Yuba 2050 Community Questionnaire

Introduction:
We are updating the Yuba County General Plan and the Plumas Lake Specific Plan, and we are seeking your input through this questionnaire! These plan updates will establish a shared Vision for the future, and guide development, public safety, housing, transportation, economic growth, and natural resource conservation in unincorporated Yuba County—your voice matters!

These plans will involve coordination with regional agencies and organizations and will focus on the unincorporated portions of the County. They will not make changes within incorporated cities such as Marysville or Wheatland.

The General Plan and Plumas Lake Specific Plan updates will continue through 2026, with additional ways to participate throughout the process. Future engagement opportunities will be shared on the County’s website and through project communications so the community can stay involved.

We appreciate your participation in this questionnaire—thank you for taking the time to share your perspective!

This questionnaire is available in English and Spanish. Please use the dropdown menu in the top right corner of your screen to select your preferred language.
