Jenn made detailed recommendations on how to prepare our home for sale as well as pricing our listing, and we carefully followed her advice on both fronts. She landed us seven offers that resulted in our home selling for $100k over asking price. When we were purchasing our new home, she helped us tailor our offer to best compete and quickly landed us in our dream home. Whether you're buying or selling, if you're looking for an agent with deep knowledge of the local market and who is warm, honest, and a genuine pleasure to work with, hire Jenn Flynn - you won't regret it.

  • Hunter Farm Gathering Place Project Moving Towards Late August Build
    Wedgwood Echo 1 VOLUME 26, ISSUE IV JULY 2011 Hunter Farm Gathering Place Project Moving Towards Late August Build As many are aware, the Wedgwood Community Council (WCC) has received a grant, through the Pomegranate Center and Tully‘s Coffee, to work with the Hunter Family (of Hunter Tree Farms) to develop a 'gathering place' on their property. The project, which has been coined ―Hunter-Gatherers‖ by the Pome- granate Center, is on a tight timeline, and is moving full steam ahead. On June 11th, nearly 90 people packed the Fellowship Hall of Messiah Luther Church for the project‘s kick-off public meeting. The day started with a 2 hour brainstorm session (plus Tully‘s Coffee), which led into a 4 hour conceptual design devel- opment session (plus more Tully‘s Coffee), before concluding with an hour long open house to present the concept designs over more Tully‘s Coffee. This was a long but energizing day as nearly 30 people stayed all 7 hours to creatively work together under the watchful eye of the Pomegranate Center to direct participants and keep things moving forward. Some of the shared design principles that came out of the meeting were: Beautify the existing structures on site, due to the budget of the project and permitting complications. Use the frontage along 35th Ave NE to create a courtyard of sorts for people to gather. (Continued on page 7) Pandora’s Adult Cabaret Coming to Wedgwood? In May, the City approved a permit for a new adult cabaret to replace the Seven Seas restaurant along Lake City Way, in northwest Wedgwood.

  • 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.
