Hot Topics
SCAG''s Arrow Highway Corridor Project
This project was completed in June 2008. It can be accessed here.
SCAG''s Community Profile Project
SCAG staff is currently undertaking the City Profile Project to prepare an individual profile report for each of the 167 member cities in the region. The purpose of the reports is to provide cities updated information to support their planning efforts. The reports focus on the change of the cities since 2000 in comparison with the applicable county. The data and analysis of each city profile report includes the following categories:
- Population (e.g., growth, age distribution, ethnic composition)
- Households (e.g., household size, household income distribution)
- Housing (e.g., median home price)
- Employment (e.g., jobs by sector, average salary per job)
- Retail Sales (e.g., retail sales per person)
- Education (e.g., school enrollment)
During early June 2008, SCAG staff completed a template report using the City of Anaheim as an example. SCAG staff has worked with the City of Anaheim and Orange County COG TAC to develop the template report. The template report was then reviewed by the SCAG Community, Economic and Human Development (CEHD) Policy Committee and Regional Council at their June 5, 2008 meeting. Staff is currently scheduled to complete all the 167 city profile reports by Fall 2008, and each city will have the opportunity to review the draft profile report before it is finalized. Below are copies of each of the San Gabriel Valley cities draft city profiles. These will be discussed and reviewed at the October Planners'' TAC.
