Hearing examiner's order holds up Cathcart park and ride

CATHCART — Plans for a park and ride near Cathcart Way and Highway 9 are on hold but set for another hearing in April.

The property is owned by Snohomish County, which negotiated with developer D.R. Horton to build the park and ride. It was part of the deal to build 286 townhomes on former county-owned property near the future parking lot that some neighbors opposed.

In January, county planning staff sought a 30-day continuance of the hearing to address proper drainage regulations, spokesperson Jacob Lambert wrote.

But hearing examiner Peter Camp remanded it back to the county and developer to resolve the stormwater drainage system. It initially was prepared under urban zoning regulations but the property has rural zoning, according to the examiner’s order.

Oddly for an area zoned rural it's quite developed from Highway 9 all the way to I-5.

A lot of traffic from Snohomish uses Cathcart Way to access I-5. A park and ride would give some of them an alternative to driving.
