General Information on CPAC Role and Process
- CPAC Role - The Community Planning Advisory Councils (CPACs) 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.
- CPAC Process - During a typical meeting, Planning and Environmental Review staff and project applicants will present the project to the CPAC and audience. CPAC members may ask questions and express any of their concerns. After, the audience will be asked for input on the project. Finally, the CPAC may take a vote recommending approval or denial of the project.
- Note: CPACs are advisory only and do not make final decisions. Staff will include the recommendation vote and general public response/specific concerns in the project's staff report to the hearing body(s).
- CPAC Follow-Up - Citizens should be aware that the staff report only provides a summary of the meeting discussion. Therefore, citizens are encouraged to provide input directly to the subsequent hearing body(s) through letters or public testimony during the hearing. CPAC recommendations and neighborhood input are carefully weighed by the final decision-making bodies.
- CPAC Bylaws - All CPACs are subject to a common set of Bylaws, which were last updated in 2020.
