A former Councilmember who said it was her job to "lead to leave"... is coming back for an open position in Seattle's District 5! Learn about this and more of the latest in local public affairs in about the time it takes for a coffee break! Brian Callanan of Seattle Channel and David Kroman of the Seattle Times discuss the Council vacancy, an impending deadline for a new, controversial city business tax proposal, a delay for the City's plan to build housing and a "maker's space" in SODO, a court fight over a local nude beach, and the launch of a new police surveillance system.
