WHEREAS,on August 13,1990,the city of Marysville enacted Ordinance 1795,imposing a temporary ban on new connections to the City's Sewer System as the result of a capacity crisis at the City's wastewater treatment facility;and WHEREAS,section 8 of said Ordinance provides for variances from the ban in certain hardship cases;and WHEREAS,PENNY McINTOSH applied for a variance seeking to allow a sewer hookup to Lot 2 of her short plat located south of the residence at 8420 -47th Drive N.E.,Marysville,Washington; and WHEREAS,a public hearing concerning a previous application for a variance was held by the city Council on January 28,1991 which resulted in denial without prejudice of said application pursuant to Resolution No.1465,which is incorporated herein by this reference;and WHEREAS,a public hearing on the instant application was held by the City Council on April 22,1991;and WHEREAS,the City Council entered the following Findings of Fact: 1.Since the denial without prejudice of Ms.McIntosh's variance application on January 28,1991,the city has completed a hearing before the Washington State Pollution Control Hearings Board concerning the city's wastewater treatment facility.The decision from the PCHB is expected near the end of Mayor beginning of June,1991.The decision by the PCHB may result in changes to the city's sewer moratorium that would enable Ms.McIntosh to receive a sewer connection. 2.The conditional approval of Ms.McIntosh's short plat application on file with Snohomish County will expire on May 23, 1991 if certain required conditions,including sewer availability, have not been satisfied. 3.While no circumstances have changed since the prior variance denial that would satisfy the variance requirements of RESOLUTION Section 8.1 of Ordinance 1795,a denial of the variance application with prejudice at this time would not be just or appropriate. NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MARYSVILLE,WASHINGTON AS FOLLOWS: A variance to Ordinance 1795 is hereby denied without prejudice to PENNY McINTOSH,whose property is located at 8420 - 47th Drive N.E.,Marysville,Washington.
