About the Board
Based on Chapter 36.93 of the Revised Code of Washington, the King County Boundary Review Board was formed in 1967 and provides independent, quasi-judicial review of proposals for creation of or changes to boundaries by cities and by special purpose districts (e.g., fire districts, and water/sewer districts) within King County. Through this review process, the Board ensures logical growth in the communities of King County.
The Board offers a unique opportunity for citizens to participate in review of creation of or changes to boundaries of cities and special purpose districts before a neutral hearing body. The Board serves to provide application standards, review protocols, review criteria, review processes, review timelines, legal counsel, and administrative responsibilities. In addition to RCW 36.93, the Board operates under its Organization and Rules of Practice and Procedure.
