Thurston County Comprehensive Plan

2010-2011 Proposed Comp Plan Amendments (Docket)

Background

Thurston County provides “early and continuous” public participation when making changes to the Comprehensive Plan and the development regulations that implement it. Annually, the public is invited to participate in the County’s “docketing” process, where proposed amendments to the Plan or regulations are listed and prioritized for the following year’s work. (The County also has a docket for changes to its development regulations.)

The public is often a source of suggested changes to the Plan or regulations. In addition, county staff regularly organize public forums, committees, task forces, and meetings with community organizations to discuss amendments. Finally, every proposed amendment to the Plan or development regulations has at least one formal public hearing to gather public comment. For more information about how you can participate, view the Comprehensive Plan Amendment Fact Sheet.

2010-2011 Preliminary Docket Available for Review

At the beginning of each year, staff prepares a list of proposed amendments for the Board of County Commissioners. The Board analyzes the merits of proposed amendments based on state mandates, county priorities, joint planning, and public comment. (This "tiered" system is explained on the 2009-2010 docket page.)

The required 20-day written public comment period for the 2010-2011 Preliminary Docket of Comprehensive Plan Amendments closed on August 5, 2010.
