Mayoral Race - Growing Seattle - A Candidate Forum on Transportation and Housing
Channel: SEAGreenways
Date: 2017-06-23

Seattle is the fastest growing city in the nation, presenting both opportunities and challenges. How will Seattle’s next mayor and the city councilmember from district 8 lead Seattle through this time of growth and change? How will they solve our transportation and housing challenges as we experience this rapid growth? How do they see transportation, land use, and housing as being connected? How will our new leaders ensure all Seattleites have the ability to walk, bike, and take transit to where they need to go? What strategies will they implement to make living in Seattle’s beloved neighborhoods affordable to all? What does equity mean in the context of transportation and land-use decision making?
These are the types of themes that will be explored at our Growing Seattle Forum for the 2017 Seattle Mayoral race and City Council District 8 race!
