Interesting post on The Interurban Canopy blog about the City of Bothell donating a large parcel of land in the heart of the active development area of downtown west of Bothell Way, between Pop Keeney Stadium and the King County Library, to Bothell United Methodist Church. The church will work with BRIDGE Housing to build “hundreds of affordable rental units” in addition to public spaces and some food/beverage retail, which will contribute to goals outlined Bothell’s new Comprehensive Plan that call for ~10K affordable housing units over the next two decades.

An article from the Seattle Times Traffic Lab project highlights Sound Transit's CEO declaring "the existence of an Emergency" (not quite a "State of Emergency", which I presume has particular consequences) seeking urgent no bid engineering work for $1.5M to address issues causing delays in the Light Rail system. This appears to be a stopgap before an forthcoming ask for substantially more resources to address a myriad of identified issues across the system... including one with a software issue at the Spring Street station on the brand new 2 Line in Bellevue.
