General Plan 1989

This polygon layer identifies the land use element of the General Plan. The General Plan sets forth the goals, policies and directions the City will take in managing its future. The General Plan is the citizens' "blueprint" for development; the guide to achieving "our" vision. California law requires each local government to adopt a General Plan. Land use is one element of the General Plan. A newer Land Use Element is in effect as of 12/2019, however the land use classifications in this layer are still in effect in portions of the city including the Coastal Zone. DATA SOURCE: General Plan Land Use Element (1989) and approved resolution amending the Land Use Element of the General Plan (1989) MAINTENANCE: Updated as resolutions are approved by the Long Beach City Council. A newer land use element is now in effect, so future updates are expected to be minimal (only processing updates which had initiated before new LUE was approved).
