City of Pacifica, Connect with Pacifica this Week, Kevin Woodhouse, City Manager, 6/28/19.

 

.... Attend one of the upcoming Plan Pacifica meetings to give your input into the City’s General Plan Update, Local Coastal Program Update, and the Sharp Park Specific Plan. Two meetings are happening next week on Monday and Tuesday nights, July 1 and 2, details below. And if you cannot attend one of the five community meetings, there are other ways to give input throughout the process. Visit the project website to learn more.

 

Plan Pacifica - we want to hear from you. You are invited to help Plan Pacifica's future at a series of community meetings to discuss the General Plan, Coastal Plan, and new Sharp Park Specific Plan!

In early 2019, the City of Pacifica began the simultaneous process of updating its General Plan and Local Coastal Program, and developing a new specific plan for the Sharp Park area. The General Plan is the City's most important planning tool, and has not been comprehensively updated since 1980. Now, it's time to create a new plan which will guide the City for the next 20 years or more. Through these meetings, we are asking YOU to tell us what is important to you. The first meeting was held this week, with great success. There are still four more and details of dates and locations can be found below. You can learn more about this project at www.planpacifica.org.

Whether you are a resident and/or work in a given area, or an invested resident from another one, everyone is welcome to help Plan Pacifica! This event is FREE! Please RSVP to help us better plan. Child care and a light meal will be provided at each meeting. Doors open at 5:45 pm. RSVP here.
