Laguna Beach’s downtown might look a little different when the Downtown Action Plan is eventually approved by the City Council, but for now, conceptual plans are back to consultant SWA Group to prepare the first draft. The presentation detailed more than 20 conceptual projects for the downtown area that could involve changes to tree wells, pavement, stormwater harvesting practices, crosswalks and bicycle infrastructure. The projects are estimated to cost from $163,670 to $1.1 million and span most of the major downtown streets. AdvertisementThe Downtown Action Plan is not to be confused with the Downtown Specific Plan, which underwent its final review by the Planning Commission in November. Iseman said the conceptual projects would be good in the long term but that many of them would have to wait.
