Notice of Decision
The Director of the Department of Planning and
Development has reviewed the Master Use Permit application(s) below and
issued the following decisions. Interested parties may appeal these
decisions.
Hearing Examiner Appeals
To appeal to the City’s Hearing Examiner, the appeal
MUST be in writing, and be delivered to the Office of the Hearing
Examiner, Room 1320, Alaska Building, 618 Second Avenue, Seattle,
Washington 98104. Appeals must be received prior to 5:00 P.M. of the
appeal deadline indicated below and be accompanied by a $50.00 filing fee
in a check payable to the City of Seattle. (The Hearing Examiner may waive
the appeal fee if payment would cause financial hardship.) The appeal must
identify all the specific Master Use Permit component(s) being appealed,
specify exceptions or objections to the decision, and the relief sought.
Appeals to the Hearing Examiner must conform in content and form to the
Hearing Examiner’s rules governing appeals. (The Hearing Examiner’s Office
has a form that can be used for land use appeals.) A copy of the Hearing
Examiner Rules is available for $1.75 from DPD. The Hearing Examiner’s
Office also provides a "Citizen Guide to the Office of the Hearing
Examiner". To be assured of a right to have your views heard, you must be
party to an appeal. Do not assume that you will have an opportunity to be
heard if someone else has filed an appeal from the decision.
Interpretations
Issues concerning the proper application of any
development regulation in the Land Use and Zoning Code (Title 23) or
regulations for Environmentally Critical Areas (Chapter 25.09) cannot be
raised as part of this appeal. These issues can be considered in an
interpretation, which may be appealed to the Hearing Examiner.
Interpretations may be requested by any interested person. Requests for
interpretations must be filed in writing prior to 5:00 P.M. on the appeal
deadline indicated below and be accompanied by a $2,000.00 fee
payable to the City of Seattle. (This fee covers the first eight hours
of review. Additional hours will be billed at $250.00.) Requests
must be submitted to the Department of Planning and Development,
Code Interpretation and Implementation Section, 700 5th Av Ste
2000, PO Box 34019, Seattle WA 98124-4019. Questions regarding how to
apply for a formal interpretation may be asked by phone by calling (206)
684-8467.
Shoreline Decisions
An appeal from a shoreline decision is made to the
State Shorelines Hearing Board. It is NOT made to the City Hearing
Examiner. The appeal must be in writing and filed within 21 days of the
date the DPD decision is received by the State Department of Ecology
(DOE). The DPD decision will be sent to DOE by the close of business on
the Friday of this week. If the Shoreline decision involves a shoreline
variance or shoreline conditional use, the appeal must be filed within 21
days after DOE has made their decision. The information necessary for DOE
to make their decision will be sent to them by the close of business on
the Friday of this week. The beginning of the appeal period may also be
provided to you by calling (206) 684-8467. The minimum requirements for
the content of a shoreline appeal and all the parties who must be served
within the appeal period cannot be summarized here but written
instructions are available at the Department of Planning and Development
(Client Assistance Memo 232), 700 5th Av Ste 2000, PO Box
34019, Seattle, WA 98124-4019, (206) 684-8467 or contact the Shorelines
Hearing Board at (360) 459-6327. Failure to properly file an appeal within
the required time period will result in dismissal of the appeal. In cases
where a shoreline and environmental decision are the only components, the
appeal for both shall be filed with the State Shorelines Hearing Board.
When a decision has been made on a shoreline application with
environmental review and other appealable land use components, the appeal
of the environmental review must be filed with both the State Shorelines
Hearing Board and the City of Seattle Hearing Examiner.

When specified below written comments will be accepted.
Comments should be addressed to: Department of Planning and Development,
700 5th Av Ste 2000, PO Box 34019, Seattle, WA 98124-4019.
