Why it matters
The site contains a Category II wetland and a geohazard area for steep slopes, so the proposal includes critical area buffer mitigation, a new access road, utility extensions, and street frontage improvements. Because of the critical areas and planned tree clearing, a Forest Practice Application under Marysville Municipal Code 22D.050.025 is also required. The city says it anticipates issuing a Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance and is using the optional process under WAC 197-11-355, meaning this comment period may be the only opportunity to weigh in on the project's environmental impacts 1.
What changed / what's next
- The city declared the application complete on May 13, 2026 and opened a public comment period running until 4:00 PM on June 3, 2026 1.
- The city posted the notice of application with an optional SEPA M-DNS process, signaling its anticipated environmental determination 1.
- Whether the city issues the anticipated Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance and what mitigation measures are attached 1.
