For almost two years, North Highline residents have wondered how their monthly bills and yearly taxes could change if they are annexed by Seattle, join Burien or form their own city.
The cost of some services would increase more if North Highline joined Seattle than if it became part of Burien, a crowd of about 200 people was told Sept.

Burien's street-light saga appeared to inch closer to a resolution last week.
Seattle City Light has told Water District 49 that on Wednesday, Sept. 28, it will pull the plug on street lights within the district unless $100,000 in delinquent charges from the past three years is paid by then.
The district used to charge its customers for street lights, then paid City Light.
Beginning Oct. 1, King County residents and businesses will be prohibited from disposing of computers, laptops, monitors, television sets and cell phones in the garbage or at transfer stations.
The county's ban on electronics disposal aims to encourage recycling of the valuable materials contained in these products, and to reduce the amount of heavy metals and other hazardous materials in our environment.
Each day in Washington, approximately 1,600 computers become obsolete.
Special to the Times/News
It was a long summer for many houseplants that enjoyed it outdoors. But all good things must come to an end; it's time to bring them back indoors.
To make the transition easier, line them up by the back door. For the next few days, carefully inspect each one before bringing them in.
Short of turning them inside out, look at the leaves (especially the undersides), stems and flowers, if any, for any pests that might hitchhike their way indoors.
On behalf of the city of Burien Arts Commission and the Discover Burien Association, it is my pleasure to thank all of the many people who made the Spring Stroll Art Walk so special on May 7.
This was the biggest art walk we have ever presented with over 50 businesses and craft booths, and over 60 artists on board. We were thrilled to have good weather and excellent sales throughout the day. Many thanks and congratulations to all who took part.
Once again, I am grateful to the Times/News for giving us great coverage.
