Planned Rural Residential Development (PRRD)Much of rural Thurston County is zoned rural residential resource 1 dwelling per 5 acres or 1 dwelling per 2 acres. However, there is a regulation, called "PRRD," which allows development of higher densities. Thurston County Comprehensive PlanComprehensive Plans guide Thurston County’s physical development and identify what transportation and other public facilities are needed to meet the needs of population growth. These plans are the framework for zoning and other development regulations, which must be consistent with comprehensive plans. The Thurston County Comprehensive Plan deals mainly with rural areas of the County (land outside of urban growth areas that surround cities). The 2009 preliminary docket of comprehensive plan amendments is currently under review by the Board of County Commissioners.
