Importance of Public Comment. The public process and feedback from the community are essential parts of land use planning. Some projects have clear rules and regulations, and some projects involve more discretion. Regardless, it’s helpful to hear thoughts and opinions from the community. All commenters become parties of interest which keeps them in the loop on future notices and also makes them eligible to appeal the final decision. Note that form letters and petitions are not considered comments for the purposes of land use review.
