Urban Planning and Zoning Code Update Services

The City of Redondo Beach is moving forward with urban planning initiatives aimed at addressing housing affordability by revising its General Plan and Zoning Ordinance to create new high-density residential and mixed-use zoning districts. This effort is part of a broader strategy to increase housing supply through denser, more efficient land use, particularly in areas well-served by transit and amenities. The work involves drafting a comprehensive addendum that aligns with state housing goals, streamlines development pathways, and ensures compatibility with surrounding communities while promoting walkability and sustainable growth. The contract calls for expert urban planning and zoning code update services under NAICS code 541340, which encompasses architectural, engineering, and related services. Although this is a subcontract, it operates under the authority of the City of Redondo Beach in California and focuses exclusively on implementation within the city limits. The initiative seeks to transform underutilized or low-density areas into vibrant, mixed-use neighborhoods that include affordable housing components, with the goal of meeting regional housing needs while maintaining local character and infrastructure capacity. Development is expected to follow state-mandated timelines and regulatory frameworks for housing element compliance.
