Community Workshops on Modesto 2050- Land Use Alternatives

Modesto, CA, September 26, 2024 - The City of Modesto has initiated the first comprehensive update of its General Plan since 1995, called “Modesto 2050: Our City. Our Future.” The updated General Plan will serve as the City’s blueprint for future decisions regarding land use, growth and development, community services, mobility, housing, and resource conservation, among other topics.

We are excited to announce an upcoming round of community workshops. During this phase of engagement, we are asking the community to share their ideas about the future boundary of the city and what type of land use or development they want to see. The City will host a workshop in each of the six Council districts plus one citywide workshop to make it easy to attend. Spanish interpretation will be provided at all workshops. Workshop dates and locations are below, and additional information can be found at the project website.
