According to legacy practice, files were burned on a compact disc from
network storage for transfer to archives. Disc images were then captured and
files moved to network storage with regular fixity checks. Spider2008 PII Scan
and DtSearch were used to screen for sensitive information. DROID was used to
identify file formats, extract metadata, and facilitate processing decisions.
Files were then logged and transferred using Robocopy to preservation
storage.
Digital files have been combined into the pdf/a format for
accessibility. Original functionality such as hyperlinks may not be
available.
This material is available for use onsite in the SMA reading room.
Records are open to the public.
Biographical Note
Richard Conlin served on Seattle City Council for 16 years, from 1998 to
2013. He defeated Sherry Harris in the election of November 1997; Harris was
attempting to regain a seat on Council after being defeated in 1995. Conlin was
elected by his colleagues to serve as Council President for the terms 2008-2009
and 2010-2011, joining Sam Smith and David Levine as the only Council members
to serve consecutive terms in that capacity since adoption of the 1946 City
Charter. During his four terms on Council, Conlin chaired the following regular
committees:
Neighborhoods, Growth Planning, and Civic Engagement (1998-1999)
Neighborhoods, Sustainability, and Community Development (2000-2001)
Transportation (2002-2005)
Environment, Emergency Management, and Utilities (2006-2009)
Regional Development and Sustainability (2010-2011)
Planning,Land Use, and Sustainability (2012-2013).
In addition, Conlin chaired several long-term and short-term special
committees including:
Special Committee for the Retreat (2010) •City Clerk Selection
Evaluation Committee (2010)
Special Committee on Domestic Violence, Sexual Harassment, and Stalking
in the Workplace Training (2010)
Special Committee on the SR520 Project (2010-2013)
Special Committee on Yesler Terrace (2011)
Special Committee on Legislative Department Planning (2011)
Special Committee on the Library Levy (2011-2012)
Special Committee on South Lake Union (2013)
Conlin's committee work reflected his primary interests on Council,
especially related to sustainable development, neighborhoods, environmentalism,
and transportation concerns. Elected as an environmentalist and neighborhood
advocate, he championed zero waste strategies, salmon population enhancement,
the local food action initiative, and has been touted at a leader of Seattle’s
green revolution. Although elected as a progressive thinker and even being
identified with the Green Party, Conlin was later criticized as a moderate—some
even tarred him as a conservative—particularly for three positions he took late
in his tenure. He supported the deep-bore tunnel to replace the Alaskan Way
Viaduct in opposition to Mayor Mike McGinn; in 2010 he voted for an ordinance
to curb aggressive panhandling; and his was the only vote on the Council
against a paid sick-leave ordinance (he agreed with the principle, but not the
way the ordinance set it up). Late in his tenure, Conlin cast a controversial
vote opposing the financing plan for a new sports arena in Seattle’s Sodo
neighborhood backed by venture capitalist Chris Hansen. The King County Council
backed the plan unanimously; the City Council voted 7-2 in favor of the plan
with only Conlin and Nick Licata opposing it. Conlin’s support for the
deep-bore tunnel led to a citizen effort to recall him. The 2011 recall effort
cited Conlin for three alleged violations of law: signing the draft
environmental-impact statement of the proposed Seattle waterfront tunnel in
lieu of Mayor Mike McGinn, colluding with City Attorney Peter Holmes, and
failing to place a certified initiative on the ballot. On July 22, 2011, King
County Superior Court Judge Carol Schapira dismissed the recall petition,
ruling that it could not go forward because there was no proof of malfeasance
nor had Conlin committed an illegal act. Conlin was narrowly defeated for
reelection in 2013 by Socialist Alternative candidate Kshama Sawant, a Seattle
Central Community College and Seattle University economics professor. Sawant
won by 1.7 percent of the vote. Conlin was born on May 1, 1948, in Washington
DC. He received a B.A. in History from Michigan State University in 1968, as
well as a Master's degree in Political Science in 1971. He was elected to two
terms (1973–1976) as an Ingham County Commissioner, representing part of the
City of East Lansing. He later taught public administration at the University
of Botswana and University of Swaziland. Prior to being elected to Seattle City
Council, Conlin directed the Community and Environment Division at Metrocenter
YMCA from 1985 to 1996, where he established the Earth Service Corps, expanded
the Master Home Environmentalist certification (aimed at household waste and
pollution), and co-founded the policy group Sustainable Seattle. After leaving
City Council, he founded Richard Conlin & Associates, a consulting firm
that works with citizens and local governments to create resilient, sustainable
communities for all. He also is affiliate faculty at both the Evans School of
Public Affairs, University of Washington; and Antioch University Seattle.
