Environment and Planning Survey 
Prepared by Whidbey Environmental Action Network (WEAN). WEAN is a Community Based Organization (CBO) working with Island Roots Housing and Agricultural Resources Committee of Island County to engage more community members in Comprehensive Planning.

The CBO Consortium is supported with funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act (CCA). The CCA supports Washington’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and-invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution, creating jobs, and improving public health. Information about the CCA is available at www.climate.wa.gov.

Thank you for taking this survey, which will provide Island County with information about environmental issues in our community during the Comprehensive Plan update. You may remain anonymous if you so choose.

Please respond by Monday, February 3 at 11:59 PM.
