Historical NoteReturn to Top
The Department of Neighborhoods was created in 1991 by consolidating staff from the Executive Department's Citizens Service Bureau and Office of Neighborhoods, the Community Service Centers of the Department of Human Resources, and the Neighborhood Assistance Division of the Department of Community Development. The Office of Urban Conservation, the City's historic preservation agency, was added in 1992. The following year, the department added a community development function by taking over projects in the Central Area, Southeast Seattle, and the Port of Seattle. In 1999, the Neighborhood Planning Office was abolished and its continuing functions were assumed by the Department of Neighborhoods. The Department's mission is to bring local government closer to the citizens by maintaining a responsive presence in Seattle neighborhoods, by responding to citizen concerns and complaints, and providing a communications link for neighborhoods on City issues that will have an impact on them. The department operates the Neighborhood Service Centers (Little City Halls), administers the Neighborhood Matching Grant Program, staffs the Landmarks Preservation Board, and manages the P-Patch program.
Content DescriptionReturn to Top
Applications, proposals and administrative records for a fund that was established to implement neighborhood-initiatied traffic and safety improvements and later grew in scope. The program was first called the Street Utility Fund, and it originally funded improvements by the Engineering Department before the creation of the Transportation Department. It was later called the Neighborhood Street Fund, and in 2000 Cumulative Reserve Subfund dollars were added to the program, which expanded the scope to include parks and other facility projects. In 2006, Bridging the Gap transportation levy funds were added to the program, which funded larger projects that were selected by a citywide team. Smaller neighborhood projects were ranked by the Neighborhood District Councils and implemented by the Transportation and Parks Departments. The program later became the Neighborhood Projects Fund.
