General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC)
With the Council's initiation of the General Plan Update, the Council approved the creation of a robust community-based public engagement process. The creation of a General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) was one of several opportunities for public participation supported by Council to involve a variety of stakeholders, community perspectives, and interests. The GPAC will play a critical role in developing an inclusive planning effort that ensures broad public participation.
The GPAC is a temporary Council advisory committee tasked with making recommendations on amendments to the Truckee General Plan to the Truckee Planning Commission and Town Council. The membership will consist of volunteer community members representing a wide variety of backgrounds, perspectives and interests.
Note: The GPAC Climate Subcommittee will meet the third Wednesday of each month at 3pm at Town Hall.
