Bird harasser says it's great except when it rains
Randy Adams of the USDA operates a radio controlled boat and fireworks to deter waterfowl on Lake Ballinger. His method has reduced ducks and geese from past years, with about 150 birds currently. He counts birds, fires small fireworks, and guides the boat while observers watch. The job runs two to three months and is less fun in rain.

Edmonds School District seeks LID to widen 208th Street
Edmonds School District 15 proposes forming a local improvement district to widen 208th Street Southwest between 68th and 76th Avenues West to five lanes with a center left turn. The plan involves Lynnwood residents and may require dual LIDs in both cities. officials cite traffic signal delays and prior dual LID practice. District officials say bus barn plans prompted the widening effort, while city engineers note nearby intersection issues and funding already secured for signalization. In other business, the council seeks a 30 day escape clause with CASCD amid hotel motel tax concerns and a depleted emergency fund balance of 101,505 dollars.
