As the Growth Management Act steadily matures from legislative ambition to regulatory reality, legal, market and political demands continue to shape its implementation. Growing bodies of experience and case law under the GMA bring new insight to previous questions of land preservation and regulatory compliance.

Attorneys, real estate professionals, city and county officials, planning consultants, and anyone else involved in managing growth and development in Washington should consider attending this two day event.

Day 2 focuses on Transfer of Development Rights and their role in managing growth, commentary on a major study of growth regulations and affordable housing, developments along the rural/urban line, transportation planning and the political forces that will shape the GMA.  CLC Senior Vice President of Policy Michelle Connor kicks off the day with a discussion about how to use transfer and purchase of development rights to achieve GMA goals and objectives in comprehensive plan updates.
