Leavenworth County residents who are interested in the future development of the county are invited to attend a public meeting next week at the Basehor Community Library.
The meeting is being conducted as part of a process that will result in a new comprehensive plan for Leavenworth County.
The comprehensive plan, which is sometimes referred to as a master plan, will provide a future land use plan, according to Jeff Joseph, director of the Leavenworth County Planning and Zoning Department.
Joseph said the comprehensive plan for the county was put together in 2008.
In February, Leavenworth County commissioners approved a contract with the company Olsson, Kansas City, Missouri. The company will produce a new comprehensive plan for the county at a cost of $288,800.
