Sims to host joint annual forum for King County Unincorporated Area Councils

King County residents are invited to join County Executive Ron Sims when he hosts his joint annual forum to meet with the chairs and members of the six recognized King County Unincorporated Area Councils (UACs). Attendees will be able to pick up informational items and talk with and hear from other elected officials, King County department directors, and residents of the county’s unincorporated areas as they discuss various issues facing their communities.

The forum will take place:

Tuesday, October 28, 2008
6:30-9 p.m.
Program begins at 7 p.m.
Avondale Bible Church Hall
17010 Avondale Rd. NE
Woodinville, WA

Displays, brochures and information about county services will be available.

Each of the six UACs will offer brief presentations on the issues of greatest concern to their communities, followed by an opportunity for questions and answers between the community and the Executive.

The six King County UACs include the Four Creeks Unincorporated Area Council, Greater Maple Valley Area Council, North Highline Unincorporated Area Council, Vashon-Maury Island Community Council, West Hill Community Council and the co-host of this year’s forum, the Upper Bear Creek Community Council.
