The draft plan and instructions on providing comments are on the county’s website at https://clark.wa.gov/councilors/vancouver-lake-management-plan-project. The website also has background information including a link to webinar materials which provide a high-level overview of the project.
Public comments received by 5 p.m. Aug. 2 will be reviewed and included in an appendix to the final VLMP.
