Planning Commission Recruitment


The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is accepting applications to fill four vacancies on the Planning Commission. These are volunteer, non-paying positions with terms of office ending in June 2024. However, Commissioners receive a stipend of $135 per month.

The seven-member Planning Commission makes decisions on specific private land use planning applications such as subdivision maps, variances, and conditional use permits; reviews environmental assessments, such as Environmental Impact Reports and Negative Declarations; makes decisions on development projects, zoning changes, grading and neighborhood compatibility applications, view restoration permits, utility projects and right-of-way encroachments in the City; considers appeals of staff decisions on land use planning applications, and considers wireless telecommunication permit applications in the public right-of-way.  

 
The committee meets on the second and fourth Tuesday of the month at 7 p.m. in McTaggart Hall at Fred Hesse Jr. Community Park, with meetings held in a hybrid in-person/virtual format.
