Planning Commission/Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review
Planning Commission Roster
The
City’s
Comprehensive Plan is an
important document in that it contains the City’s goals and policies
that guide and manage new growth within the City. This plan is subject
to continued review and evaluation. However, the Growth Management Act
limits updates to the plan to once a year (there are some exceptions) in
order to allow citizens to have meaningful participation in reviewing
any proposed changes.
