The Santa Ana Planning Commission will have a special meeting on Monday, March 30, 2020, at 5:30 p.m., in which the public will be able to participate remotely.

Due to Governor Gavin Newsom’s Executive Order and the City Council’s Proclamation of Local Emergency, the City can no longer offer an in-person meeting location for the community to attend public meetings.

You can access the agenda by visiting: www.santa-ana.org/cc/city-meetings (located under Upcoming Events).

The City is offering three remote ways to participate: YouTube Live, phone and email. Below is information on how to participate, and you can learn more by visiting www.santa-ana.org/cc/city-meetings/virtual-meetings.
