City meeting is on April 1

Newport Beach residents are invited to a workshop April 1 to discuss the draft of the city’s updated general plan, which will guide development for the next 20 years or so. City officials and a committee of residents have been working since 2002 to create the plan. It describes what types of development and how much would be allowed in each part of the city.

The workshop will cover the major changes in the plan, which could appear on the November ballot for voter approval. The workshop will be held from 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m. at Oasis Senior Center, 800 Marguerite Ave., Corona del Mar. For information on the general plan, call (949) 644-3219 or go to www.nbvision2025.com.
