Ballard District Council

The Ballard District Council meets monthly at the Ballard Library and was formed to:

-create a powerful and yet representative voice from the Ballard community

-encourage the many diverse interests in Ballard to find each other and work together for community improvement

-create an organization of representatives; the BDC believes that the "whole" is greater and more powerful than the "sum of its parts"

-support and strengthen existing community organizations and encourage new efforts to create opportunities for civic involvement

-seek out, develop or strengthen civic leadership

-insist that city government and other government jurisdictions affecting Ballard are accountable to the Ballard district
