Tired of writing to city leaders and getting no response, a crew of Northwest Seattle neighbors decided last year to start taking action. Armed with little more than barbecue tongs, kitchen-style pinchers, and trash bags, the grassroots “We Heart Seattle” volunteer team has since cleaned up more than 320,000 pounds of curbside garbage from around homeless camps.

For that — and for helping 68 indigent tent-and-tarp dwellers with resources to stop living on the street – City of Seattle leaders have a clear message for these volunteers: Knock it off.

“Stop helping homeless people. Stop picking up garbage in our parks.”

That’s the directive We Heart Seattle’s Andrea Suarez got last week during a Zoom meeting with Seattle City Councilmember Dan Strauss and at least 10 other city leaders.

Join your host Sean Reynolds, owner of Summit Properties NW, and Reynolds & Kline Appraisal as he takes a look at this developing topic.
