The city of Washougal is set to adopt a new shoreline management program update that will provide a more specific list of allowed uses and development standards within city shorelines, according to Mitch Kneipp, the city’s community development director. (Courtesy of the city of Washougal)
Plan aims to protect shoreline environment, promote water-oriented development and increase public access and recreational opportunities
City of Washougal leaders are reassuring homeowners that new development standards included in the city’s shoreline master program update should not have any major impacts on individual property owners.
