Seattle Mayor Unveils Two Executive Orders to Speed Shelter and Transit
Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson announced two executive orders aimed at accelerating shelter and housing options for people experiencing homelessness and improving bus reliability along Denny Way. The shelter-focused order directs city departments to identify barriers and fast-track expansion, prioritizing city-owned land and coordination with regional partners, while the transit-focused order tasks SDOT with delivering a detailed plan and timeline for at least one transit-priority improvement on Denny Way by April 17. More housing and transit actions are expected in coming months.
