Feces, vandalism, needles: Mayor hears Ballard business problems firsthand

As Seattle City Council debates next year's budget, Mayor Jenny Durkan took a tour of Ballard businesses to see how city investments have helped and identify the holes. What she heard from business owners were the harsh realities of doing business while facing some of the city's biggest problems. Tuesday's walking tour in Ballard was Durkan's third in the neighborhood. Just feet away where she started the tour, a store window on Market Street had been smashed by vandals and taped together. The man inside told Q13 News that the city needed to step up and do more to prevent crime. http://via.q13fox.com/BwL7j
