According to the Rainier Beach Community Block Watch – the organization that hosted last night’s meeting with Jim Diers – Mayor McGinn is planning a rare Rainier Valley visit on Thur., Sept. 30, to attend a public safety meeting at Rainier Beach Community Center (8825 Rainier Ave. S.).
The community center is located on the northwest corner of Rainier and Henderson, where there have been three shootings, two beatings and a stabbing in less than two weeks.
