RCW 36.70A.130 Comprehensive plans -- Review -- Amendments.
(1) Each comprehensive land use plan and development regulations shall be subject to
continuing review and evaluation by the county or city that adopted them. Not later than September
1, 2002, and at least every five years thereafter, a county or city shall take action to review and, if
needed, revise its comprehensive land use plan and development regulations to ensure that the plan

Any amendment or revision to a comprehensive land use plan shall conform to this chapter, and
any change to development regulations shall be consistent with and implement the comprehensive
plan.
(2)(a) Each county and city shall establish and broadly disseminate to the public a public
participation program identifying procedures whereby proposed amendments or revisions of the

(i) The initial adoption of a subarea plan;
(ii) The adoption or amendment of a shoreline master program under the procedures set forth in

located within each city and the unincorporated portions of the urban growth areas. The county
comprehensive plan designating urban growth areas, and the densities permitted in the urban growth
areas by the comprehensive plans of the county and each city located within the urban growth areas,
shall be revised to accommodate the urban growth projected to occur in the county for the succeeding
twenty -year period. The review required by this subsection may be combined with the review and
evaluation required by RCW 36.70A.215. [1997 c 429 § 10; 1995 c 347 § 106; 1990 1st ex.s. c 17 §
