Potential SODO housing rezone sparks heated debates as city council hears arguments

Tempers flared and old debates were reopened as the Seattle City Council discussed a potential SODO housing rezone on Jan. 24, 2025. Seattle Council President Sara Nelson has introduced legislation that would allow for up to 1000 units of affordable housing, directly south of T-Mobile Park. Nelson said it would address the urgent need for more units, expand Downtown, and solve a public safety problem at the same time. She’s backed by a board coalition that includes labor, housing, and neighborhood groups, along with the Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Mariners. But two council members, Dan Strauss and Bob Kettle, expressed reservations about the need to do it now. Both said they were supportive of the arguments from the Port of Seattle and International Longshoreman’s Warehouse Union that such a redevelopment would infringe on maritime industrial business. Strauss argues that the issue was decided already with a broad industrial lands rezone in 2023.-------------------------------------------------- For more on the lead story: https://komonews.com/news/local/seatt... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook:   / komonews   KOMO News on Twitter:   / komonews   KOMO News on Instagram:   / komo4   KOMO News on TikTok:   / komo4seattle   Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube:    / @komonews   Watch more top local news stories:    • Видео   For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-...
