Parks and Green Spaces Levy
Acquisition Projects

Acquisition Projects

The Acquisition category includes acquisition of two types of properties and is thus divided into two sub-categories: Neighborhood Park Acquisition and Green Space Acquisition.

Neighborhood Park Acquisition
This subcategory includes the acquisition of properties in areas that have been identified in the Parks and Recreation 2006 Development Plan and Gap Analysis as being deficient relative to the City's comprehensive plan goals. It is anticipated that the acquisition funding provided by the levy will be supplemented by funding from other sources. However, funding may still prove to be insufficient to complete acquisitions in all of the locations listed below:

Ballard Hub Urban Village
Belltown Urban Center Village
Bitter Lake Hub Urban Village
