All property owners must have a Site Analysis Level II (SALII) completed on their property for any project proposal.

The SALII does not constitute project approval. Your project may be exempt: If one or more of the following apply, the project may be exempt from the SALII process, however, other permits may be required. Please contact the Community Development Department (SCCDD) at (509) 427-3900 if you believe your project may be exempt. If your project is exempt, you will be issued a SALII Exemption letter, after which you can apply for any applicable permits.

The Process 1. Submit a complete SALII application. The property owner must sign the application. 2. SALII review generally takes four business days. 3. During the review of the SALII process, multiple departments will review the application to determine what studies, reports and applications may be required to complete the proposed project. SCCDD staff may conduct a site visit to the subject property and review the proposed development area. SCCDD will then issue a letter of Application & Report Requirements listing all applications, reports, and studies required for the project. Applicants will also be notified at this phase if the proposal is not feasible under current County regulations. 4. In order for a project to receive approval all applications, reports, and studies required for the project as outlined in the Application & Report Requirements listing must be submitted by the applicant/property owner for review and approval. 5. If the applicant has submitted any permit applications (e.g. Building Permit, On-site Septic Permit, etc.) at the time the SALII application was submitted, these permits will not be issued until the review of all other applications and reports in the Application & Report Requirements listing have been completed and approved. DISCLAIMER: The Site Analysis Level II (SALII) Application & Report listing are based on Skamania County code in effect at the time of issuance. If a code change occurs affecting all or part of this project, the project must be reviewed under the new code.
