Public Participation Program

A comprehensive and varied public outreach program has been developed for the Ocotillo Wells General Plan Update to maximize opportunities for stakeholders to provide input and feedback on the development of the General Plan. This program includes a visitor survey, stakeholder interviews, public workshops, fact sheets, and a project website with information and opportunities for online input. Opportunities for public participation are provided throughout the General Plan Update process.

Input collected during the public participation program will be documented in summaries, which will be posted to this website when complete. The input summaries will include the names of people representing established stakeholder organizations and agencies who have submitted comments, but will not include the names of individuals who do not represent stakeholders in order to protect privacy. However, during the environmental review process (CEQA), the names of all individuals submitting comments will be listed unless anonymity is requested by the individual supplying the comment.
