Committee recommends appointment of Ashmel Brun to Everett Zoning Board of Appeals
Summary
The committee recommended that the full council appoint Ashmel Brun as an associate member of the Zoning Board of Appeals for a three‑year term after the nominee described relevant development experience and pledged to recuse himself from conflicts.
The Everett City Council committee on legislative and elections voted to recommend the appointment of Ashmel Brun to serve as an associate member of the Zoning Board of Appeals for a three-year term.
Brun, who gave his residence and said he has development and real-estate experience, told the committee he studies bylaws as part of his work on development projects and is committed to studying Everett’s regulations. He said he currently has no projects pending before the Zoning Board of Appeals and pledged to recuse himself from any matters presenting a conflict of interest. Committee members asked about his views on variances and profit-based justifications; Brun said he would prioritize decisions by the code and law and be cautious about granting variances solely for profit reasons.
Members moved for a favorable recommendation to the full council, the motion was seconded, and the committee voted in favor. The appointment now goes to the full Everett City Council for final confirmation.
