Why yes we have been compromised with one of our BECU debit cards. And BECU was excellent with us, closed out the one card it happened with told us to get copies of the charges and where (Walmart online purchase) and “who” it happened with told us to file a police report to which we did. We then dug deeper and to find out it was some one who lived 6 blocks from us and they were only the place of origin for the “items” to be delivered to and then they shipped it off to Russia.
The KCS was confident that the person at that address had no idea what he was being paid on-line to do and also said he had never gotten paid from that person in Russia yet, KCS told him to stop right now otherwise he would go to jail.
BECU credited us back the 660.00 but I think they may not had if we hadn’t filed a police report.
Good Luck with your mess…it’s a time consuming one at that.

Oh and this is Waikikigirl….for the life of me I can never log back on to the forums!

TanDL.. i like the idea of a centralized charity.. but without total transparency and some really effective forensic accounting it wouldn’t change much… and sadly that’s not the Seattle way :(
i do like the idea of tying tax exemptions and concessions to specified charitable donations…
but again.. not the Seattle way :(
“come on down” jobs that aren’t tied to available services .. like affordable housing and public transportation.. exacerbate the problem .. as Tacoma is well on the way to figuring out :(
though they do have a kick a… homeless housing model program.

as i understand it the tax wouldn’t apply to Dick’s drive in or the local groceries.. unless of course you are talking about large national mega chains…

If someone has my items, I would happily give them a reward!

No one has tried to use the credit cards, which is good news and I’ve contacted all of the relevant folks, but I’d be happy if someone could just return my things.

Hello Neighbors,

A very special custom made mens gold ring (with a large blue cared lapis lazuli stone) fell from a pocket while my mother and I were walking along Alki avenue somewhere between 2100’s of Alki Avenue SW and down around the corner from the lighthouse.

We were walking along the East side of the street across from the water at about mid-day today. We spent several hours looking later in the day with no luck.

The ring is very special to us so please call us direct of you find it. Jason at 305-510-9243. I am happy to offer a reward.

Thanks in advance for you consideration –

Jason

Coming here to complain may at least get others to pay attention. And no, calling the police, at least in my situation, didn’t do a damn thing. We had an rv dump it’s black water tank in front of our house into the storm drain last summer. Neighbors called the cops and no one came. We ended up having to contact the city who initially said they couldn’t do anything until Monday (this was a Friday). My husband told them that was bs and that it was 90 degrees out and the neighbors were even leaving because of the smell. They did end up contracting Clean Greens to come out and clean it up, but there were ZERO consequences for the occupants of the rv. I even stumbled upon them on Airport Way a week later (we had the plate number) and called police. They came, but couldn’t do anything. Another week passed and I came across them again near SW Community Center and my husband called his WS cop friend who kindly went and at least told them people were watching and to get out of WS. Nice of him to try, but I still see them ALL the time, usually at the Roxbury Safeway. The whole situation was awful and there was never a punishment, so I’m sure they’ve done it again in other people’s neighborhoods. I’m not saying don’t call police, you absolutely should, but know that that may not fix anything. I can completely relate to the need to vent publicly. When it happened in front of my house, I was FURIOUS. They were really lucky the husband and I weren’t home at the time or we likely would have made the blog for other reasons.

[TanDL]

Here’s an idea… and I can’t take credit for it. I heard it from a friend who is upset at the state of things here. First – Create a tax exempt centralized charity to deal with the homeless issue and put qualified people in charge of running it. Second – Gather large and small businesses together and talk them into donating yearly for which they will get a tax exemption and some free advertising for being good guys (you know… that catching more flies with honey incentive thing our mothers taught us). Third – create a huge city-wide campaign so everyone can get involved in helping out – not just businesses. Fourth – determine EXACTLY where the money will be spent, get buy-in from communities and make each and every expenditure public knowledge so we know what’s happening. Also quarterly progress reports should be published! This City has been completely irresponsible with how money is spent and all you have to do is read the last few Seattle Times to see what messes have been made with cost overruns and bad planning on all sorts of projects. Finally – quit thinking of only how to “tax” people! Think of something different for a change! Try doing win-win for a change instead of us vs. them. We’re all in this city together and we need to come together and get these huge problems solved. Quit dividing us with your vitriol. We need leadership that will unite us… not divide us.

