The community is invited to join the City’s Department of Planning and Development (DPD) for the Rainier Beach Neighborhood Plan Update Workshop #2 on Tues., June 28, 6:30 to 8:30 pm at South Shore K-8 School (4800 S. Henderson St.).

From DPD:

It’s been over a decade since community members worked together to draft Rainier Beach’s 1999 neighborhood plan, their blueprint for change through the year 2020.

Mayor and the City Council have identified Rainier Beach as one of two neighborhoods to participate in the current round of plan updates.  Rainier Beach has experienced change, including the opening of a new light rail station, library, and schools.  In other ways, community members note, the area hasn’t changed enough.   It’s time to assess the strengths of the original plan, affirm goals that are still relevant, and identify new goals where appropriate.  This is an opportunity to set the stage, for community members to work with the City to create a shared work plan that will achieve the community’s vision.

Childcare will be provided and the South Shore PTSA will host a community bake sale with all proceeds to benefit PTSA programs. To request information, interpretation, ADA accommodations, or to sign up for childcare, please contact Kerry Wade, at 206.733.9091 or kerry.wade@seattle.gov.
