Commission reviews Parks and Recreation element; inventory updates and wording changes proposed
Summary
The Planning Commission reviewed the draft Parks and Recreation element (Chapter 11) of the comprehensive plan, noted inventory edits and terminology changes, and asked for further review at a future meeting; commissioners proposed policy additions and refinement of EV charging language in right-of-way sections.
The La Conner Planning Commission reviewed the draft Parks and Recreation element (Chapter 11) and discussed inventory updates and policy language.
Staff reported that the parks inventory had been adjusted to reflect commission requests, including replacing a reference to the "Boys and Girls Club" with "Braves Club" and removing a concept plan for Maple Park. Commissioners said the parks commission has not completed the element and that the chapter may return for additional review. Several commissioners proposed language additions and policy clarifications, including considerations for EV charging stations and right-of-way parking; one commissioner suggested adding language to explicitly address EV chargers in the right-of-way and to tie historic-district considerations to code requirements.
Commissioners asked staff to circulate submitted suggestions by email and agreed to consider them at an upcoming meeting; staff indicated the chapter may come back before the commission one more time for further edits.
