The Thurston County Planning Commission meeting focused on two main topics: joint planning between the county and cities, and officer elections. Staff presented an overview of the joint planning process, including updates to urban growth area zoning codes and joint plans for Olympia, Lacey, and Tumwater. The commission discussed concerns about disenfranchising UGA residents and the need to review memorandums of understanding with cities. Officer elections resulted in Eric Casino being named chair and Sandy Kaiser as vice chair. Staff updates included ongoing recruitment for Larry Schaffner's position and upcoming changes in several department positions. The commission also learned about upcoming board work sessions and grant-funded projects for water and critical areas updates.
