Mary McCumber, Planning & Community Development Director,
briefly summarized the proposed development on the City's
Fire Station property. It was pointed out the action of
rezoning the site from P-1 to C-1 would not result in
direct attributable significant adverse environmental
impacts to the site or surrounding properties, and that
future use or redevelopment of the site will be analyzed in
conformance with SEPA Rules at the time a specific develop-
ment proposal is submitted to the City for reviEw and
approval. Mary McCumber indicated evaluation would be the
basis for assessing those measures necessary to mitigate
attributable impacts resulting from future development, and
concerns would be analyzed and evaluated at the time of
subsequent development.
Mayor Roegner opened the public hearing, and Jack Bereiter,
City Attorney administered the swearing in of citizens
