Crista Master Plan to be reviewed at planning commission meeting on Thursday, January 21

from the Firlands Good Neighbor League

Firlands Good Neighbor League (FGNL) urges everyone who lives near Crista Ministries to join us in attending the next Shoreline Planning Commissioners meeting, 7 pm to 9:30 pm, Thursday January 21, City Hall Council Chambers, 17500 Midvale Ave N, Shoreline, WA 98133. It will be an open record public hearing as they prepare recommendations to the City Council for the Crista Master Development Plan. This will be our last opportunity to speak out on issues such as traffic, pedestrian safety, density, construction noise, loss of green space and tree replacement.

There is a public comment opportunity for neighbors to speak. FGNL has several speakers organized to participate. In all likelihood it will take more than one Planning Commissioners' meeting to hear all comments and address all the issues involved in appropriately preparing this master plan. The Planning Commission meets every two weeks and FGNL plans to have a presence at these meetings.

Written comments may also be submitted by mail to Steve Szafran, City of Shoreline Planning Department, 17500 Midvale Ave N, Shoreline WA 98133, fax 206-546-8761, or email. The mitigations, Master Plan and other relevant documents can be seen on our website.

Firlands Good Neighbor League is a volunteer group of neighbors who have been monitoring the Master Plan process and have successfully influenced the proposed mitigations. We wish to protect our quality of life, the nature of our neighborhood and our property values.
