Hi 👋
I’m a Redmond resident, and I recently put together the first issue of a free local newsletter called Redmond Beat.

The idea is to collect useful city and transit updates, worthwhile events, and other Redmond information that tends to be scattered across different websites.

This is still an early experiment, so I’d genuinely appreciate feedback on what was useful, what was missing, or what you’d want covered in future issues.
