If you haven't already, get your comments on the Land Use Code Revision in.  The comment meetings have been well attended, but we still need to take the time to send in written comments.  The most startling thing I learned from the last meeting  (I ended up having to leave before it started, but got the report from my hubby) is that the code was not even written by residents of the county, but by a contracted firm.  Charly Minkler's proposal makes more sense than anything else I've heard--start at the district level and work up.  To me that seems way more logical than imposing something from the top down that was created by people who don't  even live here.

Below are some options for submitting your comments, and you can always do it the old fashioned way and hand deliver them.
