Planning Defined

Planning helps ensure the orderly and safe development of communities and neighborhoods. It does this by applying land use goals and policies, zoning, and other development standards that help shape new and existing development. Planning staff works with City Building and Engineering staff to review development proposals for compliance with adopted standards, and encourages citizens, business and property owners, neighborhood groups, civic groups, and other community stakeholders to participate in the planning process, attend public land use hearings, and help identify community goals and values.

Environmental Reports

The Planning Division also prepares and oversees environmental reports that study the environmental effects of development projects and identify ways of avoiding environmental damage, as required by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Environmental Filing - County Clerk Filing Information
