AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Local Jobs & Economy: Starbucks says it will cut 224 corporate jobs tied to its Seattle headquarters, with 120 employees in Seattle choosing not to relocate to Nashville and another 104 affected by a broader restructuring; the WARN notice lists a Nov. 1 final day for departing workers. Community Safety: A Rainier Beach “Back2School Bash” is credited with reducing youth-crime incidents at the neighborhood’s highest-incident spots by about 30% to 40% over the past decade, after a 40% drop in the first year. Sports & Community: Seattle Storm guard Natisha Hiedeman’s new Run Budz social run club drew nearly 400 people to Green Lake Park, turning a quick Twitch idea into a fast-growing local tradition. Public Safety & Accountability: New reporting on the Longview chemical disaster says workers had raised concerns about a tank’s condition and maintenance before it failed, raising fresh questions about inspections. Education & Oversight: Edmonds school board voted to keep former Meadowdale Elementary principal Dan Davis on the payroll through at least June 2027, citing state law amid community pressure over how alleged misconduct was handled.
