Love to see WSDOT giving minimal weighting to I-90 queues on their scoring criteria for alternatives here!

Weighting criteria for I-90 interchange. Queue lengths only get 5% of the weight

So many other things going on in the world but this is the type of menial but wild stuff I think should be socialized so when AOC or someone eventually proposes reforming environmental regulation they don’t get tarred by whacked out podcasters as some kind of traitor

Private tow companies should have carte blanche to tow cars parked like this, or blocking crosswalks, curb ramps, bus stops, or truck/bus turn clearance areas, without prior city approval as long as they can document the offense with a time-stamped photo.

If you haven't seen it yet, it's a good night to watch FISH WAR, the award-winning 2024 documentary about Northwest Tribes defending their treaty fishing rights through years of civil disobedience protest.

Harrell has repeatedly chased bad public policy at the behest of rich backers, who he’s scared of upsetting. See the South Lake Union Sound Transit fiasco.

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell is seeking reelection partly based on the claim he’s responsible for adding 3,000 emergency housing units. A deeper look reveals that’s an embellishment.

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell says he added 3,000 housing units. Did he?

Now is not the time to reelect a mayor who refuses to take responsibility for the failures of his administration. We have lost shelter beds every year of the mayor’s term, and more people are sleeping outside as a result. We are a national outlier on unsheltered homelessness.

When I was working for Curbed I toured a new MFTE building and they told me that a lot of single moms live there and I mentioned that it's great that they had 2- and 3-bedroom apartments and they said "oh most of the single moms are in our urban one-bedrooms."

Seattle weighs sweeter deal for developers that would raise apartment rent caps

Seattle developers got a pass on $80 million in property taxes last year through a program that has long traded developer incentives for affordable housing.

If it comes to that this administration will have long since done away with quaint formalities like legislatively approved taxes and budgets. Which begs the question: why bother sitting a congress at all?
