City-Initiated Zoning Map Amendments, AP-24-0080 (RZ)
This is a public hearing on a city-initiated request for approval of five Zoning Map Amendments to implement new land use designations consistent with the 2040 General Plan Land Use Map, as required by Government Code Section 65860. The Pittsburg City Council adopted the 2040 General Plan and certified the Final Environmental Impact Report on May 6, 2024, under Resolution Nos. 24-14463 and 24-14464.
The City is proposing this initial set of Zoning Map Amendments while preparing a larger, comprehensive update to the Zoning Ordinance. The comprehensive update will include additional consistency amendments to fully implement the 2040 General Plan land use designations, policies and implementation actions.
The proposed Zoning Map Amendments do not indicate a decision by the City to approve or disapprove any specific development project. All pending and future projects located on proposed rezone sites will be required to process individual development applications with the Department of Community and Economic Development and undergo environmental review consistent with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Details specific to each proposed Zoning Map Amendment, including existing and proposed Zoning designations, parcel sizes, locations and map exhibits are available at the following location:
Environmental Determination: A Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) was prepared and certified in accordance with CEQA to evaluate the environmental impacts of approval and implementation of the 2040 General Plan.

An Addendum to the certified FEIR has been prepared in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 to address the proposed City-Initiated Zoning Map Amendments. The Addendum must be considered by the Planning Commission for Planning Application No. AP-24-0080 (RZ).
