LAKE COUNTY – The public is invited to attend a series of upcoming meetings on the recently completed draft of the Shoreline Communities Area Plan.

The Lake County Community Development Department will host two town hall meetings this month to introduce the draft plan.

The first town hall meeting is scheduled to take place from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday, March 23, in the Rose Room at the Lucerne Senior Center, 3985 Country Club Drive, Lucerne.

The second meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, March 24, at the Clearlake Oaks Moose Lodge, 15900 E. Highway 20, Clearlake Oaks.

During these meetings Community Development Department staff, along with members of the Shoreline Communities Area Plan Advisory Committee, will be present to provide the public with information concerning changes in policies, zoning and land use designations that are proposed by the Draft Shoreline Communities Area Plan.

The advisory committee and the Community Development Department developed the draft area plan.

When adopted, the plan will provide a policy framework and plan to guide future growth within the planning area.

The planning area includes the communities of Lucerne, Kono Tayee, Paradise Cove, Glenhaven, Clearlake Oaks, Spring Valley, the unincorporated areas north of the city of Clearlake including portions of Clearlake Park, and all of the outlying rural areas around these communities to the eastern county line.

The Draft Shoreline Communities Area Plan is available for review on the Web at www.co.lake.ca.us.

Copies of the draft area plan are also available at the county libraries, and at the Community Development Department, located on the third floor of the Lake County Courthouse.
