BACKGROUND

The North Monroe Business Association (No Mo), the Emerson/Garfield, West Central, and Riverside Neighborhood Councils, and the Downtown Spokane Partnership have agreed to work with the City of Spokane in a very fast paced planning process for the North Monroe Corridor.

This process is intended to fit the right amount of zoning and land use in the North Monroe Corridor AND put it in the right location.  Due to the fast paced timeline for this process, Seven meetings have been scheduled to complete the neighborhood input part of the public participation process.  After a proposal is developed and presented to the neighborhoods (through an Open House, Neighborhood Council meetings, or other venues) the proposal will be presented to the Plan Commission.  The Plan Commission may make their own changes to the proposal before they send their "Recommendation" to City Council for final approval.

The North Monroe Corridor Planning Team meets on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month at the Corbin Senior Activity Center located at 827 W. Cleveland.  Meetings begin at 5:45pm and end at 7:30pm sharp.  The public is welcome and encouraged to attend these meetings.  Feel free to come late, someone will get you up to speed.

Draft Maps based on the last planning meeting on June 19, 2007 are now available for review:

Land Use North (204 KB)

Zoning North (197 KB)

Land Use Central (227 KB)

Zoning Central (226 KB)
