Groups
Highline Forum: a quarterly meeting of electeds organized by the Port of Seattle. It includes electeds from the six airport adjacent cities, Highline Schools and state and congressional assistants. You can attend virtually and they accept public comment. This is probably the single most effective way to get these shared messages out to all regional governments. However, be warned: they operate in something of an information bubble – provided by the Port. They may hear complaints from residents but almost never new information to broaden their perspectives.
StART: the Sea-Tac Stakeholder Advisory Roundtable is a quarterly meeting of community members and administrators (not electeds) from these same cities. The Port runs these meetings, however commissioners do not attend and generally do not watch the meetings. You can attend virtually and they do take public comment. Frankly StART members operate in the same information bubble as people at the Highline Forum. Since they have such a steady diet of Port-propaganda you may be the first person to suggest that their may be other possibilities. Don’t give up.
