We've Got Questions for Our Local Governments

It’s been over a week since the Viaduct vote, and we’ll admit it, we have no idea what the new plan is. There was some sort of announcement right after the vote that the state will spend some $950 million to spruce it up over the next few years. So, is that it? After years and years of debate, plans, and drawings of ethnically diverse group of people enjoying a better waterfront, was the solution simply to make the existing Viaduct stronger? What are we missing here?

Also, while we’re on the subject of asking questions, what was Nick Licata thinking when he said that when the Sonics leave Key Arena, "It could go back to its multi-use life that it had before the Sonics, but there are other options.”

That was 1966, I don’t know how many Lawrence Welk concerts and Drop and Cover rallies you’re gonna book.

And another thing, how come it takes so long for the police to respond to a 911 call? We’ve been testing them all week and they get slower and slower each time. Mr. Mayor we demand answers.
