Explaining our city’s financial picture | Mayor Cooke

At its final meeting of 2013, the City Council approved adjustments to the second year of our biennial budget. I'd like to respond to your Dec. 5 article mentioning the city's $1.9 million "surplus" in the general fund.

 

Kent Lions Club deserves kudos

On behalf of the City of Kent, I’d like to extend a huge THANK YOU to the Kent Lions Club for another fantastic Cornucopia Days Festival. Cornucopia Days is the largest family festival in South King County and is organized and run entirely by volunteers! Plus, proceeds from the festival benefit more than 250 non-profit and charitable organizations in our area!
