Seven Big Ideas

In anticipation of the Draft General Plan release, the City has prepared a newsletter that illustrates how the updated General Plan compares with the current General Plan.

The newsletter describes the following Seven Big Ideas:

  • Big Idea #1: The Plan is based on the Spirit of Rancho Cucamonga Guiding Principles.


  • Big Idea #2: The Plan celebrates a healthy Mind, Body, and Earth.


  • Big Idea #3: The Plan provides for a circulation system based on transportation choices.


  • Big Idea #4: The Plan incorporates policies that will meet or exceed State sustainability mandates.


  • Big Idea #5: The Plan emphasizes historic and neighborhood preservation as a core value.


  • Big Idea #6: The Plan envisions a Foothill Boulevard that is economically vibrant and environmentally sustainable.


  • Big Idea #7: The Plan is transparent and friendly to all users, and facilitates community participation.
