AVAILABILITY OF MENDOCINO COUNTY Public Survey: Coastal Recreation 

Mendocino County is pleased to announce the launch of a public survey to gather community input on coastal recreation as part of the ongoing update to the County’s Local Coastal Program (LCP). This survey will help the County assess current recreation patterns and anticipate future demand along the Mendocino coastline.

As coastal visitation continues to rise, understanding how residents and visitors use coastal parks, trails, beaches, and access points is essential. Survey responses will guide long-term planning, support coastal resource protection, and help ensure that recreational facilities and access remain sustainable and responsive to community needs.

Public input will directly inform the policies and strategies included in the updated LCP. All residents, visitors, coastal stakeholders, and recreation users are encouraged to participate.

The survey, which consists of 23 questions, is available here: Public Survey: Coastal Recreation in Mendocino County.

To learn more about the Local Coastal Program update, please visit the Local Coastal Program page at the County of Mendocino. General comments may be submitted at anytime via email to LCPUpdate@mendocinocounty.gov.

For questions about this survey, please contact Mark Cliser at Mendocino County Planning & Building Services - 707-234-6650.

Comments will be accepted until January 4^th, 2026
