From the city’s recap of the mayor’s heat-wave briefing today:
Case managers in the Human Services Department will begin calling senior citizen clients to check on their welfare. City workers, including police officers, are determining ways to keep the homeless hydrated. Seattle City Light is monitoring electrical demand. Although the utility has reached peak demand for July, the city still has adequate supplies. The utility is contacting its largest customers to request they limit their nonessential uses of electricity.
Libraries are open regular hours, and the city points out that Delridge, High Point and Southwest branches have A/C. Some wading pools will extend their hours – Lincoln Park, which would normally close at 8, will stay open till 8:30; E.C. Hughes, which would close at 7, will stay open till 8; Delridge and Hiawatha, which usually close at 7, will stay open till 7:30.
