Kirkland holds celebration for new street extension, please give me a break.

Kirkland holds celebration for new street extension, please give me a break.

“Not only will these 900 feet improve the connectivity and traffic flow of the Token Lake economic engine, they will also help catalyze local redevelopment.”

Nine-hundred feet? A city that has gone from 28,000 to 80,000+ residents, since I have lived here, with only 900 feet of new road? Sounds like all it will help are the car dealerships nearby.
