Mayor Harrell’s Q&A with District 1 Community Network set for Wednesday

| Neighborhoods | West Seattle news | West Seattle politics

The District 1 Community Network – a coalition of West Seattle/South Park advocates – finally gets its long-planned visit from Mayor Bruce Harrell this Wednesday (June 1st). It’s an online meeting, all welcome; the group has questions lined up, but only gets half an hour with the mayor, so there won’t be much if any time for open Q&A, but the group has been discussing questions spanning a variety of topics, from public safety to transportation to land use to homelessness. (On that last topic, this appearance will be on the day after Harrell’s scheduled Tuesday announcement of his long-awaited plan to deal with the crisis.) The meeting is at 7 pm Wednesday; viewing and call-in information is in our calendar listing for the meeting.

Always remember. Mayor Harrell was a member of the City Council for over a decade. We are where we are now because of him.

He was one member of the city council. Utterly ridiculous to blame everything on him. Personally, I have experienced a greater, more timely response to find-it fix-it requests since he took over. It doesn’t solve all the city’s problems but I believe he has people in place who are listening and responding which is an improvement.

Not even close, he had a vote like every other member too. And was voted in, like the others. It is good of you to give him what, like 5 months in office. He has done more in this time than the last mayor did in the last 3 years. Give him a chance, instead of complaining.

Lucy, good point to keep in mind listening to him. Maybe he has seen the effects and has had a change of heart, mind and opinion now as mayor. I hope so.

Sorry, comment time is over.
