WAC 365-195-630   Amendment.  (1) Each plan should provide for an ongoing process of evaluation to ensure internal and interjurisdictional consistency of comprehensive plans and continuous consistency of development regulations with such plans. This evaluation should be an integral part of the amendment process.

     (2) Each comprehensive plan shall contain provisions governing its amendment. Amendments to the plan shall not be considered more frequently than once every year, except in cases of emergency. The amendment process shall include a requirement that all proposed amendments in any year be considered concurrently so that the cumulative effect of the various proposals can be ascertained.

     (3) Each county that designates urban growth areas shall review, at least every ten years, its designated urban growth areas, and the densities permitted within both the incorporated and unincorporated portions of each urban growth area. In conjunction with this review, each city located within the county shall review the densities permitted within its boundaries, and the extent to which the urban growth occurring within its urban growth area has located within its boundaries and the extent to which such growth has located within the unincorporated portions of the urban growth area. The urban growth areas and densities permitted in urban growth areas shall be revised to accommodate the urban growth projected to occur in the county for the succeeding twenty-year period.
