Mayor Wilson We’re Not Saying the Sonics Are Back… Pauses Expansion But We’re Also Not Not Saying It of Surveillance Pilot, Orders Audit Ahead of S World Cup Staff Report

eattle is having one of those rare moments where everything seems to be lining up at once. This week, Kraken owner Samantha Holloway announced the launch of One Roof Sports and Entertainment, a new umbrella organization bringing together the Seattle Kraken, Climate Pledge Arena, Kraken Community Iceplex, One Roof Foundation, and the redevelopment of Memorial Stadium at Seattle Center-along with broader investments in regional sports. Holloway framed the launch as a long-term investment in both competition and community. “We’re committed to this community,” she said. “This parent brand brings together everything we’ve built and positions us for what comes next.” That “what’s next” could be historic. On paper, it’s a structural move. In Seattle, it reads differently. It feels like preparation. Because hovering over all of this is the question that never really left: What if the Sonics actually come back? For anyone new to Seattle-or anyone who’s only experienced the city without an NBA teamthe SuperSonics were once a defining part of the city. They left in 2008, and the aftermath has lingered somewhere between heartbreak and unfinished business ever since. Now, for the first time in a long time, the conversation is shifting. The NBA is expected to vote this week on formally beginning an expansion process focused on Seattle and Las Vegas, with

eattle Mayor Katie B. Wilson announced Thursday that the city will pause expansion of its surveillance camera pilot program while moving forward with a comprehensive review of privacy and data policies, a decision that carries implications for neighborhoods across the city. The program, known as the Real Time Crime Center (RTCC), launched in April 2025 with 62 police-operated cameras installed in downtown, along Aurora Avenue, and in the Chinatown International District. The initiative was approved as a pilot, with the understanding that it would be evaluated before any long-term expansion. However, late last year, the previous administration approved plans to expand the program into additional areas, including the Central District near Garfield High School, Capitol Hill’s nightlife district, and the Stadium District. According to Wilson, that expansion has not yet been implemented, as the cameras have not been installed or activated. “Before we expand a program like this, we need to understand how it’s working and what impact it’s having,” Wilson said in prepared remarks.

“Under Wilson’s plan, the city will halt further expansion until a full privacy and data governance audit is completed.”

ready to support something bigger. Holloway framed it as a longterm commitment to the region: bringing everything under one roof “positions us for future opportunities.” Around here, nobody needs that translated. None of this guarantees the Sonics’ return. Seattle fans know better than to celebrate a process before it becomes reality. But for once, this isn’t just nostalgia or rumor-it’s movement. And if you’ve lived here long enough, you know the appropriate response isn’t

overconfidence. It’s cautious optimism, with just a little emotional armor. Still… you can feel it. So no, the Sonics aren’t back. Not yet. But if this all works out? Seattle gets something it never really stopped wanting. And if it doesn’t… well, this city is famously calm, rational, and completely normal about the Sonics. Obviously. We’ll know a lot more next week, once the NBA’s vote gives Seattle its clearest signal yet on what comes next.

Under Wilson’s plan, the city will halt further expansion until a full privacy and data governance audit is completed. Existing RTCC cameras will remain operational in their current locations. The decision comes amid ongoing debate about the role of surveillance technology in public safety. While some residents see cameras as a valuable tool to deter crime and assist investigations, others have raised concerns about privacy, over-surveillance, and the potential misuse of data. Wilson acknowledged those competing perspectives, emphasizing the need for a more deliberate approach. “For some people, cameras make them feel safer. For others, they have the opposite effect,” she said. “That’s why it’s important that we ground our decisions in a clear understanding of both the benefits and the risks.” As part of the pause, Wilson outlined several targeted actions. Cameras slated for installation in the Stadium District ahead of the FIFA World Cup will still be installed but will remain inactive unless a credible threat arises. They would be turned off once that threat subsides. In addition, Wilson announced that one existing camera with a view of a facility providing reproductive and genderaffirming care will be turned off while the

