  • Councilmember Pete Von Reichbauer
    Councilmember Pete von Reichbauer Biography: King County Councilmember Pete von Reichbauer works to make government more accountable. Pete has served in various leadership positions on the council, including two years as Chair of the King County Council (2000 and 2001), six years as vice chair of the council, and an unprecedented three years as chair of the Budget and Fiscal Management Committee. Prior to his election to the King County Council, Pete served as a member of the Washington State Senate where he focused on fiscal and consumer issues while chairing the Senate Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance. As a state senator and councilmember, Pete has promoted expanding parks and recreation facilities as well as enhancing public and private support for education. Accomplishments Some of his notable achievements on the King County Council include forging public/private partnerships to protect the Hylebos Wetlands (a near shore salmon breeding habitat), helping fund the construction of the South King County Baseball fields, blocking the development of Sexual Predator Housing in residential areas of South King County, and securing the acquisition of Bingamon Pond as a County Park. In addition, von Reichbauer helped fund and rebuild Redondo Beach Drive, facilitated the construction of the Federal Way Transit Center and the 317th HOV ramps on Interstate 5, and worked with state and federal authorities to help construct the I-5 Triangle interchange in Federal Way. In the 1990s King County was threatened by numerous secession proposals that would have split the regional government into separate counties. When Pete became chair of the Council, he responded to this issue by hosting an unprecedented 20 public meetings outside the Courthouse, in the process building stronger communication with the County’s rural residents and 39 cities.
