Picture Culver City: General Plan 2045 and Zoning Code Update

The City of Culver City is implementing the Picture Culver City: General Plan 2045 and Zoning Code Update, which includes the Fox Hills Specific Plan. This initiative establishes a comprehensive framework to guide future growth, land use, and public improvements within the Fox Hills area. The plan focuses on creating a connected, livable mixed-use community by updating zoning and policies for private development and setting standards for streetscapes and mobility, all while preserving the area's established green character. Key strategic goals include prioritizing pedestrian and bicycle improvements, expanding the Culver City Transit Center, and establishing new mobility hubs. The project is governed by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), with an Environmental Impact Report Addendum prepared by PlaceWorks confirming that the plan will not have a significant environmental effect. Future developments under this framework must adhere to the California Building Standards Code, CALGreen, CCR Title 24 energy efficiency requirements, and emissions standards set by the EPA, CARB, and SCAQMD. While the Specific Plan provides the standards for future growth and does not propose specific projects at this time, related activities in the area include the 6201 Bristol Parkway Project, a mixed-use development featuring 846 residential units and community commercial space. The primary point of contact for this effort is Advance Planning Manager Troy Evangelho.
