TITLE
Ordinance adopting Countywide Planning Policies relating to the Review and Evaluation Program (also known as Buildable Lands) and dispute resolution procedures
BODY
SUMMARY STATEMENT OR LEGAL NOTICE LANGUAGE:
Ordinance adopting Countywide Planning Policies (CWPPs) relating to the Review and Evaluation Program (also known as Buildable Lands) and dispute resolution procedures. The Washington State Legislature approved ESSSB 5254 relating to the Growth Management Act’s “Review and Evaluation” (buildable lands) program requirements in 2017. This legislation imposes new requirements that Whatcom County must address, in close coordination with the cities, over the next several years (see RCW 36.70A.215). One of these requirements is to amend the CWPPs. The seven cities have concurred with the proposed CWPPs. The County Council has the final authority to adopt CWPPs.
