The Eastsound Planning and Review Committee (EPRC) holds its monthly meetings on the first Thursday of the month. This Thursday, Sept. 2, it will change locations to meet at the Eastsound Fire Hall from 3 to 5 p.m.
The agenda calls for filling empty positions, updates from County Council Members Gene Knapp and/or Richard Fralick, solid waste, Critical Areas Ordinance (CAO) update, Road Transfer to Public Works, and new issues.
Chair Gulliver Rankin described the EPRC goals to create better communication with the County Council on:
- 2009/2010 priorities;
- Pending ordinances affecting Eastsound
A request to change the Uniform Development Code (UDC) to remove the airport overlay zone from the Gerard Property will be presented by Francine Shaw.
John Campbell and Lisa Byers will address the EPRC on affordable housing with the goal of understanding the context and issues of housing in Eastsound in developing a housing element.
EPRC Member Audrey Moreland will give an update on the “Streetscape” plan for Eastsound; EPRC Member Patty Miller will give an update on the “A” Street to Main Street and Mount Property stormwater treatment project.
Finally the EPRC will review 2010 priorities in light of county budget constraints and refocus on one priority. They will also identify possible priorities for 2011.
The public is encouraged to attend the meeting. Public Comment on matters not on the agenda is scheduled for 3:15 p.m.
