Antelope Valley Areawide General Plan Update

Document Description: The proposed project is a comprehensive update of the Antelope Valley Area Plan. The project includes goals, policies, implementing programs and ordinances. The project covers the unincorporated areas of the Antelope Valley in Los Angeles County and identifies 1) Rural Preserve Areas, where important ecological and agricultural resources will be preserved; 2) Rural Town Areas, where rural character will be protected; 3) Rural Town Centers, where urban commercial uses will be discouraged but rural commercial uses will be incentivized; and 4) Economic Opportunity Areas, where plans for major infrastructure development are underway that necessitate the need for more detailed planning activities in these areas to determine any appropriate land use and zoning changes needed when these infrastructure projects are completed.
