The Twin Lakes area of Los Angeles County was established in the 1920s as a rural resort area in the northern San Fernando Valley. The Twin Lakes Community Plan addresses infrastructure and development concerns, and guides development so that the rural atmosphere of the Twin Lakes community is retained. The Plan was adopted in May 1991.

What is a Community Plan?

Community plans cover smaller geographic areas within a larger Planning Area identified by the Los Angeles County 2035 General Plan (General Plan) and address neighborhood and/or community-level policy issues.

The Community Plan, as a component of the overall General Plan, serves to provide governmental decision makers with a local perspective, and with guidelines appropriate to local issues. For example, land use and circulation policies will be more detailed and specific. However, decisions made must reflect the direction set by both the countywide General Plan and the Community Plan.
