eattle City Light is testing a new notification system designed to keep customers informed about unplanned power outages and restorations in real time. The pilot program introduces text and email alerts that notify customers when an outage occurs in their area and when power has been restored. During this initial phase, notifications will only be sent for smaller outages affecting a limited number of customers. Larger-scale outages, such as those caused by major storms, will be added once the system is fully implemented. Customers in underground network distribution areas, including downtown Seattle, First Hill, and the University District, are not included in the pilot. For those enrolled, outage alerts are typically delivered within five to ten minutes of a disruption, though response times may be longer during widespread events.

Restoration notices are sent as soon as power is back online. Participation in the program is automatic for customers who already have a mobile phone number or email address listed in their Utility Services account. The service itself is free, though standard text and data rates may apply. City Light encourages customers to log in to their Utility Services Website account to verify that their contact information is current and to select their preferred method of communication—text, email, or both. Updates to account information or notification preferences may take up to 24 hours to take effect. Customers can manage their alert settings through their online profile, where they can add or update contact details and choose how they receive notifications. Those who wish to remove contact information entirely must do so by calling customer service. City Light says the goal of the pilot is to

Important notes: • Changes may take up to 24 hours to take effect • To remove contact information entirely, call customer service • Alerts will come from (888) 442-7594 and no-reply@seattle.gov • The service is free, but standard text and data rates may apply Need help?

Low-Cost Smartphone Plans for Budget-Minded Seniors By Jim Miller

Dear Savvy Senior, What are the absolute lowest-cost smartphone plans for seniors who mainly talk and text but need a little cellular data for email and occasional use? I’m currently paying $40 a month and hoping to cut that down. —Looking to Save

Dear Looking, ou’re asking a smart question. Many seniors pay far more for smartphone service than they actually use. If most of your phone activity is calls, texts, email, and light web browsing, there’s usually no need to spend $40 or more a month. The good news: plenty of low-cost carriers now cater to light users who want reliable service without the extra cost.

Here are the best options available now The cheapest plans today mostly come from mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) – smaller carriers that lease coverage from major networks like T Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T. Because they don’t run their own towers, MVNOs can offer basic service for a fraction of the cost of major carriers, while still providing nationwide coverage. Here are some of the best options available now. CHEAPEST WIRELESS PLANS According to Consumer Reports, Mint Mobile is a top value among low-cost smartphone plans. For $15 per month, you get unlimited talk and text plus 5 gigabytes (GB) of data. The catch: you pay for a full year upfront – $180 plus taxes – but for seniors comfortable paying annually, it’s a smart way to lock in savings. Mint runs on T-Mobile’s network and works with most unlocked phones. If you want a similar plan without the upfront commitment, T-Mobile Connect is worth a look. For about $15 per month, you get the same 5 GB of data and unlimited talk and text, with no contract and the flexibility to switch plans month to month. It’s an easy, low-commitment option on the same reliable T-Mobile network.

For seniors who barely use their phone, Ultra Mobile’s PayGo plan is the absolute cheapest option right now. At just $3 per month plus fees, it includes 100 minutes, 100 texts, and 100 MB of data, with extra usage costing only a few cents per minute, text, or MB. It’s ideal for anyone who mainly needs a phone for emergencies, and it also runs on T-Mobile’s reliable network. Tello is another flexible option, with plans starting at $8 per month for 300 minutes, unlimited texts, and 2 GB of data. You can easily add more minutes or data in small, inexpensive increments, making it ideal for seniors who want control over their costs. Finally, US Mobile offers a plan starting at $10 per month (paid annually) for unlimited talk and text plus 4 GB of data. Simple, affordable, and straightforward, it’s a solid choice for seniors who want coverage without extra bells and whistles. LIFELINE PROGRAM If your budget is especially tight, be sure to check into the federal Lifeline Assistance Program. Lifeline provides a $9.25 monthly discount on phone or internet service. You may qualify if you receive benefits such as Medicaid, SNAP (food stamps), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), public housing assistance, or Veterans Pension. You may also qualify based on income alone if your household income is below 135 percent of the federal poverty level – currently $21,546 for one person or $29,214 for two. To learn more or apply, visit lifelinesupport. org. If approved, you can choose from participating providers in your area, and in some cases even apply the discount to service you already have, if your provider participates. Before switching plans, make sure your phone is unlocked and compatible with the new carrier’s network. A quick compatibility check on the provider’s website can help ensure a smooth transition and keep your savings on track.

