On June 2, I sent out an email to the Kent Mayor Suzette Cooke with a few photographs of the James Street, with a request (for the city) to build a sidewalk.<\/p>\n

She responded within an hour, assuring that while they do not have enough money to install a complete sidewalk, they will build a 5-foot wide asphalt path with a modified curb by year’s end.<\/p>\n

The new paved path was recently completed. Now I feel safe and enjoy walking daily on the new paved path.<\/p>\n

Special recognition and thanks goes to Mayor Cooke and her staff who kept up with their promise.<\/p>\n

Taxpayers dollars well spent, appreciate much.<\/p>\n
