Resident introduces Cheney cohousing project and requests future presentation
Summary
Margo Buckles, a member of the Cheney cohousing group, introduced the group's plan to develop individual homes with shared facilities and asked the council to schedule a future presentation; she referenced Haystack Heights in Spokane as a similar development.
During the public-comment portion of the meeting, Margo Buckles introduced herself as a member of the Cheney cohousing group and said the group plans to establish a cohousing neighborhood with individual homes and shared clubhouse and grounds.
"My name is Margo Buckles... I'm a member of the Cheney cohousing group," Buckles said, describing cohousing as housing with private homes and shared resources. She referenced an existing cohousing development in Spokane (Haystack Heights) as a model and asked the council if the group could schedule a future presentation to explain their plans in greater detail.
The mayor thanked Buckles for the introduction and the council did not take action at this meeting; Buckles invited council members to request a presentation and said the group would provide more information going forward.
