District 12 Rep. Brian Burnett conceded his re-election bid on Thursday to Democratic challenger Stacy Willoughby. Burnett trails Willoughby by less than 750 votes. The district comprises all of Chelan County and parts of Snohomish and King counties. Chelan and Snohomish counties have nearly completed counting ballots, but King County, where Willoughby leads with 58% of the votes, still has 15,000 votes left to county, according to the Secretary of State's Office.

King County Shrinks Vashon Septic Inspection Zone From 1,300 Parcels to Just 75 Properties

King County has dramatically scaled back a proposal that would have required septic inspections on roughly 1,300 waterfront parcels on Vashon Island, narrowing the plan to about 75 properties clustered along isolated shoreline stretches. County officials say the smaller zone can still satisfy the minimum requirements of state law while sparing hundreds of homeowners from new inspection mandates.

Pierce County city wants a new tax on warehouses. Will more cities follow?

Warehouses are set to become a source of new tax revenue for the city of Fife under an ordinance that’s been in the works for more than a year. What’s left is figuring out the exact details of what the tax structure will look like. Following a lengthy discussion and debate among Fife council members at the regular Nov. 10 meeting, the council voted to approve an initial version of the measure on first reading, but made clear that language would be adjusted for the second, final reading, which could be as soon as two weeks. Fife, along with other Pierce County metros, has seen its share of warehouse development with its proximity to the Port of Tacoma and Interstate 5. According to Fife’s website: “Businesses operating large warehouse and logistics facilities generate significant road usage and infrastructure wear, while contributing less through retail sales tax than other business types. This tax is designed to create a closer link between infrastructure demand and funding.” The council on Tuesday appeared to be moving toward restricting the revenue to the cost of administering the tax in the first year, return funds to the transportation benefit district that came out of the fund

King County Metro planning service changes for new Renton Transit Center

As part of the Stride S1 line, Sound Transit is building a new transit center in Renton, adjacent to the existing South Renton Park and Ride. When it opens in 2028, it will be known as simply Renton Transit Center, and will replace both the existing Renton Transit Center in downtown Renton, and the adjacent South Renton Park and Ride. Commuters need not fret over lack of parking, as the new transit center will include a new garage dedicated for commuter parking that is larger than the parking at both current facilities that are reserved for transit commuters. With the transit center moving, bus service has to move with it, and Metro has made its first service proposal on what that may look like in its Renton Area Mobility Project (RAMP). Details below the jump.

Just four votes separate candidates in East Pierce County state House race

A person who represents East Pierce County in the Washington state Legislature has run for re-election — and her bid for another term is on thin ice. According to the Washington Secretary of State’s website , the race for the 25th Legislative District’s second state representative has a four-vote difference. As of 2:40 p.m. on Wednesday, Republican incumbent Cyndy Jacobsen has 28,359 votes (49.97%) to Democratic challenger Jenn Marie Strickling’s 28,355 (49.97%). The 25th Legislative District stretches across Puyallup, South Hill and the Summit-Waller area. Voters first elected Jacobsen to the seat in 2020, replacing Rep. Chris Gildon (R), who went on to become the district’s state senator. She has been re-elected twice, once in 2022 and once in 2024. Before running for her seat in Olympia, Jacobsen served one term on the Puyallup City Council. According to the voter’s guide , Strickling is from Orting and served on the Pierce County Charter Review Commission after being elected in 2025. Jacobsen ran alongside fellow representative Michael Keaton (R), whose bid for a second term looks unlikely. As of Wednesday afternoon, Keaton had received 27,951 votes to Democratic challenger David Berg’s 28,851 votes — a 900-vote difference. Kyle Haugh, elections manager

Keep your eye on the water this month. King tides and Kelvin waves are coming

In The Grateful Dead’s first Billboard Hot 100 single, “Uncle John’s Band,” Jerry Garcia famously sings, “Got some things to talk about, here beside the rising tide.” Here in the Pacific Northwest, we’re no strangers to rising waters in the winter, with our king tides usually arriving in November and lasting through February. This year, there’s a bit more to talk about, though. King tides arrive this year on Nov. 23 and will stick around until Nov. 27. They reappear again on Dec. 22. NOAA is forecasting high tides up to 13 feet in the Puget Sound during November’s king tides. In addition to marking the arrival of Washington’s king tides, November is also our stormiest month. Forecasters are calling this week’s weather a “ storm train ,” with atmospheric rivers converging over Western Washington to bring multiple days of gusty winds and smattering rain. Nov. 8 saw huge waves bashing Washington’s coastline as a weekend windstorm knocked the power out for over 100,000 customers across Western Washington. When high winds and waves sync up with king tides, much of Washington, from the coast to the inland waters of Puget Sound, has to prepare for rising waters (think levees, bulkheads

A doughnut counter in Washington unlocks its doors at 4 AM, seven days a week. Another one simply never closes, so a maple bar could be waiting for you at 3 in the morning. I love that kind of stubborn devotion. The maple bar is a plain rectangle of raised dough with a sweet maple glaze.

New Pierce County boutique with a beachy, vintage style opens soon

The Big Dark may be upon us, but it’s summer somewhere. At Kspek , Gig Harbor’s newest boutique in the downtown business district with a target opening date of Nov. 28, bold patterns, sun-faded fabrics and the slightly fuzzy, cottony texture of beach towels feature brightly in sweatshirts, jackets and bags. Led by Kathleen Vanderspek, a fashion designer who formerly worked for brands like Tommy Bahama and Buki , a Seattle-based brand specializing in travel luxury wear, the new studio at 7706 Pioneer Way will be Vanderspek’s first brick-and-mortar shop. She previously sold her products online and via Harbornest , another downtown boutique that will continue carrying her products. “I love the nostalgia of a vintage beach towel, and that’s really what drew me to working with them,” said Vanderspek in an interview Tuesday, adding that she grew up on Lake Michigan and spent a lot of time at the pool and going to the beach, taking her beach towel everywhere. Most of the towels she upcycles into sweatshirts and bags are from the ‘80s and ‘90s, she said, which she’s found to hold up over time and that feature playful geometric patterns, fun colors and landscape designs.
