Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrow wants to deploy more surveillance technology as part of his budget proposal. Harrow wants to spend nearly $2 million on a gunshot detection system deployed in cities like New York and Chicago.

"7. Stay connected, stay informed. Good evening at 7 31. I'm kelly flier. And here are the top local stories. A plan to raise the minimum wage to $19 an hour in King County. Northwest News radio's Jeff Poggio reports. The suggestion comes from King County Council member Girmay Zahale who wants He wants workers in unincorporated parts of the county to make as much as those in Seattle or SeaTac. SeaTac is $19. We know Seattle's 1869. And we know Tukwila's 1899. We wanted to be in that middle group with the surrounding neighborhoods. Now his proposal also includes annual increases and lower tiers for smaller businesses that may not be able to afford paying $19 an hour. However, critics like Kevin who crashed Zahale's press conference say it's just another mandate that businesses cannot afford. Nobody's in business to not make a profit. Those are called nonprofit organizations. These are not nonprofits. So you're going to have to propose something you that give them incentive to be able to do it. He says if the minimum wage goes up, taxes on small businesses should go down. But it's unlikely the progressive leaning county council will pass such a measure. Jeff Pojola, Northwest News Radio.

A study of local public transit buses and trains finds several instances of fentanyl and meth detected in the air and on surfaces. University of Washington researchers concluded that the amounts of the drugs that were found were small enough not to be toxic but Dr. Scott Phillips, medical director for Washington's Poison Center was asked if there could be adverse effects from acute exposure. All we can do is comment on the data that was measured. We can't speculate or say that but based on what was measured in this we would expect not to see a health effect acutely from these concentrations. The transit agencies say they're doing deeper cleanings improving air filtration and upgrading security to remove people who use drugs on their vehicles.

Smoking a tough habit to kick for so many, now researchers at WSU say they've discovered how CBD can help. CBD as you may know is a non psychoactive component of cannabis.

Turns out, as doctor Philip Lazarus tells me, they discovered CBD can help slow a key enzyme that metabolizes nicotine. Smokers. Why do they light up another cigarette? A half hour after the one that they just had. Sometimes they even light it up right after it's chainsmokers, right? The reason is because nicotine gets metabolized fairly quickly in the body. Lazarus says by keeping nicotine in the body longer, it will help keep smokers from reaching for another cigarette, which could hopefully lead to quitting. So far, the work has been done in the lab, but researchers are working toward eventually doing clinical studies with smokers.
