Seattle Politics and Urbanism Daily is your daily read on Seattle civic reform — coverage of City Hall, the City Council, Sound Transit and Link light rail, Seattle Public Schools, and SPD from a build-more-housing, accountability-first frame. Episodes track the mayor and the Council on housing abundance, the encampment and homelessness response, Sound Transit expansion, downtown and Capitol Hill recovery, permit reform that affects small-business owners, and SPD staffing and prosecutorial calls shaping public safety. We dig into council votes, Seattle Public Schools board decisions, and King County moves that don't otherwise make the daily news cycle. For Seattleites following Seattle politics, Link light rail, SPD, public safety, schools, and urbanism, the show is short, evidence-led, and unapologetic about preferring outcomes over ideology.
