Laguna Beach 2030: A Framework for Strategic Planning

This report summarizes the results of the Visioning Process and presents a concise compilation of the common thinking that has grown out of this extensive community outreach. It identifies the issues around which there appear to be substantial consensus, and synthesizes into a "Vision Framework" - a framework that, on one hand, expresses the "common vision" as articulated by the community, and on the other hand, provides a conceptual tool that we can use to organize our thoughts as we begin the next phase of the project - the Strategic Planning Phase.
