The Orange County Registrar of Voters has assigned “JJ” as the official letter designation for the Yorba Linda Local Control, Residential Neighborhood, Open Space Protection Measure that will be on the 2024 November ballot.
Voters can expect to see the following language for Measure JJ on the ballot:
“To maintain local control over land use decisions; protect open space, single-family residential neighborhood character, height limits; limit traffic; shall Yorba Linda retain voter-approved development restrictions, adopt land use plans developed by residents including mixed-use housing, retaining/attracting businesses at Savi Ranch; limiting new housing density in areas including Richfield/Christmas Tree Farm and Buena Vista, vacant land at Fairmont/Quarter House Drive; requiring developer fees supporting parks/schools and public oversight?”
The City is hosting three in-person community meetings to share information about the revised Housing Element and Measure JJ. The community meetings are scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. on the following dates:
- September 4, 2024 at the East Lake Village Community Association (Clubhouse)
- September 12, 2024 at the Yorba Linda Community Center (Yorba Room)
- September 19, 2024 at Bryant Ranch Elementary School (Multi-Purpose Room)
Placing Measure JJ on the ballot aligns with Measure B, Yorba Linda’s Right-to-Vote Amendment, which allows voters to approve or reject major adjustments to the City’s land use documents.
