Queen Anne Farmers Market Offers Spring Preview Ahead of 2026 Season
Gunfire Rocks Wilson Policy Announcements
Staff Report
ANNOUNCEMENT DISRUPTED The mayor had just announced a new set of city investments focused on expanding school meal programs and childcare services when the incident occurred. (Read more about the announcement on page 4) Following the sound of gunfire, the mayor was escorted from the building by security personnel. Attendees, including city officials, school leaders, and families, remained inside for a period while police secured the area. Approximately 60 people were gathered for the event, including children and parents. ONGOING INVESTIGATION Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes said detectives from the department’s Gun Violence Reduction Unit are continuing to investigate, collecting evidence and interviewing witnesses. Police are asking anyone with information about the shooting or the vehicle involved to come forward. A BROADER PUBLIC SAFETY CONTEXT The incident comes amid ongoing concerns about gun violence in Seattle, particularly in Central Seattle neighborhoods. Earlier this year, a fatal shooting near Garfield High School left a student dead, prompting renewed debate over safety measures, including surveillance cameras and prevention strategies. That case, like the Yesler Terrace shooting, has contributed to a broader discussion among city leaders and residents about how to address violence in public spaces. Following Tuesday’s incident, Mayor Wilson released this statement “Shortly following my announcement of new investments in Seattle’s children and families today, we heard gunfire. No one was injured, but it was a stark reminder of a reality too many people in this city live with every day. We cannot let this become normal. We must invest in opportunity, and we must continue working to keep people safe. Today’s announcement was about making those necessary investments. And in the weeks ahead, I’ll share more about our comprehensive strategy to address gun violence and public safety. Our work, and my responsibility, is to help create the conditions where all Seattle communities can live their lives without fear.” WHAT COMES NEXT Police say the investigation remains active, with no suspects in custody. City officials have not announced additional security measures following the incident, but the shooting is likely to factor into ongoing policy discussions around public safety. For now, authorities emphasize that no one was injured and that the incident appears to have been contained to the surrounding area. More information is expected as the investigation develops.

The market is also seeking volunteers for the season, with shifts available on market days. For more information, visit qafm.org.
Paid Reserved Parking Comes to Light Rail Stations Staff Report
P
arking at some of the region’s busiest light rail stations is no longer entirely free. Sound Transit has begun rolling out a new system of paid, reserved parking permits at select stations, marking a shift in how riders access park-and-ride facilities across the Puget Sound region. The change is designed to address a long-standing problem: full parking garages and limited access for riders who rely on driving to transit.
WHAT’S CHANGING
Beginning May 1, Sound Transit introduced paid parking permits at Northgate, Shoreline South/148th, and Shoreline North/185th stations. Under the new system: • Monthly permits cost about $60 • One-day permits cost about $6 • Permits reserve access to designated parking areas during peak morning hours Permit-only spaces are enforced during the busiest commute window, typically early morning through mid-morning, after which they open to all riders.

unfire was reported Tuesday evening near a Seattle community event attended by Mayor Katie Wilson, briefly disrupting the gathering and prompting a police response. According to the Seattle Police Department, multiple shots were fired near the Yesler Terrace Community Center around 5:30 p.m., shortly after the mayor concluded remarks at a nearby park and entered the building for a reception. Police said the gunfire struck the community center, damaging windows and a door, but no injuries were reported. Witnesses told investigators that several individuals were seen firing shots before leaving the area in a vehicle. As of press time, no arrests have been announced, and police have not released suspect descriptions. Authorities have also said there is no indication that the mayor or attendees were specifically targeted.

Staff Report
At the same time, Sound Transit continues to offer free carpool permits, which give priority parking access to riders who share trips to the station.
WHY SOUND TRANSIT IS CHARGING FOR PARKING
For years, parking at major light rail stations has filled early, often before peak
commute hours. Sound Transit says the new permit system is intended to: • Improve access to parking • Manage demand at overcrowded facilities • Provide more predictable options for riders

Savvy Senior:
The Letter Your Loved Ones Will Treasure By Jim Miller Dear Savvy Senior, I want to leave something meaningful for my children and grandchildren, beyond just money or property. I’ve heard about “legacy letters,” but I don’t really know what they are or how to start one. Can you help? —Legacy Seeker
Y
Dear Seeker, ou’re asking a wonderful question. A legacy letter – sometimes called an ethical will – is a personal note to your loved ones where you can share your values, life lessons, cherished memories, hopes, and guidance. Unlike a traditional will, which focuses on legal matters, a legacy letter comes straight from the heart. WHY WRITE ONE?
