The work session consisted of presentations and discussions regarding the Council review of the Shoreline
Master Program (SMP). The Shoreline Master Program will regulate the area 200 feet from the ordinary high
water mark through the City and potential annexation areas. The Work Session focused specifically on Section
7: Shoreline Environments and Buffers.
Council has determined the review of the SMP document will focus on particular issues needing guidance and
discussion rather than reviewing the document page by page. Additionally, Council will give further direction
to staff (i.e.: requests for information as each issue concludes).
As a result of the Work Session, several items will be forthcoming to Council:
A chronology of public comment and/or input opportunities on the SMP to date.
Section 7 Incorporation of a reference that identifies the City- approved profile.
Written summary from Jim Morrow on the three themes the he identified from comments on the SMP (as
discussed at tonight's work session), and identification of where this information can be located in the SMP
binders.
Written summary from Bob Sterbank about FEMA discourse and biological opinion as discussed in
tonight's work session.
In addition, Council work session questions as well as individual Council questions asked directly to staff will
be added to the working matrix with responses.
