** IHCA Annual Report: A Letter from the Board of Directors
The IHCA Annual Report for 2023-2024 provides an in-depth overview of initiatives aimed at revitalizing infrastructure and enhancing community safety in Issaquah Highlands. In response to recent crime trends, the association has prioritized collaboration with local law enforcement and community safety committees. Financially, the IHCA is in a strong position, maintaining clean audit reports for the past nine years despite inflation challenges. Significant developments highlighted include the completion of the last house on Harrison Street, the successful transition of 350 units in the Westridge neighborhood to IHCA management, and the establishment of several new parks and community gardens. The report also acknowledges the dedication of its staff, particularly Executive Director Sarah Hoey, who has received her Large-Scale Manager designation.
Looking ahead, the IHCA is preparing for new developments, including the Shelter Holdings parcel, which will introduce additional housing options and commercial space. Overall, the report underscores the IHCA's commitment to creating a thriving, safe, and engaged community.
