Land Use Ordinances
Land use decisions impact
us all. They affect our water, community
character, wildlife and environment, public safety, roads, and economy. Thurston County's land-use
regulations are intended to promote sound, coordinated development and
the most appropriate use of land, and to conserve and restore natural
resources that make Thurston County such a special place to live.
Thurston County's land-use ordinances are rooted in Thurston County's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan is a policy document that provides the overall framework and vision for growth in Thurston County; land-use ordinances are a way of making that vision a reality.
