COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN COMMI77EE ( CLUPC ) <br /> In November 2D01 , you received Information about the creation of a Comprehensive Land <br /> Use Plan Committee .

Initially we had hoped to have this <br /> comrnhtge already uinderway. However with the addition of Mr. Tempia as Comprehensive <br /> Planning Supervisor, we are ready to move ahead with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan <br /> Committee as directed by the Board of County Commissioners . <br /> A scheduled maeting with tho BOCC can set forth the format of the Committee and <br /> the start of Public Outreauh . <br /> Specifically , the Comprehensive Planning staff would present various planning strategies , <br /> techniques , and tools , and the Committee would assist staff in developing the pros and cons <br /> of the different scenarios . They would riot be a racommending committee , but an impo ant <br /> group offering their perspective on the Comprehensive Plan pools , objectives , and policies <br /> as appl led countywide . Primarily the Planning Department would provide staffing for the <br /> Committee with specific � - development of rtaln 0lemsnts by the Economic Developmant <br /> and ERCD D 0epartments , <br /> The Committee will maet wah staff over the next months with one meeting prior to the <br /> community outreach forums , one during the forums , and one after the forums are <br /> completed . The community outreach forums will not suggest a speolfic planning policy <br /> direction , but offer a range of growth . management opportunities as presented by staff. <br />
