SeaTac’s SMP, a land use plan for local shoreline areas applies to Angle Lake and 200 feet landward of the lakeshore. SeaTac is updating its SMP to:
- Address recent amendments to state laws and guidance
- Make it easier to navigate for staff and the public
- Ensure consistency with other City plans and regulations
This specific periodic update of the SMP will not:
- RE-evaluate the ecological baseline of the shoreline
- Extensively assess no net loss criteria other than to ensure that proposed amendments do not result in degradation of the baseline condition
A succinct summary of the proposed City shoreline master program amendments available for review HERE.
