Envision Skagit 2060 holds first community meeting, January 24

SKAGIT COUNTY - On Monday, January 24 at 7:00 p.m., Envision Skagit 2060 will hold its first community meeting to gain public input on the future of Skagit County. Join your neighbors at the Edison Elementary school library and learn about Envision Skagit 2060, share your vision, ask questions, and get involved in shaping the future of Skagit Valley.

After a brief presentation on the Envision Skagit 2060 project and its progress by Envision Skagit Citizen Committee members and project staff, the meeting will open up for a comment period where the community can voice their vision for the future of Skagit Valley. Public input is a large part of the Envision Skagit 2060 process and vital to shaping the Citizen Committee's recommendations for the future of Skagit Valley.

Envision Skagit 2060 is a cooperative community effort designed to help shape Skagit Valley for the next 50 years. The project's Citizen Committee will develop and recommend a broadly-supported 50-year plan for Skagit Valley by drawing on broad community input and public recommendations.

The meeting will take place from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. in the Edison Elementary school library, located at 5801 Main Street, Bow.
