Beginning Sept. 3, Snohomish County will begin its second series of meetings geared toward defining a vision for its rural lands.
In June, the county’s Planning and Development Services Department hosted a set of meetings to collect input on how rural lands should be managed or developed in the future. Residents responded to the question: How should the county’s rural areas look, feel and function?
The department collected more than 1,000 comments from Snohomish County residents, and more than 200 people attended four meetings held in Arlington, Maltby, Monroe and Everett.
This time around, planners will discuss with participants the common vision for Snohomish County’s rural lands and whether that vision is supported by current policies and regulations. If not, what are the opportunities and process for change?
Meetings will be held as follows:
•
Wednesday, Sept. 3, 6:30–8 p.m.
