The Clallam County Planning Commission today will gather input from West End residents on a draft Shoreline Master Program update.
A public hearing will be at 1 p.m. at the Sekiu Community Center, 42 Rice St.
A second public hearing today will begin at 6 p.m. at the state Department of Natural Resources office, 411 Tillicum Lane in Forks.
Another hearing will be at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 18 at the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.
The first hearing was conducted in Sequim on Feb. 4.
State-mandated Shoreline Master Programs generally apply to land within 200 feet of lakes, marine waters and rivers and streams with a flow of at least 20 cubic feet per second.
They also apply to wetlands, floodplains and critical areas.
Public comment will assist the Planning Commission in making a recommendation to the three county commissioners, who will ultimately adopt a shoreline plan.
The November draft Shoreline Master Program update is available on the Clallam County website, www.clallam.net, under “Current Issues.”
