City finds no significant environmental impact for NorthPoint industrial expansion plan
Marysville says the NorthPoint MV2 industrial expansion won't need a full environmental review, opening a comment and appeal window through July 29, 2025. 1
What the records say
The city is updating its 2024 Comprehensive Plan and zoning maps to reflect a 39-acre expansion of the Marysville Urban Growth Area (UGA) — land set aside for city-style growth — that the Snohomish County Council approved on December 4, 2024. 1 The property, located west of 67th Avenue NE, north of 162nd Street NE, and east of the BNSF railway, would be assigned a Light Industrial land use designation. 1
- The Snohomish County Council approved the 39-acre NorthPoint MV2 UGA expansion on December 4, 2024. 1
- The city proposes amendments to the 2024 Comprehensive Plan and zoning maps to reflect the expansion, assigning a Light Industrial land use designation. 1
- After reviewing an environmental checklist, the city determined the proposal has no probable significant adverse impact on the environment, so an environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required. 1
- Written comments must be received by July 29, 2025. 1
- Appeals must be filed in writing by 4 p.m. on July 29, 2025, and must include a $500 filing fee. 1
Why it matters
This is a non-project action, meaning it only changes maps and plan text rather than approving a specific building. But the Light Industrial designation sets the land use direction for the area, shaping what kinds of businesses and facilities could be built there later. 1 Residents who want to weigh in can submit written comments or file an appeal by July 29, 2025. 1
What changed / what's next
- The city issued the Determination of Non-Significance on July 15, 2025, opening a 14-day public comment and appeal period. 1
- Whether the city receives comments or appeals by the July 29, 2025 deadline. 1
- The record does not state when the plan amendments would be adopted or what happens after the comment period closes. 1
