Doheny Village

On July 20, 2021, the City Council adopted the Doheny Village Zoning Code Update(PDF, 570KB), which involves modifications to the City’s General Plan Land Use Element and inclusion of a new chapter in the Dana Point Municipal Code, Chapter 9.14 Doheny Village Districts. The Update was adopted with unanimous support from elected officials and community stakeholders.

In December 2021, the California Coastal Commission (CCC) deemed the Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA) complete and approved a one-year time extension to March 2023 for CCC review and consideration of the LCPA application. Once the LCPA is approved by CCC, the Update will take effect.

Several programs identified on the Doheny Village Capital Improvement Plan(PDF, 177KB) have either been completed or initiated. Enhanced pedestrian lighting has been installed along Camino Capistrano. The City acquired the open space parcel located at the corner of Doheny Park Road and PCH, which has been updated with new landscape and fencing. The Doheny Village Public Art Program will kick-off with a new public mural to be installed at the corner of Las Vegas Avenue and Doheny Park Road in February 2022. City staff is preparing the design RFP for the Doheny Park Road at PCH Connectivity Project in coordination with Caltrans.
