Public Participation Process Sample Clauses

Public Participation Process. The LHC sought public input into both the development of the NHTF 2016 Allocation Plan and the final product. An email blast was sent to more than 2,000 names on LHC’s various email lists seeking input from known interested parties. Additionally the same notice was published in the eight largest circulated newspapers in Louisiana. The public notices gave 20 days (in excess of the 15 days required by the State’s ConPlan Public Participation Plan) to send in comments. Additionally the LHC held a public hearing on June 9, 2016 in conjunction with the Public Hearing on the 2015 CAPER and 2017 Action Plan to solicit input. Sign in sheets and a summary of written comments received and the proofs of publication follows. While verbal comments were received at the Public Hearing they were offered by the same people that had submitted written comment and did not differ in any substantial manner. The final plan was made available for public comment on MM/DD/YYYY. The final plan summary was emailed to all know interested parties and the summary was published in the major newspapers of the state on MM/DD/YYYY.
