Staff will release the PUBLIC DRAFT of the Butte County General Plan 2030 'Setting and Trends Report'. This document will provide the existing setting for the EIR for Butte County General Plan 2030. Please note that when the document is released (it is 19 chapters and about 1,000 pages) on our website on Friday, August 03, 2007, staff is requesting the public's participation in the review of this document to assist us in making it as accurate as possible so that when it is adopted in September 2009 with the General Plan 2030, it will have had significant public review and comment. CDs will be available for free upon request to Dan Breedon. Printed copies will be available at print shops (for the cost of copying) throughout the county.

Monday, October 15, 2007
Butte County will sponsor the 2007 General Plan 2030 Economic Summit. It will be an all day event held at the Sierra Nevada Brewery in Chico. The agenda will include an overview of Economic Development and its connection to Butte County General Plan 2030. The Economic Summit will provide new information as well as several interesting speakers. You will also have a chance to provide some input into shaping Butte County's future. The cost will be around $50, which will include a light breakfast and lunch. Mark your calendar now and stay tuned for further information.
