- Title
- Limited Area of More Intensive Development [Washington (State)--Grant County]
- Description
- Some rural areas in Grant County are currently characterized by "more intensive development" either in terms of the types of land uses or density and intensity of activities. Such areas may, for example, be developed at urban densities, possess urban services, and contain a mix of uses that are traditionally considered more urban than rural. The Growth Management Act recognizes the need to maintain and protect the county's rural character and existing land use patterns. They permit counties to define "limited areas of more intensive development" subject to a number of guidelines and criteria (RCW 36.70A.070(5)(d)). These amendments permit land uses that are compatible with the existing rural character of such lands, provides for a variety of rural densities and uses, and provide an opportunity to harmonize or reconcile Grant County's historical land use patterns with the requirements of the GMA.
