Tracy Taylor, who toiled at traffic reporting on KING5, KIRO TV and KIRO Radio, is an award winner in her new career in Auburn. She's now Deputy Mayor:
"I had the privilege of receiving a Regional Hometown Hero Award from King County Executive Girmay Zahilay at his 4th annual Hometown Heroes celebration.
Thank you to the King County Executive for this recognition, and to those who nominated me. It truly means a so much.
I’m grateful for the people who help make this work possible. To my husband, who supports me in living out this public service journey I love every day… to Mayors Backus and Ralph for your mentorship and leadership… to King County Councilmembers Steffanie Fain and VonReichbauer, City of Kent councilmember Toni Troutner, Auburn councilmember Lisa Stirgus, and Hanan Amer for your constant support… and to my parents and in-laws—thank you for being the foundation.
And to the friends who showed up today—you know who you are.
I’ve also come to really value the regional work, partnering with others across our communities to take on the challenges that don’t stop at city limits. This is work I care deeply about.
I’m extremely honored to serve the people of Auburn."
Congrats to Tracy!