Send your questions or comments to questions@savvysenior.org, or to Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070.

Mayor Seeks Public Support to Crack Down on “Rental Junk Fees” Staff Report

eattle Mayor Katie Wilson is ramping up efforts to address so-called “rental junk fees,” launching a series of town halls and a public sign-up campaign aimed at building support for new tenant protections. The initiative focuses on fees charged by landlords that are not always clearly disclosed in advertised rent prices. These can include charges for applications, administrative processing, utilities, or services that tenants say can significantly increase the true cost of housing. According to the mayor’s office, thousands of renters have already weighed in, with affordability cited as a top concern. In survey results shared

by the city, more than half of respondents reported paying additional fees on top of rent, and many said those costs were not clearly explained upfront. The outreach effort is designed to gather additional feedback and demonstrate public interest as the city considers potential legislation. Residents are being encouraged to sign up for updates and attend upcoming town halls, where they can share experiences and learn more about possible policy changes. The push reflects a broader movement in Seattle to regulate rental practices and improve transparency in the housing market. In recent years, city leaders have taken steps to limit certain charges, including banning “notice delivery fees” and

capping some late fees, as part of ongoing efforts to reduce housing costs. Advocates argue that junk fees can make already high rents even more burdensome, particularly in a city where renters make up a majority of households. Efforts to eliminate or regulate these charges have been a growing focus of local housing policy, alongside measures addressing rentsetting practices and tenant protections. At the same time, the proposal is likely to draw scrutiny from landlords and property managers, who often argue that such fees cover real operational costs and that additional regulation could have unintended impacts on housing supply or pricing.

For now, the mayor’s office is focused on gathering input. The sign-up campaign serves both as a way to inform renters and as a tool to gauge support ahead of any formal policy proposal. Residents interested in participating can sign up for updates and town hall information through the city’s online form, or scan the code.

Seattle Cherry Blossom & Japanese Cultural Festival is part of Seattle Center Festál, a year-round series of 25 free cultural festivals which embrace the region’s diversity and cultivate a deeper understanding of the cultures which contribute to the vibrancy of Seattle and the Pacific Northwest.

Volunteers Needed for Seattle/ King County Clinic

ENGSTROM, FROM 1 During his time as Director of the Office of Arts & Culture, we saw his ability to navigate policy and community with care and purpose, and I was honored to work alongside him as a co-lead on the Mayor’s transition team. I can’t think of a better choice for the city than to have him at the helm of this storied institution.” – Benjamin Hunter, Musician; Creative/Cultural Agent; Artistic Director, NW Folklife

Staff Report

SEATTLE CENTER

s the annual Seattle/King County Clinic approaches, organizers are calling on healthcare professionals and community members to step forward and fill critical volunteer roles. The four -day clinic, scheduled for April 23–26, 2026, provides free dental, vision, and medical care to thousands of people who struggle to access or afford healthcare. Entirely volunteer -driven, the clinic relies on thousands of volunteers each year to operate. This year, the need is especially urgent across a range of specialties. Dental professionals - including dentists, hygienists, oral surgeons, and lab technicians - are needed throughout the event, with particularly high demand on Thursday and Sunday. Medical volunteers such as dermatologists, podiatrists, radiologists, occupational therapists, and sonographers are also being sought, along with pharmacists and X -ray technicians. Vision care remains another key area, with optometrists needed all days and ophthalmologists especially needed Friday through Sunday. In addition to clinical roles, the clinic is actively recruiting general support volunteers, including interpreters, social workers, and health insurance

navigators - positions that are essential to ensuring patients can access care and follow -up resources. Organizers emphasize that not all volunteer roles require medical training. Many positions focus on patient support, logistics, and coordination, making the clinic accessible to a wide range of volunteers. The clinic serves thousands of patients each year, offering care with no requirement for insurance, identification, or proof of income. For many, it is one of the few opportunities to receive essential services such as dental treatment, vision exams, or basic medical care.