Many people think a legacy is just money or property. But often, it’s your words, values, and life lessons that leave the deepest mark. A legacy letter gives your family something
A legacy letter gives your family something to hold onto – your stories, your traditions, and the experiences that shaped who you are. to hold onto – your stories, your traditions, and the experiences that shaped who you are. Children and grandchildren often return to these letters for comfort, guidance, or inspiration long after you’re gone. In many ways, it becomes an emotional last will and testament, answering some of the most important questions about your life. A legacy letter can also help explain the “why” behind your estate plan in a personal, thoughtful way. While a will handles the legal and financial details, a legacy letter adds context – why you made certain decisions or what
you hope your loved ones will do with what you leave behind. That added perspective can ease misunderstandings, strengthen family connections, and leave a lasting sense of closeness. GETTING STARTED
Take a moment to reflect on what matters most to you. Consider asking yourself: • What values or principles have guided my life? • What moments or experiences am I most grateful for? • What mistakes or regrets taught me the most? • How do I hope to be remembered by my loved ones? • What lessons, advice, or guidance do I want to leave for my family? • Which family traditions, stories, or dreams do I want future generations to carry forward? Keep it personal and sincere. You can write one letter or several for different family members. Most letters run one to three pages, though there’s no strict rule. If you’d like a little guidance as you get started, Trust & Will has a free legacy letter writing guide with step-by-step prompts to help you organize your thoughts and begin writing. You can find it at trustandwill.com/ learn/legacy-letter-writing-guide. If writing isn’t your thing, consider creating a legacy video. Speak directly to your loved ones, sharing stories, guidance, and heartfelt reflections. Most smartphones now record high-quality video and sound, making it easy to create, store, and share. A video captures your voice, expressions, and surroundings in a way that a letter simply can’t. STORING AND SHARING
Keep letters or videos in a safe, easy-to-find spot. Physical letters can go in a secure file, safe, or with your attorney, while digital files can be backed up to the cloud or an external drive. You can share them now or wait until later, after you’re gone. Be sure to include instructions in your will so family members know where to find them. When it comes down to it, a legacy letter or video is truly the heart behind your will. It gives you the chance to share your values, tell your stories, and even explain the intentions behind your estate plan, leaving your loved ones with words that will matter long after you are gone. Written with generosity, empathy, and positivity, a few thoughtful pages or a short video can create an emotional imprint that money alone cannot provide.

Salvage Lumber Warehouse Opens in SODO, Expanding Reuse Opportunities for Seattle designed to serve neighborhoods across Seattle, providing both economic and environmental benefits. The warehouse also adds to a growing ecosystem of reusefocused businesses in the region, including architectural salvage companies that specialize in reclaimed building materials.
Staff Report
A
FROM WASTE TO RESOURCE
The new warehouse will serve as a centralized hub for salvaged wood, collecting lumber that would otherwise be sent to landfills or burned for low-value uses. According to city officials, salvaged materials can be resold for construction, furniture-making, and other projects, providing a lower-cost alternative to new lumber while preserving high-quality materials. The warehouse is part of a broader effort to reduce construction and demolition waste, which makes up a significant portion of Seattle’s overall waste stream. Programs encouraging material salvage have already been in place for years, with the city promoting reuse as a way to extend the life of building materials and reduce disposal costs.
A GROWING TREND
SEATTLE PUBLIC UTILITES
new salvage lumber warehouse in Seattle’s SoDo is opening new pathways for construction reuse, offering builders, artists, and residents a place to purchase reclaimed wood and reduce waste. The facility, developed through a partnership between Seattle Public Utilities and Earthwise Architectural Salvage, is designed to capture usable lumber from demolition and renovation projects and return it to the marketplace. City officials say the warehouse represents a significant step toward building what they describe as a more circular economy for construction materials, where valuable resources are reused instead of discarded.
Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson cuts the ribbon at the new Salvage Lumber Warehouse in SoDo, part of the city’s effort to reduce construction waste and promote material reuse. The project has been several years in development. In 2023, the City of Seattle received a $4 million federal grant from the Environmental Protection Agency to support the creation of a regional system for salvaging and reusing wood. That funding allowed the city to secure and prepare the SODO site, with early operations beginning in 2026 before the official opening. The goal is to create a reliable supply chain for reclaimed lumber, making it easier for contractors and builders to incorporate reused materials into their projects.
deconstruction allows workers to carefully remove items like beams, flooring, and framing lumber so they can be reused. Once collected, the wood is sorted, stored, and sold through the warehouse. The facility is expected to serve a wide range of users, including contractors, small manufacturers, woodworkers, and artists. For many of these groups, access to reclaimed materials has historically been inconsistent, depending on availability from salvage operations. The new warehouse aims to stabilize that supply.
HOW IT WORKS
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
YEARS IN THE MAKING
The warehouse collects wood from buildings that are being dismantled or remodeled, a process known as deconstruction. Unlike traditional demolition, which often destroys materials,
City officials say the environmental impact of reuse is one of the primary drivers behind the project. Reusing wood helps reduce the need for new lumber, which
in turn lowers emissions associated with logging, processing, and transportation. It also prevents usable materials from entering landfills, where they may contribute to waste and environmental degradation. Experts note that reclaimed wood can store carbon and reduce emissions compared to producing new materials, making reuse an important tool in climate strategies.
ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY IMPACT
In addition to environmental benefits, the warehouse is expected to support local jobs and small businesses. Contractors and makers gain access to a consistent source of materials, while salvage operations create opportunities for workers in deconstruction and processing. City officials say the facility is
Seattle’s investment reflects a broader shift in how cities are approaching construction waste. Across the country, municipalities are exploring ways to recover materials from buildings instead of sending them to landfills, recognizing both the environmental and economic value of reuse. In Seattle, the effort is tied to a larger push toward sustainability and waste reduction, particularly as development continues and older structures are replaced. The new warehouse is expected to play a key role in scaling those efforts locally.
WHAT COMES NEXT
City officials say the Salvage Lumber Warehouse will continue expanding its services in the coming months. Future plans include increasing inventory, improving access for buyers, and offering opportunities for the public to learn more about reuse and sustainable building practices. For now, the opening marks a milestone in Seattle’s efforts to rethink how building materials are used, recovered, and reused. By turning demolition waste into a usable resource, the city is testing a model that could reshape how construction materials are managed in the years ahead.
City Launches ADA Survey to Identify Barriers on Seattle Streets
T
he City of Seattle is asking residents to help identify barriers across its transportation system as part of an effort to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) announced the launch of a new citywide survey aimed at gathering public input for its updated Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan. The survey, open through September 15, invites residents to share their experiences navigating Seattle’s streets, sidewalks, and public right-of-way. FOCUS ON EVERYDAY BARRIERS City officials are specifically asking residents to identify obstacles that make it difficult to move through the city. That includes issues such as: • Missing or incomplete curb ramps • Uneven or damaged sidewalks • Difficulty accessing bus stops • Lack of accessible parking The goal is to better understand where barriers exist and which locations should be prioritized for improvements. Residents are also being asked to highlight “priority destinations,” or places they frequently travel that may need accessibility upgrades. UPDATING A REQUIRED PLAN The survey is part of SDOT’s effort to update its ADA Transition Plan, a federally required document that outlines how cities will ensure accessibility in public infrastructure. The plan focuses on pedestrian facilities within the public right-of-way, including
sidewalks, curb ramps, and Accessible Pedestrian Signals. Under federal law, cities must maintain and update these plans to ensure people with disabilities can access public services, programs, and transportation systems. Seattle’s update is expected to guide future investments and infrastructure improvements across the city. COMMUNITY INPUT SHAPES PRIORITIES SDOT officials say public feedback will play a key role in determining which projects move forward. Survey responses will help the city: • Prioritize locations for accessibility upgrades • Coordinate future projects • Identify gaps in the current system The city is encouraging participation from residents who regularly experience barriers, as well as caregivers, advocates, and anyone who travels through Seattle’s transportation network. The survey is also available in multiple languages and formats, including options for those who need assistance completing it. A SYSTEM UNDER PRESSURE Seattle’s pedestrian infrastructure has expanded significantly in recent years, but accessibility challenges remain. As the city grows, aging sidewalks, steep terrain, and incomplete networks can create ongoing obstacles, particularly for people using wheelchairs, mobility devices, or visual aids. Accessibility advocates have long pointed to gaps in curb ramp coverage and inconsistent sidewalk conditions as barriers to safe and reliable travel.
