“Operating out of the county’s mothballed Kenmore precinct office, Mary’s Place has been a tremendous partner over the last seven years, welcoming over 500 families and nearly 1,000 children in our Northshore community and helping 191 families secure stable housing,” said Councilmember Rod Dembowski.
“Unfortunately their move left virtually no emergency shelter space in North King County, so I went to work with City of Kenmore officials and Lake City Partners – which already successfully runs the Oaks shelter in Shoreline – to see if a new shelter could be opened in the Kenmore location.
"We then worked to identify $675,000 in the county’s budget to fund this project and I was thrilled to host today’s announcement event.”

“Lake City Partners are thrilled to be opening a Senior Women's Shelter program in Kenmore,” said William Towey, Executive Director of Lake City Partners Ending Homelessness.
“One of our fastest growing subgroups of unsheltered clients are very low-income seniors. This new shelter program will provide a much-needed increase in capacity to our North King County homelessness response -- one that serves senior women, a particularly vulnerable subset of our unsheltered clients.”

"After seven years of partnership with Mary's Place, we are excited to welcome Lake City Partners to the old police precinct,” said Kenmore Mayor Nigel Herbig. “They have worked in Kenmore before, and will ensure that the building continues to be used to help our neighbors experiencing homelessness."
“The mandatory recount underscores the importance of every vote and reaffirms the commitment of our county election officials to ensuring accurate election results. We ask for everyone's patience as county election officials administer the manual recount to ensure that the intent of every voter is accurately heard.”

WASHINGTON — A Washington State man was arrested on felony and misdemeanor charges related to his alleged conduct during the Jan. 6, 2021, breach of the U.S. Capitol. His alleged actions and the actions of others disrupted a joint session of the U.S. Congress convened to ascertain and count the electoral votes related to the 2020 presidential election.

In part, Hodo stated, "it is our constitutional duty, we have to stand up to a tyrannical government, we are not supposed to secede to a tyrannical government," then went on to claim that he supported the police, before proclaiming that "every treasonous traitor will be hung . . . . we will take our country back."After handing off the megaphone to another rioter, he looked at the officers on the police line and said, "you guys are a f— disgrace."
It is then alleged that Hodo picked up an object off the ground that appeared to be a canister of pepper spray and attempted to spray it at the officers; however, the canister was not deployed. Hodo then allegedly threw the canister in the direction of the police officers.
In an open-source video, Hodo can be heard stating, "It could get a lot worse, we came in peace this time, it could get a lot worse, believe me we are well armed if we need to be."
