Kittitas (pronounced 'KITT-i-tass') County is located in central Washington State. It spans from the lush forested Cascade Mountains to the upper Yakima River Valley plains and the Columbia River.
Throughout the SMP update process there will be several opportunities to engage in review and discussion of the Shoreline Master Program.
Opportunities for public participation will include an open house during the 60-day review period for the Final Draft SMP, and public hearings prior to adoption of the Final SMP. Members of the public may attend any of these meetings or can access meeting materials and general background information on the SMP update by following the links below. This public participation plan will be adjusted as needed to meet federal, state or local social distancing requirements related to COVID-19. Due to COVID-19 social distancing requirements, Kittitas County is preparing for alternate open house ideas, and will utilize a variety of other engagement opportunities, such as a community survey, the Periodic Review website, and public comment periods.
