Sounds great – thanks Tate! Josh – I assume this is all in the very early stages, do you know when you anticipate finalizing adoption? We will try to work this through as quickly as possible for you all, but it’s new territory for us too. Additionally, if you make any large adjustments to this draft code please let me know. As always, I appreciate your continued collaboration, and I hope you have all had an enjoyable summer. I feel like sweater weather is already upon us. Cheers!

External Email Good morning Garrett, We would be happy to take input from WDFW as the data center code continues to be drafted. You can send comments to Joshua Warwick (cc'd here). Thanks, Tate Tate Andrie | Planner | O: 509.477.7141 Spokane County Planning | http://www.spokanecounty.org/BP

Good morning Tate, I saw from the agenda last week that Spokane County is starting to draft data center ordinances – is this something WDFW can provide input on? Our offices are starting to discuss this more, as they seem to keep popping up across the state and can have fairly large habitat impacts. I attached the draft ordinance for your convenience. Thanks and hope you’ve been well – cheers!
