King County Flood Control District Chairmanship among Council committee assignments

Every year, the King County Council reorganizes the membership of its standing committees.  On Feb. 26, I was unanimously selected to serve as the Chair of the King County Flood Control District.

The flood district is vitally important to King County.  River flooding has led to 12 presidentially declared disasters in King County since 1990.

The King County Flood Control District is a special purpose government created to provide funding and policy oversight for flood protection projects and programs in King County. The Flood Control District's Board is composed of the members of the King County Council.

I will also serve as the Vice Chair of the Council’s Transportation, Economy and Environment Committee (TrEE). In addition, I will be a member of the Government Accountability and Oversight (GAO) and Regional Water Committees.

During the first months of the New Year, I have been actively traveling my district; meeting with constituents, speaking with community leaders and reporting about the challenges King County faces in the upcoming year.

In January and February, I have visited nine cities within and adjacent to District 9— Renton, Kent, Bellevue, Covington, Maple Valley, Newcastle, Issaquah Enumclaw, and Black Diamond—delivering my annual State of the County Address. The address is an opportunity for me to update the respective City Councils on a number of topics including the County Budget and transit issues, and to answer questions from Councilmembers and the public.

Please feel to e-mail me at reagan.dunn@kingcounty.gov or call my office at (206) 296-1009 if you have any questions regarding this or any other matter involving county government.

Best regards,

Reagan Dunn
King County Councilmember, District 9
