The City Council meeting for the City of Federal Way- September 4, 2007
Tracey and I attended the meeting this evening and here is the update.
City Manager (Neal Beets) Emerging Issues: Annexation Update
The report was real simple and short. Neal Beets stated, ‘we are awaiting additional information from King County Elections and will be getting precinct data to determine how the residents in the PAA voted. We plan to form focus groups in the PAA to gain a better understanding of the issues on the minds of the voters as they went to the polls.’
That sounds a lot like intention to pursue annexation to me. If they were not planning on putting it on the ballot in the future, why spend the money on ‘Focus Groups”?
They plan on putting it back on the ballot. It is just a matter of when, not if.
Be alert to any news or meetings planned for your area. We need to be there.
Respectfully,
Jerry Galland
