Public involvement is vital to the success of the study. Clay County values your input. No question is too basic, too long, or untimely. Our team will explain the PD&E process in a way that is easily understood.
Public Involvement is more than inviting the public to attend a meeting. Our goal is to establish a dialogue with residents, businesses and institutions within the community. Your involvement is a vital aspect of the study process. We view you as a member of our study team, and we want your input.
Public Information Meetings will be held throughout the PD&E Study. Each of the meetings will contain updates and general information about the project.
