What is One Thing You Could Change About Maple Valley?

We know we all love Maple Valley, here. So this is a safe place.

We recently polled our Facebook fans and Twitter followers on that question:

If You Could Change One Thing About Maple Valley, What Would It Be?

Here’s what they said:

I kind of like it the way it is. Maybe add a theater?

I’d add a Trader Joe’s (and I’d be happy to exchange the Grocery Outlet for it).

Unique shops and store fronts. Also, a city that supports the locally owned small businesses that are currently here by allowing them to put a simple sign near the street to let us know they are there!

That we would have complete support for school funding

To have a real “downtown” with unique shops and restaurants and walkable areas to create a greater community feeling. That, and a Target.

A YMCA or Community Center with gym space, weights and a POOL!

A safe walk/bike lane along Witte Rd, Kent-Kangley, and extend the path between 4-corners and the Farmer’s Market (aka Rock Creek Elem)

A comic book shop.

We had a bunch posted on our Cash Mobs page as well….one issue we have is that a large portion of our community leaves every day so it is hard for businesses to move in when they are not guaranteed large income during the day

In & Out Burgers!

 

Also, someone on Twitter recommended a Jimmy Johns!

Comment and let us know what you would change about Maple Valley.

    I would stop the building of any more Subways! Three is enough!

    Sonic. A bbq place that makes good bbq. More places that deliver (not more pizza places).

    One more vote for a theater. I’ll vote twice for no more Subways. Also, no more banks or dentist offices. The dentists shouldn’t outnumber the teeth,
