>> I THINK THERE'S QUESTIONS. 

555
00:22:09,828 --> 00:22:11,596
YOU WANTED EVERYBODY TO GO FAST.

556
00:22:11,596 --> 00:22:14,066

557
00:22:14,066 --> 00:22:17,536
>> I WANT TO KNOW WHAT PEOPLE'S

558
00:22:17,536 --> 00:22:17,903
BRACKETS ARE. 

559
00:22:17,903 --> 00:22:19,137
>> COUNCIL MEMBER FOSTER 

560
00:22:19,137 --> 00:22:23,175
FOLLOWED BY COUNCIL MEMBER 

561
00:22:23,175 --> 00:22:23,408
RINCK. 

562
00:22:23,408 --> 00:22:29,848
>> I WAS JUST MISSING WITH AUNTY

563
00:22:29,848 --> 00:22:30,382
COUNCIL MEMBER JUAREZ. 

564
00:22:30,382 --> 00:22:34,653
>> I GET A FEW EXTRA MINUTES. 

565
00:22:34,653 --> 00:22:38,156
>> I HAD A QUESTION ABOUT THE 

566
00:22:38,156 --> 00:22:39,725
GEEK WIRE EVENT. WAS REALLY 

567
00:22:39,725 --> 00:22:43,328
CURIOUS BECAUSE DURING PSRC 

568
00:22:43,328 --> 00:22:44,896
EXECUTIVE BOARD LAST WEEK AS 

569
00:22:44,896 --> 00:22:48,700
WELL, WE HAD GOVERNOR GREGOIRE 

570
00:22:48,700 --> 00:22:52,070
PRESENTING FOR THE STATE. WE HAD

571
00:22:52,070 --> 00:22:57,843
A ROBUST DISCUSSION ABOUT AI. I 

572
00:22:57,843 --> 00:23:02,114
WAS WONDER IF AT ALL IN THE GEEK

573
00:23:02,114 --> 00:23:03,915
WIRE EVENT HAD ANY ABOUT ENERGY.

574
00:23:03,915 --> 00:23:07,319
WE NEED TO HAVE A GOVERNMENT TO 

575
00:23:07,319 --> 00:23:09,020
GOVERNMENT RELATIONSHIP IN 

576
00:23:09,020 --> 00:23:09,654
CONVERSATION WITH OUR TRIBAL 

577
00:23:09,654 --> 00:23:10,422
PARTNERS THAT'S SOMETHING I 

578
00:23:10,422 --> 00:23:13,792
RAISED AND WAS A PART OF THE 

579
00:23:13,792 --> 00:23:16,461
DISCUSSION. WAS ENERGY DEMAND AT

580
00:23:16,461 --> 00:23:17,129
ALL DISCUSSED AT THIS GEEK WIRE 

581
00:23:17,129 --> 00:23:17,362
EVENT. 

582
00:23:17,362 --> 00:23:18,730
>> I'M GLAD YOU BROUGHT THAT 

583
00:23:18,730 --> 00:23:20,031
UP. I'M NOT TRYING TO BE 

584
00:23:20,031 --> 00:23:21,333
CRITICAL BECAUSE I KNOW PEOPLE 

585
00:23:21,333 --> 00:23:24,302
ARE GOING TO WATCH THIS AND SAY 

586
00:23:24,302 --> 00:23:25,670
COUNCIL MEMBER JUAREZ SAID A, B 

587
00:23:25,670 --> 00:23:29,207
OR C. BUT I'M GOING TO TELL YOU

588
00:23:29,207 --> 00:23:30,776
THE TRUTH. I WAS A BIT 

589
00:23:30,776 --> 00:23:31,843
DISAPOINTED THAT THEY DIDN'T 

590
00:23:31,843 --> 00:23:33,445
FOCUS MORE ON -- WHICH I'M NOT 

591
00:23:33,445 --> 00:23:35,213
SURPRISED BECAUSE IT IS GREEK 

592
00:23:35,213 --> 00:23:36,782
WIRE BUT ON ETHICS AND 

593
00:23:36,782 --> 00:23:37,582
GUARDRAILS THAT WE HAVE 

594
00:23:37,582 --> 00:23:40,585
UNLEASHED WITH AI. SOMETHING 

595
00:23:40,585 --> 00:23:49,428
THAT WE HAVE NEVER SEEN. IT IS 

596
00:23:49,428 --> 00:23:50,962
THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION, THE 

597
00:23:50,962 --> 00:23:52,898
CAR, THE COMPUTER AND ALL. I HAD

598
00:23:52,898 --> 00:23:55,834
A CONVERSATION WITH, I CAN'T 

599
00:23:55,834 --> 00:23:58,003
SAY THE NAME BECAUSE THEY'RE UP

600
00:23:58,003 --> 00:24:01,173
THERE WITH AMAZON AND -- I 

601
00:24:01,173 --> 00:24:02,641
DON'T WANT ADVICE FROM A BOT. 

