Functions of the Planning Commission

California Government Code Section 65103 outlines the responsibilities of the Planning Commission.  To summarize, the Commission shall:

  • Oversee the implementation of the general plan through the zoning and subdivision ordinances, prepare and revise the general plan as necessary, promote public interest in the general plan, and consult with public agencies and other organizations on the general plan.
  • Annually review the capital improvement program of the city and the local public works projects of other local agencies for their consistency with the general plan.
  • Promote the coordination of local plans and programs with the plans and programs of other public agencies. 
  • Perform other functions as the legislative body provides, including conducting studies and preparing plans.
