# OLD FIRE HOUSE TEEN CENTER — COMPLETE FORENSIC ANALYSIS V2

## PRA Document Dump Investigation
### Compiled February 13, 2026

---

## EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Analysis of 13,649+ documents from multiple PRA installments reveals a **coordinated, multi-year operation** by the City of Redmond, led by Mayor Angela Birney, to close the Old Fire House (OFH) Teen Center under the pretext of "structural challenges" while the building was acknowledged internally as **"currently safe for occupancy."**

The investigation has now uncovered:
- The closure was pre-planned **at least 2 years** in advance (Jan 2023)
- An internal memo from **July 2024** explicitly planned OFH as a "satellite site" — 8 months before the public knew
- A PR firm (Stepherson & Associates) was hired **3+ months** before the public announcement
- Community advocate **Sasha Glenn was surveilled** by staff who filed a formal report, **confiscated her contact information**, and escalated to the **Mayor within 13.5 hours**
- The city deployed a **three-step escalation path ending in permanent expulsion** against Glenn's advocacy
- **29+ citizens** wrote substantive opposition emails; **every single one** received the same template non-response
- Internal talking points were **explicitly labeled "not meant to be public facing"**
- The **same attorneys** who completed the Cleveland/Motley Zoo property transfer to Plymouth Housing are now finalizing an **Omnibus Financing Resolution** for a "Redmond PSH" (Permanent Supportive Housing) project
- The building was systematically **starved of $94,370** in denied capital investments over 6 years
- **93% of PRA files were corrupted/null-byte** — potential deliberate obstruction

## THE 20 SMOKING GUNS

### 1. "THIS IS FAR TOO DIRECT AND WILL CREATE A LOT O..."
**Parks Director Loreen Hamilton** censored a planned email to teens inviting them to meet with the Mayor about OFH. (Email ID 996, March 4, 2025)

### 2. MAYOR PERSONALLY SANITIZED COMMUNICATIONS
Lisa Maher wrote: **"I'm in a meeting with the Mayor and Loreen so these edits include their feedback: Remove the picture and use the standard 'Message from the Mayor' template."** Mayor Birney was personally scrubbing communications to make them less "direct." (Email ID 1014, March 4, 2025)

### 3. SURVEILLANCE REPORT ON SASHA GLENN
Tory Watson (Program Coordinator) filed a formal 5-point surveillance report on March 20, 2025:
- Sasha Glenn identified by name and email (sashajgleen@gmail.com)
- **Staff physically confiscated her email address from the front desk**
- Teens making "save the teen center" signs were reported up the chain
- Staff eavesdropped on teen conversations: "well we have a lawyer now"
- Erica Chua was "working on a response" to neutralize Sasha
- Staff told teens their relative "cannot solicit a service like that during public hours"

### 4. SURVEILLANCE REPORT REACHED THE MAYOR IN 13.5 HOURS
The Watson report on Glenn traveled: Watson → Chua/Hagen (Mar 20, 5:43 PM) → Houvener (Mar 21, 6:31 AM) → Hamilton (6:57 AM) → **Mayor Birney + COO Malisa Files** (7:17 AM). Hamilton told the Mayor: **"Staff is responding well."** A citizen advocating for a teen center was treated as an operational incident. (Email IDs 2156, 2119, 2471, 2549, 2484, 2111, 2338)

### 5. PERMANENT EXPULSION THREATENED FOR ADVOCACY
Deputy Parks Director Zach Houvener invoked the **Code of Conduct** against Glenn's advocacy, laying out a **three-step enforcement path: verbal warning → suspension → permanent expulsion from all facilities.** (Email ID 2484, March 21, 2025)

### 6. REAL-TIME PHYSICAL SURVEILLANCE
Erica Chua emailed Houvener on March 27: **"FYI, Sasha Gleen is on site at OFH with teens and a reporter — they are outside across the street from OFH. Jeff notified Brant."** Staff tracked Glenn's physical location and immediately alerted Communications when media was present. (Email ID 1598)

### 7. "YOU GOT AWAY WITH SELLING THE CLEVELAND PROPERTY TO PLYMOUTH HOUSING"
Citizen Linda Cole-Weaver wrote to Council (March 24, 2025): **"You got away with selling the Cleveland property to Plymouth Housing because no one was watching. The citizens are aware of your agenda and we will be watching."** (Email ID 2096)

