Shape the Future of the Dallesport Subarea: A Message from the County Planning Department

Introduction

Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. The Klickitat County Planning Department is currently updating its Comprehensive Plan, which establishes official land-use, zoning, and infrastructure policies to guide the County for the next twenty years.

Because the Dallesport Subarea is highly unique, and is pressured by development we are reaching out to you to ensure your community's needs are accurately represented.

Your individual feedback will be used to write the official Dallesport Subarea description and twenty-year vision in our updated Comprehensive Plan. This survey is completely confidential and takes less than five minutes to complete.

Thank you for your participation in the survey, and for creating the future of your community.
