2013 Revised Code of Washington
Title 36 - COUNTIES
36.70B Local project review.
36.70B.010 Findings and declaration.
RCW 36.70B.010 Findings and declaration.
The legislature finds and declares the following:
(1) As the number of environmental laws and development regulations has increased for land uses and development, so has the number of required local land use permits, each with its own separate approval process.
(2) The increasing number of local and state land use permits and separate environmental review processes required by agencies has generated continuing potential for conflict, overlap, and duplication between the various permit and review processes.
(3) This regulatory burden has significantly added to the cost and time needed to obtain local and state land use permits and has made it difficult for the public to know how and when to provide timely comments on land use proposals that require multiple permits and have separate environmental review processes.
