Two rounds of General Plan Update community workshops and targeted outreach meetings were held in May, June and September of 2009 to advance big picture concepts identified during the 2008 visioning process. 

Workshops were held in the following local planning areas:

• Miramonte/Springer Road Area
  
• San Antonio/Rengstorff Area
  
• Moffett/Whisman Road Area
  
• Central Neighborhoods Area
  
• Grant Road/Sylvan Park Area
  
• Monta Loma/Farley/Rock Street Area

The first round of outreach focused on general land use and policy direction.Visit the documents library to download Workshop round 1 summaries.
