Civic activity and Community involvement are two key components to Councilmember Licata’s history of involvement in Seattle politics that dates back to 1975.
Nick has been instrumental in founding organizations and publications such as The Civic Foundation, the Seattle Sun newspaper and the People’s Yellow pages to help provide people with access to community organizations, social service agencies, and political groups as well as promoting neighborhood involvement in the City’s political process.
