Townhome designs are being discussed

July 5th, 2009 · Comments

Troubled with the way townhomes may impact the character of your neighborhood?  Are you ready to see improvements in the way townhomes are developed and designed?  Interested in weighing into the process with your perspective?  If so, in Councilmember Sally Clark’s effort to take the Seattle City Council’s Planning, Land Use & Neighborhoods Committee (PLUNC) into the neighborhoods at least once a quarter, you are invited to attend a forum on “Fixing Design of Townhomes and Other Lowrise Housing_

July 14 – 6 p.m. – Meeting at the University Heights Community Center in the University District (5031 University Way NE, Room 209)

In this community meeting, the evening will begin with a continued review and discussion of issues surrounding townhouses and other lowrise housing amongst Councilmembers.  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 that will be addressed in the multifamily code update, but it will be the bulk of what we’ll talk about at these two community meetings.   These forums are prime opportunities to weigh in on the proposal at an early stage of the legislation’s review, and a great chance to talk proactively about housing choices, affordability and neighborhood-friendly design.

More information about the multi-family code update, including links to previous meetings where the issue was discussed is available on Councilmember Sally Clark’s website.
