The City Council passed the much discussed and difficult to understand Land Use Element. The real work is in front of us. We will now have the responsibility to discuss the zoning, urban design and green zones overlay. We’ll be posting engagement and information opportunities in the days ahead. In the meantime, the East 7th Street Collaboration will review the next steps for our adjoining neighborhoods of Rose Park, Rose Park South, AOC7, Craftsman Village and North Alamitos Beach Neighborhood groups.

There are a couple of certificate of appropriateness applications for our two historic districts on the agenda at the next Cultural Heritage Commission meeting. For those unfamiliar with the process and especially if you are planning to change the foot print of your home in the historic district it is recommended that you check out how the the Commission works.
