Committee chair:

We've heard from a lot of people - residents, businesses, property owners, City planners, developers and more - to get a broad range of input from Samish Way stakeholders. We've got a working vision under way, and are making an effort to be sure that every business or property owner has an opportunity to review the vision and comment now.

What is an Urban Village?

An Urban Village along Samish Way is potentially a vibrant, active commercial and retail center with residential units on the second floor and above.

You can see over a hundred examples of how neglected areas can be transformed this way at www.urban-advantage.com/store. Below is one illustrating an area similar to Samish Way, and the potential kinds of improvements possible.
