The South Bay Planning Area is located in the southwest corner of Los Angeles County and is one of the 11 Planning Areas established by the General Plan. The South Bay Area Plan (SBAP) will be a community-based plan developed to respond to the unique and diverse character of the seven unincorporated communities within the planning area. The communities include Alondra Park/El Camino Village, Del Aire/Wiseburn, Hawthorne Island, La Rambla, Lennox, West Carson, and Westfield/Academy Hills. The area plan will develop policies for future community growth and development. The SBAP will attempt to address issues facing the planning area including traffic congestion, air quality concerns, lack of developable land, goods movement, climate change, environmental justice, and noise impacts.
