SB 1095

Existing law requires the planning agency to prepare, and the legislative body of each county and city to adopt, a comprehensive, long-term general plan for the physical development of the county or city, and of any land outside its boundaries that in the planning agency’s judgment bears relation to its planning. Existing law requires the general plan to include specified elements. In this connection, existing law requires review of the safety element at certain intervals, including during revision of the local hazard mitigation plan, to consider the advice in certain publications by the Office of Planning and Research, including the most recent publication of the “Fire Hazard Planning, General Plan Technical Advice Series,” as specified. Existing law renames the Office of Planning and Research the Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation and requires all references to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research to be deemed to be references to the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation, except as specified. This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provisions that describe the required elements of a general plan by updating references to the Office of Planning and Research the Office contained therein to the Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation.
