Seattle City Council member stepping down next month
The Seattle City Council (SCC) will have a spot to fill this summer.
Cathy Moore is stepping down from her role representing North Seattle, the SCC announced via a news release Monday.
Moore stated she is facing health challenges, but did not want to leave District 5 in a bad spot.
“My decision to leave the city council is one I’ve been considering seriously over the past several months due to some recent health challenges,” Moore stated via the release. “Ultimately, I believe that District 5 community members deserve a representative who can give their full attention to the critical issues facing the City and its neighborhoods.”
