Councilmembers Councilmember Dan Strauss and Council President M. Lorena González (Seattle) introduced “Bringing Business Home," an effort to provide additional support and a means towards economic recovery for small businesses adversely affected by current land use codes during the pandemic. council.seattle.gov/2021/02/22/str…

The Bringing Business Home “bill removes outdated land-use regulations that hinder the ability of our neighborhood businesses to recover from the devastating economic impacts of COVID-19." /1

I was thrilled that in light of our legislation SDCI allowed Greenwood’s Yonder Cider to reopen their garage grab-and-go storefront last week. I joined Yonder at their reopening on Saturday and was pleased to see so many neighbors out supporting this fantastic small business.

Today we passed Bringing Business Home! Many of our most successful businesses were born out of garages. We need to support entrepreneurs, providing them the flexibility to operate out of their garages and grow into vacant storefronts.

Councilmember Councilmember Dan Strauss and his Council colleagues signed a proclamation recognizing Samuel Assefa, the outgoing Director of Seattle Office of Planning & Community Development. Director Assefa, a recognized leader in urban planning, will be greatly missed. council.seattle.gov/2021/03/29/cou…

You’re invited to my Town Hall this Wednesday, June 2nd, from 5:30 – 7:00 pm. We'll discuss how we’re using American Rescue Plan Act funding, building permanent housing throughout D6 and the city, as well as how we’re addressing homelessness. Please RSVP: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Public spaces are for everyone in our City. That's why we will continue efforts on top priorities encampments, where we are working directly with Councilmember Dan Strauss, @KC_RHA, and community groups to support neighbors and connect those living unhoused with shelter and services.

Volunteer to pick up litter in your neighborhood through Seattle Public Utilities’ (SPU) Adopt a Street program, and SPU will provide trash pick-up, bags, and pickers to use. This is a great way to help keep Seattle clean. bit.ly/3Ef2T8P
