Vision Statement
For the next 30 years, Central Rialto will continue to be the heart of the City, defined by its hometown character and functioning as an important job center and transportation hub. The historic Route 66, Foothill Boulevard, will continue to serve as a gateway corridor through the City and to the downtown core. The Foothill Central Specific Plan area will continue to evolve as a lively mixed-use destination that integrates housing for all incomes and ages with shopping, restaurants, entertainment, and civic and arts uses and preserves existing landmarks.
The Specific Plan will be a tool to implement high-quality development standards along Foothill Boulevard and within Central Rialto that complement and enrich a public realm that is safe, green, and beautiful, incorporating landscaping, lighting, and public art. Streets and sidewalks will be designed for all ages, abilities, and modes including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit, and cars.
