Boundary Review Boards were created in 1967 by the
legislature in part to"...provide a method of guiding and controlling
the growth of municipalities..."(
RCW
36.93.010). There are twenty such boards in the State of
Washington. The Board is a quasi-judicial, administrative body
empowered to make decisions on such issues as incorporation,
annexation, mergers, disincorporations, etc., by cities, towns and
special purpose districts. It can approve, deny, or modify a proposal.
Its decisions are final unless appealed to the County Superior Court.
When that occurs, the appeal is on the record. That is, the Court
reviews the exhibits, transcript and board decision rather than
conducting a new hearing.
