If you’ve never been to the large raised-bed urban farm at Nathan Hale High School, it is something to see in the summer. Now here’s a chance to see the Urban Farm Greenhouse and buy some holiday swag to help support the students’ efforts. Note that masks, social distancing and vaccination proof is required to enter the greenhouse.
More information will be coming soon, but for now, save the date for the 2021 Pinehurst Neighborhood Fall Craft Fair Saturday, November 13, 11 am – 3 pm Covid safety protocols will be in place. There will be 30 crafters, 10 in each of three outdoor locations that are walking distance from each other. The locations are: 1. On 8th Ave NE between NE 115th St and NE 117th St
2. 12 Ave NE & NE 120th St
3. In the parking lot of Billings Middle School, 8th Ave NE and NE 125th St
Here’s a map:
We are collecting new socks in a bin at the Pocket Pocket park, where the parade begins, if you wish to continue. See the prior blog post for details. The parade starts at 11 am Sunday, we hope to see you there!
We are collecting new socks (and winter hats are ok, too) at our Puppyhurst Doggo & Kiddo Parade at 11 am October 31st. Look for the collection bin during the parade at Pinehurst Pocket Park, NE 117th St & 19th Ave NE. Then for the duration of the drive Zylberschtein’s Deli is collecting for our community. They will collect socks during their Halloween Party October 31, 1-3, and then through November 16.
Please consider filling out this year’s public safety survey, put out by Seattle U. If you have beefs with SPD, here’s a way to voice them. If you have concerns about neighborhood safety, and crime, there are lots of questions about that, too. publicsafetysurvey.org
The special topic at the NPAC meeting this month was an update on Seattle’s Consent Decree with U.S. Department of Justice. Monisha Harrell, Deputy Monitor, was guest speaker. We’re in our 10th year of being monitored while implementing improvements in SPD policies and procedures after complaints were made to DOJ about excessive use of force. In 2012 Seattle was deemed to be in compliance and moved into a 2 year sustainment phase, but then fell out of compliance over a SPOG (police union) action that compromised accountability. Current negotiations for the new SPOG contract are being watched closely. And the monitors are very concerned about what defunding the police might mean for Seattle’s ability to stay in compliance with the decree. The City Attorney’s Office and King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office representatives were asked to explain how some felony charges can be refiled as misdemeanor charges. This is relevant due to some policy stances of the candidates running for City Attorney. See the minutes. Captan Stampfl talked about catalytic converter thefts and encampments, among other things. See all the minutes here. Join Recology for a collection event! Bring your hard to recycle items – batteries, lightbulbs, Styrofoam, electronics, paper for shredding, textiles, and small household appliances. Masks required.
October 16th from 9 AM-1 PM
Lamb of God Lutheran Church, 12509 27th Ave NE
 Plan your costumes for the Puppyhurst Doggo & Kiddo Halloween Parade! If you’re not up for being in the parade, we’d love for to you come be spectators along the route!
