Lynnwood Partners with Washington State Department of Commerce on Regulatory Roadmap

The City of Lynnwood has partnered with the Washington State Department of Commerce to create a Regulatory Roadmap. The Roadmap assists those who want to locate a manufacturing facility in Lynnwood by providing the information they need in a user friendly format. The Roadmap helps streamline the permitting application, eliminates regulatory surprises, and saves processing time and money.   

The Regulatory Roadmap Initiative, developed by the Department of Commerce, is a semifinalist in the Innovations in American Government Awards Competition sponsored by Harvard University. “The Regulatory Roadmap initiative advanced from a pool of more than 500 applications from all 50 states, and was selected by the Innovations Award evaluators as an example of novel and effective action whose work has had significant impact, and which they believe can be replicated across the country and the world”, as stated in press release from the Department of Commerce.

In keeping with Lynnwood’s Community Vision to be a regional model, the City will launch their Manufacturing Roadmap soon to provide this excellent resource to manufacturers interested in Lynnwood. The Roadmap furthers Lynnwood’s commitment to customer service and process improvements.
