THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Centralia is deciding whether to lift or modify a moratorium on warehouse and distribution buildings over 250,000 sq ft in the city and UGA. Options include allowing larger facilities only in Port Park 1 via zoning changes and an interlocal agreement with Lewis County and the Port of Centralia, or keeping/expanding the size cap. This is a policy and planning stage that will shape where and how future large logistics, industrial, and related infrastructure projects can be built, with follow-on needs for studies, design, permitting, and construction support once a path is chosen.
Port of Centralia submitted a mitigation proposal on June 17, 2026; city staff responded July 9, 2026. Outcomes will govern future large warehouse/distribution permitting in Port Park 1 and other industrial zones.
