JOOOO6 <br /> HEARING EXAMINER DECISION <br /> RE: AP-#2-89 4/27/89 <br /> Page 6 <br /> said determination. However, neither this ordinance, nor any <br /> other ordinance of the Everett Municipal Code, provides specific <br /> notice requirements of preliminary determinations. <br /> 17 . The City of Everett submitted that they "cured this" by <br /> providing property owners notice even if it was beyond the origi- <br /> nal 10 day period. The notice provided was the reaffirmation of <br /> the City' s preliminary decision. <br /> 18. The City submitted that EMC 18 . 80 . 010 does not require that <br /> appeals be filed within ten (10) working days, but that they may <br /> be filed within ten (10) working days . According to the Argument, <br /> this grants the City discretion in determining if, in fact, <br /> appeals and notices are acceptable. <br /> 19 . The City submitted that EMC 2 .23 . 120 (A) (1) (c) gives the <br /> Hearing Examiner jurisdiction over the appeal. Under this section <br /> the Planning Deparment determined that the February 3 , 1989 <br /> reaffirmation was an administrative determination concerning the <br /> City of Everett' s boundary line adjustment ordinance. According <br /> to the City the cited section of the EMC allows ten (10) working <br /> days from the date of the administrative determination in which to <br /> file an appeal. <br /> 20. Appellant Kellerman' s representative submitted that appeals <br /> to Hearing Examiner for a boundary line adjustments must be made <br /> within ten (10) days from the date on which the preliminary <br /> decision was rendered. According to the representative "rendered" <br /> means the communication of the decision, and not the issuance of <br /> the decision. Thus, according to the argument, until the decision <br /> is made known by communication, the preliminary decision has not <br /> been rendered. The representative claims there must be notice <br /> before the rights of the parties can be effected. <br /> 21. Appellant Kellerman' s representative submitted that his <br /> client was aggrieved and will suffer direct and substantial impact <br /> from the proposed boundary line adjustment and has standing to <br /> appeal. <br /> III. Fact Relating to Boundary Line Adjustments <br /> 22. Admitted at the hearing as Exhibit 13 was the boundary line <br /> adjustment map.
