A public hearing will be held tonight during the Menifee Planning Commission meeting to discuss the city's proposed General Plan.
Following the discussion during the 7 p.m. meeting at City Hall, planning commissioners will vote on whether to recommend that the City Council adopt the General Plan proposed by city staff.
This is the first comprehensive General Plan in the five-year history of the city. Such a plan is required by Government Code 65302, which requires cities to make specific plans regarding land use, circulation, housing, conservation, open space, noise and safety. Menifee's proposed General Plan would include two additional elements: Community design and economic development.
This public hearing will provide a review of a consulting firm's Environmental Impact Report related to the proposed General Plan. The Draft Environmental Impact Report is available for public review until Oct. 28. A copy of the General Plan and Draft EIR are available on the city's website as well as at City Hall, The Sun City Library and Paloma Valley Library.
According to the notice of public hearing, the Menifee General Plan includes forecasts of long-term conditions and outlines development goals and policies. It designates land use for up to 63,754 dwellings and up to 10,751,227 square feet of commercial retail and 41,569,476 square feet of nonretail uses.
