Greetings!
On Tuesday, Feb 18, Kirkland City Council will be the first City to receive a summary of the recently completed Regional Aquatics Report. The report, facilitated by King County on behalf of Kirkland, Redmond and Bellevue, explores both local and regional approaches to the development of aquatics facilities on the Eastside.
Kirkland City Council will provide feedback and guidance to Parks Staff on whether to continue exploring a regional approach.
We encourage you to provide comments to City Council members about the dire state of affairs within our community and to support BOTH LOCAL and REGIONAL approaches calling out specifically the need to address Juanita Aquatic Center. We believe there is great potential to envision a public private partnership between the City, LWSD and the private community to build a local aquatics center that better serves both community and school district needs.
Redmond City Council is expected to review later this month on the 25th and Bellevue City Council has not yet set a date.
