Join us for a Middle Housing and Comprehensive Plan Open House

This community event will take place on Tuesday, June 6, from 12pm to 2pm at the Sullivan Center in Tukwila Village and will focus on discussing changes the City can make to incorporate more "Middle Housing" and gathering valuable input on housing and the overall update of the City's Comprehensive Plan. Food, refreshments, and other goodies will be available for those in attendance. Additionally, Somali and Spanish interpreters will be present at the event to facilitate communication.

If you are unable to attend the open house, we have other engagement opportunities available. Visit our engagement website to contribute your ideas on the Ideas Wall, take the Middle Housing Survey, and learn more about the City's efforts.
