Point Wells Exhibits for Hearing Examiner

Snohomish County Hearing Examiner

May 17 and 18 are the dates for public comments on BSRE's application for the Urban Center development at Point Wells. The comment times are part of a public hearing that is the final step before the Hearing Examiner makes his ruling to either deny the application or allow continued work on the application and the draft environmental impact statement.

The hearing and public comments will take place at the Snohomish County campus in the Robert J. Drewel Building (Admin-East Bldg) in Room 2 on the 1st floor (Stillaguamish Room), located at 3000 Rockefeller Avenue in Everett.

• BSRE will make its presentation on Wednesday, May 16th, from 2pm to 5pm. 
• Snohomish County will present its recommendation to deny the application on Thursday, May 17th, from 9am to noon.

Public comment times:

• Public comment periods start on Thursday, May 17th from 1:30pm and extend until at least 7pm. The County has committed to keeping the hearing open beyond 7pm to allow anyone arriving before 7pm to offer their comments.

• The second comment period will start on Friday, May 18th at 9am. The County has not committed to a specific length of time for this period so it is advising the public to arrive at 9am if they want to be assured of an opportunity to speak.

Point Wells is a proposed development on a 61 acre point of land in Snohomish county which is at the base of a steep hillside in Woodway and accessed only by a narrow road in Shoreline. The development would feature over 3,000 residential units in buildings as tall as 180 feet, and more than 125,000 square feet of office, retail, and commercial space.
