State Policies. In 2023, the RCW was updated to include a section requiring the Washington State Department of Commerce to establish a consolidated permit review grant program. Xxxxxx would be awarded to local governments that have taken measures to actively consolidate their permit review process. This includes “issuing final decisions on residential permit applications within 45 business days or 90 calendar days.”64 To verify that the local governments receiving this grant continue to meet this standard, quarterly reports with the maximum decision timelines must be sent to the Department of Commerce. A grant program has also been created to encourage local governments to convert their permit review process from paper filing systems to online systems. Final legislation is expected in August 2024 to evaluate the need, feasibility, and barriers to a statewide digital permit review system.
State Policies. Increasing middle housing rather than detached single-family homes helps to promote affordability by increasing the number of units available at different sizes and price points. Washington State has a Housing Trust Fund (HTF) to support affordable housing.59 The Housing Preservation Program allocates funds under the HTF to facilitate housing improvements and preservation for multifamily rental projects that are part of the HTF. For the 2021-2023 budget, $20 million was allocated to the program.60 However, these funds may not be used to create new units. Funding for affordable housing also comes from the Affordable Housing for All Surcharge.61 The surcharge is a fee charged at the county level when recording a legal document, with 40% of the funds allocated to the state and 60% to the local government. All of these programs assist with the upkeep and availability of affordable housing in Washington.
