​Project Steering Committee

Role of the Committee
The Project Steering Committee (PSC) provides key insights, outreach to the community, information, and guidance to develop the City of Olivia Comprehensive Plan.

The PSC is made up of members representing a cross-section of the Olivia community including residents, business owners, commercial property owners, and civic organizations.

The PSC works to build community consensus around a vision for the city’s future and how to get there. The PSC collaborates with the consultant team and with a range of public agencies, non-profit organizations, and civic leaders while actively inviting the community's participation in the plan’s engagement tools.

The work of the PSC will begin in mid-May 2022 and continue until completion of the plan, expected on or before October 2023.​
