Present Land Use
The City is located in Sacramento County and consists of approximately 42.7 square miles within its boundary (see Figure 1). Land uses are regulated under the City General Plan, which was comprehensively updated in 2019. The City General Plan established a Planning Area (approximately 31,238 acres) that includes lands outside the current City limits. Existing land uses in the City consist of residential at varying densities, commercial, office, industrial, park, and open space (see Figure 2). The Planning Area primarily consists of agricultural lands and rural residential uses. Nearby natural open space and habitat areas include the Stone Lakes National Wildlife Refuge and the Sacramento River to the west, the Cosumnes River Preserve to the south, and the Regional County Sanitation District bufferlands to the northwest. Major roadway access to the City is provided by Interstate 5 and State Route 99
