Dear Council Members,

With the pending decision about the route for the Puget Sound Energy Sammamish-Juanity 115 kV transmission line project, I wanted write you to state our (my wife and I) opposition to route #1.

We live on 124th Ave, just North of 97th St (technically our address is on NE 97th St, but our house sits along 124th). Not only do we already have power lines right in front of our driveway, we are also looking at the power lines that run on the East side of 124th. Additionally, we are close to and can see the steel lattice towers of the Seattle City Light's main power lines that run N-S through the park and over the fire station. You get the picture: I think we are surrounded by enough power lines and object to having a fourth one near our house.

Truthfully, when I first received the flier from PSE about the project and saw the three route alternatives, it seemed obvious that route #3 (Willows Rd) would be the favored one. That is, it seemed to provide the best access for PSE equipment, less disruption for traffic for the duration of the project and, most important, the least long term impact on residents, their neighborhood and home values.

As you represent the residents of our North Rose Hill neighborhood and voice your concerns to PSE, we would like you to include our opposition to route #1 and suggestion to chose route #3 instead. I have written Barry Lombard with PSE to express this view too.

Kind regards,
Ronald & Alice Huiskamp

Hello All,

 

I would like to add a clarification as noted by Isaac (cced)

 

The address: 12328 NE 97th Street, Kirkland, WA 98033 is located on 124th AVE and not 124th ST. The new proposed route for east side of I-405 will go via Willow St (alternative 3) and not affect 124th AVE.

 

Mr. Ronald, can you please clarify with Mr. Barry Lombard that the proposed alternative does not affect you.

 

Thanks,

Atul

Hello Atul, please note that my message to Barry, who I also spoke to by phone, was written before the final recommendation for route #3 had been made.

Not sure where the confusion about my address comes from. I am aware that I live along 124th Ave. And, 12328 is my neighbor. :-)

Cheers,
Ronald
