Full Description

In January 2026, new Neighborhood Residential (NR) zoning took effect in Seattle, expanding housing choices and creating new options for how property owners use their land. In compliance with Washington House Bill 1110, Seattle's updated neighborhood now allows at least four units on all residential lots. Expanded capacity for infill housing creates opportunities and challenges. For existing property owners and investors equipped with the financial resources and development acumen to take advantage of them, these changes expand opportunities to produce rental income, create flexibility for household needs, or generate wealth through the subdivision and sale of new homes. But many existing homeowners face barriers preventing them from realizing the housing potential these changes unlock, particularly homeowners with fewer financial resources available. These barriers include: A complex design and permitting process Limited financial resources and/or difficulty qualifying for or taking on debt A lack of knowledge about their land's development potential, construction requirements, funding options, and the development process A lack of time to oversee construction Mistrust of the developers and lending institutions The burden of managing a rental property Legacy Homeowner Development Support To overcome these barriers, OPCD is developing a suite of support programs for low-income legacy homeowners seeking to undertake infill development on their own property. This Legacy Homeowner Development Support program includes education, technical assistance, capacity building, pre-development services, expedited permitting, and project support. Pre-development services may include: Project visioning Regulatory feasibility analysis Due diligence Project costing and development of a project pro forma Identification of financing options Site planning Legal support Permitting support Through the Legacy Homeowner Development Support work, OPCD aims to catalyze development of middle housing in residential neighborhoods, create rental housing choices, and stabilize low-income homeowners.

Roots to Roofs Pilot Program: Verification Form for "Qualifying Community Development Organization" and "Equitable Development Use"
Solicitation # 2025-049
The Roots to Roofs Pilot Program, established by Seattle's City Council through Ordinance 127308 in September 2025, aims to promote development projects that include low- to moderate-income housing and equitable community-serving uses. This initiative offers alternative development standards to projects proposed by qualifying community development organizations, which are defined by specific criteria, including their nonprofit status and mission focused on affordable housing, commercial, arts, and community gathering spaces. The program outlines clear definitions and eligibility requirements for these organizations, allowing for partnerships with for-profit entities under controlled leadership by qualifying nonprofits. To administer the program, city departments are tasked with creating a Director's Rule that sets processes and criteria for verifying a project's compliance with the definitions of "qualifying community development organization" and "equitable development use." Applicants must submit verification materials as part of their application for participation in the program. The solicitation titled "Roots to Roofs Pilot Program: Verification Form for ‘Qualifying Community Development Organization’ and ‘Equitable Development Use’," managed by the Office of Planning and Community Development in Seattle, provides a long response deadline through 2035 and is overseen by Senior Planner Nick Welch. The program reinforces the city’s commitment to equitable development by supporting projects aligned with community and affordable uses.
