[Oct. 17 Seattle] route

[Anton Black]

On the map you see a little jog to the left (west) off of Broadway.
This is west on Alder to Terry,  south on Terry till it runs into Broadway again, south to Yessler. This brings us through some residential areas.

Alex, Anton, Edwd and I walked variations of the proposed route tonight.

We concluded that SCCC via 12th or Broadway to Jackson, to First, and  
up Pine to Westlake is too far.
We will have less people participating in the march if it is clearly  
too long.  People would likely decide to be there at the beginning  
and/or the end and the actual number marching would be lower than we  
want, possibly lower than we need to go into the street.

We can of course discuss this further, but this was the general  
consensus amongst of the four of us.

Here are proposed routes.  (Folks will argue pro and con in  
subsequent emails.)





This route is 2.5 mi





This route is 3.0 mi.





This route is 2.6 mi.  When we were walking, we had kind of  
eliminated going on 12th.  On driving home, A and I drove on Bway  
from QFC to Boren, and that .5 miles is really not very good, so I  
just wanted to include this option also, although maybe I am the only  
one who likes it.

I was also tasked with looking into the permit issue.
This appears to be the website for Seattle street permits:    http:// 
www.seattle.gov/transportation/stuse_special.htm.

I suppose our event is a "special event" per the bottom of the page,  
and because we want street closure we have to go through this process.
Also, it appears that the October 22 Coalition won a lawsuit against  
the city  2 yrs ago when the cops would not let them march in the  
street on the day of because numbers were too few (as Anton has  
mentioned).  We might inquire of Dan or someone what exactly we do.   
I have no experience with this.
