Palmdale Housing Opportunity Project

Housing Opportunity in Palmdale

The City of Palmdale and other local agencies are exploring opportunities to facilitate a shovel ready housing development for approximately 13 acres of land owned by both the City and Palmdale School District, with the goal of accelerating housing production and addressing local housing needs. The project site includes 45 parcels and is generally located at East Avenue R-12 and 27^th Street East in Palmdale.

Next Steps

The public input we have received will be considered by the City and project team to develop a preferred scenario before advancing to environmental review and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis.

There will be additional opportunities for input as the environmental process moves forward. The draft environmental documents are anticipated to be available for public review this summer, with public hearings to follow in Fall 2023. After the City Council approves the site plan, the City will determine the next steps, such as developer selection, design, and groundbreaking schedule.