### 8. SAME ATTORNEYS NOW FINALIZING "REDMOND PSH" DEAL
Daniel P. Kenny (City attorney, Ogden Murphy Wallace) and Andrea Y. Sato (Plymouth Housing attorney, Kantor Taylor) — the **exact same legal team** that completed the Cleveland/Motley Zoo transfer — are now finalizing an **Omnibus Financing Resolution for "Redmond PSH"** involving LIHTC tax credits, Heritage Bank, and Enterprise Community Partners. (Emails from dpkenny@omwlaw.com, asato@kantortaylor.com, jennis@kantortaylor.com, March-April 2025)

### 9. INTERNAL MEMO: OFH TO BECOME "SATELLITE SITE" (JULY 2024)
Erica Chua emailed Jeff Hagen and **14 other city employees** on July 31, 2024: **"Let's start to think about what OFH might look like as a Satellite Site rather than a full-time site now that we have moved offices out of this space to RCCMV."** The downgrade was decided internally **8 months** before the public knew. (Calendar invite, 16 recipients)

### 10. PR FIRM ENGAGED JANUARY 21, 2025
Stepherson & Associates (S&A) had recurring "OFH Outreach Check-In" meetings established January 21, 2025 — nearly **2 months** before the March 12 public announcement. Contract #10631. Billing: **$4,468.75/month** — more than building maintenance ($3,083/month).

### 11. "BEING CAREFUL WITH OUR LANGUAGE"
Brittany Pratt explicitly stated about the utility bill insert content: **"I know we are being careful with our language."** (Email, February 20, 2025)

### 12. FACILITY ASSESSMENT LEFT IN "DRAFT" DELIBERATELY
Sarah Partap (MENG Analysis Principal) emailed Feb 27, 2025: **"We had left the summary report in draft form at the time of the presentation to council in case you guys had any edits, but I don't think you had any edits to implement. I just removed the DRAFT watermark."** The assessment was presented to Council while still a draft. (Email from sarah@menganalysis.com)

### 13. 11 YEARS OF NEGLECT: FCI UNCHANGED
The OFH had an FCI of **0.22 ("Poor") in 2014** and **0.23 ("Poor") in 2024**. In 11 years between two MENG assessments, the building barely changed — because the city invested nothing. The 2014 report already flagged the hose tower as a "serious concern." The city had a decade to fix it and chose not to. (2014 FCA Report, 452 pages; 2024 FCA Summary Report v4)

### 14. FAQs ADMIT BUILDING IS "CURRENTLY SAFE FOR OCCUPANCY"
The city's own FAQ document states the building is safe. Yet public messaging claims "structural challenges" as justification for closure.

### 15. STAFF FORBIDDEN FROM SHARING ASSESSMENT DETAILS
Staff Talking Points explicitly state staff CANNOT share **"detailed information about the facility assessment findings."** The Talking Points document was explicitly labeled: **"internal only and not meant to be public facing."** (Email ID 1575, Zach Houvener to Yuni Yu)

### 16. "FACILITY ASSESSMENT — DUN DUN DUN!"
Staff's actual reaction in the March 19, 2024 team meeting agenda. They knew what was coming.

### 17. ALTERNATE FACILITIES PLAN SINCE JANUARY 2023
"Alternate Facilities Plan" appeared in **every team meeting agenda** from January 2023 through August 2024 — **TWO FULL YEARS** before the public announcement.

### 18. BUILDING STARVED OF $94,370
- Stage lighting with electrical faults (shorting) — requested 2017, again 2019, never funded
- ADA non-compliant stage since 1995 — **30 years**, request denied
- Awning frame detaching from building (safety hazard) — request denied
- NO air conditioning/cooling system in the building
- Revenue target: $106,271. Actual: $6,129 (5.8%). **Set up to fail.**

### 19. EVERY CITIZEN GOT THE SAME TEMPLATE NON-RESPONSE
29+ citizens wrote substantive, personal emails raising specific concerns. The Mayor's Office (via Yuni Yu), Legislative Coordinator (Diedra Maher), and Parks (Zach Houvener) **coordinated identical template responses** that answered nothing: just a URL to redmond.gov/TeenServices. (Email IDs 1785, 1875, 1575, 2130, 1643, 1704)

### 20. COOP PLANS STILL LIST OFH AS ACTIVE THROUGH APRIL 2025
The city's own emergency Continuity of Operations Plan (updated April 2025) still lists OFH as an **alternate emergency work location** for ALL FOUR divisions of Parks & Recreation.

