Finding Your Civic Voice: Comp Planning

This December, Island County is releasing the draft elements for the county's Comprehensive Plan, a planning process that will shape our community for the next 20 years. The public comment period is between December 10, 2025 and February 9, 2026.

We hope that community members who sign up for this workshop will be interested in providing feedback on the Island County Comprehensive Plan. 

Join Whidbey Environmental Action Network in the process of finding your own, unique voice as an environmental and civic advocate at our Finding Your Civic Voice workshop. Learn about the public comment process, craft your own public comments, and workshop them in front of a supportive audience of your peers.

Gain the skills to speak up on behalf of future generations — and all of the people, plants, animals, and organisms who aren’t invited into our committee meetings, legislature, or board rooms.
