Central City Community Plan
Development in the Central City Area is guided by the Central City Community Plan designations as amended through 2004. This area contains many specialized land use designations because of the various intensities and uses that are located in the Central City area. One item of note is the large amount of Multi Family Residential (359 acres) and Residential Mixed Use (145 acres). Vacant land exists mainly in small acreages, with larger amounts in areas designated for Industrial Preserve (77 acres).
Review Efforts
In March 2007, the Sacramento City Council authorized staff to expand work on the 2030 General Plan to include a review of the city's community plans. This review transformed the community plans from stand-alone documents (separate from the 1988 General Plan) into chapters of the 2030 General Plan. The process involved removing redundant or conflicting community plan policies and creating a consistent outline for all community plans to follow in the future.
The community plan chapters serve primarily as placeholders for future work, if and when such efforts are approved and funded by the Sacramento City Council.
