The City of Lakewood has begun a review of the entire City Comprehensive Plan and development regulations and critical areas ordinance that must be completed by December 31, 2024.

Summary
What is the 2024 Periodic Review?
State law requires many cities, including Lakewood, to complete a periodic review of their entire Comprehensive Plan and development regulations, including regulations for critical areas and natural resource lands. Lakewood must complete this review by December 31, 2024, and then future reviews every 10 years after that. City Comprehensive Plans and regulations must be up-to-date with the requirements of the Growth Management Act to be eligible for transportation project grants and loans from certain state infrastructure programs.
What is being reviewed?
Every “element” or chapter of the City’s Comprehensive Plan as well as the development regulation codes that implement them. The City will also be reorganizing the Plan as part of the review to make it more readable. Click on the underlined text here to view the current City Comprehensive Plan.
