Town of Seattle Ordinance No. 5
- ... that a law banning Native Americans from living in Seattle was voided when Seattle itself was abolished? Source: https://www.historylink.org/file/10979 "In 1867, the state legislature dissolved the government of Seattle, at the request of the town's residents. When the town was reincorporated in 1869, the ban on Native residents was not re-enacted."

Overall: 
@Generalissima: I have found nothing wrong with this article. It is new enough, well sourced, and quite interesting (it's not everyday that laws get repealed due to the city no longer existing). The only change I made was to the reference section by adding a reflist template and changing "bibliography" to "works cited". Jon698 (talk) 02:22, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
