5751-07 Seattle (Wash.). Dept. of Neighborhoods Seattle Department of Neighborhoods Special Projects Records 1974-1998 4.25 cubic feet 11 boxes Project files for Seattle harborfront and neighborhood projects. Collection materials are in English Historical Note

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.

Planning files for Neighborhood Programs Division special projects including grant files, correspondence, reports, photographs, slides, minutes, agendas, clippings and ephemera. Projects include waterfront development projects, the Elliott Bay Water Taxi, West Seattle Trail Art Markers, Columbia City Revitalization, Southeast Seattle Action Plan update, Urban Resources Partnership grants for neighborhood-based environmental projects, Dispute Resolution Center and the Neighborhood Crime and Justice Center Project, which supported neighborhood anti-crime councils in addressing crime problems in their communities. Included are Department of Community Development files concerning the Central Harborfront Public Improvement Plan.

Records are open to the public.
