time, but I don’t recall much if any for calls to identify suspect individuals and investigate the underlying causes and possible solutions for preventing the kinds of shootings we have recently seen. These are deeply troubled individuals and what is really needed is a better approach to identifying and helping them.

I doubt there is any need for more gun laws, what is needed is more stringent application of those that are already on the books.

Those calling for more gun control tend to be irrationally afraid of guns and see them only as instruments of killing not understanding that 99 percent of guns are used for hunting, plinking, target shooting and self protection.

“I’ve been nervous for awhile because I really think the intensity of where we were two years ago hasn’t been matched,” she said. “I think people just assume we’ll get it done now and they’re not aware of the in-ner politics of the tea party right now. They are intent on shutting it down.”

Though Murray doesn’t think the public is much concerned with who is elected House speaker, she knows nothing will

happen until someone is in that seat.Should that someone be Ryan?“He’s in a caucus that’s pretty divided

about what they want their future to be,” she said. “What he has the capability to do is to be able to hear what all factions want and to be able to deliver what he can from that.”

Maybe he’ll text her with his decision.Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog

are as varied and real as the reasons they cannot easily find a way off. They have been met with trauma, lack of places to find help when they have most needed it, stigma and barriers that include mental and physical illness, layoffs, abusive rela-tionships and loss of family.

All of these are struggles that those with homes and other resources also face but when a person doesn’t have safe place to be these barriers are unimaginably difficult to surmount. It takes patient relationship and trust building to get a person to where they can start to think about over-coming the barriers that are

in their way.The police are partners in

this work but it is unfair to them and to our communi-ty to rely so heavily on law enforcement to solve this issue. We must have trained well-resourced profession-als (and the volunteers they train) on the ground doing the work it takes to help people who could not find

help when they needed it most get back to the life they so desperately want and need.

The solutions to home-lessness must be creative and varied. We need sup-port on the ground but we also need affordable acces-sible housing, jobs that pay a living wage, understand-ing and relationship with

those who are outside, and serious well-funded services.

I have spent much time with the folks on our streets in Renton. As with any community, there can be

some problematic behav-ior but the community as a whole is not unsafe. We must not conflate criminal behavior and homelessness.

If we will reach out and get to know these human beings that are suffering, we will see this issue dif-ferently. These are human beings just like those of us who are housed. They have complex, rich, and often difficult stories and those of us with resources will only find what we need – a community where everyone can feel safely at home - if we get to know them and provide services that will do the long, difficult, but ex-tremely rewarding work of walking with those without homes until they find what they need.

I am looking forward to continued discussion on this issue.

Each person can make decisions about their own health care. A person can also indicate whether they want artificial life support to prolong life after the point of natural death by signing a Health Care Directive. The earlier version was called a Directive to Physicians. These documents are often erroneously referred to as a living will.

A Health Care Directive can express decisions about end-of-life health care that may be deemed futile.

A new mural celebrating the diversity of the Skyway community was completed last month near the intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. Way and South 129th Street. The new artwork was designed by Katie Mark and was selected from a group of designs submitted by members of the community. It replaces the “I See Skyway” mural, which was painted in 2010 but had been badly tagged with graffiti and became an eyesore. The mural was paid for through a King County 4Culture grant as well as through donations from local businesses. Community members painted the 175-foot wall with the help of professional muralist Angela Larsen, beginning in late August and finishing Sept. 22. PHOTOS BY BRIAN BECKLEY, Renton Reporter

and it first opened the following March.In 1955, the store expanded, with a portion used for a lunch counter and other parts

being leased to a women’s fashion store.The current building includes both the original construction and the expansion.After Woolworth’s the building housed Renton Western Wear for 62 years until it closed

in 2013.Dave Brethauer and his wife purchased the building about 18 months ago and are work-

ing to get the historic certification. Brethauer said in an email that they have also changed their original renovation plans to accommodate a more “restorative” approach to the building.

“We are renovating the first floor to lease to new tenants and we will be moving our business, Memory Box, into the upstairs of the building - but we are working with the Historic Certification requirements to preserve the look of the building as we upgrade,” he said.

In a Committee of the Whole meeting in September, Community Development Project Manager John Collum said the building has also been authorized to receive funding as

part of the Community Development Block Grant Facade Improvement Program. Accord-ing to Collum, approximately $500,000 in work will be done to restore and improve the exterior of the building. Of that, about half will come from grant funding.

It will be one of the first and certainly the largest use of that funding thus far and Col-lum said it was important as the city hopes it will spur other property owners to do the same.

The Governor’s Advisory Council on Historic Preservation will meet to discuss the nomination at 9 a.m. today, Friday, in Dayton, Wash.

N Hazen picks up two wins, honors Evergreen prior to gameBY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

The Hazen soccer team picked up two important league wins this week, besting Lindbergh and Evergreen, but perhaps their best moment of the week came before they even took the field.

On Tuesday, prior to the Highlanders 7-0 win over Evergreen, the team, which has a tradition of wearing different-colored hair ribbons for each game, came out wearing green ribbons, Evergreen’s color, to honor the relationship between the school and to recognize the difficulties Evergreen has been through in the past few weeks. Hazen presented Evergreen with green ribbons of their own during warm-ups and both teams wore them during the match.