602
00:24:02,641 --> 00:24:07,245
AND I DON'T THINK CONSTITUENTS 

603
00:24:07,245 --> 00:24:08,113
ELECTED A BOT. THEY DON'T WANT 

604
00:24:08,113 --> 00:24:09,347
CHAT GPT, THEY WANT SOMEBODY TO 

605
00:24:09,347 --> 00:24:10,348
PICK UP THE PHONE. WHEN I GO TO 

606
00:24:10,348 --> 00:24:12,551
A GROCERY STORE I GO TO A HUMAN 

607
00:24:12,551 --> 00:24:13,919
BEING. I KNOW. I KNOW THAT 

608
00:24:13,919 --> 00:24:15,720
SOUNDS OLD FASHION. BUT I DON'T

609
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,490
WANT THESE PEOPLE TO LOSE THEIR 

610
00:24:18,490 --> 00:24:19,524
JOBS. INTERESTING DISCUSSION 

611
00:24:19,524 --> 00:24:20,358
BECAUSE THAT PLACE WAS PACKED. 

612
00:24:20,358 --> 00:24:22,761
AND THESE ARE ALL THE INDUSTRY 

613
00:24:22,761 --> 00:24:26,064
PEOPLE THIS IS WHAT THEY ALL 

614
00:24:26,064 --> 00:24:26,832
TALKED ABOUT. RETURN ON 

615
00:24:26,832 --> 00:24:29,234
INVESTMENT, CUTTING YOUR E-MAILS

616
00:24:29,234 --> 00:24:31,136
DOWN FROM 200 TO 10. HOW MANY 

617
00:24:31,136 --> 00:24:32,471
TOKENS THEY CAN SPEND. IT'S 

618
00:24:32,471 --> 00:24:35,006
GOOD TO UNDERSTAND IT FROM THAT 

619
00:24:35,006 --> 00:24:35,841
PERSPECTIVE. THESE ARE PEOPLE 

620
00:24:35,841 --> 00:24:39,077
FROM, FROM YOU KNOW, FROM 

621
00:24:39,077 --> 00:24:41,146
SILICON VALLEY, FROM NEW YORK. 

622
00:24:41,146 --> 00:24:43,582
FROM NEW MEXICO, FROM SEATTLE --

623
00:24:43,582 --> 00:24:45,717
AND JUST. IT'S GOING TO BE UP 

624
00:24:45,717 --> 00:24:47,219
TO YOU FOLKS YOUR GENERATION AND

625
00:24:47,219 --> 00:24:48,487
MY CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN. 

626
00:24:48,487 --> 00:24:50,121
I DON'T KNOW HOW WE'RE GOING 

627
00:24:50,121 --> 00:24:51,056
TO LEGISLATE IN REAL AND THE 

628
00:24:51,056 --> 00:24:53,592
POWER OF AI AND WHAT IT'S GOING

629
00:24:53,592 --> 00:24:55,861
TO DO WITH THE ETHICS BUT DATA 

630
00:24:55,861 --> 00:24:56,761
CENTERS. HOW THAT'S GOING TO 

631
00:24:56,761 --> 00:25:00,232
LOOK. BECAUSE THAT IS THE PART 

632
00:25:00,232 --> 00:25:02,400
THAT SCARES ME. AND OF COURSE 

633
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,034
THE WHOLE CONFIDENTIALITY. ARE 

