The City of Chelan’s Development Standards provide the essential guidelines and technical specifications for designing and constructing public and private infrastructure within the city. These standards help ensure that growth happens in a safe, consistent, and high-quality manner—preserving Chelan’s character while supporting long-term sustainability. From drafting requirements and construction materials to utility design, erosion control, and bonding policies, the document outlines everything developers, engineers, and contractors need to plan and execute compliant projects.
Whether you’re working on a subdivision, commercial development, or public facility, these standards are your go-to resource for aligning with Chelan’s expectations for infrastructure and development excellence.
We encourage developers, engineers, architects, and contractors to review the standards thoroughly when planning and designing projects in the city. Working together, we can build a community that reflects Chelan’s values and preserves its unique character for generations to come.
