Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Placentia public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Density bonus ordinance update
The city is updating its density bonus rules to match state law, adding an extra 10% density bonus in Old Town and transit areas to chase the state's 'pro housing' designation and grant money. Council members noted state law already forces this, so passing it doesn't make things worse.
SP-5 specific plan update halted
The council pulled the plug on a $400,000 update to the Placentia-Orangethorpe corridor specific plan, saying it wasn't requested by the market, the area is fully built out, and the money may be needed for the next general plan update.