Volunteers must register in advance through the clinic’s online system, where they can create an account, select roles, and manage their schedules. Licensed healthcare professionals must be credentialed in the United States to participate in clinical roles. With some roles already filling quickly, organizers encourage interested volunteers to sign up as soon as possible or join waitlists as needed. Even a single shift can make a meaningful difference. Those interested in volunteering or learning more can visit volunteers.seattlecenter.org.

Visitors will also have the rare opportunity to learn directly from wartists traveling from Okinawa, Japan. Members of the Asato family from Asato Bingata Studio will lead handson workshops demonstrating bingata, a traditional Okinawan textile dyeing technique known for its vibrant colors and intricate patterns. Participants can create and take home their own dyed items such as small bags or coasters. In addition to performances and workshops, attendees can explore booths from cultural organizations, community groups, artists, and local businesses including the Seattle Go Center, Hyogo Business & Cultural Center, Haiku Northwest, the Kubota Garden Foundation, the Seattle Flying Dragon Boat Club, Seattle Abacus School, Sakura Sweets, and many more. “Over the past 50 years, the Seattle Cherry Blossom & Japanese Cultural Festival has played a critical role in shaping the legacy of friendship between the Seattle area and Japan,” said Karen Yoshitomi, Seattle Cherry Blossom & Japanese Cultural Festival committee chair. “Now more than ever, the festival is about celebrating the art and culture of Japan and fostering positive relationships among all people who have an affinity for Japanese culture. The festival will include more than 35 exhibitors and 25 performances and hands-on activities, as well as an exhibit with over 100 art pieces from more than 20 local artists, so there will be something for everyone to enjoy.”

Pharmaceutical Giants Sue WA Over New Drug Pricing Law By Jake Goldstein-Street Washington State Standard

he contentious legislation deals with a federal program that gives discounted medications to safety-net health care providers. Drug companies say they stand to lose millions of dollars a year. The lawsuits came the same day Gov. Bob Ferguson signed Senate Bill 5981. The law passed the Senate along party lines with Democrats in support, and with some Republican votes in the House. It takes effect in June. Hospitals and pharmaceutical companies are at odds over the legislation, making it one of the most hotly contested bills of the 2026 legislative session. The law seeks to add transparency to the federal 340B drug pricing program and to stop drug manufacturers from restricting who can dispense their medication. While obscure to many outside of the health care arena, billions of dollars worth of pharmaceutical drugs flow to patients under the federal 340B program each year, and the way it is set up helps to bolster the finances of some hospitals. Established in 1992, the program requires drug manufacturers to give certain safety-net providers, like those in rural areas or those that disproportionately serve low-income patients, hefty discounts on outpatient drugs. Those providers can then bill insurers for the prescriptions at higher market rates. The idea is to help these hospitals and clinics to generate revenue so they can expand their care for low-income and uninsured patients. At the Moses Lake Community Health Center, for example, the program helps cover

the cost of care for patients with chronic diseases and supports mental health services, the center’s CEO wrote in a letter to the governor last week, urging him to sign the bill. SPARRING OVER THE PROGRAM DATES BACK YEARS Advocates say preserving the 340B program is now more important as hospitals and clinics prepare for deep cuts to Medicaid included in the “big, beautiful bill” Republicans in Congress passed last year. Many providers contract with outside pharmacies to distribute medicine to patients, since they don’t have in-house pharmacies. This aspect of the 340B program has grown rapidly in recent years. And after the passage of the Affordable Care Act in 2010, many more providers qualified to participate in 340B. In 2024, these hospitals and clinics bought $81.4 billion in outpatient drugs under the federal program, up from $44 billion just three years earlier. Manufacturers have long argued that hospitals and pharmacies are using 340B revenue to pad their profits instead of passing on savings to patients, and that they’re stretching the bounds of the program to maximize those profits. They’ve tried to restrict the practice of using pharmacies under contract to distribute their drugs, as they see pharmacies as key to abusing the program. In recent years, numerous states have passed laws to prohibit drug manufacturers from limiting the use of contract pharmacies in the 340B program. This is what Washington’s new law aims to do. The attorney general could enforce violations of the law, and hospitals and clinics

