Description

Cougar Mountain Associates (Cougar Mountain) challenges King County's denial of its subdivision application. The County denied the application primarily because of the potential adverse environmental impacts that could result from the development of the proposed subdivision. We hold that the County erred in the procedure by which it denied Cougar Mountain's application. The County failed to set forth precisely the significant environmental impacts it considered in denying Cougar Mountain's application. Furthermore, the County failed to either describe mitigating measures available to Cougar Mountain or state that the potential environmental impacts could not be mitigated. We reverse the decision of the trial court upholding the County's denial of Cougar Mountain's subdivision application and remand the cause for further consideration.
