How did my property get included in the study?: The City Council directed staff to include in this study the wildlife habitat areas in the south hills that had been previously removed from the preliminary Goal 5 Inventory in 2003. Staff recommended adding a few additional known ridgeline habitat areas, as well as city-owned parkland adjacent to and outside the urban growth boundary (UGB). Before the study is adopted there will be an opportunity for public comment through a public hearing process.

Whether a property is ultimately included in the adopted habitat inventory will be the subject of a recommendation by the Planning Commission and a final decision by the City Council. To find out if your property is in the study area, and what inventory method was applied to it, contact Planning Division staff.
