Today, we’re bringing you the best from another KUOW show, Soundside…
It’s been a busy year for the Seattle Police Department.
A new chief was sworn in, the longstanding federal consent decree ended and the city reached a new contract with the Seattle Police Officers Guild that changes how it can approach unarmed crisis response.
Plus, a new mayor will take office in January.
Mayor-elect Katie Wilson announced this week that she planned to retain Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes, despite some rumors to the contrary.
Soundside's Libby Denkmann talked with Barnes last week.

The Soundside team includes Sarah Leibovitz, Jason Burrows, Hans Anderson, Gabrielle Healy, Maleeha Syed, and Jed Kim.
