Gas Works Park — Summer 2026 Event Schedule

As part of our mission to support and inform the community, the Wallingford Community Council (WCC) is sharing important updates on major events scheduled for Gas Works Park this summer.

While WCC is not responsible for organizing or managing these events, we remain committed to advocating for neighborhood concerns — including noise, traffic, and park access impacts — as we communicate regularly with city officials and departments. We are sharing this information to help you plan your summer and minimize surprises.

🏆 Behind the Scenes: How WCC Is Working for You at Gas Works

Big events bring big crowds — and noise, traffic, and wear on the park. Here’s some of what your Wallingford Community Council has been doing year-round, in coordination with the City, to keep neighborhood concerns front and center:

  • Tracking what these crowds actually look like. The July 4 event drew an estimated 45,000 people — well above the 25,000 originally projected, with World Cup visitors in town. We share these numbers with the City so permit decisions reflect real neighborhood impact.
  • A direct line to Seattle Parks leadership. We’ve built a working relationship with Seattle Parks — including the new Parks Director — so we get advance word when plans change.
  • Eyes on the ground for the biggest events. We’ve lined up a volunteer environmental specialist to help monitor impacts — noise, crowd size, and park conditions — during this summer’s largest gatherings.
  • A clear way to report problems. We compiled the event schedule above and the City contact list below so neighbors always know exactly who to call about noise, traffic, or parking.
  • Protecting the landmark towers. WCC backed a preservation review of the historic Gas Works structures before any City removal of features flagged for safety.
  • Reopening the shoreline (Waterway 20). We’re working with the City and consultants to reopen the fenced-off Lake Union shoreline just west of the park for public recreational access.

📞 Who to Contact About Event Impacts

If you have issues with traffic, parking, noise, crowd size, or other impacts, contact the city departments overseeing event permitting. Organizers are required to conduct timely public outreach (at least 30 days prior).

Please call AND email. Voicemails are deleted by staff once heard, but emails are retained and counted as official community comments tied to the event permit. Only written comments show up when the City reviews an event afterward. Photos help — attach them if you can.

We encourage you to share your concerns with all relevant City departments and your City Council representatives — not Parks alone. Event scheduling is split across Parks, Special Events, and Economic Development, so comments reach the right desk faster when they go broadly.

EVENT: November 5 General Meeting Agenda

This article originally appeared in the November 5 WCC Newsletter.


🗓️ EVENT: November 5 General Meeting Agenda

📅 Wednesday, November 5 | 7:00–9:00 PM
📍 Good Shepherd Center, Room 202

🚨 Public Safety & City Updates

We hope you’ll join us for our next WCC meeting on Wednesday, November 5, where we’ll focus on public safety priorities and provide early zoning updates before the busy holiday season begins.

Our featured speaker will be Devonte Belle, External Affairs Manager with the City of Seattle’s CARE (Community Assisted Response and Engagement) Team. Devonte will share how the CARE program—launched in 2023 and now doubled in size—responds to non-emergency 911 calls related to mental health, homelessness, and substance use. By expanding this service, Seattle is freeing up first responders to focus on emergencies and high-priority calls.

We’ll also share what’s next for zoning and the Comprehensive Plan as we head into the holiday months. Because the City Council will be in budget and recess mode through November and December, we’ll know soon whether a December WCC meeting is needed or if we’ll pause until the new year.



💰 NEWS: City Council Approves Public Safety Sales Tax Increase

On October 22, the Seattle City Council approved a 0.01% sales tax increase, raising the total city rate to 10.3%. This small change is expected to generate $40 million annually for programs like substance-use treatment and alternative public safety efforts. It did not require a public vote because the state legislature authorized the raise restricted to public safety priorities.

