SAYRE rot &?+ *$$&&*? *• I^JJMJWW' 1 - *- \£*- ; * M: . * *>. f* j*^* */ ^ *** - • CHIEF SEATTLE Leader of his people both in peace and war, always a friend to the whites; as an orator, the Daniel Webster of his race. Note this excerpt, seldom surpassed in beauty of thought and diction, from his address to Governor Stevens: Why should I mourn at the untimely fate of my people? Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant — but it will surely come, for even the White Man whose God walked and talked with him as friend with friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. Let the White Man be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead — I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds.

Transit-Oriented Development Map for Low Income Housing Tax Credit Allocations
Transit-Oriented Development Map for Low Income Housing Tax Credit Allocations Kory Kramer and David Schmitz University of Washington Professional Master’s Program in GIS Geography 569 GIS Workshop August 23, 2013 2 Acknowledgments We would like to thank our project sponsor, Tim Parham, for the direction and guidance provided to us as we developed this project. He was quick to respond to tight deadlines and provided valuable feedback through early iterations of the TOD Walkshed Map. We would also like to thank Rebeccah Maskin and Stefan Coe of PSRC. Rebeccah’s thorough understanding of the land use data and its processing was invaluable in our efforts to arrive at defensible transit-supportive density numbers. Stefan provided the data necessary to get us started as well as the Python script used to create the 2012 slope-constrained walksheds. Dan Landes of Shelter Resources, Inc. provided valuable insight during the design considerations phase of the project, and important input after testing the penultimate version of the online TOD Walkshed Map. Contacts who provided transit data include Kit Na Davies and Jeff Anderson with Community Transit, Ruth Kinchen of Metro Transit, Erin Hunter and Teri Lapetino of Sound Transit, and Sabina Pope of Everett Transit. Thank you for going out of your way to figure out ways to send large datasets. Your help is greatly appreciated. We would like to recognize Ryan Curren and Elliott Barnett’s thoughtful comments on how the TOD Walkshed Map might be used by them and their colleagues. Thank you, Ryan and Elliott, for taking time out of your busy schedules to help us envision where our project will go after we hand it off. -
