On this episode of TLC, Tend Life Community Podcast, get ready to raise a glass and dive into the heart of Woodinville with special guest, Mayor Mike Millman, the city's biggest advocate for progress and community connection. In the 'Sipping on Success' segment, we savor the refreshing flavors of a few Drive Row ciders—a perfect pairing for a conversation brimming with insight and optimism.

In this first installment, Mayor Millman shares exciting updates on Woodinville's city budgets, plans for a much-anticipated recreation center and pool, and the Eastrail Corridor Trail's potential to connect and enhance the region. We also discuss the Growth Management act, its challenges, affordable housing, and traffic solutions (including updates on the Trestle Bridge). The mayor also updates us on the ongoing bid to prevent the Northeast Recycling and Transfer Station (NERTS) from being relocated to Woodinville—a project that could significantly impact the area. The conversation also delves into the current transit situation including the underutilized park and ride and future transit possibilities.

And no episode is complete with a little real estate round up and this episode we hit on assumable mortgages! Tune in for an engaging and enlightening discussion. Cheers!
