What’s being proposed in the 2026 Comprehensive Plan update
Per the City’s hearing notice and SEPA DNS staff report, the July 16 hearing addresses a “2026 Update to the 2024–2044 Comprehensive Plan” that would:
- Incorporate the PROSA Plan as a new Parks and Recreation element.
- Update annexation-related maps and figures, primarily reflecting a recent annexation.
- Rename single-family zones to “Neighborhood Residential”.
- Document PSRC certification conditions in Appendix A.
- Evaluate proposed land-use and zoning map amendments connected to specific properties.
PROSA integration and the Parks & Recreation element
The SEPA DNS staff report describes the PROSA integration as adding PROSA into the Comprehensive Plan as a standalone Parks and Recreation element. The staff report also says this integration extends RCO grant eligibility for the City.
Rezones tied to the 44th Ave W properties
For the 44th Ave W areas, the staff report describes two rezones:
- 8425 44th Ave W and 8411 44th Ave W: changing the land use designation from Industrial to Commercial/Mixed Use, and changing the zoning from Planned Industrial to Planned Community Business.
Rezoning for Lot 5 at the waterfront
For the waterfront, the notice and SEPA staff report identify Parcel 29043300402000 (Lot 5) and describe a land-use and zoning map action that would:
- Change the land use designation from Parks and Open Space to Commercial/Mixed-Use, and
- Rezone from Open Space to Waterfront Mixed-Use.
The SEPA DNS staff report frames this as a non-project action with no current development proposed. It also notes that if the Lot 5 rezone moves forward and is developed, the City would make an assessment at that time regarding potential hazards from an old refueling station.
PSRC certification conditions in Appendix A
The SEPA staff report says the update would add notes in Appendix A to capture PSRC certification conditions. The referenced PSRC certification recommendation document describes its own scope as being organized into a statement of certification and applicable conditions.
