In this course, experienced planners provide answers to these and other planning puzzles, beginning with a historical overview of planning in California. The basics of general plans and zoning are covered, followed by the development process from subdivision maps to occupancy permits. This course is designed for planning commissioners, builders, architects, real estate professionals, engineers, lenders, attorneys, citizen activists, and others who regularly confront the planning process or who would benefit from a basic understanding of the procedures for local review of land use and development proposals. Although the course is primarily intended for the non-planner, it is also useful for those considering a profession in planning.
