Code Compliance in the Southgate District Center

The Southgate District Center has been struggling with code compliance, achieving only 51% adherence to SMC and Developer's Agreements. When factoring in elements of the Spokane Comprehensive Plan, compliance drops dramatically to just 21%. Informal exemptions and waivers have harmed the district's character. The community is urged to take action, ensuring stronger enforcement of existing ordinances to protect the area’s integrity. Engaging in discussions about urban form, pedestrian connections, and appropriate land use is critical for revitalizing Southgate.
