Lacey’s 2025 Comprehensive Plan Update provides a 20-year vision to guide growth, development, and public investment through 2045. It's our roadmap for land use, compact development, housing diversity, economic vitality, and climate resilience shaped by extensive community input. The plan meets the requirements of Washington State's Growth Management Act (GMA), responds to new state laws, and our communities’ evolving needs and priorities.

Key goals include promoting compact, walkable neighborhoods; expanding diverse and affordable housing; advancing multimodal transportation options; and protecting natural resources. The Plan also supports economic vitality by preserving commercial areas and encouraging local job creation. Through updated land use classifications, a revised Future Land Use Map, and coordinated annexation strategies, the City ensures infrastructure alignment and growth readiness. Together, these efforts position Lacey for a vibrant, inclusive, and resilient future.

Within each of the goals, a set of policies will direct action. These policies are the focus of this review. The video below provides instructions for how to comment on these policies.
