-------------------------------------------------------------
The Highland Area Plan was started in August 1983 at the
direction of the Mayor and Common Council. The Highland
Study Area is approximately 29 square miles in area and is
roughly 60 percent County and 40 percent City. The same
ratio applies to housing and population. The Study Area
extends east from Waterman Avenue to the Forest Service
boundary on the north and east, and south to Norton Air Force
Base and the Santa Ana River.
The planning process started with a land use survey of the
entire study area. This included field reconnaissance,
aerial photos and tax assessor printouts. All land uses were
mapped and structural conditions noted. The City worked with
the County Land Management Department to put the land use
information into their computer system. Existing General
Plan and zoning data were also added to the computer program.
The County provided reports and maps based on all of this
data.
Staff collected and analyzed data for five Technical Reports
which will be used in the preparation of the Environmental
Impact Report. The Reports include: Public Services and
Facilities, Historic and Demographic Perspective, Traffic and
Circulation, Environmental Factors and Land Use.
In April, 1984, a Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) was formed
with twenty-five members representing City and County neigh-
borhoods. A Technical Advisory Committee was also formed to
advise staff on technical matters. The CAC began by estab-
lishing issue statements of problems/concerns in the Highland
Area. The Committee then developed Goals, Objectives and
Policies pertaining to the issues. This process extended to
January, 1985.
From February to July, 1985, staff prepared three land use
alternatives for the Committee's review. The preparation
process included meetings with County staff to establish the
