The City of Snoqualmie is set to hold a critical community meeting on March 15, 2023, at 7 PM at the Snoqualmie Community Center/YMCA. This meeting is particularly important as it addresses a disturbing trend of house fires linked to lithium-ion batteries. Local officials will present information on the potential hazards posed by these batteries, which have been increasingly involved in residential fires. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about safety measures, prevention strategies, and the importance of proper battery usage and disposal. Given the recent incidents in the area, the urgency of this meeting cannot be overstated.

The city encourages all residents to attend and participate in the discussion to ensure their safety and the safety of their neighbors. Community engagement is vital in combating this growing issue. By coming together, residents can gain insights that may help prevent future tragedies and protect their homes.
