P & CE Reform

King County’s Permitting and Code Enforcement (P & CE) division for Rural lands has gone rogue. The division grants permits for buildings and activities that it shouldn’t, and it doesn’t enforce our Rural land use laws. While these issues have existed for decades, the mismanagement of P & CE and the magnitude and volume of issues has exploded over the last few years. We now have a crisis on our hands and are at risk of losing KC Rural lands forever.
