FoSV and Futurewise Opposition to the KC Motion for Stay of GMHB Decision May 4, 2022

On May 4, 2022 FoSV and Futurewise opposed the King County motion that requested a stay of the GMHB decision that invalidated Adult Beverage Ordinance 19030 until the appeal is heard. A ‘stay’ is essentially a reversal of the opinion for a period of time. This request was made because while the County is out of compliance with GMA, state and federal loans and grants are at risk. Holding up loans and grants is the mechanism Washington State uses to require actual compliance with GMA by municipalities. In this case the County is saying $40m is at risk.
