SUMMARY:Membership Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Kent Chamber of Commerce September Membership Luncheon \n\nTopic:  King County Flood Control\n\nSpeaker:  King County Councilmember Dave Upthegrove & Reagan Dunn\n\nSponsor: Multi-Service Center\n\nHost Location : Golden Steer Steak n' Rib House\n\nKing County has experienced 12 federally declared flood disasters since 1990. Flooding affects every citizen in King County: Tens of thousands of King County residents commute through\, live and work in\, or own businesses in floodplains. Flooding poses significant threats to public health and safety\, transportation corridors and economic activities throughout King County. \n\nProtecting citizens and property from injury and damage by natural disasters is a fundamental role of government. In 2007\, the King County Flood Control District was established to provide a proactive\, regional approach to flooding as well as funding to improve the county's nearly 500 aging and inadequate flood protection facilities.\n\nAbout our Speakers\n\nKing County Councilmember Dave Upthegrove was born and raised in south King County. He began his public service career as a legislative assistant to then-Senator Julia Patterson. In 2001\, Upthegrove was unanimously appointed by the King County Council to fill a vacancy in the state House of Representatives. He served five terms in the Legislature\, where he championed transportation and environmental stewardship. \n\nKing County Councilmember Reagan Dunn has spent his legal career fighting to make our communities safer through leadership on criminal justice policy\, his work as a federal prosecutor\, and his dedication to providing legal representation to those in our community most in need.  Reagan was first appointed to the King County Council in February\, 2005 to fill the vacancy created by Rob McKenna's election as Washington State Attorney General. Reagan was then elected in November\, 2005 and re-elected in 2009 with 78 percent of the vote. He now represents nearly 215\,000 citizens in Southeast King County.
