Document Description
The project proposes a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change that would amend the General Plan Land Use and Zone Maps to reflect adoption of the Palmdale Transit Village Specific Plan. Development of the specific plan would result in a transit-oriented village near the City's newly constructed Metrolink train and AVTA bus transfer station. The area could potentially be developed with up to 1,027 new housing units, 40,000 square feet of stand alone neighborhood retail uses, 93,000 square feet of neighborhood retail mixed use, 353,000 square feet of stand alone low rise office and 93,000 square feet of low rise mixed-use offices uses. Development would also involve circulation improvements including a pedestrian bridge traversing the Union Pacific Railroad tracks, landscaping and extending the existing box culvert and rail platform approximately 100 feet north of the existing platform.
