Summary
An email from Brett Greenwood of the Sedro Woolley School District asked whether Lyman would require Lyman Elementary to be elevated above the 500-year floodplain for future major remodels; Mayor and council agreed it would not be necessary.
Council members reviewed an email from Brett Greenwood of the Sedro Woolley School District about the district's 20-year facilities plan, which includes Lyman Elementary. The email asked whether, if the school needed an addition or major remodel within the next 20 years, the town would require the school to be elevated above the 500-year floodplain. The mayor and council replied that it would not be necessary.
The discussion was recorded in the meeting correspondence section; no formal motion or ordinance was proposed or passed regarding elevation requirements. The exchange will be useful as the district completes its long-term planning and coordinates with town planning staff on any projects affecting floodplain management.
