The Planning Commission is authorized by County ordinance to review the County General Plan and various development regulations and make recommendations on their adoption or amendment by the County Board of Supervisors. The Commission is also charged with reviewing and acting upon various development permits issued by the County. The County Planning Commission’s jurisdiction is generally limited to the unincorporated areas of the County (outside city limits). Each city in the County has its own planning commission.
Planning Commission hearings are generally held on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month at 9 AM in the Board Chambers located at 400 County Center, Redwood City, CA 94063. Times and location sometimes change and is indicated on the agenda.
