You can no longer be pulled over for expired tabs as a primary offense. Probably why you are seeing so many.

[Big Bling]

Dear aa – I am not holding it, so letting it go isn’t the purpose of this post. I believe there are more than a few scofflaws not paying their car tabs. Seems rampant. I notice as I sit behind people at stop lights as I stay aware of what is going on around me. Maybe I should have become a cop. The idea that people are not paying their car tabs when others are smacks of same people who let their dogs run on the beach. Of course I would love to let my dog run around on the beach, so fun ! so carefree ! but that’s not what is the law. There are laws that are in place to keep a society functioning. When I see people flaunting those laws, it irks me. I follow the rules, others follow the rules – why shouldn’t all ?

Hey Westies,
Just wanted to shout out a Happy Birthday to a wonderful neighbor that turns 100 years young today. She has lived in our neighborhood for over 60yrs, still active in her garden and sharp as any tool in the shed.
Happy Birthday, Gwen!

Car tabs have gotten very expensive with all the BS fee’s and RTA tax..
The police can no longer pull you over for expired tabs as a primary offense.
The ticket if you get one, is still less then the tab itself..
The people of the state voted for $30 tabs.., but the emperor Jay cried foul.

[2 Much Whine]

It bothers me as well but in the grand scheme of things there is a certain (small) percentage of people that don’t do their part and think the government is out to get them. Do you want to fall in the bucket of scofflaws or in the bucket of tax-paying citizens that are part of the solution and not part of the problem? Personal choice.

[dreamscometrusy]

Finding a reliable property management firm is crucial when dealing with challenging tenants or if you simply want to ease the management of your property.
I recommend checking out the services offered by reputable real estate management companies like Ramfeld. They have a track record of assisting property owners in various aspects of management, including tenant-related issues.
When seeking assistance with a difficult tenant, it’s essential to choose a property management firm like https://ramfeld.com/property-management/ with experience in handling such situations. They can help you navigate the legal and administrative aspects of tenant removal.

[Big Bling]

Just drove thru a stretch from end of WS Bridge (35th & Fauntleroy) up to Trader Joe’s.

Saw at least 2 cars with WAY expired license car tabs. One was 2 years old, one was about a year old.

Trying to understand why I pay mine each year for fear of ticket & being a tax paying citizen and this tiny example of what is more than likely a wider spread issue. What gives ???

People, pay your car tabs or give me some reasons why not. Cause I feel foolish for paying mine all these years if you know something I don’t.

West Seattle Tool Library (WSTL)

Founded in 2010 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit with the Mission to be a community-led project to provide pay-what-you-can community access to a wide range of tools, training, and relevant advice. WSTL was one of the world’s first tool libraries; now there are hundreds

WSTL has more than 1,000 Members

WSTL Tool Librarians are currently the only paid staff of WSTL and report to the Board of Directors, currently composed of 9 Members

WSTL is located at the Youngstown Cultural Arts Center – 4408 DELRIDGE WAY SW, near the West Seattle Bridge

WSTL Hiring Qualifications

Passion for DIY projects, tools, and serving community Members

Strong experience using tools in a variety of applications (e.g., construction, plumbing, electrical, masonry, auto, gardening)

Strong people and communication skills since WSTL members interact almost exclusively with Librarians who must embody the values of WSTL (see stories below from WSTL Members)

Strong computer skills to use and manage applications such as MyTurn, Constant Contact, and Google Drive

Skills to teach and explain DIY projects and tool use to Members using the Library and Workshop

Skills to acquire, maintain, organize, categorize, store, price, and sell tools in Library circulation, Workshop or Basement Storage

Hiring Timeline

The WSTL Board is seeking to hire at least one paid or volunteer Tool Librarian ASAP; the position(s) will remain open until filled

Hours

The tool library is open Tue, Wed and Thursday 4:45 to 8:15; and Sat, Sun – 10:45 am – 4:15 pm. There are three options for a work schedule:
Weekday evenings only (Associate Librarian)
Weekends only (Associate Librarian)
Both (Head Librarian, Associate Librarian)
Hourly wage:
Head Librarian – $23.00 – $28/hr DOE
Associate Librarian – $20 to $23/hr DOE

Stories from WSTL Members

The following stories were submitted by WSTL Members for a 2023 grant proposal:

“WSTL is a pillar for our community, providing not only the tools, but sharing the
knowledge necessary to complete the tasks.”

“Sharing tools with neighbors helps me feel like I’m in a supportive community where people care about one another and where we do things together.”

“The first 6 months of being homeowners we were fortunate to have utilized the tool library at least every other week. The staff were so helpful, friendly and we were able to meet neighbors during drop-off and pick-up. This is one of the best resources West Seattle has to offer to its community.”

“Some of the first friendly faces I met in West Seattle were at the tool library! As a brown woman folks often do not expect me to be able to fix things around the house myself. The volunteers at the tool library treated me with respect. Successfully executing these house projects gave me a lot of confidence in my own abilities and pride in my home which allowed me to be a more engaged neighbor.”

“I love the WSTL so much. It teaches repair, it makes woodworking and building accessible to a much wider group. …WSTL also aims to inspire people to participate in community projects such as park restorations and pursue sustainability through fun projects like backyard gardens, home energy improvements, water harvesting, and other environmental projects.”

“In our family, WSTL has been an invaluable resource. When we bought our house, it needed many repairs, but hiring professional contractors would have stretched our budget too thin. Instead, we turned to WSTL, where we were able to borrow all the tools we needed, from power drills to ladders. Furthermore, WSTL’s workshops and educational resources empowered us to tackle these repairs ourselves, helping us to save a significant amount of money while also gaining new skills.”

Candidate Process:

Visit the WSTL website: wstools.org

Visit the WSTL facilities (4408 DELRIDGE WAY SW, SEATTLE WA 98106) during business hours, let one of the Librarians know you are a potential candidate to be a paid or Volunteer Librarian and ask to be shown around
