Summary

The La Conner Planning Commission voted to approve the final draft of Chapter 5 (land use/ending-of-use elements) of the town’s comprehensive plan and will forward it to the Town Council for formal adoption; commissioners discussed next steps for the remaining elements and state review timelines.

The La Conner Planning Commission voted to approve the final draft of Chapter 5 of the town’s comprehensive plan during its meeting.

Commissioners said the chapter reflects recent edits, including material requested by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, and they agreed to forward the chapter to the Town Council for formal adoption and the state-required review process.

Commissioners moved and seconded the motion to approve Chapter 5; the motion carried and staff indicated the approved chapter will be submitted to Commerce to begin the state’s 60-day review. Commissioners noted the climate element will follow a slightly altered timeline because the town is not required by the state to adopt a climate element at the same time as other parts of the plan.

The commission recorded the action as approval of the chapter and indicated the Town Council will consider formal adoption. Individual roll-call votes were not recorded in the transcript; the motion passed on a voice vote.
