The Lake Forest Park Climate Element is open for public comment now through August 11, 2025
The City of Lake Forest Park has initiated a public comment period for its draft Climate Element, which is open from June 16 to August 11, 2025. This draft was developed based on community input regarding local experiences and concerns about climate change. In June 2025, the City submitted the draft to the Department of Commerce and will present it to the Planning Commission and City Council for further review. Residents can access the draft and provide feedback through the city's public comment webpage. For any questions or additional information, residents are encouraged to reach out via email to designated city officials.
This public engagement is crucial as the City aims to incorporate local perspectives into policy planning. The Climate Element will play a vital role in shaping future actions to mitigate climate change impacts on the community. The initiative underscores the importance of community involvement in local governance and environmental planning efforts.
