Council approves initiating annexation process for 2.5‑acre H & M property
Summary
The council approved a resolution accepting an application to begin the annexation process for a roughly 2.5‑acre vacant parcel in the city’s urban growth area (the H & M annexation), to be followed by the formal application process and public hearing.
At the March 18 meeting the council approved a resolution accepting a property owner’s application to begin the annexation process for a roughly 2.5‑acre vacant parcel north of Chestnut Street in the city’s urban growth area, described in the record as the H & M annexation area.
Senior Planner Raising Davenport told council the parcel is designated for residential uses in the city’s comprehensive plan and that the action before council was to authorize the property owner to proceed with a formal annexation application. Davenport said the applicant intends to pursue a subdivision following annexation and that a public hearing and additional staff review will follow the application submittal.
The clerk read resolution number 1360Eight‑0225 (reading transcribed as 1360Eight-two25 in the meeting); a council member moved to approve the resolution as presented, the motion was seconded and the council approved it by voice vote. Council will receive the full annexation application and hold a public hearing as required by RCW 35A.14.012 (statute referenced in the staff reading).
