The Seattle Planning Commission and Neighborhood Planning Advisory Committee want your feedback about the status of your neighborhood plan and the changes that have occurred since your plan was adopted. We’ve set up a “virtual meeting” on the Seattle Planning Commission’s website where you can follow three simple steps to provide feedback about your neighborhood: www.seattle.gov/planningcommission/. Your comments will help the City of Seattle complete a status report that will look at how well the goals and strategies of your neighborhood plan are being achieved.
Status reports are being planned for 24 neighborhoods throughout the city. The reports provide a brief overview of the key goals and strategies of each neighborhood plan. The reports include information about the built environment, transportation, housing, parks and recreation, and facilities and utilities. The following neighborhoods will receive status reports this year:
- Admiral
- Aurora/Licton Springs
- Belltown
- Broadview/Bitter Lake/Haller Lake
- Capitol Hill
- Central Area
- Columbia City/Hillman City/Genesee
- Grown Hill/Ballard
- Delridge
- Eastlake
- First Hill
- Fremont
- Georgetown
- Green Lake
- Greenwood/Phinney Ridge
- Lake City
- Morgan Junction
- Pike/Pine
- Queen Anne
- Rainier Beach
- University Community
- Wallingford
- West Seattle Junction
- Westwood/Highland Park
The virtual meeting will be available until Wednesday, August 12. Your feedback will be used to finalize the status reports, which will be available for review this fall. A “State of the Neighborhoods” report will be compiled and submitted to City Council by the end of 2009. This report will include all of the status reports as well as summaries of the responses to the questionnaire.
We hope you can take the time to share your thoughts about your neighborhood.