🚧 SDOT Safety & Mobility Projects in Wallingford

At our October WCC meeting, SDOT’s Vision Zero lead, David Burgesser, shared progress on several safety improvements coming in 2026:

  • Protected left-turn signal at 45th & Wallingford Ave
  • Pedestrian refuge islands at 41st & Stone and 2nd Ave NE & 45th
  • Traffic calming and lane narrowing travel lanes on North Pacific between Meridian and Corliss
  • Installing radar speed feedback signs on North Pacific and Sunnyside Avenue
  • Improving the intersection and pedestrian crossings at North Pacific and Bagley and North Pacific and Corliss Avenue North
  • New radar feedback signs to reduce speeding on arterials
  • The WCC requested tools to slow speeds on 40th from Stoneway heading east and left turn signals on Meridian and 50th ( No commitments for this request)

Neighbors are encouraged to continue reporting safety issues through the Find It, Fix It app or by contacting SDOT directly.



🌍 Emergency Preparedness – Forming a Wallingford HUB

Ann Forrest from Seattle’s Emergency Hub network reminded us that during a major disaster, neighbors will be the first responders. Wallingford still doesn’t have an official Emergency HUB, and Ann is helping residents organize one.

📅 Next Meeting: Saturday, November 1 | 3:00–4:30 PM
📍 Wallingford Senior Center / 4649 Sunnyside Avenue North

Come learn how to prepare your home and connect with others to build a stronger, more resilient community. NO RSVP required, just show up with a friend.



🏘️ Comprehensive Plan Phase 2 (Early 2026)

Following the CARE TEAM, we will review what we can expect in Phase 2 and take questions.

Stay tuned for WCC updates in early 2026 regarding Phase 2. The Mayor’s proposed plan will reintroduce rezones within boundaries of 30 new Neighborhood Centers and expanded Regional and Urban Centers. This will include specific zoning category changes for individual lots along frequent transit corridors/arterials city-wide.

The provided link below contains 62 neighborhood boundary maps, and re-zoning for these lots will be considered in Phase 2. Note that the Tangletown boundary map in the link is the original. Version A for Tangletown (submitted by Dan Strauss) is currently undergoing environmental impact studies due to boundary location changes with decisions expected in 2026. The Wallingford Urban Center boundaries in the link remain unchanged from the 2019 upzones. Minor zoning changes within the Wallingford Urban Center boundary were discussed at WCC meetings in 2025 and confirmed by Michael Hubner (Lead Planner, OPCD) through the distribution of updated maps.

https://www.seattle.gov/documents/Departments/OPCD/SeattlePlan/OneSeattlePlanProposedCenterBoundariesMay2025.pdf

New zoning proposals are set to be released in early 2026, proposing new heights to lots facing frequent transit corridors across the city. Specifically, the Wallingford bus route arterials (31, 32) may see zoning changes to lots along Wallingford Avenue South (below 40th), 40th Street (east/west to I-5), and 35th Street (east/west from Wallingford Avenue to Stoneway/Fremont Avenue). If you recall, the original Wallingford and Tangletown map proposals from October, 2024 identified zoning changes with height increases to lots along the bus route for the 62 servicing Wallingford and Tangletown. From 50th along Meridian heading north/south and along Kensington. So answers on specific zoning are coming in early 2026 beginning Phase 2. Supposedly, the city will schedule more open houses related to phase 2 zoning proposals.

The City Council Select Committee (comprising all council members) will accelerate Phase 2 after the October/November Budget meetings conclude and the results of the Mayoral election and the positions for two at-large City Council members, Sara Nelson and Alexis Mercedez Rinck, are known. Phase 1 of the Comprehensive Plan concluded with voting on amendments and maps following the September 17-19 Select Committee meetings.

🗺️ Understanding Wallingford’s Boundaries

Recently, some residents have been confused about where Wallingford’s borders actually are—one even said that South Wallingford by Gas Works Park wasn’t part of Wallingford (which is definitely not true!). It’s important to clarify our full neighborhood boundaries as we head into Phase 2 so that no areas are left out of the discussion.
To provide clarity on Wallingford’s boundaries, the maps below illustrate the areas where the WCC has advocated in 2025 and will continue to address rezoning challenges in 2026. These boundaries are recognized in our bylaws and by the city for neighborhood planning.