On the field, Madison Taylor had two goals and two assists for the High-landers in the win. Taylor Lenton, Madison Kem, Nicole Lenton, Anna Browne and Bella Colsurdo joined Taylor in scoring goals, while Amy Warmenhoven (2), Madison Kaiser, Valencia Poston and Colasurdo each also picked up assists.

On Oct. 8, Hazen beat Lindbergh 2-0 to get back on the winning track after playing Kennedy to a draw last week.

The Highlanders got on the board early in the first half when in the fifth minute, a hard shot by Lenton was misplayed by a Lindbergh defender and found its way into the net.

The score stayed 1-0 until 15 minutes into the second half when War-menhoven beat her defender to the corner and made a pass to Lenton, who put it in the net for the insurance goal.

For the game, Hazen outshot Lindbergh 16-5, but Coach Ken Matthews said Lindbergh’s defense played strong and essentially shut them out in the first half.

Hazen improves to 6-3-2 overall and 2-0 in the Seamount. They play at Foster on Thursday.

The Hazen and Evergreen soccer teams pose for a photo prior to Tuesday’s game. COURTESY IMAGE

The Hazen girls cross-country team, above, won a meet against Lindbergh and Renton on Oct. 8. It is the first time the Hazen girls have

defeated Lindbergh in more than 10 years. The Lindbergh team won the meet on the boys side. SUBMITTED

Big win for Hazen girls

Renton rallies for 14 to beat HazenBY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected] Renton Indians rallied for 14 in

the fourth quarter to up-end the Hazen Highlanders 37-34 on Friday in an intra-district matchup at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Kaleb McGee racked up 216 yards and scored four times for Hazen in the losing effort.

The Indians, coming off a close loss to Foster the week before, came out hot and scored two touchdowns in the first quar-ter. Hazen matched with one of their own and the teams headed into the second with Renton up 14-8.

But the Highlanders responded in the second, racking up 20 points and hold-

ing Renton to just 3 and the teams hit the locker room with Hazen up 28-17.

Defense dominated the third quarter as the teams put up 6 points each to put the Indians down 34-23 as the teams entered the final frame.

The fourth quarter belonged to Renton who scored twice to go ahead and then held on to win 37-34.

No individual statistics were available for Renton.

With the win, Renton improved to 2-4 overall and 2-2 in the Seamount. The Indians played Meadowdale on Thursday at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Hazen falls to 1-5 overall and 1-3 in the league. They play at Highline on Friday.

Burnett, Transit Center to re-open MondayBY BRIAN BECKLEY

[email protected]

The downtown Transit Center and Burnett Avenue between South Second and South Third streets will re-open Monday following a closure to repair pedestrian walkways

Traffic patterns downtown and around the transit center specifically have been altered due to the work, including the temporary re-location of bus stops through the week-end to South Second Street and South Third Street.

Buses normally stopping at Bay 1, including the F line to The Landing, the 101, 105, 143 to Black Diamond, 148, 153 and 167 to the U District, will stop on Third between Burnett and Williams Avenues.

Buses normally stopping at Bay 2, including the 240, 342, 560 to Bellevue, 566 to Overlake, 907 and 908 will stop on Third Street between Williams and Wells Avenues.

Buses normally stopping at Bay 3, including the F line to

Burien, the 106, 107, 143 to Seattle, 167 to the Renton Park and Ride and 169 will stop on South Second between Wil-liams and Burnett Avenues.

Buses normally stopping at Bay 4, including the 560 to Westwood Village and the 566 to Auburn, will stop on South Second between Wells and Williams Avenues.

According to Public Works Director Gregg Zimmer-mann, four of the ornamental pedestrian crosswalks around the Downtown Transit Center have tinted pavers that are deteriorating and have become tripping hazards, requiring maintenance and replacement.

Zimmermann said the after evaluating the best methods to make repairs, the city opted to close Burnett Avenue so crews would not have to worry about buses.

Repairs are expected to be completed over the weekend and the road and Transit Center are scheduled to re-open Monday.

Part of Burnett Avenue is closed through Monday for construction. BRIAN BECKLEY, Renton Reporter

Threat made to Lindbergh High School | POLICE BLOTTERBY DEAN A. RADFORD

[email protected]

The following information was compiled from Renton Police Department case reports.

A Renton Police officer received a report of a threat to Lindbergh High School the following Monday while providing security at a football game Sept. 25 at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Students told a Lindbergh school official that they were approached by another student, who said, “if you want to live, don’t go to school on Monday.”

The school official located the student at the game, who was interviewed in the stadium’s office. The 15-year-old student apologized; he didn’t mean to cause alarm. He and other students had found a website that talked about not going to school for a variety of reasons. So he decided to tell students, don’t go to school on Monday.

He said he nor anyone else online planned to do any-thing to harm students at Lindbergh or any school.

The officer explained the seriousness of the situation to the student, who apologized. A meeting was planned for the Monday at the school.

MAN TAIL-GATED, STABBED: A 24-year-old Bothell man was injured late Sept. 26 when he was stabbed by a man who tailgated him on the way down the hill from Skyway, apparently wanting him to go faster.

The confrontation happened in the Fred Meyer parking lot, after two men got out of an SUV, followed by one or two more. During the fight, the victim was stabbed, but he doesn’t know why.

He suffered a stab wound to the upper chest and was taken to Harborview Medical Center in critical condition. He was released the next day; he would have died had the knife gone any deeper.
