Re: Comments on the Kittitas County 2026 Comprehensive Plan update <br /> March 2, 2026 <br /> Page 14 <br /> to identify the strategies is now and no specific strategies were identified.37 This <br /> violates RCW 36.7oA.070(9)(e)(i) and RCW 36.7oA.130(1)(a) and (5)(c). <br /> Further, RCW 36.7oA.070(1) provides in part that "[t]he land use element must <br /> reduce and mitigate the risk to lives and property posed by wildfires by using land <br /> use planning tools, which may include, but are not limited to, adoption of portions <br /> or all of the wildland urban interface code developed by the international code <br /> council or developing building and maintenance standards consistent with the <br /> firewise USA program or similar program designed to reduce wildfire risk, <br /> reducing wildfire risks to residential development in high risk areas and the <br /> wildland urban interface area, separating human development from wildfire prone <br /> landscapes, and protecting existing residential development and infrastructure <br /> through community wildfire preparedness and fire adaptation measures." This list <br /> could be developed into specific policies and programs based on that policy. <br /> Thank you for considering our comments.
