April Land Use & Transportation Committee Meeting

Calling all Sunnyside homeowners, renters, business owners – come get involved in the design of new buildings along Hawthorne and Belmont by participating in this Monday’s meeting at 7:30pm in the Southeast Uplift Building (3534 SE Main St).

Advocacy at the neighborhood level and directly at City meetings can be focused on design standards that push for building façade surfaces with depth and other architectural features to avoid “box-like” buildings occupying almost an entire site.

At this Monday’s meeting, a City rep will be discussing a design overlay opportunity along Hawthorne and Belmont. Hope to see you there!

March Land Use and Transportation Committee

The City’s 2035 Comprehensive Plan Update involves changes to the location and type of residential and commercial uses in our neighborhood, especially along Belmont Street and Hawthorne Boulevard. Following Sunnyside Neighborhood Association (SNA) land use and transportation committee meetings, Board meetings, and a recent general meeting attended by a packed room of neighborhood residents, the SNA Board passed Resolutions in January and February to inform the 2035 Comprehensive Plan Update.

Come hear about proposed Comprehensive Plan Map designations to go to the the Sunnyside Neighborhood Association Board this Thursday March 12th by attending the Sunnyside Land Use & Transportation Committee meeting on Monday March 9th at 7:30 pm in the SE Uplift building (3534 SE Main St).
