McKinley Hill Neighborhood Plan

The City’s pilot Neighborhood Planning Program (NPP) provides enhanced planning and development support to help communities create strong, vibrant, and diverse neighborhoods. 

 City Council identified the McKinley Hill Neighborhood as a priority for the pilot year of the Neighborhood Planning Program. 

  • Building neighborhood capacity and community 
  • Supporting a vibrant business district 
  • Neighborhood identity/character  
  • Creating a healthy and sustainable neighborhood  
  • Community engagement for the future of the Gault School site  

Project Area

For the purpose of this plan, we are defining “neighborhood” as the Mixed-Use Center (business district) and the surrounding residential neighborhood. These boundaries may be adjusted during the planning process, but it is important to include public amenities (such as parks and schools) that service the core neighborhood.
