# 2026-9-16 Snoqualmie Economic Development Committee Meeting

The Snoqualmie Economic Development Committee meeting, identified in the title as September 16, 2026 (meeting metadata lists September 21, 2026), discussed downtown revitalization, including gathering merchant feedback on short- and long-term improvements to Falls Avenue and exploring a Center Boulevard parklet/streetery pilot. Potential measures included lighting, street or parking changes, seating, weather protection, and other ways to increase activity. The city is assessing the pilot’s administrative and cost structure; one approach discussed was city funding for a movable base, with the participating business covering the structure above it. Costs and budget impacts remain to be determined, and staff plan to bring merchant feedback back to the committee. A member also suggested exploring economic development grants as a possible funding source.

No contract awards, bids, vendor selections, or spending approvals were identified. The committee amended its agenda by motion to add an introduction of the new police chief; approval of prior meeting minutes was deferred because a copy was unavailable. The committee also discussed the city’s longer-term downtown vision and upcoming meeting schedule.
