Community Plan Areas
Community Plans: Introduction | 11-3
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Each of the community plan areas has unique characteristics, local landmarks, beloved neighborhoods, and community groups that bring people together.

Each of the community plan areas also has its own
issues and opportunities: places that need improved
bicycle connections, vacant sites ripe for development, transit corridors that could be the centerpieces of more vibrant streets. Some of these issues and opportunities overlap with the city as a whole,
and some are specific to the community plan area.

In many cases, a community plan area’s issues and
opportunities can be mostly addressed in citywide
policies in the main body of the General Plan; however, some that pertain to more specific issues of a community plan area—a particular street that could
benefit from development incentives or a particular
park that could be better used, for example—require
more specific policies. The Community Plans address
these types of issues and contain policies that apply
only within the boundaries of each community plan
area. These policies complement and amplify the
General Plan and address community priorities and
location-specific opportunities, and, per State law
requirements, must be consistent with the citywide
goals and policies.

The City of Sacramento has a long history of using
community plans to provide policy direction for the
various areas of the city. In the 1960s, the City Council adopted the city’s first set of twenty-one community plans. In the 1970s, the City Council redrew community plan boundaries, reducing the number of
community plan areas to eleven and establishing a
policy basis for the City to eventually update all of its community plans according to the new boundaries.

When the City adopted the 1988 citywide General
Plan there were seven adopted community plans:

Pocket (1979); Central City (1980); Airport Meadowview (1984); North Sacramento (1984); South Sacramento (1986); North Natomas (1986); and South Natomas (1988). The City adjusted community plan
boundaries again for the 2030 General Plan Update,
reducing the number of community plan areas from
eleven to ten.
11-4 | Community Plans: Introduction
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
In preparing these updated community plans, community input was gathered over the course of the planning process, which included the following:
• In-person community meetings in each of the 10
community plan areas in August 2019;
• Virtual open houses with community plan
area-specific proposals for community members
to comment on in October 2020;
• Community-led engagement using “meetings in
a box,” an engagement toolkit designed for use
by community groups, neighborhood associations, or friends to gather at a convenient time and location to share their ideas and proposals
for the future of the city; and
• Ongoing correspondence from individuals and
neighborhood organizations as well as citywide
outreach activities.

Each of the 10 community plans is organized as
follows:

Community Location
Each community plan begins with a brief description
of the plan boundaries and area.

Development and Planning History
This background section describes the area’s history
and current characteristics.

Community Vision
The community vision distills feedback from community outreach into a vision statement for the community in 2040.

Community Issues and Opportunities
This section includes a list of the major issues and
opportunities for the community plan area identified
by residents, with annotations noting where these
issues are addressed within the General Plan; sections describing land use and placemaking; economic development; mobility; and youth, parks, recreation
and open space policies and how they are expected
to impact the community, both at the General Plan
and Community Plan level.

Community Policies
At the end of each community plan are the collected
policies for each area. Land use, development intensity, roadway allocation, and park access maps are included in each section, where relevant. These are
not regulatory maps, but are zoom-ins of the maps
included in the main body of the General Plan, and
are intended to help to clarify the plans and show
these topics at a neighborhood scale.

Relevant Plans and Studies
The City conducts studies and produces reports to
collect and evaluate information related to specific
issues. These studies and reports are undertaken
at the direction of the City Council, as needed, to
address a specific issue or topic for a community
plan area. This section lists the relevant plans and
studies that are directly pertinent to the community
plan area.

Community Plans: Introduction | 11-5
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Community Plan Organizing Goal and Policies
The following goal and policies provide direction for
the preparation, update, and amendment of community plans, as well as the role of community plans.

GOAL
Goal EJ-1: Maintain community plans that provide
community specific policy direction
within the framework of citywide
General Plan goals and policies.

Policies
CP 1.1.1 Community Plan Intent. The City
shall adopt and periodically update
a community plan chapter for each
community plan area that supplements
citywide policies, to reflect communityand neighborhood-specific issues and provide conceptual direction for the
development of identified opportunity
areas.

CP 1.1.2 Community Involvement. The City shall
ensure that the process for updating
community plans includes broad
community involvement by such groups
as plan area residents, property owners,
business owners, civic and community
groups, public and nonprofit agencies, and
City departments.

CP 1.1.3 Community Plan Consistency. The City
shall ensure that every community plan is
consistent with citywide General Plan goals
and policies and does not include duplicate
or redundant policies and standards
addressed in the citywide General Plan.

CP 1.1
CP 1.1.4 Land Use Direction. The City shall not
prepare or adopt separate community plan
land use diagrams (land use, minimum
density, minimum FAR, and maximum FAR
maps) as part of the community planning
process. Community plans shall refer to
and be consistent with the General Plan
Land Use Diagrams. As community plans
are prepared, updated, or amended, the
City shall review the citywide Land Use
Diagrams and shall amend the diagrams,
as appropriate, using the designations in
the citywide Land Use and Placemaking
Element to reflect community issues
related to infill, redevelopment, reuse, and
new growth.

SPECIAL STUDY AREAS
Beyond the boundaries of the 2040 General Plan, the
City has defined Special Study Areas that are adjacent to existing city limits. These unincorporated areas are of interest to the City, as the planning of
the areas necessitates a coordinated effort by the
City and County (Map SSA-1). In some cases, part
or all of these areas may eventually be annexed by
the City. For each Special Study Area, the discussion
includes a brief description of existing conditions,
background information that explains why the area
is considered a “special study area,” and information
related to managing the future of the areas through
City and County coordination. The five Special Study
Areas are listed below:
• Arden Arcade Study Area
• East Study Area
• Fruitridge Florin Study Area
• Natomas Basin Study Area
• Town of Freeport Study Area
These areas are mapped and described at the end of
this chapter.

COMMUNITY LOCATION
The Arden Arcade Community Plan Area straddles
the northeast border of the City of Sacramento and
Sacramento County. Approximately 6 square miles
of the 22-square-mile Area is within the City limit.

As shown in Map CP-AA-1, it is bounded loosely by
the American River to the south, Arden Creek to the
north, the California Exposition and State Fair (“Cal
Expo”) and Arden Fair Mall to the west, and Fair Oaks
Boulevard, Ethan Way and Auburn Boulevard to the
east; the remainder of the Area is in unincorporated
Sacramento County. Unincorporated areas of Arden
Arcade are some of the most intensely developed
areas of unincorporated Sacramento County, containing suburban residential neighborhoods and developed commercial corridors. (These areas are
included as part of this Community Plan Area due to
the overlap in provision of public services and utilities to the unincorporated community; for example, the
City has American River water rights that have a fixed
boundary that includes some unincorporated areas
adjacent to the city such as Arden Arcade.) Interstate
80 (“I-80”) runs in the north-south direction near the
eastern edge of the community alongside the Sacramento Regional Transit (SacRT) Blue Line light rail, connecting Arden Arcade to Downtown Sacramento
and the greater city. Major thoroughfares include
Watt Avenue, Marconi Avenue, Arden Way, and Fair
Oaks Boulevard. The most prominent landmarks
within Arden Arcade are Point West, Arden Fair Mall,
the American River Parkway, and Cal Expo, which has
been home to the California State Fair since 1968.

Community Plans: Arden Arcade | 11-AA-3
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Arden Arcade is home to over 101,000 residents,
approximately 12,500 of whom are residents of the
city of Sacramento, and about 21,500 jobs within
City limits, the majority of which are in the professional and business services; trade, transportation, and utilities; and education and health sectors. The
area was largely agricultural for the first part of the twentieth century; the incorporated areas of Arden
Arcade were annexed by the City of Sacramento
between 1949 and 1970. Incorporated Arden Arcade
is made up of nine neighborhoods, (Del Paso Park,
Ben Ali, Swanston Estates, Arden Fair, Point West,

DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING HISTORY
Cal Expo, Campus Commons, and Sierra Oaks), office
and retail space, and approximately 600 acres of
parks and open spaces, including Del Paso Regional
Park, Haggin Oaks Golf Course, and University Park.

A small portion in this part of the city is also serviced by Fulton El Camino Recreation and Park District. The
area has the second-largest proportional concentration of multifamily housing units out of any Community Plan Area after Central City. It has abundant access to neighborhood services and open spaces,
but also has Sacramento’s highest retail vacancy rate.

MAJOR TRANSPORTATION ROUTES
Business 80 is the largest roadway connecting Arden
Arcade to the greater Sacramento area and beyond.

Auburn Boulevard is a major north/south corridor
and follows the City limits on the north. Major east/
west corridors include State Route 160, Arden Way,
El Camino Avenue, and Marconi Avenue. Arterials
provide automobile and bike access through the Plan
Area and connect residents to surrounding communities and neighborhoods. The SacRT Blue Line light rail extends along the western edge of Arden Arcade,
parallel to the Union Pacific Railroad line, which is
still used to transport freight.

COMMUNITY VISION
key destinations via tree-lined streets. This ease of accessibility and the economic success of new businesses, professional services, and local retail—including grocery stores and farmers’ markets—have reinvigorated community spaces that are safe, clean, and inviting, while complementing regional attractions like Cal Expo and Arden Fair Mall. Residents take pride in how
clean the streets and public spaces are, and how little crime there is in Arden Arcade. Robust public services, including additional resources for people with mental
health illnesses and after-school programs and youth
mentorships for area youth, help to foster a compassionate community atmosphere. Energetic residents enjoy Arden Arcade’s many parks and open space areas, including Del Paso Regional Park and American River access points, with fresh, clean air, and expansive tree canopy.

IN 2040, Arden Arcade is a clean and safe community with bustling businesses and job centers, well-connected transportation systems, and charming residential areas. The neighborhoods of Arden Arcade reflect the diversity of their residents, with a wide range of
affordable and varied housing options that support
a vibrant, welcoming community. Partially located within the city of Sacramento, Arden Arcade has seamless connectivity and integration with the small
businesses, street grid, and recreational amenities of
the adjacent unincorporated County. Existing assets
and new investments in infrastructure and transportation have helped to reinforce the prosperity of the mixed-use corridor along Arden Way. Pedestrian- and
bicycle-friendly designs are integrated into an efficient network with the SacRT Blue Line light rail and frequent bus service, ensuring that travelers of all ages and abilities are connected to essential resources and
Community Plans: Arden Arcade | 11-AA-5
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
The following local planning issues and opportunities are synthesized from community input gathered over the course of the planning process, which included an in-person Community Plan Area meeting in August 2019, a virtual open house conducted in
October 2020, community-led “meetings in a box,”
and ongoing correspondence from individuals and
neighborhood organizations as well as citywide outreach activities. The colored dots next to each paragraph and shown in the legend below indicate where readers can find policies and information related to
each community issue and opportunity.

