The Skyway-West Hill Subarea Plan Public Review Draft begins with an introduction that explains why King County is planning for the future of Skyway-West Hill, explains the central role of equity and social justice in the plan, and says “the ultimate goal of the Skyway-West Hill Subarea Plan is to make real, equitable improvements to the quality of life for everyone who lives, works, and plays in Skyway-West Hill.”
The introduction describes Skyway-West Hill's planning history, including:
- 1994 West Hill Community Plan, that this Subarea Plan will replace.
- Skyway Park Community Vision (2008)
- Community Agenda for Revitalization (2009)
- Community Center Visioning Process and Report (2014)
- Skyway West Hill Action Plan (2015), and
- Skyway-West Hill Land Use Strategy (2020).
There is a brief description of the Community Needs List process that was begun in 2020 and how it is associated with but a separate effort from the Subarea Plan.
Next is a short explanation of how the Subarea Plan chapters are arranged. With the exception of the introduction, vision, and community context chapters, each chapter follows this format:
- Background and context

- Subarea-specific policies
The introduction section concludes with an explanation of what equity and social justice mean to King County and that the County is committed to being:
- Inclusive and collaborative,
- Diverse and people focused,
- Responsive and adaptive,
- Transparent and accountable,
- Racially just, and
- Focused upstream and where needs are greatest.
