Description

77 acres proposed to change from Rural to Industrial, transmitted to the state 3-2; adoption returns with companion planned industrial rezoning.

Impact summary

Neighbors fear warehouses, truck traffic and a Live Local Act pathway to high-density housing in a rural area; a conceptual plan mirrors the adjacent Trunau industrial approval.
