By Representative Reams

     On page 20, after line 26, insert the following:

     "(3) In lieu of the procedures under subsection (2) of this section to approve a fully contained community by altering an established urban growth area, a county may allocate initially part of its twenty-year growth management planning population projection to and include in its initial urban growth areas fully contained communities where the criteria stated under subsection (1) of this section will be met through project approval.

(4) The criteria for designating an urban growth area for fully contained communities are those set forth in this section, and not the criteria in RCW 36.70.110."

EFFECT:  Allows a county to initially set aside part of its 20-year growth management planning population projection for a fully contained community, rather than altering an established urban growth area to accommodate a fully contained community.  The criteria for designating urban growth areas shall not apply to designating fully contained communities.
