 Annual
Comprehensive Plan Amendments 2013 Docket
The Growth Management Act provides that “each comprehensive land
use plan and development regulations shall be subject to continuing
review and evaluation” and requires Skagit County to annually
accept petitions for amendments or revisions to our Comprehensive
Plan, in addition to the comprehensive periodic update. Skagit County
implements this requirement through Skagit County Code Chapter 14.08,
which describes the process for such amendments.