634
00:25:03,034 --> 00:25:05,370
YOU GOING TO TIME STAMP IT AND 

635
00:25:05,370 --> 00:25:07,105
SAY THIS IS AI CREATED. WE'RE 

636
00:25:07,105 --> 00:25:10,075
ALREADY SEEING ONE SIDE WHERE 

637
00:25:10,075 --> 00:25:11,042
THEY'RE USING IT FOR 

638
00:25:11,042 --> 00:25:13,144
PORNOGRAPHY, AND CHILDREN. AND 

639
00:25:13,144 --> 00:25:14,412
ALL THESE KIND OF ISSUES. I 

640
00:25:14,412 --> 00:25:15,981
CAN'T EXPECT THEM TO HAVE THAT 

641
00:25:15,981 --> 00:25:18,250
BUT I EXPECTED SOME OF THAT. BUT

642
00:25:18,250 --> 00:25:21,186
AGAIN IT'S GEEK WIRE. IT'S A 

643
00:25:21,186 --> 00:25:22,687
BUSINESS PERSPECTIVE. SO IT WAS 

644
00:25:22,687 --> 00:25:24,122
VERY, IT'S GOOD TO UNDERSTAND 

645
00:25:24,122 --> 00:25:25,523
HOW, HOW IT WORKS BEFORE YOU 

646
00:25:25,523 --> 00:25:27,993
START SAYING WHAT KIND OF 

647
00:25:27,993 --> 00:25:29,294
POLICIES DO YOU WANT TO CRAFT. 

648
00:25:29,294 --> 00:25:31,563
BECAUSE AS WE KNOW, IT ALWAYS 

649
00:25:31,563 --> 00:25:34,532
TAKES SOCIETY A BIT TO CATCH UP 

650
00:25:34,532 --> 00:25:37,202
WITH TECHNOLOGY. THAT'S JUST 

651
00:25:37,202 --> 00:25:38,236
HOW THE WORLD WORKS. AND I HAVE 

652
00:25:38,236 --> 00:25:40,171
THE MATERIAL IF YOU WOULD LIKE 

653
00:25:40,171 --> 00:25:40,672
TO SEE THEM. 

654
00:25:40,672 --> 00:25:42,741
>> I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT. 

655
00:25:42,741 --> 00:25:43,975
>> IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE? 

656
00:25:43,975 --> 00:25:46,778
>> I WAS JUST GOING TO BRIEFLY 

657
00:25:46,778 --> 00:25:47,913
SAY. I KNOW YOU'RE OUT TOMORROW

658
00:25:47,913 --> 00:25:50,181

00:25:50,181 --> 00:25:51,750
SAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR

00:25:51,750 --> 00:25:52,450

00:25:53,585 --> 00:25:55,387
GOING TO GO TOWARD PLAY AND

00:25:55,387 --> 00:25:56,755
LEARN AND SOME OF THE ESOL 

664
00:25:56,755 --> 00:25:58,189
PROGRAMS. I KNOW WE REALLY WANT 

665
00:25:58,189 --> 00:25:59,925
TO MAKE SURE THERE'S MONEY IN 

666
00:25:59,925 --> 00:26:01,693
THERE TO GET THOSE PROGRAMS UP 

667
00:26:01,693 --> 00:26:04,462

668
00:26:04,462 --> 00:26:07,132
SAY THANK YOU TOMORROW. THANK 

669
00:26:07,132 --> 00:26:07,933

741
00:28:46,825 --> 00:28:48,593
ALSO WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT ON 

742
00:28:48,593 --> 00:28:51,696
SATURDAY I MET WITH THE SEATTLE 

743
00:28:51,696 --> 00:28:52,931
YOUTH COMMISSION AT THE REGULAR 

744
00:28:52,931 --> 00:28:54,532
MEETING. IT WAS SUCH A PLEASURE 

745
00:28:54,532 --> 00:28:56,668
TO MEET THESE STUDENTS AND HEAR 

746
00:28:56,668 --> 00:28:58,870
ABOUT THEIR PRIORITIES AND GOALS

747
00:28:58,870 --> 00:29:04,409
FOR THE CITY. I SPOKE TO THE 

748
00:29:04,409 --> 00:29:05,410
AMAZING DEPARTMENT AND 

749
00:29:05,410 --> 00:29:07,579
NEIGHBORHOOD STAFF AND TO OUR 

750
00:29:07,579 --> 00:29:08,980

751
00:29:08,980 --> 00:29:10,048
FOR BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS AT 

752
00:29:10,048 --> 00:29:11,716
THE CITY. I WANT TO MAKE SURE 

753
00:29:11,716 --> 00:29:13,118
THAT THE CITY IS ENSURING THAT 

754
00:29:13,118 --> 00:29:14,486
THESE KIDS ARE GETTING THE 

755
00:29:14,486 --> 00:29:17,522
GUIDANCE AND SUPPORT THEY NEED 

756
00:29:17,522 --> 00:29:20,992
TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THEIR ROLES.

