Get StartedCurrently, there is no requirement for the County to study how new or amended legislation would affect land supply and construction costs. If adopted, this Charter Amendment would require the Executive to conduct and publish such a study before any change to land use or construction sections of the county code could be adopted. This amendment does not prohibit the County Council from adopting any particular change to land use or construction law.
The Whatcom County Charter Review Commission has proposed an amendment to the Whatcom County Charter to require the Executive to publish an analysis of how land supply and construction costs could be affected by new legislation. This measure would amend Article 9 of the Charter to require the Executive to publish a credible analysis of how land supply and construction costs could be affected before the County amends any land use or construction section of the county code.
