BSRE Point Wells has filed an appeal to the Snohomish County Council, contesting the rejection of its high-rise condominium development proposal at Point Wells, near Woodway. The project aims to create about 2,800 residential units, commercial spaces, and public beach access, but has sparked considerable controversy. The Hearing Examiner's decision pointed to conflicts with county codes, particularly regarding building heights and landslide hazard areas. Local residents have expressed ongoing concerns about potential landslides and increased traffic from such a large development. BSRE argues that the county planning department did not allow sufficient opportunity to address the raised issues.

This appeal is part of a long history of attempts to develop the site, dating back to 2011. The upcoming hearing on March 31 emphasizes the critical nature of this issue, as the community remains divided on the project's implications.
