Board Chambers Meetings

The Community Planning Advisory Councils were created in the unincorporated County to facilitate and encourage direct citizen participation early in the planning process when it is easier for project proponents and decision-makers to respond to public concerns. The primary purpose of the CPAC is to gather community response to proposed projects. The projects reviewed range from broad policy questions that apply countywide, to small development projects of local interest. Entitlements reviewed include General Plan and Zoning Code amendments to plans, zoning matters and use permits.

On August 25, 1993, the Board of Supervisors adopted a revised Special Planning Area Ordinance for the project known as Metro Air Park to allow development of Metro Air Park as a high quality, multi-district, industrial business park. On September 12, 2000, the Board approved the Metro Air Park Public Facilities Financing Plan (Financing Plan). In addition to the Special Planning Area and pursuant to the Financing Plan, two Community Facilities Districts have been formed and have since issued bonds in order to facilitate the construction of public facilities within the district. Most recently, the County approved the Metro Air Park Development Impact Fee Program within the district.  On April 20, 2021 the Board approved the Resolution of Intention to establish the Metro Air Park Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District to finance certain public capital improvements and established a Public Financing Authority.
