Document Description
The Arden Arcade Incorporation Committee proposes that the new City of Arden-Arcade would be a General Law City with a city manager form of government. Section 57376 of the State Government Code requires the city council of a newly incorporated city to immediately adopt all county ordinances (such as the Sacramento County Zoning Ordinance) for a period of 120 days after incorporation or until such time as the city council has enacted ordinances superseding county ordiances. LAFCo indicates that this process also transfers the policies and land use designations of the adopted Sacramento County General Plan to the new city, as Section 65360 of the State Government Code provides that the city council of a newly incorporated city has 30 months following incorporation to adopt its own General Plan. As a result, the act of incorporation will not alter the existing county zoning designations or proposed land uses or development which is currently authorized to occur within the Arden Arcade incorporation area. After that time, the City may adopt its own General Plan.
