    We're proud that we could support the peaceful protest today. We appreciate everyone who exercised their first amendment right to stand against racial injustice and police brutality. #CalminKirkland

    Please forgive this pause in our snow coverage so that we can profess our undying love for @CityofKent. It is, after all, Valentine's Day! We love you @CityofKent! May your plows be unobstructed, your streets clear, your crews & first responders safe, & of course: nuggs for all!

    Parking in bike lanes is illegal in Kirkland. Please don't park in our bike lanes. Never park in a bike lane, even if you’re just checking your phone. Blocked bike lanes create unsafe conditions for people riding bikes, forcing them into traffic. Bike lanes are travel lanes too!

    A big thanks to all our Kirkland Public Works crew members that are working hard to make sure critical infrastructure (e.g. clean drinking water) is maintained during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, they still managed to take the time to save these ducklings. Our crews are the best!

    We’re happy to share this video of a Chinook salmon in Juanita Creek near Edith Moulton Park! We polled our Surface Water team & found out that it’s been years since our staff has seen a Chinook in Juanita Creek, with the most recent documented sighting by Kirkland staff in 1999.

    The #CaliforniaWildfires remain incredibly serious. Last night our 4 courageous #kirklandfire fighters helped Cal Fire keep this fire from crossing highway 20. Our crew is tired but safe this morning. Thank you to all the firefighters battling these wildfires.
