In Project Development, community members take all the ideas submitted during the Idea Collection phase and evaluate them to prioritize 8-10 ideas per Council District. These 2-hour meetings are open to anyone to participate.
We had over 1,000 ideas submitted this year during Idea Collection and we need your help in deciding which ideas should make it to the ballot in June.
1)      Find<http://www.seattle.gov/neighborhoods/programs-and-services/your-voice-your-choice/get-involved/project-development> a meeting in your area.
2)      Bring yourself, your friends, neighbors, classmates, coworkers and acquaintances…this meeting is open for everyone!
3)      Meet folks in your area and talk about park and street improvements!
