On Jan. 20, at about 3 p.m., two Klahanie residents observed a person on Beaver Lake Road who was removing “Vote YES” annexation signs that we had placed on the roadside.
The Sammamish community has spent the past several months trying to convince their city council members about the value of staying with Eastside Fire and Rescue. This partnership continues to be the most cost-effective way to deliver emergency and life safety services to Sammamish residents.
A “no” vote on annexation will keep Klahanie safer.
Saturday, Feb. 11, delivered a pounding storm to Issaquah. It was nothing compared to the presentation I attended sponsored by the Issaquah Branch of the AAUW.
There is strong sentiment for voting No on Issaquah Annexation so we can fully evaluate the whole situation and determine the best future for the entire annexation area. So many of us look to Sammamish as our future. I agree that voters carefully consider the facts.
I would like remind my neighbors on the Plateau that there will be an important election on Feb. 11 about the annexation of the area known as the Klahanie PAA into the city of Issaquah.
I am a sophomore at Bucknell University playing Division 1 Soccer. During my senior year of high school, I came out as gay. In doing so, I became very involved in fighting for the rights of the LGBT community, as well as other forms of social activism.
Patrons of the Northeast Sammamish Sewer and Water District have received notice that the Sammamish City Council is considering a takeover of the water district.
Relating to the incident at Eastside Catholic, first, this is a religious institution, which believes and attempts to follow the Holy Scriptures (Bible) which calls homosexuality an abomination.
Bryan Weinstein’s Dec. 6 letter about the tent city is right on target. But what is the “foundational work” we need to do to ensure all people have the basics of life – food, shelter and clothing?
I am pleased to report that the support of the Wreaths Across America ceremony scheduled for Sunset Hills Memorial Park has been wonderful.
I read with much interest and amusement stories and articles about the recent Machinists rejection of the Boeing proposal that would probably have kept the 777X here in Washington had they accepted it.
Life Enrichment Options (LEO) would like to express our heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended our recent fundraising luncheon, “It’s About the Journey”, and to those who sent donations to support our work of providing a quality of life for adults with developmental disabilities.
I am not a Boeing employee or employer, but a retired businessman. Your 777X cartoon was ill advised and not appropriate in today’s business environment.
For all the good that Tent City does in making people feel good, or creating connections, where is the transitional and affordable housing that we hear so much about. Why does the cycle of people, families, and children who are classified as “working poor” continue?
Do you remember with fondness walking or riding your bike to school when you were a kid? I remember it as being one of the things I treasure most from my childhood. A bit of freedom, responsibility, fresh air and exercise all at once.
I am getting tired of the Lance Armstrong wannabes. If you want bicycle lanes, you pay for them.
I-502, the initiative that legalized marijuana in Washington State, is being used to try and undermine or eliminate the current medical marijuana law I-692.
Why I am voting no on I-522? Facts should be the basis for public policy decisions regarding health and safety, not unfounded ideological biases.
Now that the Boundary Review Board unanimously has voted in favor of allowing Klahanie to vote on annexation to Issaquah, it appears there may be an appeal of the ruling, possibly dragging out the decision well into 2014. It would be an appeal by anti-annexation followers who have challenged the facts with non-truths and rumors.
