Time to float action, decision
Editor, The Times:
I was born at Ballard General Hospital 48 years ago and have lived in the Greater Seattle area all my life. One of things I love about our community is our style of discussion and civil debate. We all have input and we all have a chance to be heard.
Now that very thing I love could also make me crazy.
Mayor Mike McGinn has come to the planning of the 520 bridge replacement a little too late. [“Slam brakes on design of 520, McGinn urges,” page one, April 7.]
This topic has been discussed ad nauseam … There have been debates, votes and studies over the course of years. In the true Seattle spirit, we are trying to get everyone on board, but the truth is that not everyone will ever agree on any particular plan.
There are certainly things about the bridge replacement that I am not happy about. However, enough money has been spent, enough studies have been done and the time has come for action.
