The Land Use Committee grew out of the Vision Plan and the realization that Wedgwood needed an advocate to ensure that the community’s shared values described within the Vision Plan is carried out.  It’s comprised of 7 Wedgwoodians who bring various passions and backgrounds to the community.  Presently, the land use committee includes an architect, land use attorney, leadership consultant and executive coach, environmental consultant, real estate manager, and construction project manager.  The purpose of the land use committee is to:

• Implement land-use related recommendations within the Vision Plan and pursue a long-range neighborhood plan in cooperation with the community and City.
• Provide a location for Wedgwoodians to share proposed or potential project information and community land use updates.
• Proactively engage land owners and developers to ensure potential projects are consistent with the Vision Plan.

In addition to tracking land use topics and issues that could impact Wedgwood, the Land Use Committee is researching zoning and design guidelines as they pertain to the business core along 35th Ave NE.  If you have Wedgwood land use information or tips, please email » the Land Use Committee.
