Pocket Area Community Plan

Over half (2,560 acres) of the land in this area is designated for low density residential uses, with another 552 acres designated for medium and high density uses. Commercial and Office designations have the largest amounts of vacant land at 22 acres and 16 acres, respectively. There is a total of 147 acres (three percent) vacant of the 5,084 acres in the plan area.

Review Efforts

In March 2007, the Sacramento City Council authorized staff to expand work on the 2030 General Plan to include a review of the city's community plans. This review transformed the community plans from stand-alone documents (separate from the 1988 General Plan) into chapters of the 2030 General Plan.

The process involved removing redundant or conflicting community plan policies and creating a consistent outline for all community plans to follow in the future.

The community plan chapters serve primarily as placeholders for future work, if and when such efforts are approved and funded by the Sacramento City Council.
