The Greater Maple Valley/Cedar River (GMV/CR) Community Service Area (CSA) Subarea Plan is now being developed. The Area Council territory makes up most of the GMV/CR CSA, so this will be the Subarea Plan for our local area. The Subarea Plan focusses on locally specific policies that address long-range community vision over the next 20 years. A King County Subarea Planning team has been working with the Area Council for many months and ensuring the Subarea Plan is centered on community engagement. Also, for the King County GMV/CR CSA Subarea Plan website, please see: GMV/CR CSA Subarea Plan (https://publicinput.com/greatermaplevalley).
Area Council Committee (Environment, Growth Management, and Transportation) meetings were held on January 22, 2025, to discuss Objectives, Issues, and Policies for the Subarea Plan. Members of the King County Subarea team attended each meeting providing a wealth of maps, data, and expertise.
