North Bend, WALocal News

Mayor Miller’s quarterly message underscores the unique summer atmosphere in North Bend, filled with community events like the Farmers Market and Haystack Music Festival. These gatherings are essential for fostering local connections and supporting nonprofits and businesses. The City Council is moving forward with a new police services contract with the King County Sheriff’s Office, set to take effect in fall 2026, after evaluating options for sustainable and effective policing. A recent study conducted by the Center for Public Safety Management guided this decision, focusing on community needs and financial sustainability. The Mayor expressed appreciation for the Snoqualmie Police Department's decade-long service to the community.

As summer events approach, residents are encouraged to participate and engage with local activities. The city’s commitment to livability includes transparent communication about public safety measures. More details can be found on the city’s Police Services webpage.
