What are the MHPA Land Use Adjacency Guidelines?
The MHPA Land Use Adjacency Guidelines (LUAGs) are guidelines that will be addressed, on a project by project basis, during either the planning (new development) or management (new and existing development) stages to minimize land use impacts and maintain the function of the MHPA. These guidelines are located in Section 1.4.3 of the City’s MSCP Subarea Plan (March 1997), and include the following issues areas: 1) drainage; 2) toxics; 3) lighting; 4) noise; 5) barriers; 6) invasive species; 7) brush management; and, 8) grading/land development. For premises that are located within or adjacent to the City’s MHPA, the project must demonstrate compliance with the MHPA land use adjacency guidelines to address potential indirect effects to the MHPA through features incorporated into the project and/or permit conditions.
