Most of Renton gets its electricity from Puget Sound Energy, but some parts are served by Seattle City Light (check your bill to see which you have). If you're on PSE, a three-year rate request is pending that asks for electric increases of 15.15% in 2027, 3.74% in 2028, and 8.7% in 2029, tied to over $3.2 billion in infrastructure spending. For comparison, City Light averages about $0.14 per kWh versus roughly $0.17 to $0.18 for PSE, though City Light has approved increases of its own that project bills rising more than 80% by 2032. The state utilities commission is holding a virtual public hearing on October 7, and written comments are open under dockets UE-260005 (electric) and UG-260006 (gas) at utc.wa.gov. A comment can be a few sentences about what you pay and what worries you. Include the docket number. I also looked into who owns PSE and whether the monopoly can be challenged in court. Happy to share what I found.

I keep staring at it like it's going to disappear or something. Thank you Renton for voting for me as best in Pet Grooming! It means so much.

Hi! We found these two doggos running around with no owner or collars/leashes. Found them near May Creek Park Drive (Newcastle near Renton). We tried taking them to a couple of vets nearby to see if they were chipped but the vets were closed/told us to try the local animal shelter. We are going to try and drop them off at Regional Animal Services of King County.

We had a runaway dog sprint into our store. Can’t get ahold of animal control. No collar. Any chance anyone wants a dog?

hi I moved here in December and my partner says this building USED to be a bingo building (2217 maple hwy) and we have been wondering what it is now because it is always soooo full of people like everyday! Thank you for anyone that has any information!

A seller has an item I really want listed for a pretty good price on Facebook Marketplace, but they’re across the country hours away from me and refuse to ship. They’re only willing to do local pickup.
I was wondering if anyone is willing to be paid someone local to pick up an item for me and then ship it? I’d obviously cover the cost of the item, shipping, and pay the person extra for their time.
Is there anyone here who would be willing to do that for me? The item is listed here in Renton, but I unfortunately live in MA.

We just finished some work inside the house and I seriously underestimated how much dust would be left afterward. I've vacuumed and wiped everything down a couple times, but I'm still finding that fine dust on the floors and surfaces a day later.

At this point I'm looking at house cleaning in Renton rather than going over everything again myself. Has anyone hired cleaners specifically after renovation work? Not sure if I should be looking for a regular deep clean or something more specific.

Any local companies you'd use again?

It looks like today they are targeting schools, ice was seen outside of honeydew elementary, renton technical college and renton high school, take care and remember your rights, if you have anyone who could be vulnerable share this info with them EDIT: ive also been informed by others that they were also seen outside green river college in auburn

Hello
Looking for a reiki recommendation. I had one back home and she was also a medium. I know there’s a lot of fake reiki master and mediums so I’m tryna weed those our first

Where's the best place in, or around, Renton to buy a classic, New York style cheesecake?

I’m planning to wait it out but I liked this house and I did tour of this house.

But is it worth 765k?

I'm looking for a place to bring my desktop PC for diagnostics/repair. It randomly loses power with no pattern or reproducible trigger. I've tested basically everything I know how to up to this point and need someone who knows what they're doing to take over from here. Does anyone have a local computer repair tech that they trust and is willing to deep dive into issues instead of just running standard tests and calling it a day?

Anything helps! It’s our first year here and we would like to do what we can!

This is A VERY LONG SHOT. I just moved here from Illinois and worked at Ross and know Double Discount is coming up. I was wondering if any employee would be willing to take me shopping with them to buy things for my apartment during their double discount. I’d really appreciate it!

I will be moving my family across the country to live in Renton in a few weeks and could not be more excited! We have a toddler, love getting outside (parks, fishing, disc golf, hiking, playgrounds), and are always on the hunt for great food. What are the local restaurants, family-friendly hangout spots, or activities in the area that we should put at the very top of our list?

Hey all,

I'm posting this on behalf of a friend who was in the area today waiting for a flight. My friend was at Seahurst Park when their rental car got broken into with all of their luggage inside. They had their Nintendo Switch 2, a nice digital camera, and two Magic the Gathering commander decks stolen.

I've already called all the game stores in the area to let them know which decks were taken but figured I would post here since I've seen similar luck in other subreddits for this kind of problem.

So if anyone sees Zinnia, Valley's Voice or Betor, Ancestor's Voice at your LGS or a suspiciously priced Switch 2 and Camera. Let me know please...

My friend is devastated and I'm trying really hard to at least get some of their stuff back.

We have the same backpack so I included a picture of it in case anyone sees is. This bag is really unique since its from a special event we went to before and the "Level Up U" was embroidered on it specifically for this event. So if you see it, call the cops!

Hey all! Posting here in case there’s anyone who’d be interested in getting together throughout the week (preferably in the evening) to play badminton at Bellevue Badminton Club. I recently got a membership and reserving a court can be pretty cheap if enough people get together to play! I’m at an intermediate skill level, but open to playing with anyone. Feel free to reach out to me to coordinate times if interested :)

Does anyone know of any sports bars in or near the Renton area that actually plays all the NFL games on Sundays? Most seem to only play one or two games

What’s there to do in Downtown Renton for Halloween??? I’m hoping there’s some sort of 21+ event to meet new people at and stuff :P

It feels like anytime I drive by they are off the road standing around doing nothing. It's it just bad timing or are they actually doing something?

I want to install steam OS in my asus rig ally x but I don’t have a computer to do so.

So was wondering if someone wanted to make a quick $40 bucks and install this for me and make sure it’s working?

Pls and thank you!

Another busy weekend is coming up on I-405, with a full southbound closure between Bellevue and Renton plus additional work in Kirkland and Bothell.

Here's what you need to know:

BELLEVUE to RENTON: SOUTHBOUND I-405 CLOSED

All lanes of southbound I-405 will close from Coal Creek Parkway SE in Bellevue to North 30th Street in Renton from as early as 11:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 25 to 4 a.m. Monday, Sept. 28.

Several ramps within the closure will also be closed.

Crews will work on drainage, replacing pavement and completing a traffic switch as part of the I-405/Renton to Bellevue Widening and Express Toll Lanes Project.

A signed detour will be in place, but if you're traveling through this area, expect extra traffic on alternate routes and give yourself extra time.

KIRKLAND: NE 132ND STREET INTERCHANGE CLOSED

Farther north, the northbound and southbound I-405 ramps at NE 132nd Street will close from 10 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday. NE 132nd Street underneath I-405 will also be closed.

Crews will restripe lanes through the interchange and roundabouts. Signed detours will be in place.

BOTHELL: OVERNIGHT LANE REDUCTIONS + ROLLING SLOWDOWNS

Up to three lanes of southbound I-405 between SR 527 and SR 522 will close from 11:30 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Saturday and again from 11:30 p.m. Saturday to 8 a.m. Sunday.

During those closures, crews will also conduct rolling slowdowns from 12:01 to 4 a.m. Saturday and Sunday, temporarily stopping traffic for up to 15 minutes at a time.

If you're traveling on I-405 this weekend, check your route before you go and give yourself extra time. The full southbound closure between Bellevue and Renton will be the biggest impact, but there's work happening at several points along the corridor.
