Kirkland residents are invited to provide comments by October 29th on the 2014 Surface Water Master Plan. The plan identifies programs and projects that will be used by the City to protect us from flooding and to improve and protect our streams, lakes, and stormwater systems over the next 10 years.

Comments provided by Finn Hill residents will be included in a FHNA letter to Kirkland Public Works to communicate suggestions and changes to Kirkland’s 10-year surface water plan. To provide a comment, please use the comment feature for this blog.