a potential target of launching new teams by the 2028–29 season. It’s an early step-but notably, a real one. And the momentum isn’t just coming from the league. Gov. Bob Ferguson, who has called himself a “die-hard Sonics fan,” is set to meet with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver ahead of the vote and made it clear the state is ready to help. “I feel I have a pretty good appreciation for the loss that our community experienced,” Ferguson said-putting words to something many Seattleites have felt for years. “Obviously, if this is to happen, there will be a role for the state in some capacity to be helpful,” Ferguson continued. “What I’ve tried to emphasize with him and others is that the state stands ready to be helpful, that this is a priority for me.” This push has also been building behind the scenes. Back in a June 2024 Interview, (now former) Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell said “We know (NBA Commissioner) Adam Silver’s talked a little about the process that it will entail. It’s much like how we competed for the FIFA games. “I am actively not only creating the buzz, but looking at how we build the infrastructure here in Seattle. Let’s signal to the NBA: you have to be here. You’re missing this great market and I feel very good about what’s going to happen here in the near future.” The city needed to show both the fan energy and the infrastructure to support a team. That’s what makes this moment feel different. The arena is done. The ownership group is established. The city leadership is aligned. And now, with One Roof Sports and Entertainment, there’s a structure that looks

Savvy Senior: What Causes Dizziness and How to Fix It By Jim Miller

Dear Savvy Senior, What can cause dizziness in older adults? I have dizzy spells from time to time but I’m not sure what causes it or what I should do about it. —Dizzy Donna

Dear Donna, hether it’s a moment of lightheadedness or the room-whirling sensation of vertigo, dizziness can be very unsettling. As many as 30 percent of people older than 60 experience dizziness at some point, about 50 percent after age 85. This unpleasant sensation only rarely signifies a serious medical condition. But it can knock you off balance, leading to falls and injuries. That’s why anytime you feel dizzy, you should lower yourself to a safe, seated position. Here’s a brief rundown of what typically causes dizziness and what you can do to fix it. WHAT CAUSES DIZZINESS One of the most common causes of dizziness and vertigo in older adults is benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). This occurs when tiny crystals in the inner ear, which play a role in balance, become dislodged. BPPV is more likely as we get older because wear and tear can cause the crystals to shift out of place. The resulting dizziness is generally triggered by changes in head position. People with BPPV often complain that the room spins when they roll over in bed, get into or out of bed, tip their head back, bend over, or make other quick head

movements. These episodes usually last only a minute or two, but they may happen intermittently over a period of time. A drop in blood pressure may also cause dizziness, even fainting, especially when changing position from sitting or lying down to standing. This so-called postural hypotension is often the result of problems with blood pressure medication. If this is something that occurs on a regular basis, you need to be evaluated by your doctor. Certain sedatives, antidepressants, cough and cold medicines, and antibiotics can lead to dizziness, too. Dehydration may be another culprit in postural hypotension. Staying hydrated is extremely important for balance, blood pressure, and general wellbeing. Declines in vision and hearing (including ear infections and impacted earwax) may also affect your balance. WHEN TO CALL A DOCTOR Occasional dizziness that lasts only for a few seconds is probably no cause for worry, but you should still let your doctor know. If it persists for several minutes or more or keeps happening, call your doctor right away.

