Urban Self Storage sues over moratorium

 

Seattle-based Urban Self Storage has filed a lawsuit against the city of Bainbridge Island, Washington, claiming the city unlawfully adopted a moratorium that stopped its development plans, according to Bainbridge Island Review.

Since 2016, Urban Self Storage has been in the process of designing and gaining approval for a self storage facility on Day Road on the island just west of Seattle. At the city council’s November 26 meeting the council voted 5-2 in favor of a six-month moratorium on self storage development. The moratorium vote was added to the agenda without notice to the public or a public hearing. At the time, Urban Self Storage’s project was the only one making its way through the approval process.