Connectivity - Convenient, connected, and
enjoyable transportation options that make it easier
to get around without a car in Arden Arcade are major
community priorities, and providing community members with more options to get around can help to reduce high traffic volumes currently experienced in
areas near the highway and Arden Fair Mall. Shady,
tree-lined corridors and more connected walking and
cycling paths can make walking and biking feel more
comfortable in the community. Residents also identified a need for more frequent transit service as well as more accessible transit options for seniors and people
with disabilities. In previous planning efforts, residents have identified strong desire to overcome barriers to
walking and biking that are currently created by the
heavy rail tracks.

Public Services - Increased public services,
including additional resources for people with mental
health illnesses, after-school programs and youth
mentorships, and a culture and arts venue (such as
a community theater) present opportunities to promote community cohesion and support vulnerable populations.

Community Safety - Reducing crimes such
as graffiti and littering and improving the feeling of
safety are priorities in Arden Arcade. There have also
been several fire-related incidences in the community;
improving emergency response and public safety are
important issues for residents.

Neighborhood Beautification - While Arden
Arcade is home to several natural open space
resources, including the American River Parkway,
Community Issues and Opportunities
Housing Quality and Affordability - Around
50 percent of housing units in Arden Arcade are single-unit homes, and home sale and rental prices are, on average, higher in this area than in Sacramento as
a whole. There are opportunities for more of a variety
of different housing types, including affordable housing. In some areas of Arden Arcade, there are many people experiencing homelessness, and some residents want to ensure that proposed shelters provide important social services. New housing should recognize a wide spectrum of need across income ranges.

Some existing low-income housing is out of compliance with codes and requires upgrades.

Expanded Tree Canopy - Arden Arcade has
comparatively lower tree canopy coverage than other
areas and high vulnerability to extreme heat, as well
as some of the highest rates of asthma hospitalizations in Sacramento, presenting opportunities for targeted policies to improve the health and well-being of residents through expanded tree planting.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
many residents felt these resources could be better
utilized. Some noted that trash and graffiti along highways and in open spaces inhibits use and comfort in public spaces. Increased maintenance, community
clean up, neighborhood beautification, and better
access could increase usability of the American River
Parkway and other local parks and open spaces, as
well as foster community spaces as comfortable gathering places.

Parks Access and Amenities - Residents
noted that regular maintenance including clean up
and safety inspections of green spaces, parks, and
recreation facilities, planting more trees, and use of
drought-tolerant, native plants could contribute to
the sustainability and quality of life in the community.

Some areas lack access to parks within an easy walking distance, particularly the portion of Arden Arcade within the City limits. Del Paso Regional Park is widely considered an underutilized resource due to its location near the City boundary and barriers to access.

Some residents would like to cultivate parks as vibrant destinations by allowing community events at parks
and attracting commercial uses such as restaurants
around the edges of parks.

Community Identity - Split between incorporated and unincorporated areas, Arden Arcade nonetheless has a strong sense of identity. Many residents of the unincorporated area of Arden Arcade are strongly in favor of maintaining the current City
boundaries, keeping the majority of the Arden Arcade
Community Plan Area unincorporated.

LAND USE AND PLACEMAKING
In Part 2 of the General Plan, the Land Use and
Placemaking Element includes a land use diagram
as well as maps that show maximum floor area ratio
(FAR), minimum FAR, and minimum density standards across the city. Together, these maps provide direction for land use and development intensities
citywide. Development in Arden Arcade is subject to
these citywide development standards, and closeups of these land use designations and development intensities for the Arden Arcade Community Plan
Area are provided in Maps CP-AA-2 through CP-AA-5
for ease of reference.

These standards and designations seek to encourage the production of more affordable housing in Arden Arcade; facilitate vibrant mixed-use development in vacant and underutilized lots; and support retail vitality and more frequent, reliable transit
with higher intensities and more homes near transit
stations.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Land use designations establish the type of future
development envisioned throughout the Planning
Area. In Arden Arcade, mixed-use areas are clustered near light rail to incentivize multi-unit housing in proximity to transit to support more frequent/
reliable service. Maximum allowed development
intensities, shown as FAR allowed on each parcel,
control the size and bulk of development but allow
wider ranges of housing types to be built throughout
Arden Arcade. Higher-intensity development is clustered along important transit corridors, with lower intensities planned for existing neighborhoods and
further from transit.

The Housing Element, published under separate
cover, contains numerous policies and programs
addressing homelessness, ensuring affordable
housing choices for people of all ages and income
levels, and preventing displacement, which are
important community priorities. See the Land Use
and Placemaking Element for land use designations
that describe allowed and desired uses, as well as
for goals, policies, and actions that promote the
development of a wider variety of affordable housing types, and strengthening Sacramento’s sense of place.

MOBILITY
Improving transportation safety, transit reliability,
and bicycling and walking connectivity are major priorities for the Arden Arcade community. Segments of both Arden Way and Howe Avenue are Vision
Zero Top 10 Corridors, which are the streets in the
city with the highest numbers of fatal and serious
crashes involving people walking, bicycling, or driving. The segment on Arden Way is in a disadvantaged community.

Improvements and interventions identified in the
Mobility Element, Pedestrian Master Plan, Bicycle
Master Plan, and Transportation Priorities Plan will
help to address gaps in walking and bicycling networks, including connections to transit. Enacting these policies present opportunities to enhance
safety, support public health and recreation, and
create attractive ways to travel that are healthy,
lower cost, and climate-friendly.

Additional policies around transportation safety,
transit frequency and reliability, and pedestrian and
bicycle infrastructure can be found in the Mobility
Element.

PARK ACCESS
Arden Arcade within the City limits, has one natural habitat area, one regional park, one golf course, and one neighborhood park for a total of 600 acres
of recreational space. The majority of this parkland
is within the Del Paso Regional Park located on the
edge of the Community Plan Area and is less accessible to residents. There are also 21 non-City owned parks within the unincorporated area of the County,
mostly operated and maintained by Fulton El Camino
Recreation and Park District. There are significant
portions of residential areas which do not have a
park within easy walking distance, particularly for
lower income residents in the north-west part of the
community plan area, which is in the City limits. Map
CP-AA-6 illustrates accessibility to parks within the
Community Plan Area. In some cases, lack of access
is due to a lack of nearby parks, and in others, it is
due to barriers such as Business Route 80; or a lack of infrastructure (i.e. missing sidewalks or crosswalks),
or a lack of available public transit. Addressing barriers to access where possible and creating new parks for underserved areas can help to improve park
access. Del Paso Regional Park, which many residents
consider an underutilized asset, could better serve
the community by improving pedestrian connections
and offering more nature-oriented programming.

Building on existing programs at Mira Loma High
School and expanding to partnerships with additional
area schools to further study Arcade Creek could
expand opportunities for area youth to interact
with the valuable nature area at Del Paso Regional
Park. Increasing partnership with Twin Rivers School
District to provide access to their schoolyards after
school hours would also help provide access to additional park space.

Additional policies addressing park maintenance,
programming, and access can be found in the Youth,
Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Element.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
the Sacramento River, and following the discovery of
gold in 1849, Sutter laid out a grid of streets extending from the bustling riverfront embarcadero and named the new town Sacramento. In 1879, Sacramento was established as the State Capitol, and a series of major floods and rebuilding processes as
well as the introduction of a streetcar line in the
1870s spurred rapid growth within and beyond the
Central City through the late nineteenth and first half of the twentieth century. Following WWII, physical
and economic decline in Downtown as well as a loss
in tax revenue due to booming suburban development in Sacramento’s further neighborhoods led the City to undertake redevelopment and urban renewal
efforts in the Central City. Urban renewal projects
such as the construction of Interstate 80 (I-80), I-5,
and the K Street Mall, as well the corresponding
demolition of the West End neighborhood and displacement of its residents (this history is described in more detail in the Environmental Justice Element,
and the accompanying report, “Race and Place in
Sacramento”), resulted in major changes to the Central City’s physical and social character. By the early 2000s, major zoning and land use regulations had
transformed the Central City into the bustling urban
downtown familiar to residents today.

Today, as a major regional employment center, the
Central City is home to approximately 35,500 residents and over 117,000 jobs, the majority of which are in government, professional and business services. As the State capital and urban core of Sacramento, the Central City has the highest concentration of office space and government jobs, as well as the most multi-family housing of any community
plan area in the city. The Central City houses 30 historic districts, including Old Sacramento Waterfront, which is a designated National Historic Landmark
District. Residents enjoy access to a robust transit
network, including the SacRT Blue, Gold, and Green
Lines, several bus routes, and the Sacramento Valley
Station, as well as pedestrian-oriented retail and
commercial areas, and tree-lined streets and alleys
built atop a historic grid. Small plazas, city parks, and waterfront areas such as Tiscornia Park and Sutter’s
Landing Park provide residents with a range of open
space and recreation opportunities.

In 2018, the City adopted the Central City Specific
Plan (CCSP), a policy document with a planning
horizon of twenty years that implements the General Plan, providing an overarching vision, as well as strategies and actions for catalyzing the development of a modern, inclusive, interconnected and mature urban center in the Central City with 10,000
new housing units. Other Specific Plans within the
Community Plan Area include the River District Specific Plan, the Railyards Specific Plan, and the West Broadway Specific Plan.

MAJOR TRANSPORTATION ROUTES
Regional access to and from the Central City is
provided by I‑5, I‑80, Highway 160, and Highway

99. The Central City street network is laid out in a
grid pattern with numbered streets running north/
south and lettered streets running east/west. Major
streets that connect the Central City with outlying
areas include 15th Street and 19th Street running
south; 16th Street and 21st Street running north
(to C Street); J Street running east; I Street running
west; and Capitol Avenue running east/west. In addition to these major streets, the I Street Bridge and Tower Bridge connect Sacramento with the City of
West Sacramento. The Central City is also the convergence of the Blue and Gold Line light rail tracks that connect Downtown with northeastern, eastern,
and southern Sacramento.
11-CC-4 | Community Plans: Central City
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

COMMUNITY VISION
IN 2040, the Central City is the vibrant urban core
of Sacramento, one of the most livable cities in the
United States. With tree-lined streets, thriving businesses, and a dynamic mix of historic and contemporary architecture, the Central City is a wonderful place to live and work. An array of housing choices in
both Downtown and Midtown cater to residents of all
backgrounds and income levels and allow people to
stay in the community their whole lives. Historic single-unit homes, duplexes, and triplexes co-exist with row houses, condos, apartment buildings, supportive
housing, and senior housing, fostering a thriving, diverse community. New and infill developments built around transit link the amenities and bustle of Downtown with the beauty of the Sacramento and American Rivers. Old Sacramento Waterfront continues to be a regional draw and offers both tourist-oriented
and community-centric shops and entertainment.

