Do we know that the shore-to-shore, line-to-line story is untrue? According to the article, it was applied to the 1944 school district, not the city that was eventually incorporated. Maybe the school district included LFP. Iglew (talk) 17:35, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bad arithmetic or wrong dates

From the 3rd para. of History: "After the incorporation of Lake Forest Park in 1961,... Fifty-one years later, on August 31, 1995," -- 1995-1961=34, not 51. Either the arithmetic is bad or one or both of the dates is wrong. 206.180.156.58 (talk) 11:20, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not exactly neutral POV

From the Geography section: "The city of Shoreline also contains a gated community, The Highlands, which manages its own utilities separately from Shoreline as it feels it is above sharing." I think perhaps this should be changed to something a little less snarky. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.190.226.92 (talk) 04:00, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nitpicking

1. I feel that some of the information that is in history section such as how "shoreline" came to be needs a citation.

2. "After the incorporation of Lake Forest Park in 1961, the remainder of the Shoreline School District remained an unincorporated portion of King County. Fifty-one years after it had been named, on August 31, 1995 Shoreline was officially incorporated as a code city and adopted the council-manager form of government. " this line is unclear because I am not sure if it is 51 years before 1961 or from 1961 to 1995 which would make the math wrong?
