Urban Growth Area Element
The Growth Management Act says that future growth should be located in areas that already have
public facilities like sewers - Port Townsend or Port Ludlow, or in areas that will have those services in
the future, like Port Hadlock – Irondale.
The purpose of the Urban Growth Area Element is to identify specific uses, densities and development
regulations for the UGA.
What about this element is most important or stands out for you and why?

Current UGA Goals:
1. Encourage a balance of commercial and industrial uses for urban-scale and regional-scale
economic activities within Urban Growth Areas (UGAs).
2. Provide for the orderly development of urban land uses in urban growth areas consistent with
the provision of adequate and feasible urban levels of public facilities and services.
3. Limit the establishment or expansion of urban-level development and infrastructure to Urban
Growth Areas and Master Planned Resorts.
4. Minimize the adverse effects on ground and surface water quality and quantity and protect
aquatic resources and habitats from stormwater runoff generated within the Irondale and Port
Hadlock UGA.
5. Encourage efficient multimodal transportation systems that are based on regional priorities and
coordinated with county and city comprehensive plans.
Which one of these goals is most important or stands out for you and why?
