City of Palmdale to Present General Plan Alternatives Through Virtual Meetings

PALMDALE – The City of Palmdale will host virtual presentations and solicit input on the City’s land-use alternatives as part of the General Plan Update process.

The Palmdale General Plan Update will serve as a 25-year guide for growth and development and will provide guidance for land use, economic growth, open space, conservation, affordable housing and employment.

Beginning Wednesday, July 15, a virtual workshop tool showing the alternatives will be available for the public’s review and comment. The virtual workshop may be accessed 24-hours a day, 7-days a week and features similar resources offered at an in-person meeting, including project materials and engagement activities.

The public is also invited to participate in a live online presentation with City staff and the project team on Saturday, Aug. 8 from 9:30 am to 11 am. Participants will be able to ask questions and provide comments on the land-use alternatives on the live platform. The registration link is available on the project website at Palmdale2045.org.

In addition, the live presentation audio will be available for listening only by dialing 1-877-309-2074, access Code 940-773-954.
