SEATTLE - Waiting on the numbers. It's been almost two weeks since the new drug possession ordinance went into effect in Seattle. On Wednesday the Seattle City Attorney addressed community members in Queen Anne on the role her office will play in the process.
The city attorney says it will be compiling data from referrals and arrests to see how it’s working.
"The goal is treatment," said Ann Davison. "We’re trying to get people into treatment and we’re trying to make public spaces safer."
