Castle Valley council fills two seats on Planning and Land Use Commission
Summary
The council appointed Jeff Whitney and Matthew Gross to two vacancies on the Planning and Land Use Commission; Marie Hawkins, a 20-year commissioner, will not reapply and will be honored for her service.
The Castle Valley Town Council approved two appointments to the Planning and Land Use Commission on June 17, filling seats vacated this month.
Chair said Marie Hawkins would not seek reappointment after 20 years of service and the council will arrange a gift to thank her. Jeff Whitney re-applied and Matthew Gross, a resident of about one year who lives on Miller Lane, was interviewed and recommended by the chair. Members approved the two appointments by voice/roll call and discussed onboarding logistics such as issuing an email address and administering the oath at their first commission meeting.
Why it matters: Planning commission members review applications under local ordinances and make recommendations that shape development decisions.
What happens next: staff will provide new commissioners with email access and orientation; the chair indicated new members will be sworn in at their first meeting.
