Dear Friends,

On August 12 , there will be a public meeting in Council District 9 on proposed zoning regulations for marijuana-related businesses in King County. This meeting is one of series of four meetings the King County Department of Permitting and Environmental Review (DPER) is hosting to discuss a proposed ordinance that will set the standards for the zoning of these types of businesses within unincorporated King County. Read more on these meetings here.

Monday August 12, 2013 from 6 pm – 9 pm,

Maple Valley Public Library, 21844 SE 248th Street, Maple Valley

The proposed ordinance would allow indoor growing, limit outdoor growing to rural and agricultural areas, and allow processing and retail sales in certain business zones. I would urge you to attend this meeting if you have questions or concerns on this topic.

King County officials will be on hand to answer questions and lay out the details of this proposed legislation as well as taking public comment. The Executive will use the comments and input from the public at these four meetings to craft the final version of this ordinance for submission to the King County Council later this month.

Please feel to e-mail me at reagan.dunn@kingcounty.gov or call my office at (206) 296-1009 if you have any questions regarding this or any other matter involving county government.

Best regards,


Reagan Dunn
King County Councilmember, District 9
