Granite Falls planning director reports two new land-use applications; sewer moratorium lifted

Planning Director Amy Hess updated the council on development- and permitting-related items at the Feb. 4 meeting.

Hess reported that a sewer moratorium that had been in place was lifted over the weekend, clearing a procedural constraint for some development proposals. She also announced that staff received two new land-use applications: Moonbird Farms, a proposed 37-lot subdivision, and Pilchuck Crossing, a proposed 34-unit air-condo development. Hess additionally highlighted that Joey Harmon passed his B1 inspector exam, a staff certification milestone.

The report was informational; no votes or formal council actions on those two applications were recorded at the meeting. The items were listed as incoming land-use applications and will proceed through the city's normal review and permit process.
