Crime, safety, art @ Admiral Neighborhood Assoc. on Tuesday

(Flyer photo by Christopher Boffoli for WSB, January 2015)
Crime/safety concerns in the Admiral area, especially after last month’s robberies? This Tuesday (February 10), bring your questions to the Admiral Neighborhood Association‘s monthly meeting, with guests including Southwest Precinct Community Police Team Officer Jon Flores. That’s just one of the agenda highlights, as you’ll see if you browse the flyer above, shared by ANA president David Whiting. (If you can’t see the embedded version, here it is as a PDF.) All are welcome; the meeting starts at 7 at The Sanctuary at Admiral, the city-landmarked event venue across from the north side of Hiawatha Community Center park, at 42nd/Lander.

I wonder if the recent onslaught of graffiti spirals on Admiral Way (on light poles and the bridge near Schmitt Park) will be discussed.

Driving up and down Admiral between the Alki Mail Dispatch and Schmitt Park, you can see that the poles have been painted over several times, only to be “tagged” again with a spiral tag. A few days ago, the same spiral was painted all over the bridge near the entrance to Schmitt Park.

These don’t seem to be the typical “tagger” signatures, but the same symbol repeated over and over.

Thom -the best way to ensure something is discussed at a community council meeting is to come and ask about it. There’s no question that the tagging vandals have been especially active lately.

Sorry, comment time is over.
