Planning Commission

The Planning Commission works in conjunction with the Planning Division and is responsible for evaluating and making determinations on a variety of land use matters for both long range and short-range planning, conducting public hearings on significant planning, zoning and land subdivision matters, such as specific plans, subdivision maps, conditional use permits and rezones.

The Planning Commission is comprised of seven residents appointed by the City Council and meets on the first and third Wednesday of each month at 3 p.m. in the City Council Chambers located at 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive.

Agendas are posted 72 hours in advance of the Planning Commission meeting and minutes are available after approval. In addition, the city offers residents and visitors the opportunity to view Planning Commission meetings via the city livestream
