Attend the upcoming public information session hosted by the Only in Seattle team to learn about changes to the program and the 2020 Application.

There is a big change this year:

Only districts that are not currently receiving Only in Seattle funding and would like to apply for the program need to complete the application.

OIS staff will be on hand to present a general overview of the program and details about this year's application, as well as answer any questions.

The Office of Economic Development's Only in Seattle Initiative strives to build a racially equitable and vibrant city by fostering neighborhood business districts that are centers of local commerce, community, and culture. With seed funding and expertise, the Initiative supports local businesses, building owners, and residents to unite around a common vision for their district and work together to achieve it. From business coaching, community festivals, and litter cleanup, to murals, outreach and real estate development, Seattle's business districts have used Only in Seattle to tackle tough issues, attract new investment and care for their communities.
