A Note about the Role of the STAC & SPAC: While the County invites and depends upon citizen participation on numerous issues through a variety of boards, panels and committees, it is important to note that both the STAC and SPAC are formed as advisory groups to the Department of Community Development to assist the formation of a staff recommendation for an updated Shoreline Master Program (SMP). STAC and SPAC participants have been invited by staff and the list of members was reviewed by the Board of County Commissioners (BoCC). The STAC and SPAC are project-specific rather than standing committees, are not decision-making bodies, and were not appointed by elected officials. In any case, STAC and SPAC meetings are always open to the public and meeting notes are recorded as a good faith effort for transparency, involvement & collaboration. For example, the STAC and SPAC are different than:
Past and upcoming SPAC and STAC meeting dates are posted above and interested parties are invited to attend and observe. Beyond the observer comment periods included in the agenda the committees do not generally engage in dialogue with the audience to allow focus on committee work tasks. The STAC and SPAC Roles, Responsibilities, Operations & Schedule document is posted above and serves as guidance for how the groups will function. Both groups are working closely with staff and project consultants during preparation of a proposed SMP, which will then be presented to the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners for formal review and public comment.