SDOT
Staff Report
The ADA Transition Plan update is intended to provide a clearer roadmap for addressing those issues. WHAT COMES NEXT The survey marks the beginning of a broader planning process that will continue through 2026. According to city materials, SDOT will use survey data to help define priorities before developing updated policies and project lists later in the year. Future phases of the plan will include reviewing values, confirming priorities, and identifying funding strategies for accessibility improvements. WHY IT MATTERS For many residents, accessibility is not an abstract issue but a daily reality.
Something as simple as a missing curb ramp or uneven pavement can determine whether a trip is possible. City officials say the survey is intended to capture those experiences directly from the people who encounter them. “Your responses will help us prioritize, coordinate, and develop projects,” SDOT said in announcing the survey. HOW TO PARTICIPATE The survey is open through Sept. 15 and can be accessed online through SDOT’s website. Residents can also request alternative formats or assistance completing the survey by contacting the department directly. City officials say the more input they receive, the better they will be able to identify and address accessibility challenges across Seattle.

PARKING, FROM 1 The agency has said the program focuses on garages that regularly reach high occupancy levels, where demand consistently exceeds supply.
A SHIFT FROM FREE PARKING
Historically, most Sound Transit parking has been free, even as ridership and demand have increased. At stations like Northgate, large park-and-ride facilities often filled early in the morning, leaving latearriving riders without options. The new system introduces a hybrid model: • Some parking remains free and first-come, first-served • A portion is set aside as paid, reserved spaces Sound Transit has indicated that permit areas may be limited to a portion of total parking, with adjustments based on demand.
REVENUE AND SYSTEM COSTS
While improving access is a stated goal, the shift also reflects broader financial pressures facing the transit system. Sound Transit, like many large transit agencies, is managing rising operating costs alongside long-term capital expenses tied to system expansion. Charging for reserved parking creates a new, ongoing revenue stream tied directly to highdemand facilities. Even modest fees, when applied across multiple stations and hundreds of spaces, can generate consistent monthly income. Agency materials have previously indicated that user fees,
including parking, are part of a broader strategy to help offset operational costs and reduce reliance on other funding sources such as taxes and fares. While parking revenue alone is not expected to close major funding gaps, it represents one of several incremental tools being used to manage costs within the system.
WHAT IT MEANS FOR RIDERS
For some commuters, the change provides a new level of certainty. Instead of arriving early to secure a spot, riders can reserve parking in advance. For others, it introduces a new cost. A rider using monthly permits could pay about $60 per month, while occasional users may opt for $6 daily permits. That cost is in addition to light rail fares. However, not all parking is affected. Many spaces remain free, especially outside peak morning hours.
EQUITY AND ACCESS QUESTIONS
The move has raised questions about accessibility for riders who rely on park-and-ride facilities. Parking at transit stations is often used by: • Riders traveling from areas without frequent bus service • Commuters balancing long distances or limited options Charging for parking could: • Add a financial barrier for some riders • Increase demand for nearby street parking
• Encourage greater use of bus connections, biking, or drop-offs Sound Transit has attempted to address some of these concerns by maintaining free parking options and expanding carpool incentives.
A BROADER POLICY SHIFT
The introduction of paid parking permits reflects a broader change in how transit agencies manage limited parking resources. Rather than offering unlimited free parking, agencies are increasingly: • Prioritizing high-demand spaces • Charging for guaranteed access • Encouraging alternatives to driving Sound Transit has indicated that similar programs could expand to additional stations over time, depending on usage patterns.

