Countywide : Experts on Development to Discuss Growth Plan
Experts on the development of public and private lands will discuss Orange County’s new growth-management plan and its impact on the building industry on Monday in a dinner meeting at the Red Lion Inn in Costa Mesa.
Topics to be discussed during the program, which starts at 7 p.m., include how the growth plan will affect the county’s 28 cities and why the building industry is not fighting it.
Speakers are Michael Ruane, planning director for Orange County; Phillip Bettencourt, an independent real estate public affairs consultant; Kathryn G. Thompson, president of a development company; Barry Gross, who represents Orange County Supervisor Gaddi H. Vasquez on the county’s development processing review committee, and John Erskine, a partner of the development law firm of Nossaman Guthner Knox & Elliott and a city councilman in Huntington Beach.
