The city shall also establish a neighborhood leader mailing list, which shall include the <br />duly elected chairperson of each neighborhood group.

Optional DNS Process. <br />1. To provide for an integrated project review process, the city will use the optional DNS <br />process as set forth in WAC 197-11-355, unless the responsible official determines that <br />another SEPA threshold determination process would more effectively implement SEPA <br />procedures and requirements. A single comment period shall be used unless the <br />responsible official determines that substantial new information regarding the <br />environmental impacts of the proposal has been received during the comment period and <br />that an additional public comment period on the new information is necessary. <br />2. If the city uses the optional process specified in subsection (C)(1) of this section, the city <br />shall: <br />a. State on the first page of the notice of application that it expects to issue a DNS for <br />the proposal, and that: <br />(1) The optional DNS process is being used; <br />(2) This may be the only opportunity to comment on the environmental impacts <br />of the proposal; <br />(3) The proposal may include mitigation measures under applicable codes, and <br />that project review process may incorporate or require mitigation measures <br />regardless of whether an EIS is prepared; and
