Did you know? UW Admin is pushing forward with plans to privatize four student & family housing units. Join TOMORROW to make our voices heard at 4:30pm in Red Square to tell the UW Regents: We demand safe, affordable housing for all of UW and the broader Seattle community 📢
Department store returning to the U Village, but it ain’t Lamonts.
Bloomie’s has a curated selection of brands such as Jimmy Choo and La Mer. The stores offer “interactive experiences” and cocktails. https://st.news/3isV3C4

My prediction is that 4 different progressive-ish urbanist-ish yimby-ish candidates and one nimby obstructionist candidate will run, and the progressive that is least palatable to the public will make it to the general election.

From the inbox: D4 Councilmember Alex Pedersen just announced he won't seek reelection. That makes 3 of 7 sitting district council members who've announced they're not running (all the district seats are up for reelection this fall)

Thanks for covering this! I wish I could’ve been there. I’m Glad to see road diets getting a mention, as they end up creating such a huge improvement for everyone (including drivers).
Nice work with the coverage. I would have liked to have seen this meeting taking place in their sanctuary!
Thanks for doing this live blog. We appreciate it. This enables us to share the details of the meeting with those who couldn’t be there.
Rebecca, thank you so much. I relied on your post to do a report which is on the Wedgwood Community Council page at wedgwoodcc.org I was taking notes with pen and paper! Your live-blog report helped me a lot.
