North City residents are invited to join the Echo Lake and Meridian Park neighborhoods for a 185th Corridor presentation and interactive session on Tuesday, April 16 from 7 to 9pm (our agenda item starts at 7:30 pm) in City Hall Council Chambers.

This event will be very similar to the open house presentation and Q&A from April 2. We will have all the Open House 2 boards available for review and will encourage participants to complete the worksheet or go to the online survey.

We invite you to the 21st annual North City tree lighting event. Bring the whole family to Les Schwab at 180th & 15th Ave NE to help light the 25 foot “tree” on top of the North City water tower.

There will be live music and children can have their pictures taken with Santa (courtesy of the North City Walgreens.) Coffee and other refreshments will be provided to help keep you warm, so don’t let the weather keep you from coming out.

We will be collecting non-perishable food items for Hopelink.

The tree lighting is sponsored by:

• The North City Business Association
• The North City Water District
• Les Schwab
• Around the Sound Community Band
• The North City Neighborhood Association

Please join Shoreline's Police Department, city officials, district educators and fellow residents in attending a public forum, “Sex Trafficking in King County.”

Hundreds of women and girls are sold for sex every night in King County. Join us this coming Tuesday 7pm at Shoreline City Hall to learn what’s being done and how you can help. Parents and teens are especially encouraged to come out.

The forum will begin with the presentation “Sex Trafficking in King County” by REST (Real Escape from the Sex Trade; description below). Q & A will follow with REST and Shoreline Police Department’s Liaison & Special Teams Officers and the City Prosecutor’s Office. Other local officials, community leaders, and district educators will be at the forum as well.

REST is an independent, Seattle-based 501c3 that provides pathways to freedom, safety, and hope for victims of sex trafficking and people involved in the sex trade. REST actively partners with Seattle's Vice Squad, Seatac, Kent, and Burien police officers, Businesses Ending Sex Trafficking (BEST), Organization for Prostitution Survivors (OPS), Seattle's Union Gospel Mission, and others.

This event is co-sponsored by Laura Lind and Officer Steven Perry (of the Shoreline Police Department.) If you have any questions about the forum, please feel free to contact Laura Lind. Hope to see many of you at City Hall 7pm this Tuesday night!

The North City Neighborhood Association will once again be hosting a family picnic this summer on the evening of Thursday, July 28, from 6–8pm. We will be providing food — and a bouncy slide!
