COMMITTEE CHARTER
The committee is expected to focus on input, review, and
"buy-in" to carry out the committee's mission, rather
than deliberating on precise details. The committee's
work will conclude with a committee-supported report
recommending to the City Council what should be
included (key elements) in a new plan to manage growth
and achieve an excellent quality of life while ensuring
compliance with state law. The City Council will consider
the committee's recommendations and direct the next
steps to create a new growth management plan.
