Seattle Mayor to Create Quick Jobs
By Erik Even | Dated: 02-11-2009
Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels says the city can move up some road, utility and park projects, to create more than 1,500 jobs in the next two years.
The Seattle Jobs Forward package announced today accelerates $315 million worth of projects from local levies and the city capital improvement program.
The city council will be asked to adjust the budget to create jobs more quickly.
Nickels also said the city could help developers by extending time on building permits and limiting environmental studies.

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
