  1. Staff Comments – Randy Ealy/Mike McAllister

 

CM Ealy distributed work programs from Hood River, Hubbard and Silverton identifying similar tasks to what this committee will be doing. 

 

CP McCallister stated that this review requires some very technical work.  Scott Campbell, Assistant Planning Director of Clackamas County, has experience writing work programs and has offered to provide his services through the County.  The County has just gone through this whole process and a lot of information for the area was collected at that time. 

 

CP McCallister stated that the Hood River work program is very similar to the one Estacada needs and they could use this as a guide for their deliberations.

 

The committee discussed the process and timeline for creating the work program.   The first step is to find out how much information is already available for this process.  CP McCalllister stated that he could pull together some of the information, such as population and economic information, and put together the OARs needed to evaluate the plan.