SURVEILLANCE, FROM 1 city evaluates its safeguards. She also directed a temporary pause on the use of automatic license plate readers until the city can ensure compliance with new state regulations. The mayor emphasized that while the RTCC can be a useful tool for solving crimes, many of the program’s current protections rely on internal procedures rather than enforceable policy. The audit will focus on how surveillance data is stored, accessed, and shared, including concerns about data hosted on third-party platforms. Seattle has partnered with New York University’s Policing Project to conduct the privacy and data governance audit. A separate evaluation led by the Office of Inspector General, in partnership with the University of Pennsylvania, will examine the program’s impact on crime, policing operations, and community perception. Councilmember Bob Kettle, who represents District 7 - including Queen Anne and Magnolia - and chairs the City Council’s Public Safety Committee, expressed support for the review while urging timely completion. “I welcome the audit and policy review of the CCTV program,” Kettle said in a statement. “We must continually look for ways to improve this tool to ensure it functions as intended: strengthening public safety while safeguarding our vulnerable communities. However, it’s imperative this review moves quickly so it is completed well ahead of the FIFA World Cup, where Seattle will be front and center on the world stage.” While no cameras are currently planned for Queen Anne or Magnolia, the outcome of the audit and future policy decisions could shape how - or if - the program expands into additional neighborhoods.

Sudden dizziness or loss of balance, along with facial drooping, trouble speaking, nausea, and vision or hearing disturbances can signal a stroke. If this happens call 911. TREATMENT FOR DIZZINESS If your doctor thinks you have BPPV, they can teach you the Epley maneuver, where you turn your head and body in ways that move ear crystals back into place. For medication related dizziness, your doctor can change your medication or dosage to reduce the side effects. For persistent problems, your doctor can check for infections, balance disorders, and more serious issues, such as tumors, congestive heart failure, an irregular heart rhythm, and conditions like Parkinson’s disease. If none are found, your doctor may recommend vestibular rehab, which may help with dizziness, vertigo, and balance problems. Anxiety and depression can also cause dizziness in some people. Treating this may ease your lightheadedness. Send your questions or comments to questions@savvysenior.org, or to Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070.

Wilson framed her decision as part of a broader approach to governance, noting that expanding a pilot program before fully evaluating its outcomes is not best practice. The mayor also addressed concerns about potential data sharing with federal agencies, particularly in light of recent reports of information sharing by other government entities. She stated that if there were a surge in immigration enforcement similar to what has occurred in other cities, she would consider shutting down the camera system entirely to prevent misuse. Despite the pause on expansion, Wilson made clear that the RTCC will continue to operate and that surveillance technology will remain one component of the city’s broader public safety strategy. “These are complex, multidimensional challenges,” she said. “Cameras can be a useful tool, but they are not the only solution.” Wilson acknowledged that her decision is unlikely to fully satisfy either proponents or critics of the program. “I know some people will be upset that I’m not turning off all the cameras immediately, and others will be upset that I’m not moving faster to expand them,” she said. “But this is about taking the time to get the policy right.” The mayor also announced a public town hall scheduled for Friday (3/27) at Town Hall Seattle, where residents will have an opportunity to ask questions and provide input on the future of the program. As Seattle prepares to host matches during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the timeline for the audit - and any resulting policy changes - will likely play a significant role in shaping how the city balances public safety, privacy, and public trust in the years ahead.

CROSSWORD

MARCH 25, 2026

The Thing About Friendship . . .

ave you ever admired a painting so much that it inspires you to do something? Something you’ve put off for, say, a hundred years; knowing how long a century can be? I know a writer can romanticize certain events, but that’s how a painting at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art affected me, like I suddenly understood Mary Lou everything Sanelli there is to Falling understand, Awake and at this particular time in American history, understanding everything is not easy. The name of the painting, by Linda Okazake, is Letter to Frida. Three simple words. But they tell an intricate story. Frida (Frida Kahlo) and Linda (the artist) are connected by a red heartstring―visibly, not figuratively―and there is so much happening between them, and so many names for it: trust, faith, affection, courage. The beauty of it stunned me. And it’s funny because I nearly walked past the museum that day. I was running late starting the dinner I wanted to make for my friend, Trude. But when I reached the museum, I thought, I’ll just go in for a minute. That minute turned into an hour. And the stuffed pasta shells I’d wanted to make became a quiche I had time to make. I have a special fondness for the Orientation Gallery at B.I.M.A. where I read from one of my books during the pandemic when things loosened up a bit. It was a crazy time to launch anything, so I am beholden to the museum. For life. But my favorite space is upstairs where Letter to Frida hung. And that painting, those women! They pushed me with a