## THE PLYMOUTH HOUSING PROPERTY PIPELINE

### The Pattern (Documented in PRA Emails)

The PRA dump reveals a **complete, documented property transfer pipeline** operated by the City of Redmond:

#### Step 1: Identify City-Owned Property
City targets property it considers surplus or underutilized.

#### Step 2: Negotiate Transfer Option Agreement
- City attorney **Daniel P. Kenny** (Ogden Murphy Wallace) drafts a Transfer Option Agreement
- Plymouth Housing attorney **Andrea Y. Sato** (Kantor Taylor) represents Plymouth
- Agreement gives Plymouth the **right to acquire** the property after a feasibility period
- April 2, 2024: Sato sends initial draft — "I decided it was just easier to propose a transfer option agreement"
- April 15-16: Phone negotiations, blanks filled in on the 16+ page agreement
- April 16: **Carol Helland** presents to Council at 4:30 PM meeting; **Mayor signs** the same day

#### Step 3: Feasibility Period
- Plymouth gets 120 days for due diligence (title search, geotechnical testing)
- **AMLI** (PPF AMLI Redmond Way, LLC) holds an existing lease on the property
- Plymouth has to navigate AMLI's sublease requirements ($5M insurance) for test borings
- Elizabeth Murphy (Plymouth Housing) coordinates testing
- Feasibility period **extended via amendment** (July-August 2024, Mayor's signature required)

#### Step 4: Omnibus Financing Resolution
- March-April 2025: Kantor Taylor circulates **"Omnibus Financing Resolution"** for "Redmond PSH"
- Full LIHTC financing stack assembled:
  - **Enterprise Community Partners** — Tax credit investor (Emily DeSimone, Rafay Kazmi, Susan Grossman)
  - **Heritage Bank NW** — Construction/permanent lender
  - **Stokes Law** — Bond counsel
  - **Plymouth Housing** — Developer/operator (Elizabeth Murphy, Karen Peterson)
- **"Permanent Supportive Housing Restrictive Covenant"** included in Exhibit A
- Tied to **RZC 21.57** (Redmond Zoning Code for affordable/supportive housing)
- Plymouth Board approval scheduled April 14, 2025

#### Step 5: Property Transfer
Property transfers to Plymouth Housing for decades-long Permanent Supportive Housing operation.

### The Cleveland/Motley Zoo Transfer (COMPLETED)
This exact pattern was **already completed** for the "Motley Zoo Property" / Cleveland area property. Linda Cole-Weaver recognized it: "You got away with selling the Cleveland property to Plymouth Housing because no one was watching."

### The OFH (IN PROGRESS?)
The same legal team, the same structure, the same city officials. The "Redmond PSH" Omnibus Financing Resolution being finalized in April 2025 is the endgame apparatus. Whether it is for the OFH site specifically or another property, the pipeline is active and the same players are executing it.

---

## CITIZEN OPPOSITION (SUPPRESSED)

### Scale
- **2,104+ petition signatures** in first weekend (Change.org)
- **29+ unique citizens** wrote substantive personal emails (March 21-30, 2025)
- **438 total emails** addressed to Council/Mayor about OFH

### Notable Citizen Voices

| Citizen | Key Quote | Date |
|---------|-----------|------|
| **Sasha Glenn** | "The public will be outraged if this process proceeds without first allowing opportunity for public comment" | Mar 24 |
| **Linda Cole-Weaver** | "You got away with selling the Cleveland property to Plymouth Housing because no one was watching" | Mar 24 |
| **Michael Proulx** | Called the process "not democratic, transparent, or [showing] any concern and care for our young people" | Mar 23 |
| **Aubrey/Bee Hansen** (teen) | "The intention behind this shutdown is beyond clear, and it has nothing to do with safety" | Mar 24 |
| **Christopher Hill** | Detailed OFH's role in PNW music history (Sunny Day Real Estate, Carrie Brownstein) | Mar 27 |
| **Caroline Chapman** (former Parks Planning Manager) | Proposed alternatives: Community Land Trust, nonprofit lease, POPS | Mar 25 |
| **Merrily Clark** | "You folks just don't listen to the citizens of Redmond at all" | Mar 26 |
| **Mark Vincent** | Wrote after KIRO coverage: "NO PUBLIC discussion, and no clear or truthful reason for closure" | Mar 28 |
| **Olivia Leslie** | "The most valuable use of this space is not in the hands of developers" | Mar 30 |