WHAT RIDERS SHOULD WATCH
As the program rolls out, riders can expect: • Changes in permit availability • Adjustments to pricing • Potential expansion to additional stations For now, the system represents a transition from a fully free parking model to a mixed system balancing access, cost, and demand. For some riders, it offers convenience and predictability. For others, it marks a new cost in accessing transit. As light rail continues to expand, how riders get to the station may increasingly factor into the overall cost of commuting.

Staff Report
O
ne year after Pike Place Market began limiting most vehicle traffic during daytime hours, Seattle Streets Alliance says newly released Pike Place Market Preservation and Development Authority data shows increases in commercial sales and local visitation. The limited vehicle access pilot launched April 23, 2025, as a collaboration between the Pike Place Market PDA, the Mayor’s Office, Councilmember Bob Kettle, the Seattle Department
Seattle Streets Alliance also said sales were up in 15 of the Market’s 16 tracked locations. of Transportation and other city stakeholders. At the time, the Market said the pilot was intended to reduce congestion and improve safety while preserving essential street functions for businesses, residents and visitors. The pilot is not a full street closure. When it launched, the Market said vehicle entry at First Avenue and Pike Street would be limited to emergency and ADA access, commercial deliveries and pickups, business loading and unloading, and customer curbside pickup for advance orders. The pilot restricted nonessential traffic, including visitor pass-throughs and rideshares, while maintaining access needed for the Market’s daily operations.
The Market also described the effort as a “test and learn” approach, designed to help inform long-term planning for Pike Place without fully closing the street. The pilot began during a Seattle Public Utilities construction project and was also tied to broader efforts to improve walkability around the Market, including the opening of Overlook Walk between the waterfront and the Market. According to Seattle Streets Alliance, local and regional visitation increased by more than 127,000 visits in 2025 compared with 2024, a 5.6% increase. The group said the increase came during a period when overall downtown visitation trends were flat. Commercial sales also increased by more than $12 million, or 6.5%, year over year, according to Seattle Streets Alliance. The group said sales increased across the five main categories tracked by the PDA: entertainment, grocery, restaurants, retail and services. Seattle Streets Alliance also said sales were up in 15 of the Market’s 16 tracked locations. The only location that did not see an increase was Western Avenue, where the group said a storefront vacancy affected sales during the year. The pilot followed years of debate over whether Pike Place should continue allowing general vehicle traffic through one of the Market’s busiest pedestrian areas. Supporters have argued that fewer cars would improve safety and make the historic Market more welcoming for pedestrians. The Market has emphasized the need to preserve customer access, deliveries, loading, parking management and emergency access while reducing congestion.
JOSH HILD
Pike Place Market Pilot Reports Higher Sales, Visitation after First Year
Seattle Streets Alliance said the sales and visitation figures support making the limitedtraffic approach permanent. The organization also cited preliminary PDA data from January and February 2026, which it said showed sales up 11% compared with the same months in 2025, before the pilot began. “These results make something very clear: when Pike Place is prioritized for people rather than traffic, more people show up, and they stay longer and shop more,” said Joshua Holland, communications director for Seattle Streets Alliance. “What we’re seeing isn’t just a shift in traffic patterns, it’s a transformation in how the space feels. It’s safer, more welcoming, and ultimately better for the
businesses that make the Market what it is.” The organization is calling for the city and the Pike Place Market PDA to make the limited-traffic approach permanent after the summer, including through the use of more permanent street improvements such as retractable bollards. Holland said such improvements could help maintain safety while still allowing the essential functions of a working market. Gordon Padelford, executive director of Seattle Streets Alliance, said the first-year results support making the pilot permanent. “People are voting with their feet and their wallets: the pilot is working and they want to make it permanent,” Padelford said. “Pike Place is the most visited
destination in the state, and it can thrive as a working market without the main street being used for unnecessary vehicle parking.” The Pike Place Market PDA manages Market operations and serves as the primary landlord for Market tenants. The PDA collects sales data from tenants across the Market by month, location and business type. It also uses visitation data to measure foot traffic.
