Building and Community
Administrative Recommendation: City Council adopt Resolution No. 4092.
Background Summary:
On February 6, 2006, the Auburn City Council approved Resolution No. 3982 and on March 15, 2006,
approved Resolution No. 4003 establishing a six month moratorium on the filing of licenses and permits
related to industrial development adjacent to the Auburn Environmental Park. (AEP) The purpose of the
moratorium was to allow the City time to develop land use policies and/or regulations to promote
development that would complement and benefit from the AEP.
A six month extension on the moratorium was approved by the City Council on July 17, 2006 (Resolution
No. 4062), with a public hearing on that extension held on August 21, 2006. The moratorium has expired
on that portion of the original moratorium area that was rezoned to the Environmental Park (EP) District
on August 7, 2006 (Ordinances No. 6036 and 6037).
Following the August 21, 2006 public hearing on Resolution No. 4062 the City Council directed staff to
return with a revised resolution at the September 5, 2006 City Council meeting removing the area north of
what would be 4th Street NW (were a road to physically exist at this location) and south of 6th Street NW
from the moratorium. Resolution No 4092 implements this Council direction.
The area remaining still subject to the moratorium will be evaluated during the 2006 annual
comprehensive plan amendment process.