757
00:29:20,992 --> 00:29:22,327
THIS IS UNLIKE AN ADULT 

758
00:29:22,327 --> 00:29:25,830
COMMISSION. IT TAKES MORE OF A 

759
00:29:25,830 --> 00:29:29,334
HANDS ON APPROACH TO ENSURE THAT

760
00:29:29,334 --> 00:29:30,401
THESE YOUTH ARE UNDERSTANDING OF

761
00:29:30,401 --> 00:29:33,238
CITY PROCESSES AND HOW DOES 

762
00:29:33,238 --> 00:29:33,872
GOVERNMENT, LOCAL GOVERNMENT 

763
00:29:33,872 --> 00:29:37,075
WORK. AND YOU KNOW, WHAT'S THE 

764
00:29:37,075 --> 00:29:38,810
MAYOR'S ROLE. WHAT'S THE CITY 

765
00:29:38,810 --> 00:29:39,711
COUNCIL'S ROLE. AND SO FORTH. 

766
00:29:39,711 --> 00:29:42,747
YOU KNOW WHAT'S THE ROLE OF THE

767
00:29:42,747 --> 00:29:43,748
EXTERNAL PARTNERS FOR INSTANCE 

768
00:29:43,748 --> 00:29:45,150
AND HOW WE CREATE LEGISLATION 

769
00:29:45,150 --> 00:29:48,086
AND ALSO MANAGE FOR THE BUDGET. 

770
00:29:48,086 --> 00:29:50,155
SO I'LL BE CONTINUING TO HAVE 

771
00:29:50,155 --> 00:29:52,090
CONVERSATIONS WITH TAO AND THE 

772
00:29:52,090 --> 00:29:53,258
DEPARTMENT OF NEIGHBORHOODS TO 

773
00:29:53,258 --> 00:29:54,559
ENSURE THIS IS A COMMISSION THAT

774
00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:56,327
WAS ON HIATUS AND RESTARTED AND 

775
00:29:56,327 --> 00:29:59,564
I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE

776
00:29:59,564 --> 00:30:01,299
A GOOD PROGRAM FOR THESE YOUTHS 

777
00:30:01,299 --> 00:30:02,133
SO THAT THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT 

778
00:30:02,133 --> 00:30:03,334
THEIR ROLE AS A COMMISSION ARE 

779
00:30:03,334 --> 00:30:05,470
AND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A 

780
00:30:05,470 --> 00:30:06,971
PROJECT THAT THEY ALL WORK ON 

781
00:30:06,971 --> 00:30:09,007
TOGETHER TO CULMINATE AT THE END

782
00:30:09,007 --> 00:30:13,878
OF THEIR TWO YEAR APPOINTMENTS. 

783
00:30:13,878 --> 00:30:15,880
THAT WOULD BE GREAT. SO ANY WAY.

784
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:16,581
WORKING, I'M WORKING THROUGH 

785
00:30:16,581 --> 00:30:23,154
THAT. AND THE REASON WHY I'M 

786
00:30:23,154 --> 00:30:24,355
TAKING AN INTEREST IS BECAUSE 

787
00:30:24,355 --> 00:30:25,390
THIS COMMISSION SITS IN THE -- 

788
00:30:25,390 --> 00:30:27,358
COMMITTEE AND THAT'S SOMETHING 

789
00:30:27,358 --> 00:30:28,960
I REALLY CARE ABOUT. I JUST WANT

790
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:30,094
TO RAISE AN ISSUE WE'VE ALL 

791
00:30:30,094 --> 00:30:31,362
BEEN HEARING ABOUT COLLEAGUES 

792
00:30:31,362 --> 00:30:34,465
FOR THE LAST FEW WEEKS AND I 

793
00:30:34,465 --> 00:30:36,534

UNFORTUNATE ISSUES WITH THEIR 

798
00:30:46,211 --> 00:30:48,012
HUMAN SERVICES CONTRACTS. I KNOW

799
00:30:48,012 --> 00:30:49,714
THAT THE CITY OF SEATTLE 

800
00:30:49,714 --> 00:30:51,549

801
00:30:51,549 --> 00:30:54,219

908
00:34:44,081 --> 00:34:47,051
SPEND MONEY ON NUMBER OF SHELTER

909
00:34:47,051 --> 00:34:50,688
BEDS OR MONEY ON FEWER BEDS 

910
00:34:50,688 --> 00:34:51,456
HIGHER QUALITY OF SERVICE? AND 

911
00:34:51,456 --> 00:34:52,657
FOR ME, FROM THAT CONVERSATION 

912
00:34:52,657 --> 00:34:56,594
TODAY, IT IS FEWER BEDS THAT ARE

913
00:34:56,594 --> 00:34:57,161
HIGHER QUALITY AND HIGHER 

914
00:34:57,161 --> 00:34:58,162
INTENSITY OF SERVICE. HAPPY TO 

915
00:34:58,162 --> 00:35:00,531
TALK TO ALL OF YOU MORE ABOUT 

916
00:35:00,531 --> 00:35:01,566
THE RECOLLECTIONS I'VE HAD FROM

917
00:35:01,566 --> 00:35:02,867
COMMITTEE. AND IT'S ACTUALLY 

918
00:35:02,867 --> 00:35:05,103
REALLY GREAT THAT THIS 

919
00:35:05,103 --> 00:35:09,640
LEGISLATION IS GOING THROUGH SO 

920
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,210
MANY OF OUR COMMITTEES BECAUSE 

