Document Description: Amendment to the Lynwood Transit Area Specific Plan to consistently zone all parcels with the project area from industrial, open space to residential to West Town Center to create a zone that allows for various uses. The project site is divided between two clusters of parcels. The Alameda Triangle portion of the project is located easterly adjacent to Alameda Street between Fernwood Avenue and Imperial Highway. The smaller portion is located across the Triangle, south of and adjacent to the intersection of Fernwood Ave and Imperial Hwy. Total project site area (12 parcels) is 13.8 acres. The proposed project would allow for the development of ~632 dwelling units (affordable and market-rate apartments and market rate townhomes) and 25,000 sf of commercial/retail space.
