Dana Point City Council approves zoning changes for Victoria Boulevard project

Dana Point City Council took significant steps towards urban development and public safety during its meeting on April 1, 2025. The council approved two key ordinances aimed at amending zoning regulations and establishing new speed limits within the city.

The first ordinance involves a zone change for the property located at 26126 Victoria Boulevard. This change will transition the zoning designation from Community Facility and Recreation to the Victoria Boulevard Specific Plan. The council also authorized the submission of a Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA 20-0002) for approval by the California Coastal Commission. This move is expected to facilitate future development in the area, aligning with the city’s growth objectives.

In addition, the council approved the Victoria Boulevard Specific Plan, which will be incorporated as Appendix G of the zoning code. This plan includes modifications suggested by the California Coastal Commission, ensuring compliance with state regulations.

Another important decision made during the meeting was the amendment of the Dana Point Municipal Code, specifically Chapter 12.16. This amendment establishes new speed limits throughout the city, aiming to enhance public safety for residents and visitors alike.

The council also addressed routine matters through a consent calendar, which was approved without public objections. Notably, a letter from the Western States Regional Council of Carpenters was reviewed, confirming that no additional environmental documentation was necessary for the approved actions.

As the city moves forward with these developments, residents can expect changes that will impact urban planning and safety measures in Dana Point. The council's decisions reflect a commitment to responsible growth and community welfare.
