Mayor Wilson Gives Vision Zero a Deadline. Plus, Will the Millionaires Tax Get Repealed?

from City Cast Seattle · host City Cast

Contributors Ryan Packer from The Urbanist and Hannah Krieg of The Burner join Jane C. Hu to discuss Mayor Wilson’s executive order directing Seattle’s Department of Transportation to speed up its work towards Vision Zero: eliminating traffic-related deaths. Despite the Washington legislature passing the Millionaires Tax earlier this year, folks will be voting on whether to repeal it in November. The trio get into that issue as well. Plus, they share some good news, like the Seattle Animal Shelter is having a fundraiser contest where you get to vote on cute pet photos! What’s better than that?
