County delays action on Shelton plan to next year The Mason County Commis- sion has voted to delay 4mtil next year a vote on the proposed Shel- ton Urban Growth Area Sub- Area Plan. A decision not to decide on the plan until January 15 at the earliest was made last week af- ter commissioners decided they didn't have the documents they need to proceed. Work on developing the plan began in 2002, and the next year the county and the City of Shel- ton signed a memorandum of understanding that outlined the comprehensive planning process. After some delays, the county completed an update to the coun- ty comprehensive plan by late 2005. This included a new popula- tion allocation for Shelton for the 20-year planning horizon. As a result, the city reassessed the ca- pacity of designated residential lands to ensure that the residen- tial growth built into the draft plan aligned with the new popu- lation target. It then determined that the residential development capacity in the plan was much greater than the allocated popu- lation and needed to be reduced. The boundary of the urban growth area has been refined to address the situation of a num- ber of split parcels. Last year the city began a new phase of the planning process with an updated capacity analy- sis and a draft of a future land- use plan. Earlier this year the city hosted a series of four open houses to spread information about developments to the pub- lic. Issues identified during this process are reflected in changes to the draft UGA plan and land- use plans. City officials conducted public hearings about the proposed plan in May and October and have de- cided to wait for adoption until after the county has completed its public process. , ,,,,,,, ,, DISCOUNT HEATING OIL $3.129 gal 400 gallon rate" Senior Discount and Payment Plans Automatic Fill up 1-800-339-249 !
