City passes General Plan
The final draft of the General Plan update was approved by the City Council tonight, capping off a two-year effort of revising the master document that guides development in the city. It's been nine years since the General Plan was last updated.
Councilwoman Diane Williams, an avid reader, likened the massive document to good prose.
"I'm so proud of this," Williams said. "I don't know if there's a contest for this kind of thing but this surely is an award winner."
This revised plan is expected to carry the city to build-out, or about 10 more years.
After the plan was approved, Planning Director James Troyer gave consultant Sam Gennawey a hug.
"In the last two years, did you guys ever hug?" asked Councilman Dennis Michael.
The two shook their heads.

I was hoping you would have mentioned the Chaffey College program that is being cut. A student from the college spoke regarding this last night at the council meeting. We really need the help of of the DB to get the word out.
I know you are going on vacation soon. Is there another reporter who can help us. The students are heartbroken over the cancellation of the auto body program here at Chaffey.
