General Information Meeting Instructions

General Information Meeting Instructions

Welcome back!

The General Information Meeting, known as the GIM, is a service provided by Chelan County Community Development at no cost to the customer.  This differs from the pre-application meeting referenced in Chelan County Code, Section 14.08.010.  Those meetings are for projects near-ready for submission and for those, fees may apply.

The customer is encouraged to take full advantage of this service and read the entire contents of this packet prior to scheduling a GIM.  Please provide as much detailed information as possible so that all of your questions can be answered as accurately as possible.  A conceptual site plan and other documents are essential for staff to provide accurate comments during your meeting.

The GIM is the first step in assisting you with your proposed development.  The meeting is structured so that most of your questions can be answered prior to moving into the design phase of your development and spending money unnecessarily.  It is important for you to ask any applicable questions that will assist you with moving forward with your project.  

Information and forms links:

Please fill out the GIM Application, complete your site plan, compile your list of questions and other supporting documentation and email your GIM packet using the email link; cd.build.applications@co.chelan.wa.us

General Information Meetings are held every Thursday from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM (3 meetings maximum) via Zoom and the Permit Technician assigned to your project will send you the Zoom invite once the meeting has been scheduled.   Meetings are scheduled on a first-come-first-serve basis so please be patient if your meeting is not scheduled within one week.

If you have any questions you can email using the email address provided or call Community Development at 509-667-6225.

Sincerely,
The Chelan County Community Development Team
