(1) An application shall be made to the planning department per SMC 17.157.060.

(2) The planning department sets August 31st of any given year as the deadline for plan amendment requests to be considered for decision the following year; however, a request will be accepted at any time. Those amendment requests received after the established deadline will not be considered by the commission for that year. Proposed plan amendments consisting of changes to the city’s capital facilities plan and program (CFP) will generally be accepted later than other proposed amendments because of the CFP’s relationship to the city’s budget or its modification. Amendments consisting of changes to the city’s CFP will be received no later than December 30th. (Ord. 1249 § 9, 2009; Ord. 1110 § 3, 2002; Ord. 1025, 1998).
