Kensington-Talmadge Planning Group
The Kensington-Talmadge Planning Group is officially recognized by the City of San Diego to represent community interests when implementing the Mid-City Communities Plan for Kensington and Talmadge. The planning group consists of 13 members elected by the community (residents, business operators, and property owners) for 2-year terms — 6 elected in the odd years, 7 elected in the even years. Our bylaws can be found under the “Documents” tab. See Article V for our complete election rules.
Next Meeting via Zoom:
December 16th, 2024 at 6:30 PM
Our Community Plan Update is underway!
Here's why it matters...
The City is currently updating the Mid-City Communities plan which is a once-in-a-generation process that began in summer 2024 and is scheduled to end in fall 2026. In it, the City may propose zoning changes, and may or may not address other planning issues in the community. To assist, the City selected a 16-member working group to represent the community.
​
This process started with the compilation of an “Existing Conditions Atlas” and Appendix for Mid-City, and a letter of response from the Kensington-Talmadge Planning Group. A draft plan is scheduled for release in midyear 2025.