As the seat of government for California, the thousands of State employees who commute in to work from all
over the region can arrive comfortably on the light rail or the extensive bus network; many people employed in
the Central City also call the community home. Slower
driver speeds; car-free areas; and a variety of connected, convenient and frequent transit options—buses on dedicated lanes, light rail and commuter rail; protected bikeways; separated sidewalks; and well-managed car/
bike/scooter-sharing—are available to lessen driving
dependency and support the sustainability-forward, active lifestyle of the Central City residents. Music venues, theaters, art studios, and prominent murals showcase
Central City’s culture. Fresh, local foods are available from farmers’ markets, community gardens, and local
restaurants and cafés. The Central City’s abundant
housing, tree-lined streets, walking paths, and clean,
vibrant public parks combine to create unsurpassed
urban living, a welcoming blend of Sacramento’s rich
history and its dynamic future.

Community Plans: Central City | 11-CC-5
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Transit-Oriented Development - The Central City boasts the best levels of transit service in the city of Sacramento, presenting important opportunities for further transit-oriented development that will help the City achieve communitywide goals for sustainability, climate action, and economic resilience.

Relatively high land values make high density/intensity infill development more financially feasible; many community members would like to see more development intensity in Midtown, on the T Street corridor, on the east side of 12th Street, and near transit stations.

Preservation and Reuse - The Central City has
an array of beautiful historic districts and landmarks
that make an important contribution to sense of
place. Many residents are eager to maintain and preserve historic buildings and sites and are interested in adaptive reuse of historic buildings in instances
when the building’s original use becomes impractical or infeasible. Reuse of older buildings could provide cost-effective sites for important amenities
and services in a manner that enhances the existing
built environment and celebrates the city’s heritage.

The following local planning issues and opportunities are synthesized from community input gathered over the course of the planning process, which included an in-person Community Plan Area meeting
in August 2019, a virtual open house conducted in
October 2020, community-led “meetings in a box,”
and ongoing correspondence from individuals and
neighborhood organizations as well as citywide outreach activities. The colored dots next to each paragraph and shown in the legend below indicate where readers can find policies and information related to
each community issue and opportunity.

Some community members would also like to see
new development be designed to be compatible
with existing historic resources. Old Sacramento is
seen as an important asset for the city, and many
locals would like to see the district, which now caters mainly to tourists and visitors, have more community-centric attractions and amenities.

Housing - The Central City has the highest percentage of multi-unit housing out of any community plan area, but is experiencing ongoing gentrification,
with many low-income residents either already or in
the process of becoming priced out of the area, a top
concern for Central City residents. Special attention
should be made to ensure that residents can comfortably age in place and that persons of all backgrounds can thrive in a healthy environment without worrying about being priced out of the area. A wider
range of affordable housing options and tenant protections can help prevent displacement.

Active Transportation and Connectivity -
The Central City has a robust mix of land uses, and a
variety of mobility options that make it relatively easy to live and get around without a car. Many community members would like to build on these successes to further improve car-free options and multi-modal
connections to reduce the number of cars in the Central City; expand bicycling, walking and transit infrastructure, including bike parking, street lighting, shade trees, transit signage, and increased transit frequency; and increase bike- and scooter-share options. Many
residents expressed a vision for being “tailpipe free”
in 2040.

Community Issues and Opportunities
11-CC-6 | Community Plans: Central City
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Curbside Management - New mobility platforms, and shared mobility services are quickly arriving to Sacramento. As mobility, transportation, and delivery services develop and come online, the curb
will be impacted differently and competing interests regarding use of the curb is expected. Although emerging services including, Transportation Network
Company (TNC) rideshare companies, carshare, and
rideable services help people with getting around the
dense urban core of Sacramento, community members have expressed concerns with safe loading and unloading, and appropriate use of bike lanes and
sidewalks would improve safety and comfort, particularly in heavily trafficked areas within the Central City.

Transportation Safety - With so many
people walking, scooting, and bicycling in the Central City, transportation safety is a high priority for residents. 12th Street is one of Sacramento’s top 10
corridors in the city involving the highest numbers of
fatal and serious crashes involving people walking,
bicycling, or driving.

Arts and Neighborhood Beautification
- The Central City’s rich arts and cultural scene is
a point of pride for the community. It includes the
historic R Street District, home to the Warehouse
Artist Lofts as well as an array of theater companies including Celebration Arts, Capital Stage, Sacramento Theater Company and B Street Theatre. A burgeoning contemporary dance scene and many
live music venues present local and national talent,
while murals by local, national, and international artists adorn walls throughout the area. Museums and cultural treasures, like the Latino Center of Art and
Culture and Brazilian Center for Cultural Exchange,
contribute to the area’s cultural vitality. The City’s
Art in Public Places program boasts iconic sculptures
throughout the area. Implementation of the strategies and policies identified in the Creative Edge Plan will expand opportunities to integrate Sacramento’s
public art program into the planning, funding, and
design of capital improvement projects, cementing
the Central City’s identity as a regional cultural destination. Community members would also like to see improved maintenance of public facilities such as
parks, community gardens, restrooms, tree canopies,
and wayfinding signage to ensure that streetscapes
are vibrant and attractive, and that neighborhoods
will continue to be pleasant to both look at and live
in. It is becoming increasingly difficult for artists to find affordable creative space in the Central City.

Affordable and Attractive Retail - Central City
residents value their neighborhood shops, cafes, and
restaurants, particularly from local businesses that
cater primarily to residents. There is also a desire for more dense, walkable neighborhoods with mixeduse office and retail spaces like those along J Street bordering the Boulevard Park and Midtown neighborhoods. New goods and services located within neighborhoods that cater to healthy and active lifestyles, such as affordable retail, grocery, and restaurant options, are desirable to many community members.

Park Access and Amenities - Parks are critical to sense of place and a connection with nature in the Central City. Because the Central City is an
urban environment, available land is constrained;
therefore, creating new parks is difficult. Despite
this, there are creative opportunities for residents
to experience park space in privately owned public
spaces, such as rooftop patios and gardens, outdoor
dining converted from on-street parking spaces, and
activating alleys into small public places. Features
like these could ensure that even residents who are
not within easy walking distance of a park, such as in
the Newton Booth and Richmond Grove neighborhoods, would have access to park spaces and recreation areas. Residents would also like to see more consistent maintenance of existing parks, as well
as more litter receptacles and safe and clean public
restrooms in parks.

Community Plans: Central City | 11-CC-7
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Public Services and Facilities - Residents
emphasized the need for more support services for
mental health, substance abuse, and employment,
coupled with increased housing options for people
experiencing homelessness, and asked for increased
enforcement of unpermitted camping and loitering
throughout the Central City.

Environmental Justice and Hazardous Site
Remediation - Disadvantaged communities—areas
in California that most suffer from a combination
of economic, health, and environmental burdens
including poverty, high unemployment, air and water
pollution, presence of hazardous wastes, and high
incidence of asthma and heart disease—are located
throughout a large portion of the Central City. Additional housing resources, transit options, and accessibility considerations are of critical concern for these communities, as well as for seniors and people with
disabilities. Former industrial uses in the Railyards
district and other locations within the Central City
has left soil and water pollution that must be cleaned
up before development can occur so that no residents or tenants faces unhealthy living conditions.

The Railyards Specific Plan outlines goals and policies to ensure that public health, safety, and the environment are protected in that area. 11-CC-8 | Community Plans: Central City
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
plans, plus the Sacramento Valley Station Area Plan,
are implementation tools of the Central City Community Plan in addressing specific land use, placemaking, and economic development priorities. Collectively, these plans articulate a vision of the Central City—echoed in this community plan—as the urban
core of Sacramento that balances a revitalized riverfront; ample employment uses; cultural, historical, and tourist destinations; major sporting events; diverse and walkable neighborhoods with a variety of housing options available to a wide range of income levels and preferences; and an efficient, convenient, and climate-friendly transportation system connects riders to a mix of uses.

For a detailed explanation of land use designations,
refer to the Land Use and Placemaking Element of
the General Plan. For additional policies related to
housing affordability, homelessness, and gentrification, see the Housing Element. For specific plan policies and actions related to housing production and variety, as well as neighborhood-specific anti-displacement measures, see the CCSP.

LAND USE AND PLACEMAKING
In Part 2 of the General Plan, the Land Use and Placemaking Element includes a land use diagram as well as maps that show maximum floor area ratio (FAR),
minimum FAR, and minimum density standards
across the city. Together, these maps provide direction for land use and development intensities citywide. Development in the Central City area is subject to these citywide development standards, and closeups of these land use designations and development intensities for the Central City Community Plan Area
are provided in Maps CP-CC-2 through CP-CC-5 for
ease of reference.

Land use designations and development intensities,
as well as land use and urban design policies in the
CCSP and this General Plan, are regulatory tools that
are meant to encourage the type of mixed-use development patterns that community members would like to see, as well as to stimulate housing production near high-frequency transit, along commercial corridors, and near Downtown; foster walkable environments; and facilitate the production of a wider variety of housing at different price points, including affordable housing. Maximum allowed development
intensities, shown as a FAR allowed on each parcel,
control the size and bulk of development but allow
wider ranges of housing types to be built throughout the Central City. Higher intensity development is permitted throughout most of the Community
Plan Area, while maintaining lower intensities that
are in character with historic districts farther from
transit. Work by the local Property and Business
Improvement Districts (PBIDs) finance maintenance,
improvements, and programs that help to promote
local businesses and foster vibrant parks and mixeduse places.

