What is the Communities Plan / Action Guide?
As part of the major effort to create a Countywide Plan, San Bernardino County is working with residents, businesses, and organizations to develop the Homestead Valley Communities Plan / Action Guide.
The Communities Plan / Action Guide sets forth the Communities’ values and aspirations, and provides an action plan to help Homestead Valley continue to grow into the type of community that current and future residents desire. The action plan places a focus on self-reliance, grass-roots action, and implementation, allowing the Communities to take the lead in moving actions forward.
Goals, policies, land use, and infrastructure decisions will be addressed in the Policy Plan of the Countywide Plan..

1. How does this Communities Plan / Action Guide affect current or pending development applications in or around the Homestead Valley Communities? Who can I talk to about current or pending development applications?
The Communities Planning process will not be completed until 2019. You should continue to monitor, review, and comment on development applications through the current public review process. Please contact the Land Use Services Duty Planner by email to be directed to the appropriate County staff person.
2. When will the Draft Communities Plan/Action Guide be available to review?
In October 2017, the results were released for public review as a draft communities plan. In response to public comments, the plans were renamed Communities Action Guides. This name change along with other revisions that resulted from the public review are incorporated in the 2018 Draft Communities Action Guide, available now for review.
