In June, the City of Olympia approved construction of a proposed 7-Eleven store at the intersection of Harrison and Division on the westside of Olympia. This proposed development is within the Southwest Olympia Neighborhood Association (SWONA) district. SWONA has voted to oppose the development. Numerous residents of NWONA have also expressed opposition in comments submitted to the City. NWONA has not taken an official position on the proposal.
An appeal to the City of Olympia Hearing Examiner has been filed by Dan Leahy, a member of SWONA. Residents of both neighborhoods have contributed to the costs of the appeal.
The hearing before the City of Olympia Hearing Examiner is scheduled for September 7 at the Olympia City Hall at 6:00 PM. The public is welcome to attend.
