Martinez 21st Century
General Plan Update Task Force to be formed
The City of Martinez is updating its General Plan. A Task Force, similar to the one assembled for the recent update to the City's Housing Element, is being formed to oversee the development of a new General Plan. The goal is to form a Task Force that represents the different interests and geographic areas of the City. Task Force members will play a key role in the process and provide a valuable service to the community. The Task Force will meet regularly, generally no more than once a month, until completion of the new General Plan.
