The Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners hereby enters the following findings of
fact in support of extending this Ordinance for a period of six-months pursuant to RCW
36.70A.390.
1. The Board of County Commissioners adopted the Interim Control Ordinance (ICO) on
August 28, 1998 to provide interim development regulations to ensure land use decisions
were consistent with the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan adopted on that same day and
with the intent of the Growth Management Act (GMA).
2. The Board intends this Ordinance to serve as an interim measure subject to repeal and
replacement at the time the County adopts final development regulations to fully implement
the County's adopted Comprehensive Plan.
3. The Board of County Commissioners has contracted with Earth Tech, an engineering and
planning consulting firm, to prepare the County's development regulations, to be known as
the Jefferson County Unified Development Code (UDC). The target date for adoption of the
UDC is December of Fiscal Year 2000.
4. On February 22, 1999, the Board extended the effective date of the ICO for a period of six
months in compliance with the requirements contained in Chapter 36.70A.390 RCW.
5. On August 23, 1999, the Board extended the effective date of the ICO for another period of
six months in compliance with the requirements contained in Chapter 36.70A.390 RCW.
6. On February 7, 2000, the Board extended the effective date of the ICO for another period of
six months in compliance with the requirements contained in Chapter 36.70A.390 RCW.
7. To ensure land use decisions continue to be consistent with the County's Comprehensive Plan
and the intent of the Growth Management Act, the BOCC finds that it is necessary to extend
the effective date of this ordinance for an additional six-month period.
8. The maintenance of effective and responsible County government reqUIres immediate
extension of the effective date of the ICO.
