  5.2 Communication / Coordination (COM) Communication / coordination refers to programs, plans and partnerships that promote  interagency communication and coordination and dissemination of information to the  public and other stakeholders.  Interagency communication serves the general welfare by  promoting a more comprehensive planning process, inclusive of all affected stakeholders.   Interagency coordination also seeks to develop and include mutually beneficial policies  for local communities and the military.  Coordination is achieved in local planning  documents such as comprehensive plans.  Providing relevant and timely information to  the public keeps them informed of activities and instills a sense of confidence and  support.     Five issues relating to Communication / Coordination have been identified as part of this JLUS.
