Here’s what’s happening for the rest of this back-to-work-and-school Monday include, from the WSB West Seattle Event Calendar and Holiday Guide:

COOKING CLASSES: “Meatless Mondays” at the West Seattle YMCA (WSB sponsor) with Chef Kim O’Donnel, today focusing on lentil shepherd’s pie, 10 am and 4 pm classes – contact the Y to sign up in advance. (36th SW/SW Snoqualmie)

HALA UPZONING APPEAL: As previewed on Friday, a coalition of neighborhood groups including three from West Seattle (Morgan Community Association, Junction Neighborhood Organization, Westwood-Roxhill-Arbor Heights Community Coalition) will gather at City Hall at 12:15 pm to announce their plan to appeal the city’s proposal for upzoning in urban villages and other commercal/multifamily-zoned areas as part of the Housing Affordability and Livability Act. (600 4th Ave.)

TINKERLAB AT DELRIDGE LIBRARY: Fun all-ages STEM-based craft program, 4-5:30 pm, today focusing on iMovie/stop-motion animation. Free. (5423 Delridge Way SW)

WEST SEATTLE LIGHTS: Music-synched light show, running 5-9 pm tonight (see the full-season schedule here) – bring nonperishable food for the West Seattle Food Bank. (3908 SW Charlestown)

COUNCIL COMMITTEE CONSIDERS CHURCH’S UPZONE PROPOSAL: Not related to the HALA upzoning but – as reported here last week – potentially affected by the fees for it, the West Seattle Church of the Nazarene‘s request for a site-specific upzone to allow 6 townhouses on its “park” site (zoned for 3 single-family houses) goes before the City Council’s Planning, Land Use, and Zoning Committee at 5 pm tonight. (600 4th Ave.)

MONDAY QUIZ: 7:30 pm at The Skylark, six rounds of 10 questions each (as explained here), all ages. (3803 Delridge Way SW)

Thank you to the coalition of neighborhood groups that are going to the City Hall to appeal HALA Upzoning. I really like my single family neighborhood with our 100 year old homes. I’d hate to see a 6 unit apartment go in the lot on either side of me or my neighbors.

Yes……I know to some that’s selfish, but I didn’t move to where I am to live in a multifamily neighborhood.

I hope there will be a report on the coalition of neighborhood groups at city hall today; this is really important stuff; I saw the couple pics and comments on your twitter account; would really like to know more details about what happened today, who all was there, what exactly did they say/do?

Yes, we were there and recorded it all on video. I have been waiting for the appeal document, which was not available at the time. Have been in an unrelated story interview for the past 45 minutes so if it’s come in since then, I haven’t seen it yet.

Sorry, comment time is over.
