Panhandle Annexation and Planned Unit Development

The project proposes the construction of 165 single-unit dwellings on a 40-acre parcel within the Panhandle Planned Unit Development in Sacramento, California, under the Single-Unit Dwelling R-1-PUD and Single Unit or Duplex Dwelling R-1A-PUD zoning designations and the Suburban Neighborhood Low Density general plan land use category. The site encompasses three distinct land use subcategories within the PUD—Estate, Traditional, and Village—each allowing specific density ranges, lot sizes, and development patterns that align with the proposed low-density residential character. All dwellings are designed to comply with height, setback, and lot coverage requirements of the applicable zoning districts and PUD guidelines, ensuring consistency with the neighborhood’s intended aesthetic and functional standards. Architectural finishes will include stucco siding, stone veneer, and decorative elements to meet the Panhandle PUD’s design guidelines and maintain visual cohesion across the development. The project is part of the broader Panhandle Annexation and Planned Unit Development initiative, originally approved under Z24-043 and later modified by SCR25-0006, and is currently in the planning phase with a posted forecast date of June 11, 2026. Primary contact for the City of Sacramento is Senior Planner Charles Tschudin, with Tina McCauslin of Beazer serving as the applicant. The development is located in Sacramento, California, and is intended to provide a cohesive, high-quality residential community that adheres strictly to established zoning, subdivision, and architectural standards without requiring additional variances or exceptions.
