Mayor Durkan announced a plan for Fort Lawton.   From KING-5:

Mayor Jenny Durkan transmitted legislation to City Council Wednesday that would turn 34 acres of the former military site into mixed-income housing, parks, and recreational space.

CM Sally Bagshaw said this (at the Mayor's announcement page):

"We have struck a deal with Seattle Public Schools to preserve land for their sports purposes too. Let’s stop debating and start building!” 

Parks and Park Related:   

Passive recreation		13 acres
Active recreation with opportunity for acquisition by Seattle Public Schools		6 acres
Forest land incorporated into Discovery Park		4-5 acres

Several bills are coming out of the end of this legislative session of interest to parents:

-Ending Daylight Savings Time   Congress would have to sign off on this one.

- Making the MMR vaccine mandatory.   From the Seattle Times:

The Washington state Senate late Wednesday voted to remove parents’ ability to exempt their children from a vaccination for personal or philosophical reasons. But the stricter rules would apply only to one vaccine – the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccination.

Parents would continue to be able to have their children opt out of other required school vaccinations, citing personal or philosophical exemptions. Religious exemptions will still be allowed for all vaccinations, including MMR.

For many years, only two states — West Virginia and Mississippi — required vaccines for all children, with no personal or religious exemptions allowed. In 2015, California passed legislation becoming the third state to eliminate both personal and religious exemptions for vaccine requirements.

The vote in Washington comes as measles cases in the U.S. are on pace to set a record for the most instances in 25 years. The disease was considered eliminated in 2000.
