The Specific Plan Areas dataset represents the boundaries and zoning designations for the three adopted Specific Plan Areas within the City of La Mesa: Downtown Village, Grossmont, and Eastridge. These Specific Plans were established by City Council to provide detailed policy and regulatory guidance that supplements the City’s General Plan, shaping development, design, and land use standards within designated focus areas.

Each polygon feature includes zoning and overlay designations, land use descriptions, and links to the official plan documents, supporting planning decisions, zoning analysis, and integration within the City’s GIS Hub. The dataset documents key adoption details for each plan—Downtown Village (adopted 1990; currently under active update, expected 2025–2026), Grossmont (adopted 1994), and Eastridge (adopted 1989)—and provides the total area boundaries for each plan region. Regular updates ensure this dataset remains a reliable reference for planning staff, developers, and the public when evaluating land use consistency, regulatory compliance, and future development opportunities across La Mesa’s Specific Plan districts.
