For those of you who couldn’t make it to the Queen Anne/South Lake Union Public Safety Forum last week, Seattle Channel has video of the event and has put it up online–all 66 minutes of it–for your viewing pleasure!

Speakers and panelists at the forum included representatives from the Seattle Police Department, Seattle Public Utilities, Seattle City Council, as well as community and organizational leaders. Topics covered included public safety, Block Watch programs,  graffiti reporting–a particularly hot issue in Queen Anne right now–and more.
