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.
Records from the Public Information Officer, including press releases,
informational pieces, and promotional publications. Materials relate to general
departmental services as well as special events and programs such as Neighbor
Appreciation Day, the Race and Social Justice Initiative, and the Involving All
Neighbors program. Other topics addressed in the records include the TOPOFF 2
emergency management exercise, neighborhood service centers, and Sound Transit,
as well as specific neighborhoods such as South Lake Union and Northgate. Also
included are photos of Mayor Schell's Neighborhood Tours.
Records are open to the public.
