The Grays Harbor County Comprehensive Land Use Plan will outline how and where land use and development in unincorporated Grays Harbor County could occur over the next decade. It will set long-term goals for land and resource use, to make the community vision a reality. These goals turn into actions, laws, and guidelines that affect decisions on key issues such as housing needs, critical areas, transportation, local economic development, jobs and services, and future land use mapping and zoning.

The Grays Harbor County Comprehensive Land Use Plan will not affect the current plans for the Cities. Cities (incorporated areas) are responsible for land use planning, zoning, and development within their jurisdictions, while Grays Harbor County is responsible for all unincorporated areas (outside city-limits).
