The City of Burien announced that it will be holding its first-ever, free and open community Economic Development Dialog from 8 a.m. – Noon on Saturday, Sept. 27. This is an event “envisioned as a group ‘ideation’ session centered on actions and strategies that residents, businesses and City government itself can take to advance the economic vitality of the City,” according to an announcement. Martha Bean, a seasoned event facilitator from Seattle, will be hosting the event. All Burien residents are welcome and encouraged to listen, learn and share ideas about how we can improve the prosperity and livelihoods of City residents. Spanish and Vietnamese interpreters will be present at the meeting to assist those community members speaking English as second language. The event will take place at the Burien Community Center, located at 14700 6th Ave SW.