Land Use policies in this Community Plan complement citywide policies in the Land Use and Placemaking Element and in the Housing Element meant to promote availability of a wider range of housing
types, improve housing affordability, and build in
anti-displacement measures. The Central City, Railyards, River District, and West Broadway specific Contextual Topic Areas

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

MOBILITY
Several roadway changes were already approved in
the CCSP, including the Broadway Complete Streets
project and the North 12th Street Complete Streets
project. Map CP-CC-6 shows the additional planned
roadway reallocations for the Central City Community Plan Area, which are street segments throughout the city that have been identified as places where excessive roadway capacity—in other words,
too many vehicle travel lanes—that could be repurposed as spaces to prioritize walking, bicycling, and transit use. These could take the form of improvements such as wider sidewalks, protected bike lanes, bulb-out transit stops, and bus-only lanes, and will
require further community outreach, study, and
roadway design.

Improvements and interventions identified in the
Mobility Element, CCSP, Pedestrian Master Plan,
Bicycle Master Plan, and the Transportation Priorities Plan will help to address gaps in walking and bicycling networks, including connections to transit
and use of emerging technologies such as scooters,
e-bikes, and other technologies.

In particular, the CCSP contains a number of policies
relating to connecting gaps in the bicycling network
with separated bikeways, improving traffic signage,
and connecting gaps in the sidewalk network while
enhancing pedestrian infrastructure. Additionally,
the CCSP mobility chapter outlines policies for promoting transit as the preferred mode of transportation within the Central City. Additional policies around electric vehicle charging, transportation
safety, transit frequency and reliability, curbside
management, and pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure can be found in the Mobility Element.

Enacting these policies present opportunities to
enhance safety, support public health and mobility,
and create attractive ways to travel that are healthy,
lower cost, and climate friendly.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

PARKS ACCESS
The Central City has 12 community parks, 11 neighborhood parks, three regional parks, and the Sacramento River Parkway, for a total of 310 acres of parks and open space. However, when it comes to
neighborhood serving parks there is still a need and
there are gaps in service provision in the southeast
corner of the Plan Area. Given the more intensive,
urban nature of the Central City, future parks in the
Plan Area may be smaller, more compact, and more
urban in character than parks in suburban portions
of the city. Several of the Central City’s most beloved parks and open spaces are managed by the State of
California, including Capitol Park, Old Sacramento
Historic Park, and Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park;
these resources contribute to parks access for Central City residents.

Residents in some neighborhoods, particularly the
Newton Booth and Richmond Grove neighborhoods,
lack park access within a 10-minute walk, as shown
in Map CP-CC-7. The CCSP identifies creative strategies to increase park access, despite the Central City’s limited land availability, which include creating small community gathering spaces such as tot lots,
parklets, and community gardens; and exploring
joint use agreements and partnerships with schools,
businesses, and institutions in the Central City.

Policies in this Community Plan complement citywide policies and actions in the Youth, Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Element, which includes policies to support equitable, accessible parks, and
maintenance, including within the Central City.

CC-LUP-5 Old Sacramento Access and Views. The
City shall collaborate with the State of
California, SacRT, and the Downtown
Sacramento Partnership to improve
arrival experiences into Old Sacramento,
particularly considering wayfinding and
arrival experience for those arriving by

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Community Plans: East Sacramento | 11-ES-1
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

COMMUNITY LOCATION
The East Sacramento Community Plan Area encompasses about seven square miles in the central-east part of the City of Sacramento. Located immediately
east of the Central City, four distinct neighborhoods
make up the Plan Area: East Sacramento, College/
Glen, the Sacramento State campus and environs,
and River Park. As shown on Map CP-ES-1, it is
located next to the Central City. The Plan Area is
bounded to the south by the Sacramento Regional
Transit (SacRT) Gold Line light rail tracks and Jackson Road, to the east and west by Alhambra Boulevard and Watt Avenue respectively, and to the north by the American River. The easternmost corner is
outside of City limits and falls within Sacramento
County’s jurisdiction. East Sacramento is characterized primarily by leafy older suburbs in the western portion, the California State University – Sacramento
(Sacramento State) campus in the center, and a mix
of light industrial, large commercial, and housing,
including student housing to the east. The southern
edge of the Planning Area, with the SacRT Gold Line
running through, has been the focus of significant
transit-oriented developments in recent years, with
hundreds of new units approved for construction in
proximity to the light rail stations. McKinley Park is
a major community focal point, with large trees, a
duck pond, and a famous Rose Garden. Walkable,
neighborhood-oriented retail corridors along Folsom
Boulevard and J Street are gathering places for local
families, with some of Sacramento’s most beloved
local shops. Other important landmarks in East Sacramento include the Mercy Medical Center, The Cannery, East Portal Park, Glen Hall Park, and East Lawn Children’s Park. During the winter holidays, the light
displays in the Fab Forties neighborhood draw visitors from all over the region.

DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING

HISTORY
East Sacramento is one of the oldest areas of Sacramento. Development began in the 1890s, as neighborhoods were built along a streetcar line (operational between 1870 and 1947) that connected the new outlying suburbs to the Downtown. Through
the 1920s, residential uses expanded eastward, converting once agricultural land into neighborhoods.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN Map CP-ES-1
East Sacramento Community Plan Area Boundary
Sacramento State, constructed in 1951, further
shaped the area’s economic and urban development,
and remains an important landmark in the community. Today, East Sacramento’s development is once again linked to transit, with major mixed-use projects planned around the 65th Street/University Light Rail Station and redevelopment of the Sacramento
Municipal Utility District (SMUD) corporation yard at
the 59th Street Light Rail Station, as well as opportunities to add more housing, retail, and office uses at the Power Inn Road Light Rail Station.

East Sacramento is home to approximately 32,600
residents and 22,200 jobs. Of the Plan Area’s 14,900
housing units, approximately 75 percent are single
unit and 25 percent are multi-unit, with student housing and multi-unit buildings located in the eastern portion of the Plan Area. Home purchase and rental
prices are relatively higher in East Sacramento than in the city of Sacramento as a whole. Employment is primarily in education and health, government, and professional and business services. While industrial sectors employ the least number of people, they are still Community Plans: East Sacramento | 11-ES-3
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
a significant source of jobs in the area. The community is home to a multitude of small businesses and restaurants, many of which are located along vibrant
commercial corridors, such as Folsom Boulevard and J
Street. The community enjoys access to the American
River Parkway and a mature tree canopy. East Sacramento has small, scattered parks and recreation areas including Crescent Park (0.40 acre), East Lawn Children’s Park (0.35 acre), East Portal Park (7.48 acres), Glenbrook Park (19.22 acres), Hall Park (8.19 acres),
Henschel Park (2.54 acres), Oki Park (14.27 acres), and River Park (3.0 acres).

MAJOR TRANSPORTATION ROUTES
Highway 50 and Business 80 are major freeways
connecting the East Sacramento area to the greater
Sacramento area and beyond. Connecting to these
freeways are several north/south arterials including Alhambra Boulevard, Howe Avenue, and Watt Avenue, which provide automobile and bike access
through the Planning Area and connect residents
to surrounding communities and neighborhoods.

Arterials such as Folsom Boulevard and Jackson
Highway provide east/west access from the area to
Sacramento County. Light rail transit facilities run
parallel to Highway 50 and Folsom Boulevard. The
Union Pacific heavy rail line runs northwest/southeast through the area and is used primarily to transport freight. 11-ES-4 | Community Plans: East Sacramento
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

COMMUNITY VISION
IN 2040, East Sacramento is an inclusive, diversity-driven place that blends the amenities of urban living with a deep sense of community. Family-friendly neighborhoods each have their own unique character,
and conscious planning efforts to address housing affordability have resulted in a wider variety of housing types for rent and for sale that are supportive of multi-generational living and the ability to comfortably age in place and enjoy East Sacramento at all stages of life. Conveniently located next to downtown, getting
around East Sacramento and other parts of the city
for daily tasks is quick, easy, and convenient. There
are reliable bus and light rail connections, ample electric vehicle charging stations, and continuous walking infrastructure with lush, tree-lined streets and public spaces. Getting to and from local institutions and job centers like Sacramento State and Mercy Medical
Center is seamless, and a continuous low-stress bike
network with plenty of secure bike parking connects
the community with the rest of Sacramento’s bikeways. Workers and students commuting into East Sacramento can take transit, walk, or bike with ease and comfort. Families walk, swim, and bird watch along
the American River Parkway, and East Sacramento’s
many beloved parks are active, well-maintained, and
full of mature trees. With good schools, comfortable
connections, walkable neighborhoods, and a verdant
urban forest, East Sacramento is a welcoming haven
with a unique feel and a high quality of life.

Community Plans: East Sacramento | 11-ES-5
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
an emphasis on improving access to stations, adding
secure bicycle parking, and enhancing intermodal
transit connections.

Sacramento State Connections. Bicycling improvements around Sacramento State, and the Hornet Shuttle connects the Sacramento State
campus to transit and to popular student housing
areas that provide more sustainable options for getting around, but the Sacramento State area remains less well-connected to bicycle, pedestrian, and transit infrastructure than the rest of the Community Plan Area. Many students, staff, and faculty members still find private vehicles the most convenient way to get to campus. There are opportunities to
expand convenient non-auto transportation options
to and from campus, such as shuttles that connect
travelers to campus from the light rail; to improve
walking and bicycling connections; and to discourage
driving to campus.

Transportation Safety. Street safety for all
users, including older adults, people with disabilities, and those who walk and bicycle, is a key priority for
East Sacramento community members. Some community members suggested traffic calming measures on east-west corridors, and adding safety improvements at intersections along high traffic corridors.

Bicycling Connections. East Sacramento is
home to many enthusiastic bicyclists, and its neighborhoods have some of the highest percentages of bicycle commuters in the city. While there have
been improvements in bicycling infrastructure such
as buffered bike lanes on segments of C Street and
Elvas Avenue, residents would like to see protected
bike lanes continued throughout the community to
create a network of more comfortable cycling. Connections could be improved along Folsom Boulevard, 65th Street, J Street, and roads near the Capital City Freeway, some of which have disconnected or
unbuffered bike lanes. Better crossings at intersections under the freeway, over the river, and across busy arterials could help create continuous bike
routes, better linking East Sacramento to the rest of
the city.

Integrating Transit-Oriented Development.

East Sacramento’s established neighborhoods are
well-loved by local residents and the 2040 General
Plan seeks to preserve and enhance the quality of life
that distinguishes them. In the eastern and southern
portions of the Plan Area near the light rail tracks,
however, underutilized industrial and commercial
properties present opportunities for transit-oriented mixed-use development, particularly along Folsom Boulevard, Alhambra Boulevard, and Elvas
Avenue. Residents would like to see development
that brings small, local businesses to the community
and takes advantage of synergies with Sacramento
State as well as East Sacramento’s excellent transit
connections.

