SCAG has developed its regional geospatial dataset of land use information at the parcel-level (approximately five million parcels) for 197 local jurisdictions in its region. The regional land use dataset is developed (1) to aid in SCAG’s regional transportation planning, scenario planning and growth forecasting, (2) facilitate policy discussion on various planning issues, and (3) enhance information database to better serve SCAG member jurisdictions, research institutes, universities, developers, general public, etc. It is the most frequently and widely utilized SCAG geospatial data. In 2020, SCAG successfully released the final 2016 regional land use dataset, developed for the Final Connect SoCal 2020, the 2020-2045 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS), which includes general plan land use, specific plan land use, zoning code and existing land use information. The 2016 regional land use dataset was reviewed by local jurisdiction, and SCAG staff made every effort to ensure the data reflect local jurisdiction’s input received during the Connect SoCal 2020 Local Input and Envisioning Process.After the successful adoption of Connect SoCal 2020, SCAG has initiated the 2019 regional land use data development process to update parcel-based land use information in preparation for Connect SoCal 2024. From late 2019 to early 2020, SCAG staff obtained the 2019 parcel boundary GIS file and tax roll property information from county assessor’s offices. After months of data standardization and clean-up process, SCAG staff released the 2019 parcel boundary GIS files along with the 2019 Annual Land Use dataset in February 2021. In December 2021, SCAG staff successfully developed the preliminary dataset of the 2019 regional land use data and released the draft SCAG Data/Map Book in May 2022. The preliminary land use data was reviewed by local jurisdictions during the Local Data Exchange (LDX) process for Connect SoCal 2024. As a part of the 2019 regional land use data development process, SCAG staff made every effort to review the local jurisdictions’ inputs and comments and incorporated any updates to the regional land use datasets. The products of this project will be used as one of the key elements for Connect SoCal 2024 plan development, growth forecasting, scenario planning, and SCAG’s policy discussion on various planning issues, as well as Connect SoCal key growth strategy analysis.Note: This dataset is intended for planning purposes only, and SCAG shall incur no responsibility or liability as to the completeness, currentness, or accuracy of this information.
