Medical Lake sets final comp plan public meeting June 28

The city of Medical is poised to ink its updated Comprehensive Plan, or comp plan, according to a PUBLIC NOTICE.

The plan is the guiding document that will be used to drive Medical Lake’s growth and direction for the next decade.

Citizens have until 5 p.m., Friday, June 28, to review and comment on the new plan.

The Planning Commission will be holding a public hearing at 5 p.m., Thursday, June 27, at Medical Lake City Hall to review the proposed update and to make a recommendation of approval to the City Council.

The state’s Growth Management Act (GMA) requires municipalities to update their plan every 10 years. Medical Lake’s last Comp Plan effort was in 2007.

The Planning Commission has been working, reviewing and discussing the city’s future that will be outlined in the plan, although much of the commission’s work is focused on bringing the current comp plan into compliance with largely technical amendments to the GMA.
