Moratorium on Sub-divisions
Yesterday the King County Council, led by our representative Councilmember Sarah Perry, voted to place an emergency 7-month moratorium on new sub-division applications in Fall City, while the county can study our rural character and recommend more long-term protections and zoning controls. This does not stop the current sub-divisions already underway, but it does stop any new additional applications from being submitted.

The supporters of Fall City Sustainable Growth made this happen - your donations have funded the legal support required for navigating the county. There is much more work ahead, but it is a VERY big deal to get this level of engagement and interest in our town at the council level.
