RCW 47.85.050Finding—Local land use review procedures.The legislature finds that local land use reviews under chapter 90.58 RCW need to be harmonized with the efficient accomplishment of necessary maintenance and improvement to state transportation facilities. Local land use review procedures are highly variable and pose distinct challenges for linear facility maintenance and improvement projects sponsored by the department. In particular, clearer procedures for local permitting under chapter 90.58 RCW are needed to meet the objectives of chapter 36.70A RCW regarding department facilities designated as essential public facilities.[ 2015 3rd sp.s. c 17 s 6.]NOTES:Effective date—2015 3rd sp.s. c 17: See note following RCW 47.85.005.
