To recognize this occasion, the City will host a party on Thursday, June 8th, at the Highline Heritage Museum in Burien from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm. This is a free event, but reservations are required.

Final Civic Center Survey results have been posted

In August of 2022, a proposition needed to fund the construction of a proposed Civic Center went to the ballot and was unsuccessful. This winter, the city created a survey to gather feedback and to help understand the “why” behind your vote. We had a fantastic response to our survey and collected nearly 559 responses! We have heard from you and read all your comments. A central point we learned was that those who voted “no” did so because they thought the plan was too expensive. We understand that the city must reduce project costs as we move forward. We have listened to you and sincerely thank those who completed the survey. This link will take you to a full review of the results. And stay tuned for more information on possible future building projects.

Bloodworks Northwest pop-up Clinic at City Hall – May 22nd

In partnership with Bloodworks Northwest, the City is hosting another pop-up blood drive. The need for blood is constant, and there is an emergency need for donors to book appointments in the weeks ahead to stabilize the blood supply. Please click this link to schedule your appointment. Thank you in advance for contributing to the community’s blood supply.

King County Survey on Food and Yard Waste closes on April 30th

Don’t forget – King County Solid Waste Division wants your input on getting more residents to compost food waste instead of putting it in the garbage. Keeping food out of our landfill is an important environmental action to reduce waste and support climate goals. Take this survey to help shape the food waste reduction programming! Your input helps King County create policies and programming; participants can enter a drawing to win fun prizes!
