General Plan Safety Element Update
El Dorado County is in the process of updating its Public Health, Safety, and Noise Element (Safety Element). The Safety Element is one of the seven mandatory elements of the El Dorado County General Plan. State law requires that the County update the Safety Element upon revision of the Housing Element, which it updated in August 2021. Updates to the Safety Element will meet the requirements of California Government Code Section 65302(g) as updated by Senate Bills 1241, 379, and 1035, and will be consistent with the recently updated Housing Element.
This webpage provides the most current information on the Safety Element update process. It will provide you with background information, documents, resources, and opportunities to be involved in the process and provide feedback on the Safety Element.
