A Vision for the Seavey Loop & Mount Pisgah Area Developed in 2015 by a group of Seavey Loop area neighbors and presented to the City of Springfield. We Value: • Seavey Loop neighborhood as the rural gateway to Mount Pisgah, a treasured resource that provides engagement with nature and a respite for visitors from nearby urban centers. • Sustainable local agriculture that provides the people of Lane County with healthy, locally grown food. • Clean water, soil, and air for farms, homes, visitors, and nature. • Farms and open space as strong, job-creating economic engines. • Community and the diverse perspectives of Seavey Loop neighbors and the people of Lane County.

Visioning Scenario You have received an out of state job offer that was too good to pass up and reluctantly leave your southern Willamette Valley home. After being gone for 30 long years, you become sentimental and decide to return home for good. You remember that there had been a visioning effort underway for the West Pisgah area and you decide to visit the area to see how things turned out. You spend an entire day traveling through the area and are absolutely thrilled by everything that you are seeing. Please spend 1-2 minutes describing what you’re envisioning.
