After reviewing the background information (http://bit.ly/ballardtointerbay) and our preliminary recommendations (http://bit.ly/ballardtointerbayrecs), please take our survey.

Indicate your level of agreement with the following statements.

Question Title

* 1. Interbay’s industrial area would not be a good place for housing because of conflicts with industry and some environmental issues.

Question Title

* 2. Interbay’s industrial area would be a good location for more office development.

Question Title

* 3. Preserving opportunities for existing and new industries–small manufacturers, repair workshops, wholesalers, food processing– to be in Interbay is important and should be a top priority.

Question Title

* 4. It’s a good idea to have large retail stores in Interbay so people wouldn’t have to drive to the suburbs to shop at store’s like Lowe’s, IKEA, Home Depot or Costco.

Question Title

* 5. Dravus Street is an important pedestrian street because it connects adjacent neighborhoods to each other, and to frequent transit. Making Dravus Street an active pedestrian street should be a priority.

Question Title

* 6. 15th Avenue W is not an important pedestrian street because of the noise, speed and volume of traffic it carries. Making 15th Avenue an active pedestrian street would be difficult and expensive, and should not be a priority.

Question Title

* 7. The traffic/bus lane on 15th Avenue W is not a comfortable or safe bicycle route for most riders. An alternative route or trail, parallel to 15th Avenue W, is needed.

Question Title

* 8. Neighborhood retail stores with apartments above on W Dravus Street near 14th Avenue W at the edge of Queen Anne Hill would be a good addition to the neighborhood.

Question Title

* 9. There should not be any change or new development in Interbay because it will only cause more traffic congestion.

Question Title

* 10. Are there changes you would like to see in Interbay in the years ahead? Are there preliminary recommendations that you agree or don’t agree with?
