Concerned about development in our neighborhood? Wondering why so many houses are being built with no porches and ‘closed faces’, such that they discourage neighbor-to-neighbor interaction?Come join us at next Wednesday’s Land Use and Transportation Committee meeting of the Northeast Coalition of Neighborhoods (NECN). We meet at 7 pm here at NECN, 4815 NE 7th Ave.

We will have a guest presentation Trimet’s budget, and then go into discussions concerning infill development happening around our neighborhoods. You can’t help but notice that things are being built across NECN- houses, apartments, mixed-use, big and small. After we talk about what we have going in, we will talk about what we and our neighborhoods would like to see. Are current developments missing the mark? Is there a site or area that could use more attention or investment?
Our District Planner liaison, Debbie Bischoff, will be there to help identify what opportunities exist in the current Comprehensive Plan Update that could help address and influence the development that our neighborhoods will see in the future.
