Thank you for publishing these development notices.
The possible determination of non-significance (DNS) for the Sandpiper condominiums is shocking. How can it not impact the environment to build two three story buildings for 25 condos plus 45 parking stalls where there were previously two houses on 3rd Ave South? More alarming is that the site has significant wetlands onsite, next to the east section of the Edmonds Marsh. Such critical areas must be protected under state law. I hope others will join me in asking the city to more carefully review the Sandpiper project to protect the public interest.
