Generally, CPACs were
created in the unincorporated County to facilitate and encourage direct citizen
participation early in the planning process when it’s supposed to be easier for
the project proponents and decision-makers to respond to public concerns. CPACs gather community responses to proposed
projects.
What kind of projects?
These can range from broad policy questions that apply countywide, to
small development projects of only local interest. Entitlements reviewed include General Plan and
Zoning Code amendments to plans, zoning matters and use permits.
What goes on during a CPAC meeting? During a typical meeting, the people
advocating for a project will make a presentation to members of the particular CPAC
and the members of the public who attend.
The council will ask questions
and express any of their concerns. Then,
members of the public will be asked for input on the project. General public response/specific concerns are
recorded in the CPAC minutes and forwarded to Planning and Environmental Review
for inclusion in staff reports.
CPACs are advisory only and do not make final decisions.
CPAC recommendations and neighborhood input, however, are carefully weighed by
the final decision-making bodies. The
public can provide input directly to any subsequent hearing body that takes
final action through letters or public testimony during the hearing.
The members of the South Sacramento CPAC are Burke Lucy, Todd Lambert, Orga Pacheco, and John Newman.
