The Washington State Department of Health is holding a public hearing Thursday, Dec. 29, regarding the Spokane Treatment Center’s proposal to establish an opioid treatment program at 2322 196th St. S.W. in Lynnwood.
The public hearing will begin at 4:30 p.m. and will provide an opportunity for the public to comment on the proposed program as part of the licensing process required by state law. This is not an educational event or question-and-answer session.
This hearing is free and open to the public.

I don’t think this project should move forward. It will not benefit the city. Instead, because it is so close to the shopping center and kids school, it may significantly affect the kids and residents’ life and happiness. It should be stopped.
