Title

Planning Commission

Agendas
Meeting Schedule

The development of the City Planning Commission, formed in 1923, was mainly an outgrowth of the activities of the Plans and Planning Committee, a citizens group. The 1925 earthquake destroyed many structures, and the extensive rebuilding that followed offered the Commission a fresh opportunity for instituting a planning process for the future growth of the City.

The first building and zoning ordinances were adopted in 1923 and 1925, and the City's first comprehensive General Plan in 1964. The Commission now sends representatives to other City Boards and Commissions.

General Functions

  • Recommend to the City Council, after a public hearing thereon, the adoption, amendment or repeal of the General Plan, or any part thereof, and specific or precise plans it may deem advisable for guidance in the physical development of the City.
  • Exercise such functions with respect to land subdivisions as provided by ordinance not inconsistent with the provisions of the City Charter (approve or disapprove tentative subdivision maps; and authorized to require dedications for public use as a condition for approval of subdivision maps, etc.).
  • Exercise such functions with respect to zoning, building, land use, redevelopment, conservation, proposed public works and related matters as may be prescribed by ordinance not inconsistent with the City Charter (all actions provided by the Zoning Ordinance in connection with modifications, variances, site plans, development plans, etc. and make recommendations to City Council for amendments to the Zoning Ordinance).
