La Habra roundup: Commission acts on minutes and subcommittees; City Council set for zoning vote and contracts
The La Habra Community Services Commission approved its June meeting minutes and elected subcommittee representatives at its July 8 meeting, the only local body to produce recorded decisions in the past two weeks. Several other July 6 meetings remain agenda-only with minutes not yet published.
Community Services Commission — July 8
The Commission took two recorded votes, both passing 5-0:
- Approved the June 10, 2026 meeting minutes.
- Elected members to subcommittees.
Staff also presented updates on summer events and the FY 2026-2027 budget, which was previously approved by the City Council. Commissioners were invited to receive a Parks and Recreation Month proclamation and to sign up for a July 8 blood drive.
July 6 meetings — agendas only, no decisions available
Five bodies met or were scheduled to meet on July 6: City Council, Civic Improvement Authority, Housing Authority, Successor Agency, and Utility Authority. The supplied agenda documents for all five consist of encoded or procedural text with no readable descriptions of agenda items. No specific decisions, discussions, or votes can be identified from the available records. Minutes have not yet been published for these meetings.
Planning Commission — July 13
The Planning Commission agenda lists three items for consideration. Because minutes are not yet published, no outcomes are available:
- Special Event Permit (SEP2L26-0004) for the La Habra Host Lions Club Corn Festival and Parade at El Centro-Lions Park.
- Tentative Tract Map No. 19436 (TTM26-0001) for a five-unit condominium subdivision at 431 West Lambert Road.
- Approval of the Planning Commission meeting minutes from June 8, 2026.
