Additional discussions focused on the specific roles and responsibilities for all parties involved in the planning process. In addition to representatives from each of the participating municipal jurisdictions, it was determined that representatives from fire and law enforcement agencies, private businesses, voluntary agencies, and the public would continue to be invited to participate in the process.
