El Monte, CA
The Project. An update to the Rural Homesteads Overlay District to establish standards and guidelines to preserve the rural residential character of an ‘urban homestead’ neighborhood originally established under a program of Franklin Roosevelt..
The Result. An updated set of land use regulations that ensure new development serves to preserve the rural character, promote a low-density, rural residential lifestyle, and ensure continued availability of lots that allow animal keeping and agricultural cultivation and retain the area’s historic homestead heritage.
The Team.
