The Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) will hold a public meeting on Thursday, April 10, 2025, 5:30pm at the Shoreline Center to discuss a rezone at the Fircrest campus.

At issue is the southwest portion along 15th Ave NE (see map above).

Proposed rezone is a change from “Campus Zone” to “Central Business Zone” of this 10.3-acre lot, formerly part of the Fircrest Campus.

During this presentation, we will present project specifics and solicit feedback on a proposed rezone so that we can address potential concerns together.

Thursday, April 10, 2025 at 5:30pm in the Shoreline room at the north end of the Shoreline Center, 18560 1st Ave NE, Shoreline WA 98155. Enter from the north parking lot.

And the legal meaning of “Campus Zone” and “Central Business Zone” are? ? ?

It must be massively irritating to see all of this good-for-nothing green space going to waste! Time to pave it over and put in more pot shops.

Ahh, more trees gone in shoreline?

I assume they mean the Community Business zone, not Central Business? In any case, I'm happy to see this space being opened to a wider variety of uses.

Are we talking about zoning for businesses, housing (apartments) or both? How do you plan to secure the remaining Fircrest Campus? This is primarily open space, but it is extremely close to a vulnerable population.
