Fall 2018 -     
​Winter 2019

Past Events

The Department of City Planning has taken a significant step in its process to update the Hollywood Community Plan, releasing on November 15 a draft Environmental Impact Report, and refreshed versions of the Community Plan policies and zoning tools.

The draft Community Plan and proposed land use and zoning regulations – or the Proposed Plan – lay out the direction of Hollywood’s future through the year 2040. Key goals include promoting Hollywood’s entertainment and tourism industries for economic development, protecting historic and cultural resources, and encouraging a variety of mobility options. 

The Proposed Plan recognizes Hollywood’s roles as a community of neighborhoods, and as a regional center in the City of Los Angeles. To address anticipated housing, population, and employment growth, the Proposed Plan would allow increased development potential in central Hollywood and along major commercial corridors near transit systems, while preserving single-family residential, hillsides, and other low-scale areas.
