What are my opportunities for input into the planning process?
Planning Commission meetings and Board of Zoning Appeals meetings are always open to the public and allow for public input on the issues or cases being discussed. Additionally, Subdivision Advisory Committee meetings allow for public comment on many development review proposals early in the development process {check the Bureau of Development Review’s web site}. Input on the development of Comprehensive Plans and the County Master Plan is encouraged at various points throughout the process. If a comprehensive plan is being updated in your area, notices of progress on the plan and opportunities for input will be mailed to each household in the study area. Additionally, notices will be posted in local newspapers and updates will be available through the Plannning Department’s page.
