WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR DEVELOPING A GREEN-INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN?
A series of public meetings in different parts of town will be the first step in this process. Collecting and distilling public comment will follow. A group of stakeholders (members of the public, the development community, environmental groups, non-profit and community groups, business people, and state and federal agencies, and City staff) will research the situation and report to City Council. Halff Associates, who developed the Parks & Recreation Departments master plan, will use this input, along with their professional knowledge and skill to devise this plan. City Council will hold additional public hearings before the formal adoption of any policy or plan.
