Belfair Planned Action EIS

Survey

Recent investments are anticipated to contribute to rapid growth in Belfair. In addition to the County’s grant to extend the sewer system, a new freight corridor, or “bypass,” is planned. Recognizing these changes, the County is refreshing the 2004 Belfair Plan and creating a Planned Action Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and ordinance to guide growth that reflects the community’s vision for the future.

This survey is intended to ask you about the Belfair area and help shape alternatives to be examined in the EIS. This survey should take about 15 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!
