As part of the Growth Management Act (GMA), all counties and cities must designate and protect environmentally critical areas including Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas and wetlands (RCW 36.70A.172 <https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDEsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vYXBwLmxlZy53YS5nb3YvcmN3L2RlZmF1bH QuYXNweD9jaXRlPTM2LjcwYS4xNzIiLCJidWxsZXRpbl9pZCI6IjIwMjQwNDE1LjkzMzgzNDAxIn0.igWDxGXV2-ICCEOqnAbGL-RQaK5NKHk2e7oWzSll6oE/s/451240783/br/240782930589-l> , WAC 365-195-900 to 925 <https://lnks.gd/l/ey JhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDIsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vYXBwLmxlZy53YS5nb3Yvd2FjL2RlZmF1bHQuYXNweD9jaXRlPTM2NS0xOTUiLCJidWxsZXRpbl9pZCI6IjIwMjQwNDE1LjkzMzgzNDAx In0.bUPv0JnDmLyb9naEgh656w9x81ZAOLNjzI-LSfOojQ4/s/451240783/br/240782930589-l> ).

Updates to CAOs can be highly technical. One of the key requirements to effectively update your local CAO is a review of the Best Available Science (BAS) provided by regulatory agencies like WDFW.

The BAS and CAO review processes can be substantial. Fortunately, all jurisdictions have up to an additional year after their Comprehensive Plan updates are due to complete their CAO updates. We encourage cities and counties to take this extra time to carefully “review and, if needed, revise" their CAOs consistent with updated BAS and GMA requirements.

Intended to enable meaningful participation at a local level, Commerce has budgeted $2 million of Climate Commitment Act funds for this grant program with expected award amounts between $35,000 and $100,000 for the initial year of the grant program (July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025). Successful applicants will engage in local comprehensive planning processes occurring within cities and counties as a result of funding support.

The new grant program is intended to support updates to comprehensive plans and development regulations that protect ecosystems, improve water quality, and provide incentives to improve the functions that protect and enhance vital salmon habitat. Partnering with the Puget Sound National Estuary Program Stormwater and Habitat Strategic Initiative Leads, the grant will provide $2.2 million in statewide salmon recovery planning grants and an additional $1 million in Puget Sound-focused funding to local governments and tribes. These grants support the Governor’s statewide salmon recovery strategy and Strategic Initiative Lead investment priorities. In addition to these amounts, up to $2 million in funding administered by Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's Habitat Strategic Initiative Lead will be layered on top of other grants. The funding will provide monitoring and adaptive management practices to improve implementation, consistency, and effectiveness of permitting for critical areas protection in the Puget Sound.

This tool has been used over the last year, and it has become clear to us that the model would be more appropriate if it did not automatically allocate housing for households with incomes below 50% of area median income (AMI) outside of urban growth areas (UGAs). This type of housing generally requires high-density zoning, which is not generally allowed in rural areas. In response, Commerce is developing a new optional allocation method that will direct affordable housing to cities and unincorporated UGAs, where it is more feasible and can be supported with appropriate zoning, infrastructure, and services. This method will also provide counties with the option to allocate a portion of future housing needs to individual urban growth areas (UGAs) and in limited circumstances, other areas such as Local Areas of More Intense Rural Development (LAMIRDs), master-planned resorts, and tribal areas. This new method and accompanying guidance will be available in June 2024. If you are a 2025 or 2026 county working on allocations, we encourage you to reach out to Laura Hodgson <mailto:Laura.Hodgson@commerce.wa.gov> with questions on how to consider this new information in your periodic update work. <https://content.govdelivery.com/attachments/fancy_images/WADOC/2019/04/2537294/line2_original.jpg> Outside our agency Transportation Commission seeks input on the plan for Washington’s transportation future The Washington State Transportation Commission is updating the state’s plan for transportation over the next 20 years.
