City Inside/Out Special Feature: Roosevelt Development
As Seattle neighborhoods get more crowded, how does the city plan for growth? We take a look at the bustling Roosevelt district, which is slated for a future light rail station. The transit plan and accompanying density has the neighborhood energized, but worried. One key concern is a proposal from a new developer to replace rows of dilapidated, boarded-up homes with up to 16-story buildings and rental units. The community wants change, but how much will it be willing to accept?
|
 |
City Inside/Out Special Feature: Wet Housing
It`s a big societal challenge -- how to help chronically homeless alcoholics. We take a look at a new study that endorses "wet housing" for the homeless. In fact, researchers at the University of Washington say one Seattle facility has saved taxpayers more than $4 million a year. The approach of allowing residents access to alcohol in their rooms is pragmatic and non-judgmental, but it is not without its critics. We talk with study author, Professor Mary Larimer, and profile a resident at Plymouth on Stewart, which supports the "housing first" principle. We also hear from neighboring businesses and residents.

 |
City Inside/Out Special Feature: Yesler Terrace
Since 1939, Yesler Terrace, on the edge of the International District and First Hill, has been home to generations of low-income residents. Unfortunately, it has also become synonymous, for some, with dilapidated public housing and crime. Over the next 10 to 15 years, the Seattle Housing Authority has an ambitious plan to replace the current units with high-rise office towers and condos, while also creating new mixed-income housing. What design plans are currently being considered? What will happen to the more than one thousand people who currently live at Yesler Terrace? And how soon will the project break ground, if at all? We hear from Yesler Terrace residents, the Seattle Housing Authority, the Citizen Review Committee and Yesler Terrace Community Council about the plans to revitalize this prime property overlooking downtown Seattle.

City Inside/Out: Alaskan Way Seawall

This episode takes a look at the history of the seawall, details of the mayor`s proposal and whether it fits into the overall Viaduct replacement project.

City Inside/Out: Assisted Suicide
This week`s City Inside/Out takes an in-depth look at Initiative 1000, which would allow mentally competent, terminally ill adults who have a life expectancy of 6 months or less to obtain and self-administer lethal medication. Till now, only Oregon has a law that allows assisted suicide. In 1991, a similar initiative failed in WA. Is this initiative a humane way to die with dignity, or does it discriminate against the less-fortunate and promote euthanasia? We take a look at both sides of this controversial debate and meet some individuals who have a personal stake in its outcome.

 |
City Inside/Out: Civility Laws
Seattle lawmakers hope to combat aggressive solicitation, violent crime and on-street drug trafficking in the downtown core, but will a new policy cracking down on panhandling help control street disorder?

Douglas sits down with each of them for a critical look at what each hopes to accomplish in the next 4 years.

City Inside/Out: Gun Rights
This week`s edition takes a look at gun rights in WA State in light of Former Mayor Nickels` executive order to ban guns on city property. The 2nd Amendment gives Americans the right to "keep and bear arms,” but gun-control advocates argue that there needs to be stricter gun laws. Do we need to close the "gun show loophole" and enact an assault weapon ban, or does current state law provide adequate protection? Is the mayor`s gun-free policy legal? And why does the state legislature routinely raise and then kill new gun legislation? We talk with State Senators Jeanne Kohl-Welles (D-36th) and Pam Roach (R-31st). We also hear from Dave Workman, Second Amendment Foundation and Kristen Comer, Washington Ceasefire.

On this week`s edition of City Inside/Out, we look at the future of local newspapers, especially in this digital age. Newspaper subscriptions as well as print advertising revenues are down, and with yet more layoffs planned at one of Seattle`s major newspapers, how long will Seattle remain a 2-newspaper town? Will the internet ultimately save or kill the newspaper business? We hear from journalists, publishers and readers about how the downsizing is affecting them, how they are planning to adapt, and what this means for the future of newsgathering and distribution. Confirmed studio guests include David Boardman, Executive Editor of The Seattle Times, David McCumber, Managing Editor of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Tim Keck, Publisher of The Stranger, and David Brewster, Publisher of crosscut.com

City Inside/Out: Pot Policy
Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes is making good on his campaign promise to stop charging people with misdemeanor pot possessions. The state legislature has debated for the last few years about whether to make possession of up to 40 grams of marijuana a civil offense, punishable by only a $100 fine but no jail time. And a new citizens` initiative is gathering signatures to make the use and cultivation of pot legal. Is there momentum to decriminalize or even legalize marijuana in Washington state? And what are the repercussions on the city, county and state levels? We hear from King County Prosecuting Attorney Dan Satterberg, state senator Pam Roach (R-Auburn), criminal defense attorney and Sensible Washington founder Douglas Hiatt. We also meet 2 medical marijuana patients who describe their personal struggles with the current medical marijuana law. In our studio roundtable, don`t miss a spirited discussion with Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes, ACLU-WA Drug Policy Director Alison Holcomb, and Chemical Dependency Professionals Kelly Kerby of Seattle Children`s Hospital and Gary Hothi of the Juvenile Rehabilitation Administration.

City Inside/Out: Seattle Schools
On February 9, 2010, Seattle voters will decide whether to approve $712.7 million in school levies. Proposition 1 is a capital levy for $270 million, and Proposition 2 is an operations levy for $442.7 million. The 2 levies are not technically new; they continue previous funding provided by Seattle property owners, though the capital levy is bigger this time. How has this funding been used in the past, and what projects are they earmarked for, if passed? Don`t miss Levy 101, our background story which delves into Seattle`s school levies and why they are not universally supported. We also check in on the status of the Seattle School district, with an in-studio interview featuring Superintendent Maria Goodloe-Johnson, Seattle Council PTSA President Ramona Hattendorf and former Seattle School Board member Dick Lilly.
