Thurston County’s Board of County Commissioners (BoCC) approved a resolution to adopt the 2023 Thurston County Comprehensive Plan amendments at a meeting yesterday, December 12.
The agenda document states that the Thurston County Comprehensive Plan describes the long-term vision for Thurston County and sets the direction for the county's growth over the next 20 years.
Community Planning and Economic Development Senior Planner Maya Teeple described the latest changes in the plan:
