In the wake of the recent windstorm and our cleanup efforts, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to everyone who has played a part in helping our city work towards recovery. The storm may have left its mark on our streets and neighborhoods, but it has also highlighted the strength, resilience, and sense of community that defines Redmond.
While we know that there are still residents and businesses without power, I am hopeful that, thanks to the hard work of Puget Sound Energy (PSE), most of us will get power back at some point over the weekend. I’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our dedicated city staff who have worked tirelessly, day and night, to clear debris, and ensure the safety and well-being of the community.
The recovery process is ongoing, and we will keep you updated as we move forward. Here are some City resources that you may find useful:
