Ballardite Brian Wynne knows how fragile a community can be. Having been at law school in Tulane University in New Orleans last year when Hurricane Katrina touched land, he's seen first hand a community dissolve.

If you're considering volunteer work, you have to decide how much your time is worth, and what you'll get for it. In the case of the Municipal League, it's an opportunity to help make government better.

Maybe you won't see a marked improvement in government.

After being harassed by dogs a number of times, a Ballard woman is hesitant to walk her Jack Russell terrier around her neighborhood.
Saraina would only provide her first name for fear of reprisal. She lives on Northwest 57th Street and is a vocational counselor who works from home. She normally walks her dog three times a day and alleges that on April 23, she was walking the dog on Northwest 57th Street near 15th Avenue Northwest when a large Rottweiler came down off of a neighbor's porch and started pursuing.
