Community Plan Updates


Pierce County recently updated community plans for the Frederickson, Mid-County, Parkland-Spanaway-Midland, and South Hill communities. Each update included a review of individual community issues and identified issues that are common to all four areas. These plans were updated simultaneously because they make up the majority of the County’s central urban growth area. The major roads through the areas are connected, as are many of the issues facing these communities such as: rapid growth, traffic, jobs, and housing.

News

The Community Plan Updates are now effective as of October 1, 2021.

The Pierce County Code, PublicGIS and CountyView GIS systems are up to date.
