Comprehensive Plan 2017-2037

Comprehensive Plan 2017-2037

Chelan County was created in 1899, covering approximately 2,994 square miles with an estimated population of 76,830 (2017 estimate from the Office of Financial Management). The County is led by three elected officials serving on the Board of County Commissioners, each representing a specific area of the County Commissioner Districts 1, 2, and 3.

Chelan County’s first Comprehensive Plan dates back to 1958. This visionary document provided guidance to decision makers about what residents hoped to see in their community. In 1990, the State of Washington passed legislation creating a new framework for local land use planning and regulation, commonly referred to as the “Growth Management Act (GMA).” The GMA established specific goals and requirements that all local comprehensive plans and development regulations are to achieve. The GMA, as amended, is found under Chapter 36.70A of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW).