certainty that has, in the past, drove me to do things spontaneously and without remorse. . . though there have been exceptions. Once I realized I was staring at Frida and Linda, but I was looking for Lena and me, I sat right down and wrote my Letter to Lena. (Email, but still.) Lena was my college roommate. I’ve written before about Lena; how, after graduation, she went one way, I went another, and like a lot of us, I began to work around the clock, and a decade passed and a decade passed and here we are. We did meet up for a weekend once. And when I saw her, I got nervous. Nervous about all the time that has passed. Nervous about the restaurant she’d chosen that was clearly hipper than I am―extravagant, minimalist―seamless integration, I think they call it. Nervous that I would tell her everything, well, maybe not everything, yes everything, no, yes, just say it as a friend. Because I can do this when I’m nervous. Talk. And that’s what I did. I tried to say what I actually meant and thought and felt, and I still remember the rush I got from telling the honest-to-goddess truth about what was going on in my life. And when I asked about hers, she talked about her dog. And when I asked if she was still playing the piano, she talked about her dog. She talked a lot about her dog that night. The dog’s temperament. The dog’s need of an antidepressant. How much that dog liked to ride in the car and what that dog liked to eat. And because she said all this without smiling, my mind started to run ahead itself and, to my life-long regret, I said how maybe she should return to her music and not spend all her time pampering a dog. After that, it was a short conversation that felt very long. As I saw it, the dog was pretty much beside the point; it was that she no longer played music that mattered to me, because I have faith in the restorative power of art, any kind

of art, and that dog seemed a long way from art, which made it as good a topic as any to disagree about. I don’t blame her for breaking up with me. There are days I want to break up with me. I couldn’t bring myself to admit this to Lena, because I couldn’t bring myself to admit it to myself, yet, that I’d become someone who refuses to accept a dog as a next path in life, because it’s not the path I’d take. But I had. After reading my email, Lena agreed to meet again. Which is very Lena of her―she really is the nicest person on the planet. This time, I began as cautious as if driving over Steven’s Pass in freezing rain. And slowly we began to talk. Be ourselves. Laugh. Like roomies again! What a ridiculous word at our age. Roomies. But who cares. When people ask (and they do ask because I wrote a book about friendship) who my first

best friend was, I always say, “Lena.” We anchor ourselves by our friendships, and I’m a little rootless, so I need strong anchors. So in order to feel secure, secured, I needed to make Lena and me happen again; to reconnect our heartstring. Because the thing about friendship is that it’s never up to us if we will receive it, but it is up to us to extend it. Just before I left the gallery a woman came up the stairs. She inspected her hair in the window glass. Also, her backside. Which made me smile. And when she gave her panties a little a tug from behind, I saw her, she saw me, and we saw each other see each other. So I waved. Because for one whole second, I tried to pretend I wouldn’t do the same thing. Because I don’t think I could have stopped myself from waving even if I wanted to, and I didn’t. Because why not.

Hosted by AmPowering, this free (with required registration) event features music, dance, food, and vibrant color play using safe, organic powders. Attendees are encouraged to wear white and join in the fun-or simply enjoy the festivities from the sidelines.

Beyond the fun, the festival supports a meaningful cause: proceeds benefit the #FeedTheNeed program, which provides meals to thousands of unhoused neighbors each week.

