Metro Looking for Comments on New Urban Growth Map

The Metro Regional Government is looking for public comment on it’s new map for urban and rural reserves.  This past week Metro staff uploaded this new map for public comment. Explanatory information about the map can be found at this section of the Metro website where you can sign up to get involved and read about public comment participation. In early 2010, you will have an opportunity to attend public open houses to view maps, learn about the rationale behind the boundary lines and read the intergovernmental agreements that will formally establish the reserves system.

Final maps and inter-governmental agreements are expected to be approved in February, 2010.
