Seattle City Councilmember Cathy Moore resigns
Cathy Moore is stepping down from the Seattle City Council.
She announced the decision yesterday afternoon, citing health and personal reasons.
Moore has been in office for a year and a half, and leaves district 5 - which includes Greenwood, North Gate and Lake City - down an elected representative.
Why has Moore decided to step down after such a short tenure, and what does it mean for Seattle’s city council?
