The trains are coming: reaching Shoreline residents of modest means


RSVP by August 3, 2013 online

Senior Services, a nonprofit serving King County, received an equity grant to engage folks in the Shoreline Light Rail Planning Process whose voices are not often heard. Specifically, we’re reaching out to Shoreline residents who are people of modest means. 

A special event will be held on Wednesday, August 7 to find out what they envision, and to prepare them to engage in transit oriented development.

4:30 - 6:30pm Buffet dinner served
6:30 - 9:30pm Light Rail planning meeting

POPY's Café, Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, 14514 20th Ave NE, Shoreline 98155

The attendees will have several benefits:
  • Extra time and training to explain the process
  • Free dinner, day care and transportation to the events
  • A stipend for people who want to become “Community Connectors” and invite others to attend 
  • Resources and support for the people (probably a handful) who will want to stay engaged and bring their voice to the planning process over the next six months.
