Subject:Party of Record for Vulcan Properties project @ I-405 & 44th
Hello Clark,
I would like to be considered a party of record for the Vulcan Properties project at I-405 & N44th St please.
I'd also like to share several concerns about the notification process for this project. The first is several years ago there
was a meeting scheduled for this property on a Thursday that curiously coincided with a Thursday home football game
for the Seahawks and the time may have been about 6pm. Additionally, I learned at that time, notifications were only
sent to residents/businesses that were within 100ft of the property? For such a large development, the
notification radius is rather limited as it's impact on the neighborhood is going to be very great. Lastly, I have
learned there is a meeting on March 15 at 11am at a time where many of the residents are still at work. All of these
scheduled notifications seems to satisfy I'm sure some law of executing the required notifications, but this seems to
favor the developer who's going to develop the property and move on to the next project and disadvantage the tax-
paying resident who is going to have to live with whatever the developer left and have next to no input on the project. I
would hope the City of Renton would hold their citizens in higher regard and do a better job of providing them with
more adequate opportunities to provide input to such a large project that is going to have a great impact on our
community.
Thank you for your time and attention,
Lezley Smith
