The EEC is hosting a Workshop, open to the public, on the City’s Critical Areas Ordinance (CAO). The results of the Workshop will be used to provide public input to the CAO update that the City must complete by December 31st as well as recommendations for a Critical Areas Program Amendment to the City’s Comprehensive Plan.

Workshop attendees will:

  • Explore what’s working and what’s not in protecting the City’s Critical Areas and the unique Edmonds environment.
  • Develop recommended Code revisions for the Critical Area Ordinance Update.
  • Develop recommended revisions to other City Code that affects implementation of the protective measures in the CAO.
  • Develop recommendations for critical area policies and a Critical Areas Program Amendment to the City’s Comprehensive Plan.

The Edmonds Environmental Council is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that seeks to bring balance between needed development, environmental protection, and compliance with State laws. The EEC was formed in response to a growing need for “informed” voices to help educate residents and City officials on the perils of ignoring the human and natural environment.
