Tuesday morning, the Civil Rights, Utilities, Economic Development and Arts Committee meets.  There’s bad news and good news: The bad news is a briefing on the draft 5-year business plan for Seattle Public Utilities, and rates are going up more than they thought they would need to raise them.  The good news is briefings on two cool programs:  Josephine, and the Delridge Neighborhoods Development Association.

  • a report on Seattle City Light’s Race and Social Justice Initiative;
