 The City of El Segundo is preparing for El Nino, a naturally occurring climate pattern that may bring wetter and stormier conditions to California.
While El Nino does not mean that every community will experience heavy rain or flooding, severe weather can still occur. Preparing ahead of time can help you and your household stay safe and respond more effectively.

El Segundo | Vision 2050 is the City effort to update the General Plan Land Use Element. The General Plan is El Segundo's long-term blueprint for how the city grows and evolves, covering topics like housing, transportation, safety, and parks. While the full plan includes a wide range of topics, this effort focuses on the Land Use Element, which identifies how land can be used. The update will help shape El Segundo's look, feel, and function over the next 25 years.
