Summary

Planning staff said the city received a grant to hire a consultant for a general-plan update (next steps after the 2020 plan) and asked council to review a regional hazard-mitigation map hosted by Mountainland Association of Governments.

Andrew Spake (planning department) told the council the city's general plan — last updated in 2020 — is due for a recommended five-year update and that the city has a grant to retain a consultant to help with the process. He asked council members to engage in the review and said staff will email a map link for comment.

Spake described the regional hazard‑mitigation planning led by the Mountainland Association of Governments and asked elected officials to use the map tool to tag critical facilities and hazards. He emphasized land use, transportation and disaster mitigation as planning topics that will be considered during the update.
