FEDERAL WAY, Wash. — “Drinks with Daniels” is back. Last fall, KING 5 Chief Reporter Chris Daniels sat down with multiple Seattle City Council candidates and is now venturing outside the city limits. He asked multiple western Washington mayors to meet up for a drink at one of their favorite locations and have a casual conversation about the issues that are important to them.
You’ll meet leaders from Everett, Kent, Federal Way, Bellevue and Tacoma, who chose everything from tea to beer to a mixed drink. The segments will air Feb. 10-14.
Federal Way Mayor Jim Ferrell, the one-time prosecutor and University of Washington walk-on football player, leads one of western Washington’s largest cities. Ferrell highlighted how light rail will change the city and how it handles homeless encampments while talking over a Hawaiian iced tea at the Pac Island Grill.
