VISIONING (for full comments, view the meeting recording)
Consultants Logan Simpson reviewed where the plan is in the process, with Phase 1
being complete and firmly into Phase 2, visioning outreach and community choices.
Shaping the ideas collected from statements received will help draft the Vision and
Guiding Principles of the Comprehensive Plan.
There was a lengthy group discussion on forming the Visioning Statement and Guiding
Principles. These principles include access to outdoor recreation, land management,
responsible growth, affordable housing, infrastructure, and transportation. It was
requested that both committees think it over, review notes and share input.
Visioning meetings will continue through January.
