Fireworks

King County is considering a ban on all fireworks this year because of the recent dry weather. Wilderness Rim is within King County, so any decisions will apply to our neighborhood. Since there will not be another newsletter before the 4th of July holiday, please stay informed on this issue. Have a safe, sane and happy 4th of July.

Fire Hydrants

If you have a fire hydrant in front of or near your house please keep the brush trimmed well away from it both so it can be easily seen in case of an emergency and to provide working room around it. Also, please make sure your house number is easily visible from the street and is a contrasting color from the house (if mounted to the house). Consider putting your house number on your mailbox to make it even easier for us to find your address. Thank you from your volunteer fire station crew!

Notice to WRA Homeowners

On 3/21/2005 the WRA Office received a notice from the Sallal Water Association that proposes an increase to the metered water rate that greatly exceeds any prior increase negotiated between WRA and Sallal. Our WRA Board of Trustees is in contact with our attorney and is reviewing the proposed increase to determine if it is fair and legal. If our homeowners have any information regarding this issue please contact the WRA office at (425) 888-0087.
