Unlock the Land of Possibilities with Your Feedback

Share ideas on the direction of future land use in the City of Ventura

Give feedback that will impact the next 20 years in just 10 minutes*

Since 2020, the City heard from thousands of community members in its process of creating a land use map through workshops, online surveys, Community Councils, focus groups, pop-up events, and a General Plan Advisory Committee comprised of a diverse cross-section of community members. 

The culmination of this process was a series of 10 meetings with the 21-member General Plan Advisory Committee between November 2022 and June 2023 to discuss the vision for the different areas of the City and develop a proposed land use map for review by the community. The City’s land use map defines what every parcel in the City can be used for, and the residential density or commercial intensity that is allowed on those parcels. 

*estimated time for the General Feedback Form

Input on the land use map is available in two formats:



1. The "High-Level Land Use Feedback Form" is for residents to provide feedback on the vision for different areas of the City as well as citywide policy direction. We encourage everyone to take this survey.

2. The "Detailed Land Use Direction Feedback Form" is for residents who want to provide detailed input on land uses at the parcel level.

The results from both Feedback Forms will be presented to the Planning Commission (August 2023) and City Council (September 2023) as part of its discussions on the proposed land use map.

Survey Deadline: August 2, 2023
