Chapter 17.114 — SPECIAL PLANNING AREA MAP AND DESCRIPTIONS

The specific plans listed below have been adopted by the city and designated on the zoning map as Specific Plan (SP) with a specific reference number to each adopted plan. This section provides a reference to each adopted specific plan, along with a summary of the unique land use and development standards applicable to each individual specific plan. A full copy of all adopted specific plan documents (and any adopted amendments thereto) shall be kept in the planning department and in the city clerk's office.

• A. Empire Lakes Specific Plan (ELSP). The Empire Lakes Specific Plan was adopted in 1994. It includes 380 acres within the previously adopted industrial specific plan area as Sub-Area 18. The primary purpose of this subsequent specific plan is to provide for a broader mix of land uses than was originally permitted within the industrial area specific plan. The plan was expanded to include such uses as recreational, hotel/conference center, retail, restaurant, and entertainment, as well as office, research and development, and light industrial uses. These uses are intended to surround the existing 18-hole golf course. A subsequent amendment to further expand the use list included limited multi-unit residential development to maximize potential use of the Metrolink station near Milliken Avenue.

• B. Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan (EHNCP). The Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan was adopted by the city council in 2019. The plan area is located along the northeastern edge of the city at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains; west of State Route 15, north of State Route 210, and north of existing residential neighborhoods in the city. The plan area includes 4,393 acres. The plan represents a unique opportunity to permanently preserve unspoiled views of the San Gabriel foothills and mountains, permanently conserve rural open space and habitat resources, secure recreational access to the foothills, while providing unique new neighborhoods that reflect the city's heritage. This plan has been prepared to guide land use and shape new development within the plan area. The community-based vision is for large quantities of conserved rural and natural open space in the plan's 3,603-acre rural/conservation area, underwritten by and in balance with high quality neighborhood development in the 790-acre southerly neighborhood area already surrounded by existing neighborhoods. This area had long been under San Bernardino County's jurisdiction, and the city's interest is to implement this plan for the future of this portion of rural land, preserving much of the foothills for future generations. Please refer to the adopted Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood and Conservation Plan maintained by the planning department and city clerk for comprehensive details.
