NE 55th Street Steps to the CKC by Kelli Curtis

12/7/2015

0 Comments

 
Last weekend, fourteen hearty souls built new steps connecting the end of 55th street to the Cross Kirkland Corridor. The project was a collaboration between the local neighborhood and the City of Kirkland. The neighbors contributed the labor and purchased the building materials while the city, thanks to the effort of Kari Page, CKC Coordinator, did the preliminary excavation work, provided a site supervisor, and will install a metal handrail. The CKC has quickly become an important part of the neighborhood as a gathering place for exercise and friendship. It is wonderful to have safe steps to access the trail.

Kudos to our neighbors at 55th!

Mail Theft and Secure Mailboxes

6/16/2015

PictureUnsecured mailboxes
At the last CHNA meeting, we talked about mail theft. Well, this last week it seems that one of our Sandhurst neighbors was the victim of mail theft. The thieves targeted an unsecure (insecure:)/unlocked mailbox and took only a few pieces of mail. The mailbox was one of the boxes on the left. 

In our meeting I mentioned that we have secured/locked mailboxes in our part of the cul-de-sac. A picture of them is on the right. There are thirteen mailboxes in the secure unit. The cluster box unit cost around $1500 plus an additional installation charge. I believe each neighbor ended up paying around $150 total. Another condition was that we had to get everyone in consecutive house numbers to sign on for the project, otherwise the US Postal Service wouldn't deliver. You can find similar mailboxes at Home Depot. If you have any questions, let me know.