Supporting Transit Use. East Sacramento is
one of Sacramento’s most walkable communities,
with relatively good sidewalk infrastructure and
beautiful tree-lined streets. The community is also
well served by transit. To better support transit use
and reduce the need for driving, residents suggested

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Railroad Crossings. Improved or additional
connections under or over the railroad tracks would
reduce barriers between the greater East Sacramento area and the River Park neighborhood. Some residents noted that additional bridges over rivers
could improve connections to the rest of the city.

Park Access and Amenities. Local parks such
as Oki Park, East Portal, and Glenbrook contribute
to the uniqueness and livability of East Sacramento.

Community members believe that these assets could
be improved with additional maintenance, public
facilities, shaded areas, and age-friendly amenities.

Some residents, particularly in the lower-income
southern neighborhoods of the Community Plan
Area, are not currently within easy walking distance
to a park. There are opportunities for creative ways
to increase park access, such as converting parking
areas into public parks and encouraging new residential developments to include small public parks onsite.

River Access and Amenities. The American
River is a valuable community asset that is overseen
by Sacramento County. With increased maintenance
of existing facilities, services, additional river access points, and more shaded gathering areas, it could be
an even greater asset to the East Sacramento Community Plan Area. The City is currently implementing the Two Rivers Trail in partnership with the County,
which will increase access along the river.

Housing Choice. East Sacramento is a desirable place to live, and home sale prices and rentals are comparatively higher than citywide averages.

During the outreach process, many community members expressed a desire to see their community be more inclusive and even more diverse with a wider
array of housing choices. While the best opportunities for new housing development are on vacant and underutilized parcels adjacent to light rail stops, residents acknowledged there may be opportunities
for small-scale multi-unit housing such as duplexes,
fourplexes, cottage courts, and garden apartments,
to help to respond to community needs by providing options for people to live in East Sacramento throughout different stages of life, from singles and
young families to older adults.

Community Plans: East Sacramento | 11-ES-7
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

LAND USE AND PLACEMAKING
and promote pedestrian activity. Maximum allowed
development intensities, which are shown as a FAR
allowed on each parcel, regulate the size and bulk of
development, but also allow wider ranges of housing
types that are more affordable for more people to
be built throughout East Sacramento. Lower intensities designed to mirror existing conditions apply to existing residential neighborhoods that are further
from transit. Many of the mixed-use designations
and higher-intensity allowances are applied in areas
with existing lower-intensity uses and large parking
lots to encourage more efficient utilization of land
with a mix of housing, commercial, and office development. Additionally, the Commercial Mixed-Use designation, applied in several of East Sacramento’s
beloved community-serving commercial areas, is
intended to preserve space for local and community-oriented businesses.

See the Land Use and Placemaking Element for land
use designations that describe allowable and desired
uses, as well as for goals, policies, and actions that
promote the development of affordable housing
choices for people of all ages and income levels. For
additional policies related to addressing local retail
conservation and enhancement, see the Economic
Development Element.

In Part 2 of the General Plan, the Land Use and
Placemaking Element includes a land use diagram as
well as maps that show maximum Floor Area Ratio
(FAR), minimum FAR, and minimum density standards across the city. Together, these maps provide direction for land use and development intensities
citywide. Development in East Sacramento is subject
to these citywide development standards, and closeups of these land use designations and development intensities for the East Sacramento Community Plan
Area are provided in Maps CP-ES-2 through CP-ES-5
for ease of reference.

Land use designations and allowed development
intensities are regulatory tools that can help foster
communitywide objectives such as transit-oriented
development, sustainable land use and transportation patterns, retail vitality, and complete neighborhoods with walking access to goods and services when applied in certain areas.

In East Sacramento, new mixed-use development
will be concentrated near SacRT Gold Line light rail
stations and the Sacramento State campus, where
the allowable development intensities in proximity to transit will incentivize a lively mix of multiunit housing, retail, and employment uses, as well as increase transit ridership, support retail vitality, Contextual Topic Areas

MOBILITY
East Sacramento enjoys access to the SacRT Gold Line,
and its older development patterns have resulted in
a walkable street grid within neighborhoods. Improving walking and bicycling connectivity between neighborhoods and to other destinations in the city, and improving transportation connections, transit reliability, and access to EV charging stations are major priorities for the East Sacramento community.

The portion of Howe Avenue within East Sacramento is designated as a Vision Zero Top 10 Corridor (streets in the city with the highest numbers of fatal and serious crashes involving pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists). Additional roadways in East Sacramento are part of the City’s High Injury Network, where most serious crashes take place most often, including H Street, J Street, Carlson Drive,
Folsom Boulevard, and Elvas Avenue. Roadway reallocations that would give more space to transit, or those walking and biking along Folsom Boulevard
and Elvas Avenue, were part of recent community
engagement and are already approved by City Council. Specific designs would be based on community feedback through significant public outreach. Map
CP-ES-6 shows the planned roadway reallocations
for the East Sacramento Community Plan Area,
street segments throughout the city that have been
identified as places where excessive roadway capacity—in other words, too many vehicle travel lanes— could be repurposed as spaces to prioritize walking,
bicycling, and transit use. These could take the form
of improvements such as wider sidewalks, protected
bike lanes, bulb-out transit stops, and bus-only lanes, and will require further community outreach, study,
and roadway design.

Priorities for filling gaps in the walking and bicycling networks—especially discontinuous sidewalks, bikeways, and direct connections to the 59th Street, Power Inn, and College Greens light rail stations
from surrounding neighborhoods, as well as from
the College/Glen neighborhood — have been identified in the Pedestrian Master Plan and the Bicycle Master Plan, and will help to achieve community
goals of better walking and biking connectivity and
successful transit-oriented development within East
Sacramento.

Sacramento State operates the Hornet Shuttle system,
with routes that connect students from campus to the
College/Glen neighborhood, the 65th Street/University Light Rail Station, and Arden Arcade.

Additional policies that address community priorities
pertaining to transportation safety, electric vehicle
infrastructure, transit frequency and reliability, and
pedestrian and bicycle amenities can be found in the
Mobility Element.

PARK ACCESS
East Sacramento has many beautiful and well-used
parks, including four community parks, nine neighborhood parks, and the Glenbrook River Access parkway for a total of 58 acres of green space. This
represents about 1.78 acres per thousand residents.

However, convenient access to nearby McKinley
Park, regional parks and parkways owned and operated by non-City entities generally provides excellent recreational opportunities for residents, particularly from the close proximity to the American River Parkway, which offers water access and trail
connections to the rest of the city, although access is limited for some residents by the freeway, and railroad tracks. There are also some residential areas in the River Park, East Sacramento, and College/Glen

Mobility
ES-M-1 Sacramento State Pedestrian Connections.

The City should advocate for Sacramento
State University to build protected
pedestrian and bicycle connections
through parking lots and school facilities
on the east side of campus that provide
direct paths to the center of campus.

ES-M-2 Sacramento State Transport. The City
should work with Sacramento State
University and SacRT to improve

routes.

Transit Village
The 65th Street/University Transit Village is envisioned as a Neighborhood/University Mixed-Use District which
provides a lively mix of housing types, retail and employment uses to increase transit ridership and pedestrian activity. 65th Street is envisioned as a pedestrian scale Main Street which connects the University to the surrounding neighborhood and the 65th Street transit station. The design of the Transit Village will emphasize more convenient pedestrian connections for shoppers,
employees and residents to the surrounding community, university, and station. In the future, the Transit Village is envisioned to continue its transition from an auto oriented commercial and industrial district to Transit Oriented Development. Financial and regulatory incentives will be provided to encourage development of transit
supportive and sustainable development.

The overall goal for the 65th Street/University Transit Village is to create a safe, lively mixed-use neighborhood that serves the University and the surrounding East Sacramento community. The following policies
Community Plans: East Sacramento | 11-ES-17
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

ES-YPRO-1 Improve Park Access. The City shall
explore opportunities to improve park
access for the disadvantaged College/
Glen neighborhood, such as identifying
a new park site or a strategy to improve
open space access, such as through
redevelopment of vacant lots, joint-use
agreements, or better connectivity to
existing parks.

ES-YPRO-2 Two Rivers Trail. The City shall continue
to collaborate with Sacramento County
to implement the Two Rivers Trail in the
American River Parkway.

ES-YPRO-3 River Amenities. The City shall collaborate
with the Sacramento County Regional
Parks Department to help ensure the
provision of more trash cans, picnic areas,

COMMUNITY LOCATION
The Fruitridge/Broadway Community Plan Area is
to the southeast of Central City, encompassing 28
square miles of land in both the City of Sacramento
and in unincorporated Sacramento County. As
shown in Map CP-FB-1, the Plan Area is bounded by
State Route 99 to the west; the Sacramento Regional
Transit (SacRT) Gold Line light rail tracks and Jackson Road to the north; Elk Grove, Florin Road, and South Watt Avenue to the east; and Calvine Road in
unincorporated Sacramento County to the south.

The incorporated part of the Plan Area covers more
than half of the total area (15 square miles) and terminates at the City Limit just north of Florin Road.

Notable landmarks and neighborhoods in the community include the UC Davis Medical Center, Tahoe Park, Granite Regional Park, Sacramento Center for
Innovation, and the Oak Park neighborhood.

DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING

HISTORY
Fruitridge/Broadway’s earliest development history is linked to Sacramento’s streetcar line, which ran from 1890 to 1943. Connected to Downtown by
streetcar, agricultural areas southeast of the Central City’s grid developed into residential “streetcar suburbs,” where commuters lived. These new suburbs, including Oak Park and Elmhurst, were developed in phases during the first half of the twentieth century. As private automobiles overtook streetcars
as the primary form of transportation, the development in Fruitridge/Broadway expanded further

Fruitridge/Broadway Community Plan Area Boundary
away from streetcar lines. By 1947, Sacramento’s
streetcars were removed, and most of the housing
and commercial development, including The Army
Depot (now the Depot Business Park) and Proctor
and Gamble, were auto-oriented. In the 1950s, the
construction of State Route 99 and Highway 50 further shaped the urban design of the community, separating neighborhoods and limiting access, such as between Oak Park and Central City. Today, Highway
99 marks the western edge of the Fruitridge/Broadway Community Plan Area.

