Welcome to the Figurehead Brewing online store for beer delivery!

Due to the ongoing public health concerns around Coronavirus we understand some customers’ concerns around visiting public spaces, especially for those in the at risk population. With that in mind we are now offering at home delivery of Figurehead beer for the neighborhoods of Magnolia, Queen Anne, Ballard, Fremont, and Crown Hill on Tuesday and Friday. We’re also now delivering to Edmonds on Fridays!

If you live outside these areas and still want beer, shoot us an email at figureheadbrewing@gmail.com, we’ll deliver anywhere in the state of Washington if the order is big enough!

In addition to delivery being limited to the neighborhoods listed, a few other restrictions apply:

  • We can only deliver bottled beer or Figurehead schwag (no growlers).

  • Minimum purchase of $25 required.

  • $5 delivery charge will apply to each order.

  • Deliveries will occur on Tuesday or Friday, customers can choose a day/time window for delivery at checkout.

  • 21 or older person must be present to accept delivery.

  • Orders over $100 get a free Figurehead hat! And if you order a whole case (12 bottles) of any beer we’ll throw in an extra bottle for free to make it a brewers dozen!

Email us at figureheadbrewing@gmail.com with any questions, if you’re looking for anything not shown on our website like a whole keg of beer, or if you have issues placing an order. Cheers!

Seattle City Light COVID-19 Response

4/2/2020

OPEN LETTER FROM CITY LIGHT CEO, DEBRA SMITH

At Seattle City Light we are working hard to react quickly to COVID-19 while remaining committed to the well-being, both physical and financial, of our dedicated employees and the communities we serve. We’re doing our best to navigate through this unprecendented event as each day brings new developments.

Our service is an essential need, and its reliability is a top priority. With the Emergency Declaration, and more recently Governor Inslee’s “Stay Home, Stay Healthy” Order, we continue adjusting the way we work to ensure employee and customer safety while we maintain critical services.

To learn more about the steps Seattle City Light has taken to keep our employees safe and our customers supported, see our Powerlines Blog.

Here are a few highlights about how we’re serving customers during this time:

Infrastructure Work

We are prioritizing essential critical infrastructure work and doing work in a way that minimizes planned service disruptions. This is in accordance with Governor Inslee’s order and with protocols in place to meet all COVID-19 guidelines from the CDC, Washington Department of Health, and OHSA.

Please be aware that due to the nature of our work maintaining the electrical system, some essential tasks require crew members to work closely together for their safety. So, if you see a few lineworkers working side by side, please know they’re doing it for good reason and are minimizing close proximity as much as they can to safely complete the job.

And please do your part by keeping a safe distance – always a good idea when it comes to working with electricity, whether we’re avoiding a virus or not!

Power Outages

We understand power outages are burdensome, but even more so now. While the stay-at-home order is in place, we won’t intentionally cut power to complete a job unless it’s an emergency, in support of COVID-19 response, or an essential service project that is coordinated in advance (e.g., establishing power for sites used as temporary shelter or field hospitals).

We’ve had pretty mild weather lately, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t on our minds. If the winds pick up and cause outages, as always, we are prepared, ready to respond and will keep working until your power is restored.

Financial Support

Many people are experiencing financial hardships due to the impact of social distancing and business closures. During the COVID-19 Emergency Declaration,  we won’t shut off service for non-payment . In fact, crisis or not, we will never call you or knock on your door and demand payment. If someone says otherwise, they are running a scam;  report it online.

We’re here to help any customer, resident or business, struggling to pay their utility bill due to COVID-19. Call 206-684-3000 or send an email 24/7. Income-eligible residential customers can also sign up for the Utility Discount Program. We’ve fast-tracked a self-certified application to make the process easier.

Payment Centers

To keep you and our employees healthy, all walk-in centers will remain closed during this time. You can still use the payment drop boxes, and we’re always here to help you with account and billing needs online or over the phone at (206) 684-3000.

City and State Resources

Finally, Mayor Durkan and Governor Inslee have expanded and created many programs to support our community. If you or someone you know needs shelter, food or other help, please check their resource pages.

I will update our customers as things change. You are always my number one priority, and that remains especially true during this time. Please continue to support one another and stay healthy.

Take Care.

KOH Hair Salon FaceTime/WhatsApp appointments

From Dusty James @kohsalon Instagram 4/3

Hey Koh Fam!

I sent out an email to all of you stating that Inslee’s stay at home order is now until May 4th.

As saddened as we all are I want to move forward the best we can and offer at home FaceTime appointments to color and possibly cut your own hair.

This is limited to facial framing, bangs and single process color for greys etc. Unfortunately anyone who is blonde I cannot help over FaceTime, as it is a very dangerous thing to do at home because of breakage. But if you’re feeling brave and want to do your own bangs or touch up your greys please reach out to book a FaceTime or WhatsApp appointment.

Also I can ship you any products and invoice you!

CARES Act: Applications open TODAY 4/3 + other updates

IMPORTANT UPDATES ON CARES ACT – NEW INFORMATION, APPLICATIONS OPEN TODAY, APRIL 3RD

The Magnolia Chamber of Commerce has been using our website, emails and social media to connect our small businesses members with resources related to the CARES Act and the Small Business Administration (SBA) loan and grant relief programs during this difficult time. 

Please note that as of Thursday, April 2nd, SBA has finalized guidance for the highly anticipated Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). Although the early release of documents from the U.S. Treasury states that applications open TODAY – April 3, please note that SBA lenders are receiving this information at the same time. As such, many of the SBA lenders (shareable PDF attached), may not be able to answer questions and immediately accept their first applications as of tomorrow. 

Just updated on the website are new financing pages that link from www.sba.gov/coronavirus. As you can see from the screenshot below, it’s a nice summary of funding options. Because there are so many moving parts, many are recommending the directing applicants to www.sba.gov/coronavirus any new info will link up from there. We also strongly encourage you to contact your banker.
