This month, we'll have an arts and crafts activity where you can share your thoughts on housing density and affordable housing. Tell us what a denser Seattle would mean for you and your neighbors! All you need to bring is yourself (and maybe a friend☺️). We hope to see you there!
Whether you have been following the drawn-out comprehensive plan progress or you're just now learning about it, all are welcome to join partners of the Complete Communities Coalition (CCC) for our monthly Comp Plan Happy Hour events! These in-person events are a great opportunity to meet new people, get connected to the CCC community, learn more about our city's Comprehensive Plan and how you can help make an impact.
We are in the middle of a housing crisis in Seattle, with about 144,000 new homes needing to be built by 2040 to meet our growing population. We're also in the midst of a climate crisis, and adding more housing to Seattle could potentially lower our greenhouse gas emissions to 50% below the national average. How? By having a strong public transit system and 15-minute walkable communities, we could dramatically lessen our dependence on cars, making our communities healthier and more vibrant.
