After receiving public comment during a July 19, county council work session, the county has extended the deadline for public comment to Wednesday, Aug. 2.
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.
