The future of the North Highline Unincorporated Area Council is on the agenda
Fri, 09/30/2011
The future of the North Highline Unincorporated Area Council is the big agenda item for the Oct. 6 meeting at the North Highline Fire Station, 1243 SW 112 St. in White Center. The six unincorporated area councils (UACs) in King County received word in early July that their contractual agreement with the county and $10,000 in annual funding (for each UAC) will end starting in 2012. Essentially, the UAC's will lose their funding and King County plans to implement a new model for interaction with unincorporated area residents. The adopted legislation calls for the establishment of unincorporated community service areas (CSAs) that will cover all of unincorporated areas. Under the framework, a single point of contact will hold meetings with service areas to develop work programs and provide regular opportunities for community-based organizations, such as Unincorporated Area Councils (UACs), to meet and work with King County officials.
The plan is outlined here: http://your.kingcounty.gov/dnrp/library/dnrp-directors-office/rural/ua-…
