Public input sought on master plan visions, values

The community visioning process for the Saratoga Master Plan continues with the public values input phase of the project. Saratoga area residents are encouraged to complete a Community Input Survey available at Saratoga Town Hall, the Saratoga/Platte Valley Chamber of Commerce or online at the following link: https://surveymonkey.com/s/SaratogaMasterPlan. Values weighed include natural environment and resources; land use and housing; economy and community facilities and services.

This link can also be found on the town of Saratoga and Chamber of Commerce websites. Surveys will be collected until Oct. 9 with public forums and focus groups to follow.

The community visioning process will form the foundation for the creation of the Saratoga Master Plan. A master plan is a document that reflects the community’s values, vision for itself, opportunities for achieving the vision, and goals and actions for the future. It is a map of where the community is, where it wants to be and how to get there.

The plan is slated for completion in late spring 2016.
