  • City of Seattle Department of Information Technology 2008 Annual Report
    City of Seattle Department of Information Technology 2008 Annual Report MISSION We make technology work for the City. The Department of Information Technology (DoIT) harnesses the power of computers and telecommunications to help City government serve Seattle’s residents and businesses. The Chief Technology Officer sets technology standards and strategies to ensure City government uses technology tools efficiently, effectively and wisely. Highlights The Seattle Channel was named the best municipal television station in the country for the second straight year by NATOA, the National Association of Telecommunications Officers and Advisors. Seattle Channel’s web site won first place honors for Best Government Access Website. The Fire Alarm Center moved from Fire Station #2 to the Emergency Operations Center/Fire Station #10 complex in the early morning hours of April 15. The command team of Seattle Fire, Seattle Police and DoIT made the move without incident and with all 9-1-1 calls received and dispatched. Chief Technology Officer Bill Schrier and Emergency Management Director Barb Graff recognized the nearly 150 City employees who had a hand in the successful project with a celebration in City Hall. Power management software is being deployed to more than 8,000 laptop and desktop computers which monitors personal computer use patterns and turns off machines when they are not needed. Initial measurements indicate that the City could see a cumulative energy consumption savings of 30 percent. “This program shows that small, common-sense solutions to climate pollution can really add up,” said Mayor Greg Nickels. Surveyor, the power management software, is provided by Verdiem, a Seattle-based company.

  • Ending Homelessness Sweeps in Seattle
    Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan Seattle City Council President Lorena González Seattle City Councilmembers Lisa Herbold, Debora Juarez, Andrew Lewis, Tammy Morales, Teresa Mosqueda, Alex Pedersen, Kshama Sawant, Dan Strauss Seattle City Hall 600 4th Avenue, Seattle, WA 98104 June 2, 2020 Dear Mayor Durkan and Members of the Seattle City Council: COVID-19 has left our city, our community, and our families in an extremely vulnerable situation. While we know our city government has been stretched in every direction to address a growing number of concerns in this unprecedented time, we are writing to you because we feel that needs of our unhoused community have been severely overlooked. Over the last few weeks, the City has removed people in encampments in Ballard and the Chinatown/International District against explicit guidance from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) that such actions increase potential for an infectious disease to spread and separate people from their connections to care. Moving people from neighborhood to neighborhood or from location to location within a neighborhood, without resources or better places to go, simply does not address the homelessness or public health crisis at hand. Now more than ever we need real solutions to respond to the unmet needs of our community. In order to preserve the public health and safety of both housed residents and those experiencing homelessness during a pandemic, the City must urgently and proactively provide resources ranging from short-term solutions (like sanitation stations, access to public bathrooms, and clean water) to interim solutions (like organized tent camps or tiny home villages) to longer term housing solutions (like individual hotel rooms and apartments).

  • 2020 Q2 Library Levy Report
    Q2|2020 The Seattle Public Library LEVY REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Centering equity, expanding virtual services and confronting new financial realities The Library levy measure approved by Seattle voters in August 2019 provided a clear framework for how the public investment would be used to restore, maintain and improve Library services. This report, which covers activities and spending for the second quarter of 2020, continues the series of updates for the Library Board of Trustees and the public established with the 2012 levy to document implementation of levy priorities and accomplishments. Last August, Seattle voters overwhelmingly approved a seven-year, $219.1 million property tax increase to maintain and enhance Library services from 2020 through 2026. Enhancements include: additional Library hours; elimination of overdue fines; improved collections; more investment in technology; safer, cleaner buildings; and additional programming and services for children and high-needs communities. Many of these enhancements came out of priorities identified through a 2018 community survey that assessed public satisfaction with existing Library programs and services and gauged interest in potential new service offerings. More than 26,000 Seattle residents responded to this survey. At the beginning of 2020, we fulfilled two key voter promises: Eliminating overdue fines and adding an hour of Library service at each location on Sunday. By March, however, the Library was forced to make an unprecedented pivot in response to the global pandemic. Working closely with the city to make decisions, we closed all Library facilities on March 13. At the end of the second quarter, the Library’s physical locations remained closed (except for restroom services provided at five locations).

Residents were invited to participate through open houses, citywide forums, focus groups and a survey that was completed by nearly 33,000 people! Our new mission statement, “The Seattle Public Library brings people, information and ideas together to enrich lives and build community,” is the inspiration for why we open our doors every day. Budget cuts were a major concern with continued reduced city revenue and competing demands for limited funds. A $1.7 million cut to the Library budget resulted in severe reductions to branch hours and the collection, a week-long shutdown of the entire Library system and the elimination of staff positions. We also increased fnes and fees. An anonymous donor – who read about our budget situation – pledged $500,000 if it could be matched by community contributions. The additional $500,000 was raised by year’s end, thanks to the generosity of the people of Seattle! Despite continued challenges, the Library remains committed to providing exceptional service. We added a Text A Librarian service and developed a mobile app called “SPL Mobile” to better serve patrons on the go.
