On September 24th at 5:30 pm, Downtown District is hosting a panel for discussion of public safety.  BCC requests that friends and neighbors come out that evening because the time spent just mingling and meeting the other folks in Belltown is worthwhile, and because the panel that evening is spectacular . . . We are pleased to have Belltown Community Council co-sponsor the event, and hope that if you cannot make it yourself, you will be able to send folks from your building, business or agency.
