Comstock and Manito/Cannon Hill
Neighborhoods plan joint Open House
on Grand District Plans. Comments will be taken on
April 27 at 7:00pm at Sacajawea Middle School. After a
year and a half of work by neighbors in the Comstock,
Manito/Cannon Hill, and Rockwood neighborhoods, three
potential development plans for the Grand District Center
have emerged. Citizens will have a chance to view and
comment on these proposed plans will be on Wednesday, April
27, at 7 p.m. at Sacajawea Middle School, 401 E. 33rd Ave.
Once all comments have been recorded and
discussions have taken place, these proposed plans will move
forward to the City Plan Commission for a workshop on
Wednesday, May 11.
The Grand District Center is one of the
centers and corridors identified in the City's Comprehensive
Plan, which was adopted in 2001 following an extensive
citizen process. The Grand District Center essentially would
cover the area around Grand Boulevard between 29th and 37th
avenues. The proposed plans for the Center include proposed
changes to land use designations and to the zoning that
shapes how development happens. Neighbors spent months
wrangling over the questions of how growth should be
handled.