could bring litigation themselves, as well. It also wouldn’t allow manufacturers to require providers or pharmacies to provide data as a condition for acquiring their medication. Companies could use that data to see if pharmacies are diverting drugs away from the patients they were meant for, or if entities are getting duplicate discounts through 340B and Medicaid. Both the companies and providers need to submit data to the state, though. “This will allow the state to have more insight into improving the program to ensure it supports providers while, most importantly, protecting consumers,” Ferguson said as he signed the legislation. DRUG COMPANIES SAY THEY’LL LOSE MILLIONS AbbVie claims the law will cost it “tens of millions of dollars in unrecoverable discounts.” The company’s lawsuit says its 340B discounts run around 60% of market value and bring some drug costs down to just pennies. Novartis similarly says the law will result in “unrecoverable financial harms.” “If Novartis is forced to comply with the law, it will lose millions of dollars annually by providing additional 340B discounts not required by federal law, as well as the administrative costs of compliance,” the company’s lawsuit reads. “If Novartis does not comply - or even if the State ever takes the position that Novartis has not fully complied - Novartis must expend significant resources defending itself or its employees, on top of financial penalties that may be imposed,” it adds. AbbVie argues the law has “cascading constitutional infirmities.” Novartis says it

“cannot coexist with federal law” as it goes against the goals of Congress in establishing the program. Federal appellate courts have upheld similar laws in Arkansas and Mississippi. The federal government has also told manufacturers that policies they’ve implemented to restrict pharmacies violate federal law. In the cases of AbbVie and Novartis, those policies were to only allow providers to use third-party pharmacies within 40 miles of them. Several pharmaceutical companies, including Novartis, responded with lawsuits. Federal appellate courts have sided with the manufacturers in those cases. After signing the legislation this week, Ferguson, a Democrat, said he understood pharmaceutical companies may want to explore litigation against Washington. “We do a careful job of reviewing everything about bills before I sign them, the policy side, but also the legal side,” he told reporters. “We have conversations with legal folks to make sure that what we’re signing, that we feel comfortable and confident we can defend it. And this is no different.” A spokesperson for Attorney General Nick Brown said Thursday his office was reviewing the filings. The state hasn’t formally responded in court to the lawsuits. Both companies are seeking an initial court order temporarily blocking the law while the litigation is pending. Neither has been set for a court hearing. AbbVie is perhaps best known for manufacturing Humira and Skyrizi to treat autoimmune diseases. Novartis makes Entresto to treat heart failure and Cosentyx for psoriasis.

CE6383, and State of Washington Certificate of Title No. 1855282416 (the “Mobile Home”), because you broke promises in our agreement. 1) Method of Sale - Old Second National Bank will sell the Mobile Home at public sale. A sale could include a lease or license. The sale will be held as follows: Date: April 17, 2026 Time: 10:00 a.m. Location: Main Entrance to the King County Administration Building 500 4th Ave. Seattle, WA 98104 The sale shall be conducted by an agent of my law firm, Eisenhower Carlson PLLC, on behalf of Old Second National Bank. The sale shall be subject to any and all (i) outstanding real estate and personal property taxes on the Mobile Home, (ii) conveyance taxes, and (iii) senior liens and the Internal Revenue Service’s right to redemption, if any. Payment from any bidder other than Old Second National Bank will be accepted only in the form of cash, bank cashier’s check, certified check, or some combination thereof. In the event that Old Second National Bank is the successful bidder, it may bid the amount owing under the obligation secured by the Mobile Home without the payment of funds to the seller.

If Old Second National Bank gets more money than you owe, you will get the extra money, unless we must pay it to someone else. 3) You can get the property back at any time before we sell it by paying us the full

amount you owe, not just the past due payments, including our expenses.
