Planning Commission
Volunteers who serve on the Planning Commission provide recommendations to the City Council on land use, growth and development issues. They are charged with reviewing and providing recommendations regarding amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, development regulations and major development proposals.

The Planning Commission hosts public workshops and hearings to gather public input about a wide range of land use matters. The City Council is the ultimate decision-making authority on these land use matters and relies on the Planning Commission to develop the record, reflecting both technical information and community input, and to provide a thoughtful recommendation for Council’s consideration.

Candidates should have a general interest in environmental, growth and development issues but no technical background or experience in land use is required – important qualifications are an ability to listen to and work well with others, a willingness to read background reports provided prior to the meetings, and a commitment to regular attendance and active participation at the meetings.

The Planning Commission meets in the Council Chamber at Shoreline City Hall, on the first and third Thursdays of each month from 7:00 to 9:30 pm New members will be sworn in at the April 1 Planning Commission meeting.
