Three projects recommended for city funding

The Ballard District Council (BDC) has agreed on three projects to move forward for city review for funding through the Neighborhood Projects Fund (NPF).

A four-member sub-committee recommended three projects but after some discussion at last night’s meeting, one of the projects was replaced by another. More than a dozen proposals were submitted (a complete list and write-up of the recommended proposals can be found here) and these are the three proposals voted on by the BDC:

  • Radar speed display signs on 8th NW from 85th to NW 100th
  • Speed control on residential streets: 13th Ave NW between 95th and 100th and 14th Ave NW between NW 95th and 100th St. (these were originally two different proposals, but have been grouped together based on their proximity)
  • Textured crosswalks – NW 85th St. from I-5 to 15th Ave NW
  • The neighborhood small-scale improvements are funded through the approximately $1.25 million available through the NPF. Each neighborhood district is allotted about $90,000 of the total amount.
