Call For Public Participation, City of Gold Bar SMP Open House, Dec. 4th at 5:30pm

CALL FOR PUBLIC PARTICIPATION

City of Gold Bar, Washington

The City of Gold Bar is updating the Shoreline Master Program (SMP) for the City’s shoreline along the Skykomish River, Wallace River, and May Creek. The SMP determines the types and uses of shoreline development, provides for public access, and increases opportunities for restoration.

The SMP update must be completed by June 30, 2019. Revision is necessary to keep the SMP current with the rules and guidelines of the Department of Ecology, the City’s Comprehensive Plan, and the City’s development regulations. The proposed revisions to the SMP are minor procedural changes that will make the document more accessible for users and more consistent with state regulations.

All are invited to learn more about the SMP update at a series of events from December 3rd through December 7th. At each event, information about the proposed revisions will be available for review and there will be an opportunity to provide feedback. The City seeks information from residents and other stakeholders about the proposed updates for the SMP and about their experience with shorelines in Gold Bar.
