FYI regarding the Bichler appeal hearing on February 29.

Ms. Alder
I sent a message to the Hearing Examiner, but have not gotten a response yet.
I will go ahead and put the public notice in the paper and send my staff report to the hearing examiner today. I am out
of town next week, so please contact Mr. Causseaux through his assistant Jenny Pelesky at
i.pelesky @mchlawoffices.com next week with the date you can have your information to him. I will leave it to Mr.
Causseaux if he will have adequate time to review the case, or if he will need to reschedule the hearing.
If there are any questions for the City of Yelm while I am out, please contact Karen Bennett at (360) 458 -3835.
Thanks and have a great weekend.

Thank you Tami.
Our client is looking for materials helpful to provide to Mr. Causseaux in our brief. It is not likely we will have the
needed documentation before Monday morning although Mr. Bichler is currently attempting to locate records and
information.
Please let me know if you have questions or if I can assist in other ways at this time.
Kindest regards,

Thanks for sending this email. Leslie is no longer on our staff so please communicate with me and those copied on this

Leslie
The appeal of administrative decision you submitted also included a request for the waiver of the appeal fee. The
waiver is subject to City Council approval, pursuant to Resolution 561, that states that the appellant shall apply for the
waiver at the same time as the appeal is filed. The fee waiver request has been scheduled for council review at the
January 12, 2016 City Council Meeting.
I will let you know the Council's decision on Wednesday, January 13, 2016.
Have a safe and happy new years.
