Placer County 2050 General Plan Update (Placer 2050)

Placer County 2050 General Plan Update (Placer 2050)

Placer County is preparing a comprehensive update to the Placer County General Plan, adopted in August 1994 and updated in May 2013. Often described as a jurisdiction's "constitution," general plans are required by State law to guide long-term physical growth and development, typically for a 20-year planning horizon. General plans must be periodically updated to respond to new State laws, changing conditions, and emerging issues and opportunities. State law requires that the General Plan contain eight elements: land use, circulation, housing, open space, noise, safety, conservation, and environmental justice. The County's General Plan Planning Area covers the unincorporated areas within the county. The County's updated Placer County 2050 General Plan will build off the current Placer County General Plan and will include goals, policies, and implementation programs that set the long-term plan for potential future development in unincorporated Placer County (EIR study area) through the year 2050. The County will continue to hold public workshops and meetings throughout the planning process to inform the public and interested agencies about the proposed project and solicit feedback on the contents of the proposed project.
