I detest Facebook.

I’m wondering if there are similar plans (hopes, dreams) for the old St. George Church property?

(This link has no property boundaries drawn, but is just about the same area)
]]>I wanted to bring up an idea on this forum related to the Pocket Park: What about allocating some neighborhood money to a little play structure in the wood chip area of the park? Something small, cute, and natural for the many young kid (1-5 years) that live in the neighborhood before they age-up to the fancier Pinehurst Playground or Victory Heights Playground. Ours could be a free-standing, wooden, out-of-the-box product or a custom-made creation—I could envision a beam that extends between the two Douglas Firs for swings and a base for a platform/slide and other features.
I volunteer to sponsor matching funds for this if we get the appropriate buy-in. Thanks!

]]>Thank you very much for your introduction and your thoughtful, information letter to us. We all wish you the best of luck and fulfillment in your new position as North Precinct Captain! We also really thank Captain Sano for his great leadership and wish him the best.
I recently visited the North Precinct to drop off a No Parking sign that my son and I found in the Victory Creek Park wetland when we were cleaning it regularly as creek stewards. I had meant to return it earlier, but somehow it ended up in our storage shed and I just rediscovered it. I noticed that the North Precinct is still closed for visitors. I am wondering if it will reopen soon and/or if you have a suggestion of what I should do with that sign.
I appreciate your information on the homelessness situation and agree with you that at least a minimal police presence is necessary for encampment clean-up, even if only as a back-up to a different social services agency. I think that the agency that takes on this task is going to discover this soon enough and hopefully we will arrive at an accepted procedure.
Respectfully yours,
Eric Madis

Gulp! No shootings on that section of Aurora since Aug. 26? I work there!
]]>I’m a North Seattle resident intently following the District 5 City Council race, and looking forward to attending your debate. I’m a bit concerned though with your choice of Erica C. Barnett as moderator. I’ve already attended a D5 debate where Ms. Barnett moderated, and I understand there was another I missed that she moderated, as well. I’d like to urge you to please consider a different moderator. Ms. Barnett does not even live in D5, which is fine, but for her to moderate three district debates in one election cycle seems wrong to me. I, as just one voter, would appreciate a fresh voice.
Thank you for considering.
Jen Oxley
