Development Review Case No. DR-8-24-15601 and Density Bonus

Development Review Case No. DR-8-24-15601 involves the construction of 12 affordable, attached two-story multi-family dwellings at 9741-9747 Walnut Street in Bellflower, California. Managed by the City of Bellflower Planning Division and executed by Olive Crest, a non-profit public benefit corporation, the project utilizes a Density Bonus and Development Standards Waivers to exceed the base zoning allowance of two dwellings. The project is designated as a categorically exempt infill development under CEQA Section 15332, as it is consistent with the local General Plan Medium Density Residential designation and the Transit Oriented Development Specific Plan. The project requires strict adherence to local environmental and operational standards, including compliance with BMC § 117 noise ordinances, which prohibit construction between 6 p.m. and 7 a.m. on weekdays, 6 p.m. and 8 a.m. on Saturdays, and all day on Sundays and holidays. Additional requirements include following South Coast AQMD standards for dust suppression and air quality, and ensuring that traffic impacts remain below threshold levels. Rowena Genilo-Concepcion, the Planning Manager for the City of Bellflower, serves as the primary point of contact for this administrative land use approval.