INTERNATIONAL GEM & JEWELRY SHOW – ALL WEEKEND

For tenant-occupied property, the purchaser shall provide a tenant with written notice in accordance with RCW 61.24.060. XIII. NOTICE TO GUARANTORS. The guarantor may be liable for a deficiency judgment to the extent the sale price obtained at the trustee’s sale is less than the debt secured by the deed of trust. The guarantor has the same rights to reinstate the debt, cure the default, or repay the debt as is given to the grantor in order to avoid the trustee’s sale. The guarantor will have no right to redeem the property after the trustee’s sale. Subject to such longer periods as are provided in the Washington deed of trust act, chapter 61.24 RCW, any action brought to enforce a guaranty must be commenced within one year after the trustee’s sale, or the last trustee’s sale under any deed of trust granted to secure the same debt. In any action for a deficiency, the guarantor will have the right to establish the fair value of the property as of the date of the trustee’s sale, less prior liens and encumbrances, and to limit its liability for a deficiency to the difference between the debt and the greater of such fair value or the sale price paid at the trustee’s sale, plus interest and costs. The failure of the beneficiary to provide any guarantor the notice referred to in this section does not invalidate either the notices given to the borrower or the grantor, or the trustee’s sale.

40-year-old man is in custody after allegedly causing nearly $240,000 in damage to glass artwork at Chihuly Garden and Glass earlier this week, according to Seattle police and court records. The incident occurred Monday night at the Seattle Center attraction, where officers responded after reports of a man inside the museum actively damaging exhibits. Video obtained by KIRO 7 showed multiple police vehicles surrounding the building as the situation unfolded.

“Authorities estimate that approximately a dozen pieces were damaged, each valued at roughly $20,000.” According to police, the suspect not only destroyed artwork but also became violent when confronted by security staff. Investigators say he threw broken glass at employees and attempted to stab them before being taken into custody. The suspect, identified in court documents as Alexander Weis, was booked into jail on charges including assault, burglary, and malicious mischief. During a hearing Wednesday, a judge set bail at $100,000 and ordered that Weis have no contact with Chihuly Garden and Glass. The court also ordered that media outlets not show the suspect’s face.

At an earlier hearing Tuesday, a judge found probable cause to hold Weis in custody for first-degree burglary, second-degree assault, and firstdegree malicious mischief. Prosecutors are expected to make a formal charging decision later this week. Authorities estimate that approximately a dozen pieces were damaged, each valued at roughly $20,000. Museum officials confirmed that the damaged works have been removed and are expected to be replaced in the coming weeks. However, officials emphasized that the loss goes beyond monetary value. “It’s not just the dollar amount,” said Casey McNerthney, a spokesperson for the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. “It’s the time and the sentimental value of those items that can never exactly be replaced.” Chihuly Garden and Glass, located next to the Space Needle, is one of Seattle’s most recognizable cultural institutions. Known for its vibrant, large-scale glass installations by artist Dale Chihuly, the museum is marketed as a peaceful, immersive space where art and nature intersect. Visitors arriving the following day described shock at learning what had occurred. “It’s beautiful, the colors, the shapes, everything,” said Jessica Barrett, who was visiting from Florida. “That is sad to hear… if you just took a moment to acknowledge what incredible work is in this place, you might have rethought doing that.” Katherine Hernandez, visiting from Nevada, echoed that sentiment. “Honestly, it’s so alluring,” she said. “It’s so bright and beautiful. I love everything about it.”

The contrast between the museum’s intended atmosphere and the violence of the incident was not lost on visitors or officials. What is typically a serene environment was abruptly disrupted, raising concerns about both visitor safety and the protection of fragile, high-value artwork. Investigators have not said how the suspect was able to enter the museum. Officials with Chihuly Garden and Glass have declined to comment on whether any changes to security measures will be implemented following the incident. Despite the damage, most of the museum’s exhibits remain intact, and the facility has continued to welcome visitors. It is not yet clear how long repairs or replacements will take, particularly given the handcrafted nature of the glass pieces. For neighborhoods like Queen Anne and Magnolia, the museum is more than a tourist attraction. It is a key part of Seattle Center and a regular destination for local residents, school groups, and community events. With Seattle preparing to host matches during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Seattle Center is expected to see increased foot traffic and international attention. Incidents like this underscore the importance of maintaining both accessibility and security at major cultural sites. For now, investigators continue to review the case as it moves forward through the courts. While the financial loss is significant, officials and visitors alike note that the true impact lies in the destruction of artwork that cannot be easily replaced.

