Why this is a win for Washington State Legislature
government
The Win
The WSCC is a state Public Facilities District — any change to its structure
may require legislative authorization. But the legislature also has an interest
in seeing state-created entities remain solvent. A proactive restructuring now
is far easier to authorize than an emergency intervention later. Seattle
legislators in particular represent constituents who would directly benefit
from a year-round civic commons.
