Background
What will Island County look like in 2045? That is the question Island County’s next comprehensive plan will be answering. By 2045, Island County is anticipated to have 102,639 residents, that is more than 15,000 new residents.
A comprehensive plan guides growth over a 20-year period and determines how and where growth will occur. The goals and policies in a comprehensive plan should reflect a communities’ values.
Island County’s Comprehensive Plan update is due by December 31, 2025. Throughout 2024 we will be asking for feedback to inform the update process. Share your thoughts and help shape how our community will grow.
No prior experience is needed – you don’t need to be an expert in comprehensive plans to speak up. Maybe you are brand new to Island County, or maybe you are a lifelong resident, either way - we want to hear from you!
