Laurelhurst released a statement denying responsibility for conditional use permit of Seattle Children’s.

From https://test.laurelhurstcc.com/

“May 01, 2026

The Laurelhurst Community Council (LCC) is committed to advocating for the health and safety of the community, city, state and region. We highly value and appreciate the lifesaving care Seattle Children’s and first responders have provided patients for decades.

The Seattle Children’s Hospital is currently subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) – established more than 30 years ago with the City of Seattle. This Conditional Use Permit stipulates that helipad access be guaranteed for life-threatening emergencies, but not for non-urgent transport.

LCC is not a party to the Conditional Use Permit and was not contacted regarding any concerns with the terms of this agreement.

LCC fully supports helipad landings for all children requiring intensive and lifesaving care, and is fully committed to actively participate in any discussions between the City of Seattle and Seattle Children’s Hospital to ensure the hospital continues delivering world class service and care to patients.”

Paging u/Placentaur to see if they can provide some evidence either for or against because they originally broke the story in the post here:
