NOTICE OF PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING
NOTICE is hereby given that a PUBLIC HEARING will be held for Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA2008D) and associated amendment to the Monroe Municipal Code Chapter 13.08 (Sewer system regulations) on Monday, March 24, 2008 at 7:00 p.m. by the City of Monroe Planning Commission in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 806 West Main Street, Monroe, Washington.
These proposed emergency amendments reaffirm that the city's sewer service area is the City of Monroe corporate limits and removes existing provisions that allow the City Council to extend sewer service outside the city limits when a proposed development complies with City of Monroe development standards and the applicant pays all Monroe's adopted impact fees. The proposed amendments are in response to a recent decision by the WA State Court of Appeals decision in MT Development v. City of Renton, which prohibits a city from applying its zoning and development standards on a development when the development is located in another jurisdiction, i.e. an unincorporated portion of a city's urban growth area. These proposed amendments will specifically amend an annexation policy in the Land Use Element of the Monroe Comprehensive Plan, Land Use Policy LUP 6.5, and Monroe Municipal Code Section 13.08.240 (Sanitary sewer service outside the city limits).
Any interested person(s) may appear and voice approval/disapproval of the requested code amendment change. Written comments must be received in original form prior to the public hearing. For additional information contact Kate Galloway, Senior Planner at (360) 863-4535 or email at kgalloway@ci.monroe.wa.us.
The Planning Commission may take action at this hearing or may continue action on this application until a future date.
