I’ll take it.

Ha. Took this 5 minutes ago

Damn I missed it! Is there a wait list?

Both the website and the app are embarrassingly terrible, but especially the website.

I read the food lab front to back like a novel right when it came out before I had even heard the term "urbanism." If there's another crossover event you know about, I want in.

All too accurate. Don't post in a hurry friends.

This is phenomenal. And all 599 accurate.

One thing I love about parking reform is how it moves beyond old partisan stereotypes.

We should be pro regulation *and* deregulation if the result of either is making sure our communities and our kids have what they need to thrive into the future.

More of what we want, less of what we don't.

Aren't those strike-thrus pretty? Congrats @electroberts.bsky.social and the rest of the Shoreline City Council!

Hi Kevin - Could you send me an email at mason.thompson@bothellwa.gov, and I’ll make sure we have staff look into this?

I'd also point out that in Bothell we don't *have* primaries, and only two of four races are contested for the general

This post is an FYI for city electeds

We walked to Westlake to catch the train instead of wait in the line

Before washington state passed hb1110, a suburban elected official near me equated middle housing to ethnic cleansing.

Council Adopts City Code Changes for Parking and Small Business Permitting The City Council approved several updates to Bothell’s City Code related to housing and local businesses.

Thanks to Paige and Shane from Seattle Now for having me on the podcast to talk about parking reform and neighborhood cafes in Bothell!

Thank you for saying this. We're doing our best to make it a great place. ❤️

That is being worked on! Doing one cool thing doesn't mean we don't care about other cool things. :)

Government should do cool stuff like design the best skate park in the area with a roof over top of it. Our community should be a lot of fun to live in.

Thanks to Bothell Parks and Grindline for listening to our skate community and giving them something to be excited about!

Apropos of nothing, my elementary aged kids absolutely love riding transit and will ride the train just to ride the train.

I have it on good authority he's game

It's a great night for a comedy show in the pedestrian street

I walked downtown earlier today and was very happy that there was a shady side of the street to choose

We still have heat islands but at least we don't require them anymore

And we appreciate it!

I'm on the ferry back from Bainbridge as we speak and I envy their water.

Who, in turn, has a cool legislative rep 👋

I'm proud of the work our city does to make Bothell a better place to live.

There's no good reason we should keep subsidizing the traffic and pollution we all hate by spreading us apart. Here's to more Bothell in Bothell.
