Seattle Hosts Club World Cup Matches Amid RVs, Tent Encampments, Open-Air Drug Use

Welcome, Soccer Fans

Lumen Field in Seattle’s SODO neighborhood hosted several Club World Cup matches this week. Instead of a clean and welcoming city, soccer fans heading to the stadium were treated to dozens of RV’s, tent encampments, and open-air drug use.

From 3rd Ave to Utah Ave, these are the same vehicles cleared dozens of times by Mayor Bruce Harrell’s administration. After nearly four years in office, Harrell remains clueless on how to handle this unending street crisis.

Sweeps aren’t working because all the campers are allowed to come right back.

Taxpayers should be furious at the cost and the lack of proper enforcement. The current plan is not working.
