Paine Field passenger terminal to get grading permit
EVERETT — Snohomish County is preparing to issue a grading permit for a passenger air terminal at Paine Field, a step that could mark a final turning point in the contentious fight over allowing regular commercial flights at the county-run airport.
A formal notice was expected to be published Sunday. The county determined that the proposed 29,000-square foot terminal with two gates would have no significant environmental impact.
The county plans to accept comments on the decision through March 13.
The county is not requiring a full environmental impact study under the land-use decision. The mitigated determination of non-significance, as this type of decision is known, could require special measures to address traffic and other impacts.
