Seattle (Wash.) Dept. of Community Development.
Biographical notes:
The Department of Community Development administered Seattle's comprehensive plan and provided direction and support for the city's physical and economic development through community planning. DCD was established in 1969 and assumed the responsibilities of the City Planning Commission and the Urban Renewal Program. In 1972, the Office of Economic Development was created in the Dept. to provide information to businesses that were expanding or relocating in Seattle. DCD was the lead agency for implementing various types of grant funded projects, such as the Neighborhood Improvement Program, Targeted Neighborhood Assistance Program, and Neighborhood Development Program. DCD was abolished in 1992 and its programs were relocated in the Dept. of Neighborhoods, Dept. of Housing and Human Services, Planning Dept., and other agencies.
