Monroe County holds capital improvement info meetings

The Monroe County Planning Board will hold three information meetings on the county's proposed Capital Improvement Program for 2006-2011. The meeting in this area which all government officials and the general public are invited to attend will be on Wednesday, March 2 at 7 p.m. at the Ogden Community Center, 269 Ogden Center Road.

A presentation of the Proposed County Capital Improvement Program, followed by questions, comments and discussion will follow.

The main purposes for holding these information meetings is to give local government officials and interested citizens an opportunity to know what capital projects the county proposes to build over the next six years; to get reactions and comments as to how the projects relate to community and neighborhood plans, programs and priorities; and to learn of additional needs that are not addressed by the proposed CIP. Comments received at these information meetings will be taken into account by the Planning Board in formulating its written recommendations.

For information, contact Paul A. Johnson, Monroe County Planning Board at 585-428-5477 or by e-mail: pjohnson@monroecounty.gov.
