City Wants Feedback on New Code Changes

citylogo_sealSanta Clarita residents, businesses and community groups are invited to review the proposed changes to the Santa Clarita Municipal Code and provide valuable feedback at an upcoming Open House hosted from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, March 13, in the Century Room at City Hall, located at 23920 Valencia Boulevard.


The Open House will review six different areas of proposed changes in the Municipal Code including neighborhood preservation, floodplain management, film, graffiti, parks and recreation, and administration.


“As our community continues to grow, it becomes necessary to update the Municipal Code in order to streamline processes and make it easier for staff and community members to find information they may need,” said Mayor Bob Kellar.  “I encourage residents to attend this community meeting and provide feedback on the proposed changes before the updates are presented to City Council.”


The proposed revisions to the Municipal Code include deleting redundant codes, amending current codes and adopting new codes. Existing definitions are also proposed to be consistent with State and Federal regulations. The proposed changes to the Santa Clarita Municipal Code are expected to be presented to City Council in spring 2013.
