Participants in this third informational meeting will be asked to
comment on draft findings related to the study area’s land use
conditions and participate in a break-out session intended to assist in
developing the future land use map for the study area. Comments and
participation in the break-out session will assist the Joint Commissions
in further developing the plan in a manner that best captures the values
or ideas considered most important by area residents.  Future meetings
will be held to provide residents the opportunity to see the progression
of the planning process. Prior to final plan adoption by City Council
and the CountyCommission, a public hearing will be held offering
residents yet another opportunity to comment on the plan.
 
A copy of the draft Land Use (existing conditions) chapter will be
available for advance public review after May 20, 2010on-line at

City or County Planning Department offices.

purpose of this joint effort. The Planning Commissions invite all
affected or interested residents to participate.
