Downtown Long Beach Land Use Planning


Renewing the Downtown Plan; Revitalizing the Downtown Waterfront 


The City of Long Beach has launched a two-part effort designed to update regulations for development in Downtown and to establish a common vision and supportive land use strategies for the future of the Downtown Shoreline area.

  • Downtown Plan Update: Encompasses the downtown area north of Ocean Boulevard and will be updated and renewed with a focus on expanding housing opportunities for all income levels, including the development of new affordable housing projects.

  • Downtown Shoreline Vision Plan: Encompasses the area south of Ocean Boulevard and will help gauge stakeholder expectations and aspirations for the Downtown Shoreline area and establish a contemporary community Vision Plan for a world-class waterfront. Click the graphic below to learn more and get involved!
 



Get Involved!

The City of Long Beach is committed to a comprehensive and inclusive planning process, guided by extensive community outreach and public participation. A variety of online and in-person outreach activities will be used to make public involvement accessible to as many community members and stakeholders as possible.

We hosted a joint open house for the Long Beach Downtown Plan Update and Downtown Shoreline Vision Plan on Saturday Sept. 9, 2023. View the Open House presentation video and boards below!
