This ordinance adopts a new Major Institution Master Plan (MIMP) for the University of Washington Medical Center – Northwest Hospital. It amends Chapter 23.32 of the Seattle Municipal Code by modifying height limits and rezoning property within the Major Institution Overlay. The MIMP includes conditions recommended by the Hearing Examiner and will be compiled by the Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections (SDCI). This legislation allows the University of Washington Medical Center to apply for building permits consistent with the new development standards and program. The Official Land Use Map zone classification is amended to reflect the new height limits under the Major Institution Overlay.
