Near Northwest Area Plan

Latest news

Thank you for your feedback!

We are grateful to everyone who took the time to join community events, virtual and in-person, and took the online surveys. The planning team has reviewed and analyzed all the input collected during the second phase of planning. Click on the topics below to see key takeaways.

On Land Use and Built Form

  • Offer multiple tools for preserving and celebrating culture in Near Northwest.
  • Develop a package of tools that address concerns and that take into consideration the unique characteristics of each neighborhood.
  • Prioritize preserving existing embedded traditional missing middle housing and find ways to add more missing middle options without sacrificing affordability.
  • Allow/require commercial and/or a mix of uses on busier streets and within existing commercial areas. 
  • Focus on how commercial areas can improve their streetscape and identities.

On Economy and Housing

  • Study space programming within neighborhood commercial areas for the ability to expand outdoor dining and/or have the ability to temporarily close down portions of streets for festivals and outdoor dining expansion.
  • Focus on supporting small businesses, as well as opportunities to train a new workforce and retain and attract jobs.
  • Prioritize keeping residents at risk of displacement in place by looking at a variety of programs. For example, rehabilitation and ability to add density (ADU, second unit, etc.) to build equity.
  • Build more affordable housing and offer ways to prioritize existing and past residents in new housing.
  • Seek opportunities to support various types of temporary housing through key community partnerships.

On Mobility

  • Implementation of infrastructure priorities should focus on:
    • More electric charging (for vehicles and bikes),
    • Completing bike network gaps and focusing on enhanced safety, especially for bike routes that lead to destinations like neighborhood commercial areas, downtown, and parks/rec centers,
    • Including a buffer between cars and sidewalks and making sidewalks wider, especially on busier streets, and
    • Improving intersection safety.
  • Prioritize intersection improvements that lead to major destinations and intersections where two major roadways connect. 
  • Develop recommendations for minor and major corridors, testing feasibility of desired improvements within the right-of-way and defining what, if any, challenges to improvements there are.
  • Minor corridors should focus on pedestrian and bike infrastructure-improvements while major corridors should focus on making existing crossings safer and integrating the bike network. Adding more crossings at interstates and railroads is also a priority.
  • West 38th Avenue should focus on making sidewalks safer and more comfortable to walk along.

On Quality of Life

  • Focus on improving existing park and rec center amenities, as well as adding new ones. There should also be more of a focus on programming within recreation centers, and bilingual offerings should be made available.
  • Consider a multiple action strategy to increase food access through recruitment/retention of a variety of smaller scale healthy grab-and-go and neighborhood food stores and full-service grocery stores, in addition to expanding access to mobile food-co-ops, community kitchens, and community gardens.
  • Address the financial access (and cultural) barriers many residents face in terms of shopping for groceries within the study area at existing stores.
  • Consider creative, sustainable approaches to build more cohesive neighborhoods where all residents have easy ways to become civically engaged and to feel they are part of the community.
  • Increase physical and financial access to community-based healthcare.
  • Build awareness of existing services to community members, including education, job training, and social programs.
  • Provide more affordable childcare services, including before/after school programs.

Area Information and Resources

The Near Northwest Planning Area is made up of the neighborhoods of Chaffee Park, Sunnyside, Highland, and Jefferson Park. It includes a variety of housing types, commercial corridors, local shopping destinations, and industrial areas in the northeastern portion of the planning area.   

Existing conditions

Before public outreach begins, the planning team begins collecting data on the neighborhoods in the planning area to understand the current context. This data includes everything from the demographics of the area and its geography, to how land is being used now, what types of jobs and industries exist in the area and whether residents or businesses are vulnerable to involuntary displacement. This information is collected in the Near Northwest Briefing Book, which is intended to serve as a resource throughout the planning process. 

Issues and opportunities

The Issues and Opportunities Summary together previous community input and existing conditions analysis and to provide a detailed look at the primary issues and opportunities that the public identified in the area.  

 

Current Zoning Context

  • Urban - 46%

  • Urban Edge - 13%

  • Industrial - 11%

  • Urban Center - 11%

  • General Urban - 8%

  • Other (Former Chapter 59, Open Space, Campus Zone Districts) - 11%

Planning Need Indicator Scores

To help inform the neighborhood planning process, the city developed data-based indicators of planning need at the neighborhood scale. 

Each Near Northwest Area neighborhood was scored from low planning need to high planning need in five categories.

Neighborhood Livability Investment Policy & Regulation Economy Demographics
Chaffee Park Medium high Medium low Low Medium Medium low
Sunnyside Medium Medium low Medium Medium Low
Highland Medium Medium high High Medium high Medium
Jefferson Park Medium low Medium Medium high High Medium

Phase 1: Understand the Area

Planning for the Near Northwest neighborhoods of Jefferson Park, Highland, Sunnyside, and Chaffee Park began in early summer 2021. Phase I of the planning process involved kicking off the project with the community through a variety of virtual and in-person events, building awareness of the planning process, and hearing from a wide variety of stakeholders about what they liked and disliked about the area, and their ideas for the future.

Near Northwest Area Team

Planning is a collaborative, community-driven process facilitated by city staff with the support of City Council offices, partner agencies and guided by a steering committee of residents, local businesses, neighborhood groups, community-serving organizations and other constituencies from every neighborhood in the planning area.

Steering Committee

Members of the steering committee for the Near Northwest Area Plan were selected from the more than 140 community members who submitted the interest form. The group is intended to be a cross-section of the neighborhoods that make up the planning area, including residents, local business owners and property owners. In bringing the group together, the planning team consulted with the Council District 1 office, considered the area’s demographics, and sought out a diversity of interests, experiences and areas of expertise as well as voices from traditionally under-represented communities.

Steering committee members help guide the planning process, support public engagement efforts and help create consensus at key points in the process. Meetings take place the fourth Tuesday of the month. They are open to the public, and meeting materials will be available online after the fact.
