This summer the Seattle Planning Commission invited communities throughout the city to participate in an online survey and attend meetings to help update the neighborhood plans that are now 10 years old. The plans are a major part of Seattle’s Comprehensive Plan, which describes how the city would like to grow over the next 20 years in ways that improve its neighborhoods.
More than 900 Ballard/Crown Hill residents filled out the online questionnaire to review and comment on changes pertaining to the original neighborhood plan. After compiling the information, the Neighborhood Plan Advisory Committee and Seattle Planning Commission have reported back on trends that were noted.
Tonight the Neighborhood Plan Advisory Committee and the Seattle Planning Commission are holding a second round of community meetings to determine priorities and new issues before presenting the final Status Reports and a State of the Neighborhood Report to the City Council and Mayor. The community meeting for our area is tonight from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the cafeteria of North Seattle Community College (map).
