BPC Involvement in Local Issues
The Big Park Council (BPC), through its committees, researches issues affecting the
community and, through a consensus process, develops comments and recommendations to present, as a unified voice, to local government and other agencies. A history to be proud of, that continues to this day.
A few of the more recent activities supported by community forums are illustrated below. (Vista Village upgrade plans, The Collective special use permit and Horse Mesa ranch special use permit) See About Us and please refer to Big Park Council Accomplishments for more information.

Proposed land use changes are the most common issues faced by the community and these are handled by the BPC Standing Planning & Zoning (P&Z) Committee and its ad hoc APS Transmission Line Subcommittee.
Occasionally, a task force is created to more closely monitor an issue of local interest and report back to the Council. Recent examples include the proposed sale/repurpose of the Big Park School property and safety issues regarding the I17 and SR179 interchange.
