Highline Community Council

The Highline Community Council's proposed bylaws from 1978 outline the structure and objectives of an independent, nonprofit community organization serving the Highline School District #401 area near Seattle. The Council consists of fifteen elected members drawn from five high school service districts, plus ten appointed members, and aims to represent residents by liaising between the community and government on issues including local development and community betterment. While the document primarily addresses governance and membership rules, it reflects the organized civic framework through which Highline-area residents — including those affected by Sea-Tac Airport noise — could formally engage with public policy decisions.
