Public Safety Update

Here is a quick update from the Public Safety committee, which has been a slow-moving process so far. We're continuing discussions with the city about installing “Your Speed is XX” signs along Lakeside and are looking into alternative funding options. We hope to have more details by the end of October. We’ve also begun exploring the possibility of adding crossing lights at Leschi Place & Lakeside and Lake Washington Blvd & Lakeside for added safety.


Regarding the Lake Washington Boulevard project between Seward Park and Mount Baker, while it doesn’t directly affect our area, it should help reduce traffic speeds along the lake. You can see the latest news by following this link.


Beyond traffic, we’ll also focus on emergency preparedness and neighborhood safety. I've been reaching out to nearby communities to learn from their programs, and we'll share more updates as we gather information. More to come soon!
