The Phinney Ridge Community Council (PRCC) is a volunteer, not-for-profit organization that tracks issues such as public safety, transportation, transit, land use, zoning, city budget priorities, capital improvements, parks, open space use and other civic issues.
The PRCC initiates communication with elected officials, city departments, other community councils and civic organizations to ensure our neighborhood shares in opportunities for public input and resources.
The PRCC is a resource for sharing ideas, concerns and for building coalitions.
Currently we are meeting via ZOOM. Check Agenda or Announcements for ZOOM log in information for upcoming meetings.
Members of the PRCC Board of Directors must live, rent or own property or a business between Aurora Avenue & 8th Avenue N.W. and between N. 46th Street and N. 75th Street

Management of Woodland Park Zoo for the next 20 years. Public Comment Opportunity
Background: The 20 year contract under which the private Zoo Society manages all aspects of Woodland Park Zoo and the North 59th St. Playground was approved by the City Council on December 13, 2021.
The final agreement reflects some of the amendments that were proposed by a coalition of community councils representing Phinney Ridge, Fremont, Wallingford and Green Lake. One significant amendment was to ensure that the final approval of the future Zoo Long Range Plan will reside with the City Council. We will continue to work to realize the intent of the Agreement with respect to the "special relationship" between the zoo and its surrounding neighborhoods. Amended Agreement link below.
