Piloting is a means of delay when you don’t have the political will for progress.

A HAZARD is a swimming pool of sharks. A RISK is choosing to swim in that pool. Disasters are NOT natural.

Bothell Councilmember Curd understands that we can fiercely care for our natural environment AND fiercely care for people through housing. We too believe both people and planet are important. Thank you Councilmember Curd for your vision, service, and belief in our campaign!
Tracy for Kenmore logo is at the top over a navy blue banner. Endorsed! in a red box is just below to the left. A picture of a smiling person in glasses and an orange coat is in a circle to the right. The text in the graphic is about Bothell City Councilmember Carson Curd endorsing Tracy for Kenmore. There is an endorsement quote and thank you for the council member's trust and support. The background is a green/blue photo of water and fish.

Bothell neighbors have skills. Clean out your garages!! I want to see bike tuning, yarn spinning, cat cleaning, art sharing, kombucha brewing, tax preparing, floral arranging, tamale supplying, trophy engraving… or whatever your specialty is!

Shouldn't the orca appeal people know astroturfing sheds tire wear particles which affect salmon?

Councilmembers from Seattle are welcome to come out to Bothell, stand at the edge of the urban growth boundary and see what their policies are doing on the other side of the line. It's connected.

Know what kills orcas? Sprawl and cars. Not dense housing in walkable neighborhoods

Removing parking mandates doesn’t mean parking doesn’t still get built! It just means cool new places aren’t banned because they need to get creative with their footprint.

Downtown Bothell Fire Station 42 is open for folks to charge devices today until 7PM (priority for medical devices). I'm grateful for neighbors checking in on each other and helping out during the extended power outage.

Feeling so inspired seeing red Kokanee spawning in a creek near Lake Sammamish today! 🤩
About ten red fish - 'Kokanee,' a non-anadromous, lake-locked sibling of sockeye salmon - swimming upstream in a small, gravelly creek in Sammamish.

Grew up with a backyard creek; I never saw or thought about local spawning until I started working in salmon recovery a few years ago, overcome by awe & emotion about their persistence. It's a transformational experience everyone should see!!
