Sep 29, 2026

The full story

Anthony Burgess, senior program manager for Public Works Roads, presented the second workshop on proposed Public Works Road Standards and outlined next steps. Burgess said staff aims to publish a track-changes packet with responses to comments for the formal hearing and that the hearing could be held Oct. 20 if staff can meet publication deadlines, or otherwise on Nov. 17. He said the project is SEPA-exempt, not a change to development regulations or comprehensive planning, and does not require Department of Commerce review.
