MAKING COMPLAINTS

You see something that you think is wrong, possibly illegal, possibly not according to code, potentially dangerous, an eye-sore or a practice that will be determintal to your property. The first thing you will find out is there doesn't seem to be A PLACE to ask questions. It is always some other agency or department. Then you realize that Lakeridge is the tip of the last hair on the tail of a poltiical dog. You then think that contacting your representatives like King County Executive Ron Sims (D) (in office until 2009) email exec.sims@metrokc.gov (206) 296-4040 or Councilman Larry Gossett (chairman District 2) (206) 296-1002 Citizen Complaints Number is (206)-296-3452 GOOD LUCKthe half dozen people I have talked to either got canned responses that meant your don't count or got no response. Lakeridge doesn't have the strength of a flea to make the dog itch.

If you are enthusiastic enough to be concerned about your property and rights here are some numbers and web sites (if you find other avenues that work please let us know) p.s. the official response by various offices is that the WEST HILL COMMUNITY COUNCIL has Lakeridge's interest at heart --they are two hairs closer to the base of the tail.

A good place to start to make a complaint or avoid being complained about is
