About CNW
We are your neighbors. Like you, we love our quiet, charming community in its wooded setting. Woodinville was incorporated in 1993 to protect the area from the exploding growth occurring in unincorporated King County.
Established with WA State as a non-profit organization, CNW was formed in May 2004 in response to several proposed changes to the rural character of Woodinville and surrounding neighborhoods. CNW is not, and was never, a 501c3 -- our mission requires us to take political action.
Today we are the largest and oldest community advocacy organization in the greater Woodinville area. And, as safety concerns, traffic jams, and fighting the potential new dump site come to the forefront, we’ll be there to help protect the tax-paying, voting citizens of Woodinville.
We’ll also help keep the Woodinville City Council accountable for their actions—and their voting record.
CNW's Mission
CNW wants to maintain the City of Woodinville's promise to "preserve our Northwest woodland character, our open space, and our clean environment."
We believe high-density housing in neighborhoods that don’t have the supporting infrastructure are in direct conflict with the City's vision. Implementing random upzoning or “urban sprawl” would show the City is abandoning its vision and the very reason for its formation.
"If I wanted to live in a crowded neighborhood like Lynnwood, I would have moved there."
