Land-use proposals on advisory council agenda

Published: Wednesday, Oct. 01, 2008 | Page 2B

Concerns about possible land-use changes in Granite Bay will be discussed tonight by the community's municipal advisory council.

The 7 p.m. meeting will be at the Eureka Union School District office, 5455 Eureka Road.

The land-use issue stems from Placer County's announcement that an update to the Granite Bay Community Plan will be considered soon.

Some Granite Bay residents are concerned that could result in significant changes in the community's character.

"We're keeping an eye on developers," resident Bob Schulke said. "They are always searching for a way to break through."

According to the agenda, the purpose of the update is to ensure that the community's goals, policies and programs are consistent with the county's general plan.

County staff is developing a program that will include a six-month window for property owners to change their zoning and land-use designations, according to the council's agenda.
