Got here a little late, but absolutely love seeing a crowd like this. @SoundTransit board and @MayorofSeattle need to realize how popular transit is in this region. If not for your constituents, do it for your reelection campaign
Very important. If your route is a three digit route that begins with the key between ~ and 2 or CAPS LOCK and S, this is for you (100- series routes or A line).

In the U District, an 8-story building with 29 homes each with numerous bedrooms attached, essentially making for 203 units, plus 0 car parking is going to Design Review Board Recommendation. cosaccela.seattle.gov/portal/Cap/Cap…
Washington State is ignoring its own climate goals to throw money at expanding a state highway system that's being underinvested in to the tune of $1 billion per year in deferred maintenance and this is absolutely not going to come up in this year's Governor's race.

Colorado: 1st state to end parking mandates by judicial ruling (1959) before reversing itself (1975)

National transit trips compared to office occupancy, se @APTA_info chart below. [Pre-pandemic, @SoundTransit 1 Line was almost exactly 50/50 commute vs other trips, a different report shows.]
Sometimes, Council needs a reminder map, or three, of where the existing ingredients for successful neighborhoods – sidewalks, community spaces, and high latent demand, just to name a few – are actually located in Edmonds. (Spoiler: it's not along State Route 99.)

Because of decisions that shape the built environment:
❌We can’t move in ways that feel most dignified to us.
❌We feel very unsafe.
❌We feel unwelcome.
❌It’s terrifying.
We’re forced to compromise & discern between dangerous, unsafe & stressful engineered spaces.🧵
Thanks for the shoutout, @iamjohnoliver! Seattle is not alone. Corporations are spending millions to repeal new minimum wage protections for food delivery drivers across the nation. We can't let them extort our political process.
