The City of Los Angeles’ Department of City Planning is initiating the process of updating each of its 35 Community Plans over the next six years. The plans represent the land use element of the General Plan, a long-range planning document that captures the City’s vision for the future of our neighborhoods. Its vision is captured through community input on policies and programs that guide the development and growth of these neighborhoods for years to come.
As part of this process, we are concurrently updating three plans: Canoga Park-Winnetka-Woodland Hills-West Hills, Encino-Tarzana, and Reseda-West Van Nuys. Together, these plans represent the Southwest Valley Plans.
Our aim is to engage the community toward reaching two key goals: 1) Planning for projected population and employment growth in the southwest Valley for the next twenty-five years; and 2) applying the City’s new zoning code structure to these areas. Your participation in the plan update will be vital in ensuring that the community’s vision for the southwest Valley is accurately reflected in the City’s land use policy.
