Two appeals filed against proposed Costco site
By Associated PressROSEBURG, Ore. (AP) -- Two new appeals have been filed against a proposed Costco Wholesale site in Roseburg. The appeals were filed by the attorney representing former Douglas County Commissioner Joyce Morgan. Corrine Sherton, a land use attorney from Salem, filed a notice of intent to appeal with the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals, and then filed a second notice to bolster the case. The first notice said Morgan would challenge a Douglas County Planning Department pre-application worksheet approved last month for a 12-pump fueling station on an 18-acre site. The second notice seeks a hearing before either the Planning Commission or an appointed hearings officer. The notice claims that development of a Costco store will generate "significant and unplanned additional traffic."
