EDITORIAL We need OCP chatter ne thing to rise clearly from last week’s two- day offi cial communi- ty plan sessions held Oat ArtSpring is that the trustees and Islands Trust staff need more help to complete the plan review. Trustees Peter Lamb and George Ehring had some opinions and preferences for certain recommendations put forth by focus groups and then analyzed by staff, but they expressed a desire to receive more direction from the public.
