The 2009 Update to the Comprehensive Plan, like previous updates, has a large public input effort incorporated throughout the planning and policy development process. This Plan is for your community and your comments have a direct effect on what actions the County undertakes and the goals that are set for the next 5 to 10 years!
There are many opportunities over the 22-month process to contribute to the development of the plan and make sure your voice is heard. Subscribe to the JCC Planning and Development e-mail subscription list to receive updates about these upcoming events and more!
How can you participate?
Review Community Participation Team and Steering Committee meeting materials on the web. Then visit the Comprehensive Plan blog (coming soon!) to see what team members are saying about the direction of the Plan and how they are responding to your comments.
Or, you can submit your own comments, ideas, and visions by using our online public input form.
Many public awareness events, including listening stations set-up throughout the County to solicit your comments on the Comprehensive Plan process, will be going on over the next 22-months.
Invite a member of the Community Participation Team to your organization to give an introduction to the Comprehensive Plan process, timeline, and ways you can get involved. Contact Christy Parrish at 253-6685 to schedule a presentation.
