Project Garrison NW Weed & Seed utilizes Public Safety, Development and Revitalization projects as strategies to displace criminal establishments and activity. 

Our goal is to inventory and map vacant, dilapidated, and abandoned properties developing baseline data for community revitalization study and citing possible forfeiture properties, assist in the neighborhood revitalization plan, structure a funding strategy that implements redevelopment utilizing public and private sources.

We continue to inter-face with Greater Northwest Community Coalition (GNCC) to determine feasible and appropriate development/revitalization projects.
