Tacoma, WA places localized planning in resident hands with its Neighborhood Planning Program

Tacoma, WA Neighborhood Planning Program Localized

The McKinley Hill and Proctor neighborhoods were selected for an 18-month planning pilot. Each neighborhood starts with a Plan-A-Thon where participants brainstorm and develop initial ideas. A Stakeholder Committee guides community engagement efforts including surveys and mapping exercises. Residents and local partners work on the implementation of art installations, lot cleanups, and health programs that address neighborhood-level challenges.
