Official Plan that best reconciles the various interests of our citizens, our resources and the potential of our territory.” The UCPR has scheduled three open houses in Rockland, Oct. 23, at city hall, Casselman, Oct. 24, at town hall, and in L’Orignal, Oct. 30, in the counties chamber. Each public forum runs from 3 to 8 p.m., with counties staff attending to answer questions. A final public meeting on the OP review report is scheduled for Nov. 13, 1 p.m., in the counties chamber in L’Orignal. At the end of November the counties' planning
and forestry committee will review all amendments proposed for the OP during the public forums before making final rec- ommendations to the counties council.

The counties plan- ning department expects to have a final OP report for counties council to review and adopt by December. The preliminary report on the OP re- view, including appendices, is available for download at the counties website at www. prescott-russell.on.ca.
