Spokane proposes zoning changes to expand childcare access in neighborhoods SPOKANE, Wash. — If you've been hoping for a more conveniently located childcare option, you might be in luck.

Spokane officials are working to remove zoning barriers that have kept daycare centers out of residential neighborhoods.

There’s just no one that can hold a candle to Allison Krause

help i can’t stop listening to yacht rock

Zoom, zoom

It’s going to be a gooooood pepper year 🫑🌶️

Eliminating the CDBG program would have devastating consequences for @spokanecity.org. These funds go directly to affordable housing programs, infrastructure improvements & public services. This will undermine safety efforts& our work to meet basic community needs. my.spokanecity.org/news/release...

@spokanecity.org needs more housing units at all levels, but especially affordable units. These proposals remove barriers that have stalled progress for too long and give us the tools to put shovels in the ground where they are most needed. my.spokanecity.org/news/release...

Out of office.

Found some new friends at the bus stop this morning 🦆🦆

Everyone, please weigh in on this very important question from my brother

I can never put into words how much I love @jesswalter.bsky.social’s novels. Already counting down until the next one.

Also: 2025 PIT data coming in July. The HUD portal just recently opened, so we will have data to share publicly very soon.

Past PIT counts and HMIS data shows that roughly 80 percent of unhoused people in Spokane are from Spokane County. ~85 percent are Washington and the remaining ~15 are from the PNW.

Turns out, he was right. I had $350 to be claimed. I filed the paperwork and several weeks later, this showed up in the mail. Thanks, Ken, for helping a girl out!

I’m familiar with the program and had checked my name on it before in the past, but never had any hits. Ken kindly told me that I should give it another look. ucp.dor.wa.gov

Some sweetness for your feed. A few months ago, I received a letter in the mail from a stranger telling me I had unclaimed property being held by the DOR. It appears this man, Ken, scours the site and helps alert people when they can make a claim.

Happy canola season to all who celebrate

A fixed foundation, repaired walls, learning our house is plumbed in reverse, and 7 months later, our laundry room makeover is complete 😍

Yes!

A perfect weekend 🍓🌸🐾

Love, love, love that we now have a year-round market in Spokane. (And yes, I bought cold brew, ice cream, and cheese because I know how to have a good time)