  • North Boundary: 60th
  • West Boundary: Aurora (except south of 40th, where Wallingford borders the Fremont Urban Village)
  • East Boundary: I-5
  • South Boundary: Northlake/Pacific

Note that City Council representation is slightly different: Council member Strauss (D6) covers areas above 50th, and Council member Rivera (D6) covers areas below 50th.

🌳 Gas Works Park Update

Seattle Parks and Recreation has proposed removing ladders and walkways from the Gas Works Park towers after last year’s tragic accident. The Landmarks Preservation Board is now reviewing whether better lighting, signage, or cameras could be safer alternatives.

Oct. 1 General Meeting: Public Safety Focus 🚨 & Zoning Update

Dear Neighbors,

We want to share two important updates with you this month: first, a quick recap on recent zoning decisions that affect Wallingford, and second, an invitation to our next Wallingford Community Council meeting on Wednesday, October 1st, featuring a Public Safety focuswith speakers from the Fire Department, SDOT, SPU, and more.

Zoning Update

The Wallingford Community Council thanks everyone who has followed and spoken up during the Comprehensive Plan and Middle Housing process over the last year. Your emails, calls, and testimony at the September 12th Public Hearing made a difference.

We are happy to report that the last-minute Amendment 34 (proposing 8 new Neighborhood Centers, including South Wallingford/Gas Works) was voted down by Council on September 18. However, Resolution 32183 directs future study on additional amendments with maps in consideration of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The amendments in the resolution did not pass, but will be up for a Council vote in November. The maps for South Wallingford/Gas Works, Tangletown, and others are found within the link to Resolution 32183.

Council Bill CB120985 adopts the final Comp Plan update, CB120993 makes permanent the provisions of HB1110. You will find the latest updates from Council votes on amendments within the links to CB120985 and CB120993 considered in the final Select Committee meetings September 17-19 that concluded phase 1 of the Comprehensive Plan.

Visit this page to see how the council voted by each amendment number for all of the amendments: Voting Results PDF.

In January of 2026, the Council will begin Phase 2 of the Comprehensive Plan — which will include any concepts studied in Resolution 32183, and specific zoning for Neighborhood Centers, Lowrise Residential zones and frequent transit zoning for bus arterials.

WCC General Meeting on Wednesday, Oct 1st

This contains the Draft Plan and other key related documents. Recapping the WCC November / December  Meeting Information on One Seattle Plan and Rezone Maps

On October 16, 2024, the city released online maps with the locations of “NR” (Neighborhood Residential) zones where formerly single-family lots outside urban villages will be converted to denser multi-family 5,000 square foot lots allowing 4-6 units per lot as required in the state-mandated legislation HB1110. Four units are now allowed in all designated NR zones, but six units are allowed ¼ mile from major transit (rapid ride or light rail). 

OPCD provided opportunities to comment on online maps using social media and held open houses for each city council district, distributed paper maps for neighborhoods, and closed public comment on December 2024. 

At our meetings, we demonstrated in our meeting how you can use the online maps to show current and proposed zoning for individual properties by address. We also distributed maps showing proposed rezone locations and differences in the lowrise and NR zones including heights, setbacks, far, lot coverage for each of the zone changes.

WCC’s November presentation explained the details of the Mayor’s plan which is additional and separate from the state plan. The Mayor’s rezone proposals include expansions of 30 Neighborhood Centers and conversions of thousands of single-family lots to multi-family surrounding the 30 Neighborhood Centers citywide increasing bulk, height, and scale. In addition, the Mayor’s proposal proposes to rezone single-family lots facing arterials city-wide on the bus routes for “frequent transit” from “single-family lowrise” to 5 stories. The public comments received on the rezone maps through December 20 will be compiled and shared this coming spring 2025.

The Comp Plan housing growth target from April 2024 set a target of 80,000 to 120,000 housing units. The FEIS ( Final Environmental Impact Study) just released studied the 80k to 120k impacts for that housing growth target. The Mayor’s plan released on Oct. 16, 2024, surpasses the Comp Plan housing growth target by increasing housing unit growth to 330,000 housing units. 

