Developer Files Federal Civil Rights Suit Against City of Lake Stevens


Is this the picture of man whose civil rights have been infringed upon? Developer Galen Holmquist of Monroe stands on the edge of his proposed development off Grade Road in the summer of 2006.

Local developer Galen Holmquist has filed a federal civil rights suit against the City of Lake Stevens.

According to Washington Court records, Holmquist originally filed a claim in Snohomish County Superior Court, but the case was moved to the Federal District Court Docket on April 22.

I don't have any other information at this time, but if I had to bet, this is probably sour grapes over the City not letting him build ten billion houses on the property he's gobbled up in the Walker Hill/Grade Road area.
