Seattle Planners Network Activation Time

Good Evening Folks! I know it has been a while since we last spoke, however the time has come to rally and develop a PLAN. There are a few of us who are sitting this quarter out and attending to things on the "street", the next few days will be busy in terms of information traffic and announcements of upcoming meetings and legislative sessions will be coming quickly. I hope that the momentum of the elections, swearing -in, and getting to work by the new administration is stimulating your interest again in the PN Seattle.

So.....let's get to it!

In a series of articles and announcements on State and local legislation the Planners Network - Seattle Chapter will begin to discuss and interact (through presentations, testimony, etc.) with the community.

I am currently sitting on the Neighborhood Planning Advisory Committee (NPAC) representing the Southeast District of Seattle as an Ad Hoc member. I am also, as many of you know working at Yesler Terrace and with SHA (Seattle Housing Authority) on their site development programs.

With that there is HOT news running and issues of social and economic justice are hitting the table. I am calling on folks to jump in when you are ready, willing, and able.

With that, I know that there are other issues to deal with in the region and locally, so bring it on! Let's talk about them and develop a game plan!

Peace

Eddie
