2024 Comprehensive Plan Periodic Update
Now till the end of 2024, the City of Enumclaw will be working on a periodic update of its Comprehensive Plan. The 2024 Comprehensive Plan will be a road map that will guide the decisions that city officials and staff will make over the next 20-years. During this update the City will be seeking the community’s help to revise the city’s future vision and Comprehensive Plan’s goals and policies.

Project and Reference Documents
Every county and city in the state is required to conduct a periodic update of its comprehensive plan and development regulations, though the obligation varies on whether the jurisdiction is fully or partially planning (RCW36.70A130.1)
All cities and counties are expected to have their comprehensive plans and development regulations (including critical areas ordinances) updated by June 30 of their deadline year, with the exception of King, Kitsap, Pierce, and Snohomish counties, which have a deadline of December 31, 2024 for the current cycle. A jurisdiction may complete the periodic update process before its deadline, but this does not change the deadline for its next periodic update cycle established by law.
