MPC … the abridged version for quick reference & revisiting the topic of the official map

Want the quick reference for the Pennsylvania Municipal Planning Commission; click on the picture.

Almost the identical issues that were broached about a borough “official map” at the Monday Planning Commission meeting were recorded and documented in the January, 2003 council meeting minutes.

And here is a helpful link to a page entitled, Provisions Specifying Time Limits, Time Periods, Etc., Third Edition, November 2007  

[EDITOR’S NOTE: We find the minutes then were far more comprehensive than those of today. It appears the cloak of secrecy and the absence of transparency in government have led to an information abyss. As an example, should the Borough of Columbia post the Comprehensive Plan to the Borough Website? Should the Borough of Columbia post the separate committee agenda and minutes to the Borough Website? We were able to find Comprehensive Plans and more information at the Websites of other Lancaster County boroughs? Why the secrecy?]
