ONE KIRKLAND!
We are a community of neighborhoods, businesses,
religious groups, organizations and an amazing
cross-section of people. Together we are One Kirkland.
Together we can assure a city that will last for
generations to come, where our children and
grandchildren work, play, live and gather with a
priceless appreciation of their community.
ONE
KIRKLAND!Now more than ever we
need to embrace the concept of One Kirkland.
Annexation will require us to grow as a whole
community. We will be integrating neighborhoods,
business districts, congregations, and a population of
more than 30,000 new residents. It is important for us
to prepare for a more diverse city and a larger
regional role.
ONE KIRKLAND!We must build
interdependent relationships within our city. If we
can increase sales tax revenues we lessen the risk of
higher property taxes. Providing the right mix of
goods and services in our business districts allows
our citizens to buy locally, spending less time on the
road and more time with family and friends in our
neighborhoods.
