Planning Directors Association of Orange County

PDAOC is a membership organization consisting of Planning and Community Development Directors from the cities located in Orange County, California and the County of Orange.

PDAOC offers a wide variety of training opportunities for its members including monthly lunch programs, the Planners Training Series and the annual Planning Officials Forum.  These programs provide opportunities for technical skills training, and AICP certification maintenance, as well as acting as venues for the presentation of broader planning concepts and ideas.  

PDAOC gives back to the planning community through charitable programs, such as the Annual Memorial Golf Tournament, and collaborates with many other professional associations in the planning and local government fields. 

UPDATE!
Join us as Marnie Primmer shares how OCCOG can help your city in the areas of GIS Mapping Services, creation of permit-ready ADU plans, and funding for potential staff augmentation.  Registration is now open for the Lunch & Learn Webinar to be held virtually on June 17, 2021.  For more information, please go to Events / Monthly Lunch Programs above.

Also, the 2021 PDAOC Agency Roster is now available here and on the About PDAOC webpage.
