Illahee Community Plan Update - 6/17/08

CAG Review Work Completed on 6/16/08. The Illahee Community Plan Citizens Advisory Group (CAG) completed their review of the Plan on Monday evening (6/16/08).

Next Meeting Late July? There will be not be another meeting until the Plan changes are incorporated by the county and presented to the community in about four to six weeks. At that time the community will have an opportunity to see it in its near complete state and make any last corrections before it goes to the Planning Commission for their review.

Review Opportunity Before the Meeting. The county will complete their efforts about a week before the final review meeting in order to give the community enough time for it's review.

6/16 Meeting CAG Actions Later. The CAG voted on a number of issues during the 6/16/08 meeting that will be forwarded later when the county completes the official minutes of the meeting.

Thanks to the Present and Past CAGs!! Thanks to all those who participated in this phase of the project, and a special thanks goes to all those who worked on the past draft documents that made this review much easier.

Support Needed. When the near final document is completed, please plan on looking it over carefully, and if possible, plan on attending the final review meeting. This is the subarea plan that will control and influence future land use decisions in Illahee for years when it is supported by the community and approved by the county. We have been advised that at the very end of subarea plans there are always vocal opponents who will show up at the county public meetings to voice their opposition. We hope that will not be the case in Illahee, but if so, it needs to be countered by overwhelming community support.

Watch for further updates.
