Document Description
The New Walnut Village Specific Plan establishes land use regulations, permitted uses, design guidelines public improvements and permitting procedures. Comprehensive design guidelines and development standards and regulations guide and regulate land uses, site planning, landscape, and architectural character within the Specific Plan area to establish expectation of design quality. The original Specific Plan has undergone numerous amendments since the original adoption in 1983. The proposed Project will rescind the original specific plan and readopt the new specific plan to include mixed-use strategies and up-zoning in order to increase residential density within undeveloped or underdeveloped portions of the Walnut Village Specific Plan. Adoption of a new specific plan will clarify regulations for existing development as well as provide development standards for new development on approximately 53 acres of the 342-acre of the Specific Plan area, which have been identified as developable or capable of redevelopment. The project also includes the removal of the Fontana Auto Center Overlay from approximately 8.5 acres at the southeast corner of Sierra Avenue and South Highland Avenue.
