![]() |
Dear Elisa, We appreciate the City Council's responsiveness to the considerable neighborhood concerns about the rationale, notification, lack of sufficient public input and consequences of rezoning our neighborhood from single family to multi-family status without our consent. Thank you for providing a forum to communicate with the Council, and for helping keep the character of our neighborhood intact. Many thanks, Peter Speer 1520 2nd Street Kirkland WA 98033 -----Original Message----- From: ebakker2003 <elisa@norkirk.org> [mailto:elisa@norkirk.org] Sent: Thursday, February 13, 2003 10:45 AM To: norkirk@yahoogroups.com Subject: [norkirk] Innovative Housing Dear Norkirk Neighbor, As a result of citizen input the City Council has decided to take a cautious approach on the Innovative Housing issue, and wait until the two approved projects are completed before reopening zoning for more projects. Please see letter below. Because of this the hearing on Feb 18th has been canceled. Thank you for your interest and work on this important issue. Sincerely, Elisa Bakker, Chair NNA elisa@norkirk.org Visit our website at Norkirk.org Dear Neighborhood Associations: The City Council discussed innovative housing at their February 4th meeting and decided not to pursue additional demonstration projects at this time. The two projects demonstrating compact single-family and cottage housing in North Rose Hill will continue through the public review process over the next six months (or so) and the Council will reevaluate the program after they make their final decision on those projects.
