The continuation of the public hearing with the Okanogan Planning Commission will be held APRIL 11th! Please arrive at 6pm. The Planning Commission will continue to hear comments on the proposed zoning codes and follow up with their deliberations so it is very important to make our voices heard this final time. The Planning Commission is still accepting written comments at this time as well! The meeting is tentatively scheduled to be held at the Agriplex in Okanogan, 175 Rodeo Trail Rd, Okanogan, WA 98840. However please check county's website for updates and confirmation of location if indeed it does change! Thank you for everyone who came out last night to OVERWELM the Okanogan Planning Commission! Citizens packed the house, filling the room to capacity. Many people had to stand outside in order for the meeting to be allowed to continue. This is what it looks like when citizens make their voices heard!  Citizens showed solidarity with verbal testimonies by holding up green cards.  The Planning Commission addresses the room filled to capacity with citizens.  Overflow outside of the County Admin building.  Red floods the room as citizens strongly disagree with spoken testimony.  Citizens eagerly listen from outside the building.
