SUDJECT; ANALYSIS OF GENERAL PLAN -LANE USE TEXT
PAM March 30, 1978
Gentlemen
There are a number of deficiencies in the existing
text of the Land Use Element which, in staff's opinion,
Tender it inadequate for continued use and for proper
development of map proposals. The text was adopted in 1971
after insufficient consideration of its contents, before
California State law required consistency of zoning and
general plans, and before the State Office of Planning and
Research adopted guidelines for general plan preparation.
Because of the above reasons and, the simple fact that the
County has changed greatly in seven years, the Commission
and staff should. consider the existing text only as a
starting point in the development; of a land use element
which summarizes County goals and. policies, describes land
use categories, sets standards and criteria for development,
and proposes a growth pattern consistent with all of the above,
The existing text covers many of the appropriate
subjects and recommends many significant policies. Tlowever,
it is not well organized and policy recommendations are
frequently hidden in discussion of background data and
issues. Background data is excessive on some subjects
lacking for others and frequently out-of-date.
There are 4 number of recommendations in the existing
text wbh we question and believe should be revised or at
least us ed and clarified. Copies of the existing Land
Use text and corresponding state guidelines for
the ion thereof are enclosed for Commission review.
The on should ascertain whether the existing text
is i expression of County thinking and consistent
with r,. .r , , : a State Planning requirements.
