Welcome! The Downtown Plan is an opportunity to get excited about everything downtown Bellingham has to offer, identify and remove barriers to redevelopment, and determine what is and isn't working well downtown. Most importantly, it's an opportunity to establish what actions the community can take to make downtown work better for everyone.
Phase I was completed at the end of 2011. Community input received during this phase is outlined in the Community Engagement Report. This feedback will be used to help inform the focus of activities that occur in Phase II.
There will be many opportunities to share your ideas, through a variety of electronic and face-to-face methods. This public process, called myDowntown, reflects everyone's stake in the health of downtown. We can all help shape the future of "everybody's neighborhood."
