Who has the responsibility to notify the public?

 

20.06.050 Responsibility of director for hearing – Open record public hearing.

Shane Hope has no idea it is her responsibity and duty!


The director shall: 

A. Schedule project permit applications for review and public hearing;

B. Verify compliance with notice requirements;

C. Prepare the staff report on the application, which shall be a single report which sets forth all of the decisions made on the proposal as of the date of the report, including recommendations on project permit applications in the consolidated permit process that do not by themselves require an open record predecision hearing. The report shall also describe any mitigation required or proposed under the city’s development regulations or SEPA authority. If the threshold determination, other than a determination of significance, has not been issued previously by the city, the report shall include or append this determination;

D. Prepare the notice of decision, if required by the hearing body, and mail a copy of the notice of decision to those entitled by this chapter to receive the decision. [Ord. 4154 § 2 (Att. B), 2019; Ord. 3817 § 5, 2010; Ord. 3736 § 4 (Exh. A), 2009. Formerly 20.06.002].

The Edmonds City Council Again Violates the Open Public Meetings Act.

The Council discussed the Finance Director Scott James, Separation Agreement in the closed executive session under the guise of potential litigation. When in fact, any potential litigation ceased to exist on May 25 th , 2020, and the seven days from the date Mr. James signed the Separation Agreement, May 18 th , 2020, thus waiving all of his rights to pursue any civil action against the City of Edmonds.

Lighthouse Law Group's inferior legal representation

Any extension of that time requirement requires agreement from the applicant and the parties. Uniquely, the Edmonds City Code requires agreement from all parties. I testified at the hearing and was not asked to participate in this extension or provide any further testimony. In fact, my participation has been excluded because of the one open meeting. If there have been communications between the Hearing Examiner and the Applicant those communication would  be ex parte and needed to be provided to me.    Mr. Clugston testified that traditionally the Planning Staff posts the Agenda and Staff report at the Civic Center and Library.
