The impact of sharply rising diesel fuel costs prompted the Metropolitan King County Council to unanimously call for a performance audit of King County Metro Transit to identify more efficient business processes and ensure the best allocation of resources in order to maintain levels of service.
“Skyrocketing fuel costs may soon lead the County Executive to propose a fuel surcharge or fare increase for Metro Transit,” said Councilmember Larry Phillips. “Before we entertain such action, we need to assure bus riders that we are identifying every cost-savings and efficiency in the transit system.”

Mystery behind Redmond Way Everything Party sign holders...
June 12, 2008 3:05 pm

For several weeks, passers-by on Redmond Way have noticed two men standing in front of the Everything Party store, holding a sign referring to a labor dispute and proclaiming, “Everything Party hurts our community.”
On June 6, a Redmond Reporter staff member approached the sign holders and asked them about the labor dispute and how the store was hurting the community. They said they didn’t speak English, but offered a flyer from the Pacific Northwest Regional Council of Carpenters.
The flyer stated, “The Pacific NW Regional Council of Carpenters has a labor dispute with Heiberg Inc., which is a sub-contractor for SD Deacon at the Landing in Renton. Heiberg Inc. does not meet area labor standards, including providing or fully paying for family healthcare and pension for all of its carpenter craft employees.”

To encourage residential builders to “build green,” the City of Redmond is instituting the Green Residential Permitting Pilot Program.
The city has heard from Redmond residents that they expect new development to be environmentally sensitive. That extends not only to preserving environmentally critical areas and mature trees — as Redmond already does — but also constructing buildings with a reduced environmental footprint. This program encourages exactly that.