921
00:35:12,210 --> 00:35:14,979
IT'S GIVING US ALL AWARENESS OF

922
00:35:14,979 --> 00:35:15,646
THE REAL COMPREHENSIVE ISSUE. 

923
00:35:15,646 --> 00:35:16,280
AMENDMENTS DEADLINES TOMORROW 

924
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:17,281
AND ON THURSDAY, NEXT WEEK IS 

925
00:35:17,281 --> 00:35:21,119
GOING TO BE A VERY TIGHT 

926
00:35:21,119 --> 00:35:23,888
MEETING. AND WE NEED TO HAVE 

927
00:35:23,888 --> 00:35:25,356
QUORUM. FOR THE LIBRARIES LEVY, 

928
00:35:25,356 --> 00:35:27,325
MY APOLOGIES AGAIN FOR NOT BEING

929
00:35:27,325 --> 00:35:29,927
ABLE TO ATTEND LAST WEEK. IT WAS

930
00:35:29,927 --> 00:35:31,262
AT AN AWC EXECUTIVE MEETING. I 

931
00:35:31,262 --> 00:35:33,297
DID WATCH EVERYTHING AND MY 

932
00:35:33,297 --> 00:35:34,966
ATTEST HERE IS THAT I KNOW THAT 

933
00:35:34,966 --> 00:35:38,269
BOB KETTLES FATHER WAS COMING TO

934
00:35:38,269 --> 00:35:40,338
THE U.S. FOR WHAT? EDUCATION, 

935
00:35:40,338 --> 00:35:41,005
EDUCATION, EDUCATION. LINING UP 

936
00:35:41,005 --> 00:35:43,174
THERE BOB. I DO HAVE FOUR 

937
00:35:43,174 --> 00:35:43,774
AMENDMENTS THAT I'VE PUT 

938
00:35:43,774 --> 00:35:47,411
FORWARD. I'VE NOT PUT A DOLLAR 

939
00:35:47,411 --> 00:35:48,713
FIGURE TO ANY OF THEM. BECAUSE, 

940
00:35:48,713 --> 00:35:49,247
THIS PROCESS ALSO MOVING 

941
00:35:49,247 --> 00:35:51,749
QUICKLY. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE 

942
00:35:51,749 --> 00:35:53,784
WE STILL HAD THE ABILITY TO 

943
00:35:53,784 --> 00:35:54,785
DISCUSS THESE FOUR ISSUES. I 

944
00:35:54,785 --> 00:35:57,688
DIDN'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU WERE 

945
00:35:57,688 --> 00:36:00,291
RUNNING THEM. APOLOGIES IF I'M 

946
00:36:00,291 --> 00:36:01,392
LIKE OVERLAPPING. BUT I JUST 

947
00:36:01,392 --> 00:36:03,261
WANTED TO KIND THIS CONVERSATION

948
00:36:03,261 --> 00:36:06,264
ALIVE. THE FOUR THAT I HAVE ARE 

949
00:36:06,264 --> 00:36:07,832
ABOUT ADA AND ELEVATOR ACCESS. I

950
00:36:07,832 --> 00:36:10,134
ALWAYS GET THIS WRONG IF IT'S 

951
00:36:10,134 --> 00:36:11,269
CIRCULATION OR COLLECTIONS. 

952
00:36:11,269 --> 00:36:14,672
IT'S ONE OF THOSE TWO WORDS. 

953
00:36:14,672 --> 00:36:16,407
AND THEN CONTRACTED OUTREACH OR 

954
00:36:16,407 --> 00:36:18,876
AMBASSADORS AND I KNOW COUNCIL 

955
00:36:18,876 --> 00:36:23,181
MEMBER FOSTER WE'VE HAD SOME 

956
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:24,015
REALLY GOOD DISCUSSION ON THIS. 

957
00:36:24,015 --> 00:36:26,150
AND SEATTLE COVERAGE OF CURRENT 

958
00:36:26,150 --> 00:36:27,385
COVERAGE FOR THE LIBRARY. 