The Community Plan Area contains seventeen residential neighborhoods, home to over 153,000 residents, 67,000 of whom live within the city of Sacramento. The area has approximately 42,000 jobs, the majority of which are in education and health; trade,
transportation, and utilities; and government. Of the
23,504 housing units within incorporated Fruitridge/
Broadway, 80 percent are single unit, and 15 percent are multi-unit, with relatively lower home sale and rental prices than the city of Sacramento as a
whole. Fruitridge/Broadway also hosts Sacramento’s
Community Plans: Fruitridge/Broadway | 11-FB-3
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
largest concentration of industrial space, including the 2,500-acre Florin-Perkins Industrial Area, Depot Business Park, and Granite Regional Office
Park; extensive auto-oriented retail and commercial space; and a variety of open spaces, including Granite Regional Park, McClatchy Park, and Tahoe
Park. The Community Plan Area is the future home
of Aggie Square, a planned innovation hub on the UC
Davis Sacramento Campus for which the first phase
of construction began in 2022.

The 65th Street/University Light Rail Station was the
focus of two transit village planning efforts. The 65th Street/University Transit Village Plan was adopted in
2002 and the South 65th Street (Transit Village) Area
Plan was adopted in 2004. The South 65th Street
(Transit Village) Area Plan fell within the boundaries of the Fruitridge/Broadway Community Plan. An overarching objective of these efforts has been to
foster transit-oriented development and create a
walkable, interconnected, neighborhood mixed-use
district, and enhance the visual quality of the neighborhood. The Fruitridge/Broadway Community Plan incorporates policy direction from these efforts. See
Appendix FB-A for South 65th Transit Village street
cross sections and figures.

In 2013, the City adopted the Sacramento Center
for Innovation Specific Plan (SCI SP). The SCI SP was
developed in partnership with Sacramento State
(CSUS), the Power Inn Alliance, and SMUD in an
effort to transform the SCI area from an industrial,
underutilized, eclectic mix of uses to a hub of innovative, employee-intensive and supportive uses that would take advantage of the area’s proximity to Sacramento State University.

MAJOR TRANSPORTATION ROUTES
Regional access is provided by Highway 50, State
Route 16, and State Route 99. Major thoroughfares
include Fruitridge Road, 47th Avenue/Elder Creek
Road, Florin Road, Stockton Boulevard, Florin Perkins/French Road, and 65th Street. The SacRT Gold Line is also an important mode of access to Downtown and the greater city, with stations in the north of the Plan Area at 39th Street, 48th Street, 59th
Street, 65th Street, and Power Inn Road. Stockton
and Broadway are also important transit corridors
with higher frequency bus service.
11-FB-4 | Community Plans: Fruitridge/Broadway
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

COMMUNITY VISION
IN 2040, Fruitridge/Broadway is a dynamic, family-friendly community where a range of economic opportunities contribute to a high quality of life. Fruitridge/Broadway is one of Sacramento’s major job centers, with thriving medical, research, and industrial areas that are connected seamlessly by light rail, high-quality bus routes, low-stress bikeways and comfortable walkways. The transportation system is efficient, safe, and accessible for travelers of all modes, with low-speed local streets that are easy to cross and pleasant to walk along. Broadway, Fruitridge Road,
and Stockton Boulevard are vibrant mixed-use corridors that are exciting both to visit and to live in. Other nodes with shops, restaurants, and gathering places
are embedded in Fruitridge/Broadway’s clean, treelined, walkable neighborhoods. Community-serving businesses like grocery stores and farm stands thrive
on a strong sense of identity in the area’s diverse neighborhoods, which integrate a wide range of affordable and inclusive housing options, including higher density development and smaller homes designed for residents at all stages of life. Anti-displacement measures ensure that residents can live in the community their whole lives. Parks and green spaces are within
easy walking and biking distance of many homes, and
community gardens, abundant fruit trees, and edible
landscapes bolster community health and bring neighbors together. Active engagement and citizen involvement ensure that all development is fundamentally community-oriented, fostering regionally-recognized
hubs of culture, innovation, and economic activity and
contributing to the prosperity and pride of Fruitridge/ Broadway.

Community Plans: Fruitridge/Broadway | 11-FB-5
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Transit-Oriented Infill Development The
Fruitridge/Broadway area has many well-established
residential neighborhoods, but vacant and underutilized commercial properties along several key commercial corridors—Broadway, Stockton Boulevard, and Fruitridge Road—present opportunities for infill
development. These corridors are already important
transit routes, and promoting a more intense mix of
housing, jobs, and commercial uses along them can
support more frequent, reliable transit service, help
foster walkable environments, and reduce the need
for driving. Residents also cited Depot Park, New
Brighton, Power Inn, 59th Street Station, and the 34th
Street and Broadway intersection as other potential
opportunities for transit-oriented redevelopment.

Housing Affordability and Displacement
Fruitridge/Broadway has some of the more affordable neighborhoods in Sacramento. Although average home sales prices and rental rates are lower in The following local planning issues and opportunities are synthesized from community input gathered over the course of the planning process, which included an in-person Community Plan Area meeting
in August 2019, a virtual open house conducted in
October 2020, community-led “meetings in a box,”
and ongoing correspondence from individuals and
neighborhood organizations as well as citywide outreach activities. The colored dots next to each paragraph and shown in the legend below indicate where readers can find policies and information related to
each community issue and opportunity.
than citywide averages, they are rising quickly, and
many residents are concerned about displacement as
a result of new development, particularly given that
many neighborhoods in Fruitridge/Broadway are at
risk of or are currently experiencing gentrification.

Homelessness is also an increasingly visible issue. A
critical challenge will be integrating new development
that can bring new jobs, housing options, and quality
of life improvements for area residents while maintaining the existing social fabric of the community and family-friendly character of Fruitridge/Broadway.

First Mile/Last Mile Connectivity - Although
Stockton Boulevard has some of the most frequent
bus service in the city and the Gold Line light rail
service is accessible from stations just north of Plan
Area, transit is still not readily accessible from all
neighborhoods of Fruitridge/Broadway. Residents
would like to see improved connectivity within the
Plan Area, including better walking and bicycling connections and “feeder” bus service to provide better access to schools, jobs, and other destinations, especially during peak commute hours. Residents also believe that transit service could be enhanced with
more signage, enclosures for bus stops, wheelchair
accessibility, and Park-and-Ride parking lots.

Transportation Safety - Fruitridge/Broadway
has two of Sacramento’s top five Vision Zero corridors, identified as having the highest numbers of fatal and serious crashes involving people walking,
bicycling, and driving: Broadway and Stockton Boulevard between Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and 13th Avenue and along South Stockton Boulevard between McMahon Drive and Patterson Way.

The City’s Vision Zero Top 5 Corridor Plan includes
planned improvements for these corridors. Residents
would also like to see improvements for those walking and bicycling near the 65th Expressway, Power Inn Light Rail Station, Granite Park, Broadway, Florin
Perkins Road, and 14th Avenue. Suggested improvements included slowing driver speeds, supporting walking and bicycling comfort and convenience, and
installing traffic calming measures.

Air Quality - Flanked by freeways and containing several major arterial roadways as well as industrial activities, a focus on air quality is a priority for residents. Residents of many census tracts in the
area experience elevated rates of asthma and cardiovascular disease. Citywide policies to reduce sources of air pollution and incorporate mitigation measures
into new projects are addressed in the Environmental Resources and Constraints Element. On a neighborhood level, identifying areas to plant trees and place electric vehicle chargers can address air quality impacts and provide co-benefits such as shade and
mobility options. There are opportunities for tree
planting at some large institutions, including the UC
Davis Medical Center and Sacramento County offices
near Granite Regional Park, where there are currently
large parking lots with limited shade near disadvantaged communities or near important transit routes.

Inclusive, Accessible Outreach - Fruitridge/
Broadway residents care about their neighborhoods and seek wider opportunities to participate in planning for new development and quality-of-life
improvements. Outreach should include input from
a variety of voices within the community, including
linguistically isolated residents, and draw clear links between the planning decisions and local quality-of-life considerations to encourage participation.

Park Access and Amenities - The variety of
parks in Fruitridge/Broadway, including Tahoe Park,
Granite Regional Park, Oak (Community Center) Park,
and C.K. McClatchy Park, are important contributors to
community identity and livability in Fruitridge/Broadway. Although not all residents live within a short walking and biking distance of a park, there are opportunities to improve park access by addressing barriers such as fencing and discontinuous sidewalks. Many
residents expressed desire for a linear park, potentially along Morrison Creek or the 21st Avenue median. Residents valued tree-shaded walking paths throughout the Community Plan Area where they can exercise, play, or
travel to work, school, or shopping areas. Residents also noted that existing community pool facilities are closed most of the year, presenting an opportunity to broaden
access to pools by expanding open hours.

Healthy Food Access - While Fruitridge/Broadway is relatively well-served by healthy food retailers, there are also corridors within the Plan Area that are oversaturated with unhealthy food retail such as
tobacco, fast food, and alcohol. Because unhealthy
foods are often less expensive than healthy foods,
residents who live in areas with higher concentrations
of fast food tend to have higher rates of obesity, diabetes, and other chronic disease. Fruitridge/Broadway community members would like future development
to include more healthy food retailers that are affordable to low-income residents, including grocery stores, Community Plans: Fruitridge/Broadway | 11-FB-7
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

LAND USE AND PLACEMAKING
In Part 2 of the General Plan, the Land Use and Placemaking Element includes a land use diagram as well as maps that show maximum floor area ratio (FAR),
minimum FAR, and minimum density standards
across the city. Together, these maps provide direction for land use and development intensities citywide. Development in the Fruitridge/Broadway area is subject to these citywide development standards,
and close-ups of these land use designations and
development intensities for the Fruitridge/Broadway
Community Plan Area are provided in Maps CP-FB-2
through CP-FB-5 for ease of reference.

These maps seek to promote mixed-use development along transit corridors and major thoroughfares in Fruitridge/Broadway to incentivize multi-unit housing and employment generating uses in proximity to transit and support more frequent/reliable service. In the eastern part of the Community Plan
Area, land use and FAR regulations seek to promote
a mix of employment-oriented uses, including industrial-sector growth within the Army Depot Special Planning District. New development is envisioned
primarily on vacant and infill sites such as large surface parking lots. In established residential neighborhoods, there are fewer sites available for development and the land use and intensity regulations allow for a range of smaller scale housing.