Seattle Public Utilities and Seattle City Light Selected for 2026 National Workforce Initiative

City Among Three Nationwide Chosen for the National League of Cities Municipal Workforce Learning Lab Submitted

eattle Public Utilities (SPU) and Seattle City Light (SCL) have been selected to participate in the National League of Cities (NLC) Municipal Workforce Learning Lab, a national initiative designed to help cities strengthen their municipal workforce and create pathways to public service careers. Seattle is one of only three cities nationwide selected for the program, which runs from February through September 2026. Led by NLC in partnership with the American Institutes for Research (AIR), the Learning Lab will provide Seattle with expert coaching, peer learning opportunities, and strategic support to address workforce challenges and develop innovative, scalable solutions. “Seattle’s utility workers power our city today and are building the green infrastructure we need for generations to come,” said Mayor Katie Wilson. “We need to invest in our municipal workforce to deliver reliable services, achieve our climate goals, and ensure equitable access to great careers for everyone. Seattle is honored to join this national cohort that will support our work to build an inclusive, resilient local workforce.” Participation in the Learning Lab supports Seattle’s commitment to building a resilient, inclusive workforce capable of

delivering essential services while advancing the city’s climate and equity goals. SPU and SCL workers play a critical role in powering Seattle’s future, from clean energy and electrification to sustainable water management. Both utilities face growing challenges in recruiting and retaining skilled workers. Through this initiative, Seattle aims to build on efforts to: • Strengthen recruitment and retention for high-demand, skilled trade positions. • Expand equitable pathways into municipal careers, particularly in green jobs and clean energy sectors. • Improve the employee experience and engagement. • Align workforce development strategies to meet evolving community needs. The effort builds on Seattle’s Citywide Workforce Development Strategy. Introduced in early 2025, the strategy aims to unify more than 60 programs across 14 departments into a coordinated system that connects residents to familywage careers in high-demand sectors. The City is addressing persistent hiring challenges in utilities, skilled trades, and green jobs. These roles are essential for infrastructure modernization and climate goals that offer higher than average wages that do not require a four-year degree.

Seattle’s 2026 priorities include expanding youth career exposure programs, aligning training systems with employer needs, integrating vocational English for Speakers of Other Languages and job-readiness supports, and partnering with regional organizations such as the Workforce Development Council and Seattle Colleges to expand apprenticeships and sector-based training. These efforts aim to invest in data infrastructure, strengthen training-to-placement pipelines and ensure local talent can access these careers while employers gain the skilled workforce needed to support critical infrastructure and climate initiatives. The Municipal Workforce Learning Lab will culminate in a detailed city action plan and a national convening in Washington, D.C., where participating cities will share lessons learned and best practices. The other municipalities selected for the 2026 program are Little Rock, Arkansas, and Mt. Vernon, Ohio.

“We’re excited to be selected for the National League of Cities cohort for this year.

Citywide aligned workforce programs are essential not only for sparking interest in diverse career possibilities, and we look forward to learning from NLC and the other participating cities.” – Alicia Teel, Interim Director for Seattle Office of Economic Development. “Seattle is committed to creating clear and equitable pathways into public service careers that support our city’s infrastructure, climate goals, and economic opportunity for residents. Through initiatives like the Municipal Workforce Learning Lab, the City’s Priority Hire program, and our broader workforce strategy, we’re strengthening coordination across departments, expanding skills-based career pathways, and ensuring more Seattle residents can access stable, family-wage jobs.” – Kiersten Grove, Director of the Department of Finance and Administrative Services, which manages the City’s Priority Hire program and prioritizes the hiring of residents living in economically distressed zip codes on City public works projects over $5 million.
