I'm calling this another win for the former D2 Crew! Congrats to @devinsilvernail.bsky.social who supported my office in passing the Just Cause Eviction ordinance a few years ago. First Social Housing, then LWB, now this. Gratifying to know we made a material difference for Seattle.

Rainier Beach Skatepark is nearing completion of Phase 1 to provide youth and families with a dedicated place to enjoy wheeled activities!
To complete the planned community art elements, we need to raise $80,000. Will you donate today and help us make this vision a reality?
I just donated again via the Seattle Parks Foundation website. It's EASY PEASY to help fund the mural being contemplated!
If Manhattan can do it, Seattle can do it!
