We focus on how construction, development, and building improvements have an impact on our quality of life on the West Side. We regularly make recommendations to the Zoning Board, and the Zoning Board of Appeals.
We work to coordinate the physical development efforts on the West Side with a particular focus on the Flats and District Del Sol. As plans move forward for the development of the West Side Flats, WSCO volunteers and staff are working with city officials and developers to ensure that new riverfront projects benefit our community. Our priorities are: creating housing (including affordable units) and access to the river from multiple places on the West Side; and ensuring the vitality of existing local businesses and the beauty and health of the Mississippi.