959
00:36:27,385 --> 00:36:28,319
INSTEAD OF PUTTING THE AWARD 

960
00:36:28,319 --> 00:36:29,587
WINNING SEATTLE CHANNEL INTO THE

961
00:36:29,587 --> 00:36:33,891
LIBRARY SYSTEM. WE WANT TO MAKE 

962
00:36:33,891 --> 00:36:35,126
SURE THE EXISTING PROGRAMMING 

963
00:36:35,126 --> 00:36:36,761
THAT THE LIBRARY DOES IS 

964
00:36:36,761 --> 00:36:38,362
CAPTURED AND DISTRIBUTED SO THAT

965
00:36:38,362 --> 00:36:40,731
EACH OF THEIR PROGRAMS IS A, 

966
00:36:40,731 --> 00:36:42,300
WIDER REACH. AND SO THOSE ARE MY

967
00:36:42,300 --> 00:36:43,601
FOUR AMENDMENTS. I WOULD LOVE TO

968
00:36:43,601 --> 00:36:45,636
CHAT WITH ANY AND ALL OF YOU AND

969
00:36:45,636 --> 00:36:47,004
IF YOU ALREADY HAVE AN AMENDMENT

970
00:36:47,004 --> 00:36:48,739
LIKE MINE I DON'T NEED MINE TO 

971
00:36:48,739 --> 00:36:52,543
GO FORWARD. JUST KIND OF SAYING 

972
00:36:52,543 --> 00:36:54,612
IT OUT THERE. IN AWC, WE DID 

973
00:36:54,612 --> 00:36:56,080
HAVE THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 

974
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,282
MEETING LAST WEEK. WE DID HAVE A

975
00:36:58,282 --> 00:36:58,916
SHORT LEGISLATIVE SESSION AFTER 

976
00:36:58,916 --> 00:37:02,353
ACTION REVIEW. WE HAVE IN THE 

977
00:37:02,353 --> 00:37:06,324
PAST FEW YEARS BEEN AT ODDS WITH

978
00:37:06,324 --> 00:37:07,725
AWC'S LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES. 

979
00:37:07,725 --> 00:37:09,527
THE CITY OF SEATTLE VERSUS AWC. 

980
00:37:09,527 --> 00:37:13,297
WE SPENT A FAIR NUMBER OF YEARS 

981
00:37:13,297 --> 00:37:16,767
TRYING TO, IRON THIS RINK -- 

982
00:37:16,767 --> 00:37:17,768
WRINKLE OUT. THIS YEAR IT REARED

983
00:37:17,768 --> 00:37:19,136
ITS HEAD AGAIN AND THERE WAS NO 

984
00:37:19,136 --> 00:37:22,106
WAY FORWARD WHERE WE COULD BE ON

985
00:37:22,106 --> 00:37:24,008
THE SAME PAGE. IT WAS QUITE 

986
00:37:24,008 --> 00:37:26,110
UNFORTUNATE. I NOTED THAT FOR 

987
00:37:26,110 --> 00:37:27,411
THE EXECUTIVE BOARD. WE DID NOT 

988
00:37:27,411 --> 00:37:28,246
HAVE FURTHER DISCUSSION ABOUT IT

989
00:37:28,246 --> 00:37:29,847
BUT IF ANY OF YOU WANT TO TALK 

990
00:37:29,847 --> 00:37:31,415
ABOUT HOW THINGS HAVE GONE WELL 

991
00:37:31,415 --> 00:37:32,650
AND HOW THINGS HAVE NOT GONE 

992
00:37:32,650 --> 00:37:36,287
WELL. I WOULD LOVE TO FILL YOU 

993
00:37:36,287 --> 00:37:37,588
IN. AS ALWAYS, DON'T FORGET 

994
00:37:37,588 --> 00:37:38,189
ABOUT OUR JUNE CONFERENCE IN 

995
00:37:38,189 --> 00:37:39,957
SPOKANE. IT IS THE ONE PLACE 

996
00:37:39,957 --> 00:37:42,526
WHERE YOU WILL GET TO SEE YOUR 

997
00:37:42,526 --> 00:37:45,696
PEERS OF OTHER MUNICIPALITIES IN

998
00:37:45,696 --> 00:37:47,665
THE SAME PLACE, LEARNING ABOUT 

999
00:37:47,665 --> 00:37:48,833
THE GOOD TIPS, TRICKS, TOOLS AND

1000
00:37:48,833 --> 00:37:51,736
FUTURE. I'VE LEARNED QUITE A 

1001
00:37:51,736 --> 00:37:53,938
BIT AT THESE CONFERENCES. I 

1002
00:37:53,938 --> 00:37:54,772
DEFINITELY RECOMMEND COMING. 

