Alger V. City Of Mukilteo

At the end of 1978, the Algers purchased unimproved property in Mukilteo zoned as single family residential. The Algers planned on building a large condominium project on the land, and wanted the City of Mukilteo to rezone the land accordingly. On September 8, 1980, the Mukilteo Planning Commission, in a taped hearing, approved of the rezone, after a heated debate with a group opposed to the rezone, the Mukilteo Improvement Association. This rezone approval had to be ratified by the Mukilteo City Council.
