MLK Neighborhood Subarea Plan and EIS Community Meeting Jan 19

MLK Neighborhood Subarea Plan and EIS - Community Meetings January 19
The City received a $100,000 Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) Project Grant from the State Department of commerce to develop a Subarea Plan and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) the Hilltop/Martin Luther King Jr (MLK) Mixed Use Center. With this project, the City is hoping to establish a model approach that can be replicated in other mixed-use centers. Over the next 12-18 months this project will establish a vision for future public and private investments in the MLK District and will integrate these investments with the needs of current residents, businesses and property owners.

2nd meeting:

When: Thursday, January 19, 2012
Time : 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Location: Evergreen State Community College, Tacoma Campus, Room 105, 1210 6th Avenue
