Rite Aid to open <\/b><\/p>\n
late August<\/b><\/p>\n
The new Rite Aid drugstore at the corner of Washington Avenue and Meeker Street in Kent is slated to open by the end of August.<\/p>\n
Store officials are expected to start training staff and estimate an opening in six to eight weeks, said Kurt Hanson, Kent\u2019s economic-development manager, at a July 1 City Council meeting.<\/p>\n
Store construction was finished more than a year ago. A driveway-access conflict between the owners of Rite Aid and city officials had delayed the opening. That issue has since been resolved.<\/p>\n
Rite Aid has three other stores in Kent \u2014 two on the East Hill and one on the West Hill.<\/p>\n
Schools survey <\/b><\/p>\n
ends July 18<\/b><\/p>\n
The Kent School District invites all parents and community members to participate in a brief online survey about KSD communications.<\/p>\n
The survey is available through the KSD home page at www.kent.k12.wa.us.<\/p>\n
The survey takes a few minutes to complete and will aid the district in determining how to best share information about schools with the community. Responses will remain anonymous. The survey ends July 18.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