The public comments during the Select Committee hearings for the next several months will be considered before the second set of rezone maps are prepared by OPCD and released in May 2025. The vote on revised maps will follow. Michael Hubner, Director for the Comp Plan said “he guarantees there will be changes on the revisions of rezone maps.

Major Wallingford Impacts

Ask the city to reduce heights in the Mayor’s frequent transit plan from “Lowrise 3” 5-story/50-foot buildings to more compatible heights of “NR” (4-6 units per lot 30 height) or “Lowrise 1” (30 feet) along arterials in Wallingford of routes 62, 31, 32.Let us consider the residents who want to stay in their neighborhoods and the potential displacement here. Many blocks of the formerly single-family zoned lots located along these bus routes in Wallingford have naturally affordable older homes. Many homes are family-sized rentals, including duplexes, triplexes, small apartments, and businesses.

The Mayor’s plan is proposing city-wide upzoning on all “frequent transit “arterial facing streets encouraging demolitions, not rehabilitation. These proposed high unit capacity zone proposals at LR3 allow 5-story/50-foot buildings to offer more built-in profitability for developers and will likely accelerate demolitions. This can displace and force out occupants of all ages, races, and incomes who reside in these homes facing arterials citywide. Rezoning for greater unit capacity and jumping to the highest residential zones can increase land values and property taxes for homeowners, renters, businesses, and those on fixed incomes who simply can not keep up with these increases. Assessors base property values on market sales on “highest and best use”. That means you can have property tax increased on the rezoned potential capacity of your lot even though you choose not to redevelop it.

The 5-story city-wide plan for rezones citywide along “frequent transit” bus routes….
– Lack of nuances of various neighborhood street considerations
– Ignore direct outreach by the city to neighborhoods
– Lack of consideration of context and existing heights
– Create corridor and canyon effects
– Shadow neighboring homes
– Devalue investments in solar panels
– Reduce access to air and light
– Create a loss of trees with an increase in lot coverage from 35% -50%. 
– Decrease front setbacks for larger tree retention and planting
– Create a scarcity of amenities like parks, libraries, and grocery stores for increased populations.
– Lack of mitigations for traffic, and parking congestion
– and overall is a very weak plan for truly affordable housing 

A win/win can be achieved with either an NR designation (Hb 1110 4-6 units per 5,000 sq. foot lot) or a Lowrise One zoning designation both blending in with existing heights of 30-foot maximum in the context of older neighborhoods instead of such a height jump to 50 feet to large 5 story buildings on the bus route arterials described below. NR zones 4-6 units per lot or Lowrise one zones increase unit housing capacity and density at heights, but are more compatible with the existing context of these blocks.

Ask the council about revisiting and implementing impact fees for parks, fire, schools roads instead of more levies which could help reduce property taxes.  Many other municipalities outside of Seattle collect impact fees for infrastructure.

Ask for reduced heights from LR3 /5 story /50 feet zoning proposed to NR or LR One /3 story/ 30 feet zoning for residents of these specific streets impacts for arterials on Wallingford bus routes 62, 31,32.
1. Route 62 proposes to upzone properties to Lowrise LR3/5 stories, 50-foot buildings along Meridian north/south from 50th- 56th
2. Routes 31 & 32 propose to upzone properties to LR 3 5 stories, 50-foot buildings along 40th east/west from UW to Wallingford
3. Routes 31 & 32 arrive at the 40th and Wallingford intersection then travel south on Wallingford to 35th 
4. Routes 31 & 32 at 35th and Wallingford intersection the bus travels west/east to Fremont Ave.

Email all city council: at council@seattle.gov or contact them directly by phone with your concerns.

Thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to making Wallingford a thriving community. Our goal is to update you on the Select Committee meetings and public hearing dates so you can be a part of the public process before final maps and policies for the Comp Plan 2044 are voted on in 2025.
