跟进:Seattle 市议会维持市长对房车许可法案的否决,市长已签署立法包其余四项

位于华盛顿州金县的 Seattle 市长 Katie Wilson 11月12日发表声明,感谢市议会就房车立法作出决定,市长此前对法案 CB 121283 的否决获得市议会维持。Wilson 说,市长行使否决权本就不常见,否决被议会维持更为少见,议会作出了明智的选择。本篇为本事件跟进稿。
Wilson 说,CB 121283 若实施,将设立一套复杂且成本高昂的许可计划,使 Seattle 面临法律风险,也不能真正解决房车对社区的影响。
就后续路径,Wilson 说,市府将增开更多安全停车场,按姓名册逐人开展个体化外展,并打击犯罪活动,由此形成一条清晰路径:让更多弱势人群进入庇护所,同时处理带来扰动的房车问题。
Wilson 说,她已签署市议会送交的房车相关立法包中的其余四项法案。她感谢全体市议员对本市面临议题的审慎考虑,无论他们如何投票,并呼吁各方携手向前。

Follow-Up: Seattle Council Sustains Mayor's Veto of RV Permitting Bill; Mayor Signs Other Four Bills in Package
Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson, in King County, Washington, issued a statement on November 12 thanking the City Council for its decision on RV legislation, after the council sustained her veto of bill CB 121283. Wilson said it is not often that a mayor exercises veto power, and rarer still for that veto to be sustained by the council, and that the council made a wise choice. This is a follow-up report on the same event.
Wilson said CB 121283 would have created a complex and costly permitting program, would have exposed Seattle to legal risk, and would not have successfully addressed the neighborhood impacts of RVs.
On the path forward, Wilson said that by opening additional safe lots, engaging in by-name individualized outreach, and cracking down on criminal activity, the city has a clear path to place more vulnerable people into shelter while dealing with disruptive RVs.
Wilson said she has signed the other four bills in the package of RV-related legislation sent to her by the council. She thanked all council members for the care and consideration they gave to the issues facing the city, regardless of how they voted, and called for moving forward together.
