Welcome

Welcome to the Laguna Niguel General Plan Update website! The City is excited to embark on the process of updating its General Plan and this website will provide the community with an ongoing resource to provide input, track progress, review resource documents, and participate in this very important project.

Each city in California is required to have a General Plan, which serves as a guiding document for the city’s long-term growth and development. Most of Laguna Niguel’s current General Plan dates back to 1992 - just after the City’s incorporation - and a lot has changed since then. New housing developments have been built, business and industry needs are different, and the way people get around town has changed.

Looking forward 20 years, how will state and regional trends impact life in Laguna Niguel? What new technologies and innovations will change how we live, work, and play? While we can’t see exactly what the future holds, we are preparing for it by updating our General Plan.

This General Plan Update is a way for you to share your vision for the future of Laguna Niguel. We need your help in order to make the General Plan a success. What do you love about Laguna Niguel? What opportunities and challenges do you think face the City as it evolves over the next 10, 15, or 20 years? Weighing-in on the Laguna Niguel General Plan Update process at open houses and online will help make sure that the updated General Plan conveys the values and priorities of all its residents and businesses. With your help, we can plan for tomorrow, together!
