UCC News
- The current UCC News takes a detailed look at support for Tent
Village. Here are a few excerpts:
"Lake City Christian Church overwhelmingly supported the proposal
to provide hospitality to the homeless community known as Tent
Village ... for a six week period, with Tent Village moving on at
the end of June.
"Tent Village residents are part of the more than 2,500 people
who sleep outside in Seattle after EVERY indoor shelter bed is
full.
"Share/Wheel operates 9 other shelters in the Seattle area - all
the others are indoors in churches. It costs $40,000 a year to run
Tent City."
"Contributions can be mailed to SHARE/WHEEL, P.O. Box 2548,
Seattle, WA 98111."
"Every Sunday Night UCC welcomes Teen Shelter and Teen Feed to our lower
lounge."

Crisis Resource Directory
- The Peace Heathens' street-level guide.
- "In the last 10 weeks, we've completely fact-checked our Crisis Resource
Directory (also reachable at
http://www.seattlecrisis.org),
which we believe is a singularly valuable resource for people in Seattle. It
covers topics ranging from 12-step groups to minor home repair, from sexual
minority resources to free haircuts for the homeless. This is an entirely
volunteer effort. We plan to have a pamphlet version of this out some time
this spring (this will be our fifth edition: we've distributed over 21,000
such pamphlets in the past), but the web site is far more comprehensive than
what we can fit on 40 paper pages." - Joe Mabel

Seattle Residents for Fair School Lighting
- (This didn't get listed on our menus when it started last year.)
- "If approved, instead of 35-foot sports lights, 100-foot tall lights
will become the legally allowed use on any school athletic field
anywhere in the city. ... This is a dramatic change in the Zoning
Code that will render current residential zoning meaningless. ... This
proposed change is part of the Joint Use Agreement between Seattle Schools
and Seattle Parks to develop School fields and rent them to Parks until
10:30 each night for use by sports leagues, co-recreational teams, and
others. Many of the currently proposed field upgrades include public address
(PA) loud-speaker systems."
