requirements and local conditions. Local governments are required to conduct an Evduation and
Appraisal Review (EAR) and update the City's Comprehensive Master Plan accordingly, based on the
outcome of the EAR. The last update to the City's Comprehensive Master Plan (CDMP) occurred in
2003. Based on the outcomes, amendments have been made to the Goals, Objectives, Policies and
Data, Inventory, Analysis of the City's CDMP in order to ensure compliance.
AS the designated Local Planning Agency (LPA), the protocol is for the LPA to adopt a
Resolution recommending approval of the amendments to the City Council and transmittal to State
agencies.
