Adopted Circulation Element Update

City staff and its consultant team worked with the Planning Commission and the community starting in 2020 through 2022 to prepare an update to the General Plan Circulation Element. The Circulation Element was updated to comply with state law mandates, such as “Complete Streets” and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) legislation. It was also refreshed to reflect the community’s vision on trending transportation matters, including electric vehicles (EV), rideshare services (e.g., Uber and Lyft), public transportation, telecommuting, as well as parking and parking lot management.

On October 25, 2022, the City Council adopted the Circulation Element Update. Please click here to download and view the latest updated version.
