Mayor Gill’s blunt Seattle financial defense and policy bids

Seattle mayor delivers a combative annual message defending finances as among the best for a city of its size while outlining policy requests. He urges extending rail to Rainier Valley or Ballard, preserving the Lake Burien line, issuing bonds for a Cedar river wall, acquiring Swan Lake, repealing liquor laws under enforcement, and expanding public works and police capacity. He condemns transfer of funds and urges halting Division A unless rights are secured, noting losses from running it and the need for bridges before expansion.
