  • Seattle Times Article New City Council Bill Would Temporarily Loosen
    New city council bill would temporarily loosen restrictions on home-based businesses in Seattle Callie Craighead, Seattle P-I Feb. 24, 2021Updated: Feb. 24, 2021 3:25 p.m. 3 1of3 Yonder Cider Yonder Cider via Yelp • • • A new bill being considered in the Seattle City Council's Land Use and Neighborhoods Committee could loosen land use restrictions and provide more flexibility for microbusinesses operating out of homes or garages. The "Bringing Business Home" bill, proposed by Councilmember Dan Strauss and Council President Lorena Gonzalez, comes after the closure of Yonder Cider's "garage bar" retail site in Greenwood following a neighbor complaint that the business was operating too close to a church and school and blocking sidewalks. The retail site opened in August 2020 with a walk-up model amid the pandemic, selling growler fills and cans. The forced closure was highly unpopular, and the cidery received over 4,100 signatures on a petition of support. According to the city announcement, the bill would temporarily suspend these regulations for home-based businesses: • Customer visits are by appointment only • There is no evidence of the home-based business visible from the exterior of the structure • No more than two persons who are not residents of the building may work in a home-based business • The home-based business shall not cause a substantial increase in on-street parking congestion or a substantial increase in traffic within the immediate vicinity. This would allow for walk-up customers and lift employment restrictions. The bill would also allow these businesses to have a 720 square inch illuminated sign.

  • May 17, 2021 Councilmember Teresa Mosqueda Seattle City Council 600
    May 17, 2021 Councilmember Teresa Mosqueda Seattle City Council 600 Fourth Avenue Seattle, WA 98104 Dear Councilmember Mosqueda: We write to you today to urge you and your colleagues on the Seattle City Council to dedicate a majority of the new revenue flowing into the General Fund – both from local tax sources and from federal dollars allocated to the City of Seattle in the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) – to impactful investments to address the continuing and growing crisis of people living unsheltered in our city. In addition to the tragic human loss caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the economic impact to families and individuals, businesses, non-profits, and governments has in some cases been unprecedented. We recognize that as a result, the Council is balancing the needs of many interests competing for limited public resources. Placing one priority in front of others is a difficult decision and should only be made if that priority is a city-wide issue impacting the most vulnerable in our community. Unsheltered homelessness clearly meets this test. Five and a half years ago, the City of Seattle and King County formally declared a state of civil emergency for homelessness. One of the stated objectives of the civil emergency order was to request additional federal and state assistance to address homelessness. While this was not the anticipated route by which state and federal assistance would be granted to the City of Seattle, ARPA and the recently adopted state budget allocate state and federal funding to the City’s General Fund at an amount we have not seen in a generation.

  • ` 2019 Seattle Subway General Election Endorsements We're
    ` 2019 Seattle Subway General Election Endorsements We’re excited to announce our 2019 general election endorsements. It was great to see so many of the candidates we endorsed in the primary make it to the general election. Seattle Subway focuses on candidates who we feel will best represent environmental values and stand up for progress on transit and land use issues. To select candidates, we try to take in as much information as possible. Their resumes, voting records, performance in forums such as the MASS forums we co-hosted, and their responses to our candidate questionnaires. We reconsider our endorsements going into the general, endorsements are a process and we learn more about the candidates as the races progress. In the general election, we are expanding our endorsements to include key races across King County and initiatives at the state level. Unlike the primary, we will endorse in every city council race because one of the candidates will hold office and is, invariably, at least a little better than the other on the issues we care about. Our general election endorsements: State Initiatives Initiative 976: Limits on Motor Vehicle Taxes and Fees Vote No Sure, Tim Eyman is a thief and a fraud but his initiatives are also terrible. His latest attempt to defund transportation progress across Washington State would mean massive cuts to ST3 as well as voter approved projects across the state. Eyman doesn’t care how much damage he does to infrastructure in general if he can also do damage to transit expansion. It would be great if this was the last time we ever had to mention him.

  • Treepac Newsletter – April 2020
    TreePAC Newsletter – April 2020 Hello everyone, and we hope this newsletter finds everyone safe and healthy with the CV19 situation here in the greater Seattle area hitting us harder than many other areas of the country. While the overall effect will of course be to slow down public meetings and usual SeaCC action against our trees given other priorities, we still need to pay close attention in case things try to slip past scrutiny (the past two weeks’ SeaCC debacle on CB 119769 exempting public oversight of developers comes to mind, definitely) – keep your eyes and ears open! In the meantime, to the extent that you can do it safely, the trees and urban forest of Seattle can offer some solace. What follows are a series of articles (some old, some new) on this topic.
