Local Planning Groups
     Planning groups act on behalf of their communities to advise the San Diego County Board of Supervisors in land use matters. While their votes are not considered final, they are often given great weight in final approval of projects and other land use decisions. 
     The groups also often act independently as conduits to the county for opinions about other matters, such as traffic safety or law enforcement problems.
     Planning group members are elected by their communities in regular elections.
     Sponsor groups serve the same function but are appointed by the board of supervisors, usually on the recommendation of the group.
     Both types of community planners must comply with public meeting laws, as must their subcommittees.
