HOUMA - " As the parish gears up to begin gathering community input to the Terrebonne Parish Vision 2030 Comprehensive Plan, community residents are urged to get involved and to stay informed. “We want to have insight from as many residents as possible as we move forward,” explained Pat Gordon Parish Consolidated Government’s Planning and Zoning Department. “Our consultant team is currently finalizing details regarding how the plan will be developed based on community input. One important factor is making sure that residents stay informed. We want to make sure everyone has a chance to receive updates and offer additional suggestions.” The communitywide kickoff of the comprehensive planning process is set for May 16th at 6:00 pm at the Terrebonne Civic Center. Residents are encouraged to attend to find out more about the steps the parish is taking to plan for its future. In addition, community residents can learn of upcoming events related to the master plan in a number of ways: 1) Electronic updates will be sent to all those wishing to be on the e-notification list; 2) The project website will be fully operational by May 1 at www.tpcg.org; 3) Flyers and newsletter updates will be shared with area churches, businesses, libraries and other community organizations to allow the information to be spread more fully into the area; and 4) News organizations are asked to assist in sharing information. The consultant team is launching an initial outreach effort to open the process to as many residents as possible. Community residents or organizations who are interested in being kept informed during the process are encouraged to call 873-6568 or email the team at masterplan@tpcg.org to be added to the communication list, and to provide the team with more information about the best ways to keep the community informed.
