Covington remodels — plateau flood/CMZ diligence, family-home mix

Covington Municipal Code regulates development in special flood hazard areas and channel migration zones under floodplain provisions (CMC 16.15.050 and related) — a valley-floor / creek-basin constraint set late-1990s South King plateau cities share differently than Seattle ridges. This Board of Project Stewardship hub covers family kitchen/bath and bonus-room additions under Covington Community Development review (not King County DPER for in-city parcels).
