OPEN HOUSE
Thursday, September 26, 5:30–8 PM
Hobart Community Church, 27524 SE 200th St, Hobart.
The Greater Maple Valley/Cedar River (GMV/CR) Community Service Area (CSA) is the subject of the next Subarea Plan in the King County Unincorporated Area that will be developed. The Area Council territory makes up most of the GMV/CR CSA, so this will be the Subarea Plan for our local area. Subarea plans focus on locally specific policies that address long-range community vision over the next 20 years. Scope varies based on community priorities, while maintaining consistency with the King County Comprehensive Plan (KCCP). The development of Subarea Plans is centered on community engagement. Early steps in developing a Subarea Plan include listening to interests raised by community members across the subarea and working with community members to develop a vision that guides development of the plan.