The Housing Element, published under separate
cover, contains policies and programs addressing
homelessness, ensuring affordable housing choices
for people of all ages and income levels, and preventing displacement, which are important community priorities. See the Land Use and Placemaking Element for land use designations that describe allowed uses, as well as for goals, policies, and actions that
promote the development of a wider variety of more
affordable housing types.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Sacramento Center for Innovation (SCI)
Specific Plan
The Sacramento Center for Innovation (SCI) Specific
Plan (SP) area is comprised of 240 acres, located
southeast of California State University Sacramento
and west of Granite Regional Park Development
Area. This area is a key potential infill and redevelopment area of the Fruitridge/Broadway Community Plan. Under the plan, the area is intended to be a well-designed center of innovation with retail,
office, flex space, research and development, and
advanced manufacturing that attracts innovative
businesses such as clean technology and bio-technology enterprises.

The following recommendations for the SCI SP
area have been shaped and supported by community involvement and input and are meant to guide future development toward further implementing
the vision and guiding principles of the 2040 General
Plan and Community Plan.
• In the SCI SP area, encourage the replacement
of low intensity industrial uses, commercial uses,
and vacant land with higher-intensity development that supports job creation and workforce development.
• In the SCI SP area, provide for large mixed-use
office and employment centers that include support retail and service uses, in addition to residential uses.

Implementation of the SCI specific plan will assist
the City in achieving the plan’s vision to transform
the area from an auto-oriented industrial area into
a multi-modal, intensive employment center that
maximizes opportunities for walking, bicycling, and
transit use.

South 65th Street Transit Village Plan
The South 65th Street Transit Village is envisioned
as a mixed-use district which provides direct bicycle
and pedestrian connections to the 65th Street Transit Center, CSUS, and the 65th Street/University Transit Village area (located north of Hwy 50), by way of improvements to Redding Avenue and 65th Street.

The South 65th Street Transit Village is less urban
in scale, less dense, and more residential than the
65th Street/University Transit Village. At the same
time, the design of the Transit Village will emphasize
more convenient pedestrian connections for shoppers, employees and residents to the surrounding community, university, and station. In the future,
the Transit Village is envisioned to transition from
an auto oriented commercial and industrial district
to Transit Oriented Development. Financial and regulatory incentives may be provided to encourage development of transit supportive and sustainable
development consistent with the Transit Village
Plan in a manner that avoids conflicts with existing
industrial and service-oriented uses. The South 65th
Street Transit Village Plan serves as the transit village plan for the South 65th Street Transit Village Development District. See Appendix FB-A for South 65th Transit Village street cross sections and figures.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

MOBILITY
Improving walking and bicycling connectivity, transportation safety, and transit access are major priorities for the Fruitridge/Broadway community.

Segments of Stockton Boulevard and Broadway are
Vision Zero Top 5 Corridors, which are streets in the
city with the highest numbers of fatal and serious
crashes involving people walking, bicycling, and driving. Vision Zero is guided by the recognition that speed is the most significant factor in traffic crashes, and therefore slowing driver speeds is critical to
improving roadway safety. The City of Sacramento’s
Vision Zero Top 5 Corridor Plan plans for roadway
redesigns on Stockton Boulevard and Broadway that
will lower driving speeds and improve walking and
bicycling infrastructure. Roadway reallocations on
the 65th Street Expressway and Fruitridge Road—
both of which are critical mobility connectors—may
provide for greater access for those walking, bicycling, or using transit. Traffic studies indicated that these streets may have excess vehicle capacity; further study of these proposed roadway reallocations will include opportunities for community input and
feedback on street design. Map CP-FB-6 shows the
planned roadway reallocations for the Fruitridge/
Broadway Community Plan Area, which are street
segments throughout the city that have been identified as places where excessive roadway capacity—in other words, too many vehicle travel lanes—could
be repurposed as spaces to prioritize walking, bicycling, and transit use. These could take the form of improvements such as wider sidewalks, protected
bike lanes, bulb-out transit stops, and bus-only lanes, and will require further community outreach, study,
and roadway design.

Improvements and interventions identified in the
Mobility Element, Pedestrian Master Plan, Bicycle
Master Plan, and the Transportation Priorities Plan
will help to address gaps in walking and bicycling
networks, including connections to transit, and help
achieve community goals for healthy, lower cost, and
air-quality-friendly ways of travel.

First mile/last mile mobility solutions—such as bike
share and e-bikes, scooters, and on-demand shuttle
services—can help people get to/from home, school,
parks, or work via transit more easily. Light rail stations at the northern edge of the Community Plan Area and high-frequency bus service along Stockton Boulevard present opportunities for improving walking, scooting, bicycling and transit connections,
including through expansions of SacRT’s SmaRT Ride
program, to these transit-rich areas.

Additional policies around transportation safety,
transit access, and pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure can be found in the Mobility Element. 11-FB-14 | Community Plans: Fruitridge/Broadway

Community Plans: Fruitridge/Broadway | 11-FB-15
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

PARK ACCESS
Fruitridge/Broadway has 10 community parks,
10 neighborhood parks, and 1 regional park for a
total of 218 acres. This represents about 3.2 acres
per thousand residents. There are also 26 non-city
owned parks in the unincorporated area, primarily
operated by the Southgate Recreation and Park District, available for Fruitridge/Broadway residents to use. As shown on Map CP-FB-7, however, there are
several residential areas, particularly in the Avondale, South Oak Park, Tahoe Park South, and Tallac Village
neighborhoods, that do not have a park within easy
walking distance of home. For some residents of the
Tahoe Park South neighborhood, for example, the
closest park is nearly a mile away. In other areas, barriers to access such as missing crosswalks or fencing prevent residents from accessing their neighborhood
green spaces. Removing barriers to access where
possible, improving pedestrian and bicycle connections to existing parks such as Granite Regional Park, and creating new parks in underserved areas can
help to increase park access. There is also an opportunity to create a linear parkway with shared paths along Morrison Creek, as well as the 21st Avenue
median. Collaborations with local Property Business
Improvement Districts, including Oak Park Business
Association, the Power Inn Alliance, and the Stockton
Boulevard Partnership, could help to activate parks
with sponsored programming, events, and festivals.

Policies in this Community Plan complement Citywide
policies and actions in the Youth, Parks, Recreation,
and Open Space Element, which includes policies to
improve park/community center access, programming, lighting, and maintenance, including within Fruitridge/Broadway.

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Community Policies
The policies below address issues specific to Fruitridge/Broadway and supplement citywide policies; many of the issues and opportunities of Fruitridge/
Broadway are common to many areas of Sacramento
and are addressed at the citywide level.

Land Use and Placemaking
FB-LUP-1 Transit-Supportive Uses. Through zoning
and other mechanisms, the City shall
promote uses along Stockton Boulevard,
Broadway, and the Gold Line light rail
that have daily or frequent patronage,
such as offices, hotels, shops, services, or
high-density residential development and
shall discourage auto-oriented and low
patronage uses that do not support transit
use.

FB-LUP-2 Stockton Boulevard Revitalization. The City
shall continue to develop and implement
the Stockton Boulevard Plan to extend
revitalization programs for Stockton
Boulevard to the area between Alhambra
Boulevard and Riza Avenue, with the
objectives of improving the quality of life
and economic opportunity for existing
residents and businesses along the corridor,
increasing community ownership, and
building local capacity.

FB-LUP-3 Light Industrial on Stockton Boulevard.

The City shall work with property and
business owners to gradually relocate
non-conforming light-industrial uses (such
as junk yards) from Stockton Boulevard to
appropriate industrial areas.

FB-LUP-4 Army Depot Special Planning District.

The City should entertain amendments
or updates to the Army Depot Special
Planning District (SPD) to allow additional
industrial and office development to align
with the goals of the General Plan.

FB-LUP-5 City/County Coordination. On an ongoing
basis, the City shall coordinate land use
and transportation planning initiatives
with Sacramento County efforts in
unincorporated parts of the Community
Plan Area to further mutual objectives
and optimize the use of public funds.

Coordination may involve participation
in technical advisory committees, sharing
details of pending development projects,
and aligning investments and infrastructure
improvements.

Historic and Cultural Resources
There are no historic and cultural resource policies specific to Fruitridge/Broadway that supplement the citywide General Plan policies. Please see the Historic and Cultural Resources Element in Part 2 of the General Plan.

Economic Development
FB-ED-1 Development Incentives. Recognizing
the importance of the Fruitridge/
Broadway area for Sacramento’s economic
development, the City shall provide
financing options and economic incentives
to support development projects in the
Community Plan Area. The Community
Development Department and Office of
Innovation and Economic Development
should coordinate to determine eligibility
of individual projects for available
programs and incentives.

FB-ED-2 Florins-Perkins Industrial Area. The City
shall promote the Florin-Perkins Industrial
Area for new businesses and industries,
particularly those which are labor-intensive
and provide job opportunities for local
residents.
11-FB-18 | Community Plans: Fruitridge/Broadway
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
FB-ED-3 Local Business Sponsorship. The City shall
support the Oak Park Business Association,
the Power Inn Alliance, and the Stockton
Boulevard Partnership in efforts to activate
their respective districts through events,
festivals, and activities, with an emphasis
on programming that reflects the cultural
diversity of the Sacramento community.

FB-ED-4 Stockton Boulevard Business Participation.

The City shall work with Stockton
Boulevard merchants and property owners
to identify and implement programs and
incentives to support business vitality and
economic sustainability along the corridor.

Environmental Resources and Constraints
FB-ERC-1 Tree Planting and Maintenance. The City
shall encourage anchor institutions such
as UC Davis and Sacramento County to
increase tree planting, drought-tolerant
landscaping, and other interventions to
improve air quality and reduce urban heat
island effect in Fruitridge/Broadway.

Environmental Justice
There are no environmental justice policies specific to Fruitridge/Broadway that supplement the citywide General Plan policies. Please see the Environmental Justice Element in Part 2 of the General Plan.

Mobility
FB-M-1 SmaRT Rides. The City should encourage
the Sacramento Regional Transit District
(SacRT) to explore the feasibility of
expanding the SmaRT Ride (microtransit)
service area to Fruitridge/Broadway.

FB-M-2 Pedestrian Environment. The City shall
ensure the pedestrian environment along
65th Street, 4th Avenue, Redding Avenue,
and San Joaquin Street east of Redding
Avenue is improved by providing separated
sidewalks, planters, street trees, onstreet parking where feasible, bike lanes, decorative lighting, and street crossing
improvements (including decorative and
textured paving).

