Seattle has published a proposed growth plan for the next 20 years to accommodate a projected 200,000 additional residents. Please join GLCC, PRCC, and members from the Seattle Comprehensive City Plan to learn more, discuss, and ask questions.
- Learn about these changes and provide feedback to the City https://www.seattle.gov/opcd/one-seattle-plan
- Review a snapshot of the Plan and see what District 6 will look like with proposed changes. https://www.seattle.gov/documents/Departments/OPCD/SeattlePlan/OneSeattlePlanGrowthStrategySummary2024.pdf
- Review what housing types are being proposed. https://www.seattle.gov/documents/Departments/OPCD/SeattlePlan/OneSeattlePlanNeighborhoodResidentialConceptsDRAFT2024.pdf
- Discuss and ask questions about the implication of this plan on Green Lake, Tangle Town, and Phinney neighborhoods, as well as capacities of water and sewage treatment, electrical grid, transportation and traffic circulation, medical facilities, public safety, schools, tree canopy, and affordable housing.
- Tax implications of being taxed at the potential of the property
- In Green Lake, N 65th and around the intersection of Winona and Aurora and Tangle Town around Meridian, Kenwood Place, and N 56th is proposed to become a “Neighborhood Center” allowing 5-6 story buildings. “Neighborhood Centers” are described as, “allowing residential and mixed-use buildings up to 6 stories in the core and 4- and 5-story residential buildings toward the edges.”
- Green Lake Village to 1-5 and Greenwood Urban Village are proposed to become “Urban Centers,” which are described as “buildings of 3 to 8 stories. Urban Centers are also appropriate for a wide range of non-residential uses including office, retail, and entertainment. Buildings greater than 8 stories and major office developments should be encouraged primarily near light rail stations.”
- Formerly single-family homes were upzoned to three units per lot. The new zoning would allow one more unit per lot, equaling four-plex and six-plex unit near transit.
