SUMMARY STATEMENT OR LEGAL NOTICE LANGUAGE:
The State has allocated $450,000 to Whatcom County for state fiscal years 2020 and 2021 (July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2021) to address the new “review and evaluation” (buildable lands) program requirements under the Growth Management Act adopted by the State legislature in 2017 (ESSSB 5254). The County is entering into an interagency agreement with the State of Washington to receive this state funding. This state funding will be used to reimburse County staff time, city expenses, and consultant assistance on the review and evaluation program.
