City of Seldovia’s Comprehensive Plan Public Review Draft

| February 12, 2014 | 0 Comments

by Jenny Chissus

Comprehensive Plan Rough DraftThe City of Seldovia has received the public review draft for the Seldovia City Comprehensive Plan!  Many Seldovia residents participated in the multiple meetings that were held in the Post Office building this past year, and it will be rewarding to see the complete “vision” perceived by the group from USKH.

The City and USKH are hopeful that the community will continue their participation and take the time to review the document.  To download the full draft, you may CLICK HERE to go directly to the City of Seldovia site to download the document.

Please be patient, as it is a fairly large file, so it may take some time to download.  Please bring your thoughts and comments to the City.  You may print off the plan and mark directly on your copy, and return that to the city office.  You may also send your comments to this email:  seldoviacompplan@gmail.com.  The comment period deadline is March 17, 2014.

There will be public discussion of the Comprehensive Plan draft at both the upcoming Planning and Zoning meeting and  council meeting, though there is not a meeting planned specifically to address this document.

After all the comments are reviewed and changes are made to the document, the final version will return to Seldovia’s Planning and Zoning Commission for adoption, then to the city council for approval.  The final process will include adoption at the Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning Commission then to the Borough Assembly for final approval.

Thank you for your input and continued support of this very important project for the future of Seldovia!

Thoughts to Ponder…Stress

Screen Shot 2014-02-12 at 9.01.44 AMIf you haven’t been introduced to TED videos, this is the day you were born for!

Totally inspiring, totally thought provoking and totally a transformational opportunity – if you will allow yourself to be challenged by new ideas and technology.  I have been a fan of TED videos for quite some time, as you get a glimpse into the minds and hearts of people from all walks of life who are making a difference in their industries, communities and lives of others.  Why are we here, if not to make a difference?  Like I said: Transformational!

Information about this particular video:

It is exciting when your son comes home from school, and has been challenged by something!  This week, Devin was eager to share this video that Ruth Sensenig had shared in class.  It was interesting to me, that he thought it important enough to get it lined up on our Smart TV to watch in the comfort of the living room, instead of on a small laptop.  Whether he saw the value for himself, or felt we needed to hear it – we have all benefited from watching this eye-opening video.

Stress, it comes in all forms.  Some good, some not so pleasant, but overall, much stress comes from a feeling of lack of control.   As adults, we are all accustomed to agonizing over the “stress” in our lives;  our jobs, our vehicle that is making a funny noise, health issues, ice in our driveway, a cancelled ferry, relationships that sometimes aren’t easy, worried about our children, finances or agonizing about how to help our aging parents.  But our kids also “enjoy” a certain amount of stress – school performance, sports, homework, relationships with peers, chores, new romances, jobs and “helicopter” moms!

This video will open your eyes to the value of stress, the chemical and physical reactions to stress that we DO have the ability to control.  Understanding the science behind the stress will help you become empowered, courageous and alert to tackle the complicated things in life!   Learn a secret about the value of relationships and connections that chemically work in our favor – if we acknowledge them.    I hope you enjoy!   Thanks Ruth for sharing this with our kids!