P.S. Does it gall anyone at all that Tacoma is smarter than we are in offering incentives for businesses to “come on down” and get a nice tax break for bringing jobs to their citizens?

so. you overturn the head tax… which in effect does little more than roll back a really small portion of the concessions we gave those corporations to do business here in Seattle…. because.. it’s “head” tax.. and that isn’t right…

that’s the Seattle way.. right.. I don’t like the way that sounds.. it’s not perfect.. kill it.

What is your solution? Because the reality is that some of those employers who would be forced to pay a head tax also pay so little that after paying rent.. if they can… their employees utilize our food banks to feed themselves and their families.

You are already paying a head tax .. you just pay it through social services and your donations to those who are less fortunate than you.

and then you complain about Seattle property taxes and Seattle rents and and and….

does this really make sense to you?
will throw the b…s out and show them who’s boss really improve anything?

just asking.. would love to hear some answers that go beyond.. this just isn’t right

[WestSeattlePat]

My wife and I recently worked with Scott and Chloe on the purchase of a home in West Seattle. We were first-time home buyers, had a lot to learn about the market and home-buying process, and intimidated by the speed at which homes sell in the area today. Scott’s background as a builder and deep knowledge of local market dynamics were invaluable. At every turn, Chloe provided welcome context for how each property aligned with our goals and really helped us visualize the potential of each home.

Scott and Chloe both understood that this was a process for us, and always gave us the space to discuss the pros and cons and let our thinking evolve. We can’t emphasize enough, the value of having two partners willing to step back, really listen, and then guide the process. We never felt pressured and never felt like we were being “sold something.”

My wife and I are busy people. We work long hours and travel for our jobs. Scott and Chloe were responsive to every text, every call, and every request to get in and see a property when a window opened up in our schedule. Made a huge difference. We never lost momentum and always had the info we needed to make the next decision.

When we finally decided on “The One,” Scott and Chloe did a masterful job negotiating. There were a few tricky things to navigate and we couldn’t be more pleased with the final outcome and how they represented us through closing.

We’re sure there are lots of competent brokers in the Seattle area. Scott and Chloe are just next-level. Simple as that. We can’t imagine having had a more positive experience working with them. You should too.

I have been told the outrageous bids I have gotten to build a fence is because cedar is very expensive right now. Does anyone know a fence builder who uses that new fangled plastic board? I hear it is cheaper.

The majority of the city council lacks the political will to take effective action. Overall, I’m satisfied with Lisa Herbold’s work. She’s an elected official tasked with the impossible. This city does not currently have a consensus that would actually solve this issue (which is why politicians don’t take more dramatic action). Personally, I like the take that Redfin’s CEO had on the latest head tax:

And better than that…. The Seattle Times editorial today is urging Seattle citizens to create an initiative to gather signatures that will overturn the Council’s ill-conceived head tax vote that took place without voter approval and place it on a ballot. This city legislative body needs to listen!!! There are better and faster ways to begin solving the homeless problem, some of which have been placed right in front of their noses, but they seem stuck in an either/or mentality and can’t think outside their political grandstanding boxes in order to bring all sides together to find solutions. An initiative only needs 21,770 signatures, which is 10% of the last voter turnout. From what I’ve been reading across this city, that should be easy to get if someone knows how to go about starting this up. We CAN save jobs, be good partners with the business community and solve the homeless problem, too!

Only 2 years into her term, Lisa has successfully sponsored and/or supported measures to create: (a) higher property taxes, (b) implementation of unconstitutional income tax on professionals who make market wages for highly skilled/educated professions, (c) expansion of urban villages allowing multi-family developers to destroy neighborhoods, (d) expanded extortion of job producing employers with new head taxes to deepen the city’s coffers for its deeply flawed and failing homeless program, (e) publicly City-funded investigations into private Highland Park land owners who legally raise rent on their privately owned rental properties as a small measure to compensate for the city council’s continually increasing property taxes, (f) homeless camps that unsafely border/invade residential neighborhoods increasing crime and drug use in what were formerly safe neighborhoods, (g) support for rezoning of single family neighborhoods to expand ability of deep pocketed builders to build multi-family units on lots unsuitable for such development, and (h) refusal to direct existing tax revenues to adequately maintain and repair crumbling streets, sidewalks and other infrastructure in neighborhoods where she continually rezones and permits massive developer sprawl. Notice that her own residential street in Highland Park is mysteriously spared from any of the above decisions. It’s time to begin the campaign to unseat her from office and instead elect a competent leader.
