It is this coming Saturday, March 15th at 10:00 a.m. at CityU, 521 Wall St.

Petra Mediterranean Bistro is located at 2501 4th Avenue (NW corner of 4th & Wall).

Cheers!

We want to make sure that all eligible voters are registered and can cast their ballots. Brochures will be available for members to take with them. We want to spread the word and encourage all King County residents to vote for Proposition 1, which seeks a 1/10th of a penny sales tax increase and a $60 car tab fee to prevent Metro cuts from gutting our transit service and provides money for street/sidewalk improvements in the county.  The measure has a provision for a $20 rebate for low income vehicle owners one the car tab fee, and replaces the current $20 fee that was added 2 years ago. For those living outside of King County please encourage all of your King Co. acquaintances to vote for this measure so that blind people can continue to live full lives.