Public Facilities and Safety
FB-PFS-1 Storm System Impacts. The City shall work
with project applicants in the South 65th
Street Transit Village area to identify storm
drainage options and practices that will
reduce impacts to the existing system.

Youth, Parks, Recreation, and Open Space
FB-YPRO-1 Granite Regional Park Expansion. The
City shall evaluate the expansion of
Granite Regional Park, including the
possible acquisition of the east basin or
the dedication of land in the west basin to
parkland.

FB-YPRO-2 Army Depot Park. The City shall further
develop Army Depot Park by developing
additional little league fields for active
recreation.

COMMUNITY LOCATION
The Greater Land Park Community Plan Area encompasses about 7 square miles of the city of Sacramento, just south of the Downtown, and is bounded by Broadway to the north, State Route 99 to the east,
35th Street to the south, and the Sacramento River
to the west. Map CP-LP-1 shows its location within
the city.

The Sacramento Regional Transit (SacRT) Blue Line
has four stops within Greater Land Park, providing
direct access to Downtown and to the rest of the city.

Major commercial corridors include Freeport Boulevard, Franklin Boulevard, 24th Street, and Sutterville Road; Broadway is just out of the Community Plan
Area to the north, but is easily accessible and often
associated with Greater Land Park.

William Land Park, home to Fairytale Town, Funderland, and the Sacramento Zoo are located at the center of the community. Other notable destinations
include Curtis Park, Sacramento City College, the
Sacramento Marina/Miller Regional Park, the Sacramento Historic City Cemetery, the Belle Cooledge Community Center and Library, and the Tower Theatre, which is adjacent to the Greater Land Park Community Plan Area.

DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING

HISTORY
Greater Land Park was established in the late 1840s
as a settlement called “Sutterville,” and grew in a
mosaic pattern as farms were converted into housing
developments. The community was originally connected to Downtown Sacramento via streetcars that GREATER LAND PARK.............. 11-LP-1

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN Map CP-LP-1
Greater Land Park Community Plan Area Boundary
ran from Downtown along both Riverside Boulevard
and 21st Street, operated by Pacific Gas & Electric
Company. In the 1920s, the construction of William
Land Park further increased the area’s appeal. William Land, an influential entrepreneur and former Mayor of Sacramento (1897–1901), donated money
for purchase and dedication of the park. In the 1940s,
the streetcar system was replaced by bus lines, and
the remainder of agricultural uses in the area were
converted to automobile-oriented housing developments. In the 1960s, the construction of Highway 50 and State Route 99 separated Greater Land Park from
nearby Midtown, Downtown, and Oak Park. In 2003,
SacRT opened the first phase of the Blue Line extension, bringing light rail service south from the 16th Street Station and reestablishing Greater Land Park’s
transit connection to Downtown.

Today, Greater Land Park is a community of approximately 33,800 residents and 17,500 jobs, the majority of which are in government, education, and health.

Some of the many notable businesses in the area
include Gunther’s Ice Cream, Vic’s Ice Cream, the
Japanese grocery store Oto’s Marketplace, New Helvetia and Fountainhead brewing companies, Lalo’s Restaurant, Marie’s Donuts, and Freeport Bakery.

The Greater Land Park Community Plan Area contains
nine residential neighborhoods, including Land Park,
Upper Land Park, Curtis Park, Carleton Tract, North
City Farms, Hollywood Park, Mangan Park, South
Land Park, and Little Pocket.

Community Plans: Greater Land Park | 11-LP-3
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN

COMMUNITY VISION
IN 2040, the Greater Land Park community is vibrant
and sustainable, with abundant cultural diversity that
enlivens and enriches everyday life. The area has a
thriving mix of commercial and professional services,
with vibrant retail centers that provide pleasant daytime and nighttime shopping and entertainment experiences. Local businesses—some of which have been serving the community for over a century—anchor
revitalized corridors bustling with housing, shops, and professional services that let residents work and complete daily errands close to home. The community’s housing stock reflects the diverse needs of residents,
with options for people at all stages of life, and the
built environment reflects the history and architectural diversity of Greater Land Park’s past. It is easy to get around without a car, thanks to frequent, reliable
light rail and bus service and an interconnected network for walking and bicycling that connects destinations in Greater Land Park with the Central City. Natural open spaces and a lush urban forest create ample recreational opportunities and support healthy living,
with native plants frequented by pollinators. There
are frequent connections from the neighborhoods to
the Sacramento River, where people walking can stroll
along the levee and commuters can bicycle along the
river to get to work. Community activities and citizen
involvement support and improve the charm of Greater Land Park’s neighborhoods, economic districts, and public spaces.

MAJOR TRANSPORTATION ROUTES
Regional access to and from Land Park is provided
by I‑5 on the west, Business 80/Highway 50 on the
north, and Highway 99 on the east. Several north/
south arterials connect to these freeways including
Riverside Boulevard, Land Park Drive, Freeport Boulevard, 12th Avenue, and Franklin Boulevard, which provide automobile and bike access through the Plan
Area and connect residents to surrounding communities and Downtown Sacramento. East/west arterials such as Fruitridge Road/Seamas Avenue, Sutterville
Road/12th Avenue, and Broadway provide access
from the Plan Area to surrounding communities and
neighborhoods. The Blue Line light rail line is located east of Freeport Boulevard and connects Land Park
with South Sacramento and the Central City.

On the border of the Central City and Greater Land Park Community Plan Areas is the iconic Tower Theater
11-LP-4 | Community Plans: Greater Land Park
SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
The following local planning issues and opportunities are synthesized from community input gathered over the course of the planning process, which included an in-person Community Plan Area meeting
in August 2019, a virtual open house conducted in
October 2020, community-led “meetings in a box,”
and ongoing correspondence from individuals and
neighborhood organizations as well as citywide outreach activities. The colored dots next to each paragraph and shown in the legend below indicate where readers can find policies and information related to
each community issue and opportunity.

and enhancement of historic landmarks, cultural
resources, and sense of place is a priority for the
community. Within the Greater Land Park Community Plan Area, Sacramento City College and Sacramento City Cemetery are adopted Historic Districts; the Tower District, West Curtis Oaks, and Broadway
and 17th Street have been the subject of historic
district surveys. These resources enrich the sense of
place and history within Greater Land Park. If new
historic districts are adopted following completion
of surveys, the City will update the Historic District
Plans to include the adopted districts, which would
include design standards that would be used to
determine the appropriateness of any development
project. The plans would also include standards and
guidelines for signage within these districts, another
community concern.

Housing - Approximately 83 percent of the
housing stock in Greater Land Park is single-unit residential, and average housing sales prices are higher than in most other areas. Residents expressed interest in seeing a wider variety of housing types in Greater Land Park, particularly smaller homes that
can be affordable by design and allow younger Sacramentans to stay in the area. Many community members wanted to see higher density housing allowed near transit routes and walkable neighborhood centers, including additional student housing in the Carleton Tract neighborhood, close to Sacramento City College. Addressing homelessness is another priority
for Greater Land Park community members; some
residents advocated for more shelter and permanent
housing options and additional support services for
people experiencing homelessness.

Enhancing Cherished Qualities - Community
members see Greater Land Park as one of Sacramento’s most desirable areas to live. Residents overwhelmingly want to maintain the positive qualities of Greater Land Park and to enhance the community
rather than change it.

Infill Development - Infill development
along Greater Land Park’s corridors – including Freeport Boulevard, Franklin Boulevard, Sutterville Road, and some areas south of Broadway - could connect
existing local businesses, and enhance Greater Land
Park’s sense of community. Capitalizing on proximity
to light rail and to Downtown with greater development intensity along corridors would support the City’s goals to reduce GHG emissions by encouraging walking, bicycling, and transit use. Infill redevelopment could also open up new opportunities for living in Greater Land Park and further support the
vitality of local businesses. Many residents see the

SACRAMENTO 2040 GENERAL PLAN
Mobility:
• Transit - Many areas of Greater Land Park
are within short walking distance to transit, provided by the Blue Line light rail and complemented by bus routes that run along
Franklin Boulevard, Freeport Boulevard, Land
Park Drive, Sutterville Road, and Broadway.

Increased frequency of bus service – especially in the east-west direction – better timed transfers, access to real-time transit
information, and accessibility for seniors and
people with disabilities, would help improve
the usability of the transit system for a wider
range of residents.
• Active Transportation - Many Greater Land
Park residents love to walk and bicycle, and
they see improvements to walking and bicycling infrastructure as a major community priority. Walking and bicycling improvements,
such as closing gaps in the walking and bicycling networks, planting more shading street trees along commercial corridors, installing
pedestrian-oriented street lighting and pedestrian bulb-outs, adding more crosswalks, and closing streets for events and festivals are
community priorities.
• Safety - Several streets in Greater Land Park
are designated as part of the High Injury Network identified as part of the City’s Vision Zero program, where the highest number of
severe and fatal crashes happen. These routes
include Freeport Boulevard, Franklin Boulevard, 24th Street, Sutterville Road, Fruitridge Road, Riverside Boulevard, 21st Street, and
5th Street. Reducing driver speeds, increasing
traffic enforcement, and adding traffic calming
interventions along Sutterville Road, Fruitridge
Road, Freeport Boulevard, Land Park Drive, and
24th Street are community priorities.
• Connectivity - Addressing the access issues
under I-5 between Greater Land Park’s neighborhoods and the Sacramento River Parkway is another important community goal; improvements to existing connections could
help to better tie neighborhoods and the river
together.

Environmental Justice - Upper Land Park, the
neighborhood in the northwestern portion of the
community, is designated as a Disadvantaged Community (DAC), with concentrations of vulnerable populations, including young children and individuals
living in poverty. These residents experience high air
pollution levels from nearby highways, high rates of
asthma, poor access to healthy food and parks, and
less tree canopy coverage than other neighborhoods.

Efforts to shift transportation trips away from cars
to walking, biking, and transit, increase access to
healthy food, and encourage tree planting at public
school sites can help to address these issues.

River Connections - Interstate 5 (I-5) cuts
most of Greater Land Park off from access to the
Sacramento River, with few crossing opportunities.

New and better connections to the river would open
up access to the Sacramento River Parkway and the
wider trail system, improving both recreational and
commuting opportunities, including at Sutterville
Road, Riverside Boulevard/25th Avenue, and Seamas
Avenue.