1003
00:37:54,772 --> 00:37:57,508
I'M GETTING THERE COUNCIL 

1004
00:37:57,508 --> 00:37:59,844
MEMBER JUAREZ. I'M JUST TEASING

1005
00:37:59,844 --> 00:38:01,479
YOU RIGHT BACK, THAT'S ALL. 

1006
00:38:01,479 --> 00:38:04,348
SOUND TRANSIT WE HAD CROSS LAKE 

1007
00:38:04,348 --> 00:38:07,151
CONNECTION THIS WEEK. IT'S YOU 

1008
00:38:07,151 --> 00:38:11,956
KNOW, IT'S NOT CONNECTING 

1009
00:38:11,956 --> 00:38:12,957
BELLVIEW AND SEATTLE. IT'S 

1010
00:38:12,957 --> 00:38:13,658
CONNECTING REDMOND AND SNOW 

1011
00:38:13,658 --> 00:38:14,992
SNOHOMISH COUNTY. THIS IS A BIG 

1012
00:38:14,992 --> 00:38:16,060
REGIONAL DEAL. IT HAS THE BEST 

1013
00:38:16,060 --> 00:38:17,261
VIEWS BOTH ACROSS THE LAKE BUT 

1014
00:38:17,261 --> 00:38:19,830
IF YOU TAKE IT ALL THE WAY UP TO

1015
00:38:19,830 --> 00:38:24,435
LYNNWOOD YOU WILL SEE A SNEAK 

1016
00:38:24,435 --> 00:38:25,970
PEAK VIEW OF THE OLYMPIC 

1017
00:38:25,970 --> 00:38:27,838
MOUNTAINS. AFTER THIS RIDE, I, 

1018
00:38:27,838 --> 00:38:29,440
WE GOT OFF IN BELLVIEW. WE 

1019
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,309
SWITCHED TRAINS TO COME BACK IN 

1020
00:38:32,309 --> 00:38:35,713
AND I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO MEET 

1021
00:38:35,713 --> 00:38:46,257
UP WITH MY FOLKS TO GO WALK AT 

1022
00:38:46,524 --> 00:38:51,562
THE NO KINGS RALLY. IT ENDED AT 

1023
00:38:51,562 --> 00:38:52,997
THE SEATTLE -- AND SOUND TRANSIT

1024
00:38:52,997 --> 00:38:53,764
IF YOU'RE LISTENING, I KNOW 

1025
00:38:53,764 --> 00:38:55,433
YOU'RE NOT. IF YOUR LISTENING 

1026
00:38:55,433 --> 00:38:58,335
I'M HERE TO SAY THAT SEATTLE 

1027
00:38:58,335 --> 00:39:00,404
CENTER IS A REGIONAL ASSET. IT 

1028
00:39:00,404 --> 00:39:00,905
DESERVES REGIONAL, THE 

1029
00:39:00,905 --> 00:39:05,176
CONNECTION TO IT IS A REGIONAL 

1030
00:39:05,176 --> 00:39:06,811
CONNECTION. IT'S NOT JUST A 

1031
00:39:06,811 --> 00:39:07,645
SEATTLE CONNECTION. WE ALREADY 

1032
00:39:07,645 --> 00:39:10,181
HAVE THE BUS. I DID HEAR A 

1033
00:39:10,181 --> 00:39:11,782
DESIRE FOR SEATTLE CITY COUNCIL 

1034
00:39:11,782 --> 00:39:13,017
TO SHARE OUR PERSPECTIVES WITH 

1035
00:39:13,017 --> 00:39:13,851
SOUND TRANSIT. I WOULD LOVE TO 

1036
00:39:13,851 --> 00:39:15,219
TALK WITH ALL OF YOU ABOUT HOW 

1037
00:39:15,219 --> 00:39:19,557
WE DO THAT IN A GOOD WAY THAT WE

1038
00:39:19,557 --> 00:39:20,191
ARE PUTTING EVERYTHING FORWARD. 

1039
00:39:20,191 --> 00:39:24,161
SO JUST GRAB ME IF YOU WOULD 

1040
00:39:24,161 --> 00:39:25,496
LIKE. LAST BUT NOT LEAST, 

1041
00:39:25,496 --> 00:39:26,697
DISTRICT SIX AND MORE, OFFICE 

1042
00:39:26,697 --> 00:39:28,499
HOUR. WE DID NOT HAVE OFFICE 

1043
00:39:28,499 --> 00:39:29,667
HOURS LAST WEEK BUT WE HAD 

1044
00:39:29,667 --> 00:39:33,637
OFFICE HOURS THIS WEEK. WE HAD A

1045
00:39:33,637 --> 00:39:38,909
TOWN HALL LAST WEEK WHICH WAS 

1046
00:39:38,909 --> 00:39:44,281
REALLY GREAT, WELL ATTENDED. 

