NIMBYs in Sammamish
When the builder that built the house you are now living in, where were you to throw out whatever "sticks to the wall" to save the trees, birds, wildlife, bugs etc. to stop progress?

Due diligence needed on development
I was disappointed to read that The Reporter, describing the angst felt by the neighbors of the proposed development on Ingelwood Hill Road, failed to give the reason why.

Why the delay on HOV lanes?
Prior to the Prop One vote in 2008, Sound Transit promised “Travel times across 1-90 for vehicles would also improve or remain similar with East Link.” East Link would add a fourth lane for HOV traffic to the outer bridges to make up for the center bridge closure for light rail.

Housing development not a good idea
Did you know that a 38-lot subdivision is going in on Inglewood Hill Road between the traffic circle at 216th Avenue Northeast and 212th Avenue Northeast? I don't know about you, but I moved to this area because of the beauty of Sammamish. Enough with cutting down all the trees to put up the same old cookie cutter houses. Keep Sammamish beautiful!

Blame the Dems
I would like to respond to the lady from Issaquah complaining about redistricting. She said the people on the other side of the mountains hate us on this side. With letter writers like this, I can understand why.

Governor should control costs before asking for taxes
Instead of more taxes, how about some house cleaning, starting with the Washington State Ferry System.

Tell 'truth' about redistricting
It would have been more honest if it had read: "Slade succeeds in the most dishonest, swarthy and slimy redistricting gerrymandering in the history of the once stellar state of Washington."

The CAO quicksand
Seems to me the question is not whether the horse cares about water, but whether it is fair to whip the horse when it has no way to know that there is water at all.
Not a ruined landscape
Today I went for a jog on Tiger Mountain near Issaquah.
I have thoroughly enjoyed its footpaths this summer, together with many others: families, daycare children, high school students, handicapped persons, seniors and tourists.
