Seattle mayor proposes zoning changes to boost industrial areas
Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell proposed measures on Tuesday to update the city’s decades-old industrial land-use policy.
The changes aim to strengthen land-use protections for existing industries, prepare for growth near light rail and support environmental quality for nearby residents.
Harrell said in a news release that Seattle's future requires maintaining and building upon the city's industrial and maritime sectors.
“This proposal advances key shared priorities: A diversified economy with industries and jobs accessible to people of all backgrounds, critically needed new affordable housing and a more sustainable city for generations to come,” he said.
