Three topics of current interest were covered:

  • Transitioning of CHNA Leadership
  • City Council Action on the Permanent Supportive Housing at the former La Quinta Inn


The attached meeting notes provide a summary of the discussion.

Our next regular meeting is TENTATIVELY scheduled for May 9. We are checking locations for availability which may affect the date and time of that meeting. 
We will let you know when we have the location and time confirmed. We will be electing our Board at that meeting. Please email us (centralhoughton@gmail.com) to let us know if you are interested in serving on the Board or in other roles for CHNA.

We are looking forward to seeing you in May

Survey: Future of Houghton Village (former PCC site)

4/1/2023

0 Comments

 
Hi everyone
 
Kirkland City is collecting input from residents (especially from Houghton and Everest neighborhoods) on what we would like to see in new development at the former PCC site. At the March 23 Neighborhood Association (CHNA) meeting we invited City reps to speak about the development (see link), and they collected feedback from the attendees.
 
Following this, the CHNA Board want to make it easy for ALL OF YOU to provide YOUR input, therefore, we created a survey (link below). We will collect responses until next Friday (April 7) and send them to the city on your behalf.
 
Survey: https://forms.gle/tiBSGEZhBYJEzH9X6
 
Thank you in advance
