MAYOR-ELECT’S THIRD TOWN HALL TONIGHT: While Mayor-Elect Mike McGinn hasn’t scheduled a Town Hall in West Seattle yet, the one he’s having tonight in Rainier Beach is meant for the “south” section of the city – including us – it’s at 7 pm, 8815 Seward Park Ave. S. (map).

BAKERY NOUVEAU OPEN HOUSE: More holiday fun – the renowned West Seattle bakery has its Holiday Open House 6-8 pm tonight in The Junction, not far from this next event:

OPENING NIGHT FOR “PLAID TIDINGS”: The holiday musical fave is back at ArtsWest again this year – as explained here. You can see Frankie, Sparky, Jinx, and Smudge in holiday form through December 27, and this Friday night is a special “Toast to the Holidays” – featuring wine! – more about that here.

I attended the Mayor-Elect Mike McGinn Town Hall last night; it was excellent; very diverse crowd; great comments & questions; Mike introduced 3 of his new paid staff; he sat in front listening to comments/questions, then got up to respond; same scenario repeated couple times, and remained after to listen to anyone who wanted some time

oh, and he road his bike to the meeting; wearing his suit!!!

I am very excited about this new administration and transformation for our city
~
I must say though, a bit dismayed that only 200 people show up out of our current population of 600,000; we have a new mayor who is open and wants to hear from you, so show up and participate

It seems to me that all these “town hall meetings” held by the Mayor-Elect is a lot of him sitting back and letting people tell him what they want to see out of his administration. Why doesn’t he stand up and talk about what HE’S going to do?
