Now that seven of the nine City Council positions will be elected by district, candidates must live within the district they’re seeking to represent. The new District 6 covers all of Ballard and Phinney Ridge and part of Greenwood. The new District 5 covers Greenwood north of 85th Street, extending from Puget Sound on the west to Lake Washington on the east, up to 145th Street.
