We were told that pe�sons submitting a letttr would reccive <br /> written notiGcation when a decision had been made. This did not occur! On <br /> October 20, 2000, (almost two (2) months later) when wc had not heard anyihing <br /> about the application, we met with David Tyler. Wc discovered ihat a "special <br /> property use permit" had bccn �pproved.August 15, 7A00, and due tn an error in <br /> the Evcrett Planning l�partment, noae of the "impaeted" neighbocs had been <br /> notifted.

He then requested a letter from us stadng that no one had <br /> received Ihe notice. This was accomplishod and receivod by the Pla�ming <br /> Depanment on October 7A, 2000. I'Icase see enclosed copy of letker. <br /> On October 31, 2000, the application was approved and wpies of the decisiun <br /> were mailed to residents. We were all surprised! At this 6me, the invalved <br /> residents decided to submit an appeal.
