General Plan & Zoning

The City’s 2022 General Plan Land Use Element designates the project site as District Center-High (DC-5) within the South Bristol Street Focus Area. Development in this area is intended to provide urban retail, residential, mixed-use, and employment centers with an intensity of up to 5.0 floor area ratio (FAR) and/or 125 dwelling units per acre. Mixed-use projects may be vertical or horizontal. The General Plan allows for a maximum height of 25 stories.

 The project site is zoned as Specific Development Plan Number 48 (SD-48) which was adopted in 1989 and was last amended in 1997. The Village Santa Ana Specific Plan would replace SD-48 as the zoning for The Village and would contain the development standards, permitted uses and administrative processes for future development at the project site.
