Subject: City of Oakland Design Guidelines -- Public Hearing on July 17th
To interested parties of the City’s Zoning Update process,
On March 17, 2013, the Design Review Committee (a subcommittee of the City of Oakland Planning Commission) recommended that a draft version of “Guidelines for Commercial Areas and Corridors” be forwarded to the full Planning Commission for final approval. These proposed guidelines expand on the new Zoning Regulations by providing design direction that descriptively and graphically expresses the City’s expectations for new development on the commercial corridors.
The Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on July 17, 2013 at 6:00 PM in Hearing Room 1 in City Hall regarding the draft guidelines. The purpose of the meeting is to receive input from the public, and to decide whether to adopt the Guidelines as a tool to evaluate projects on the major corridors and commercial areas.
For your review, the following is the web page containing the draft design guidelines:
