The SCCF and a Naomi Circle Work Party

In the neighborhood this week there will be a works party down at the traffic circle. We will be digging some holes for trees and pulling up sum sumac roots. This will all take place on Sunday, July 25th about 10:30 to noon, or so. It should be nice and probably on the warm side. If you don't want to dig or pull roots, you might bring some lemonade and cookies down to the circle to sustain those who are. Doing so also counts for hours work as we amass credits to earn the grant that is paying for the parts of the project  for which we need real cash.

In other news, on the night of the 21st there was a scoping process of sorts for the proposed development on 16th and 65th. It was orchestrated in such a way that those attending didn't get to hear the voice of the public. Perhaps the DPD had something to do with that. I wasn't there, but I'll find out more and when I do I'll publish it on the Roosevelt Ravenna Zoning Issues blog.

Last night I went to a meting of the Seattle Community Council Federation. They had a short discussion of the issues concerning the Sisley buildings. I'd never heard of them before and when I find out more, I'll put that on the RRZI blog as well. It might take a few days.
