Public Comments

The Land Trust’s work includes making public comments to local councils, planning commissions, and state and federal agencies on certain planning and development proposals.  We do this in the spirit of supporting planning that is protective of our natural resources.  Public comments are one of the ways we protect conservation investments that we make to benefit the public.
