City Council to Hire Consultant to Look at Expanding Agoura Hills' Boundaries

The Agoura Hills City Council is scheduled to consider hiring a consultant to look at expanding the city’s eventual borders.

On Tuesday’s special meeting agenda is an item to spend $17,600 to hire Planning Plus of La Crescenta, a consultant to study expanding the city’s sphere of influence by 627 acres for possible annexation in the future. The land is located east of the city.

The study will look at such a move from technical, political, financial and environmental standpoints, according to a staff report.

The city received two bids, with Planning Plus submitting the more qualified and less expensive of the two, according to city staff.

The meeting is scheduled for 4 p.m. at City Hall, 30001 Ladyface Court, Agoura Hills.
