Episode 1: Congestion Pricing, Social Housing, and more

Our first episode! Ian and Kiel discuss what's new and interesting for cities in local and state politics in Seattle and Portland. We touch on Oregon's ahab-like quest for highway expansion, the potential role of user fees, Trump's USDOT's insane funding priorities, city council updates, Seattle's Prop. 1A social housing initiative, and the role the government should play in housing. Kiel Johnson is a bicycle and safe transportation advocate and owner and operator of North America's largest bike valet in Portland, Oregon. Ian Crozier is an urban planner and zoning wonk in Seattle, Washington. Thanks for listening!
