1.       Is the contractor licensed, bonded and insured?

 

2.       Does the contractor have employees?

June Workshops to Introduce Draft Shoreline Goals, Policies & Regulations
June 23 & 29
6:00 - 9:00 PM

CityLogoBW

Join other residents and property owners to view and discuss Draft Goals, Policies, and Regulations that will govern uses, activities and development along the Sammamish River, North Creek and Swamp Creek.

 

On June 23rd & 29th, the City will host two shoreline workshops.  The purpose of the workshops is to introduce residents and property owners to draft Shoreline Master Program (SMP) Goals, Policies, and Regulations which will govern uses, activities, development, and construction occurring along the City's shorelines.

 

What are Bothell's shorelines?  They are the Sammamish River, North Creek, and, if annexed to the City, Swamp Creek, plus associated floodplains, wetlands and all lands within 200 feet of these water bodies.  Whether people work along, live along, or use shorelines for recreation, economic development, or fishing, all citizens have a stake in the future of shoreline areas and the provisions which govern them.
