Takeaway #1 BDNA Board Meeting June 2023

HUGE OPPORTUNITY FOR BRENTWOOD-DARLINGTON

After two years of work, city planners have drafted recommendations for Brentwood-Darlington’s future.  The draft is a “MUST READ” for BD residents.  

Planners propose: 

  • Zoning changes to attract shops and services, and increase the stock of apartment buildings while preserving existing low-cost housing.  
  • Street safety and transit improvements.  
  • An equity focus to help residents remain in their homes despite rising rents, and gain better access to education, employment, and health care. 

LEARN ALL ABOUT IT!  You can find  here the “discussion draft” of the Lower SE Rising Area Plan, along with ways to contact the planners or access other means of learning about the proposals for our future.  Once public review and revisions have concluded, the plan will head for approvals by the planning commission and city council.  Then we advocate for government investments in our neighborhood!
