Staff report:
In 2012 — to protect Issaquah's existing neighborhoods and natural environment — the City adopted the Central Issaquah Plan (effective April, 2013) to guide the long-term evolution of our community's existing commercial core into an urban center. The Plan includes 10 Districts within Central Issaquah, each with a specific vision. During a July 2016 check-up on the Plan, the City assessed whether projects that have been built, approved or are currently under review, met the community's vision for Central Issaquah.
