Update on 6/17 Meeting with Kathy Lambert, Next Meeting 6/23

by Michelle Blue on June 18, 2008

Updates & Reminders
 
County Meeting: We met yesterday with KC Councilmember Kathy Lambert and her policy director, Christine Jensen, who have been active on the road project.  Because of their efforts and our activism, the road division has proposed a study on a small section of the road in 2009.   While we are thrilled to see this significant step, we have opposed the plan since it involves repairs and refacing, not overlay.  We believe the money would be better spent if applied toward a permanent solution for the road which involves resurfacing, not repair.  Walter gave another excellent presentation about the many benefits of using AR on a road such as Avondale.  Lambert and Jensen were very interested in the AR approach and will continue discussions with the roads division and others about the best plan for Avondale.  We will provide a more complete overview at next week’s meeting.
 
Signs:  Website signs have arrived and will be posted at the intersections this week.  We will distribute additional signs to committee members at Monday’s meeting.
 
Reminder:  Our next meeting is Monday, 6/23, at 7PM at the Woodinville library.   We will review status and plans going forward.  Your input and involvement are critical to our success.  So far, it’s working!   Discussion topics will include 2009 proposed road study, signs, Music in the Park, permanent radar boards and more.
 
Thanks… hope to see you Monday.
