Page 5 <br />Appendix F. Land Capacity Analysis. <br />While we appreciate that critical areas were mapped and the resulting area was removed from the <br />analysis, it is uncertain if all Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas (FWHCA) were <br />included. In addition to streams and their associated Riparian Management Zones (RMZ) that are <br />shown on the maps, additional FWHCA should be mapped including all WDFW Priority Habitat <br />and Species mapping including shrubsteppe and Biodiversity Areas and Corridors. These are not <br />currently included in Kittitas County Compas mapping, and we would like to clarify if they were <br />included in this analysis. Further, the two maps included in the appendix only show areas around <br />the existing jurisdictions of Roslyn, Cle Elum South Cle Elum, Ellensburg and Kittitas. We <br />recommend including a map that shows the analysis at the county scale to be able to review and <br />comment on unincorporated county areas. <br />Thank you again for the opportunity to comment. Please contact me at 509-607-3578 or <br />Scott.Downes@dfw.wa.gov to set up a time to discuss these comments. <br />Sincerely, <br />Scott Downes <br />Regional Land Use Lead <br />
