City update on 145th Station subarea meetings

The City of Shoreline anticipates publishing the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the 145th Street Station Subarea Plan by the end of the week. Two upcoming community meetings, including a public hearing, will provide information about the contents of the DEIS and opportunities to comment. View the event flyer.

The first meeting will take place on Thursday, January 22, from 7:00-9:00 p.m. in the downstairs fellowship hall of the Bethel Lutheran Church at 17418 8th Avenue NE.

 The second meeting will take place before the Planning Commission, Thursday, February 5, and includes an Open House from 6:00-7:00 p.m. and a public hearing from 7:00-9:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers of City Hall at 17500 Midvale Avenue NE.

The DEIS analyzes potential impacts of multiple zoning scenarios to systems such as transportation, utilities, and schools. Once the DEIS is published, the City will send out another announcement with the web page address where the document may be found, and 30 day comment period will be initiated.

On February 23, the Council will choose a Preferred Alternative zoning scenario to be studied in greater detail in the Final Environmental Impact Statement. Adoption of the Subarea Plan, which will change zoning and Development Code regulations, could take place on June 22, 2015.
