General Plan Update - Behind The Scenes

Land Use Plan Community Survey

Planning Staff is working with the Consultant Team to finalize the online community survey (English and Spanish versions). During this time of sheltering-in-place, this is a great way to keep the community involved in the General Plan Update. Responses to the survey will help craft our approach to the Community Workshop once we are able to engage the public in person. More information to come!
