Troubled with the way some townhomes impact the character of your neighborhood? Are you ready to see improvements in townhomes? Ready to contribute your ideas? If so, check out the Seattle City Council’s Planning, Land Use & Neighborhoods Committee (PLUNC) quarterly neighborhood session:
Multifamily Code Update – Chapter 1
Fixing the Lowrise Zones
(including Townhomes)
June 30 – 6 p.m. – ** Special South-end Evening Meeting **
Youngstown Cultural Arts Center auditorium in Delridge/West Seattle
(4408 Delridge Way SW)
July 14 – 6 p.m. – ** Special North-end Evening Meeting **
University Heights Community Center in the University District
(5031 University Way NE, Room 209)
The evening begins with a committee work session reviewing code issues related to townhouses and other lowrise housing. This will be a working meeting, similar to what occurs at Council committee meetings in City Hall. The second half of the evening will be dedicated to hearing from you, the attendees. Townhomes are just one issue among many in the multifamily code update. These forums are prime opportunities to weigh in on changes, and a great chance to talk proactively about housing choices, affordability and neighborhood-friendly design.
