Staging for the Seawall

And so it begins!
Staging for the seawall repair along Emma Schmitz Memorial Viewpoint has started this morning. Neighbors can look forward to the fencing to be covered with green tarps while repairs and improvements are underway. The project will coincide with the tides so anticipate construction during times of low tides.

On a positive note, there will be temporary crosswalks set at Snoqualmie and Jacobsen. I know many neighbors would love to see permanent crosswalks in these locations.

Emma Schmitz Seawall Project Meeting

The intrepid reporter, Scupper, and I attended the meeting tonight. We lived streamed the meeting, as much as our internet connection would allow, on Facebook. For those of you not on Facebook, you can check out the video here.

Overall I thought the meeting went well. It was a nice turnout of neighbors despite no wine or cheese being served 😉 Seriously, great questions were asked and provided.