### The Suppression Mechanism

The city deployed a **three-tier coordinated response system**:

**Tier 1 — Yuni Yu (Mayor's EA):** Claimed all Mayor-addressed emails. Sought "alignment" with Parks before responding. Sent identical template: just a URL to redmond.gov/TeenServices.

**Tier 2 — Diedra Maher (Legislative Coordinator):** Created template for Council ombudspersons. Checked "alignment with the Mayor's Office" before sending.

**Tier 3 — Zach Houvener (Deputy Parks Director):** Provided internal FAQs and talking points. **Explicitly restricted talking points as "internal only."** Approved all template responses for "alignment."

**Result:** Every citizen — whether they raised safety concerns, democratic process failures, historical significance, or alternatives — received the same non-substantive template pointing to a website FAQ.

- R&M supplies spending dropped 76% from 2023 to 2025 (winding down)

### Revenue Targets (2025)

## LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS

### 1. Washington Public Records Act (RCW 42.56)
- **93% of files in original PRA dump were corrupted/null-byte**
- This level of corruption is statistically anomalous and warrants investigation for potential deliberate obstruction
- Sarah Partap's email about removing the DRAFT watermark raises questions about document integrity

### 2. Open Public Meetings Act (OPMA)
- Were closure decisions made in closed sessions?
- The July 31, 2024 internal meeting with 16 staff planning "satellite site" conversion — was this properly noticed?
- The March 10, 2025 "Facilities Meeting" with the Mayor at RCCMV — was this a public meeting?

### 3. First Amendment — Suppression of Protected Speech
- Sasha Glenn's activities (leaving contact info, starting a petition, speaking with teens) are **constitutionally protected advocacy**
- The city reframed this as "conducting unauthorized business on City property"
- Three-step enforcement path to **permanent expulsion** for protected speech
- Physical confiscation of contact information from a public facility
- Staff eavesdropping on and reporting private conversations
- Real-time physical surveillance with immediate notification to Communications

### 4. ADA Compliance
- Stage non-compliant since **1995** — formally documented in 2021 capital request
- **30 years** of documented ADA non-compliance; request to fix it was denied

### 5. Municipal Property Disposition
- What public process was followed for the Cleveland/Motley Zoo transfer to Plymouth Housing?
- The Transfer Option Agreement was negotiated privately and signed by the Mayor
- The Omnibus Financing Resolution for "Redmond PSH" involves a full LIHTC stack — this is a major property transaction
- Citizens explicitly identified and objected to this pattern

### 6. Information Asymmetry / Due Process
- Internal talking points **explicitly withheld** from public ("internal only and not meant to be public facing")
- Citizens directed to study session where "we don't take public comments"
- Template responses answered no substantive citizen concerns
- 2,000+ petition signatures acknowledged but not addressed

## OUTSTANDING INVESTIGATIVE NEEDS

1. **Transfer Option Agreement text** — 16+ page document referenced in attorney emails; not in PRA dump
2. **Which property is "Redmond PSH"?** — Is it the OFH, Motley Zoo, or another property?
3. **Omnibus Financing Resolution final text** — Being finalized April 2025
4. **Council Meeting minutes from April 16, 2024** — When Carol Helland presented and Mayor signed Transfer Option
5. **Council Meeting minutes from April 23, 2024** — FCA presented to council
6. **S&A full contract, all invoices** — Only December 2024 documented; total spend unknown
7. **The actual S&A Engagement Plan** — On SharePoint, not in email dump
8. **Property valuation/appraisal** — No valuation found for any transferred property
9. **AMLI lease terms** — Full lease between City and PPF AMLI Redmond Way, LLC
10. **The April 22, 2025 study session** — What was presented? Did the Plymouth Housing pipeline come up?
11. **Enterprise Community Partners LIHTC application** — Tax credit allocation details
12. **Carol Helland's role** — Appears to be the key facilitation figure for property transfers
