The City of DuPont is updating the Old Fort Lake Subarea Plan, originally adopted in 2018. The Subarea Plan is an element of the City of DuPont Comprehensive Plan, a Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) planning document. The Vision, Land Use and desired Community Character for the Subarea Plan will be updated, new Design Standards prepared, and a State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Planned Action Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) completed.

The updated Plan will include the following chapters:

  • Introduction and Objectives
  • Overview and Community Context
  • Vision and Guiding Principles
  • Land Use
  • Open Space and Recreation
  • Cultural Resources
  • Community Character
  • Utilities
  • Transportation

The Plan Update is the result of a City Council moratorium on development in the subarea. See the recent extension of the moratorium here:  Moratorium Renewal