1047
00:39:44,281 --> 00:39:44,782
STEMMING FROM THE YOUTH 

1048
00:39:44,782 --> 00:39:46,650
COMMISSION, ONE OF THE 

1049
00:39:46,650 --> 00:39:47,351
COMMISSIONERS CAME IN AND WE'RE

1050
00:39:47,351 --> 00:39:48,953
ALREADY CONNECTING HER WITH WHAT

1051
00:39:48,953 --> 00:39:51,222
WE'RE DOING IN THE DISTRICT. 

1052
00:39:51,222 --> 00:39:59,597
THE INTERACTIONS I'VE HAD IN 

1053
00:39:59,597 --> 00:40:06,237
THOSE SITUATIONS, HAVE TURNED 

1054
00:40:06,237 --> 00:40:06,837
INTO ACTIONABLE OUTCOMES AND 

1055
00:40:06,837 --> 00:40:13,277
LEGISLATION. THESE ARE REALLY 

1056
00:40:13,277 --> 00:40:15,346
MEANINGFUL WAYS FOR ME TO 

1057
00:40:15,346 --> 00:40:15,980
CONNECT WITH MY CONSTITUENTS. 

1058
00:40:15,980 --> 00:40:16,647
ANY QUESTIONS. 

1059
00:40:16,647 --> 00:40:20,184
>> I'M HAVING SOME CONFUSION. I

1060
00:40:20,184 --> 00:40:23,587
THINK I TALKED TO COUNCIL MEMBER

1061
00:40:23,587 --> 00:40:32,229
FOSTER ABOUT THIS. LAST WEEK, I 

1062
00:40:32,229 --> 00:40:39,603
MET WITH TRACY WOODEN, ALYSSON 

1063
00:40:39,603 --> 00:40:45,676
HOLCUMB, CAPTAIN GREGERSON. 

1064
00:40:45,676 --> 00:40:49,780
COUNCIL MEMBER FOSTER HAS HER 

1065
00:40:49,780 --> 00:40:50,080
COMMITTEE. 

1066
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,617
>> I'M THE SPONSOR OF THE BILL 

1067
00:40:53,617 --> 00:40:54,585
THAT'S GOING THROUGH THAT 

1068
00:40:54,585 --> 00:40:54,985
COMMITTEE, YES. 

1069
00:40:54,985 --> 00:40:57,021
>> SO, BUT MY AMENDMENTS AND 

1070
00:40:57,021 --> 00:40:59,023
THEN YOU HAVE YOURS ON APRIL 

1071
00:40:59,023 --> 00:41:03,194
7th. BUT OF THE THREE PIECES OF 

1072
00:41:03,194 --> 00:41:04,228
LEGISLATION, TWO ARE IN YOUR 

1073
00:41:04,228 --> 00:41:04,528
COMMITTEE. 

1074
00:41:04,528 --> 00:41:05,463
>> THAT'S CORRECT. 

1075
00:41:05,463 --> 00:41:07,965
>> AND ONE IS IN YOURS. SO MY 

1076
00:41:07,965 --> 00:41:09,467
AMENDMENTS GO TO YOU. OR YOU AND

1077
00:41:09,467 --> 00:41:11,001
THE DEADLINE FOR THAT IS, I 

1078
00:41:11,001 --> 00:41:13,504
THOUGHT, I MEAN I GAVE YOU MY 

1079
00:41:13,504 --> 00:41:14,171
ANSWER FRIDAY OR SATURDAY. 

1080
00:41:14,171 --> 00:41:17,208
>> SO AT THIS POINT, THE THANK 

1081
00:41:17,208 --> 00:41:18,609
YOU FOR THAT QUESTION COUNCIL 

1082
00:41:18,609 --> 00:41:21,345
MEMBER JUAREZ. SO, ON WEDNESDAY 

1083
00:41:21,345 --> 00:41:25,049
OF THIS WEEK WE ARE HAVING THE 

1084
00:41:25,049 --> 00:41:26,417
MAYOR OFFICE. WE'RE HAVING 

1085
00:41:26,417 --> 00:41:28,552

ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION WITH A 

1091
00:41:34,558 --> 00:41:37,928
