"Participation in open houses will ensure that proposed changes to the comprehensive plan are exactly what citizens articulated during the Plan 2025 workshops held in 2003," remarked Planning Commission Executive Director Robert B. Hunter, FAICP. "It’s tremendously important that citizens express to their County Commissioners what they desire for the future of Hillsborough County.”
