The City of Sacramento is moving forward with the adoption of the River District
Specific Plan to establish policy direction and guidance on how the River District will develop in the future. The Specific Plan contemplates a cohesive district with
a mix of residential, commercial, industrial, public, and open space uses. Elements
of the Specific Plan include future street layout, bicycle and pedestrian circulation, opportunities for parks and open space, as well as proposed land uses and zoning.

Background

 The 773-acre River District Area proposes adopting policy documents to support a transit-oriented mixed use urban environment that would include 8,144 dwelling units, 3.956 million square feet of office, 854,000 square feet of retail/wholesale, 1.463 million square feet light industrial, and 3,044 hotel units.  The vision for the River District is that of an eclectic mix of uses that will evolve from a primarily light-industrial, low-intensity commercial district, to that of a series of distinctive walkable neighborhoods within a district that is contiguous to the American River and serves as the northern gateway into the Central City. The land is divided into approximately 422 separate parcels held by over 200 property owners. The District is currently home to 386 residential units, approximately 5.07 million square feet of industrial uses, 384,000 square feet of retail/wholesalers and 1.312 million square feet of office.
