RECOMMENDED ACTION
Receive staff report outlining the significant features of the Santa Monica Mountains North
Area Plan and direct staff to send a letter to the County Board of Supervisors expressing

BACKGROUND
The County of Los Angeles, the cities of Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Hidden Hills, Westlake
Village, the Las Virgenes Municipal Water District, Las Virgenes Unified School District
and the National Park Service have been working for more than 7 years to develop the
Santa Monica Mountains North Area Plan. This Plan is an excellent opportunity to
conduct regional planning and to address the issues of multiple public agencies. As the
City of Santa Clarita and the County of Los Angeles are beginning the development of a
Joint General Plan, a significant step forward in conducting valleywide planning in the
Santa Clarita Valley, staff believes it prudent to actively participate in and comment on
this plan along the 101 Freeway corridor.
Staff will present its findings in writing and verbally at the October 10`" City Council
meeting.
