Design facilitated City of Seattle-initiated Urban Design Framework processes in three of Seattle’s most rapidly changing neighborhoods – Ballard, Lake City, and the University District. Urban Design Framework processes are the City of Seattle Department of Planning and Community Development’s neighborhood engagement tool to explore what type of development neighborhood stakeholders would like to see and to develop an approach for a subsequent legislative process. Generally, these processes serve as a precursor to zoning changes, as well as plans for green streets, multi-modal transportation plans, and other public initiatives. BDS’ role was to engage community stakeholders and facilitate consensus support for these city plans to guide infill and redevelopment.
