Demand for <br /> public transportation services is also projected to grow. <br /> • Additionally, there would be increased demand for water,storm water facilities, <br /> telecommunications,solid waste,fire protection and law enforcement,schools, and court <br /> services. <br /> • Site specific development proposals are reviewed for their water and storm water impacts. Fire <br /> districts ensure sufficient operations and equipment to meet state laws and county standards. <br /> School districts and utility districts are responsible for preparing capital plans. <br /> • While demands for these facilities and services will increase, the Capital Facilities Element of <br /> the Comprehensive Plan identifies needed improvements over the planning period(2017- <br /> 2037). <br /> Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s)are: <br /> implementing the Comprehensive Plan, Transportation,Capital Facilities and Utilities Elements <br /> would allow the County to accommodate new growth and provide established levels of service for <br /> these facilities and services. Site specific development proposals will also require SEPA review <br /> individually as well as development permit review. Both processes will require an assessment of <br /> transportation and utility impacts. <br /> 7. Identify, if possible,whether the proposal may conflict with local,state,or federal laws or requirements <br /> for the protection of the environment. <br /> The proposed Update does not conflict with local,state,or federal laws or requirements for the <br /> protection of the environment. The purpose of the proposed amendments are to bring the Kittitas <br /> County Comprehensive Plan and implementing regulations into compliance with the Growth <br /> Management Act. The proposed amendments protect the environment by establishing appropriate <br /> densities and uses in rural areas and implementing regulations that better protect water quality <br /> and natural habitats. <br /> Future project-specific development proposals will be reviewed pursuant to SEPA and the County <br /> Environmental Policy(KCC Title 15)to identify potential environmental impacts and applicable <br /> mitigating measures. <br /> SEPA Environmental checklist(WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 26 of 26 <br />
