COUNTY RELEASES FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR GROWTH PLAN UPDATE
Clark County and the cities of Battle Ground, Camas, La Center, Ridgefield, Washougal, Woodland and the Town of Yacolt are proposing to revise their Comprehensive Growth Management Plans to comply with the Growth Management Act 10-year periodic review requirements. The county has prepared a final environmental impact statement (FEIS) in compliance with the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), issued on July 24, 2026. The final environmental review document informs the public of the potential environmental impacts of the preferred growth alternative and possible mitigation measures. Issuance of the FEIS completes the required SEPA process. Agencies shall not act on a proposal for which an EIS has been required prior to seven days after issuance of the FEIS.
Agencies, affected tribes, and members of the public are invited to comment on the FEIS in conjunction with public hearings that will be held on the comprehensive plan update. The county will notify the public when hearings are scheduled in the late summer and fall. There is not a separate hearing for the FEIS.
Document availability:
The FEIS can be found on the Clark County webpage at: https://clark.wa.gov/community-planning/2025-update-eis.
That and supporting documents may also be found in the 4CNA online folder here:
