The City of Lynnwood has issued a determination of non-significance for a proposed apartment complex project at 18626 Highway 99, on the southwest corner of 186th Place Southwest and Highway 99.
A determination of non-significance or DNS means that a proposal is not likely to have significant adverse environmental impacts.
The applicant, TCG Investments of Edmonds, is proposing to construct a six-story, 304,204-square-foot apartment complex in two structures with 231 residential units. The maximum height will be approximately 64 feet. The project will also include demolition of an existing former automobile shop. A total of 326 parking stalls will be provided with 116 stalls located in a two-level garage and 210 stalls at the surface.
The applicant proposes to provide associated landscaping and will construct outside gathering areas. Excavation of 37,517 cubic yards of material and 5,979 cubic yards of fill for grading will occur. Steep slopes and a wetland are located on-site which may require mitigation. If critical areas are determined on site the applicant will be required to comply with applicable local and state critical area regulations.

Wonderful, just what 99 needs, 300 more cars on it. While I’m on the subject, is it really necessary to have a lane in each direction reserved for buses? How often do buses drive on the road? How much faster would traffic flow without that lane restriction, particularly during peak times?
