The revised Land Use Element Maps are now available for community review.

Based on community discussions over the past two months, City staff presented revised maps to meet the projected job and housing needs, as well as address concerns related to height, density, additional housing units and traffic. The revised maps reflect changes that modified multi-use designations to commercial designations, proposed height reductions in several areas, and lighter intensity uses throughout. The revised maps reflect a reduction in density of 686 acres through height-reduction and modified land-use designations. 

The City will take input regarding the revised maps via email at LUEUDE2040@longbeach.gov. The Planning Commission will consider these revised maps on December 11, 2017. The community is encouraged to visit www.longbeach.gov/lueude2040 to get involved, to learn the facts, and to gain a better understanding of this effort. Maps available on the website include the revised maps, a map of existing land uses, and previous versions of the maps from August 2017 and February 2017 for comparison purposes.
