MY EDMONDS NEWS Posted: May 6, 2021
Open Letter to Council President Susan Paine,
The Alliance of Citizens for Edmonds (ACE) wrote to you on March 30, 2021 with concerns about lack of advance notice to Edmonds residents when council addresses Citizens Housing Commission (CHC) recommendations. In response, you assured notice of CHC proposals coming before council.
Development Services Director Shane Hope promised at her initial overview that each of the CHC proposals would be presented in detail to council for public discussion, allowing the full council to determine how to move each idea forward, if at all. In response to a second email about notice regarding the HASCO Interlocal Agreement discussion by Council (a CHC recommendation) you replied, “As I said in my earlier email, as soon as the CHC recommendations are ready to come to council, we will provide notice through the usual avenues.”
