City of Issaquah Land and Shore Committee

City of Issaquah Council Committee, Land and Shore, February meeting’s agenda includes Issaquah Highlands’ Replacement Regulations, also referred to as End of DAs (for Development Agreements) AB 7523.

Determining the regulations that will replace the Development Agreement is a year long process, almost complete. However, a couple topics remain unresolved. They are vesting (which determines whether developers work with the old Development Agreement or new replacement regulations apply), minimum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) and parking requirements. The latter two regulations are intended to prevent suburban style, parking lot dominated development.
