Title 130 WAC Last Update: 9/26/13 COMMERCE, DEPARTMENT OF (TRADE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT) Chapters 130-10 Public records—Disclosure. 130-14 Child care facility fund rules. 130-16 Industrial development—Revenue bonds—Financing eligibility. 130-20 Washington motion picture competitiveness program. 130-30 Projects of statewide significance. WAC 130-30-010 Agency filings affecting this section Purpose. (1) The department of commerce may designate certain private sector investments as projects of statewide significance to expedite the permitting and environmental review process. These projects will bolster the economy at both the local and state levels. (2) The purpose of this chapter is to prescribe the form and manner of the application to be used in requesting designation as a project of statewide significance. [Statutory Authority: RCW 43.157.030. WSR 13-20-064, § 130-30-010, filed 9/26/13, effective 10/27/13.] Link: http://app.leg.wa.gov/WAC/default.aspx?cite=130-30&full=true I believe it means that the State has determined that the existence of Pacific Raceways property as a motor sports related complex is financially significant to both the local and state governments. An organization wishing to continue the vision of the Fiorino family would receive preferential treatment over an entity wishing to, say, rezone it and build housing. Find a Google Earth map of the place and zoom out. It's an extension of the family sand and gravel operation. Legend has it that when the locals tried to get the city to close it due to noise, the owners showed up at the meeting and threatened to move in their rock crusher and run it 24/7 if the track was closed.
