SPOKANE, Wash. — The City of Spokane is currently seeking public feedback through Oct. 4, 2023 on proposed housing amendments to the Spokane Municipal Code (SMC).
The city is seeking feedback as part of its Building Opportunity for Housing Project aimed at addressing Spokane's housing crisis.
The city says it is proposing amendments to the comprehensive plan and zoning code that "will increase different housing types in the city's development code. While Phase 1 of the Building Opportunity project was approved unanimously by city council in July, Phase 2 still has yet to be approved. That phase seeks to make permanent changes to residential regulations in the SMC.
That proposal amends several sections of the SMC, including:
- Renaming residential zones,
- Expanding permitted housing options,
- Adjusting dimensional and design standards for single-unit and middle housing development
- Modifying related processes and procedures
According to the city, the public comment period ends Oct. 4 at 5 p.m. Written comments will still be accepted until the City Council public hearing expected in November.
